Thank you, Bill. It is Tuesday, December 16, 2025. Here's this happening today in America. Victims identified, son arrested, attack thwarted and Biden's terrorists. It's all coming up and Bill's gonna be here with your message of the day. But first, the two victims at the Brown University shooting have been identified. 19 year old Ella Cook was a devoted Christian and vice president of the school's College Republicans chapter. She was from Birmingham, Alabama, and was a parishioner of Catholic Church of the Advent. A Brown University professor said the murderer yelled something. We probably all know what he yelled, but we'll get that confirmed pretty soon here surely. And then killed two people and injured nine others. The other victim who was killed was a Uzbekistan national. He was at school to become a neurosurgeon. Director Rob Reiner and his wife were killed in their Los Angeles home on Sunday. Their son Nick Reiner has been arrested for murder. He's 32. He had his first stint in rehab at 15. He's been back 17 times. He's been homeless multiple times. Nick and his dad did a movie promotion tour recently for a movie called Being Charlie Mo, which was inspired by their family's experience with addiction. Recent pictures of the Reiner family. Everyone looks well and healthy. He does not. The LA Times is reporting that he got into an argument with his parents at Conan o' Brien's Christmas party on Saturday night. This is a message from FBI Director Cash Patel. He said, over the weekend, the FBI disrupted a credible imminent terrorist threat and arrested four individuals connected to the Los Angeles area. The subjects self identified as members of a radical offshoot of the Turtle Island Liberation Front. This is an extremist group motivated by pro Palestinian, anti law enforcement and anti government ideology. They were allegedly planning a coordinated IED bombing attack on New Year's Eve targeting five separate locations across Los Angeles. Turtle island, by the way, the Turtle Island Liberation Front. Turtle island is what woke white people think that Indians called America before the white man came and renamed it America. So in solidarity to the anti colonizing movement, they call themselves the Turtle Island Liberation Front. The office of the Director of National Intelligence revealed that Joe Biden's mass migration agenda welcomed 18,000 known or suspected terrorists into the United States in just four years. This report was summarized by the director Joe Kent, who said, quote, these are individuals who under normal circumstances would never be allowed to enter our country because of their ties to jihadist groups. Yet the Biden administration not only let them into the country, but in many cases facilitated their entry into the country. I'm Mike Slater. I have a podcast called Politics by Faith. The great Bill O'Reilly has your message of the day next.

Do you think it's possible the media could pause the Trump bashing during the last two weeks of the year? Could that ever happen? Just pack it away over Christmas and New Year's. I don't think it's going to happen. What would TV news and talk shows do without the president? What would Democrats say? The answer is not much. For his opposition, criticizing Donald Trump is like crack cocaine. They literally cannot stop doing it. This week's Saturday Night Live once again open with James Austin Johnson imitating President Trump. Johnson is a brilliant impersonator, but the bit was tedious. We've seen it over and over. SNL simply doesn't know what to do anymore, so it repeats itself, hoping to please the bubble people who cannot get enough. Trump mocking. So we all need a break from this. There are many other targets SNL could open with Putin throwing his advisors out of windows. Or Congressman Omar saying those who criticize Somalis of stealing a billion dollars are racist. Or Chuck Schumer suggesting softer treatment for drug cartels. You go, Chuck. Saturday night live is 51 years old. I'd like the show to age gracefully. It's not overdoing. Trump is now a tired cliche. Stow it for a while. I'm Bill O'Reilly. I approve the message by writing it. You can reach me billorily.com, billoriley.com name in town if you wish to Opine. Let's go to the mail. We got Eric Byland, Redwood City, California. So Riley column on the American press with Walter Cronkite. Pictured Walter with me. Hit it out of the park. If Broadcast News engaged viewers with half the wit and erudition that you provide, we'd all be glued to our sets every night. Erudition. Word of the day like good word. The column is on billoriley.com it's free. I hope you read it. Thank you, Eric, for the kind words. Stephen is a concierge member on the message board. The American media is an evil institution. Generally speaking, we have freedom of the press in this country and they choose to lie when they have the freedom to speak the truth. A lot of them do. A lot of them do. Money may do it for money. Brett Concierge member and the concierge membership is a very powerful Christmas and Hanukkah gift. Very powerful. It's an insurance policy goes wrong. We will help you. Brett says CNN is a reporting. It's rehearsing a script written by elites who profit from division. Can't argue. Ronald Question Is Internet news any better than TV news? No, not because Internet news. Almost every site has an agenda except for us. All we want to do is tell you the truth. Robert it's depressing to think that there are intelligent adults who either believe Rachel Maddow is fair or hate Trump to the point they don't care. I do mention Rachel Maddow in this column. I don't want to pick on her, but she won an award for being an objective journalist. I mean. And the award was given by the University of Southern California. Are you kidding me? Read the column on billoriley.com in a moment. Something you might not know. Have you heard of Gold Belly?

Fifteen years ago tonight, a famous broadcaster signed off for the last time. His final program entered a six decade career that featured more than 60,000 interviews. Here is the story of Larry King. Born Lawrence Zeger In 1933, young Larry spent his childhood in Brownsville, Brooklyn. He began his career in 1957 delivering the news in Miami as a rising star. Larry's manager suggested he change his name. According to the executive, Zeger was, quote, too German, too Jewish and not suitable for show business. So the two settled on King. After seeing a newspaper ad for King's wholesale liquor store in 1978, the broadcaster launched the Larry King Show, a nightly coast to coast radio program featuring interviews with local celebrities. Larry King Live debuted on CNN in 1985. Show hosted a wide range of guests from politicians to UFO people to psychics. Unlike most interviews, King had a direct, non confrontational style. His reputation for asking easy questions made him attractive to figures who wanted to state their positions while avoiding being challenged. In 2010, Larry King announced his retirement. On December 16, King said goodbye.

In January 2021, Larry King died from complications related to Covid. He was 87 years old. And here's something else you might not know. Larry King Live was the most popular primetime news program for more than a decade. He lost that title in the first quarter of 2001 to a program named the O'Reilly Factor. Back in a moment.
