Time Text
This is an iHeart Podcast.
All right, Leonard Skinnage Simple Man.
That can only mean one thing on this radio uh program, and that is all things self-proclaimed simple man, which means all things the one and only Bill O'Reilly, all things O'Reilly of Bill O'Reilly.com.
You know, I don't give anybody an introduction like this.
Why do I suck up to you?
Why do I give you all this promotion?
I guess because I don't know.
I'm a nice guy.
No, you're telling the truth.
You're a truth teller, that's why.
Mr. O'Reilly, how are how I just want to know, how are you today?
How are you this Wednesday?
You're you good, everything good in your life?
I'm a little tired because yesterday, after it snowed here on Long Island, I went over to your house to shovel your driveway.
The gate locked, and there were a bunch of uh there are a bunch of uh martial arts people, you know, looking for you.
I said, Look, I think he's down south, but I'm not sure.
So I I haven't been there this entire year, not one day.
All right, Bill, I think you're gonna love this cut by Karine Jean-Pierre, White House spokesperson.
Biden does more in an hour than most people do in a day.
He's sharp.
Listen.
Look, I'll quote a little bit of uh what the first lady said uh I think incredibly well just a couple days ago.
Uh the President Biden does more in one hour than most people do in a day.
And I believe for me, you're asking me my personal opinion.
Uh he is sharp.
Uh he is on top of things.
All right, Bill.
We we both work very hard.
Do you think that Joe Biden does more in an hour than most Americans do in a day?
First of all, how insulting.
And it's also insulting to anybody with any level of intelligence because our eyes tell us just the opposite.
He can barely get through, you know, a five-minute speech without mumbling, bumbling, stumbling, or knowing whether whether to exit stage left or stage right.
Well, every day we do a uh Biden's schedule on the No Spin News, which you can access on Bill O'Reilly.com.
And a three out of five days' got nothing on a schedule, like today.
The only schedule today is lunch with the Secretary of State.
Yesterday, the only thing on his schedule yesterday was lunch with Kamlin.
Now he did pop out to take a shot at Trump about NATO yesterday.
That was impromptu.
So what happens so people understand is um every morning very early, the White House puts out the president's schedule so that the people covering the president know where he will be and when he will be there.
In the Trump administration, because I wrote the book, The United States of Trump, I followed that very closely, and every day was packed.
And when I actually went to the White House to do the research on, you know, how he conducted his day-to-day affairs.
This is President Trump.
I it was an amazing display of one after the other after the other after the other.
Barack Obama was the same way.
Both of them, both presidents, Obama and Trump, worked very long hours, different hours, but long.
Biden does not.
And it's documented that he does not.
So I don't know what Ms. Jean-Pierre is talking about, but I'm not surprised.
Her job is to be Baghdad Bob, to be a propaganda.
And that's what you have I haven't heard that term in a while.
Uh I'm stealing it and I'm gonna uh overuse it just to take it away from you because it's so accurate.
Uh look, they're just nothing but propagandists.
But that's the that that's the media today.
I want to tell you something that I'm angry about, and I want to get your reaction to.
And it has to do with the Senate bill to fund Ukraine, which is dead on arrival, thankfully, in the House.
And the reason that it's dead on arrival is because the argument is under Joe Biden and him rescinding all the to Trump border policies that I think you would agree were very effective.
Stay in Mexico, build the wall, etc.
They got rid of all those policies in the first hundred days, 10 million unvetted illegal Joe Biden immigrants.
And so this vote takes place, and Biden is urging House Republicans to reject Trump's dangerous get this, an un-American pro-Putin stance on Ukraine.
And it did surprise me.
I didn't expect this from Nikki Haley.
I've never had a problem with Nikki Haley.
If she loses her home state by the real clear politics average, 30.2.
If she loses by 15, I I think that does not look good for her.
And I think it's a Very, you know, show me the path where she can win, because I don't see a lot of states where she's even close to leading or competitive.
But she warned that Trump's Ukraine policies will mean more war and slams him for siding with the thug Vladimir Putin.
And Mitt Romney pretty much said the same thing.
And I'm sorry, Bill, but in my mind, House Republicans are correct.
And that is we've got to secure our border, and I would add to it, we've got to get our budget fixed.
And once we do those two things for America, then we can think about helping.
First, I would say Israel needs our help more than Ukraine right now.
We've given Ukraine more than 75 billion.
Then we could talk about it.
But until then, no.
If you're letting people in from Syria, Iran, Egypt, Afghanistan, China, and Russia are top geopolitical foes.
