Time Text
This is an iHeart Podcast.
This is an iHeart Podcast.
It's All right, Leonard Skinner's simple man, that can only mean one thing on this radio program.
That is all things self-proclaimed simple man.
That means all things Bill O'Reilly, all things Bill O'Reilly of Bill O'Reilly.com.
Uh by the way, we are waiting for Bill O'Reilly's uh soon-to-be best-selling book, Confronting Evil, assessing the worst of the worst.
The only offensive part is he put my picture on the cover uh along with uh of the Ayatolicomania and and others.
I don't I'm I'm so offended by that.
I don't I don't even know if I'm gonna give you a cupcake interview.
You know, uh you are disguised as the Ayatollah Hannity.
In the minds of some, you know, so it's on with Patrick Bett David, who I really like.
Uh I know you've been on his podcast before yesterday.
And on the show, and you know, it was it was very obvious that you know, some people that former colleagues, including yourself, that they were interested if I didn't like you guys, and I'm like, no, I mean, I get along great with Bill.
You're on my radio show.
I have nothing against anybody that has opinions that are different than mine.
Um, some people that made other career decisions than I made, I mean, have all said to me, you you've told me many times you're very happy with how your career's turned out, and you like doing your own thing right now, and it's doing very, very well.
Um, but but I just want you to know I went to bat for you.
Well, uh Patrick likes me.
Uh, you know, but all of these podcasters are looking for headlines, and that is the quickest way to get them because then they get clicks.
You know the game.
Um so I gave President Trump a report card yesterday uh for six months.
How he did in various important uh categories.
Well, uh I saw that, but that's not my question for you today.
I don't care about your report card.
Oh, you don't care?
You know about my report card?
No.
Not even not even I I I I saw you did it on, I guess you went on with Cuomo.
You you're like the only person that I got.
Just let me make one point about this.
The headline said it O'Reilly gives Trump a mediocre.
Okay, that was not true.
And now let's say way back into your point.
It is foolish for any former employee of any American corporation to attack the corporation publicly.
You will not win.
Your case will not be accurately reported by anyone.
on.
So you are a fool if you get into that.
If you've got a beef, get a lawyer.
Now, in my case, this was ultimately the best thing that could happen.
And I'll tell you something I haven't told anybody else, but you're my pal.
I got to spend ten times more with my son, who's 12 when I left FNC.
And if I had continued that grueling, and you know how grueling it is, uh situation, I never would have been able to spend that time with him.
All right, here's what I do want to talk to you about, um, because I think it matters.
There is now officially opened by the FBI a grand conspiracy investigation uh into deep state operatives and whether they've been putting cement blocks on the scales of not one, not two, but three presidential elections.
I'll try to make this quick, but I I've got to give a little foundation.
Then I promise I hand the ball to you, and I will shut up.
I promise.
Uh, if you go back to 2016, we now know that there was damning information that was completely ignored, according to the release by Tulsi Gabbard, and new documents that have been revealed.
The Comey totally ignored documents that were very damning for Hillary Clinton, and then his famous July 2016 press conference, no reasonable prosecutor would ever prosecute, and basically gave her a get-out-of-jail free card as it relates to the servers and bleach bit and of course broken devices with hammers and SIM cards removed.
But also what happened that year is they were warned, Comey in particular was warned, warned as early as August of 2016 not to use the Hillary Clinton bought and paid for dirty Russian disinformation dossier.
It became the basis of four-five applications to ruin Carter Page's life, but also that represented because of his relationship with Trump, a backdoor to spy on the Trump campaign, his transition team, and later his presidency, because there were three renewals.
That's a full year of spying that went on, but they, but the bulk of information was now the debunked and they knew at the time it was questionable.
Dirty dossier that Hillary Clinton paid for.
To me, that is putting cinder blocks on the scale of an election.
And then it evolved into shortly thereafter, the intelligence declassified by Tulsi Gabbard, showed that that career intelligence officials had determined that there was no Trump Russia collusion.
They were very, very clear about it.
The only Russia collusion information came from the dossier that Hillary paid for, the Russian dossier.
And then once the the higher-ups within these three-letter agencies got a hold of this information, they turned it on its head, they polluted it, they corrupted it, and they made it the exact opposite of what it said.
