As Americans prepare to celebrate Independence Day, Bill O’Reilly—bestselling author and host of No Spin News—returns to discuss his upcoming book, Confronting Evil: Assessing the Worst of the Worst. O’Reilly pulls no punches as he unpacks the Diddy trial, the rise of the Organized Blackout Boycott (OBBB), and a new Gallup poll revealing record-low levels of patriotism among young Americans.
O’Reilly sounds the alarm on what he calls the "dumb factor" driving national disillusionment, the collapse of history education in public schools, and the self-centered mindset undermining American greatness. He contrasts Gen Z’s skepticism with the enduring pride of baby boomers, reflecting on the sacrifices made by generations past to secure freedom and opportunity.
This fiery, unfiltered conversation is a wake-up call for anyone concerned about the direction of the country—and a reminder of why America is still worth defending.

Speaker 1 (00:28):
All right, Leonard skinnered simpleman. That can only mean one
thing on this radio program, and that is all things
self proclaimed simple man. That is all things Bill O'Reilly,
all things Bill O'Reilly at billoreilly dot com. Mister O'Reilly, sir,
I have three topics of discussion today. How are you, sir?
Speaker 2 (00:46):
I'm okay. Thank you for asking, Annie, I am all right, okay.
Speaker 1 (00:50):
So you in your commentary you quoted the Gallup pole.
I saw. I believe it was the pew pole. Now
it was Gallup Also, sorry, I think we're looking at
the same one. How proud are you, because Friday is
the fourth of July? How proud are you to be
an American? Extremely proud, very proud, moderately proud, only a
(01:10):
little proud or not proud, not at all proud. And
here's the fascinating numbers as you look at it here.
Republicans have been very, very consistent. Republicans have always been
ninety percent plus, with the exception of the Biden years,
where they were in the mid to upper eighties. Democrats
(01:33):
in the Trump years, you know, went down. They were
a little above forty percent at one point. If you
go back to two thousand and one. They were in
the actually low nineties at one point, and by two
thousand and fifteen. I'm not sure why they would or
I'm sorry. Two thousand and seven they were down to
like seventy five percent. Now they're down to thirty six percent.
(01:56):
Republicans that are very healthy ninety two percent. Bill, I
think it's a no brainer. You don't have to think
deeply about this. You just need to open your eyes
and look around the world. We live in the greatest
country God ever gave man, and liberty and freedom has
led to prosperity. Sect liberty and freedom has led to
prosperity second and none.
Speaker 2 (02:18):
Okay, well, let me analyst from a historian's point of
view rather than a party APPARATCHI because I'm not associated
with any party. The Democratic Party right now sells grievance.
That's what they do. So you're getting screwed, isn't it.
Speaker 1 (02:35):
Isn't it deeper than that? Aren't they also selling hate?
Speaker 2 (02:38):
Well, let me stair ship it here. So they're selling grievance.
That's how Mandani won the nomination in the Democratic primary
in New York. You're getting screwed. The billionaires. Bernie Sanders
on and on and on and on. The younger Americans
who have no frame of reference. It's an easier sell
in that crew because you have to struggle in this country,
(03:02):
in our system to be successful. Both you and I
had the lowest level jobs we could have, and we
worked our way up to the top. And how it's done.
But it wasn't easy. It was painful.
Speaker 3 (03:13):
Correct, Am I correct here? No?
Speaker 1 (03:15):
I think number one, nothing in life is easy. Number
two is the best thing that ever happened to me,
paper boy, dishwasher, cook construction. Ten years in restaurants, ten
years in construction. No, wasn't easy.
Speaker 2 (03:28):
Okay, So you and I understand that the capitalisting system
requires a bit of pain and discipline to succeed. The
younger people are only experiencing the pain. They don't know
if they're going to succeed or not. So when the
Charlatans come across and say, oh, you deserve success, we'll
(03:49):
give you success. We'll give you free rent, we'll give
you this, we'll give you that day, buy it. And
if those people aren't in power, which they're not, then
the younger people are disenchanted. That's number one. That's the
historical that's why the Democratic Party's proud number is so low. See,
younger people in the party don't understand what it takes
(04:13):
to succeed in capitalism. Number two, I've been to eighty
six countries. I just cut back from China. I know
the world, and there's nobody that comes close.
Speaker 1 (04:24):
And by the way, there is a follow up to
that bill o'relly has since been banned from eighty six countries,
but go ahead.
Speaker 2 (04:30):
Yeah, I was only deported by half of them, so
I know, I know, I've been there. I've seen it.
Even Great Britain, where I lived for a year, our
staunchest ally, isn't anywhere near the opportunity that you have
in America because when you're sixteen, you got to take
(04:52):
a test. All British school children take it, and if
you don't score a row in a test, you don't
go to college because it's funded by the government and
most people can't afford private college there. So again, Americans
don't understand any of that. I'm not being super sillious
word of the day, condescending telling you the truth. They
(05:12):
don't know. And then when you get into the history
of it, how millions of Americans have sacrifice their lives,
you have their legs blown off to try to bring
freedom to other people who didn't have it. And you
turn around and you say you're not proud of your country.
That's just ignorance.
Speaker 1 (05:32):
Let me ask you about There's an article on the
New York Post. The Democratic Party we knew died the
same way it lived with fear and hate. I look
at the Democratic Party now, it is there's no resemblance
to the Democratic Party that we knew most of the
years we've been in this industry. Now, I do think
(05:56):
that a lot of people hid their true beliefs and
that towards socialism and incremental socialism, etc. But they were
not as audacious word of the day as this current
group of Democratic leaders. If you look at Marxist Mumdanni
as one example, then you can look at Jasmine Crockett.
(06:17):
Then you can look at AOC, Then you can look
at the Squad. Then you can look at Grandpa Bernie
and Pocahontas. And if you then look closely at the
Democratic leadership, Chuck Schumer, for example, why isn't Chuck Schumer
condemning Marxist Donnie? Why isn't he condemning him because he's
(06:38):
afraid of him. Well, he's scared to death that AOC
is going to primary him. And if she does, I
believe she would win in your state of New York.
And you can correct me if you think I'm wrong.
I don't think I am I think I have a
pretty good finger on the pulse of politics in the country.
And what scares me is this is now the most
(06:59):
radical eyed party. A couple of examples. You know, Kamala Harris,
their presidential candidate, wanted taxpayer funded sex change operations for
illegals and for convicts. A running mate wanted under affirming
care without parental consent. He wanted taxpayer funded tuition for
illegals in his state. He wanted tampon's foot in grammar
(07:22):
school boys' bathrooms. Bill, you add to that, DEI, you
add to that woke, You add to that, you know,
cradle to grave, womb to the tomb, Green new Deal.
