This is an iHeart Podcast.
This is an iHeart Podcast.
Oh, it's so It's so easy All right, Leonard Skinner's simple man.
That could only mean one thing on this radio program.
All things self-proclaimed, simple man.
That means all things Bill O'Reilly, all things Bill O'Reilly of Bill O'Reilly.com.
He now has his latest best-selling book out uh in bookstores everywhere.
We have a link on Hannity.com, Amazon.com.
Uh the timing couldn't be any more perfect.
It's called Confronting the Presidents, no spin assessments from Washington to Biden.
Uh, Mr. O'Reilly, I guess I have to congratulate you yet again for another huge, massive top number one selling best book, uh, best-selling book.
Congratulations, sir.
Well, it's very nice of you to say, and uh, you're part of the success.
Obviously, the biggest radio state show in the world.
Um, so we're happy to be on every Wednesday, and thank you for reading the book, and I'm glad you liked it.
I read it, I liked it, and I learned a lot, and and you go through every president, straight on through Joe Biden, and Biden did not score particularly well in this book.
And and honestly, it does reflect on Kamala Harris, doesn't it?
Sure.
I mean, uh, I have uh Biden, and we don't rank them per se in confronting the presidents, but I in my essay on Biden, I wrote essays on Trump and Biden because history isn't fully developed yet on those two men.
And so the essays took the place of all the other chapters is just straight history is who they were, is what they did, you decide how bad or good they were.
With Biden now got him as the second worst president because he created the problems that we are all facing now.
Other bad presidents like Jimmy Carter, Herbert Hoover, uh Philmore, Pierce, um, those people, they inherited stuff and couldn't they just couldn't solve it.
All right, it was beyond them.
But Biden gets into office, he creates the open border.
And I wish Trump would would uh highlight this.
He gets into office and he basically writes an executive order that commands homeland security to allow anyone who is seeking asylum to enter the United States.
Don't have to go to a port of entry anywhere.
And then let them go.
Catch and release.
That is catastrophic.
No president ever came close to insane policy like that.
And the result is between 10 and 15 million foreign nationals running around this country with no supervision.
Again, Congress didn't do it.
By the way, it's even worse than that, because they're unvetted.
They come from a hundred and eighty countries.
They come from our top geopolitical foes and countries who are terror ties, and that would even include Iran and Syria and Egypt and Afghanistan and Venezuela, and tens and tens of thousands from China and and Russia.
And I don't think they're coming here because they want a better life.
And it gets worse than that, Bill, because Kamala is on record.
She wants to decriminalize illegal immigration, offer free housing, health care, education, and sex change operations.
She's on record saying it.
And on top of that, she wants amnesty or earned paths to citizenship if you want to play, you know, partial words, but it basically is amnesty, which would allow all of these people to get something of great worth, which I'm sure they'd be indebted to the Democrats for.
Look, I'm a fair man.
You know that my book, it fairly assesses people.
Some migrants come here and they're good people and they're desperate, and that's why they come.
But you can't take the chance of allowing 10 to 15 million people who you don't know anything about to come in here unattended.
That is what Joe Biden did.
It is inexplicable.
That is what Joe Biden and Kamala Harris did.
I mean, you you can't exonerate her from this.
She was the border czar.
I'm gonna get to her, but I gotta lay the foundation for this, because I think it's very important that Trump and the Republicans understand it, and they don't clearly understand it yet.
There's too much emotion in this.
All right.
So Biden does this thing only by executive order.
He's got a stooge running Homeland Security Mayorcus New Yorkists does what he says.
He then he's got a vice president who not only acquiesces, as all vice presidents have to do.
You can't speak out against your boss if you're vice president.
Uh only Aaron Burr did that.
I think the only guy.
But she cheerleaded it.
She cheerleaded the open border.
Now she says, oh, we need secure borders.
Well, how what happened in the last three years, lady?
Okay, you were cheerleading this.
Oh no.
Remember how many times she said, Tom Larry said, our borders secure.
Flat out said it.
Our border secure.
No, it wasn't.
So now she finds herself running for president, and as you just said, her vision is full amnesty for anybody except convicted felons and full entitlement plate, including transition surgery expenses.
So she's going to add three trillion dollars to our already $35 trillion debt to service all of these people that Biden let in, and then more will come when word gets out that you come here to America and we pay for everything.
What do you think is going to happen?
