Thank you, Bill. It is Tuesday, January 27, 2026. Here's what's happening today in America. Holman coming in, major social media lawsuit, an RNC convention and the final game is set. It's all coming up. And Bill's gonna be here with your message of the day. But first, latest with Minneapolis. The president had a phone conversation with the governor of Minnesota, Tim Walls. The president said that Walls called him to discuss working together with respect to Minnesota. It was a very good call and we actually seem to be on a similar wavelength, the president said. I'm sending Tom Holman to Minnesota tonight. He has not been involved in that area, but knows and likes many of the people there. Tom is tough but fair and will report directly to me. Holman will be managing ICE operations on the ground to continue arresting the worst of the worst criminal illegal aliens. The normal chain of command here is Kristen, Kristi Noem and Greg Bevino overseeing ICE operations. Trump also said, I just had a very good telephone conversation with Mayor Jacob Fry of Minneapolis. Lots of progress is being made. The vice president said this level of engineered chaos is unique to Minneapolis. It's the direct consequence of far left agitators working with local authorities. A major trial just got underway in California Superior Court in Los Angeles. Mark Zuckerberg's meta, China's TikTok and Google's YouTube facing their first courtroom trial this week over allegations that their platforms contributed to a youth mental health crisis through their addictive design features. The case involves a 19 year old California woman who alleges that she developed an addiction to these platforms at a young age due to their attention grabbing design features. This addiction contributed to her depression and suicidal thoughts. This trial is the first time these tech companies are required to defend themselves over allegation court at least over allegations of harm caused by their products. The CEO of Meta, Mark Zuckerberg, is expected to testify in the trial. The Republican National Committee adopted an amendment that will allow them to hold a midterm convention for the first time ever. The goal here is to defy history, meaning nearly every single midterm election. The party in the White House loses a ton of seats in the midterm election for Congress. So the RNC chair said we need to do some things that are a little bit different than normal. Only four times in the last one hundred and fifty years has the incumbent party been successful in the midterms. This first ever midterm convention. Trump, the headliner of it all is going to be in July or August before big voting day in November. The super bowl has been set. The New England Patriots and Seattle Seahawks. Seattle began the season with 90 to 1 odds to make it to the final game. Their point differential this season was plus 191. The Patriots were also long shots. The last two seasons, the Patriots were 4 and 13. This year, 14 and 3. The big game is not this Sunday, but the next Sunday, February 8th in San Francisco. 6:30 Eastern kickoff on NBC. The great Pill O'Reilly has your message of the day next.

Time now for the O'Reilly update. Message of the day on this Tuesday. Way too many politics in the ice. Minneapolis disaster. Now the Senate Democrats say they will not vote to fund ice, which could shut down a government again by the end of this month. Obviously, this hurts all of us. As usual, politicians simply will not accept the truth of the situation. Minnesota authorities are in full rebellion against federal law. That is a crime and there's no justification for it. The American people elected Donald Trump to enforce immigration statutes. If Minnesota doesn't like it, tough states should be fiscally punished for practicing anarchy. Meantime, there is too much defiance about public safety from Homeland Security. Yes, your job is enforcement, but defusing potential life death situations should be a priority. Leadership clearly knows federal agents are in danger from disturbed people. In Minnesota, adjustments have to be made. However, it is absolutely true that the man shot dead on Saturday actually sought his own demise. Sane people don't bring loaded guns and then confront law enforcement officials. The man's family should be respected and his loss mourned, but he himself orchestrated his his own demise. And I hate to say that finally, President Trump should begin supervising these events in Minnesota directly. He doesn't have to back down, but reasonable dialogue should be put on the table. I'm Bill O'Reilly. I approve the message by writing it. You can reach me billoriley.com, bill@billorilly.com, name in town if you wish to opine. Now, let's go to the mail. Ray Cartonia, Charleston, South Carolina. Hey, Bill Sorry about your illness. Hope you back. I am back. Thank you, Ray. It is home for me as a fellow baby boomer trying to live the smart life. We clear thinkers rely on your objective reporting to provide us reliable information. If there are hall of fame for journalists, you'd be elected on the first ballot. I think I appreciate that it is very important that that you spread the word about the no spin news because I am not going to deceive you ever. And I'm going to do this as long as I can do it. Chenag Stringfellow, what a name. Shenog Stringfellow. What's happening in Minnesota right now feels deeply troubling. Level of violence and tension we are seeing is not okay, does not reflect the kind of country I want my child to grow up in. People being shot and killed should never become something we accept or normalize. I want to be clear. I support law enforcement, firmly believe in a rule of law. Police officers have a difficult job, but most serve with integrity. Supporting police, however, should not mean ignoring situations where things escalate to deadly outcomes. Okay, I have no problem with that. We're not undermining here. We are imposing discipline and honesty. That is what we are doing. We are not blaming. And I, I got to tell you, to say the things I said about the man who was shot down, I didn't want to do that, but it's the truth. Keith Brooks, Chapel Hill, North Carolina. When customs apprehends a criminal alien, do they go to prison or back to Mexico? Number one, not Mexico. It's everywhere. When Homeland security detains you, you are deported about 90% of the time. Unless there's an act of criminal violent warrant out, we have to go through the judicial process in a moment. Something you might not know. Now the O'Reilly update brings you something you might not know. 81 years ago today, Soviet troops liberated the Auschwitz concentration camp in southern Poland. Of the 1 million people dispatched to that complex, just a few thousand survived. Here is the story. On January 27, 1945, a band of Russian soldiers discovered the gates of what they thought was an abandoned factory. They soon found 50,000 pairs of shoes, 10 foot piles of human hair, hundreds of oil drums filled with gold teeth and reading glasses. Cautiously, 7,000 survivors inside the camp emerged. They had been abandoned without food, water and heat for nearly three weeks. Prisoners included Hitler's political enemies, Communists, homosexuals, mentally disabled, but mostly Jewish people. The average life expectancy at auschwitz less than 11 days. If you were over 50, about an hour. The liberation exposed the world to the horrors of the Holocaust. At its height, the Third Reich operated 42,000 confinement ghettos and concentration camps. The network spanned from France to Russia, jailing more than 1 million innocent people. At any given time, between 15 to 20 million human beings were murdered or imprisoned at these sites, the largest crime in human history. History. And here's something else you might not know. During the liberation of Auschwitz and other death camps, survivors spontaneously began singing Hatikvava, a 19th century poem about the Jewish people's eventual return to Jerusalem. The title in Hebrew means the hope. Today, the song is the national anthem for the state of Israel. The Holocaust is not to be denied, and any human being who does that should be condemned. This is not a debatable issue. For more facts about the horrors of Hitler's Third Reich, please check out my best selling books, Killing Patton, Killing the SS and Confronting Evil. Back in a moment. Thank you for listening to the O'Reilly update. I am Bill O'Reilly. No spin, just facts. And always looking out for you.