I'm sorry, our borders come first.
Do you agree?
Uh we have a little bit of a disagreement here.
I mean, obviously, I think that the border, the U.S. border is a top um issue that has to be fixed.
And I said I would not have voted for the Senate bill because it didn't fix it, and it just enabled more people to come over, almost two million more.
So I wouldn't have voted for that.
I would vote if I were a Congressperson for the uh 95 billion uh foreign aid bills, 60 of which goes to Ukraine.
And the reason I would is because Putin is just waiting for the alliance that's NATO uh and America that is basically propping up Zelensky in Ukraine.
They're w he's waiting for it to fall apart.
And the unintended consequences of that, you know, and you discuss it on your radio and TV shows all day long.
It's China, Taiwan, you got the Mullers in uh Iran, you got North Korea, you got all of these totalitarian villains watching this, that if the West falters and Putin is allowed to actually take half the country, which is what he wants to do in Ukraine, um it's just gonna cascade down into social disorder everywhere in the world.
But but Bill, why can't we insist that they do the obvious?
Why look, let me put it this way.
And I pray to God that I'm wrong, Bill, and I've been saying it for a long time, and I I know I'm gonna be proven right among the 10 million, uh around 10 million unvetted Joe Biden illegal immigrants that are coming from all these top geopolitical foes.
You and I both both are smart enough to know that among those people are people that are terrorists, that people that are spies.
We are letting the enemy in.
These these luminaries that have retired from the top positions in the FBI said this is an invasion of military age men.
And it's not a matter of if, Bill, it's when.
When the attack comes.
Because those people are planning and plotting right now, Bill, and it's gonna happen.
And I pray to God I'm wrong.
It's the violence already here on a different level.
That's street violence.
And the best illustration is New York.
I'm talking about 9-11.
I'm talking about October 7th.
I'm talking about that kind of attack.
But you can actually make a stair step case that already that towns and states are being um put in danger by these criminal aliens who have crossed in here under the Biden open border policy.
So it's a stair step.
All right.
So that's the the low level of it.
It's like the Maryelitos.
I don't know whether you remember that story.
Of course, the the Cuban boat lift.
That was one of the first stories I covered as a journalist.
And the Mario Litos were gangsters, criminals, violent people, who Castro let out of jail, put them on boats and say go to America, which they did and caused unbelievable havoc in Florida and Louisiana.
By the way, a lot of people at the southern border, we believe the same thing's been happening.
Venezuela's been doing the same thing.
It's so eerie.
It's such a duplication.
So the Republican Party made a big deal out of that In the race where you used to live, and I still live in the third district on Long Island.
lost the race um...
swazi the democrat one pretty much because he was a better campaigner and they knew where they didn't know mozzi Phillip was a new person on the scene.
But every ad Yeah, it's deeper than that, Bill.
You know what?
Republicans approves my point.
They reject they're resistant to early voting, voting by mail, and lo and behold, Democrats start out with a huge lead on election day.
And guess what happened?
It snowed.
But you're right about the name recognition.
He used to be the county executive and three-term congressman.
Swazi would have won anyway.
So my message to the Republican Party.
Well, I bet you I bet you could have beat him.
You know, I was actually thinking that.
But I'm fairly popular in my uh hometown here.
But anyway, I I don't want to get into politics.
I think my job is to do what you do.
We're basically watchdogs about a country that's in decline, and it's very serious.
And the amount of honest watchdogs journal respondents are shrinking so fast.
It's just crazy.
But anyway, uh the Republican Party needs to be the party of solutions here, not the party of no.
And they also need, and you have pointed this out time and again.
They need a message on abortion because they just slaughtered this, Mazzy, saying she was for uh banning of abortion.
And that's what political action committees do on both sides.
They lie.
And there's nothing anybody can do about that.
But Republicans have got to have a message about abortion.
They have to have one.
And they did not have one in the third district here.
By the way, did it this is why the wave never happened in 2022.
Right.
And if you want to know why Oz lost in Pennsylvania by four, uh look at the governor's race in Pennsylvania, where you had uh uh candidate Mastriano that didn't make exceptions for rape incest to the mother's life.
He lost by the largest number of a to a non-incumbent Democrat since the 1940s because of that issue, Bill.
So the Republicans have really have to pull back because they could lose in November, even though Trump is leading.
Trump should be up by twenty.
He should be up by twenty points.
And he's up by three or four in most polls.