And this is not Bill Clinton's Democratic Party anymore.
Speaker 2 (07:37):
Sure, And Clinton is the guy who instituted referry for
him where he had a lip for work or you
cut off. And so the Democrats who supported that, they
turned around, Oh no, you can't do it. Now. But
what I believe happened in Democratic Party is they were bought.
(07:57):
The party was bought by the George Euros billionaire Hollywood
people that pump an enormous amount of money into the
political action committees of very far left candidates, Right Bragg
in New York and people like that. So the party
was bought. They sold it, whereas in Clinton Obama that
(08:19):
it started there. That's where the big money started to
come into the radical left under Obama. So it is
a different party. They've sold their soul and I don't
see that changing anytime soon. I don't see one moderate policy,
not one coming out of the Democratic Party. They don't
(08:39):
even want to get working class people in America a
tax break in the sense of keeping the twenty seventeen
tax rates. They want it to rise. Really, that's just insane.
So they sold it, Hannity, they sold it.
Speaker 1 (09:00):
So now we're on issue number three and it has
to do with now the Senate barely but they got
it through pass this one big, beautiful bill, and now
it's going to the House and there's a lot of
consternation and anger. I predict eventually, maybe not this week,
but maybe next week. At some point. I believe it's
(09:20):
going to pass because I think Donald Trump is going
to insist that these guys pass it. And let me
be very clear, there's not everything in there that I
like at all. You will get a tax benefit in
this living in New York that I don't think you deserve,
the state and local tax deduction, the rewards that what's that?
Speaker 2 (09:39):
I make too much money, I don't get anything. But
that's all right. I don't need it.
Speaker 1 (09:42):
Now you'll get you'll get the forty thousand, but it's
not going to impact your life very much. You know,
you're too rich a Republican. But here's here's what I see,
and here's how I look at it. When you have
such a slim majority and you have to do things
to get votes, it's unfortunate, but it's the way the
sausage is made. And I've seen this my entire career,
(10:04):
without exception, even when Ronald Reagan was president. And here's
where we find ourselves. And if I'm a Republican I'm
looking at I get to tell my constituents that Democrats
voted for the largest tax increase in American history, voted
for no tax on tips and overtime and Social Security,
(10:25):
and it frustrates me that people can't see the big picture.
And you know, when I did these town halls with
the House and the Senate, the first thing I said is,
you all know you're not going to get everything you want.
Your majority is too thin, it is too small. Am
I right? Or are they right to fight it? And
then ultimately, you know, if they win, then the American
(10:46):
people get the largest tax increase in history.
Speaker 2 (10:49):
Well, I think they're right to fight it, but in
the end they have to work for the welfare of
the country, which would be to pass the Bear because
if you don't pass it, country goes into a recession
and the midterms go the Democrats way. So that's a
simple equation. But I don't mind people fighting for a
better bill. I think that's what we all should do.
(11:10):
Republicans bought Markowski in the Senate. They brought her, you
know that, as you pointed out, and going on in
earnest since World War Two. It really started then, but
it's been present since George Washington to some degree. So
the Republicans brought her and won. They'll have to do
(11:32):
the same thing in the House. Right now.
Speaker 1 (11:34):
Well, the problem is is, look I was up all night,
not last night, the night before, and at two in
the morning, at four in the morning, at five in
the morning, I'm checking in. It wasn't until eight o'clock
in the morning that I found out that they had
the votes to pass it. And all I kept getting
was feedback that they didn't have the votes. If the
(11:57):
House changes it, that means it has to go back
to the Senate, back to the House. At some point
this has to end. And they're at a point where
I think Republicans don't understand how to take wins and
then come back for the next piece. They still have
the majority.
Speaker 2 (12:14):
Yeah, and look, you interrupted me, but I was going
to go down that road. So you have to pass
it now if you're a Republican in Congress, because if
you don't, you're basically nailing your own party, okay, and
you can't justify that. So you will get another chance
(12:37):
to have legislation. For example, I support separate legislation on
dreamers in America. I support that as a very good
article by Donald Grant used to publish the Washington Post
when it was a decent newspaper, saying, look, these people
were dragged here. It's no fault of their own should
(12:57):
not be punishing them. Let's have separate legis for them.
I support them.
Speaker 1 (13:02):
By the way, there is just so you know, Donald
Trump is working on deportation exemptions. Part of it would
include illegal farm and hospitality workers and people that you're
mentioning that maybe through no fault of their own, came
here are participating, paying taxes, working, etca no problems. You know,
(13:24):
if you hear twenty years and you've not gotten in
trouble and you pay your taxes, okay, you know you're
not the illegals that we're generally talking about.
Speaker 2 (13:33):
I think that, Look, you know better than me because
you talk to these people, and nobody ever wants to
talk to me, So I have a disadvantage. When you
said you think it'll get done, it's obvious that it
has to get done. And if any Republican Congression does
not see that, then they don't deserve to be in
(13:55):
Congress because you're giving the Democrats and that party is
on the rule sannity. You know what, I know it
Democratic Party.
Speaker 1 (14:03):
That's why they should take to win and go home
and say they voted to raise your taxes. They won't
secure your borders. They don't care about working men and women.
They don't care. They're the appeasement party, they don't care
about national defense and the party of do nothing radical
you know, Marxist Mundanmi's Wandani's and AOC's.
Speaker 2 (14:23):
Hey, you can say that the Republican Party has now
given the working people in America more money if.
Speaker 3 (14:31):
You pass exactly that's it. That's all, by the way.
Speaker 1 (14:35):
And you say I'm not affiliated with any party, Hannity, Bill,
when's the last time you voted for a Democrat?
Speaker 2 (14:42):
This in uh November? Who now, I'm not telling you how,
don't tell my votes?
Speaker 1 (14:48):
Come on, all Riley, just between me and you against them?
And all right, you're not supporting Mandani, are you? Marxist Mondani.
Speaker 2 (15:00):
Appoints me New York City so I can run it.
That's the only way I.
Speaker 1 (15:07):
Told you to leave the state. You didn't listen to me.
All things simple, Man, Bill O'Reilly at Bill O'Reilly dot com. Sir,
thank you appreciate you being with us. Eight hundred and
ninety four one sean our number. You want to be
a part of the program. Quick break right back will continue,
all right, Jonathan and tennessee Jonathan Hey, how are you
glad you called?
Speaker 4 (15:25):
Hey, Sean, I'm doing great.
Speaker 3 (15:26):
How much stuff?
