Thank you, Bill. It is Tuesday, October 28, 2025. Here's what's happening today in America. Pam Bondi, bounty big win in Argentina. Hurricane Melissa hits and one in eight Americans are on these. That's all coming up. And Bill's gonna be here with your message of the day. But first, A man in St. Paul, Minnesota is accused of posting on TikTok a video offering a bounty for the murder of our attorney General Pam Bondi. The suspect, Tyler Maxson Avalos put up an image of a bounty poster with her picture. Wanted pam bondi reward $45,000 dead or alive, preferably dead. The image had a sniper dot on her forehead and the suspect wrote, when they don't serve us, then what? This person has a long criminal history, including convictions for stalking and domestic violence. His TikTok account had anarchist symbols and links to anti government websites. A big win for the president of Argentina in his reelection. Javier Milei winning a mandate for free market overhauls in his country. Stocks rose 22% in Argentina. Wonderful to have a conservative ally in our hemisphere. Big win for Argentina. Also for America having a major ideological ally helping push back Chinese influence. His party has a veto proof majority in both chambers. So Malay can move forward with major reforms of up next on the list are labor and tax reforms. Hurricane Melissa is a Category 5 storm, winds of 175 mph. It hit Jamaica starting last night, moving very slowly. Tons of rain to Jamaica. They're forecasting 15 to 30 inches of rain, like feet of rain, up to 40 inches in some areas. Could you imagine Haiti looking at 4 to 6 inches of rain? Cuba 10 to 20 inches. Storm surges of 13ft above sea level. There will be massive infrastructure damage, long lasting power outages. The prime minister of Jamaica said that the infrastructure within this region in no way could withstand this storm tonight. The storm is going to hit Cuba by Wednesday afternoon. It will hit the Bahamas, 4 to 8 inches of rain expected there. They expect tens of thousands of people to be displaced for a very long period of time. There are 42 million Americans on food stamps. One in eight Americans on food stamps. That's amazing. And because of the government shutdown, most of these people will not see their food stamps on November 1st. The USDA said they will not use emergency funds. They wrote on the website. Senate Democrats have now voted 12 times to not fund the food stamp program. Bottom line, the well is run dry at this time there will be no benefits issued on November 1st. We are approaching an inflection point for the Senate Democrats. They can continue to hold out for health care for illegal aliens and gender mutilation procedures or reopen the government so babies, mothers and the most vulnerable among us can receive critical nutrition assistance. I'm Mike Slider from the podcast Politics by faith. Bill O'Reilly has your message of the day next.

While the Trump despisers continue to obsess over the White House renovations and various provocative statements the president makes every hour on the hour, Perhaps the most important week in Mr. Trump's presidency is unfolding. He is in Asia. He will visit with Chinese President Xi. And that is the key to President Trump's administrative success. Now Chinese leadership cultivates controversy, throwing its weight around a variety of negative ways. China enables the war criminal Putin to continue his insane Ukrainian invasion. Beijing terrorizes Taiwan for little gain. The Chinese are building a large militaristic infrastructure despite having no external threats to speak of. Beijing allows the precursors of fentanyl to be made on Chinese soil. It arms Iran. It denies due process to its 1.5 billion citizens. These are not nice boys. But somehow President Trump might be able to tamp a lot of this down with a trade deal that benefits China. When I traveled to Beijing last May and spoke to the Politburo, they signaled they wanted a deal. Now the negotiations begin. Already there's been a signal they may be successful. That is something we all should pray for. I'm Bill O'Reilly. I approve the message by writing it. You can reach me billoriley.com, billoriley.com, name in town. If you wish to opine now, let's go to the mail. Peggy Cielino, Santa Barbara, California. I have gained appreciation for your conservative viewpoint now. Right, Right away, Peggy, you're going into an alley here because we don't pedal ideology here at all. All right, I appreciate. I have gained an appreciation for you, conservative on some issues. But after watching you on Chris Cuomo's news presentation, I don't think you were presenting a fair or complete assessment of the no Kings marches. You made the comment that the people in the marches wouldn't know why they were there. I could give you a list if you want. It was about Trump's authoritarian rule and his disrespect for the destruction of our democracy. I think anyone at the march here in Santa Barbara could also give you a list, and I don't doubt it. But that's not what was on the signs, Peggy, the destruction of our democracy. I need to have some data on that. You guys in Santa Barbara being prevented from protesting or voting or anything. So how is the democracy in Santa Barbara being destroyed? I just need to know that. And then on the other issues on News Nation, I ran him down. I said, okay, you don't like his authoritarianism, all right, but if he were a king, you wouldn't be out there protesting because he'd have you all beheaded. Right. That's what absolute monarchs do. But your head's still there whether it's on straight or not. But I appreciate, I appreciate the commentary. I do. I want you to challenge me, but I think that was all a contrived event. But I do think you're correct that most of the people who do not like President Trump reject his authoritative approach. I think you were right on that. In a moment, something you might not know.

Your ratings are very good and I want to congratulate you. Now, the O'Reilly update brings you something you might not know. Two years ago today, actor Matthew Perry found dead in his LA home. The coroner sang he died from drowning and extreme levels of a powerful sedative called ketamine. Here is the story. Born in 1969, Massachusetts, the young actor made guest appearances on sitcoms, soap operas, then Beverly Hills 90210. At the age of 24, he landed the role of Chandler Bing on the NBC program Friends. The show became a sensation for the next 10 years. Perry is one of the highest paid celebrities in America, earning $1 million an episode for Friends. But fame apparently took its toll. Perry struggled with severe addictions to alcohol, narcotics and prescription drugs. On October 28, 2023, the actor ingested a massive dose of sedatives, went into his hot tub, lost consciousness, then drowned five people, including a drug dealer. Two doctors pleaded guilty in connection with his death. All will be sentenced later this year. And here's something else you might not know. Matthew Perry's death is not unusual. Many celebrities have fallen victim to accidental overdoses. Actor Heath Ledger perished in his sleep after ingesting six different prescription opioids. Singer Whitney Houston drowned in her bathtub while abusing cocaine. British songwriter Amy Winehouse drank herself to death. Musician Prince died from fentanyl poisoning, the same drug that killed guitarist Tom Petty in 2018. Similar fates have befallen Michael Jackson, Chris Farley, Elvis Presley, Jim Morrison, Jimi Hendrix, Janis Joplin. The list is almost never ending. Today, 17% of Americans over the age of 12 are addicted to drugs or alcohol. That is 48 million people. That statistic has doubled since Ronald Reagan began the war on drugs in 1982. Back in a moment.