And the reason is his demeanor, which I don't drive me crazy, and I know you feel frustrated too, because we have both told Donald Trump.
And for your listeners, Trump is a friend of mine for more than three decades, and Hannity's known him for I think for more than 25 years.
So we talked to him as that, not as, you know, we're not as journalists intruding on his um run or his campaign, but I talked to him as a friend.
And I tell him, because I always tell my friends the truth.
That's the hallmark of true friendship on this Valentine's Day.
Agree.
I I said, look, you gotta run, you have the history.
You have the history.
Nikki uh Haley's husband, no, don't dumb.
Right.
I agree.
Stop.
Bill, you know the guy that we know separate from politics.
Let's let's let's take it back before 2016.
The guy that we knew, is he not the funniest guy?
Is he not the most gregarious?
Is he not generous to a fault?
Um just a fun guy to be around.
When do we ever see when does the American people see a side of him that you and I know exists?
And I've said that to him.
Why don't you show that side of yourself occasionally?
Yeah, because um carried away in the rallies, that's the problem.
He doesn't go in with a prompter, like everything that Joe Biden says is on a card or on a teleprompter.
Trump doesn't use that.
And then he's in, and there's 7,000 people.
No, he I've watched him.
He uses there is one, but he goes off script.
It's sort of like being the prompter, you know, operator on my show.
I go off script constantly.
You don't want to be Trump's uh writer.
You're wasting your time.
Yeah.
Exactly.
All right, we only got about 10 seconds.
Go ahead.
Um, nothing much other than uh we are in a culture war as well as a political war here.
And I hope I just think the progressives are so horrible, and I hope the Republicans can rally.
I hope they can.
It's uh it's not a feta complete, Bill.
No, on either side.
Not at all.
All right, quick break.
We'll come back more with Simple Man Bill O'Reilly.
Your call's also coming up later.
Peter Schweitzer joins us uh with a preview of uh his new book.
Uh way to hear about this, and we'll talk about uh Bob Balinski and his testimony yesterday, which was devastating.
Uh 800-941 Shauna's on number, that's our phone number.
If you want to call in, we'd love to hear from you as we continue.
All right, joining us now is the Homeland Security Committee Chairman, Mark Green is with us.
Uh he, by the way, is also an MD.
He's from Tennessee.
Uh I gotta give you and I gotta give your fellow Republicans in the House a good amount of credit.
I know you don't have a big majority.
This was not uh a light lift, but it's the right thing to do.
Uh and and I don't really care what happens in the Senate.
That that should not influence what the House does.
If a person deserves to be impeached for dereliction of duty for not upholding the laws of this land, and frankly, for aiding and abetting in the law breaking, which happened, they should be held accountable.
Anyway, uh Homeland Security Committee Chair, uh Mark Green, welcome to the program.
Thanks for having me, Sean.
It's uh and thank you for being uh a voice of all of this over the past years.
Uh just getting the American people aware of what's going on has helped us achieve what we did yesterday.
Well, okay, let's talk about the reasons, the whys, the where force.
I don't know about you.
Uh do you have any kids, Doctor?
I do.
I have uh a son and a daughter.
All right.
If you're like me, do you get more angry at whatever silly thing they did wrong, or do you get more angry angry when they look you in the eye and they said, I I I swear to that, I didn't need the cookie, and then you look at their face and you see nothing but chocolate chip cookie all over it.
You get more mad when they lie or more mad at the silly things kids always do.
Uh it's the dishonesty, right?
That we uh we pound into it's the honest people, and and Mayorcus has come before the Congress and blatantly lied.
He's lied to the American people just a hundred plus times.
Um the whipping incident, which was an absolute lie.
Uh he's broken the trust of the American people.
Uh he's broken the trust, the breach of trust, and that's exactly what the founders intended for uh high crimes and misdemeanors.
But Congressman, isn't the biggest lie what they've told us for three years?
They've insisted that the borders closed, the borders secure.
And meanwhile, I advise to see I I have a television program that we can actually show video tape.
And for three years, we've been showing the American people how bad it is down at our border.
Now the estimate is somewhere around 10 million illegal Joe Biden immigrants in this country, including from countries like Iran and Syria and Egypt, home of the Muslim Brotherhood, home of Al Qaeda is Afghanistan, thousands, six over six thousand from there.
Uh these people from Iran, the number one state sponsor of terror, and then tens of thousands from Russia are number two geopolitical foe, and and uh over thirty-seven thousand, the latest estimate from China are number one geopolitical foe.