Speaker 1 (15:28):
I'm good, sir? Glad you glad you checked in? What's
going on?
Speaker 3 (15:31):
Man?
Speaker 4 (15:32):
I just want to let you know I am so
mad about this big, beautiful building. I cannot see straight.
It just doesn't make any sense to me whatsoever. You
know they always talk about Republicans never miss an opportunity
to screw things up, and I think is the perfect
example of that.
Speaker 1 (15:51):
I don't think. Well, let's go over the bill and
you can tell me all the things you don't like,
and we probably will agree. To be very honest, there
are things I don't like in the bill either. And
the good news is too when Mike Johnson dealt with
us and others have dealt with us, is it can all?
You know? We can come back with another reconciliation bill.
(16:12):
This is the first bite of the apple. They bid
off a lot. It might have been better to break
it up. I'm not going to sit here and second
guess it at this point because we are where we are.
But let me ask you the things that I like
about the bill. I like that it has the largest
tax cut in American history, and Democrats voted against it.
Do you like that part absolutely? Do you like the
(16:35):
parts about no tax on tips and overtime and social security?
Speaker 4 (16:40):
Yeah, but I think they should have gone one one
step further and added and act to do your service
membership with that as well.
Speaker 1 (16:47):
Okay, fair enough, But you like the part that's a
pretty big selling point and Democrats voted against working men
and women, right. Yes, you like that it's funding building
out completely the border wall and providing necessary refunds to
find all of the unvetted criminal illegals that are, you know,
in this country. Do you like that part of the bill?
Speaker 4 (17:09):
Yes, definitely.
Speaker 1 (17:11):
Okay. Do you like the part of the bill that
is our military has been neglected four years under Biden,
and we've depleted many of our resources and we're not
keeping up with our geo political foes. Do you like
that it is funding the Department of Defense and it
is allocating massive billions amounts of dollars for the Iron Dome,
(17:33):
which may one day save American cities from devastation. Do
you like that part?
Speaker 4 (17:38):
As far as I'm concerned, they can never put too
much money into the military.
Speaker 1 (17:42):
I'm with you. I totally agree with you. Do you
like the part that really paves the way to open
up energy dominance.
Speaker 3 (17:50):
Yes.
Speaker 1 (17:51):
Do you like the part that has a work requirement
for Medicaid recipients so that the people are not getting
a free ride and states now have to contribute a
portion of monies to medicare. Yes, okay, I like all
of that. Now tell me what you don't like about it,
not to tell you if I agree.
Speaker 3 (18:10):
Okay.
Speaker 4 (18:10):
The thing that's killing me on it is, you know,
Trump starts talking about the tax cuts and the note tax,
on the tips and Social Security and over time, you know,
it's been almost a year since he even brought that up,
and we still don't have it. If they had broken
these things up into smaller pieces, we could have already
voted on those, and not.
Speaker 1 (18:32):
Only would we okay, but it's in the bill in
its current form.
Speaker 3 (18:36):
No.
Speaker 1 (18:37):
I mean you're saying, okay, So he's been president since
January twentieth. It's July what second today? By any measure?
Correct me if I'm wrong. There's never been a president
that has moved as fast as Donald Trump on as
many massive issues as he has, including deporting illegal immigrants,
bringing the murder rate down to the lowest level it's
(18:58):
been in decades, and moving ten trillion dollars in committed
investments for the economy, Executive order after executive order, including
helping pave the way for energy dominance, you know, taking
out Iran's nuclear facilities, trying really damn hard to get
peace in Europe. I think it's been the most consequential
(19:19):
six months of any president that I can think of
in one hundred years.
Speaker 4 (19:22):
To be honest, he's been the absolute best president in
my lifetime. I'm about to turn fifty seven, so yeah,
that's been a while, and I give him all the
kudos that there are out there to give. My problem
with this bill is that with all this stuff that
they're packing in together, you know, we can say, well,
the Democrats voted against the tax cuts, they voted against
(19:47):
the people, they voted against tax on tips, all these things.
We can say that they did that.
Speaker 1 (19:51):
But then they can well, it gives those politicians, remember
these these political animals, you know, all the things that
a lot of them are only thinking about the next election,
and they need those arguments to make if they want
to get reelected. And the twenty twenty six is everything's
everything's on the line here even James Carvele is saying that,
(20:11):
you know, he Trump will do anything to cheat the
midterms to avoid impeachment. It's not cheat Democrats. That's all
they care about. That's all they think about is impeachment.
And this election is going to matter in twenty twenty six. Now,
that's I think the biggest benefit. He's moved fast enough
to get the economy, and he's put the pieces in place,
(20:31):
including ten plus trillion dollars in investments of manufacturing and
energy and all these other issues that the economy is
going to turn by but November of twenty six, and
that's going to help every Republican in the midterm.
Speaker 3 (20:47):
Well, here's the part.
Speaker 4 (20:47):
That everybody's missing and no one's bring it up, is
if we had just had separate bills, then we could
have absolutely said they did not vote for this.
Speaker 1 (20:57):
I don't disagree. I think you could have broken it up.
But didn't happen that way. Why are we going backwards?
We already debated whether it should be one big beautiful bill,
other bills. You know, they decided to go this way,
but it's not the only bill either. Yeah, you know, Mike,
Mike Johnson was very very clear Mike Johnson made a
very good point. He said, we plan to do more
(21:17):
reconciliation work after October, after they've done with this, and
by the way, that means trying to get the balance,
but the budget balanced. They're not there yet, but they're
making strides.
Speaker 4 (21:29):
Yeah, but if they had done one at a time.
Speaker 1 (21:33):
I know you keep repeating it, but I mean, on measure,
is it good that we're passing it? Our bad in
your view?
Speaker 4 (21:40):
I'm sorry say again on measure with all.
Speaker 1 (21:43):
The things we discussed, is it good or bad that
it's getting done.
Speaker 4 (21:46):
Oh, It's definitely good that it's getting done. I just
think it could have been done better.
Speaker 1 (21:50):
Okay, fair enough, but there's nothing good. There's nothing that
could's done well in that that swamp. It's it's it's
horrible the way things work there. But it's the way
the system was actually designed. It was not designed to
be easy by our framers and our founders. It wasn't
they wanted, you know, the people's House. And then they
have the more deliberative body in the Senate. Look look
(22:11):
at how hard it is to even do a reconciliation bille. Anyway, Listen, Jonathan,
I gave you a lot of time. I hope you
feel you got your say and appreciate the call. Let
us say hi to Dan in Michigan. Dan, how are
you glad you called?
