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.

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

12:35
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
at nosebleed prices, and
38:15
they know you can easily get Allstate's
38:17
lowest price on auto insurance at allstate.com.
38:23
Prices vary, including based on how you buy.
38:25
Subject to terms, conditions, and availability. Allstate Fire
38:27
and Casualty Insurance Company and affiliates, Northbrook,
38:30
Illinois. Let's go
38:32
to the mail. We got Nathan
38:34
Sinander, Milburn, Florida. Bill
38:37
Biden's immigration policy can only be considered
38:40
a blunder. Remember, we did the three
38:42
worst presidential blunders last
38:45
night. If you missed it and
38:47
you're a premium member, concierge member,
38:49
you can get it anytime. I
38:53
think we have it on billoriley.com, but we did
38:55
the three worst. That's what Nathan
38:57
is referring to. Biden's
38:59
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

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
you for watching and listening to The No Spin News.
