Time now for the O'Reilly update. Message of the day on this Monday. I am worried about something going on in America. I want to share it with you. It's called tribalism. So if you look at the world map, there are many places where tribalism has ruined entire countries. Africa is the best example. Very difficult for people to get organized over there and develop efficient governments when everybody is fighting among themselves and there is no hope of detente that goes on in Africa every day in many, many countries. Well, tribalism has come to America. So we're living in an age of political hatred. And Donald Trump is the centerpiece of that right now. But let's face it, Barack Obama, Joe Biden, they got their share of hate. So did Bush the Younger. Now, however, reasonable conversations are declining because of the media. The media spurs tribalism because they make money off of it. All you got to do is look at the cable TV industry. Two of them, CNN and msnbc, cater to the hate Trump people. One of them, Fox, loves Trump. All three are marketing love and hate that divides people. And tribalism is taking root in America. It is not good. Each person, each issue should stand on its own with independent thought. And I'd like you to think about that. I'm Bill O'Reilly. I approve the message by writing it. You can reach me bill@billo riley.com bill@billoriley.com name in town if you wish to opine now, let's go to the mail. Michael Hawkins, Orlando, Florida. Please educate me who exactly pays the tariffs? And does the money go to the US treasury? And can it be used to pay down our debt? Yes, it goes to Treasury. Yes, it can be used to pay down a debt. So the when someone sends something to the United States, the company sending it, they pay the tariff. So it goes right to the Treasury. Glenn Gruber, Half Moon Bay, California. One of my favorite towns, Windy, but Half Moon Bay is a good town, right on the Pacific Ocean. If Trump can make tariff negotiations work for both China and the USA should put more effort into improving relationships between our two countries. Okay, I think that's fair. If we can get a Dayton on trade, maybe we just, you know, lessen the tensions. That'd be good. I'm with you, Gregory. One of your best columns is the column on Biden and the people who stabbed him in the back. All right. At 2. Oh, Barack is the name of the column on Bill o'reilly.com it's free. Anybody can read it. So that's what Gregory is referring to. One of your best columns. You bring clarity and insight that cannot be found elsewhere. I put a lot of work into these things, so I'm glad you liked it. Sharon Goodberry, Tucson, Arizona. I've watched you from the very beginning at Fox News. I know about your hatred for cliches. My question what are people supposed to say in place of cliches? Well, how about some thoughtful words and phrases? How about thinking about it? Okay, look, when you use at the end of the day, it's just gibberish, okay? You can easily say in the long run or this might happen momentarily. You can speak like an educated person instead of falling back on. Well, we'll see. Well, you know, come on, you know, think. People don't think when they speak. That's the problem. In a moment, something you might not know.

Now the O'Reilly update brings you something you might not know. 107 years ago today, a German fighter pilot named Manfred von Richthofen was shot down over France. It was during World War I, and Manfred will be remembered as one of the greatest aviators ever. Here is the story behind the red Baron. Born 1892, young Manfred spent his youth hunting deer in the German countryside. He enrolled in military school at the age of 11. Beginning of World War I, von Richthofen's cavalry regiment saw action on both the Eastern and Western fronts. He received the Iron Cross for Courage under fire. Rich Dafen then requested a transfer to the Imperial Air Service. By early 1917, he had shot down 16 enemy planes and was Germany's most feared pilot. Later that year, he had his plane painted blood red, earning him the nickname the Red Baron. He became a beloved figure in Germany, where he was lavish with military decorations and featured numerous news articles and postcards. To mark his growing kill, Count von Richthofen commissioned a Berlin jeweler to make a collection of small silver cups bearing the date of each of his aerial victories. The Red Baron's final flight took place April 21, 1918, over northern France. As a pilot swooped low in pursuit of an enemy fighter, he came under attack from an Australian machine gunner. During the exchange, the Baron was shot in the chest and died before his plane crashed into the ground. He was 25 years old. And here's something else you might not know. The Red Baron's body was returned to Germany seven years later. He was buried with full military honors in April 1925. But Manfred's service was not over. During the next world war, Nazi dictator Adolf Hitler used footage of the Red Baron as propaganda to promote his air campaign against Britain and France. Back after this.
