A
Foreign Bill O'Reilly here. Welcome to the no Spin News. Monday, September 8, 2025. Stand up for your country. Well, it's a big week for us. Confronting evil hits the marketplace tomorrow. Boy, I started talking about it six months ago. I can't believe it was like a flash. But it's here and it's worth your time and we'll tell you why. And I'm doing a lot of media, obviously, got to do that to get people's attention because people are so distracted now with the phones and their kids and the sports and whatever it may be. It's got pound pound pound. Did you know that according to marketing studies, it takes a mention of a product, any product confronting evil is a product nine times before Americans get it in here that it exists. Nine times. Usually once or twice or three times. Now you got to go nine. So I hate to be repetitive, but book is worth your while. We'll talk about it a little bit in this broadcast based upon Tucker Carlson's statement that Putin is not as evil as Biden. I hope you read my column on this. I filed it yesterday. It's on Billoriele.com I'm not mocking Mr. Carlson. He's an ex teammate of mine. But what I'm trying to say is that people don't understand evil, which is why I read, I wrote this book. I mean, you got to understand it. And we'll get into that. But first, the Talking Points Memo. The Trump administration hits a wall. All right, so he's everywhere and he's paying a price for it. His hands hurt. He slashed over a little bit. He's tired. There has not been a president in modern history in the first seven months who has tried to reform the government as much as Donald Trump has. That is a true historical statement. FDR would be second because he walked into the Great Depression. But half the country doesn't want reform. Half the country still supports the Democratic Party. They didn't want to change one thing other than raise taxes, violence, okay with them? Ukraine, war, nothing. Gaza, nothing. So the people who support the Democrats, and there are millions and millions of them, they don't want to reform at all. So that Trump is up against that, but he doesn't really care. He made promises and he wants to keep them. But right now he's stalled. Let me back it up. So you've got Ukraine, which Donald Trump thought he would solve very quickly. But Putin is not the same president that Trump dealt with five years ago. Putin now is a certified psychopath. He does not want to stop the killing. Very hard to negotiate with a person like that. China trade has stalled. This is huge. Xi playing a little bit of a game, waiting to see if Trump can get anything out of Putin. And finally, you got the Hamas situation just today. Two Palestinians assassinated, six innocent people in Israel just today, okay? And Hamas applauded it. You know, you anti Israel people out there, if you don't see the evil coming out of Hamas and those terrorists, then don't read my book. There's nothing I can do for you. I opened the book with the October 7th attack just to put you in the middle of evil. But if you don't believe it at this point, forget about the book. Be a total waste of time for you. All right, so Trump is stalled on all three of those things right now. It frustrates him. Okay, then he's got the economy, which right now people are worried about. And I'll give you the poll numbers in a moment. But let me give you the economic numbers because they're very, very important. So unemployment in the USA is 4.3%. Okay? Four years ago under Biden, it was 4.8%. Inflation right now is 2.7%. Four years ago, 5.4%. So obviously the nation is better off now than it was four years ago under Biden. Not even debatable. But. But Trump promised, and this is why he got elected. All right, Economic relief, now that's a little dicey. According to Reuters poll. And that Reuters is so. So most Americans are worried. Do you approve of the way Donald Trump is handling employment and jobs? Approve. 38. Disapprove. 51. That's not a good number for the president. Do I believe the number is accurate? Not really, but I do believe that Trump has got. People are waiting to see, but they're not happy right now. I think that's accurate. CBS poll. Again, questionable poll. Do you think the U.S. economy is getting better? 27%. Worse. 56%. That is a tough number. Staying the same. 17. Okay, so you are looking at. And by the way, I hate by the way, but in addition, that's a better phrase. November 24th, after Trump was elected, getting worse was 42. It's now up to 56. Why? It's because of the grocery store. Primarily gas prices in my neighborhood on Long island, they're coming down a little bit. They're not as bad as they were under Biden. And you could see that the oil supply is rising. That I think will continue. But food prices, the truth is the grocery stores, the restaurants do not want to drop these prices. And Trump can't force them. They don't want to drop them. Food companies don't want those prices going down. That's really a tough problem. It's almost like Putin. So you trying to deal rationally with these problems can't deal with an irrational man. Putin got to force him. Okay? And the US Companies are going, I don't want to draw my purse. I'm getting it. People have to eat. So why do I want to drop them? The only way that happens is if competition steps in and some lower their prices, then the others almost have to do it. Very, very difficult. So at this point, the Trump administration has lost some momentum. However, next week, interest rates will probably be cut. That could provide a storm surge for Trump. I don't know if it will. Nobody could predict these things. The tariffs a little bit further out could go either way. And that's the memo. Bill O'Reilly here. Under President Biden, we saw the American dream slip away from any because of record spending, open borders, policies that ignited inflation. But that's all changing. President Trump has laid out a vision to restore American prosperity. And I want you to consider what we have in this vision. So please join me and investment expert Alexander Green for a special event called the Rebirth of the American Dream, where we will reveal Donald Trump's plan to eliminate inflation while supercharging growth.

