1:09

expensive these days, you know that. The

1:12

government is printing trillions of dollars

1:14

in consumer prices higher than ever.

1:17

If the government continues its printing

1:19

and spending, the dollar

1:21

could continue its free fall and

1:24

lose its coveted role as a

1:26

world reserve currency. Let's hope that

1:29

doesn't happen. But there

1:31

are a few things you can do right now.

1:34

1:36

2:10

or text GOLD to 65532. Again,

2:13

that's 877-444-GOLD, or text GOLD to 65532. So

2:34

the stock market is annoying, up and

2:36

down, in and out. Don't do anything.

2:38

I can't give you

2:40

direct financial advice, but I can kind

2:42

of guide, just let it play out.

2:44

It's going to be up and down

2:46

the whole year. Here's something

2:49

interesting. The market,

2:51

Wall Street, wants Trump to

2:53

win the election.

2:56

That industry wants Trump to be

2:58

president. Not everybody, the crazy CEOs,

3:01

you know them, particularly

3:03

in the media companies. But Trump

3:06

is a supply-side guy.

3:09

So if he's elected, it's

3:11

lower taxes, more money in

3:13

circulations. Consumers feel that

3:16

they can buy bigger things, that kind of a

3:18

thing. And that's why Trump did well the first

3:20

time around, economically. Biden is

3:23

a big government regulation guy, and

3:25

the street doesn't really like that

3:27

because it's all capitalism there. All

3:30

right, so when the polls

3:32

show that Trump is going ahead, the

3:34

stock market is likely to go up,

3:37

and the reverse is true. If Biden pulls ahead,

3:39

then you're going to see it go down. All

3:42

it is is, of course, temporary. Now,

3:44

Biden wins again. I expect a

3:47

huge reaction from Wall Street.

3:49

Not good, by the way. But

3:51

I could be wrong. I mean, it's

3:53

impossible to really predict. The

3:56

campaign is a subject of this evening's

3:58

Talking Points memo. So

4:00

there are some things that are quite clear and

4:02

are not going to change and you know me

4:05

I mean, I'm a big mouth and I put

4:07

myself on the line, but I'm 90% right About

4:11

what I tell you and there will be no

4:14

Presidential debate this year and Joe Biden's

4:16

people aren't gonna put him up there

4:20

Here's how crazy it is. So

4:22

I'm a hat on Hannity's radio program today and

4:24

he's and he's talking about Iran

4:26

and Israel and I disagree a little

4:29

bit with Hannity on on how

4:31

Israel should Come

4:34

back to Iran and I'm gonna play that

4:36

for you tomorrow because we're stacked tonight But

4:40

in the process I said You

4:43

had the prime minister of

4:45

Iraq in the White House

4:47

on Monday with the president

4:49

of the United States and they did not

4:51

hold a press conference on Iran

4:54

and Iraq is right next door

4:56

historically an enemy to Iran and

5:00

Iran bombs Israel on Saturday

5:02

and less than two days

5:04

later. You don't even hold

5:06

a press conference in addition

5:09

Biden as we reported had

5:11

to read off a card What

5:14

he and the Prime Minister of Iraq talked

5:16

about he couldn't even remember What

5:20

the conversation was 10 minutes

5:22

ago so

5:24

this is just staggering

5:28

You think that Biden's gonna get up there

5:30

for a 90-minute debate with Trump. There's

5:33

no way on earth So that's

5:35

not gonna happen number two

5:38

both candidates will say

5:40

anything Anything

5:42

at all Doesn't matter

5:45

if it's true. It doesn't

5:47

matter All right, those

5:49

days are gone Political

5:51

people will just say stuff. They

5:54

don't care if it's true Now

5:57

Here's a good example yesterday in

5:59

Scranton. The. President

6:01

of the United States made

6:03

a few remarks, though. We've.

6:06

Of more campaign offices because as

6:08

you off then he has no

6:10

one is I'm aware of not

6:12

being facetious. Not. Be

6:14

facetious are also a situation where

6:17

we're in a position that works

6:19

generate enough, are paid, staff significant,

6:22

and were growing in every state.

6:24

I've been to every every single,

6:26

every single a lovely toss of

6:29

states against what. If

6:31

you know anybody knows how poorly this awful

6:33

hard to pull these days. Because.

6:36

No, I'm serious. I guess what?

6:39

Even in the polls and are V

6:41

News now we're we're movie or home

6:43

and and thirty five holes. Well.

6:47

Guess what? And I'm not being

6:49

facetious. Know you're not. That's.

6:51

Totally ridiculous. And

6:53

we fact checked it and it wasn't even close.

6:56

Wanna know the truth? The Truth. Mistaken.

6:58

From Real Clear Politics which

7:01

tracks every single presidential poll.

7:04

Is got a real clear politics.com

7:06

see for yourself. So.

7:09

Since February Twenty Four host. Biden.

