Episode: Who Really Cares About Alex Pretti?, Rep. Jason Smith on Neville Roy Singham Inciting Violence, & Bill's Hard Hitting Interview With DHS’s Tricia McLaughlin
Date: January 29, 2026
Host: Bill O’Reilly

Overview

This episode centers on three main stories: the controversial shooting of activist nurse Alex Preddy during a law enforcement incident in Minneapolis, the exposure of billionaire Neville Roy Singham's alleged financial support of violent activism through nonprofits with Chinese Communist Party ties, and an in-depth interview with DHS Assistant Secretary Tricia McLaughlin about federal responses to unrest and alleged failures of local officials. Bill O’Reilly frames these issues as interconnected threats to American security and national stability, blaming both media bias and political inaction for escalating chaos.

Key Discussion Points & Insights

1. Shooting of Alex Preddy & Media Response ([00:00]–[08:00])

• Incident Recap:
  O’Reilly critiques media coverage of the fatal police shooting of Alex Preddy, a 37-year-old nurse and activist, emphasizing Preddy was armed and interfered with law enforcement.

  “You do not bring a loaded weapon to a law enforcement operation. … That’s known as suicide by cop.” — Bill O’Reilly [03:28]

• Media Criticism:
  Claims that mainstream outlets use Preddy’s death to attack the Trump administration rather than focus on law and order.

  “You think the media cares about him at all? I think they're using a dead man to try to damage the Trump administration.” — Bill O’Reilly [01:52]

• Second Amendment Defense Debate:
  O’Reilly presents, then derides, arguments on other programs (including 'The View') justifying Preddy’s armed presence as constitutional.

  “It's legal for him to carry it, and he carries it into a police confrontation, and you're somehow trying to justify that?” — Bill O’Reilly [06:08]

2. The Neville Roy Singham Conspiracy & Foreign Funding of Protest ([08:00]–[15:00])

• Who is Neville Roy Singham?:
  O’Reilly and Rep. Jason Smith discuss Singham, an American tech billionaire with ties to China, who allegedly funds radical activism in the US through 501(c)(3) nonprofits ("Breakthrough News," "People’s Forum").

• Allegations:

  • Foreign money, especially from the CCP, is funneled to create “chaos and discourse” in the US.
  • Smith’s committee has asked both the Trump and Biden administrations to strip 11 nonprofits of tax-exempt status for these activities.
  • Accusations against DOJ, IRS, and Treasury for inaction despite Smith’s warnings and evidence.

• Political & Media Inaction:
  O’Reilly and Smith agree that both left-leaning and mainstream media ignore the story, and Democrats have not cooperated with efforts to stem foreign influence.

  “Nobody is doubting the information that you’ve assembled. … Nobody is challenging. It’s not a he said, she said. Now the media blacks it out.” — Bill O’Reilly [12:09]

3. Philadelphia & Boston: Lawlessness and Local Defiance ([15:19]–[19:07])

• Philadelphia:
  City DA Larry Krasner is criticized for supporting local laws aimed at preventing federal immigration enforcement and for publicly threatening federal agents.

  “If we have to hunt you down the way they hunted down Nazis for decades, we will find your identities, we will find you.” — Larry Krasner, via O’Reilly [16:33]

• Boston:
  Boston’s police commissioner and mayor are targeted for refusing to honor any of 57 federal requests for criminal detainers in 2025, a trend O’Reilly attributes to radical left leadership.

4. Interview: DHS’s Tricia McLaughlin ([19:07]–[29:37])

• Clarifying the Facts:

  • Status of Federal Agents:
    Agents involved in the Preddy shooting are on standard administrative leave, not reassigned ([19:58]).

    • Investigation: Multiple agencies, led by DHS, are reviewing the incident, with the FBI and ATF in support ([20:24]).

  • Violence Against Federal Officers:

    • McLaughlin details a “1000% increase” in assaults on officers in Minneapolis, including use of cars as weapons and attacks on hotels housing agents ([24:08]).
    • Recent arrests of violent agitators involved more cooperation from local law enforcement, though this remains rare ([25:39]).

  • Critique of Premature Labeling:
    O’Reilly chides McLaughlin’s boss Kristi Noem for prematurely branding Preddy a “terrorist,” cautioning against hasty statements ([22:54], [23:25]).

