Thank you, Bill. It is Tuesday, March 18, 2025. Here's what's happening today in America. Deported to El Salvador, Schumer postpones tour, Dems in bad shape and delivery driver gets a payday. It's all coming up. Then Bill's going to be here with your message of the day. But first, the president of El Salvador wrote on X today, the first 238 members of the Venezuelan criminal organization Trend arrived in our country. They were immediately transferred to sicat, the terrorism confinement center, for a period of one year, renewable. This is a very big prison. It has a capacity of 40,000 people. The biggest prison in America is 6,500 people. The administration is using the authority to send illegal aliens to this prison with the Alien enemies Act of 1798. This is one of four acts that were passed in that year grouped together called the Alien and Sedition Acts. This one particular act of the four is the only one still on the books. It's been used three times since it was first passed the War of 1812, World War I and World War II. Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer is postponing his book tour due to security concerns after backlash for supporting the Republican Party's continuing resolution. Schumer said, we always knew there'd be disagreements, but I felt, and those who voted for me felt that as bad as the CR was, I know a lot of members didn't like the cr. The government shutdown would be far worse. Chuck Schumer is the leader of the Democrats in the Senate. There was a CNN poll and asked who do you think the leader of the Democratic Party is? 10% said AOC, 9% said Kamala, 8% said Bernie Sanders, 6% said Hakeem Jeffries, Barack Obama 4% Jasmine Crockett 4% Gavin Newsom 2 Nancy Pelosi 2 Tim Walls 1. Ooh, Dems are in a bad place right now. CNN poll, your view of the Democratic Party, only 29% said favorable. NBC News, even lower, 27%. That's the lowest that these polls have ever been since they ever existed. 1990. And the good news for the Republicans is 77% of Democrats think the Democrats aren't fighting Trump enough, which I believe will only make Trump stronger. And the Democrats look more like they did during the State of the Union the other day. They haven't learned anything yet. This is a true story. A jury in California ordered Starbucks to pay a delivery driver who was severely burned by tea from an improperly secured lid after it spilled on his groin from the pain, mental anguish, loss of enjoyment of life, humiliation and inconvenience, grief, disfigurement, physical impairment, anxiety and emotional distress. The jury awarded him $50 million. I'm Mike Slater from the podcast Politics by faith. Bill O'Reilly with your message of the day. Next.

Time now for the O'Reilly update. Message of the day on this Tuesday. I'm already thinking about the Democrats chances in 2028. Two progressives are seeking the nomination as of now, California Governor Gavin Newsom and former Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel. First Newsom. He recently launched a podcast presenting himself as a moderate. He sat down with Trump adviser Charlie Kirk, radio conservative Michael Savage and former Trump adviser Steve Bannon. During his chat with Kirk, Governor Newsom admitted that biological men competing in women's sports was not fair. Predictably, far left people attacked Newsom. Get used to it. Then there's Rahm Emanuel, impressive resume. Congressman, senior adviser to President Clinton, Barack Obama's chief of staff, mayor of Chicago and ambassador to Japan under Joe Biden. Last week, left wing website Politico claimed Rahm Emanuel was positioning himself to run for president. He did not deny the report. But here's the truth. The midterms in general election aren't about any Democratic candidates. There about Donald Trump. If the president succeeds, Republicans will keep control of Congress and VP Vance will have a clear path to the White House. If Donald Trump fails, it's anyone's ballgame. Sorry for the cliche.

Yesterday I went to my favorite bookstore and purchased the United States of Trump. When will your next book, confronting evil be available? September 9th. Publisher just accepted the book. That's always good. They really don't have any choice. They've already paid me for a lot of it. So they accepted it. They like it. This is really a powerful book. So that'll be out September 9th. All right, let's go to the store and get you some not woke here. So if I see President Trump, I'm going to give him a not woke hat. Maybe I'll give him a polo on the golf course, too. That's probably there. I am in a hat and I said if President Trump wears an out woke hat, boy, I think those sales. Don't forget the Three Americans Live Tour. I'd like to see you on March 30th.