7:12

Leads Trump and twelve national polls

7:14

had a hat. Trump.

7:16

Please biden in Langley. T. And.

7:19

For our toss ups. So.

7:22

Miners. Are ahead. Never

7:25

has been I had never

7:27

will be ahead and thirty

7:29

five individual balls unless some

7:31

crazy thing happens. which is

7:33

certainly true. Could. Happen. So.

7:36

By going to say the stop because he knows

7:38

that going to get fat check by the watch

7:40

impose of they are crimes of the network news.

7:42

A doesn't care what I say. Or.

7:44

It's a doesn't care what the anti.

7:47

Biden Media says and I'm part of

7:49

the anti by media and I don't even

7:51

wanna be there. I.

7:54

Don't even wanna be part of

7:56

any media movement. I. Just

7:58

want to be independent. But I'd say. be

8:00

pro Biden. He's the

8:02

second worst president in our history. And

8:05

when my book comes out September

8:08

10th, we'll prove that. Okay, it's

8:10

not even hard to prove. All right,

8:13

as far as the campaign is concerned, no

8:17

debate, they'll say whatever they want. And Trump will

8:19

say whatever he wants to. I

8:21

mean, if you care, he's not fact

8:24

checking himself. So

8:27

we have conventions, Republican

8:29

July 15th to 18th, and

8:33

Democrat August 19th to 22. Why?

8:37

I mean, there's no reason to

8:39

have them, unless something happens, which

8:41

is possible. Biden's

8:44

going downhill so fast that he's not a

8:46

lock, as I said. But

8:49

if things stay the same, nobody's

8:52

going to watch him. There's no reason to have him.

8:55

I think Trump's going to announce his

8:57

VP sooner rather than later. I mean,

9:00

this possibly might hold it over to the convention,

9:03

but I don't think so. Now,

9:05

I have said this and said this and said

9:07

this. I believe it is a gut feeling of

9:10

mine, that there will be

9:12

an event or events with an S that

9:15

will change the complexion of this race. I

9:17

don't know what it is. It's just, it's

9:19

in my bones here. Okay, and

9:21

that's the memo. All right,

9:24

so Joe Biden's in Pittsburgh doing, you

9:27

know, raising money and getting the unions

9:29

and telling everybody everything's great. Okay, that's

9:31

what he does most of the time

9:33

now. New poll from the

9:36

Economist magazine, Left Wing magazine, 1,795

9:41

American adults, not registered voters, not

9:43

likely voters, adults, which means that

9:46

the polling pool is

9:48

not as intelligent as it

9:50

could be. First question, do

9:52

you have a favorable or unfavorable opinion of

9:55

Donald Trump? Favorable 43,

9:57

pretty high number there. Unfavorable

9:59

50,000. How about

10:02

Joe Biden? Favorable. Five

10:05

points lower than Trump. Unfavorable.

10:09

Five points higher. That's

10:11

interesting. Final question. Do you approve

10:13

or disapprove of the way Joe Biden's handling his

10:15

job as president? Approve 37%.

10:19

That's Jimmy Carter territory. Disapprove

10:22

59%. And

10:24

that is from a left wing organization, the

10:26

Economist. All right. Trump trial

10:28

was off today. As you may

10:31

know, seven out of the 12 juries have

10:33

been selected. Trump cannot get

10:35

a fair trial in New York City. Just

10:38

think back. Okay. So on

10:41

the first go around, no trial,

10:44

just the judge, a

10:46

woman named Eugene Carroll was awarded $83 million

10:49

for, I don't even know what it was.

10:52

Nobody really knows what it was because there was no

10:54

witnessing or, but she said Trump did something to her.

10:57

He gets 83 million. Okay.

10:59

On the second go around, which was

11:01

the business trial, civil action by the

11:03

state of New York, Trump has ordered

11:05

to pay about $500 million. Come

11:08

on. This is insane.

11:11

Never happened. Unprecedented. And

11:13

so, okay. Everybody

11:15

knows what this is. If I

11:17

go to Iran tomorrow, I'm

11:19

not going to get a fair trial. Do

11:22

we all have it? So

11:24

Trump's not going to get a fair trial and

11:26

this hush money thing. There's no way the judge

11:28

and the left wing

11:31

guy, Manhattan

11:33

hates Trump. You

11:35

know, they got seven jurors. Now, where do

11:38

those jurors come from? I don't know. Um,

11:42

and, uh, so that's all I can say about

11:44

this trial is just, he's not going to get

11:46

a fair trial. What the

11:48

Trump lawyers are doing is they're just accumulating

11:50

all of this and they'll take

11:52

it into the federal system on appeal. That's what's

11:55

going to happen. Bill

12:32

TV Plus. On

12:35

a border, National Guardsmen shot a

12:38

violent migrant trying to get in this

12:40

country. The guy was

12:43

stabbing two other migrants. That's nice. So

12:46

an Indiana National Guardsperson

12:48

shot this guy, and

12:51

the guy ran back into Mexico wounded.