We learned that through the these documents.
Okay.
That to me is deep state operatives putting cinder blocks on the scale of an election.
That is a grand conspiracy.
That is part of Cash's investigation.
Fast forward, and we'll go to 2020.
And we know that in March of 2020, to give the exact timeline that the FBI had verified the authenticity of the very real laptop from Hell of Hunter Biden.
And yet they went on a mission of debunking that laptop by meeting weekly with every big tech company all throughout the summer of 2020, warning them that they may be victims of a Russian disinformation campaign.
It may be about Joe Biden, maybe about Hunter Biden, maybe about Barisma.
Lo and behold, they all knew at the time that Bob Costello, who was then Rudy Giuliani's attorney, had a copy of that laptop, and he would drop it.
In other words, it would be made public.
The New York Post drops the story.
Those big tech companies, especially Mark Zuckerberg, to his credit, and to Jack Dorsey's credit, who was running Twitter, They said, Is this what you were warning us about?
They knew that the laptop was real, but they wouldn't confirm what they knew to be true, which they should have.
That suppressed the story that that otherwise would have killed Joe Biden's presidential aspirations.
Now, fast forward to everything that happened between 2020 and 2024 in terms of weaponization at the DOJ and lawfare.
The raid at Mar-a-Lago statute of limitations had run out in New York City on a legal nondisclosure agreement labeled as such and and paid as a legal expense.
And they come up with a novel legal theory by a D.A. that ran on a platform to get Trump.
Okay, putting more cinder blocks now on the third presidential election.
That is the grand conspiracy that is being investigated.
I will use your words.
What say you about all of this in total, Mr. O'Reilly?
All right.
And I'm going to run down methodically.
So the big villain, as far as what Gabbard made public late last night, is John Brennan, the former CIA director.
Brennan, I'm going to predict will be indicted.
Now there are a variety of crimes you can charge him with.
But there's no question, according to these documents, all right, that were classified for four or five years, that Brennan knew some of the stuff that he was making public was false and did it anyway.
And it's quoted in the report.
So that's number one.
He's in serious, serious trouble.
Comey's in trouble, but not as bad as Brennan, because Comey can make an argument that he corrected his mistakes with Hillary Clinton.
And, you know, because that's why he did that CYA in the last week of the 16 election saying, oh, we're reopening the case.
Because Comey was shrewd enough to know he had criminal exposure.
So he reversed it.
Now his lawyer's going to go in and say, Oh, you know, when he found out X and Y, he he corrected it.
So that could go either way.
The Hunter Biden stuff isn't going to rise to criminal prosecution by the federal government, even though you're correct, it did have a direct influence on 20 elections.
They had verified its authenticity.
They pre-bunked it with big tech as a means of suppressing the story when they knew it would come out because Bob Costello had a copy of it and they knew he would release it.
But I'm talking about federal indictments here.
Well, if you is that not election interference by definition?
The 51 people who signed on to that phony um Hunter Biden, this is Russian disinformation, were civilians at the time.
They're gonna go in and say that was my opinion.
And I don't think they're gonna even be charged because the the government knows what they're gonna do.
The other guy that that has not really been thrown out here is a director of national intelligence, Clapper, James Clapper.
You remember CNN just put Brennan and Clapper on all the time to push this well Clapper, I think got hired by fake news CNN and Brennan by fake, you know, fake news MSDNC.
Right, but Clapper is a I think Clapper's got some problems too.
See, you're gonna get them when they were working.
Yeah, I even think but I think it's deeper than that.
I think they all got problems.
You think they all are gonna get indicted?
I'll give you an example.
Let me let me take this.
Now remember, I spent three years of my life digging deep into this.
You know, some idiot post today, well, well, Hannity said that there was no Russian interference in the 2016 election.
When just I I have uh a book, Bill O'Reilly.
I had my staff research today, and all the times I said that there was never any Trump Russia collusion, that that the Russia hoax was a hoax.
The only Russian interference was Hillary Clinton's bought and paid for Russian disinformation dossier.
