right, Leonard Skinner, simple man, that can only mean one thing on this radio program, and that is all things self-proclaimed simple man.
That means all things, Bill O'Reilly, all things Bill O'Reilly, or at billo'reilly.com.
So I am looking at Tim Cook is about to join the president of the White House for this big announcement, this Apple investment, $100 billion in commitments by the tech giant.
This is on top of $500 billion.
I mean, the amount of money Apple is going to spend.
So that's $600 billion total in the next four years.
But if you add up between car companies, automobile manufacturers and pharmaceutical companies and semiconductor chip companies and rare earth mineral development and new mines that are going to be making us independent in that area.
And then you factor in the largest tax cuts in history, helping working men and women the way we grew up.
If you saw the Billy Joel documentary on HBO Max, kind of like the way we grew up, it's, I want to see working men and women get some tax relief.
And then you add the energy factor, which is all the policies in place now to become energy dominant, coupled with the European Union deal, which is, you know, $750 billion in commitments to buy American energy.
Bill O'Reilly, you don't have to be, you don't have to be go to MIT and study economics and get a PhD to understand this is going to be a great opportunity for American workers, and it's going to literally change our economy.
And we're going to go back to being in a manufacturing center and more independent.
I love every aspect of it, but what say you?
Well, it's a short-term versus long-term.
So there's no doubt that Donald Trump wanted to change the economic profile of America and has done so.
All of these things that are happening are positive, but they're theoretical.
American workers are still in a painful circumstance.
And you know why?
Because there are a lot of hidden costs that come in, like insurance and health care and medicine, which are really gutting take-home pay and savings.
And yes, all of this is very positive for the future, but the future is about 18 months for the midterms.
So some of this has to then turn into relief for the majority of voters in America.
And that has to happen by early 2026, I think.
You see, I don't agree with a lot of criticism of some conservatives of the One Big Beautiful bill.
Well, number one, I believe there's going to be a follow-up.
I believe there are going to be more cuts.
No president has put in place as many cuts as President Trump has already.
And I think there's going to be many more to follow.
But if you look at the Reagan model, he dropped the top marginal rates from 70 to 28 percent.
And we doubled revenues to the government, but Congress spent $1.25 for every new dollar they brought in.
My issue is as I look at the economy and I look at the amount of money that's being spent, the one big beautiful bill had in it what's called for manufacturers, bonus depreciation.
You understand this.
Maybe some people don't.
Bonus depreciation means you get to write off 100% of your investment in manufacturing on year one, which will incentivize them to move because they get to write all that off, all the construction costs, all the manufacturing costs.
That is a huge incentive for any business.
So I think that's going to accelerate it.
That will help the midterms.
Okay.
And you might be right.
But it's still nebulous word of the day whether relief is going to come.
Remember, killing Reagan for two years, Reagan did not prosper economically and his poll numbers were very low.
And then it all kicked in.
So this is almost a race against the clock for Donald Trump to get this stuff right into the living rooms of the American people.
And I just don't know whether that will happen or not.
Nobody can say with 100% certainty.
However, when you look at anywhere between $12 and $15 trillion in committed investments, which is what the number is now, in manufacturing, and then you couple in, which I think has been overlooked and ignored by far too many people, the idea that manufacturing facilities can literally, because of bonus depreciation, write off 100% of their invested money in year one.
That is going to be the accelerant word of the day that will jumpstart and move this process forward that much more quickly.
Now, two things, differences with Reagan.
Reagan, remember, he didn't get his bill passed anywhere near as quickly as Donald Trump did.
He didn't get his economic plan in place till about a year and a half into his presidency.
And he was dealt a horrible hand on the economy, just like President Trump was.
So the idea that the president has a year and a half head start and is putting this accelerant or this incentive out there for companies to move, I think is going to be, I think it has all the potential to be very, very explosive.
I can't guarantee it, though.
I'm not going to sit there and overpromise.
The potential is there.
A couple of things can really jack it up, and that's a deal with China.
And as you know, I'm deeply involved with that.
And if that comes about, that will be a real stimulator for everybody in the world, not just the United States.
