Time Text
This is an iHeart Podcast.
That means all things Bill O'Reilly, all things Bill O'Reilly at billo'reilly.com.
Mr. O'Reilly, sir, it's always a pleasure to have you.
I know it's the highlight of your week.
How are you, sir?
Surfs up, Hannity.
We're I don't know why the sound of your voice cracks me up.
Just you being on the pro Patrick Bett David was asking about you when we were together.
We had a good time talking.
What does he want to know?
I'm an open book.
You know that.
No, I mean, he was mentioning people that had worked at Fox and don't.
And I said, well, everybody that I know that left tells me, and you more than anybody, to be very blunt, that you're happy with your career decisions.
And we discussed this a little bit last week.
And I said, my success or failure is not predicated on somebody else's failure or success.
And the intramural fighting days of my life and career are long gone.
I don't care.
I wish people all the best.
And I want to do the best shows I can do for my audience.
And that's where my focus is.
Well, that's true.
You're an elder statesman now.
You're rapidly aging.
What about you?
You're much older than me.
What is this?
I'm like.
I did see you lately.
I bought you breakfast as always.
I always pay.
Yeah, I'm like the rock here.
I mean, it's six-inch waist, but you have taken on wisdom now.
You know, it's interesting because the world, particularly the United States, is changing so dramatically that I'm in my 50th year of journalism.
And I couldn't have predicted when I left FNC eight years ago that independent journalism, because of the technology, would rise so quickly.
It was the same thing in 1996 when we, Hannity and I, were first on the bench at Fox News when it started.
We were there because of technology, because they had the ability to do 24-hour television news.
And then we stepped into that breach and became successful.
Well, the same thing has happened now, but in a different realm.
So now it's YouTube and Spotify and TikTok and all this other stuff that reaches an enormous amount of people that linear television doesn't.
So those of us who left linear television and have gotten into this world, and I didn't predict it, I mean, I just wanted to do interesting work, have now found ourselves, some of us, who put on an honest product, not garbage, in a very lucrative position.
And that's what that means.
No, and listen, we've both been blessed beyond our wildest dreams.
And I would add in my case, when I started in talk radio in 1987 or eight, I don't even remember what year, they were only like 200, 250 talk stations in the country, and it's grown and exploded.
You know, I never thought I'd be on over, what, 760 stations now, and I'm very blessed and honored to do it.
And I even do my own podcast, as you know, and on top of that for Fox.
And I love doing everything that I do all day, and I like to work hard.
All right, I'm going to give you a choice today.
Now, I have two topics for you.
I have one water cooler topic, and then I have one more serious topic.
Which one would you like to deal with first?
Let's go to the cooler first.
All right, water cooler first.
Sidney Sweeney.
I know you've been following the story.
There's a great piece on Foxnews.com, Why the War on Hot Women.
Now, listen, to me, she's a pretty young lady, young woman.
I don't, you know, she's, that's not how I would describe her.
Why the woke mob hates Sidney Sweeney?
I knew next to nothing about her, except she's all over the New York Post and has been for months and months and months, which is about all I really know about her.
Anyway, it's on MSDNC, for example, Sidney Sweeney's ad shows an unbridled cultural shift towards whiteness.
The amount of hatred that is being shown to this young woman who's doing an ad about genes.
She's obviously an attractive young woman.
Fine.
I wouldn't use the words they're using in headlines, et cetera, et cetera.
And I don't know where all the feminist outrage was with Dylan Mulvaney, et cetera, et cetera, but are celebrating womanhood, but they really are after her because, okay, she's doing a gene ad, meaning genes that you wear, and quote, a play on words, genes, and somehow they're taking this to Nazi eugenics.
I mean, it's insane.
I haven't, I have to confess that I don't know much about the young woman.
She's an actress.
I know she's in the American Eagle spot, but I don't know how they're making the linkage from trying to sell genes into the third rank.
What is the thread there?
What are they trying to say?
Because they're implying, and this is my take on it.
And Linda, you can weigh in if you feel differently.
Because she's a pretty young woman, she's an attractive young woman.
They use the word, they spell the word genes, G-E-N-E-S, and she's selling jeans, and that's the brand.
And anyway, and then Good Morning America, you know, she's being compared to Nazi propaganda.
How?
Now, all they're acknowledging is that she's an attractive young woman.
Okay, great.
They're using a play on words, and they're trying to somehow connect this.
