After spending four days in Washington, D.C. i am glad I am home on Long Island. It's not that Washington is such a bad town. It's got good restaurants, it's fairly easy to navigate with the National Guard and the FBI running around. It's no longer dangerous and it's got a lot of things to see. But the culture is not conducive to the O'Reilly method. How about that? The O'Reilly method. Why? Too many meetings. They meet about everything. They want to discuss everything to death. And when you deal with the bureaucracy in D.C. as I have the last four days, you got to be patient. I'm not a patient man. I go in, I say, here's what we'd like to do or not do or whatever it may be, and let's make a decision. Oh, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. Get a five guys, a couple of gals, and they're ruminating and maybe we do this. It drives me nuts and I think it drives President Trump nuts, too. But I don't know that I'm not there every day in the Oval Office. I am at O'Reilly headquarters. And we do look at the data. We do take opposing points of view into context. But we make fast decisions, unlike our nation's capital. I'm Bill O'Reilly. I approve the message by writing it. You can reach me billorilly.com, billorilly.com, name in town if you wish to opine. Now, let's go to the mail. Tom Beach, Durham, North Carolina, Watching Talking Points Memo what are your thoughts? That both Biden and Blinken are trying to take some of the credit for the peace deal between Israel and Palestine. They tried to get the hostages out, and at the end, very end of the Biden administration, they made some strides. They cooperated with the incoming president, Donald Trump. So I don't, I don't have any beef there. But they couldn't get them out, could they? KATHLEEN CONCIERGE MEMBER I agree with Pete Hegseth, and if people knew the actual reason for his ruling, you, O'Reilly, would support his decision. Media cannot be trusted in telling half a story he's running. The Pentagon is a military institution, not a friend of the media. If you're down with Hegseth, then you don't believe in freedom of the press, KATHLEEN simple as that. I'm not scolding you. There are a lot of Americans that don't believe in freedom of the press, but you don't believe in it. You don't have the government censoring what you hear and read what they do in China. ETHAN Bill, you're right. Pete Igseth is acting like a fascist. Now, I didn't call him a fascist. I did not. But totalitarianism, first step, neutralize the press. Bruce Cattle, Rio Del California Bill, you said the economy is a critical factor in midterm elections, that if high prices don't come down, it'll be bad for the Republicans. How is it they can be held accountable for the cost of things? Because the voters don't care about politics. They care about their wallet. If the party in power isn't bringing prices down, when people are suffering, they're going to vote for the other party. That's it. Most people are not ideological. They're not. So that is something that Trump administration got pay attention to. In a moment, something you might not know. Ever heard of Gold Belly?

The roster featured Babe Ruth, Lou Gehrig and an undercover spy. Here is the story. In the early 1930s, a relationship between the United States and the Empire of Japan was deteriorating quickly. In order to ease tension, both nations agreed to a friendly tournament between the American All Stars and their Japanese counterparts. In October 1934, more than 500,000 residents lined the streets of Tokyo to welcome the American players. Unknown to the emperor, the goodwill mission also carried a secret agent. His name was Mo Berg. The catcher from New York City began his major league career with the Chicago White Sox. Off the field, he was a graduate of Princeton university who spoke seven languages, including Japanese. On November 29, 1934, as the rest of his team were playing at a stadium five miles north of Tokyo, Mo Berg quietly traveled to St. Luke's Hospital, the tallest building in the city. Allegedly, he went there to visit the sick daughter of an American diplomat. But he secretly accessed the rooftop. Mo then retrieved a smuggled movie camera from his equipment bag. From his high point, Mo Berg filmed downtown Tokyo, its warehouse district, weapons factories and the inner Harbor. In 1942, that footage was used by the US military to plan bombing raids against the Japanese capital. Moberg continued to work as an American spy throughout the war. The All Star died after falling in his home in 1972. He was 70 years old. And here's something else you might not know. Moberg's efforts against the Japanese were formally recognized by President Harry Truman. He awarded the former spy the Medal of freedom in 1946. Back after this. Let's face it, the US economy is under stress, national debt rising, trade war shaking the markets. And meanwhile, China is dumping the the dollar and stockpiling gold.