Do you think they're coming here because they want better lives, or you think that maybe amongst that population, there's probably a few people that have bad intentions for our country?
Well, it's real easy to see China.
I mean, they the social credit score over there doesn't allow a Chinese person to climb on an airplane and fly to Ecuador and or uh you know El Salvador and then walk up.
I mean, you can't do that without the government knowing.
And 19,000 since October 1 and 28,000 last year, and the highest number before that ever on on record, uh 1800.
So that massive spike in the past year and a half has to be programmed.
Now uh is it uh sabotage if we go to war with to to defend Taiwan?
Is it something else?
I I don't know.
But it any military general who couldn't figure this one out would be fired on day one.
Okay.
It's that transparent, it's that obvious for anybody with eyes to see.
But they've lied to us for three years.
Now Mayorcus is saying we don't bear responsibility for the broken border system, or Joe Biden saying, I've done everything I can do with the border, just give me the power.
Uh well, he didn't need the power when he rescinded the stay in Mexico policy when he rescinded a border wall construction, uh, and when he did a lot of other things as well, pretty much rescinded every Trump immigration policy that in fact was working.
Uh so for him to you know peddle that lie echoed by the media mob infuriates me also.
Yeah, it it that is insanity.
67 exact policies were undone as soon as they came into office.
Executive orders undoing either executive orders or regulations done by the department.
And they flipped the system on its head, where the system is designed to stop and detain everybody who comes in, and when resources get, you know, uh exhausted, then you can issue parole on a case-by-case basis.
America's designed whole systems to allow for group huge groups of people to be automatically paroled into the country, subverting the laws written by Congress.
And as far as I'm concerned, he he's breaking his oath to defend the Constitution because it's clear Congress writes the law and the executive branch executes the law.
And if you go back to Iran Contra where the Democrats were trying to hold Reagan accountable, they actually say in their report, uh, you don't get to pick and choose which laws you follow.
And so uh we just have been throwing that back in their face.
Of course, they vote their ideology, they don't vote right or wrong.
And so, of course, the vote was what it was.
But uh Mayorchus is a liar.
He lied to Congress, he lied to the American people, he's breaking the laws, he's subverting the laws, and he's damaging the Constitution.
Well, let me ask you this simple basic question.
If if if there were if I went down to the southern border and and I picked up people at that border, and I said, Well, I'm gonna give you 43 cities to choose from, and by the way, here is uh a debit card worth you know whatever amount of money, because I know the Bidens have given out over a billion dollars on top of free transportation to any one of 43 locations, uh and and even more than that because it's spread out.
Every every city, every town now is a border town, border city.
And if I went down to the border and I picked people up and said, Where would you like to go?
Uh, do you think I'd be violating the laws of our land?
And would I not be potentially arrested for human trafficking and smuggling?
Uh isn't wouldn't I be committing a crime?
And if the answer is yes, which I know it is, but I'll let you answer.
Uh, I don't want to put words in your mouth.
If if that means I would get arrested, why is Joe institutionalized aiding and abetting in the law breaking?
Why has he gotten away with aiding and abetting in the law breaking?
I'd like to know why that happened.
Yeah, the challenge with the aiding and abetting is showing intent for the outcome.
So let's say if you were going to say we charge him, and we looked at that, Sean, aiding and abetting the drug cartels for trafficking or human trafficking.
You have to show intent, and that requires uh I mean you can infer intent, and I I'm willing to infer intent right now because that's exactly they know what's happening and they've chosen to only double down on those same policies.
But that isn't it it wouldn't qualify for the elements of the crime.
And so let me ask you this, but uh the the law that you're referring to, don't they have specific provisions in there about transporting illegal immigrants?
They do, and and that could be a crime.
What you described could very well be a crime under certain circumstances, depending on, like, for example, if you ask the person, and and they're inside the United States now, so we're talking about already in the U.S. If you go into Mexico and do it, it's absolutely human traffic.
If you do it from inside the U.S., they're here, and they say, Yeah, take me there, and they give you a signature saying you can you can give somebody a ride inside the country.
But if you bring them across that border, that's that's a crime.
I mean, that I mean that to me is a no-brainer.
What frustrates me the most, I'm not against immigration, and I know there's a term that the left and the mob and the media they like to use, and they call it I I don't even know what the hell they're talking about half the time because I don't pay attention to idiocy, and mostly what I hear from pundits on on television and people that write for the New York Times or Washington Post is just total crap and BS and it's just they're just a bunch of partisan hacks.
But the term they like to use is a replacement theory.