But you know this.
We already have a deal in principle with China.
Yeah, but you know, you need a deal that involves Putin.
You need a deal that involves energy transfers from the USA to China.
You need a lot of definition about how much Chinese were going to take, how many goods we're going to take.
All that can be worked out.
And I expect that President Trump will go to Beijing.
Maybe that won't happen.
I can't guarantee it, but I expect it will.
I think it's going to happen.
My sources tell me that's very likely to happen.
And me too.
So that would be a game changer.
And the other advantage that Donald Trump has is that the Democratic Party has nothing.
You know what they have?
Mamdani.
He's your buddy.
You're the one that clings to New York like it's manna from heaven, not me.
No, but it's a national story because this is what you got.
This is what you want.
Today is the anniversary, 65 years, I believe, of Fidel Castro seizing all private property in Cuba when he said that he wouldn't.
All right, now, if you go to Cuba, as I've been, it's the second worst economy in the Western Hemisphere next to Haiti, which is totally out of control.
You mean Michael Moore lied to us when he said they had the best health care system he's ever seen?
Who's that?
Michael Moore?
Oh, come on, he's a moron.
Look, what I'm trying to say is that even if it doesn't come 100% for Donald Trump, as far as economics is concerned, to pull a lever for the other party, I mean, you really have to be, I don't know what the word is.
I mean, look at Boston, my second home, totally falling apart because drug-addicted people are overrunning the city.
I mean, how much more do we have to have of this far-left progressive governance that fails on everything?
And you think that they're going to resurrect the economy?
You think that Senator Schumer's got a formula for putting money in Americans' pockets?
Come on.
I don't think Senator Schumer has the courage to say a single thing in this day and age because he's only the minority leader in name only, as Hakeem Jeffries is, and the Mamdanis and the Pocahontases and the Grandpa Bernie's and the AOCs and the Jasmine Crocketts and the squad.
That represents the Democratic Party today.
You know, you see this now emerging.
You see it in Minnesota.
You see it in your.
I know you spend time in Boston.
You're very fond of Boston.
I'm not.
It used to be a once-great city.
It's not anymore.
Listen, you just hit it right on the head, Hannity.
The face of the Democratic Party is radical left.
And that's why this Mamdani thing is getting traction.
Because if you're going to elect communists, which is what he is, and I don't say that as McCarthy or Goldwater or any of these people.
I'm not.
The man is a communist.
He would seize private property just as Castro did to give it to people he wants to give it to based on God knows what.
But when that is the overwhelming profile of Trump's opposition, that gives him an enormous advantage, even if all of the economic stuff doesn't kick in on time.
Agreed.
I believe the odds are high that it will.
I can't say for sure.
Quick break, right back.
We'll continue more with all things simple man Bill O'Reilly, all things O'Reilly at billo'reilly.com.
At the bottom of the half hour, we expect the president and Tim Cook to have a joint press conference.
Apple is investing $600 billion in America.
That's part of the $12 to $15 trillion that is going to be spent on manufacturing in America.
That includes not only phones, but semiconductor chips.
That includes pharmaceuticals, rare earths, things that we have been far too dependent on other countries for.
And automobile manufacturing will carry that coming up next and much more straight ahead as we continue.
Chucky Schumer is sure upset because we want to see where the money went.
Where's the money?
Maybe we should start with him.
How about it, Chucky?
Where is the dough?
Sean Hennedy.
If you're sending your child off to college this fall, make sure you give them more than a backpack and a laptop.
You need to give them peace of mind.

All right, we continue now with all things simple man Bill O'Reilly, allthingsoilly at billo'reilly.com.
Let me get your take.
You have Hakeem Jeffries, Chucky Schumer, Kathy Hochl.
They all refuse to condemn Mom Donnie.
We know the guy wouldn't even condemn a call for global antifada.
He wants to seize the means of production.
The guy is as he wants government-run grocery stores, cradle to grave, womb to the tomb, billionaires shouldn't exist.
He wants to tax the wider neighborhoods more.
I mean, how much more do I need to bring up?
Why won't they condemn him?