But if you go back just at the end of the Obama administration and a meeting just weeks before Donald Trump is to take the presidency, you have all of these people, Obama and Biden and Susan Rice and Com uh Comey and Clapper and Brennan at all meeting, and then minutes before Trump is sworn in, that's when Susan Rice did the famous CYA memo, Barack Obama on that meeting weeks ago said to do everything by the book.
Uh James Comey said, do everything by the book.
Uh obviously they were afraid what would be discovered.
Okay.
Let me let me jump in here.
I hate to say this, Hannity, but you weren't wrong on anything that you reported for more than a year that I can see.
And I you know me, if I thought you were wrong, I'd put it right between your eyes.
So you you had the story correct.
That's number one.
Number two, I'm a detailed guy.
I'm a reporter.
I know I'm a news analyst, and that's why I'm famous.
But I'm a reporter at heart.
Okay.
What I'm looking for from Gabbard is if Gabbard's gonna go out and say Barack Obama did X and Y, you gotta back it up.
It is not backed up in these documents here.
You can surmise it absolutely.
But if you have you done a deep read into what Gabbard released, the rank and file within the Intel community, career intel uh community people said that the Russia hoax didn't exist.
It's only when it got in the hands at of uh according to reports, uh at the express desire of then President Obama that he got the clappers, the Comey's, the Brennans involved, that it it literally it w even though it said one thing, they said the exact opposite that it occurred.
And they created this narrative that led to a three year witch hunt based on a phony dossier and based on lies from their own intelligence community and assessments.
Hey, listen to me, you can lay it out, but you can't prove it in a court of law.
Plus, they're not going to indict Obama because he's going to cite executive privilege.
Um and he's gonna say, look, my advisors led me astray.
What the hell you want me to do about it?
They're not.
They're not.
If anybody thinks Barack Obama's gonna get indicted, they're crazy.
He's not.
All right.
But uh I'm not I'm not making predictions about indictments.
I will say this.
I think what they did is they still I I've I've got a roll.
You have two choices.
You can stay and or you can go.
It's up to you.
Set the record straight here because it's such an important story.
All right, stay right there.
More with all things simple man Bill O'Reilly, all things O'Reilly at Bill O'Reilly dot com.
All right, I wanted I didn't want to rush Bill O'Reilly's final conclusion on whether or not there has been a grand conspiracy and this new information being dropped by Tulsi Gabbard, now declassified, and this this now encompasses not one, not two, but three presidential elections in different ways.
2016 about Russia collusion, a double standard with Hillary Clinton and top secret information.
Uh whether it was a complete setup from the beginning, and we now have declassified information that shows that rank and file career intelligence officials uh did not think that Putin was favoring Donald Trump over Hillary Clinton.
The only Russian interference that we see is from Hillary Clinton's bought and paid for Russian dossier, uh, which again most of the the lame stream state run legacy media mob ignored.
Then of course the pre-bunking of the laptop that they had verified its authenticity of in March of of 2020, and then of course the lawfare and the weaponization issues involving the 2024 election.
You know, are they are deep state operatives putting cinder blocks on the scales of presidential elections and and who will be account ho held accountable, hopefully for what?
Mr. O'Reilly, your conclusion to all of this.
Okay, I know you're trying to get rid of me, Hannity.
I'm not offended.
Uh I'm a simple man, so I'm gonna keep it really tight.
All right.
Number one, when people look at this story, they should read what the um committee found out when they interviewed the associate of Vladimir Putin.
That is a very key part of this, and has not really been heightened by the press.
Guys, flat out, Putin didn't care who won.
And you can read it for yourself.
That's number one.
Number two, I'm the head of the FBI.
What do I do, Hannity?
All right, here's what I do.
I indict Brennan, the former CIA director right away.
You got enough evidence to take it to court, you might lose, but you probably won't.
All right, because he did it.
Then on Comey, uh, I might indict Uncomey, but I'm not a hundred percent on it.
On Adam Schiff, who's now the senator from California, he was the head of the committee that did all of these interviews, wrote the classified report.
I would send FBI agents in to interview Schiff again right now.
If you lie to an FBI agent, that is a felony.
But remember, Biden gave him a preemptive pardon, Bill.
Okay, does it matter though?
He gave him a preemptive part of her past actions.
