Smith was on the Hannity program the other night and said the Democratic Party needs a complete overhaul. Mr. Smith, Adam himself is surely correct. The party is a shambles because I believe it a strong two party system. I am now appointing myself as the architect of a brand new movement, an organization that puts the welfare of the American people above foolish progressive philosophy. A party that comes back to reality. First of all, the minority leader, Senator Chuck Schumer, needs to retire and move to the villages in Florida. There Schumer would be issued a golf cart and pickleball racket. He would not be allowed to speak during the daytime. Schumer has no solutions to any vexing problems. Like his pal Joe Biden, the Dems need a vibrant leader. On the Hill, the Chuckster doesn't even come close. The new Democratic Party leader also needs to stop the nonsense. Soft on crime, no trans school privileges, no higher taxes, no despising Israel a loser, permissive social order policies gone. That's just a start. The new Democrats must cease with the equity skin color preferences. They have to demand better public school education, stop catering to the unions. That's just the beginning. Over to you, Stephen a. I'm Bill O'Reilly. I approve the message by writing it. You can reach me billoriley.com bill@billoreilly.com Name in town. If you wish to opine, let's go to the mailbag. Stephen Holbert, Brookhaven, GA really appreciate your objective commentary. You're pretty much the only one left. O'Reilly, you continue to point out that Trump is a disruptor. That's true and cheered on by many, but I fear he might be reaching too far. More and more Trump folks I know are shaking their heads, exhausted by the daily onslaught of crisis, conflicts, lawsuit, etc. There is a danger, but the man is an amazing physical specimen. I just got through with me. That guy makes me look like Rip Van Winkle. Trump is going to be 80. Never seen anything like it. And that's literally true. But. But pacing yourself is not a bad thing.

Trump has an opportunity to get in front of the issue by drafting his own version of immigration reform. Undoubtedly the demons will oppose, but at least it's a start. I agree with you. I'd like to see the president put forth forth his vision of immigration reform. I agree 100%. Hugh Novak, Cascade Charter Township, Michigan Being an effective leader and being evil are two different considerations. Putin has been evil and effective. So it's effective to kill a million of your countrymen or have them wounded by a stupid invasion? That's effective? No, not my opinion. K. Milwitz, Rhinebeck, New York thank you, O'Reilly for your thoughtful commentary on YouTube. Between Trump and Tom Hanks, both men need to acknowledge the good that the other is doing. I like that. K. I think that's a very, very good point. Trump's doing good things, Tom Hanks doing good things. So acknowledge it. I don't think there should be a feud in a moment, something you might not know.

No. Today marks the 24th anniversary of the worst terror attack in American history. The events of 911 claim the lives of 3,000 innocent people in New York City, D.C. pennsylvania. Nearly a quarter century later, the legacy of September 11th still affects our daily lives. Here's how the list of victims continues to grow. As of March 2025 this year, more than 4,000Americans have died from 911 related illness. Another 50,000 currently battling cancer from toxic exposure. In lower Manhattan, the odds of a person living near ground zero contracting a deadly disease five times higher than the national average. Then there's a financial impact. To this date, more than 39 billion taxpayer dollars have been paid out. To this date, more than $39 billion have been paid out from insurance companies, governments, lawsuits and charities. The 911 attack launched wars in Iraq and Afghanistan. Total price tag, $5 trillion. 7,000Americans killed in action. According to the national priorities project, the USA has spent 21 trillion dollars on enhancing American security. That includes 16 trillion on the military, 2 trillion for the creation of the Department of homeland security, 1 trillion for enhancing the airport. Today, our daily routines are still affected by the attack on the Twin Towers. Folks flying around the country are subjected to invasive screening, including rules on liquids and advanced imaging scans for bombs and other explosives. Metal detectors, bag searchers now deployed at most major airports and concerts. Jury duty, town halls, subway entrances, train stations, political rallies. And here's something else you might not know about 9 11. One of the first public figures to tour the devastation in lower Manhattan was Donald Trump. With smoke still filling the air, the future president visited the site one week after the attack. Back after this.