Because their money men are far-left progressives, the people who fund Schumer's campaign.
And Schumer's got to watch Cortez is probably going to primary him.
So he can't become a modern.
Remember when Schumer voted for the Trump?
It escapes me in a moment, but Tromer, no, what was it?
The big bill?
No, he voted against that.
Schumer did something to help Trump.
Continuing resolution, which, by the way, he's never favored a government shutdown his entire career.
It was consistent with where he's been his entire career, and he got excoriated for it.
Very good, Hannity.
Very good.
Anyway, Schumer knows he can't go against the radical left because he'll lose to, I think he's going to retire anyway.
I don't think Chucky's going to even give it a go because the numbers, he's so underwater and so unpopular in New York State at this point.
Let me ask this question.
With your state now, I mean, yours is the state of AOC.
Yours is the state of Kathy Hochle, Mom Donnie, even Schumer, Hakeem Jeffries.
Why do you stay there, Bill?
Why?
Well, I got deep personal and business interests here that I have to for the time being.
But there's a line.
A wealth tax would be the line.
You know, if you die in New York State, the government is going to try to come in and take every single thing you have.
And you have to try to prevent that.
There are laws that you can use to do that.
But, you know, at this point, it's a decision made upon personal things.
I got two urchins.
They are here.
One of them is going to D.C.
I got to supervise that whole thing.
And I got three corporations.
I'm running out of here.
Bill, you can run the corporations out of anywhere.
That's not an excuse.
And if you want to visit your kids, because they're older, like mine are.
Mine live in the free state of Florida, not far from me.
However, it's called an airplane bill.
You can get on an airplane.
All right, Annie.
All I'm saying to you is that I think there may be a backlash in this state.
I think the state may be at that crossroads.
Now, California didn't learn its lesson, and it's never coming back.
And I don't think Massachusetts is either.
But there's still a little bit of hope for New York.
There's zero.
The Grim Reaper.
Not Grim.
I mean, Mondani wins.
It's going to be great for my state of Florida.
Do you know why I don't want it to happen?
Because I have friends like you that live there.
I don't want, even though it would be good for me and my fellow Floridians for that state to continue to collapse, I don't want it for the people that have chosen, for whatever reason, to remain.
I don't want that for them.
Anyway, Bill O'Reilly, we appreciate you.
All things simple man, Bill O'Reilly at BillO'Riley.com.
All right, so we're awaiting what happens in the Oval Office.
We'll get to some of your calls here in a minute.
800-941-Sean, if you want to be a part of the program, we're always interested in what you have to say.
Evidence in the ObamaGate Russia hoax scandal will likely be presented to a grand jury in Florida.
Even Newsweek is reporting this.
The Department of Justice's federal grand jury case to investigate Obama and the administration over their 2016 assessment of Russian election interference could take place in Florida, which would likely provide a more favorable legal environment for the DOJ.
That actually means a fair environment, not a biased or abusively biased environment like they had for Donald Trump in New York.
Anyway, speculation is that Florida would be a possible trial location.
New York Times reporting as of yesterday, the prosecutors would present the case to a grand jury in South Florida.
Wouldn't it be great if I was on the grand jury or on a jury?
It would be amazing.
I don't think they'd ever pick me.
No, you could get picked.
You should go in as Sean Patrick Hannity.
So it kind of throws them off and like, you know, wear like a baseball cap and sunglasses and answer all the questions exactly the way they were.
Sean Patrick Hannity and me wearing a baseball cat, a cap and sunglasses, and you think that's going to do it.
I think it would take a little bit longer for people to catch on to the fact that it was you.
And I think that it would be great.
And I think that they would have to say, hang on a second.
You look a lot and sound a lot like that guy, Hannity.
And you would say, oh, I have a bone to pick with you.
I don't want to talk about this because this is ridiculous.
How could you ever have a bone to pick up?
I'll pick you a white dudes for Harris hat.
Yes.
A white dudes for Harris hat.
Excellent, excellent idea.
And you don't think after 30 years of being on television that I'm recognizable?
You know, you always explain.
I'm explaining you're taller and thinner in real life.