In August, the migrant uh border confrontations rose again to about 40,000.
And the border patrol is standing there going, look, this is never going to stop as long as we have a progressive administration.
And that is the truth.
And there is not one other president in our history that has created a problem like that.
The rest of them, Buchanan's the worst, because he allowed the South to arm and growing ferocity in the Civil War.
But nobody, nobody created problems at that level.
And Biden Harris did.
It is the biggest national security threat this country has ever faced.
And you said something earlier, which is dead on.
Every problem that we are now facing as a country, that would include high energy prices.
That would include Harris Biden inflation.
That would include the largest national security threat in our lifetime.
We have known terrorists in the country, Bill, and they don't know where they are.
They know they're here, but they don't know where they are.
They won't release the information from about what countries they came from.
But we do know 180 countries people have come from, including the ones that I mentioned.
And I don't think those people are coming here because they want a better life for themselves or their their families.
They've done absolutely no background checks on anybody.
They're even flying people in direct with, you know, don't pass go, don't collect $200.
They're just flying him into you know the United States so they don't have the southern border on display as being as cluttered and messed up as it is.
Um we've got a problem.
And you know, voting is now started.
We're only 48 days away from election day.
Voting is started in Pennsylvania.
It's rolling out now around the country.
Ballots are being mailed out as we speak.
And I don't think all the radicalism, and I went through this with you last week, uh uh Kamala in her own words, is known by the overwhelming amount of the American people, and that that concerns me in the media, you know, being a corrupt institution is helping her.
You know, I think most Americans understand there's something wrong with Vice President Harris.
I I believe that.
One other thing that I learned you may not know, Hannity, is in the polling you get now, and you and I were at the forefront of changing this.
The polling operations have to say how many Republicans, how many Democrats, how many independents they sampled.
You know what they don't have to say?
What the gender was.
So my sources are telling me, and I believe it to be true, that the left wing polling outfits, and most of them are, are now sampling far more females than males, because females have a tendency to vote progressive.
And so they're tipping the scale in the polling by gender.
How about that?
Pretty interesting, right?
I am told by pollsters that I really know to be honest and trustworthy and true that that is exactly what is happening.
And the other thing is they know about polling that has gone on that has not been favorable to Kamala that they don't even publish.
Well, the individual pollsters can make anything come out the way they want.
That's the point of it.
Now I want to bring in another historical thing.
You're a history guy.
I am strategy, and it continues to this day to this hour, is not to answer any direct questions.
And the reason she doesn't want to answer is she doesn't have any answers.
So at yesterday at the uh a black journalist conference in Philadelphia, once again, there was a question, and it was a softball display, unlike the Trump thing in July.
Um, all right, how are you gonna tamp down Gaza Israel?
And again, she just didn't answer it.
Well, we're working around the clock.
What working doing what?
Now one other president did this, Warren Harding, 1920, the mortal.
You go out today, Hannity, after your show, and you stop somebody on the street, you go, how about that Warren Hardy?
And you go, he's a rapper, right?
Isn't he a rapper?
Warren, I love him.
Nobody knows who Warren Harding is.
But Warren Harding runs in 1920.
Americans have set up with the Democratic Party, Woodward Wilson, that was the World War One era.
They would have voted for chimpanzee other over the Democrats in 20.
All right, and Warren was the chimp.
Warren lives in Marion, Ohio, doesn't campaign, and Kamala campaigns, but Warren refuses to answer any questions at all about Kamala yesterday asked about the Secret Service, and she starts talking about Project 2025 that Trump has denied any knowledge of or any participation in, but she keeps spreading that lie.
You mean uh you mean a moment like that?
It's just crazy.
I mean, I want John Lovitz, the SNO guy, to follow around going, Yeah, that's the ticket.
Remember him?
The guy in the Yeah, exactly.
Yeah, that's a ticket.
Anyway, Harding uh wins.
And he goes to the White House, one of the worst presidents ever.
All he does is play cards all night long with his corrupt cronies we gave jobs to, get drunk and chase his mistress around a White House for three years.
Because Americans had no blanket idea who he was or what he would do.
And that's what you get.
The problem it's actually worse though, because we know what she would do.
We know where she stands on energy.
We know where she stands on open borders, we know where she stands on her economic policy.
Did you hear Paulson's comments what he would do if Kamala Harris tries to he's gonna pull all of his money out of the market and and and put it in cash and in gold, and he's not gonna be in the market because if she does go forward with her stated positions, it will be a 1929 market crash on steroids and human growth hormone.