12:53

We don't know any more than that now. The

12:56

two migrants the guy stabbed are

12:58

in the hospital. They will live.

13:01

So it is becoming increasingly

13:04

violent on the

13:06

southern border. In fact, since

13:08

October 23, 140

13:11

Border Patrol

13:15

agents have been assaulted, physically

13:17

assaulted. This is because

13:19

of Joe Biden. That's

13:21

why. So

13:24

again, everywhere you look,

13:27

Biden has created problems. Now

13:30

Mayorkas, Homeland Security Chief,

13:32

Alejandro, the House

13:34

is going to give the Senate

13:37

impeachment articles and Chuck

13:39

Schumer, the Democratic head of the Senate, he's

13:41

going to bury it. I

13:44

don't even know if they'll vote on it. Schumer goes, okay,

13:46

thanks, put it in the drawer. Which

13:48

he can do.

13:50

It's going nowhere. But that

13:53

allegedly happened today in Mayorkas.

13:56

Eric is just a flunky. He's

13:59

a McPolly. he does what he's told. Okay.

14:03

Now we're going to go to a very

14:06

fascinating story, but it is grisly and

14:08

terrible. Okay. So

14:12

I live about

14:14

10 miles from the

14:16

New York City line, Queens,

14:19

about 20 miles from the Midtown

14:22

Tunnel, going into Manhattan.

14:27

Manhattan is a violent place

14:30

now, full of anarchy and

14:33

disrespect. Criminals are running wild.

14:37

On April 4th, a short

14:39

time ago, a man

14:41

named Jean Zarzula

14:44

was in Grand Central Station.

14:46

There's Zarzula. He walked up

14:49

to a 54-year-old woman and

14:52

punched her in the face, breaking

14:54

her nose for no

14:56

reason. New

15:00

York City Judge Laurie

15:02

Peterson, notoriously soft on

15:04

violent crime, led

15:06

him out with no bail. Okay.

15:11

On April 13th,

15:13

nine days later,

15:15

Zarzula was again back in

15:17

Grand Central Station and

15:19

punched a nine-year-old girl

15:22

in the face. Nine

15:25

years old. Cops

15:28

caught him again. Second time they caught him.

15:31

Now he's being held on a hundred thousand cash

15:33

bail. So

15:35

the 54-year-old woman still recovering, broke a

15:37

nose, as I said. The nine-year-old girl

15:39

had to go to the hospital and

15:42

she'll never be the same. If you're

15:45

nine years old and a stranger comes over and punches

15:47

you in the face, you're never going to get over

15:49

that, ever. And

15:53

the only reason that Zarzula

15:55

was able to do that was

15:57

because Judge Laurie Peterson led him

15:59

out. after

16:02

he punched a 54-year-old woman for

16:04

no reason. This

16:07

is beyond disgraceful. Maury

16:09

Peterson should resign right now, but

16:12

she doesn't care. So what?

16:16

An elderly woman, middle-aged

16:19

woman, nine-year-old girl, punched?

16:21

I don't care. Now

16:24

she should be impeached, but who's going to

16:26

do it? Democrats control

16:28

the city and state of New York. Joining

16:32

us now from New York

16:34

City is Detective Paul DiGiacomo.

16:37

He is the president

16:39

of the Detectives Endowment

16:42

Association. I

16:45

didn't see you at the funeral of Detective

16:48

Diller. Were you there at the funeral? Absolutely.

16:52

Yes, I was there. I assume

16:54

you were. And you saw

16:56

the anger of the people outside, 10,000 people

16:59

outside St. Rose Church. I'm sure

17:01

you saw it because it was

17:03

powerful, right? Absolutely,

17:06

yes. And I'm sure you saw the

17:09

display of the 6,000 police

17:12

officers from all over the country who

17:14

came to show respect to the Diller

17:17

family. I'm sure you saw that, correct?

17:20

Yes, I did. Okay. So

17:23

now we are in a situation where 34,000

17:27

New York City police officers are

17:31

subjected to anarchy every

17:33

day putting their lives in danger.

17:36

Detective Diller was 31 years old with a

17:39

one-year-old baby. What

17:43

do the rank and

17:45

file, the police officers

17:48

themselves, who can

17:50

only make arrests and protect, okay?

17:54

Generally, what are they thinking,

17:56

Detective? Well,

17:59

they lost confidence. in our government because

18:02

the Senate, the Assembly and the

18:04

City Council, they've enacted laws that

18:06

further tie the hands of the

18:08

police and are more concerned with

18:10

the rights of the criminal government than the

18:12

rights of the victims of crime. All

18:14

right. But you say they've lost confidence.

18:17

Why does that matter? Does that affect

18:19

the job they do when they go

18:21

out every day? Are

18:23

they bitter, cynical? Have

18:26

they changed their job

18:29

behavior? Give me a

18:31

specific. What's going on on the street?