Now, why is this?
Why are they going after this young woman?
I find it repulsive.
And they've lost their collective mind, and now she's under fire, you know, because of this American Eagle ad.
It makes me want to buy the ad and maybe even, you know, I don't even know what she does, to be honest.
I can't name one show she's been on or anything that she does.
I know she's in the paper all the time.
That's about it.
Yeah, because she's an attractive woman, and the tabloids use the women, and so does the internet to get clicks, and that's been going on since 1905.
But I still don't understand.
G-E-N-E-S genes.
I guess these kooks, these loons, believe that because this woman has good genes in that she's attractive, that this is some kind of eugenics tied into white superiority.
So when you hear something like that, there are two reactions.
Number one, who's ever saying it should be institutionalized, and we should send people over.
That's a good way to put it, but I think most of the left should be institutionalized at this point.
They've got to be analyzed.
They may be a danger to themselves, Sanity, and we want to be compassionate here.
Okay, that's number one.
And number two, they're so desperate to get people to pay attention to them.
The people that push this, MSNBC is a great example.
Desperate.
They don't know what to do.
The Epicene thing is running out of steam.
And their ratings are cratering.
So let's throw this poor woman up as some kind of, you know, SS woman or something.
I mean, it's so insane.
It's insane.
But it's more than insane.
It shows you how our culture has declined because you don't take a human being, this woman, and put her into a situation of mass murder, which is what the Third Reich was.
If you have any conscience, you don't do that.
That's appalling.
But they don't care.
And I don't know about the outrage.
I guess it's getting a lot.
I don't live in that internet world.
You know that.
But that's my water cooler analysis.
All right, quick break.
We'll come back with Bill O'Reilly, All Things Simple Man, 800-941.
Sean is on number.
We'll get to your calls coming up as well as we continue.
We continue now with All Things Simple Man.
That means all things Bill O'Reilly.
All things Bill O'Reilly at BillO'Reilly.com.
So what's your serious story?
All right.
The serious story is: I'm angry about Jerome Powell, the Fed chair.
I'm sure you're aware that the GDP number that came out today, the U.S. economy grew at a very healthy 3%, which is more than Biden ever had in four years, more than he ever had.
This is my take on the economy.
We have never been set.
What Donald Trump has accomplished in six months is unprecedented, and I think it's going to yield incredible results.
Let me give you the long list.
Bear with me.
I'll hand you the ball.
You run with it as long as you want.
But Donald Trump now has over $12 trillion in committed monies for manufacturing.
That's automobile manufacturing.
That's semiconductor manufacturing, pharmaceutical manufacturing, rare earth mineral manufacturing, magnet manufacturing.
I mean, we're going to be, it's going to be high-paying career jobs for so many Americans.
It's going to have such a big effect on the economy.
I'm a supply-sider.
The largest tax cut in American history.
Every time we've cut taxes, that results in more revenues to the government.
It is a fallacy that it will cut money to the federal government.
The president gave us the first trade, I'm sorry, the first surplus economically for the government in over 20 years.
The president now has opened the door for energy dominance.
He just did this deal where Europe is, the European Union is going to spend $750 billion on our energy, and that will defund Putin's war machine.
When you put that coupled with no tax on tips and overtime and Social Security into the mix, the largest tax cut in history, Bill, one of the banks yesterday came out and said, this is not a period of prosperity.
This is going to be an economic boom like we've not seen in decades.
I believe in that outcome.
What say you?
I'm more cautious than you are.
In fact, I sold off some of my speculative stocks because there's a difference between what is on paper and what's in the bank.
Now, it all could work out, and we'll know by December.
If it works out, then the Republicans will win the midterms easily across the world.
No, we'll know by November of 26.
I mean, that's when that will be the determining factor, I think, for the economy.
Peace and prosperity drive elections.
Right.
Well, we'll know if these tariff deals work by this December of this year.
Because already the money is pouring in, and that money should be used to pay down a debt, Hannity.
At least a portion of it, because it goes into the general fund in the Treasury, and they should be using that to pay down a debt because that would strengthen the dollar across the board.
There's a lot of caution here because the world is so dangerous, and bad things can happen quickly.
The key to America and to Donald Trump's economic success is getting a deal with China.
I think that's going to happen.
And you know that I was there in May.
I believe that that's going to happen.
And if that does, there'll be a surge and America will be so much stronger.