Joining us now is a economist who's, you know, he's on it. He's a pro Trump guy, Steve Moore, he's the co founder of Unleash Prosperity. I get his stuff every day and it's worth reading, that's for sure. In my analysis. Am I making any mistakes?
- [09:30]
B
Mr. Moore, I feel great to be with you. Thanks so much for having me on. Great admirer of yours. I think he got most of the story right. As a Trump guy, if I were a Trump political guy, I advise him a little bit on economics, I would be worried about those numbers. Now, remember, one thing that skews these numbers is that the country is, as you've reported and everyone knows, is so polarized today that, you know, Trump could, could start world peace. He could find A cure for cancer. He could, you know, create 10 million jobs. And still about half the country would still say they oppose him. Just as under Biden, you know, half of the country was opposed to everything he was doing. So that's why I take a little bit of these polls with a grain of salt. But it is worrisome. You're right. And I think you diagnosed the problem. Well, that the biggest thing that people are concerned about, and I have a one person sample, and that's my wife who says every time I come home, you gotta do something about grocery prices. And people are angry about it. And they went way up under Biden and they've stayed high under Trump. So that is something people are very worried about because they go to the store two or three or four times a week. Now, I would say that one thing is gonna provide some big relief is what you mentioned at the end, which is energy, energy prices, gas prices are coming down and many areas of the country were below $3 a gallon when they were as high as $5 a gallon a few years ago. So that's something that people pay attention to as well. And that, that is a result of Trump's drill baby drill policies. You increase the supply of something, the price goes down.
- [11:10]

Okay, is there anything that any president can do about lowering food prices or is it just the marketplace that has to do that?

- [13:29]
B
Yeah, that's a good question. I think it's the marketplace. One of the things that's really curious, Bill, and I don't have an answer to this, but I'll just raise it as an issue. If you talk to farmers lately, they don't feel like they're doing very well, the farmers. They're complaining.
- [13:43]
A
They always complain.
- [13:45]
B
What's that?
- [13:46]
A
They always complain. Yeah, I've never, I've never ever. And I love the farmers, you know, but they always complain now.
- [13:55]
B
And so you have prices at the grocery store are going up and yet farmers are saying they're not doing any better. So where's the money going?
- [14:03]
A
The transportation companies and the food companies. Food companies, margin of profit, the big food companies, it's up, they're not hurting. That's where the money's going. But I don't see, you know, Nixon, as you know, being an economic scholar, tried wage price controls. Disaster didn't work. Can't do it. So when Donald Trump says I'm going to bring down food prices, he's raising expectations to a level that he can't be. Am I wrong?
- [14:35]
B
I don't think he should have said that. What he should have said is I'm going to stabilize food prices. And to a large extent, he has done that. I mean, look, the overall inflation rate in the economy, which had reached as high as 9% under, under Joe Biden, is now running at, you know, 2.6, 2.7%. That I'd like to see that down below two and a half percent. I'd like to see it closer to 2%. But it's, it's, you know, it's in a range that you can live with. Now, one thing to think about, if people are concerned about high prices, then is this the right time to be cutting interest rates? Because cutting interest rates puts more money in the economy. I'm a little nervous about that. When Trump says let's cut interest rates by 200 basis points, be careful of what you wish for, Mr. President. You flood the economy with that much money. You know, what are, what is inflation? We learned this from Milton.
- [15:24]
A
Well, he's hoping.
- [15:25]
B
Too many dollars chasing too few goods.
- [15:27]
A
So he. But he's hoping.
- [15:28]
B
That may not be a great idea.