18:34

Well, basically, they're making the arrest. We're taking

18:36

thousands and thousands of guns off the

18:38

street every day. Just for

18:41

them, the individuals that possess them to

18:43

be let out right away and to

18:45

victimize the people of the city again. The

18:48

problem is that the police department is doing

18:50

their part. We need the criminal

18:52

justice department to do their part

18:55

and keep these violent criminals behind the

18:57

law. All

19:00

right. Are you seeing

19:02

any? The

19:05

City Council of New York

19:07

generally despises New

19:09

York City police officers. The

19:12

legislature in Albany, okay,

19:18

look at Hasty, despises

19:21

your crew. The Attorney General

19:23

of this state has

19:26

tied the hands of

19:29

New York City police officers, Letitia

19:32

James, who is about

19:34

10 feet from me at

19:36

the funeral of Detective

19:38

Diller. Is

19:40

there bitterness seeping in

19:42

to the

19:45

individual officers in New York

19:47

City? Oh,

19:49

absolutely. The confidence level and

19:51

the support by

19:53

the elected officials are really taking a toll

19:55

on the police on the street. Everyone

19:58

that they confront now is a competent Situations

20:01

are the our hands are tied

20:03

as far as what you can do and when you can do

20:05

it and how you could do it And you

20:08

don't have the backing of the government when you

20:10

don't have the backing of the government The

20:12

police will not work effectively All

20:15

right Would you say

20:17

that morale is at an all-time

20:20

low? among the

20:22

NYPD By

20:24

41 years in the NYPD. This is the lowest

20:26

I've ever seen mine Would

20:29

you say that New

20:31

York City is now a dangerous

20:33

place because of the far-left politics?

20:39

Would you say there is anybody

20:42

trying to solve this problem? Is

20:44

the governor Hochul trying to solve

20:46

the problem is the mayor

20:48

of New York City trying to solve the

20:50

problem? Well, actually

20:53

the mayor of New York City agrees

20:55

without without thoughts. It's the council

20:58

That's really stopping all

21:00

the pro policing

21:02

legislation and and already

21:05

sending the assembly Just continue to

21:07

try and enact laws to fight hands of

21:09

the police and put the good war biting

21:11

citizens of New York City in harm's way

21:14

Alright last question you've been on the

21:16

job 41 years with rank

21:19

and file doing detective work and now

21:21

in a union In

21:24

your opinion why has the

21:26

public not risen up you

21:29

don't see demonstrations You

21:31

don't see them in favor of the police

21:33

and against these progressive politicians.

21:36

They don't exist Why

21:38

not? Because everybody

21:40

that cared left and are leaving an alarming

21:42

rate people leaving in New York City and

21:44

New York State and an alarming rate detectives

21:49

People She's

21:53

already timing and leaving. So

21:55

you think they're scared and I agree with

21:57

that partly but I don't think there's another

22:00

leadership on the other side that

22:02

organizes these kinds of things because

22:04

that has to happen. Alright

22:06

detective thanks very much for your time, appreciate it.

22:09

We are all witnessing history and most of us

22:12

don't even know it. Important

22:14

history. So

22:17

the media in America

22:19

on television is

22:22

disintegrating. All of it. All

22:25

of it. So you're

22:27

harking back to the days of all

22:29

in the family, Mary Tyler Moore, Bonanza

22:32

even earlier than that, Magnum

22:34

PI, you know on and on and

22:36

on and on. Now

22:39

if a television show in prime time gets

22:41

5 million viewers that's a

22:44

hit. If

22:46

a newscast in prime time gets

22:49

2 million viewers that's

22:51

a hit and you

22:54

don't get any viewers, Americans

22:57

aged 25 to 54, they're

22:59

gone. Vanished into

23:02

the world of cyberspace

23:04

and social media and they're

23:06

not coming back. And

23:09

the reason that we are watching this and

23:11

again most people don't even know this. The

23:14

reason is that number one

23:16

the news presentations generally speaking are

23:18

so boring it's impossible for younger

23:21

people to watch them. It's

23:24

impossible. That's how boring they are.

23:27

Okay the entertainment is

23:29

so politically correct and woke with

23:31

one exception, Blue Bloods

23:34

on CBS. Okay that is

23:36

the best show on television by

23:39

far as the only show that I

23:41

watch. I don't watch 60 Minutes anymore

23:44

because I don't know who these people are and they're

23:46

droning on and on. They don't get to the point.

23:49

I mean Wallace and Safer and those guys

23:51

they were really good. These

23:54

people are professional on 60 Minutes but they're

23:56

not drawing me in. I'm sorry. Anyway

24:01

If you are a television

24:03

watcher, network television,

24:06

you know the difference. You've seen

24:08

the deterioration and it's continuing now.