Um let me be very clear.
Um I don't care who comes to this country.
I think we have to limit the number of people that come.
Uh I don't care where you come from, but I don't think it's unreasonable to ask for a background checks to see that you don't have radical associations or a health check in a post COVID 19 world, or that you have to show an ability that you will be able to financially sustain yourself without being a burden on the American people.
Is is that are those requirements too stringent, Congressman?
I don't think so.
I think they're very reasonable.
They're written into the law, Sean, and he they are ignoring in fact he this is the smoking gun.
Mayorcus wrote a memorandum in September uh, I think of twenty-one, uh, that that directed ICE to disregard the law that said if they're a criminal alien, they have to be detained.
This is a person who's committed a felony.
So if they find out that they've got a felony, they're not detaining them now by directive from the secretary, contrary to the laws passed by Congress.
And and what's really uh interesting about our immigration laws, they don't you know, nowhere in the law does it say DOJ, you shall prosecute every murderer.
In the uh uh immigration law, it says you shall detain every felon that comes across that border.
And Mayorcus directed them in a memorandum to break the law.
All right, quick break.
We'll come back more with Homeland Security Committee Chairman Mark Green as we continue the discussion about the impeachment of Alejandro Mayorkas.
And now a word from the forty-sixth president of the United States.
We're gonna see Zeria's luxury homes and other ill-begotten gays of food autocracy.
Sean Hannity is on right now.
Sean Hannity is on right now.
We continue now with the chairman of the Homeland Security Committee, That's Chairman Mark Green, uh Congressman, also a medical doctor from Tennessee, about the impeachment of Alejandro Mayorcas.
Officially, you have pointed out that Secretary Mayorcas has willfully and systematically refused to comply with the laws of this country and breach the public trust.
And all of that is true.
Um look, I don't think there's any chance.
I'm I'm not even sure they'll have a trial in the Senate because Democrats, you know, rule the roost there, and I think Republicans in the Senate, half of them are bunch of rhinos and they're weak, and and frankly, the fact that they don't embrace this as a top campaign issue is unbelievable to me because the American people have made it their top campaign issue.
So but but regardless of that, it doesn't it shouldn't stop the House from doing the right thing.
Uh you do the right thing and you don't worry about the outcome.
And for that I applaud all the Republicans that stuck together on this, and I know there were three defections, Gallagher and McClintock and uh what's his name for Ken Buck from uh Colorado.
It's frustrating to me.
Um what part of this argument did they not like?
Those guys uh you know voiced a higher standard for high crimes and misdemeanors that I think is just totally wrong.
I I think they had to have dreamed it up.
Um very clearly.
I mean, if you look at Madison who wrote the Constitution, by the way, he was elected to the House and was uh basically debating the formation of what would become the State Department.
And and there's this discussion about well, what happens if we form this and and uh and a secretary gets in there and he's a bad person.
And Madison says words to this effect if an unworthy president appoints an unworthy person to office, we'll impeach him.
So it's it's not about uh elements of a crime having to do, you know, they didn't even have a criminal code back then, hardly.
So this idea that the the guy has to commit some kind of crime and meet the elements of a crime, i is is false.
And and it's not uh historically accurate, and they clung to that uh unfortunately.
Yeah.
Well, I again I want to just say I applaud all your efforts.
I'm glad the rest most of the Republican conference got together on this.
The other one thing I'd like to see them exert some control over if they can get everybody to unite.
Uh it's a little more difficult today after the race in New York, but that would be the budget.
I think Republicans need to leverage everything they've got to try and get spending under control.
Uh all those things, the border and the budget need to be the top priorities before they start, you know, sending another $75 billion to Ukraine and and other foreign aid issues.
I'm not saying they're not important issues.
They certainly need to be debated.
Uh there's got to be a limit.
Uh Europe has not done their fair share as far as I'm concerned in Europe, but you know, we could talk discuss all that for another day.
Um do you have any idea?
Do you think the Senate takes it up or you don't have a guess?
I don't I don't have a guess.
Uh well, if I had a guess, they're gonna either not take it up at all or make it something very quick and short, because every time we get up and talk about what's happening at the southern border, they're not gonna take it up or they're they're gonna make it a very short procedure.
Yeah, I think you're probably right, but that does not um negate the efforts that you guys put in, and I think you did the right thing.
Uh anyway, Congressman, doctor, medical doctor, uh Mark Green, Chairman of the Homeland Security Committee uh from Tennessee.
Thank you, sir.
Appreciate you being with us.