- [15:30]
A
But here's what he's hoping for. He's hoping that the interest rate cut will stimulate job creation and get the job market moving again so that people would be earning more money. That's what the tariff thing's all about. He wants the American people to earn more money because that's what happened in his first term. So that's why he's doing it. I don't oppose that. But here's the last question for you. This issue is everything for Donald Trump, far more than Ukraine and Gaza and even China. China is unbelievably serious. But this issue is coming to a head in the midterm elections, 14 months. And if the White House is not able to present a vastly improving economic situation, they risk losing Congress one or both houses. That's the urgency.
- [16:31]
B
Yeah, well, I agree with what you just said. It is the economy, stupid. And look, I'm very bullish. You're talking to one of the most bullish guys out there. I like a lot what Trump is doing. I'm not a big fan of the terrorists, but I like these trade deals. I think he's going to get a better deal with some of these countries. He's already gotten commitments of hundreds of billions of dollars. He says trillions, but I'm going to say hundreds of billions of dollars of new investment in the United States that will create a lot of jobs. We have completely secured the border. We've got down 94% in terms of illegal immigration. As I mentioned, low gas prices, a record high stock market, and people are feeling, you know, just better about stuff. So I think good times are here to come.
- [17:13]
A
All right, Steve, you know, for everybody, I hope you're right. It's not a political play. I want all Americans to have. Have better lives. And you need money to do that. There's no doubt about it. Okay, let's go to Chicago. So this is on hold, but here's something very clever. And the news media never reports this. That's why you watch and listen to me. So there's a constitutional problem with Trump sending National Guard and federal agents to control crime in Chicago. There's no doubt that's a Posse Comitatus law. So here's what the administration is doing. It's flooding Chicago with ICE agents because Chicago is a sanctuary city. In order to protect those ICE agents, President Trump is saying, I need federal authority because the locals may hurt the ICE Federal agents, we have to protect them. So I'm going to send in the Guard and some federal agents, FBI, dea, maybe to protect the federal immigration agents on the ground because they need protection. That's what he did in la, said, look, we got to protect federal property because the LA authorities aren't going to do it and California authorities. That's what's happening now. Still a gray area, but gives the administration more authority constitutionally than it would have if it just went boom. That's why the Guard isn't in there. And at the same time, the Trump administration, the President himself, believes he's winning the issue because the Democrats that oppose this have no solution to the vast murders. Listen, this weekend, not a holiday weekend, 19 people shot in Chicago, 19 seven dead, 12 wounded. Illinois and Chicago cannot control the violence. It's going on for years. They don't want to control it. They don't want to because then you get into racial politics, then you get into, hey, it's mostly black drug gangs and killing other blacks. They don't want to deal with it. So is obviously it has to be addressed. And if your state and city won't address it, federal has to. Now, that's been going on, as I said in a message of the day on bill o'reilly.com Since George Wallace, all right, was standing in the doorstep and JFK said, get out of there, I'm sending a guardian. Eisenhower sent a guard to Arkansas to enforce federal law. Okay, I forget what president was that took over the New Orleans. I think it was Reagan took over the whole police department in New Orleans because it was so corrupt. Feds ran it. This is not unprecedented. So that's what's happening in Chicago. There is a poll, cbs again, question. Do you favor oppose Donald Trump's decision? Deploy National Guard to Washington. To Washington. Favor. 43 opposed. 57. Okay, break it by party. Only 7% of Democrats favor that. 93% oppose. Republicans 87 favor. 13 oppose. Okay, so even though that's federal authority and since the Guard has been in Washington, it's been a 38% drop in violent crime. That's a lot of deaths. Prevent it. Democrats don't care. They don't care. Now, it's not a partisan statement, it's a factual statement.