And and I don't care what what the Fed does in terms of trying to influence the election with an interest rate reduction, which I'd actually like to see personally.
I'm not sure the time is right, especially because unemployment has been on a dramatic, you know, traject tr uh trajectory upwards, um, and that could in and of itself trigger recession.
Uh, but every American, you know, yesterday at this this uh black journalist association uh thing, you know, she had to acknowledge that her policies have failed.
A year ago she was saying, we call it Bidenomics, and we're proud of it.
Now she's saying and acknowledging the obvious that Americans have been feeling For three plus years, and that is that everything is it costs more at every store you go to and everything you want to buy.
It's uh we've all been suffering under it, but she's been in denial about it.
But the problem is when you say we all know, we all don't know.
Those who pay anybody that fills up their gas tank or goes grocery shopping, I know you have people for that, but I actually do my own grocery shopping and and pump gas in my own car.
You don't do that.
Okay.
Um we comprises we the people, and half of we the people don't know anything.
And when the media is pounding day in and day out that this is a visionary who will help your life, as they are doing with Kamala Harris, millions of Americans are buying this.
So the only way to overcome that is for the candidate himself, Donald Trump, to go out in a very stark way, just as our conversations every week, O'Reilly Hannity, we just get to it.
We don't talk about Let me let me ask you this.
Don't do this other stuff.
We get to it.
And that we get right we get right down to it.
And we um I I think people enjoy the fact that we are giving them news and information, they're not gonna get anywhere else and opinion, they're not gonna get anywhere else.
All right, quick break.
We'll come right back more with Simple Man Bill O'Reilly's new book out is called Confronting the Presidents, No Spin Assessments from Washington to Biden, Amazon.com, Hannity.com, bookstores around the country as we continue.
All right, uh, we continue with uh all things simple man Bill O'Reilly.
Just a few final thoughts, then we'll get to your calls at 800-941 Sean.
Uh Bill's new book is out.
It's on Hannity.com, Amazon.com, bookstores around the country.
It's called Confronting the Presidents, just out.
No spin assessments from Washington to Biden.
You know, here we are, early voting started.
Here we are, just 48 days from election day.
And Bill O'Reilly, you know, I I I've been a student of presidential politics, history like you, and that's why I did love your new book, Confronting the Presidents, and it's just came out in the last week.
I have no earthly idea how this is going to turn out.
And I think anybody that says they they do know how it's going to turn out, they're just guessing.
What are your thoughts?
Um there's too many things that are volatile.
This is one of the most dangerous, and I use that word literally, campaigns in American history.
This is flat out dangerous.
It's like Lincoln running against McClellan in 1864.
Um, and we don't know.
But there are trends developing.
Trump can win, but he has got to focus laser-like on what we focus on every Wednesday on the Hannity Radio program.
I got a role, Bill O'Reilly confronting the presidents.
No spin assessments from Washington and Biden.
It's on Hannity.com, Amazon.com, bookstores around the country.
Uh Simple Man, Bill O'Reilly, we appreciate you being with us.
Thank you, sir.
Okay, thanks for having me.
800-941 Shaunus number.
All right, let's get to our busy phones now.
I know many of you have been very, very, very, very patient here.
Uh let us say hi to Nita is in Arizona.
Nita, hi, how are you?
Glad you called.
I'm fine, Sean.
Thanks for taking my call, and thank you for all you do.
Thank you for being with us.
We appreciate it.
We love our friends in Arizona.
We need our friends in Arizona pretty desperately.
Glad you're out there.
Oh, yeah, I'm here for sure.
Um, I just wanted to say my husband and I are both retired law enforcement officers.
Thank you for your service, by the way.
Well, thank you.
It was uh it was an amazing career.
Uh we had the honor to and the honor and the privilege to be chosen to be assigned to President Reagan's permanent security duty when he came to our area.
It was an amazing, it was uh I'll never forget it.
I'm five five, a hundred and ten pounds.
So I was really good.
It was a good spot for me to be perimeter.
And when I saw in Butler, I mean, I'm not criticizing those those brave female officers, but they just didn't have the stature to protect him.
And I just I don't know if is that DEI?
I don't know.
But that really bothered me.
And again, where were the canine officers?
I was uh exposed to detection canine handler, and I did many sweeps of buildings and fields.