24:10

Now they have an island

24:13

that you go to where they have a

24:15

deal or no deal on the island. Whatever

24:17

garbage is thrown out is

24:19

meant for people who have no

24:22

ability to think. It's

24:25

people singing songs, it's these

24:29

people like this. And

24:31

the news presentations as I said

24:33

are so stupefyingly dull and in

24:35

many cases dishonest that

24:37

intelligent people are going, I don't know how to watch this. So

24:42

our go-to media guy is

24:44

named Bernie Goldberg. You

24:46

may have heard about Bernie. He

24:49

wrote a book way back after

24:52

he left CBS News called Bias.

24:54

And he was the first one,

24:57

even before me, to

25:00

really pinpoint the

25:02

trend in American newsrooms

25:05

on television to the left. And

25:07

he documented because he was at

25:09

CBS News since U.S. Grant was

25:11

president. I mean Bernie has been

25:13

around. So he knew what

25:16

it was in the beginning and then what it

25:18

turned into. Now he wrote

25:20

Bias, huge bestseller, after he left

25:23

CBS. But before he left it,

25:26

CBS News, he wrote an article in

25:28

a Wall Street Journal pretty much saying

25:30

that and then took that article and

25:34

turned it into a book. After he

25:36

wrote the article in the

25:38

Wall Street Journal, Dan Rather targeted

25:40

Bernie Goldberg. And

25:43

I know that because I worked for Rather. I

25:45

was there when Bernie was there. Bernie was a much

25:47

bigger star at CBS than I was, which was grossly

25:49

unfair. But I know

25:51

that. And Rather targeted Goldberg

25:53

and Goldberg was frozen out on how

25:55

to leave the company. Now

25:57

we have a similar situation at a lower level. level

26:00

NPR. So

26:03

there's a guy, Ory

26:05

Berliner, an executive,

26:08

who basically came out and said, NPR

26:12

is left and doesn't cover the

26:14

news responsibly. Here is Ory's quote,

26:17

An open-minded spirit no longer exists within

26:19

this NPR. And now predictably, we

26:22

don't have an audience that reflects America.

26:24

That wouldn't be a problem for an openly polemical

26:27

news outlet serving a niche

26:29

audience. But for NPR, which

26:31

purports to consider all things,

26:33

it's devastating both for its journalism

26:35

and its model, unquote. Well,

26:38

for writing that, Ory got suspended

26:40

and today he quit

26:42

NPR. Joining us now from

26:46

North Carolina is the aforementioned

26:49

media expert Bernard Goldberg.

26:52

How about that for Lee? Pretty good? You

26:55

got it all right and you're one of the

26:57

few people who's reporting

26:59

on Ory Berliner who actually

27:01

remembered that in 1996 I did

27:04

what he did in 2024. Exactly. There was no difference.

27:06

And Berliner, like

27:14

you, was personally

27:16

offended because he thought

27:18

it was unfair. He thinks it's

27:21

unfair, right? Exactly.

27:24

So after all this time,

27:26

the left-wing media has gotten way more

27:28

left than it was when you and

27:30

I were at CBS News, I believe,

27:33

and way more intolerant. Well,

27:35

I don't know about that because you were iced.

27:38

And that must have really been difficult for you, right? Well,

27:42

I was iced in a social way

27:44

more than a journalistic way. Rather

27:47

than want any part of me, you're right about that.

27:50

But I had friends who didn't want

27:52

to be seen within the same zip

27:54

code as me because that might get

27:57

word back to Dan Rather and who knows what might

27:59

happen there. But I didn't

28:01

get suspended. I didn't get fired.

28:05

And I think one of the reasons is Michael

28:07

Jordan came to my defense. Not

28:11

that Michael Jordan. Michael

28:14

Jordan was the CEO of Westinghouse,

28:16

the company that owned CBS at

28:18

the time. And he

28:21

gave an interview to a magazine in

28:24

which he said, I understand what

28:26

Bernie Goldberg said, and he's

28:29

gone to something. And I think

28:31

that saved me from being suspended

28:33

or worse at CBS.

28:36

Why then, four years after you wrote the

28:38

journal article, did you leave? I mean, you

28:40

were a star at CBS. They were giving

28:42

you all good assignments. Because

28:45

60 Minutes 2 came along. And

28:49

while some people in the front office

28:51

said, this is a

28:53

quote, it's a no brainer that Bernie should be on

28:55

that show. Because rather

28:57

was the chief correspondent on that show. I got

28:59

iced out of that show and I said, I've

29:01

had enough of this crap. And

29:03

I called and I quit. Was that

29:06

a wise move in hindsight? That's

29:09

a very interesting question. In hindsight, the

29:12

best move I've ever made because I wound

29:14

up on your show. I

29:17

wrote five books. None of that would

29:19

have happened if I didn't quit.

29:23

I would have been at CBS and then they would

29:25

have dumped me like they dumped a whole bunch of

29:27

other people. And I don't know where

29:29

I'd be today. I took a chance when I quit. I

29:32

took a huge chance. But

29:35

it was the best move I ever made.