You lie now, that does not count.
If he lies now, now the interesting thing is is if he is brought before Congress because he got the preemptive pardon, he does not have the ability to plead the Fifth Amendment, as you know.
But but I'm looking for criminals here.
I'm not looking look, if you think that Adam Schiff is an honest man, then you're out of the um rational zone for me.
He was sending there is a reason we do refer to him as the congenital liar, but go ahead.
But but look, I'm the FBI director.
I send my guys in.
Schiff tells me everything that he knew why he said all of these lies.
Ships lied about 40 times.
Why'd you lie about this?
Why'd you lie about that?
I think that's a low estimate, but yes, he he and and Devin Nunes, I mean, was called the liar by the mainstream media.
Everything he wrote was true.
Yeah.
And the same thing with you, as I said earlier.
So you got attacked.
I remember those attacks.
All right, by the other media.
The other media is we don't have to worry about them anymore because they're just collapsing.
But I think that the FBI is a big role here.
But don't overreach.
I agree with that.
I I I think that listen, they're very they're very methodical in how they're releasing this information, this declassified information, and I think the country needs to know.
There's a great danger to our constitutional republic if in fact you have people in these these high positions of power, and they're putting cinder blocks on the scales of a presidential election.
The country had a right to know, yet 51 former Intel agents that knew nothing about Hunter Biden's laptop that had been verified as authentic by the FBI in March of 2020.
This is October of 2020 when the New York Post drops the story.
They did it for political purposes.
Now, they lied to the country purposefully.
In the case of the Russia collusion hoax, there never was any interference, and according to the release of Tulsi Gabbard, the just the opposite was the case.
There wasn't Trump Russia collusion that they determined existed until it got in the hands of these quote higher up deep state operatives, then the narrative flipped on purpose.
That's to put a cinder block, and I'm using my analogy on the scale of an election.
All of the law fair we saw saw from 20 to 24 was to prevent Donald Trump from ever having a shot to be president again.
Again, cinder blocks would be my example on the scales of an election.
Do you disagree with any of that?
No.
But to advance the story, the President Trump, if he wants to be considered a great president, has to order his Justice Department to indict when necessary.
Okay, and to expose the entire thing to the American people.
And whoever gets hurt gets hurt.
Fair?
Fair.
I think I think you did a good job today, Mr. O'Reilly.
I'm going to give you a grade of a B minus.
Yeah, well, Andy, I'd never take your class anyway.
There's no way.
You wouldn't take my class.
You'd be too disruptive.
I have to throw you out and give you a demerit.
Um all right, Bill O'Reilly, all things O'Reilly at Bill O'Reilly.com.
We appreciate your time, sir.
Thank you.
All right, let's head back to our busy phones, 800-941 Sean, if you want to be a part of the program.
Let's go to Paul, my free state of Florida.
Paul, hey, how are you?
Glad you called.
Thanks for being with us.
Wonderful.
Thank you, Mr. Hannity.
Yesterday there was talk about you running for the presidency, which we think is a great idea.
But we also think you've got a running mate, a possible running mate that would clean house, detailed oriented, absolutely wonderful person.
I think Miss Linda would be the person.
Oh, geez.
Seriously.
Do you realize how why one of the great reasons our relationship works so well is she's in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania and I'm in the free state of Florida?
Do you understand if if we're in the same room for that long a period of time, it's only a matter of time until she kills me.
I haven't killed you so far in 20 years.
I mean, all hail the chief.
I'll be the VP.
I'm fine with that.
That's fine.
But but you you get to see me in doses, which is good because it's it's always fun, and then you get to go.
I can see you even less if I was the vice president because you know I would be the world, you know, spreading the message of hope and good cheer and getting rid of all of the radicals that fill our nation and our nation, right?
Admit.
Uh she would be end up being as controversial, if not more, than Donald Trump if you knew her the way I did.
Let me tell you something.
This country's ready for a little controversy.
They are looking for somebody to get it here's Madam Vice President.
I am ready to serve my people.
I'm here.
I'm gonna kick out everybody who doesn't belong here.
I'm gonna tell everybody the way it is, and everybody's gonna like it.
Oh, Jesus.