Speaker 5 (22:28):
I'm doing great. Thanks for taking my call, Sean. I
have a question here. I'm trying to understand what's happening
in New York City with this mayor race. I'm not
very familiar with ranke choice voting. They basically, I understand
if somebody doesn't get over fifty percent the first time,
they start going a second and third choices. And I'm
also did.
Speaker 1 (22:47):
This election wasn't even close? Andrew Como in this election
was not close.
Speaker 5 (22:52):
So I guess I need help understanding why everybody's saying
he needs to drop out, Because the way I see it,
you have a socialist communist on one side, for relatively
speaking normal people on the other side. And if ring
choice voting, I don't believe any of those people who
are voting.
Speaker 1 (23:09):
Yeah, but that doesn't happen in a in a general
election in New York City. Just so you know, listen,
the only reason that Lisa Murkowski survives he doesn't win
the Republican primary. She loses it. He wins on rank
choice voting, and I personally don't like the system. I
think you should have straight up, you have a winner,
you have a loser. That's it. That's my preferred that's
(23:30):
my preference.
Speaker 5 (23:31):
So I totally agree with you. I guess I'm just
trying to understand. I mean, if you have these four
other people, who are you know, not going to have
Man Tommy. I can't see somebody having sleeve while than
met Amy or you know, Cuomo and then man DOMI
So wouldn't that help the normal peers.
Speaker 1 (23:49):
Of If if if Eric Adams, Andrew Cuomo and Mom
Donnie Marxist Mom Donnie, if they split Democratic vote, you
could see Curtis Lee with slip it. You could now
when you break it down within the Democratic ranks and
there's one other radical leftists, but you know, maybe that's
(24:11):
a two to three percent drain, but they're gonna splinter
the Democratic vote. And in that scenario, I think Mom
Donnie wins, and then I mean the look don't don't
go by me. The betting markets have him, had him
earlier this week. It's seventy six percent odds are he's
(24:31):
gonna win.
Speaker 5 (24:32):
So it doesn't. So basically, if those other four non
communists don't have them DOMI as their second or third choice.
That doesn't matter, not.
Speaker 1 (24:42):
In the general election, though it doesn't exist. In the
general general is going to be a straight up winner loser.
Speaker 5 (24:47):
Ah, okay, okay. So they do it one way in
the primaries and then another way.
Speaker 3 (24:54):
I guess I correct.
Speaker 5 (24:55):
Democrats love that so much.
Speaker 1 (24:57):
Yeah, what do you think I don't live in New York.
Speaker 5 (25:01):
Well, I'll tell you what. If you want to come
up and live in Michigan's Upper Peninsula, it's always one
hundred degrees everywhere else it's usually about seventy five degrees
around here.
Speaker 1 (25:10):
Why do you think Linda left and she lives in
Pennsylvania anyway, appreciate the call eight hundred and nine four one,
Seawn if you want to be a part of the program. Uh,
all right, let's go to Big Time AJ Houston, Texas.
What's going on? Baby? How you big time?
Speaker 3 (25:28):
Sean?
Speaker 6 (25:28):
Hennity?
Speaker 3 (25:29):
Hey, Hey, happy four.
Speaker 1 (25:31):
Happy fourth man? What's going on.
Speaker 6 (25:33):
Everybody in America? Because, boy, I tell you Trump has
done a great job of getting us back to the
strikes that we are And Sean, that idiot that's running
in New York I'm back to them now.
Speaker 3 (25:47):
Uh who if New York wants to go down like that,
the movement.
Speaker 6 (25:53):
I'm taken over, like a doing Minnesota. I mean, I'm like,
who does this today? Country Sean and the media's on
the bill. Come on, people, what is it?
Speaker 3 (26:06):
Trump is a.
Speaker 6 (26:07):
Business man, the man got the plan. Let's see what
the plan is. So far, we doing pretty good, is
what six Sean?
Speaker 3 (26:16):
So far.
Speaker 1 (26:17):
I won't disclose the name of somebody when this guy won.
You know, uh, it's it's a prominent name that you
would recognize immediately. But I don't. I believe private conversation
should remain private. This person said. I said to me, well,
how you love in your city now? And the person said, well,
(26:40):
you're just a quitter. I'm like, I'm not a quitter.
I like, I just recognize that, you know, you guys
destroyed the city and I don't think you can solvage it.
And you know, even let's say Curtis wins, Curtis is
going to be Rudy Giuliani two point oh my view,
I really believe that, and I hope you don't win.
I think he'd do a good job for the city.
(27:02):
I think he fight hard for the city, to make
the city safer. But you know what, the odds are
not with him, but I hope he can overcome them,
and he'll face opposition lawfair, the likes of which you've
never seen in your life. It's pretty similar to what
Trump goes through him exactly.
Speaker 3 (27:20):
Sean. You did what I did.
Speaker 6 (27:21):
I left Michigan to come to Texas, and boy, I've
never regretted. I love Texas.
Speaker 1 (27:28):
I have never regretted coming to Florida. Never.
Speaker 3 (27:32):
You can dig me out of Texas.
Speaker 1 (27:34):
You couldn't dig me out of Florida. I can't do it.
Speaker 3 (27:38):
Hey Sean. We shaked it and make it come on.
Speaker 1 (27:42):
We shake it and make it come on baby. All right,
big time. We love you, quick freak. Right back to
our busy telephones. Eight hundred and nine to four one,
Shawn our number if you want to be a part
of the program.
Speaker 2 (27:57):
Up next our final round up and information overload hour.
Speaker 1 (28:08):
All right back for our busy phones, toll free. It's
eight hundred and ninety four one Seawan Jim in Florida.
We have about a minute. Jim, it's all yours. Welcome
to the show.
Speaker 7 (28:16):
Hey Sean, thanks for taking my call. I preface by
saying that my wife and I have both retired members
of the NYPD.
Speaker 1 (28:22):
I was gonna say, I hear that New York accident,
what's going on? I'm glad you called. Glad you're in
the free state of Florida. What's going what's happening?
Speaker 7 (28:29):
Well, I'd like to just point out one of Mndamine's
hypocrises that really discuss my wife and myself. So, someone
who's calling for the to dissolve the NYPD and replace
us with social workers. Now that he's the Democratic nominee,
he has taken NYPD security, just like a presidential nominee
can take Secret Service security. So it is the very
(28:52):
people whose job he wants to take away, and he
wants to disempower providing his personal security now that he's
a nominee.