There was no canine officers that I saw either in Butler or uh on Sunday, and I just don't understand.
You know I I I could only tell you I I'd never played Trump International.
I've I've been to the club maybe two or three times for breakfast with friends.
And uh it's a it's a nice place.
They're members, I'm not, and and they brought me there for like a brunch or something like that.
And it's a beautiful club, beautiful golf course.
So I I but I'd never played golf there.
I I kind of had to give up golf a number of years ago because I just don't have the time to play to be very very honest with you.
And if you don't play golf regularly, there's kind of no point because it's one of those sports you really have to devote a decent amount of time to.
And and maybe one day I'll have time to play.
If I don't, I don't really care.
My life's not contingent on golf.
And I didn't know the layout of the course until I had deeper conversations uh with friends of mine that have played it, including and I talked to Eric Trump about it.
I talked to Ronda Santas about it, uh, I talked to my friend Steve Whitcoff, who was playing with the president that day, and I had had breakfast with him that morning, and then when I realized that when you get to holes four, five, and six, that this is the mo it is the a known vulnerable area, and they did not sweep the tree the trees where it is well known that, for example, paparazzi often hangs out in to get pictures and videos of Donald Trump playing golf.
That's the only location on the golf course that they would have easy access to get that.
But the idea that somebody can get into that street area with an AK-47 and a scope, and that the treat area was not swept, and they didn't have eyes on it at all, and but for one secret service agent, and I would argue luckily seeing the barrel of that gun.
Luckily, if if if the person was a m maybe more of a trained assassin, and he'd been had buried himself and cut camouflaged himself on the ground and didn't pull out did not pull out the rifle till he was immediately ready to shoot.
Donald Trump wouldn't be alive today in all likelihood.
That is chilling to me.
And it's just wrong.
And then the Secret Service patting themselves and Mayorchus on the back, telling us how great they were and how the plan worked.
The plan didn't work because you can't allow anybody with a high-powered rifle that close to a potential target, and and obviously the number one, you know, target for assassination in our country today seems to be Donald Trump.
And I feel that this was a spectacular failure on their part.
Now, on the other side of it, the Secret Service agents around the president on the golf course, surrounding him were heroic, amazing, professional.
They did the best job under the most difficult circumstances imaginable.
They all put their lives at risk for him, and they they safely, you know, uh uh jumped on him, protected him, and got him the hell out of there.
I mean, that though they're all heroes in my book.
But the it but the lead up to this should never happen.
And we have a big problem.
And then we're hearing about well, they didn't have enough resources, and I I don't want to hear those excuses.
There's no excuse for that.
No.
No.
There's absolutely none.
I just I'm just worried.
I'm so worried.
And I'm I'm extremely I this is twice now.
I I nearly lost a dear friend of mine.
I was friends with Donald Trump long before Donald Trump ever became a presidential ever became a political figure at all.
I knew him long before that.
Well, I I just I just hope that they are gonna straighten this out because um uh I'm just terrified.
I I just am, and I know the way things were supposed to happen, and they didn't.
And you know what else I'm terrified about?
And you're from law enforcement.
I would love your thoughts.
The idea that we have uh you know, over eleven million unvetted Harris Biden illegal immigrants from 180 countries, and I mentioned this with Bill O'Reilly, some of our top geopolitical foes, many were terror ties, known terrorists in the country, but we don't know where they are, is it tells me that 9-11 2.0 or worse is coming.
That means we are all at risk right now.
All of us are at risk.
And I don't want one American well, I don't want any more Americans to be murdered by their unvetted illegal immigrants.
We have a list of dozens and dozens of murdered Americans by unvetted Harris Biden illegals and other others raped and others victims of violent crime.
I scroll their names constantly on TV.
And all the the liberal media wants to talk about as cats and dogs in Springfield, Ohio, and ignore the real issue of murder and rape and violent crimes even committed against police officers in Times Square, New York on video.
They don't want to talk about that part.
Well, Bill O'Reilly brought something up a little a little while ago about the border is coming to everybody's front door.
Yep, it's here.
It it is.
And it's like I want to ask you, I mean, not you, but any anyone living in Arizona, don't you lock your doors at night?
Or do you leave them wide open like our border and letting people strangers just walk into your house?
Of course not.
It's it would be insane.
Look, I'm not going to go into any specifics, but in the course of my career, being a public figure and an outspoken conservative, I've I've had issues arise, security issues arise.