And I like the fact that Trump hammered India today because India continues to buy Putin's oil when they don't have to.
And that helps Putin murder people.
And I was happy to see Trump say, you want to do that?
We're slapping sanctions on you.
The way to start Putin is economically.
You've got to starve him now.
So I think things are heading in a positive direction.
And I hated Schumer saying that this whole thing is fake.
Did you hear that sound by it?
I think you might have used that on your TV show, didn't you?
I did.
But the only thing I would say is, Bill, we've never had committed investments to this degree.
We've never had somebody give as large a tax cut.
We've never had, we've never pushed for energy dominance.
We've never had these deals in place.
The European Union, Japan, Vietnam, Indonesia, Canada, Mexico.
And yeah, the pending China deal, they've agreed in principle, but yeah, they've got to sign the dotted line.
But all of which, you know what?
And it's resulted in five times the amount of tariff money that we've ever had.
They're thinking about cutting a check to every American right now.
I hope they don't do that.
We got to pay down that debt.
That is a key to it.
Use the money to get the debt down.
I agree with you.
I would not mind if lower and middle income Americans got some.
I wouldn't mind that at all.
But I've got to run simple man.
You know why?
I could talk to you all day.
Mr. O'Reilly, when your book comes out, you are not getting a cupcake interview.
I'm warning you ahead of time.
This is going to be the most brutal interview you've had in your career in 50 years.
So you better buckle up.
Hannity, you're going to love it.

It's one word, lonestartransfer.com.
Well, it happened with Luigi Mangioni, the guy that assassinated the United Healthcare CEO.
I mean, he became a celebrity.
He became worshipped.
Oh, please keep your letters short to me.
All these people writing him, praising him, women throwing themselves at him.
I mean, it's just nauseating that the left would celebrate the shooting of innocent people.
Well, now we have the shooting that took place in New York City, and now people on the left are celebrating the shooting of this Blackstone executive by this NYC shooter.
Take a listen.
They're the reason why there's a housing crisis.
So, hey, you know what?
Let's get more against those Blackstone people.
Let's take them out.
If you're having a bad day, I just wanted to hop on to let you know that the CEO of Blackstone, a private equity real estate firm, was one of the victims in the recent shooting.
And I'm not saying she deserved it, but I'm saying God's timing is always right.
Let's go with CEOs.
He's doing good.
Let's hope it lasts till December like it did last year.
Oh, my God, guys.
Another CEO was shot.
Another one.
We got another one.
Is it Christmas?
I mean, I don't really have words for this type of evil because it is evil.
It turns out, I'm not going to say which victim, that a very close friend of mine, his business partner's niece, was one of the victims here.
And it is so personal for them.
I mean, the entire family, when I inquired, I mean, it's a stupid question, but you ask, how are they holding up?
And it's like, how do you think they're holding up?
They're not.
They lost their loved one.
And what we're learning is, you know, you got mayoral candidate.
And I wonder if this might have an impact on this race for New York City mayor.
You know, Marxist Mamdani is facing a heavy backlash for saying, oh, I'm grateful to first responders after the deadly mass shooting, given that Mamdani had previously called to dismantle the New York Police Department.
Remember, it was Andrew Cuomo.
He wanted the no-bail laws in New York, which is like a slap in the face to all the cops that do the heavy lifting and arresting people.
But anyway, so, but Mamdani, in his particular case, you know, he had a shared desire to defund the police.
And now he say, oh, I'm harp virkin to learn here.
Now, in a post from November 7th, 2020, Comrade or Marxist Mamdani, you know, purportedly wrote, nature is healing in response to another user who exclaimed, I just saw a cop crying in his car, laughing my ass off.
Ha ha ha.
We don't need an investigation to know the NYPD is racist.
Again, this is their words, not mine, anti-queer, and a major threat to public safety.
What we need to do is hashtag defund the NYPD, the 33-year-old mayoral candidate wrote in another post that he had.
And if you flash back to Mamdani, he pledged to disband key police units, including the one to disband the New York Police Department's Strategic Response Group.
And that is one of the NYPD special operations units, which, according to their official website, they specialize in disorder response, crime suppression, crowd control, response to citywide mobilization, civil disorders, and major events with highly trained personnel and specialized equipment.
And they are the ones that are deployed to areas that require an increased police presence due to increased crime or other conditions.
And they are the group that mobilizes for shootings and bank robberies and missing persons demonstrations and significant incidents.