  • Alleged Local Official Misconduct:
    O’Reilly questions if subpoenas have been issued for Minnesota’s governor and Minneapolis’ mayor. McLaughlin cannot comment on DOJ investigations, but O’Reilly suggests possible charges of “subversion, rebellion” ([26:22]).

  • Criminal Alien Arrests Ignored by Media:
    McLaughlin shares details of three recent arrests (two from Laos, one from Vietnam, all with serious crime convictions), alleging the mainstream press suppresses such stories ([27:47], [28:41]).

    “Those are just three individuals that we arrested yesterday in Minneapolis. And yet you are not going to hear that anywhere in the mainstream media.” — Tricia McLaughlin [28:41]

5. International: Spain’s Amnesty & NATO Arrears ([29:38]–[31:30])

• Spain refusing to pay NATO dues and granting amnesty to 500,000 undocumented migrants becomes a symbol, for O’Reilly, of international disregard for security obligations and rise in “welfare state” dependency ([29:38]–[31:00]).

6. US Economic Policy Updates ([31:31]–[33:00])

• Trump Accounts:
  Federal government plans to create “Trump accounts” giving $1,000 seed savings to children from low-income families, potentially growing to $50,000 by age 18. Families can add contributions ([31:31]).

  • O’Reilly notes positives for the policy but acknowledges impact on national debt.

• Tax Refunds:
  Trump administration claims average refunds will rise by $1,000 in 2026 ([32:00]).

  • Public confidence in the economy is reportedly declining, though jobs remain plentiful ([32:45]).

Transcript

[A]

Foreign. Here. Welcome to the no spin News for Wednesday, January 28, 2026. Stand up for your country. Lot going on. That idiot who attacked Congressman Omar last night with some kind of liquid stuff. I hope he goes to prison. I really, I hope he goes to prison. I mean, we gotta stop this stuff and I don't know what was in that. I'm trying to figure out what this is all about. She's okay, but we're not getting a lot of good news reporting out of Minneapolis on the situation. But anyway, we're on it. And I mean I have no use for Ilhan Omar, but you can't be doing this. And her bodyguards and security should, you know, whacked that guy way before he got close to her. So most of the morning I spent interacting with the FBI. They're not investigating me, they're investigating everything in Minnesota. And I want them to tell me and you what they are actually doing. So we are making headway there. We have their attention, that is for sure. And I got to be diplomatic here. You know me, I'm not really a diplomatic guy. And I understand that they can't run out and give specifics about investigations that are underway. But at this point in history, we need to know what the deuce is going on as far as the Justice Department is concerned in Minneapolis. You have to tell us exactly what you're looking at, but you got to give us an overview and I think we're going to get it. So that's what we did today. Talkie points memo is I don't think the media cares about Alex Pretty, the man shot to Death on Saturday. 37 year old nurse. You think the media cares about him at all? I think they're using a dead man to try to damage the Trump administration. That's what I think they're doing. I don't care about him and I'm going to make my case right now. So Border patrol agents were attempting to detain a woman on Saturday in Minneapolis when Preddy came upon the scene and tried to interfere. He was carrying a loaded weapon. As you know, that alone is insane. Wasn't the first time. Now we have not been able to confirm this ourselves with CNN is reporting that Preddy did it another time and had his ribs broken. Okay. In a fracas with federal agents. This is CNN reporting it, not me. I haven't been able to confirm that yet. Anyway, Pretty, despite being a nurse and all that was a very militant activist. That's who he was. That doesn't mean he should be dead. But let's be honest about the situation, okay? Now, during the struggle, federal agent said a number of times, he's got a gun. Those are the words uttered. Preddy had a cell phone in his hand, a gun under his cloak, and he wound up being shot 10 times, and he's dead. Okay? Horrible. Everybody. Any sane person acknowledges that. But as I said yesterday, Mr. Freddie brought the tragedy, the end of his life on himself. You do not bring a loaded weapon to a law enforcement operation. Confronting agents, local, state, federal, doesn't matter. You do not do that. That's known as cop suicide by cop. To do that. He did it. And you would know it by listening to much of the American media. Roll tape. It meant that you saw testimonials from.