A
If you say to them, hey, 38% drop in violent crime, that's significant. They don't have any answer to that. Oh, Trump's a fascist Constitution, no police state, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. In Chicago, the machine hates Trump. This is Pritzker Johnson. So they're never ever going to cooperate with him. So what's going to happen in Chicago? I think the guard will go in because the President doesn't shy away from these legal battles. Supreme Court protecting ICE agents. It's tough. Going to be five, four, either way. That's what's going on there. Listen to this story. Now, I got to credit John Solomon, Just the News. This guy's a really good investigative reporter. Yes, he's conservative, okay, but boy is good. So they filed Just the News a Freedom of Information act about how much money we, the American taxpayer, have paid Hunter Biden. We're paying Hunter, do you know that? Listen to this, okay? $11 million when Joe Biden was in office for security, travel, real estate, hotels, on and on and on and on. So this was hidden until Solomon and Just the News filed a foia, Freedom of Information. Got all it. Let me write it down for you and I'll put it into perspective. You remember RFK Jr. When he was campaigning to be president, was denied Secret Service protection. Remember that? Not Hunter. Nope. So according to Just the News, Hunter took a Thanksgiving trip to Nantucket, see his dad, his family. $10,000 on golf cart rentals for Secret Service to get around. Okay. 120,000 on lodging in Nantucket. 120,000. Okay. 120,000 on ferries, car rentals, on and on and on and on. Okay. Then Hunter took a trip to St. Croix in the virgin islands. Okay. $372,000. $372,000. It's staggering. And can you imagine this taxpayer money going? This is Hunter Biden. He's in the Caribbean on our. We're paying for it. 18,000 for a two day trip to Santa Barbara. 10,000 for one night in Arlington, Virginia. 170,000 for two day trip to Wilmington, Delaware. 250,000. 13 hotels on a New York City hotel rooms on a New York City trip. $650,000 for a trip to wine country in California. This is all Secret Service expenses, all Biden family expenses. All of that. We paid it. You don't think Biden was corrupt? The President, you don't think he's corrupt, boy. LAPD ends protection for Kamala Harris. So on September 1st, that was the last time Secret Service was ordered to protect the former Vice President. Donald Trump ordered no more protection. Five days later, Saturday September 6th, the LAPD said we can't protect her either because we have to do crime suppression. So Kamala now is left without any protection at all. Lives in a house in Brentwood, California. It's got security. Now. I don't know if this is good, because she could get hurt. Kamala Harris, she's going to have to hire her own private security. And I know people will say, well, that's what you have to do. Okay, But I'm not sure I would have done that this close with this kind of a country now divided and a lot of hatred. I mean, that nut that tried to kill Trump on the golf course, do you know his trial begins today? Jury selection begins today. I mean, there's nuts everywhere. So I'm a little uneasy. I would not have done that. I would have extended the Secret Service protection of Kamala Harris a bit. Not that I didn't. Not forever, but. And we're going to cover that trial. Nobody knows anything about this. I did a big radio piece on it. This guy Ruth, he's a nut. He's representing himself, but they'll put him away for life. That's the end game on this thing. But the process begins today in Florida. All right, evil. So Tucker Carlson gave me a big opening here. Now, he's an old teammate of mine from Fox News. You know that. And I get along with him fine. I don't have any beef. Again, he's free to say what he wants to say. He runs an operation out of X. He's one of the best marketeers I've ever seen. He's on a par with Donald Trump, knows how to get attention. But his latest. I said, whoa. He believes, Tucker Carlson, that Biden is more evil than Putin. Go.
- [27:47]
D
If you think that Joe Biden was a better leader or a better man than Vladimir Putin, Like, I don't even know what to say to you. That's insane. There's. By no measure. By no measure did Joe Biden's country, the people he solemnly swore to help and defend, did they thrive? No, they withered. Putin, who's been there for 25 years, his country's improved. The people are happier. They like him. Actually, the war has been a little tough on the wars. Of course it's been tough. Of course it's been tough.
- [28:15]
E
I'd be curious about public opinion today.
- [28:17]
D
This far into the war. Well, actually, it's measured a lot.
- [28:20]
A
Yeah.
- [28:20]
D
Look it up and you can say, oh, that's all a lie. Okay, well, show me one.
- [28:25]
A
Okay.
- [28:26]
D
Go there and look I not moving to Russia. But I mean, Putin has been the most effective leader in my lifetime.
- [28:37]
A
Well, effective is an interesting word. You could say Hitler was an effective leader. Recovered all of Europe. Z, Mao Zedong was affected. He made China communist and remains so today. Stalin, okay, made Russia communist. Effective, that's a tough word. But Putin's evil. And you got a million Russians dead or wounded in that war. And there's no popular opinion polls in Russia. Nobody answered the question because you wind up dead.