Speaker 1 (28:59):
Yeah, no, he and they'll be armed, and he says
he wants to ban all guns. I had this battle
when the Blasio came in studio on my TV show
once and I said, should every New Yorker have the
right to defend themselves with a firearm? Every New Yorker
has the right to be safe? I said, I didn't
(29:21):
ask you that, and we went back and forth, and
back and forth. I'm like, why can't you have arm
guards right there? They weren't on camera. I said, they're
NYPD guys. And by the way, I believe every politician, Democrat, Republican, Communist, Marxist,
we've got to protect our elected officials, period and as sentence,
(29:41):
I do not deviate from that. I don't like political violence.
All right, Leonard skinnered simpleman. That can only mean one
thing on this radio program, and that is all things
self proclaimed simple man. That is all things Bill O'Reilly,
all things Bill O'Reilly at billoreilly dot com. Mister O'Reilly, sir,
I have three topics of discussion today. How are you, sir?
Speaker 2 (00:46):
I'm okay. Thank you for asking, Annie, I am all right, okay.
Speaker 1 (00:50):
So you in your commentary you quoted the Gallup pole.
I saw. I believe it was the pew pole. Now
it was Gallup Also, sorry, I think we're looking at
the same one. How proud are you, because Friday is
the fourth of July? How proud are you to be
an American? Extremely proud, very proud, moderately proud, only a
(01:10):
little proud or not proud, not at all proud. And
here's the fascinating numbers as you look at it here.
Republicans have been very, very consistent. Republicans have always been
ninety percent plus, with the exception of the Biden years,
where they were in the mid to upper eighties. Democrats
(01:33):
in the Trump years, you know, went down. They were
a little above forty percent at one point. If you
go back to two thousand and one. They were in
the actually low nineties at one point, and by two
thousand and fifteen. I'm not sure why they would or
I'm sorry. Two thousand and seven they were down to
like seventy five percent. Now they're down to thirty six percent.
(01:56):
Republicans that are very healthy ninety two percent. Bill, I
think it's a no brainer. You don't have to think
deeply about this. You just need to open your eyes
and look around the world. We live in the greatest
country God ever gave man, and liberty and freedom has
led to prosperity. Sect liberty and freedom has led to
prosperity second and none.
Speaker 2 (02:18):
Okay, well, let me analyst from a historian's point of
view rather than a party APPARATCHI because I'm not associated
with any party. The Democratic Party right now sells grievance.
That's what they do. So you're getting screwed, isn't it.
Speaker 1 (02:35):
Isn't it deeper than that? Aren't they also selling hate?
Speaker 2 (02:38):
Well, let me stair ship it here. So they're selling grievance.
That's how Mandani won the nomination in the Democratic primary
in New York. You're getting screwed. The billionaires. Bernie Sanders
on and on and on and on. The younger Americans
who have no frame of reference. It's an easier sell
in that crew because you have to struggle in this country,
(03:02):
in our system to be successful. Both you and I
had the lowest level jobs we could have, and we
worked our way up to the top. And how it's done.
But it wasn't easy. It was painful.
Speaker 3 (03:13):
Correct, Am I correct here? No?
Speaker 1 (03:15):
I think number one, nothing in life is easy. Number
two is the best thing that ever happened to me,
paper boy, dishwasher, cook construction. Ten years in restaurants, ten
years in construction. No, wasn't easy.
Speaker 2 (03:28):
Okay, So you and I understand that the capitalisting system
requires a bit of pain and discipline to succeed. The
younger people are only experiencing the pain. They don't know
if they're going to succeed or not. So when the
Charlatans come across and say, oh, you deserve success, we'll
(03:49):
give you success. We'll give you free rent, we'll give
you this, we'll give you that day, buy it. And
if those people aren't in power, which they're not, then
the younger people are disenchanted. That's number one. That's the
historical that's why the Democratic Party's proud number is so low. See,
younger people in the party don't understand what it takes
(04:13):
to succeed in capitalism. Number two, I've been to eighty
six countries. I just cut back from China. I know
the world, and there's nobody that comes close.
Speaker 1 (04:24):
And by the way, there is a follow up to
that bill o'relly has since been banned from eighty six countries,
but go ahead.
Speaker 2 (04:30):
Yeah, I was only deported by half of them, so
I know, I know, I've been there. I've seen it.
Even Great Britain, where I lived for a year, our
staunchest ally, isn't anywhere near the opportunity that you have
in America because when you're sixteen, you got to take
(04:52):
a test. All British school children take it, and if
you don't score a row in a test, you don't
go to college because it's funded by the government and
most people can't afford private college there. So again, Americans
don't understand any of that. I'm not being super sillious
word of the day, condescending telling you the truth. They
(05:12):
don't know. And then when you get into the history
of it, how millions of Americans have sacrifice their lives,
you have their legs blown off to try to bring
freedom to other people who didn't have it. And you
turn around and you say you're not proud of your country.
That's just ignorance.
Speaker 1 (05:32):
Let me ask you about There's an article on the
New York Post. The Democratic Party we knew died the
same way it lived with fear and hate. I look
at the Democratic Party now, it is there's no resemblance
to the Democratic Party that we knew most of the
years we've been in this industry. Now, I do think
(05:56):
that a lot of people hid their true beliefs and
that towards socialism and incremental socialism, etc. But they were
not as audacious word of the day as this current
group of Democratic leaders. If you look at Marxist Mumdanni
as one example, then you can look at Jasmine Crockett.
(06:17):
Then you can look at AOC, Then you can look
at the Squad. Then you can look at Grandpa Bernie
and Pocahontas. And if you then look closely at the
Democratic leadership, Chuck Schumer, for example, why isn't Chuck Schumer
condemning Marxist Donnie? Why isn't he condemning him because he's
(06:38):
afraid of him. Well, he's scared to death that AOC
is going to primary him. And if she does, I
believe she would win in your state of New York.
And you can correct me if you think I'm wrong.
I don't think I am I think I have a
pretty good finger on the pulse of politics in the country.
And what scares me is this is now the most
(06:59):
radical eyed party. A couple of examples. You know, Kamala Harris,
their presidential candidate, wanted taxpayer funded sex change operations for
illegals and for convicts. A running mate wanted under affirming
care without parental consent. He wanted taxpayer funded tuition for
illegals in his state. He wanted tampon's foot in grammar
(07:22):
school boys' bathrooms. Bill, you add to that, DEI, you
add to that woke, You add to that, you know,
cradle to grave, womb to the tomb, Green new Deal.
And this is not Bill Clinton's Democratic Party anymore.
Speaker 2 (07:37):
Sure, And Clinton is the guy who instituted referry for
him where he had a lip for work or you
cut off. And so the Democrats who supported that, they
turned around, Oh no, you can't do it. Now. But
what I believe happened in Democratic Party is they were bought.