[B]

People who knew Alex Preddy, who could confirm that he was a literal choir.

[A]

Boy and an ICU nurse. It meant that you saw videos of.

[B]

Alex Preddy in a VA giving that.

[A]

Moving speech the last ride to one of his patients. Well, that may be true, but that's not the story. The story is you do not bring loaded weapons to confront peace officers. That's the story. And every media should be telling it so that this won't happen again. You don't bring a car and try to block police operations. You don't do these things. But that's not what you hear from the media. No, you hear insane stuff like, oh, oh, pretty had a right to be carrying that gun. What? Are you insane? It's. It makes me so angry. Here are two really terrible statements. Roll it.

[C]

Carrying a weapon into places when you are legally carrying that becomes, like, anywhere you go. And the first birth of the Second Amendment was about the people being able to protect themselves in case the government was to turn on them. FBI Director Cash Patel said on Sunday that he kind of had to walk back yesterday because that he had a permit. He was allowed to carry that weapon. It was perfectly legal for him to have it, according to the police chief there in Minneapolis.

[A]

Are you insane? These are stupid people. All right? It's legal for him to carry it, and he carries it into a police confrontation, and you're somehow trying to justify that. And the other one on the View says that, oh, Second Amendment is to protect us from the government. When you sought out a confrontation, you injected yourself into a dangerous situation. These people are so irresponsible. So I'm the editor at ABC News. She's gone. Gone. All right. I have to have people with some kind of level of intelligence. CNN's hopeless. You can't rehab it you can't do anything with it. It's a hopeless thing. All they do is we want to get Trump every day, every way. All right, so summing up, the responsible American citizen understands that things have to be brought under control in Minneapolis. I know as a journalist that the hate Trump movement destroyed. Trump is far more concerned with doing that than protecting Alex Preddy or Ms. Good or anybody else. I know that they would rather people die if they can get Trump. It's fine. And that's the memo. All right. Now, yesterday and Monday, we gave you a pretty solid informational flow on a guy who is funding a lot of this professional demonstration, violent demonstration. His name is Neville Roy Singham. He's a billionaire tech guy, lives in Shanghai, China. He works with the Chinese government, and he has a 5013C in the United States called Breakthrough News, where he funnels money to places like the People's Forum in New York City and other and Minnesota radical left organizations. He's deeply involved with the insurgency and the sedition against the federal government. This guy, we gave you all the information. He's a communist guy. Now, I didn't know this, and I don't think many other people do, but the chairman of the House Ways and Means Committee, Congressman Jason Smith of Missouri, has been looking at this whole situation for a while. All right. And he certainly knows about the guy and everything else that's going on. He joins us now from Washington, D.C. i didn't even know about the story, Congressman, and I'm pretty on it here. Tell us a little bit about what you found out so far.

[B]

You know, Bill, it's great to be with you, but it's very disturbing. We have been investigating 501Cs and nonprofits since I become chairman. And both in the Biden administration and now in the Trump administration, we have called for the tax Exempt status of 11 different 501Cs to be revoked because of how they've been funding terrorism, how they've been funding civil unrest. And the People's Forum that you mentioned is one of those that we called both administrations to revoke because of the money trail. The money that's coming in from the CCP that's helping with creating chaos and discourse in the United States is. Is absolutely unacceptable, Bill. It's illegal if. If for foreign money to come into elections. It should be illegal with this foreign money coming in and creating.

[A]

Yeah, and they're killing disruptions. They're killing people. People are dying. Tell me about you. Look, when you say ccp, that's the Communist Government. So everybody knows what you're talking about. So Neville Roy Singham seems to be the kingpin here. He's the face works with the Xi government works can't. I don't think he can come to the United States. I think they'd arrest him if he did. But he's married to the founder of Code Pink, who's another radical organization. Tell me about him.

[B]

No, like Roy Singham is as close to the ccp, the Chinese Communist Party as any American possibly can. And his wife, as you, as you mentioned, was one of the main funders of Code Pink to continue with creating chaos throughout the United States. This is something that apparently is their mission, their drive. It's what we're looking into. But it's unacceptable that they're able to transfer money into tax exempt entities and basically be subsidized to create this, this chaos.