29:37

Okay, I'm glad it worked out. One more

29:39

thing on this and then we'll go into

29:41

ABC News. It's

29:43

possible that people didn't want to be seen

29:45

with you because you're you. Keep

29:51

shot alert. I've

29:56

had dinner with Goldberg. I know he

29:58

has trouble with the fork. Okay,

30:00

let's go to ABC News. So that's CBS

30:03

News and NPR. Now

30:05

we're over at ABC. ABC

30:07

News runs the view.

30:11

It's incredible. But ABC

30:13

News is in charge of the

30:15

view, not ABC Entertainment. If it

30:17

were Entertainment, I'd have no beef at all. I

30:20

wouldn't care what they did. But with news,

30:23

it's a little bit different. So the

30:26

ladies on the view are all rooting

30:29

for a criminal conviction for

30:32

Donald Trump. They're rooting.

30:35

Roll the tape. They are never

30:37

going to find someone that doesn't know

30:39

about the former twice impeached loser president,

30:41

right? No one's, no, they're never gonna

30:43

find that. But what I did find

30:45

also interesting about my Super Bowl is

30:47

that the legal team

30:49

will be checking the jurors social media

30:51

profiles to see if they can assess

30:53

the truthfulness and intention of what they

30:55

said during Bois d'Hirre, which is their questioning.

30:58

And I think that's really, really important

31:00

because if you start liking Trump's and

31:02

you follow Trump's stuff on social media,

31:05

are you going to, can you be impartial? Yeah,

31:11

but the others, it's okay if you

31:13

hate her. But when she refers to

31:15

Super Bowl, she means Ms.

31:18

Hostin does. And I gave Ms. Hostin her start on

31:20

television, by the way, and I like her as

31:23

a person. Her

31:25

Super Bowl is a Trump conviction. So

31:27

my question to you Goldberg is this, how

31:31

can ABC News run this operation

31:33

and then tell the American people

31:35

it's fair? The,

31:38

I don't know, but the only thing

31:40

I could conjecture from this is

31:42

that it is a successful show in

31:44

terms of daytime ratings.

31:47

They pay their people, Whoopi

31:49

Goldberg and Joy Behar and the others,

31:51

millions and millions of dollars. So

31:53

they must be making a lot of money the show. And

31:58

they, maybe that money is used to

32:00

finance other things at ABC News.

32:03

Maybe that money is used to finance

32:05

coverage of the war in Ukraine and

32:08

the war in Gaza. But

32:10

I worked for CBS News when Walter

32:13

Cronkite was the anchor and then later

32:15

Dan Rather. And I can't imagine,

32:17

and I don't think, well, I'll let you

32:19

speak for yourself, Bill, but I

32:21

can't imagine that's CBS News

32:24

allowing a show like that to

32:27

be part of CBS News. It

32:29

besmirches the operation. I

32:31

was working for Peter Jennings. Jennings would

32:33

have never, ever, and Jennings

32:35

was powerful, ever allowed

32:38

that in a million years. And then you

32:40

have George Stephanopoulos, who is deemed

32:42

the top news correspondent

32:44

at ABC News, what he

32:46

is obviously a democratic

32:49

activist. I mean,

32:51

so I think we can both conclude

32:53

that all standards of fairness

32:56

have collapsed at the network level.

32:58

Would that be fair to say?

33:01

Well, all

33:04

standards of fairness. I mean, they've

33:06

been liberal, they are liberal, and

33:09

they will continue to be liberal that much. I'll

33:12

go that far. But as far

33:14

as the view is concerned, it's gotta be,

33:16

it's gotta be, nobody thinks of

33:18

the view as part of ABC

33:20

News. Right, but it is. People

33:23

don't think of it in those terms, but it

33:25

should never, ever happen.

33:28

It shouldn't happen. And people

33:30

should know only two million, a

33:32

little more than two million people

33:34

a day watch the program. It's

33:36

nothing. It's infinitesimal.

33:39

I was going to CNN, we'll wrap this up. So

33:42

CNN thought that a new program.

33:46

What was that? It must be making some

33:48

money. Yeah, it makes a little money

33:50

because they just sit around on a stage and

33:52

it doesn't have a big overhead, but

33:55

it's not well watched

33:57

in comparison to what you

33:59

said. to be on. Okay,

34:01

CNN. So they hired

34:03

Gail King, who is a CBS

34:06

correspondent and anchors to CBS Morning

34:08

News, and they hired Charles Barkley,

34:11

who's a basketball analyst. They put

34:13

them together. This is CNN six

34:16

months ago, hoping that

34:18

one show out of all of

34:20

their shows could break out and

34:22

attract attention in an audience. It

34:25

failed dismally. The show

34:27

was canceled yesterday. Okay,

34:31

I know most of my viewers have

34:33

never seen the show on CNN. Here's

34:36

a clip. Charles, wait,

34:38

you believe in aliens? No, you don't. But I

34:40

haven't seen one. I haven't

34:42

seen one. Okay, but I presume you can know something

34:45

is true, even if you have never seen it. Exactly.

