Thank you, bill. It's Thursday, March 13, 2025. Here's what's happening today in America. Deportation update, government shutdown, Rosie self deports and mom finally found. That's all coming up. Then Bill's going to be here with your message of the day. But first, ICE has arrested over 32,000 illegal aliens in the first 50 days, 14,000 convicted criminals, 9,800 illegals who have pending criminal charges, 1,155 suspected gang members and 44 foreign fugitives. If you do the math, that leaves 8,718. What they call immigration violators may have heard this before as collateral damage, meaning people who are not necessarily the target but got swept up in an enforcement action. Homan said this would happen. He told these local jurisdictions, if you don't hand people over to ICE when they're in prison, then we're going to go into neighborhoods and we may get other people in the process. The acting ICE director said secretary Noem and I are changing the culture of ICE to one of action and accountability. The House voted for the continuing resolution to fund the government as it is until September. Now the Democrats in the Senate hold the cards because it needs 60 votes. In the Senate, there's only 53 Republicans, so they need seven Democrats. Senator Tim Kaine, Democrat from Virginia, said Democrats had nothing to do with this bill and we want an opportunity to get an amendment vote or two. So that's what we're insisting on, to vote for cloture if the government is not funded. Clearly this would be the Democrats fault. It's a simple continuing resolution. Virtually nothing has changed on government spending from now until September. I gotta give some credit to Rosie O'Donnell, a celebrity who said they would move if Trump won the presidency and she actually did. Of all the countries in the world, she moved to Ireland. She said it's been heartbreaking to see what's happening politically. It's hard for me personally as well. It's just interesting to me that out of all the countries in the world, she chose a country that's the size of Maine, the population of Oregon, and one of the richest countries in all of Europe and not diverse. A reporter asked the prime minister of Ireland who was in the White House yesterday, what you think about Rosie odonna moving to Ireland. The prime minister did not know who she was and Trump looked at him and said, do you know you have Rosie O'Donnell? Do you know who she is now? You're better off not knowing. A 41 year old mother of three fell asleep driving home. She veered off the road in a ditch, landed under a bridge. She had serious injuries to her legs and wrist and her phone was dead. She could hear cars driving on the bridge above her, but no one could hear her scream. She used a sweatshirt that she was able to dip into the water of a ditch and suck out the water. The car crashed on a Thursday. On Tuesday, she said she gave up hope. But she was found by a man operating equipment for a drainage and excavation company that was doing work off the road and spotted her car out of the corner of his eye. Mom is recovering well. I'm Mike Slater from the podcast Politics by faith. Bill O'Reilly has your message of the day. Next.