(07:57):
The party was bought by the George Euros billionaire Hollywood
people that pump an enormous amount of money into the
political action committees of very far left candidates, Right Bragg
in New York and people like that. So the party
was bought. They sold it, whereas in Clinton Obama that
(08:19):
it started there. That's where the big money started to
come into the radical left under Obama. So it is
a different party. They've sold their soul and I don't
see that changing anytime soon. I don't see one moderate policy,
not one coming out of the Democratic Party. They don't
(08:39):
even want to get working class people in America a
tax break in the sense of keeping the twenty seventeen
tax rates. They want it to rise. Really, that's just insane.
So they sold it, Hannity, they sold it.
Speaker 1 (09:00):
So now we're on issue number three and it has
to do with now the Senate barely but they got
it through pass this one big, beautiful bill, and now
it's going to the House and there's a lot of
consternation and anger. I predict eventually, maybe not this week,
but maybe next week. At some point. I believe it's
(09:20):
going to pass because I think Donald Trump is going
to insist that these guys pass it. And let me
be very clear, there's not everything in there that I
like at all. You will get a tax benefit in
this living in New York that I don't think you deserve,
the state and local tax deduction, the rewards that what's that?
Speaker 2 (09:39):
I make too much money, I don't get anything. But
that's all right. I don't need it.
Speaker 1 (09:42):
Now you'll get you'll get the forty thousand, but it's
not going to impact your life very much. You know,
you're too rich a Republican. But here's here's what I see,
and here's how I look at it. When you have
such a slim majority and you have to do things
to get votes, it's unfortunate, but it's the way the
sausage is made. And I've seen this my entire career,
(10:04):
without exception, even when Ronald Reagan was president. And here's
where we find ourselves. And if I'm a Republican I'm
looking at I get to tell my constituents that Democrats
voted for the largest tax increase in American history, voted
for no tax on tips and overtime and Social Security,
(10:25):
and it frustrates me that people can't see the big picture.
And you know, when I did these town halls with
the House and the Senate, the first thing I said is,
you all know you're not going to get everything you want.
Your majority is too thin, it is too small. Am
I right? Or are they right to fight it? And
then ultimately, you know, if they win, then the American
(10:46):
people get the largest tax increase in history.
Speaker 2 (10:49):
Well, I think they're right to fight it, but in
the end they have to work for the welfare of
the country, which would be to pass the Bear because
if you don't pass it, country goes into a recession
and the midterms go the Democrats way. So that's a
simple equation. But I don't mind people fighting for a
better bill. I think that's what we all should do.
(11:10):
Republicans bought Markowski in the Senate. They brought her, you
know that, as you pointed out, and going on in
earnest since World War Two. It really started then, but
it's been present since George Washington to some degree. So
the Republicans brought her and won. They'll have to do
(11:32):
the same thing in the House. Right now.
Speaker 1 (11:34):
Well, the problem is is, look I was up all night,
not last night, the night before, and at two in
the morning, at four in the morning, at five in
the morning, I'm checking in. It wasn't until eight o'clock
in the morning that I found out that they had
the votes to pass it. And all I kept getting
was feedback that they didn't have the votes. If the
(11:57):
House changes it, that means it has to go back
to the Senate, back to the House. At some point
this has to end. And they're at a point where
I think Republicans don't understand how to take wins and
then come back for the next piece. They still have
the majority.
Speaker 2 (12:14):
Yeah, and look, you interrupted me, but I was going
to go down that road. So you have to pass
it now if you're a Republican in Congress, because if
you don't, you're basically nailing your own party, okay, and
you can't justify that. So you will get another chance
(12:37):
to have legislation. For example, I support separate legislation on
dreamers in America. I support that as a very good
article by Donald Grant used to publish the Washington Post
when it was a decent newspaper, saying, look, these people
were dragged here. It's no fault of their own should
(12:57):
not be punishing them. Let's have separate legis for them.
I support them.
Speaker 1 (13:02):
By the way, there is just so you know, Donald
Trump is working on deportation exemptions. Part of it would
include illegal farm and hospitality workers and people that you're
mentioning that maybe through no fault of their own, came
here are participating, paying taxes, working, etca no problems. You know,
(13:24):
if you hear twenty years and you've not gotten in
trouble and you pay your taxes, okay, you know you're
not the illegals that we're generally talking about.
Speaker 2 (13:33):
I think that, Look, you know better than me because
you talk to these people, and nobody ever wants to
talk to me, So I have a disadvantage. When you
said you think it'll get done, it's obvious that it
has to get done. And if any Republican Congression does
not see that, then they don't deserve to be in
(13:55):
Congress because you're giving the Democrats and that party is
on the rule sannity. You know what, I know it
Democratic Party.
Speaker 1 (14:03):
That's why they should take to win and go home
and say they voted to raise your taxes. They won't
secure your borders. They don't care about working men and women.
They don't care. They're the appeasement party, they don't care
about national defense and the party of do nothing radical
you know, Marxist Mundanmi's Wandani's and AOC's.
Speaker 2 (14:23):
Hey, you can say that the Republican Party has now
given the working people in America more money if.
Speaker 3 (14:31):
You pass exactly that's it. That's all, by the way.
Speaker 1 (14:35):
And you say I'm not affiliated with any party, Hannity, Bill,
when's the last time you voted for a Democrat?
Speaker 2 (14:42):
This in uh November? Who now, I'm not telling you how,
don't tell my votes?
Speaker 1 (14:48):
Come on, all Riley, just between me and you against them?
And all right, you're not supporting Mandani, are you? Marxist Mondani.
Speaker 2 (15:00):
Appoints me New York City so I can run it.
That's the only way I.
Speaker 1 (15:07):
Told you to leave the state. You didn't listen to me.
All things simple, Man, Bill O'Reilly at Bill O'Reilly dot com. Sir,
thank you appreciate you being with us. Eight hundred and
ninety four one sean our number. You want to be
a part of the program. Quick break right back will continue,
all right, Jonathan and tennessee Jonathan Hey, how are you
glad you called?
Speaker 4 (15:25):
Hey, Sean, I'm doing great.
Speaker 3 (15:26):
How much stuff?
Speaker 1 (15:28):
I'm good, sir? Glad you glad you checked in? What's
going on?
Speaker 3 (15:31):
Man?
Speaker 4 (15:32):
I just want to let you know I am so
mad about this big, beautiful building. I cannot see straight.
It just doesn't make any sense to me whatsoever. You
know they always talk about Republicans never miss an opportunity
to screw things up, and I think is the perfect
example of that.