34:47

Well, dude, somebody else. That's a good point, Neil. Wait,

34:49

first of all, that's not a good point. It is.

34:51

You are not the measure of what is true in

34:53

the world. Well, somebody else would have told me. Hey,

34:56

hey, hey, hey,

34:58

hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey,

35:01

when they say take me to your leader, they're gonna come to you.

35:03

No, I just want to say this. Well,

35:05

I told you it was an honor and a privilege to

35:07

meet you. Okay. But if we had a

35:09

person coming who met an alien, we wouldn't have

35:12

you on the show. Okay,

35:15

so it was a fairly

35:18

entertaining situation. And Barkley, the

35:22

matchup with Miss King, who's

35:24

cautious, very cautious with

35:28

Barkley's a bomb thrower, that wasn't the

35:30

best matchup. You need somebody

35:32

to go after Barkley to provoke him.

35:34

And that's how you get ratings. But

35:37

I'm going to submit that whatever

35:40

CNN puts on will fail, because

35:42

its brand is so damaged. And

35:45

it's damaged because of their presidential

35:48

coverage at Donald Trump. It's

35:50

shot. And it's not coming

35:53

back. Do you disagree? You

35:56

know, I've been thinking about this. You

35:59

know, in In just about every town, there's

36:01

a restaurant that closes after a while,

36:04

and in that same very

36:07

same location, another restaurant comes

36:09

in, and that fails. And

36:12

then a third restaurant comes into the very

36:14

same location, and that one goes

36:16

under. CNN is

36:19

like a bad location. It

36:22

just doesn't, it isn't

36:25

hot like MSNBC with

36:27

its outlandish

36:30

progressive views. It

36:32

isn't conservative like

36:34

Fox. It's sort

36:37

of like old-fashioned liberal. And

36:39

in the United States of entertainment, old-fashioned

36:42

liberal doesn't cut it anymore. And

36:46

you're onto something, certainly, with your

36:49

analysis that they went after

36:51

Donald Trump during the presidential election. Nobody

36:55

is surprised when MSNBC does that. Nobody

36:59

is surprised when Fox fawns

37:02

over Donald Trump. That's expected.

37:05

CNN was sort of in the middle. It

37:07

was always liberal, but it was in the

37:09

middle. And when it went, it

37:12

went all in on, all

37:14

in against Donald Trump. That

37:16

did not help the brand. That became

37:18

the location like the bad

37:20

restaurants. That became the location where

37:23

almost nothing works anymore. All

37:25

right, good analysis. Bernie Goldberg, make

37:28

him happy. Now I'm making a humanitarian

37:30

appeal now, so let me do it.

37:34

You made it very good. Bernard Goldberg

37:36

happy. I don't think that's too much

37:38

to ask. He just gave us a good seven

37:40

minutes, right? Make him happy. And

37:43

it's very easy to do that. You go

37:45

to bernardgolberg.com. And he's

37:47

happy. So let's all

37:50

do that in response

37:52

to Goldberg's appearance today. Does that make sense

37:54

to everybody? Yes, it does. All right, Goldberg.

37:56

We'll see you soon. Thanks for the

37:58

good segment. Some

38:02

people just know it's easy to get

38:04

Allstate's best price online. They

38:07

also know where to get half-off pizzas on

38:09

Mondays, courtside seats

38:11

38:15

they know you can easily get Allstate's

Biden's immigration policy can only be considered

38:40

a blunder. Remember, we did the three

the three worst. That's what Nathan

immigration policy can only be considered a blunder

39:01

if it was designed for the purpose of

39:03

that backfire. In this case,

39:06

it is not a blunder because it

39:08

is accomplishing exactly what Biden's handlers want

39:10

to dilute the American population with new

39:12

democratic voters from foreign

39:14

countries. No. Okay.

39:18

We are talking about adverse

39:20

effects on America,

39:23

not politics. Okay. Yeah,

39:27

you might be right. That's the reason, but it doesn't

39:29

have to do with a blunder. Opening

39:32

the southern border hurts

39:34

America in a drastic

39:37

way, and

39:39

that's why it's one of the three. Danley

39:44

Gudemamas, Wachuca

39:47

City, Arizona. I know I blew

39:49

the city. Okay. Wachuca,

39:52

Wachuca City. There we go.

39:55

Arizona. Billor, someone whose family migrated

39:58

here for Central America, it frightens me. See

40:00

millions of people entering the country on vetted. We

40:03

live in an era of such a vision, a hatred, hatred for

40:05

the U.S., as you see it in recent protests.

40:09

I'm afraid it's a matter of time before we get

40:11

a terror attack. I do not speculate on that.