[A]

Now who would stop that? The Justice Department.

[B]

It would be both the IRS and Treasury can revoke their tax exempt status. Also the Justice Department.

[A]

Have you talked to Bessie after. Have you talked?

[B]

We have.

[A]

No. Does he know?

[B]

He absolutely does know. We actually sent him an official level letter on October 7th of last year calling for these 11 entities to lose their tax exempt status, including the People's Forum. And we laid out tons of evidence.

[A]

But he didn't, he didn't move on.

[B]

He hasn't, he hasn't yet. But I'm going to be meeting with the CEO of the IRS in the next, next 10 days on this very topic because I think it's super important and I think the evidence is very clear.

[A]

Absolutely.

[B]

Before.

[A]

Would you. Will you come back after that meeting on this program and if I can make a call or two on your behalf, be happy to because look, I'm not. Nobody is doubting the information that you've assembled. Nobody is doubting that Neville Roy Singham and the Chinese government are pumping money into the United States to destabilize the federal government and violence is occurring because of it. Nobody is challenging. It's not a he said, she said. Now the media blacks it out. Is the New York Times, Washington Post, LA Times called you for anything?

[B]

No.

[A]

Okay, so they're not interested.

[B]

Paying attention.

[A]

Right. They're not interested. Democratic Party interested. Anybody on your.

[B]

They haven't been helpful so far. We have been trying to go after foreign influence of the Communist Chinese party in putting dollars into 501Cs and they have not been cooperative yet. I'm hoping that they will see the light because this is anti American. This. There's no reason why we should be subsidizing terrorism.

[A]

Congressman, once the people know what's happening, then you're going to see a startling change. But they embury it. The Democratic Party, they better cooperate because the Democrats on the Ways and Means Committee have a responsibility to act on information that you've assembled that shows. And I, and you, correct me if I'm wrong, but the only reason that Beijing would do this is, is to weaken the US Government. That's it. That's what they want to do. Correct.

[B]

It's exactly. Their whole purpose is to create chaos, make the United States weaker. We are going to continue to use every tool in the toolbox to go after these 501C3s, especially the People's Forum. And if they don't provide the documentations that we've asked, we'll use subpoena. We'll do it all.

[A]

But what I'm worried about, Congressman, is no one knows about the story because the left wing media blacks it out. Right wing media isn't even picking it up. They will now after your interview with me. Now it'll get out. So Besson sits on it. IRS commissioner sits on. Everybody's got to start to mobilize because we have two dead people now. We have an insurgency in a state, all right, not seen since the Civil War. Well, now this, this story becomes urgent. You have to get the information to the American people. Once you do that, the American people will put the pressure on the politicians and they'll have to do something. That's how it works. You know that.

[B]

Bill, I appreciate your hard work in helping get this message out and the information out because I totally, totally agree with you. The American people, they deserve to know. They need to know. We have to stop this in the United States.

[A]

All right, you're doing good work, Congressman. Once you meet with the IRS guy, I hope you come back, let us know. And Besson, we're going to contact him ourselves. All right? So we'll put a call to him today about this issue and we'll light a fire at the treasury and hopefully within two or three weeks we'll get this whole thing out so everybody understands what it is. Okay, thank you, sir.

[B]

Appreciate it.

[A]

Thank you, Congressman. That's the way we have to operate here because the press is so dishonest, they're not going to get it out. I'll get it out. Okay. And we got it out. On Hannity's radio program today, we're lighting fires. But this, this, I don't even know about this before. The Minnesota thing. In Philadelphia, there is a district attorney named Larry Krasner who's a seditionist. All right? He's up there with the fry and walls and all, this guy, okay? So in. They're trying to pass a law in Philadelphia, the local city council, that is going to prevent any kind of federal intrusion into the city as far as migrants are concerned. Law is obviously unconstitutional. It can't be, but they're trying to do it. So Crasser yesterday comes out and not only supports this insane law, but threatens federal agents. Go. This is a small bunch of wannabe Nazis. That's what they are.

[B]

In a country of 350 million, we outnumber them.

[A]

If we have to hunt you down the way they hunted down Nazis for decades, we will find your identities, we will find you.