So, I mean, you know.
Well, I am.
I mean, that's what people tell me all the time.
Oh, you look younger in person.
Oh, you look taller in person.
Oh, you're skinnier in person.
Oh, I'm like, you know, fat, old, and short on TV.
So you could just be like, yeah, that's my older brother.
I'm Pat.
How are you?
I want to serve on this story.
I want to do my civic duty.
And don't think I didn't notice you snuck it in once today.
You now brought Scott Shannon into the conspiracy.
He's a fat man.
Amazing human.
Okay.
Brought him into the conspiracy that somehow that I'm thinking about a White House run.
Let's play this.
Hey, you know, there's a big rumor going around that Sean Hannity may be running for president.
Now, tell me, how many people think that's a great idea?
Oh, boy.
Stay tuned for more details.
Right here on the Hannity Show.
See, there you go.
Crickets.
Nobody thinks it's a good idea.
First of all, this is all Linda contrived.
This is fine.
No, that is not fake news.
You're the one that brought this up on this program.
I merely just regurgitated that which I read on social media.
You know, X is a powerful medium.
You have 7 million followers, and they, you know, they let their voices be heard.
I merely was the messenger of said voice.
That's all.
Okay, don't believe everything that you read on the screen.
Now, I am guilty.
I am guilty of going to Scott Shannon and saying, sir, I would like you to make me a few stagers and liners.
I will write them.
They're going to be fantastic.
Please take Artistic Liberty, which he did, and they're fantastic.
Oh, there are other ones?
Oh, yeah.
We're mixing them in all day.
Let's hear another one.
Let me hear it number one.
How does this sound?
Sean Hannity for president.
Stay tuned.
More details are coming up.
Why are you making Scott Shannon work this hard?
Why are you doing that?
Hannity for president.
Is that true?
What?
Just imagine the guy with the most radio stations now getting the biggest microphone in America.
President Hannity.
Will he really do it?
Stay tuned.
We'll find out.
I don't know.
No, that's my first three.
That's it.
So we got three from you conspired with Scott Shannon behind my back to do this.
And meanwhile, this is a Linda-contrived, invented story that is based on taking the time to do this.
Do I have the time to make up?
Did you or did you not conspire with Scott Shannon?
I did do that.
You did so conspire with him.
You absolutely conspired with him.
Again, I'm an honest person.
I'm forthcoming.
I did do that, but I did not.
I did not start the Hannity for president rumor.
That's not true.
That happened online.
People were talking.
I know.
Well, I can tell you what my platform would be, even though I am not a part of this.
Well, the most important decision on the other side.
There's nothing that would make me happier than to stay behind this microphone and before that TV camera for as long as God will let me.
There you go.
But if you were to run for president, you and your vice president, McLaughlin, would do an amazing job of running this country and setting up.
I could not pick you as a vice president.
As a matter of fact, you would not even be allowed to be in the Oval Office or be around me if you were vice president because I would be poisoned and I'd be a dead president within three months.
No, six months.
I told you.
I'll give you a full six months.
It'll be fantastic.
And then you'll kill me.
And then you'll poison my food.
That's right.
But it'll be a quick poisoning.
Like, I'll do, you know, I'll do something powerful.
Don't worry.
I'll make sure to consult Fauci.
He's got lots of great ideas.
800.
By the way, everybody's getting freaked out by this new virus out of China.
No one is freaked out.
No one.
That is fake news.
It is complete and utter nonsense.
No one is freaked out.
I'm more freaked out about the USDA labels on my meat, to be honest with you.
I'm just telling you what I'm reading.
The global outbreak fears are now surging.
This is a headline because of this virus in China.
And apparently it's spread by mosquitoes.
Nobody has died.
There's more than 7,000 infections reported.
It's in a southern city of Fushan in the Guangdong province, prompting authorities to isolate patients in hospital wards covered with mosquito nets.
They are required to remain there for a week or at least until they test negative, if not sooner.
No deaths have been reported, but that doesn't mean the Chinese aren't lying to us.
Oh my God, the CCP lying to us about bioengineering, some medical biochemical weapon.