40:14

If there is a terror attack tied back to

40:17

the southern border, that will

40:19

change politics in this country. All

40:22

I can say, Susan Parker, Warwick, Rhode

40:24

Island, I agree with you,

40:26

O'Reilly, about Kamala Harris and her comment

40:29

about President Trump implementing a national

40:31

abortion ban. Harris is

40:33

a moron, and she's dishonest as well,

40:35

in addition to be not very bright.

40:39

I personally believe the Supreme Court did the correct thing

40:41

sending the abortion issue back to the state, so do

40:43

I. Let the

40:45

folks hold on. Lynn

40:51

Donaldson, St. Petersburg, Florida.

40:54

O'Reilly, you spoke about sending luggage by

40:56

UPS. Yes, I did. I

40:58

scorched UPS. They

41:01

deserved it. But

41:03

here's Lynn's tip. There's

41:06

actually a company

41:09

called luggageforward.com that

41:12

I find reliable. Wow, thank you. We love

41:14

these tips. luggageforward.com.

41:19

Now you got to check it out. See

41:21

what their rates are. There

41:25

are reviews of all of these

41:27

things on Yelp, right? Y-E-L-P, Yelp.

41:30

Never really been on Yelp, but people send

41:32

me stuff from it. Maurice,

41:35

concierge member, and we hope everybody

41:37

considers that. This is an insurance

41:39

policy for your life. Bad

41:42

things will happen to you. Inevitable.

41:45

No one escapes. If

41:47

you are a concierge member to

41:49

BillO'Reilly.com, we will help you. conservative,

42:00

I abhor my tax money going to

42:02

these outlets. If Republicans

42:04

take control of Congress next year, I hope

42:06

they do away with that funding. You

42:10

know, I think they could target

42:12

the funding a little bit better into

42:16

you can only spend money

42:19

on projects that are

42:22

cultural, not political. I

42:25

think there's a way to do this. Eileen,

42:29

what language do they speak in

42:31

Malta? They speak

42:33

Maltese and

42:35

English. The English occupied

42:37

the island nation for

42:40

many years. Christine,

42:43

concierge, remember, thank you, Christine. Thanks

42:47

for sharing pictures and information of Malta. I

42:49

never paid attention to the country before. It's

42:51

beautiful and interesting. Yes, it is. So

42:55

if you're going over to Italy, you know,

42:57

you can jump down to Malta from Rome pretty easy

42:59

if you want to spend a day or two. Okay.

43:03

Okay, so we have a brand new mug that we

43:05

want you to consider for Mothers and Fathers Day. It

43:08

is a not woke.

43:12

Not woke. Love it. And

43:17

my idea is to twin

43:19

the not woke mug with

43:22

the self-reliance mug, two

43:25

of them for dad or mom.

43:28

In addition, if you re-up

43:30

or sign up for premium

43:32

membership, including concierge on bill

43:34

O'Reilly.com, you get a mug

43:36

free if you don't want a book. This

43:39

is a win across the board. We

43:42

got a Father's Day book bundle. You might want to tie into

43:44

this. Killing the witches,

43:46

killing the legends, killing the killers, killing the

43:48

mob, killing Crazy Horse, 33% off all of them.

43:52

And we will deliver it so you'll have plenty of

43:54

time. And of course, confronting

43:56

the President's out September 10th. Huge

43:59

advance sale on the website. this book, I

44:01

guarantee this

44:03

will be perhaps

44:07

the best book you have ever read. You will learn

44:09

more than any other book you've ever read. I guarantee

44:11

that. Where to today do

44:13

not be a SOP. S-O-P.

44:18

Back with the final thought in a moment. Okay,

44:21

here is the final thought of the day. As

44:23

you may know, I run three corporations, which

44:26

means we got people working for me

44:28

and we have to negotiate deals with

44:30

vendors and we have to do all

44:32

kinds of things. So I

44:35

have business people to do that, but I

44:37

have to sign off on all the deals.

44:39

And one of the things

44:41

that I bring into all

44:43

negotiations is

44:46

compassion. Everybody

44:48

is different. Every circumstance is

44:50

different. And we try to find the

44:54

people that we're dealing with, what

44:57

they are going through. Now, most

44:59

business people are just business. Remember

45:01

this scene in The Godfather, Tom Hagen,

45:04

Robert DeBell? Business is not personal, Sonny.

45:06

To me, it's personal. So

45:09

I feel as a Christian, I have

45:12

an obligation to bring compassion to

45:14

my business. Now, that doesn't mean

45:17

I'm a namby-pamby. Great word. All

45:19

right, I'm that. You screw up. I'm

45:23

on it. But

45:27

in your life, whether you're a business person or

45:29

personal person, compassion should be up

45:31

there, particularly if

45:33

you're a judgmental person like I am. Compassion

45:37

is a main theme of

45:39

the New Testament. Thank

45:42
