Day next, like a bull in a china shop, Donald Trump came in to drain the swamp in Washington, D.C. but with his bowl bold reform and rejuvenation agenda comes so many legal questions nationwide. Injunctions, are they constitutional? What's the deal with birthright citizenship? What about the administrative state? Can he actually clean the deep state and end the politicization of the federal bureaucracy? I'm Josh Hammer, host of America on Trial with Josh Hammer.

Bill O'Reilly (4:31)

Time now for the O'Reilly update. Message of the day. On this Friday, Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene from Georgia is doing a good thing by trying to stop taxpayer funds from going to PBS and npr. Those organizations are committed to promoting a liberal point of view, so why should non liberals have to pay for that? But Ms. Greene ruins her credibility by venting inappropriately at anyone who disagrees with her. Yesterday, she insulted a reporter from Britain's Sky News Agency, telling her to go back to her country because no one cares what she the reporter thinks. Not good. The Sky News reporter didn't attack the congresswoman, nor did she behave unprofessionally. The videotape of the incident proves it. Full disclosure, my news operation has been treated disrespectfully by Ms. Greene. So she is not well thought of here, but we report on her fairly. Our assessment, the woman lacks discipline and her zealotry reflects poorly on her district in Georgia. She's essentially Jasmine Crockett with blonde hair. Now we apologize on behalf of all journalists to the reporter from Sky News. Ms. Green is the exception, not the norm in the USA. I'm Bill O'Reilly. I approve the message by writing it. You can reach me bill o'reilly.com bill@billoreilly.com name in town if you wish to opine. All right. Brand new YouTube commentary on our free YouTube channel, YouTube.com Bill O'Reilly we're looking at Marjorie Taylor Greene, who I told you about, and Jasmine Crockett. She's not related to Davy Crockett, who was killed at the Alamo, but she is a congresswoman from Texas. I'm going to get into why these people do what they do. All right. That's on our YouTube commentary. Let's go to the mail, Carol, Concierge, remember. Thank you, Carol. There were several Democratic Congress people who went in front of the camera to demand to know if Secretary Hegseth was incompetent or drunk. As a layperson whose work with recovering alcoholics, the behavior of these congresspeople is deplorable. You're right. That was so bad that Moulton out in Pennsylvan up in Massachusetts, DeWitt, Trump's team should be beaten up a bit. But I'd rather have this signal fiasco than any of the COP5 Democratic policy initiatives. You know, you can't evaluate problems like that, DeWitt. You got to solve the problem. And hopefully the Trump administration has. Jeff Ellis, Dallas, Texas, I'm not buying the story about the reporter getting on the email thread with all the top government officials by mistake. Are you? O'Reilly? Yes, I am. Think it was a mistake, but I could be wrong. But I'm not going to go into conspiracy land until there's evidence that I am wrong. George King, Hillsdale, Michigan, where's the investigation into Goldberg for holding classified information and then publishing it wasn't classified information. Couldn't have been. It was a discussion. Now, after the discussion, when it's transcribed, then it could classify it. But at the time it happened, it wasn't classified. There's nothing you can do to Goldberg. But as I said, he should be interviewed by the FBI to find out how this happened. In a moment, something you might not know.

Now, the O'Reilly update brings you something you might not know. 46 years ago today, a nuclear disaster took place in southeast Pennsylvania. The incident will go down as one of the worst man made accidents in US History. Here is the story of Three Mile Island. The nuclear plant was built in 1974 on a sandbar in the Susquehanna river, just 10 miles downstream from Harrisburg, Pennsylvania. At 4am on March 28, 1979, a broken pressure valve failed to contain radioactive cooling water. Left alone, the automatic safety measures would have prevented a bigger crisis. However, the human operators misread the information. Panicked, people in a control room shut down the emergency protocols. One hour later, the nuclear core had reached 4,000 degrees, just 1,000 shy of a total meltdown like the one that occurred in Chernobyl. As the plant operators struggled to understand what was happening, the contaminated water was releasing radioactive gases throughout the plant. At 8am Word of the accident spread. The plant's parent company, Metropolitan Edison, tried to downplay the crisis. Soon, inspectors detected dangerous levels of radiation in the surrounding towns. One million residents were advised to stay indoors, close their windows, turn off air conditioning. 100,000 fled to safe precincts while dozens of workers suffered illness related to the meltdown. No one directly died from the incident, but the fallout from Three Mile was more than radiation. The accident eroded the public's faith in nuclear energy. The federal government halted construction of new plants. And here's something else you might not know. Though Three Mile island has been closed for years, the facility is set to reopen in 2028. Microsoft recently signed a 20 year lease with the state of Pennsylvania. The energy generated will power the company's artificial intelligence data centers. We'll be right back.

Hey, I'm Mike Slater. I have a podcast called Politics by Faith. We have a very simple mission. We take the news of the day and we filter it through a biblical worldview. So here's the big story of the day. What does the Bible say about it and how can we apply it? It's amazing. There's nothing new under the sun. The Bible has something to say about everything that's going on today. So basically, we thump the Bible over on Politics by Faith. I think we ought to keep MAGA going. And I think the way to take it beyond just a political victory into a true rebuilding and awakening and revival in America is to make sure that this is all grounded in biblical principles. And that's what we do on the podcast Politics by Faith. And you can subscribe to Politics by Faith wherever you're listening to the show right now.