[B]

We will achieve justice.

[A]

So Krasner, of course, funded by George Soros. It's the same thing. It's not connected. Are the Chinese and Bingham. Those guys are separate from this, but it's the same mindset. We're going to tear down a federal government because we hate Trump or whatever it may be. And Soros, he put this guy into office by ceding his campaign with all this money, and there he is threatening. Now, that's an outright threat. So, again, Justice Department's looking at that. State of Pennsylvania, Governor Shapiro. We'll put in a call to Governor Shapiro's office as well. We got lots of calls going on. What do you think about this, Governor? You want to come on and talk about it? You think about the DA in Philly, largest city in Pennsylvania, threatening federal agents, hunting them down. How about that? I can almost guarantee you Shapiro won't come on, but I think he's a pretty good man. Let's see. We'll give you updates on all this tomorrow. Boston. This is unbelievable. My second home up there. Michael Cox is a police commissioner, okay. Appointed by radical left Mayor Michelle Wu. And he's proud that Boston last year did not cooperate on One federal warrant. 57 requests were made by U.S. immigration and Customs. All were rejected. Almost all of them were criminals. Please hand over the criminals you have in your prisons to the federal authorities 57 times. More than once a week. All of them decline. And Police Commissioner Cox is proud of it. Proud of it. You see what's happening here? Joining us now from Washington, D.C. and we're very pleased to have her, Trisha McLaughlin, who is the Assistant Secretary of Public affairs at the Department of Homeland Security. So you're pretty busy these days, huh?

[C]

Yeah, yeah, absolutely.

[A]

Sir, you know what we're doing here, right?

[C]

I'm sorry. I think audio is cutting out.

[A]

All right, you know what we're doing on this program? We are reporting on the insurrection out of Minneapolis and. And Minnesota. And then we are extending it to places like Philadelphia and Boston to show the American people that this is not an organic protest. This is a very well organized and funded protest to undermine American security. That's what our goal is. Now, the reason what I want to talk to you about is specifics. All right? I want to walk through what's happening right now. So the border patrol agents that were involved in the Predi shooting have been reassigned. Is that correct?

[C]

They have not been reassigned. They're on administrative leave. They have been since Saturday. That's just standard protocol, Bill. I know the media is really blowing this up to something that it's not, but that's just standard protocol after any use of force.

[A]

Right. And every police agency does that. Not just Homeland Security, every police agency who is investigating the shooting right now. Is the FBI involved?

[C]

The FBI is involved, Bill. Homeland Security investigators are taking lead on this. FBI's support as well as ATF and other agencies are playing supporting roles. And then there is a separate investigation by CBP internally.

[A]

Okay, so the FBI is not the lead agency under the Justice Department guidelines. It is ice age, and they are assisting. The FBI is assisting. That's where we are now. That could change, right?

[C]

Yeah, absolutely. I mean, this is an active investigation. People are actively being interviewed as we speak. We know that there is body camera footage from at least four of the officers who are on the ground. I know that's actively being reviewed, but these are ongoing, and things could change every day.

[A]

All right, what is your impression? And because you are as close to this case as any human being in the world. Eglan's BEST Mejor Sabor Mejor Nutri Cion Mejores Huevos Visita eglan's BEST Punta com.

[C]

Par obtainer Mas informacion What is your.

[A]

Impression of what happened last Saturday with Mr. Preddy?

[C]

Well, I do want to let the investigation play out. And I will say at the beginning, when initial statements were made, it was from a very chaotic scene on the ground. And that's where we were getting our information from. Washington CBP officers on the ground. But what I can say, and what I think all Americans who watch the footage can see, is that there is an individual. He is armed, and he was had a physical altercation with law enforcement. He was also obstructing the course of a federal investigation, which is a federal crime. I've heard, of course, people on the right and on the left saying, you know, this individual, he had the right to conceal carry, and of course he does. That's not what anyone is contesting. What people we are contesting is the fact that this individual, while armed, was a federal crime. Obstructing our law enforcement officers. That's a felony. And unfortunately, when that's happening, if you're breaking federal law, especially when armed, that's not only dangerous, but it become deadly.