Linda uh can verify some of them are were pretty severe.
Linda, fair statement.
Yeah, I mean, I think people are fairly aggressive.
Yeah.
Uh you know one in particular that was really bad.
And I have to have a personal safety security plan in place at all times, and I do.
Now I I'm not the type of person needed that wants to travel around with a bunch of people with guns on and and earpieces in their ear.
I just uh I don't I'm uh that I you know I used to be a house painter and a bartender and uh and a cook and a dishwasher.
I'm sorry, I just it's alien to me.
Yeah.
But I I I have my own personal safety security plan.
I've become pretty skilled in in situational self-defense.
I've had a a a license to carry my entire adult life.
I love the non lethal technology that is burner, that's now a big part of my life.
And but I but that's how I have to live my life, and I have to make very, very consequential decisions when whether I'm going out with my children or my friends or whoever I happen to go out with.
I go to very specific places that I know where there's a a high degree of of safety, and I'm not I'm not walking into you know any store in New York City.
I was one of the re main reasons I left New York, to be honest.
I wasn't like there.
And I had to you know, I felt like if I'd walk into a restaurant, I was I was putting other people in my life, there I'd I was putting their safety in jeopardy, and I couldn't live with that.
Well, it's not fun.
No, no.
When we you know, of course we are prepared as well.
Um it's this is just not the country that I grew up in.
Um it's it it is getting worse and worse, and all of it as O'Reilly mentioned, and we've said many times, all of it preventable.
Nita, thank you to you and your husband.
God bless you both, okay?
We appreciate you being with us.
All right, quick break, right back to our phones, 800-941, if you want to be a part of the program as we continue.
Up next, our final roundup and information overload hour.
Up next, our final roundup and information overload hour.
All right, let's get back to our busy phones.
800 941 Shawn is our number.
Let's say hi to Tony is in Rhode Island.
Tony, where in Rhode Island do you live, sir?
Hey, I'm in Walwick, Sean.
And I know You're in Walwick.
You ever go to the Black Pearl in Newport?
I have not, no.
No, not been there.
You're gonna get the best clam chatter that you've ever had in your life at the Black Pearl.
Go to the Black Pearl and tell them your friend Sean Hannity sent you.
I shall do that, sir, when I'm out there, absolutely.
Well, listen, uh, I just want to touch a few bases here.
Um, freedom of speech, live and well for the leftists in the Hollywood elite of the country, so long as you're uh attacking conservatives.
And unfortunately, conservatives are the only people that are held accountable for any distasteful comments, charities.
Uh the major news networks, they they don't uh they don't challenge uh uh the Democrats on anything they say.
It's a basically it's a free pass.
And one other thing I want to say, Sean, my prayers are with President Trump, First Lady Melania, Trump family, and a special prayer to Baron.
God give him the strength, courage, and wisdom to deal with the terrible things that the people on the left, especially the so-called Hollywood elite, have said about his dad.
The world will hear great things about Baron in the coming future.
I can guarantee it.
I don't know the young man, but I I see pictures from time to time.
You know, and unlike the uh the other Trump children, who have decades of positive feedback from the people on the left, the Hollywood elite about their dad prior to him becoming president.
Barron has had to deal with two attempted assassinations on his dad.
Not to mention the hateful rhetoric that the leftists and Hollywood elite seem to think is appropriate.
It's gotta stop.
Well, I let me just tell you one thing, and I won't reveal too much.
Um, I am familiar with Baron Trump, and this kid is brilliant.
He is a great, great, great kid.
Both the president, Melania have done a phenomenal job with him.
Uh he's going to school in New York.
I went to this school myself at one point, and I pray for him, this family, Eric Trump's a great, you know, they're all I know the whole family.
They're friends of mine.
And what they have been through, what they have had to live through is beyond the pale, and it shouldn't be happening in this country.
And it's sad.
However, this this is this has got to stop.
And I will tell you, I really think the best the best thing we could do for our country right now is get to the ballot box, vote early, elect President Trump, and let's let's stop the madness of open borders, high energy costs, a horrible economy, inflation, you know, weakness on the world stage.
All of this is it's an inflection point, not only for the country, but for the world.
Uh, we need strength in DC, and Donald Trump will provide that.
Anyway, I appreciate you being with us.
800-941 is our number if you want to be a part of the program.