In December, Marxist Mamdani claimed that the NYPD had deployed this particular SRG group to harass and arrest striking Teamsters.
And he said, as mayor, I will disband this group in the NYPD.
And they have cost taxpayers millions in lawsuits and settlements and brutalized countless New Yorkers exercising their First Amendment rights.
Mamdani has been ripped for this.
He said we want to defund the police in a 2020 social media post.
He's the guy that wants social workers.
Social worker.
What is a social worker going to do if, in a situation like this, where you have an active shooter, you need somebody with a gun that's going to have the ability to save lives and take out the shooter?
It's just basic, simple common sense.
But, you know, obviously he's been busy from his over-the-top, fairly Jeff Bezos-like wedding in Uganda.
Apparently, they had a lot of security at this wedding.
Unbelievable.
All right, let's get to our busy phones here: 800-941-Sean, if you want to be a part of the program.
Let's say hi to Mary in New Jersey.
What's going on, Mary?
How are you?
All right.
I'm so sorry for your friend's loss.
Well, thank you.
It's terrible.
It's absolutely heartbreaking.
It is.
I can't believe I'm back in New Jersey.
I lived in Atlanta in Borchland for 36 years, and now I'm back in New Jersey.
I know, I tried to talk Borch maybe a year or two ago into getting back on the air.
He laughed at me.
Oh, I would love it if he got back on the air.
He was one of my very favorites.
Oh, he's in real life.
He's worse.
He's like a little child.
He thinks like a 12-year-old on some levels.
He really does.
But on other levels, he's brilliant.
Yeah, I met him at one of your freedom concerts in Atlanta.
Yeah, no, he's a great guy.
Even though at one point we were competitors, we got along great.
We really did.
Yeah, yeah.
Well, anyway, I'm calling about Jimmy Kimmel.
I don't know if you remember, well, Ben Stein, he was in, I believe, the Reagan administration.
And after he got out of politics, he had his own game show, Win Ben Stein's Money.
And Jimmy Kimmel was his sidekick on that show, and he was actually conservative.
I don't know what happened to all of these guys.
And Jay Leno nailed it and all those whining and moaning and complaining, you know, from the left.
You know, Seth Meyers is worried for his mental health of his late night show is canceled.
I've seen the ratings for this guy's show.
It's like 700,000 viewers a night.
You cannot sustain any program with that low level of viewership.
And CNN gets less than that every hour of a 24-hour day.
You remember when CNN first came on the air, when we had Desert Storm Desert Freedom, and they had a reporter in Baghdad.
They were awesome back then.
And they, like Jimmy Kimmel, have all had brain transplants, I think.
I don't know what happened.
Let me give you another example.
Let me play, and I appreciate the call.
Thank you for joining us.
Let me play Stephen Colbert, and this is him with Donald Trump as his guest, thanking Donald Trump for running for president and talking about how great Donald Trump is.
How did he evolve from this into what he's now become, you know, a virulent anti-Trump hater?
Thank you so much for being here.
Thank you.
Speaking of doing a fantastic job, you are setting the world on fire right now.
We're having a lot of fun, and I think we're hitting some pretty good issues, Stephen.
I want to thank you not only for being here, I want to thank you for running for president.
I'm not going to say I'm not going to say this stuff rights itself.
New Hampshire and Iowa, no matter where we go, it seems that the response just gets better and better.
And the polls have been phenomenal.
Zogby was great.
33% that came out today, right?
33%.
Incredible.
I'm not surprised at all.
I'll tell you why.
It's because.
I'm liking him a lot.
I'm liking you too.
I'm liking you too.
I'm not surprised at all because especially in the Republican field, have a country.
We have to create, number one, we're going to build a wall.
Number two, we're going to.
Okay.
Oh, listen to this even with your crowd.
I hear you.
No, they love the wall.
They love the wall.
People love the wall.
Well, Donald Trump, thank you so much for being here.
Donald Trump is the leader for the Republican nomination.
We'll be right back.
Thank you so much, Donald.
Thank you so much.
Donald Trump, everybody.
Well, he went hardcore left and hardcore Trump derangement syndrome and he lost his audience.
They lost money and now he's canceled.
It's that simple.
Quick break.
Right back to our busy phones.
Our toll-free telephone numbers: 800-941-Sean, if you want to join us.
Hey, what's on your mind today?