Speaker 1 (15:51):
I don't think. Well, let's go over the bill and
you can tell me all the things you don't like,
and we probably will agree. To be very honest, there
are things I don't like in the bill either. And
the good news is too when Mike Johnson dealt with
us and others have dealt with us, is it can all?
You know? We can come back with another reconciliation bill.
(16:12):
This is the first bite of the apple. They bid
off a lot. It might have been better to break
it up. I'm not going to sit here and second
guess it at this point because we are where we are.
But let me ask you the things that I like
about the bill. I like that it has the largest
tax cut in American history, and Democrats voted against it.
Do you like that part absolutely? Do you like the
(16:35):
parts about no tax on tips and overtime and social security?
Speaker 4 (16:40):
Yeah, but I think they should have gone one one
step further and added and act to do your service
membership with that as well.
Speaker 1 (16:47):
Okay, fair enough, But you like the part that's a
pretty big selling point and Democrats voted against working men
and women, right. Yes, you like that it's funding building
out completely the border wall and providing necessary refunds to
find all of the unvetted criminal illegals that are, you know,
in this country. Do you like that part of the bill?
Speaker 4 (17:09):
Yes, definitely.
Speaker 1 (17:11):
Okay. Do you like the part of the bill that
is our military has been neglected four years under Biden,
and we've depleted many of our resources and we're not
keeping up with our geo political foes. Do you like
that it is funding the Department of Defense and it
is allocating massive billions amounts of dollars for the Iron Dome,
(17:33):
which may one day save American cities from devastation. Do
you like that part?
Speaker 4 (17:38):
As far as I'm concerned, they can never put too
much money into the military.
Speaker 1 (17:42):
I'm with you. I totally agree with you. Do you
like the part that really paves the way to open
up energy dominance.
Speaker 3 (17:50):
Yes.
Speaker 1 (17:51):
Do you like the part that has a work requirement
for Medicaid recipients so that the people are not getting
a free ride and states now have to contribute a
portion of monies to medicare. Yes, okay, I like all
of that. Now tell me what you don't like about it,
not to tell you if I agree.
Speaker 3 (18:10):
Okay.
Speaker 4 (18:10):
The thing that's killing me on it is, you know,
Trump starts talking about the tax cuts and the note tax,
on the tips and Social Security and over time, you know,
it's been almost a year since he even brought that up,
and we still don't have it. If they had broken
these things up into smaller pieces, we could have already
voted on those, and not.
Speaker 1 (18:32):
Only would we okay, but it's in the bill in
its current form.
Speaker 3 (18:36):
No.
Speaker 1 (18:37):
I mean you're saying, okay, So he's been president since
January twentieth. It's July what second today? By any measure?
Correct me if I'm wrong. There's never been a president
that has moved as fast as Donald Trump on as
many massive issues as he has, including deporting illegal immigrants,
bringing the murder rate down to the lowest level it's
(18:58):
been in decades, and moving ten trillion dollars in committed
investments for the economy, Executive order after executive order, including
helping pave the way for energy dominance, you know, taking
out Iran's nuclear facilities, trying really damn hard to get
peace in Europe. I think it's been the most consequential
(19:19):
six months of any president that I can think of
in one hundred years.
Speaker 4 (19:22):
To be honest, he's been the absolute best president in
my lifetime. I'm about to turn fifty seven, so yeah,
that's been a while, and I give him all the
kudos that there are out there to give. My problem
with this bill is that with all this stuff that
they're packing in together, you know, we can say, well,
the Democrats voted against the tax cuts, they voted against
(19:47):
the people, they voted against tax on tips, all these things.
We can say that they did that.
Speaker 1 (19:51):
But then they can well, it gives those politicians, remember
these these political animals, you know, all the things that
a lot of them are only thinking about the next election,
and they need those arguments to make if they want
to get reelected. And the twenty twenty six is everything's
everything's on the line here even James Carvele is saying that,
(20:11):
you know, he Trump will do anything to cheat the
midterms to avoid impeachment. It's not cheat Democrats. That's all
they care about. That's all they think about is impeachment.
And this election is going to matter in twenty twenty six. Now,
that's I think the biggest benefit. He's moved fast enough
to get the economy, and he's put the pieces in place,
(20:31):
including ten plus trillion dollars in investments of manufacturing and
energy and all these other issues that the economy is
going to turn by but November of twenty six, and
that's going to help every Republican in the midterm.
Speaker 3 (20:47):
Well, here's the part.
Speaker 4 (20:47):
That everybody's missing and no one's bring it up, is
if we had just had separate bills, then we could
have absolutely said they did not vote for this.
Speaker 1 (20:57):
I don't disagree. I think you could have broken it up.
But didn't happen that way. Why are we going backwards?
We already debated whether it should be one big beautiful bill,
other bills. You know, they decided to go this way,
but it's not the only bill either. Yeah, you know, Mike,
Mike Johnson was very very clear Mike Johnson made a
very good point. He said, we plan to do more
(21:17):
reconciliation work after October, after they've done with this, and
by the way, that means trying to get the balance,
but the budget balanced. They're not there yet, but they're
making strides.
Speaker 4 (21:29):
Yeah, but if they had done one at a time.
Speaker 1 (21:33):
I know you keep repeating it, but I mean, on measure,
is it good that we're passing it? Our bad in
your view?
Speaker 4 (21:40):
I'm sorry say again on measure with all.
Speaker 1 (21:43):
The things we discussed, is it good or bad that
it's getting done.
Speaker 4 (21:46):
Oh, It's definitely good that it's getting done. I just
think it could have been done better.
Speaker 1 (21:50):
Okay, fair enough, but there's nothing good. There's nothing that
could's done well in that that swamp. It's it's it's
horrible the way things work there. But it's the way
the system was actually designed. It was not designed to
be easy by our framers and our founders. It wasn't
they wanted, you know, the people's House. And then they
have the more deliberative body in the Senate. Look look
(22:11):
at how hard it is to even do a reconciliation bille. Anyway, Listen, Jonathan,
I gave you a lot of time. I hope you
feel you got your say and appreciate the call. Let
us say hi to Dan in Michigan. Dan, how are
you glad you called?
Speaker 5 (22:28):
I'm doing great. Thanks for taking my call, Sean. I
have a question here. I'm trying to understand what's happening
in New York City with this mayor race. I'm not
very familiar with ranke choice voting. They basically, I understand
if somebody doesn't get over fifty percent the first time,
they start going a second and third choices. And I'm
also did.
Speaker 1 (22:47):
This election wasn't even close? Andrew Como in this election
was not close.