[A]

Okay, that's a rational explanation. There's no doubt about it. What isn't rational, though, is the jump point where your boss, Kristi Noem, came out and called the guy a terrorist. Now, I assume that's never going to happen again because that just exacerbates everything. And as you said, you don't want to inter. You don't want to insert yourself in the investigation. But the same standard has to be held for Ms. Noem, correct?

[C]

Well, of course, Bill, we want to give the American people accurate information in a swift manner. I'll reiterate the fact that we're getting information from on the ground at a very chaotic scene from our CBP officers. And so, of course, our first and foremost, we want to give accurate information, and that's what we're going to do going forward. Investigation is so imperative.

[A]

Trish, I'm looking out for you. It help your life if the brass wouldn't come out and say the guy's a terrorist 10 minutes after the shooting. So I hope and I know it's going to happen, you guys are just going to bring that down a little bit because that's what the media grabs. The media hates you, you know that.

[C]

I mean, of course they hate us. But I do think one thing that's very important to note here is that we have seen a highly coordinated campaign of violence against our law enforcement on the ground there in Minneapolis. You've made note of it and your earlier comments. We've seen a 1000% increase in assaults against our officers. They're having cars being used as deadly weapons against. They're being shot at with fireworks. They're being spit on. Where they're staying at night is being targeted. These hotels, you've seen the footage of the destruction at these hotels. And just until now, we weren't getting any backup from local law enforcement on the ground. And so that's why they surged our federal resources in the first place. I think that it's really important for viewers and listeners to know that that's what the environment is for. Our CBP and ICE officers, everybody watching.

[A]

Everybody watching this program, Ms. Laughlin, knows that it will change. Are you going to get protection from the Minneapolis Police Department going forward, as the law states you should have? Is that. Do you believe that will change now?

[C]

Well, I will say it looked like Governor Wallace and President Trump had a productive conversation.

[A]

Yeah, but we don't know what that was. And Fry Fry is backing off all over the place today, as you probably have heard. We're not going to do this. We're not going to do that. Do you expect this next time that your agents are in danger, the Minneapolis police to come and help?

[C]

Well, what Mayor Fry said this morning certainly was not a step in the right direction. I will say one bright spot, Bill, is what we saw the other night when our hotel, that our ICE and CBP officers were saying that that was being targeted by these anarchists, and they started destroying the property and trespassing into that hotel. Incredibly violent individuals and behavior. And state and local law enforcement did step in in that single occasion and start making arrests.

[A]

That wasn't. That was in Minneapolis. That was Maplewood.

[C]

Totally different police department outside of that exact jurisdiction. You're correct on that, sir. But what I'm saying is we want to see more of that state and local cooperation. That's why.

[A]

Sure.

[C]

That's why we're there in the first.

[A]

Place, because we don't have it. Final question. I don't know whether you know, but if you do, I hope you will tell my audience which numbers in the tens of millions now, because of YouTube, subpoenas have been issued for Walls and Fry. They're going to have to come in and testify. They, in my opinion, are very close to. They could be indicted for subversion, for rebellion. Many laws, and you know the laws, we've cited them here. Do you know how that investigation is progressing against those two men?

[C]

I cannot speak for the Department of Justice. I can only speak for Homeland Security investigators on the ground.

[A]

Okay. All right. I'll take you to word. We're working with the FBI to get some clarity on that, because this will never stop unless the federal government holds these insurrectionists responsible. Can't hold the press responsible because. But they're a huge part of the problem. Do you understand you've been in this job, what, less than a year now?

[C]

Over a year since January 20th.

Right. So do you understand why the media is so irresponsible Principle in this country. I'm just. As somebody who's been in it for 51 years. I staggered every day about what's happening. Do you have an opinion on that?

[C]

Well, I think that they have an agenda, and I think that part of that agenda, they want illegal aliens to be in this country. I mean, for example, Bill, just a couple for your audience. I think that this is important because you will never hear this from the mainstream media. Who did DHS law enforcement arrest yesterday in Minneapolis? A criminal alien from Laos convicted of homicide. Another one from Laos convicted of rape and sexual assault.

New CBS Sunday, the Grammys, baby. History will be made live, unfiltered, unexpected. Bigger than ever. Bigger stars, bigger performances. Music's biggest night is getting bigger. Now you see what all the hype is about. Trevor Noah hosts the Grammy Awards live.