See mintmobile.com and I document all of this in Confronting Evil. So I wrote a column yesterday about this situation. I hope you read it on billoriley.com but there are the important issue is Putin's far more evil than Joe Biden. But Biden's not off the hook. So if you read the Divine Comedy by Dante, it's a classic, you'll know that there are circles, nine circles of hell. That's Dante's theory. And the worst of the worst are the top circle. And it goes down. That's what this is. Okay, So I got 15 people, all men, in Confronting Evil. I couldn't find a woman that rose to the 15 men we talked to you about. And I'm going to play a clip on a NewsNation special in a moment. But there are levels of evil. Now, Joe Biden's evil was that he violated his constitutional oath to enforce the laws of the United States by totally turning away from the southern border by just not enforcing border law. And when Trump came in and enforced it, it stopped dead. The result of Biden not enforcing the border was the deaths of tens of thousands of Americans. Murders, chaos. Millions of criminals came in here, millions to cause destruction. That's evil. Now some people make a case that, well, Biden didn't know what he was doing. Nobody can prove that. I don't think Biden cared. And that's evil. If you don't care about what happens to fellow human beings, you're bad. But it's not Putin. Putin wants to kill women and children. That's a strategy of his. We'll kill as many people as we can. We don't care who they are in Ukraine. And they'll surrender and we'll take over the country. My God. So anyway, I thought it was fascinating and I wanted to bring it to your attention. Smart life. So something I started late in life that's helped me a lot is a weekly calendar. Okay. And if you don't have a weekly planner, I got a big thing you're going to miss out on a lot of life. So this is a small life segment. So on Wednesday, this coming September 10th, News Nation is doing a special on confronting evil. One hour special. It's at 10:00pm Eastern Time. Got to write it down because there's just a million things going on now. I'll be on News Nation tonight with leland Vitterd at 9. Wednesday, I'll be on with Cuomo at 8. It's a lot of O'Reilly on News Nation, but the special goes over a lot of the things in the book. So here's a taste of it. This is about the evil of American slave traders. The two men who headed up that industry became the wealthiest. Meant in the world. Roll it.
- [33:24]
F
Slavery was at the very heart of the American economy. That's why it was so important to the South. That's the thesis of the 1619 project.
- [33:31]
A
Right.
- [33:32]
F
Are you on the same side as them?
- [33:34]
A
No. Okay. Because slavery was exclusively for the benefit of the aristocracy in the South. And the reason it wasn't outlawed was because the south would secede. And everybody knew that. These kooks that want to denigrate America, they're basically saying, okay, slavery built the country. That's not true. All right. That's not even close to being true. What is true is the legacy of slavery harms African Americans to this day. That is true. And I think we have tried now to rectify that. My belief is we have tried to right the historical wrongs.
- [34:19]
F
The Civil War was fought to protect slavery. Yet the statues to Confederate generals still stand a big part of traditional values Americans, whatever you want to call them, maga, we're going to bring the statues back. Bases named after Confederate generals. How do you square that?
- [34:34]
A
I square it like I want those names out there. I want people to see who these men were because they're all different.
- [34:42]
F
There's a difference in having the name out there than celebrating it.
- [34:45]
A
Right.
- [34:45]
F
We wouldn't have.
- [34:45]
A
What about celebrating?
- [34:46]
F
Would we ever Have Fort Forrest after Nathan Bedford Forrest.
- [34:50]
A
So one of the worst people who ever lived in America was Nathan Bedford Forrest. We got a chapter on him, Confederate general, and he was the founder of the Ku Klux Klan. As evil as they come now, there's no justification for having a statue of Nathan Bedford Forrest. Robert E. Lee, A Different Story. Okay, so I try in this documentary, to all the people that we have in a book, all the evildoers to tie it into present day, and they all tie in. Henry VIII ties in. Genghis Khan ties in. Where do you see how they tie in? And it's a history book. Obviously, a lot of people don't care about history, but boy, oh, boy, I think you got to know it. And finally, the overarch of confronting evil is if good people don't confront it, if you look away, even in your own neighborhood, whatever's going on, then evil gains power. That's it. Final thought. My mother is the final thought. Back in a moment. All right, here is the final thought of the day. So I had a great mom. Winifred Angela O'Reilly. Okay. Kindest woman. Oh, my God. She was so good at being a mom. Luckiest thing in my life that I had her raising me. My mother never experienced evil in her entire life. She lived in a bubble, a suburban bubble in Levittown. It was a neighborhood. It was a church. It was socializing. She never saw it. Not one time. My father built a kind of a protective wrap around the house. But I've seen evil. 50 years of reporting like crazy. But my mother knew it existed, but she never saw it. A lot of people like that. And I open confronting evil with October 7th, the Hamas raid in Israel. I put you right in the middle of that raid in case you have never experienced direct evil. And that's why the worthiness of the book. You got to know what the world is all about, and we have to fight it. Thank you for watching and listening to the no Spin News. We'll see you again tomorrow.