Information download.
Hannity and the breaking news you might have missed today with Sean's Insider Information.
Sean Hannity.
Phones 800-941-SEAN if you want to join us.
Julius is in New Jersey.
Hey, Julius, how are you?
Glad you called.
Yeah, I just want to make this clear.
Everything you said about Mom Dani is just utter crap, Sean.
Let's be honest here.
Utter crap.
Tell me one thing that I said about Mom Dani that's not true in terms of what he himself has said.
No, no, no, no, no, no.
Let's go into this whole thing.
No, no, no, no, no, no, no.
Tell me one thing that I said that is utter crap.
Yeah.
Did I say one thing about Mom Dani that is false?
No.
The answer is no.
I can save you time.
But if you can think of something, go ahead.
The cops that you've called, with the riots police, they do start the sh they do start the problems.
There's videos out on YouTube that have been caught where they are the ones who start the riot.
And so Mom Donnie is correct about that.
And as for the defund the police, I don't personally like the name of it, but the idea that he.
I'm not saying every cop is perfect, but I would say generally speaking, 99 percent of them are not out there to start start fights with people and they put their lives in harm's way to protect people.
And this guy has been, I mean, do you support dismantling the police department?
Do you support no bail laws?
You know what?
When it comes to low-level crimes, like smoke, like having a joint.
I didn't ask about low-level crimes.
We have videos of people beating the hell out of officers and innocent civilians in Times Square, and they're let out on the street because of New York's idiotic no-bail laws.
Do you support it or not?
And stop being a jackass.
Is that after the cops beat the crap out of someone?
No, the people that were getting the crap beat out of them were the cops and innocent civilians.
If you go and watch the video, you can see it.
But because of the asinine no-bail laws that clearly you support, they were let out within hours, and then they flipped the bird to the media before they left for another sanctuary state.
I've seen the videos, so don't try to.
And you're okay, and you're okay with that.
Beating up cops is okay with you.
If a cop starts, yeah, if a cop starts problems, then guess what?
You're not above the law.
All right, should we defund the police completely?
Let's see.
No, how about this?
Why don't we redirect the money to things that could actually be more helpful?
First of all, okay, so redirect means defund because they won't have money to pay cops.
So no cops.
Do you support no bail laws?
Can I finish or are you going to just talk over me and put words in my mind?
No, I'm trying to get to the bottom of what you're saying here.
So you want to defund the police.
You want no bail laws.
No.
Anything else that any other genius, liberal, idiotic idea you have rolling around in that sick, twisted mind of yours?
No, the sick, twisted mind is yours, okay?
Now don't talk over me, okay?
My show, if I want to ask you questions, I'll ask them and you can't stop me.
Don't lie about what I'm saying.
Do you support yes or no?
Defunding the police?
Simple question.
Defunding in how much?
Totally?
No.
What percentage should be cut?
What percentage?
50%?
Right now, New York at its height had 41,000 cops, so they have 31,000.
How many cops should New York City have, for example?
I don't know, Sean, because guess what?
I'm not the one in charge of the paperwork.
So I don't know what I'm going to go for.
I'm not in charge of.
Well, maybe then you shouldn't make all these statements if you don't know anything about it.
You didn't know there were 31,000 cops when we used to have 41,000 cops.
And let me ask you, do you support replacing police with social workers?
Do you support that?
That's what Bomdani wants, your buddy.
Yeah, when it comes to dealing with people with mental issues, yeah, because you know how many times cops have murdered people?
Murdered people.
Yeah.
You want to go, oh, of course, and play stupid.
Yeah, let's play stupid on this.
Not saying every cop is perfect.
You do have bad apples, but that's not the majority of them.
You just seem to hate the police.
Let me ask you a question.
Do you violate laws?
Do you deal drugs?
Do you break the law?
Holy crap.
You just love to go there with that.
You know, here's the thing.
You're a very angry young man.
How old are you?
You're an angry man.
I'm 50 years old.
I was in the military, so I don't take crap from anyone.
Well, I appreciate your service, but I will say this.
You're a very angry person that has lost every bit of common sense you might have been born with when you had it.
Because social workers can't deal with the mentally ill in a situation where they're threatening people with violence.
Can't happen, won't work.
Defund won't work.
Dismantle won't work.
And no bail laws are asinine.
If you want to support asinine, you go right ahead.
Have a good day.
Appreciate you being with us.