[C]

Anything is possible.

[A]

CBS Sunday and streaming on Paramount.

[C]

Plus a man from Vietnam convicted for sexual assault and failure to register as a sex offender. Those are just three individuals that we arrested yesterday in Minneapolis. And yet you are not going to hear that anywhere in the mainstream media. If you go to cnn, you go to NBC, you go to cbs, you name it, you won't read it.

[A]

But the more important story is that Fry was protecting him. Those people. Fry was protecting him.

[C]

Yes. And these are the individuals we're trying to get out of the country. And yet you have rioters, you have agitators who are emboldened by walls. They're emboldened by Fry. And that's why we have to be on the ground and have a presence that we do there in Minneapolis.

[A]

All right, Is the president going to stay at the 3000 level?

[C]

I can't get ahead of the President. Tom Holman's on the ground now there, and he'll make those operational decisions.

[A]

All right, we'll talk to Tom. Trisha, thanks very much for coming on the program. Very important, and I hope we'll talk to you again soon.

[C]

Thank you for having me.

So wrapping all this up, you know, it's a serious, serious attack on the federal government of the United States, both in and out. And Donald Trump's got to solve it. It's right up there now. Got us all Spain. Listen to this. So Spain is the only NATO country that's not paying its dues. Okay? Saying doesn't say, ah, we don't want to pay. Okay? We didn't kick him out of NATO. I would have, I would have said, see ya. Okay. But Spain just not paying. Why? Why aren't they paying? They owe $2 trillion. Spain owes 2 trillion. They're never going to be able to pay it back to anybody. So the prime Minister, Pedro Sanchez says, look, you know, we don't have any money and we don't really care about NATO or Putin or Ukraine. I don't care about it. We do care about immigrants. So Pedro and his crew says, amnesty for 500,000 people. 500,000 is North Africa people, people from the Middle east who are in Spain now illegally. It's easy to get to Spain. Take the ferry right across from Tangier, Morocco, to Algeciras. I've done it five times. And you just walk in, hey, I'm here. And now Pedro goes, yeah, we're going to let them all stay now. That means that they go on the welfare state that Madrid has. This is the world now. I don't know. You don't care about Spain, but I thought that was a pretty interesting story. All right, let's go to the economy. And that's still going to be even. All this migrant stuff is intense. Economy is going to make or break the midterms. So as you probably know, under the Trump economic bill that was passed, there is a savings account, Trump account, and $1,000 will be given by the federal government to certain children. All right. In the next three years whose parents don't make a lot of money. And the president updated that today. Go. We'll fund those personal accounts with a seed contribution of $1,000, which will compound and grow over the course of their lives and could grow it to very, very substantial numbers. Parents, employers, churches, states and loved ones will also be able to add up to $5,000 in additional money for those accounts. And with every modest contribution, Trump accounts should reach at least $50,000 in value by the time the child turns 18. All right, it's a good idea. It's going to add to the national debt, but, you know, it's giving people, middle class people, working class people, a chance. And you can start opening those accounts on July 4th of this year. Tax refunds. So the Trump administration says you're going to get about $1,000 more, all right, this year than you got last year. I don't know. Okay. That's what they say. I'll watch mine. The average tax refund is $3138. So you get $4138. Now, that'll. If that happens, that's going to help the Trump administration and the Republicans. All right. American confidence in the US Economy falls sharply this month. I'm not sure why. It's according to Associated Press conference board says that Americans are losing faith in the economy, plenty of jobs, I guess, housing costs, insurance, stuff like that. But that's the facts. All right. We got final thought. We'll be right back with him. And finally, tomorrow on the no Spin News, we're going to investigate Barack Obama's migrant outlook. This is going to be so fascinating. Don't miss this. All right. All I can tell you, it's in motion now. It's incredible. President Obama, who got pretty good reviews in Confronting the president. It's my book. Where do you see Democrats will behind it 100%. That'll be tomorrow on the no Spin news and all across the world on YouTube and all of that. We thank you very much for watching us tonight. I'm Bill O'Reilly. We'll see you tomorrow.