You're welcome, America.
Well now, just for the records.
I'm in the middle of doing my show last night, and then in a break, uh my my staff talks to me in my ear and they go, It's all over the place that you're thinking about running for president.
And I I have never been asked about if I have any such desire or intention to do so.
I do not know where this all came from.
Do you have any idea in terms of the you know where this originated from, Linda?
I have no idea.
I think what has really happened, and and I say this I don't want to toot my own horn or blow smoke, but I think people are excited about the ticket.
And I think when they heard that I might be your VP, they were like, you know what?
Sean Hannity for president might be good because Linda will definitely be in the first time the ticket even got discussed is this call today.
We never had a there's tons of chatter about it online.
Lots of chatter.
Right.
So let's go.
Let's go.
By the way, how was the poll yesterday that uh came out?
We did a poll, didn't we?
We did do a poll.
What was the poll again?
I know you're excited to talk about the poll because you won the poll.
Everybody knows.
No, you don't always win.
First of all, I think what I learned um high level is that our audience is has an an inability to discern what is dancing for you.
Oh, you're attacking the people.
I am attacking the artists.
That's my job as the vice president to give it like it is.
So America, you don't know what dancing looks like for this white Irishman, okay?
Him running is.
So it had to do with me singing the devil went down to Georgia with Charlie Daniels, and Linda claimed I was dancing, and I'm like, I don't dance.
I didn't dance in the video.
It just was the way that you dance, and I think that's a good idea.
No, running is not dancing.
I was running around throwing footballs out of the crowd during moments when I wasn't singing the chorus with Charlie.
Like I said, you won the poll.
You won it fair and square.
I've learned two things.
What was the final outcome?
You won.
That's all that matters.
You won.
No, no, no.
What was the final out?
What was the final percentage outcome?
I think it's like you won like 70%.
Uh-huh.
Yeah, I know.
It's a it's a proud day, Mr. President.
You are welcome.
All right.
Well, Paul, you're very nice to say so.
Um, I have no intention of running.
I don't think I could be elected dog catcher even in the free state of Florida.
I just don't.
I I I I I listen, if you wanted to know what kind of president I would be, I can tell you.
I I would just follow up with the policies that are successful of Donald Trump, and I would I would magnify them uh as much as I possibly could.
I mean, he actually came forward with a a great idea today, thinking out of the box, only as Trump seems to do in the world of politics, that he would eliminate capital gains when people sell their homes.
I love that idea.
That happened.
Yes.
Great.
How great that would be for the, for the home building industry and the real estate, Real estate industry.
I mean, that is the lag the lagging indicator in the economy now is all Jerome Powell driven because of the high interest rates.
Nobody's gonna give up a 30-year fixed rate mortgage uh to get a seven, seven and a half percent 30-year fixed rate mortgage because it's thousands of dollars more a month.
And it's just unfair.
It's keeping young people out of the housing market, it's forcing older people, you know, to stay in homes when they want to retire.
It's it's terrible and it's unnecessary.
I think it I think it's a great idea.
I really do.
And and and and you magnifying his policies, that's that's a better idea.
And Paul, when Sean and I run the country, we will adhere to these policies and even expand upon them for the American people, right, Sean?
First of all, I don't think you get past the vetting.
I think you meant to say, yes, madam, vice president to be.
I think that that's what you meant to say.
You just you tripped off.
It's fine.
I am not taking this any further, or else you're going to Stephen A. Smith me, and that means everywhere I go, I'm gonna have to answer this question.
Um, and Stephen A. Smith loved every single solitary second of it.
Maybe me and Stephen A. should run.
Actually, you know what?
It could be me, you, and Stephen A, and he could be like, I don't know, Chief of Staff.
That would be fun.
Oh, I this is not even a team of rivals.
This is a team of uh it would be bad.
It would be a good one.
And I think that you need to be able to do that.
I would I would find the best job for you.
Madam Vice President, yes, I take it.
Thank you.
No, I'm um I'm not sure that's the right role for you.
That is my goal.
Uh more American than me.
Your goal is for me to run for president.
Are you out of your mind?
No, my goal is for you to run so I can be Madam Vice President.
That's my goal.
Let's be clear.