Speaker 5 (22:52):
So I guess I need help understanding why everybody's saying
he needs to drop out, Because the way I see it,
you have a socialist communist on one side, for relatively
speaking normal people on the other side. And if ring
choice voting, I don't believe any of those people who
are voting.
Speaker 1 (23:09):
Yeah, but that doesn't happen in a in a general
election in New York City. Just so you know, listen,
the only reason that Lisa Murkowski survives he doesn't win
the Republican primary. She loses it. He wins on rank
choice voting, and I personally don't like the system. I
think you should have straight up, you have a winner,
you have a loser. That's it. That's my preferred that's
(23:30):
my preference.
Speaker 5 (23:31):
So I totally agree with you. I guess I'm just
trying to understand. I mean, if you have these four
other people, who are you know, not going to have
Man Tommy. I can't see somebody having sleeve while than
met Amy or you know, Cuomo and then man DOMI
So wouldn't that help the normal peers.
Speaker 1 (23:49):
Of If if if Eric Adams, Andrew Cuomo and Mom
Donnie Marxist Mom Donnie, if they split Democratic vote, you
could see Curtis Lee with slip it. You could now
when you break it down within the Democratic ranks and
there's one other radical leftists, but you know, maybe that's
(24:11):
a two to three percent drain, but they're gonna splinter
the Democratic vote. And in that scenario, I think Mom
Donnie wins, and then I mean the look don't don't
go by me. The betting markets have him, had him
earlier this week. It's seventy six percent odds are he's
(24:31):
gonna win.
Speaker 5 (24:32):
So it doesn't. So basically, if those other four non
communists don't have them DOMI as their second or third choice.
That doesn't matter, not.
Speaker 1 (24:42):
In the general election, though it doesn't exist. In the
general general is going to be a straight up winner loser.
Speaker 5 (24:47):
Ah, okay, okay. So they do it one way in
the primaries and then another way.
Speaker 3 (24:54):
I guess I correct.
Speaker 5 (24:55):
Democrats love that so much.
Speaker 1 (24:57):
Yeah, what do you think I don't live in New York.
Speaker 5 (25:01):
Well, I'll tell you what. If you want to come
up and live in Michigan's Upper Peninsula, it's always one
hundred degrees everywhere else it's usually about seventy five degrees
around here.
Speaker 1 (25:10):
Why do you think Linda left and she lives in
Pennsylvania anyway, appreciate the call eight hundred and nine four one,
Seawn if you want to be a part of the program. Uh,
all right, let's go to Big Time AJ Houston, Texas.
What's going on? Baby? How you big time?
Speaker 3 (25:28):
Sean?
Speaker 6 (25:28):
Hennity?
Speaker 3 (25:29):
Hey, Hey, happy four.
Speaker 1 (25:31):
Happy fourth man? What's going on.
Speaker 6 (25:33):
Everybody in America? Because, boy, I tell you Trump has
done a great job of getting us back to the
strikes that we are And Sean, that idiot that's running
in New York I'm back to them now.
Speaker 3 (25:47):
Uh who if New York wants to go down like that,
the movement.
Speaker 6 (25:53):
I'm taken over, like a doing Minnesota. I mean, I'm like,
who does this today? Country Sean and the media's on
the bill. Come on, people, what is it?
Speaker 3 (26:06):
Trump is a.
Speaker 6 (26:07):
Business man, the man got the plan. Let's see what
the plan is. So far, we doing pretty good, is
what six Sean?
Speaker 3 (26:16):
So far.
Speaker 1 (26:17):
I won't disclose the name of somebody when this guy won.
You know, uh, it's it's a prominent name that you
would recognize immediately. But I don't. I believe private conversation
should remain private. This person said. I said to me, well,
how you love in your city now? And the person said, well,
(26:40):
you're just a quitter. I'm like, I'm not a quitter.
I like, I just recognize that, you know, you guys
destroyed the city and I don't think you can solvage it.
And you know, even let's say Curtis wins, Curtis is
going to be Rudy Giuliani two point oh my view,
I really believe that, and I hope you don't win.
I think he'd do a good job for the city.
(27:02):
I think he fight hard for the city, to make
the city safer. But you know what, the odds are
not with him, but I hope he can overcome them,
and he'll face opposition lawfair, the likes of which you've
never seen in your life. It's pretty similar to what
Trump goes through him exactly.
Speaker 3 (27:20):
Sean. You did what I did.
Speaker 6 (27:21):
I left Michigan to come to Texas, and boy, I've
never regretted. I love Texas.
Speaker 1 (27:28):
I have never regretted coming to Florida. Never.
Speaker 3 (27:32):
You can dig me out of Texas.
Speaker 1 (27:34):
You couldn't dig me out of Florida. I can't do it.
Speaker 3 (27:38):
Hey Sean. We shaked it and make it come on.
Speaker 1 (27:42):
We shake it and make it come on baby. All right,
big time. We love you, quick freak. Right back to
our busy telephones. Eight hundred and nine to four one,
Shawn our number if you want to be a part
of the program.
Speaker 2 (27:57):
Up next our final round up and information overload hour.
Speaker 1 (28:08):
All right back for our busy phones, toll free. It's
eight hundred and ninety four one Seawan Jim in Florida.
We have about a minute. Jim, it's all yours. Welcome
to the show.
Speaker 7 (28:16):
Hey Sean, thanks for taking my call. I preface by
saying that my wife and I have both retired members
of the NYPD.
Speaker 1 (28:22):
I was gonna say, I hear that New York accident,
what's going on? I'm glad you called. Glad you're in
the free state of Florida. What's going what's happening?
Speaker 7 (28:29):
Well, I'd like to just point out one of Mndamine's
hypocrises that really discuss my wife and myself. So, someone
who's calling for the to dissolve the NYPD and replace
us with social workers. Now that he's the Democratic nominee,
he has taken NYPD security, just like a presidential nominee
can take Secret Service security. So it is the very
(28:52):
people whose job he wants to take away, and he
wants to disempower providing his personal security now that he's
a nominee.
Speaker 1 (28:59):
Yeah, no, he and they'll be armed, and he says
he wants to ban all guns. I had this battle
when the Blasio came in studio on my TV show
once and I said, should every New Yorker have the
right to defend themselves with a firearm? Every New Yorker
has the right to be safe? I said, I didn't
(29:21):
ask you that, and we went back and forth, and
back and forth. I'm like, why can't you have arm
guards right there? They weren't on camera. I said, they're
NYPD guys. And by the way, I believe every politician, Democrat, Republican, Communist, Marxist,
we've got to protect our elected officials, period and as sentence,
(29:41):
I do not deviate from that. I don't like political violence.