I want to know if we paid for this too.
Of course we did.
I'm sure we probably did.
You know, they have the Wuhan Virology Lab.
Maybe they have the, hang on.
What's the name of the county?
EcoHealth Alliance.
It's Foshan.
Foshan.
Guangdong Province.
Foshan.
It kind of rhymes with Faoci.
The Guangdong Mosquito, you know, gain of function lab in China.
Let's go to Mike in Pennsylvania.
Hey, Mike, how are you?
Great, Sean.
How are you doing?
I'm good.
What's going on?
So I guess one of my biggest questions is as the Democrats have continued to escalate, and it's been going on for years now.
I don't know if you can really call it escalation anymore, but everybody is a Nazi.
Everything is Hitler, the next Hitler.
There's nowhere to go from there.
I mean, when somebody actually does come out and is that radical or that, you know, evil, what are they going to have to say then?
There's nowhere to go from that position.
It has now become their go-to phrase that they've added to racist, sexist, misogynist, homophobic, xenophobic, Islamophobic, transphobic.
Republicans want dirty air and water, and they want to kill old people.
Now it's racist, fascist, Nazi, Hitler, Stalin, Mussolini, Mussolini.
That's their go-to.
And you're right.
It's like the boy that cried wolf.
It loses any impact.
And the idea that everything's compared to Nazi Germany to me is offensive.
You know, every day, oh, these are concentration camps.
These are internment camps.
No, they're actually prisons that are holding prisoners at Alligator Alcatraz, for example.
And now they're being deported to their home country.
But this is all they've got.
All right.
Let's go to John in Maryland.
John, how are you?
Glad you called.
Good, sir.
How are you?
I'm good.
What's going on?
Well, I have a suggestion for Linda if she can get Scott involved with this.
I think a good ticket would be you as president, Stephen Ace.
Oh, good grief.
Why am I allowing people to do this?
I'm not running for president.
Why not?
All right, go ahead, John.
I didn't mean to interrupt.
No, sir, that was it.
That's all.
Love your show.
Just hang on.
Then what position does Linda get?
Because that's all she cares about in this whole discussion is hard.
That's correct.
You might dodge an assassination attack.
I don't know.
Dude, give me your role, man.
Come on.
I'm telling you, press it, man.
Jeez.
Press secretary with the over-under against you that you would not even, you would beat Scaramucci's record of being.
That is fake news.
I talk to people all day long and I crush them.
I am an excellent debater, a wonderful arguer.
I am down for it.
I love confrontation.
Back to our busy phones, John.
We appreciate you.
Man, oh, man.
Amy in Kentucky, what's up, Amy?
How are you?
Hey, Sean.
Thank you so much for shaking my call.
I just wanted to express my thoughts and prayers for the people in Fort Stewart.
I know they're a close-knit community.
My husband and I just moved there a year from there, a year ago.
We served there for three years.
They are a heavy-deployed unit.
They train hard.
So, I mean, it's kind of shocking that this would happen there, but my thoughts and prayers are there since we were just in that community, and I know it pretty well.
Well, we share your thoughts and your prayers.
And if there's any good news out of today, it doesn't seem like anyone was severely injured.
Nobody's dead.
And the person responsible has been captured.
If we have any more updates, we'll bring it to you.
Amy, you have a good heart, I can tell.
Let us go to, let me see here, Steve in the United Socialist Utopia of Gavin Newsom out in California.
Hi.
Hi, Sean.
How are you today?
I'm good, sir.
What's on your mind?
I got a bunch of stuff, but you're screened.
Shout out to Linda, by the way.
And if you ever want to take the vacation, you need someone to sit in for you.
I'll take the job.
I occasionally mostly listen to you online because I'm in the car and your radio show.
Really missed your show with Alan Combs.
May God rest in peace.
He was a good man.
There's no doubt about it.
I love that show.
I love the count pointer count, and that's how I get my information.
Real quick, though, I listened to your discussion with Bill O'Reilly about Sempi Man Mandami, and you are always mentioning Defund the Police and public grocery stores and all of that stuff.
And I wish at the same time you would also talk to your viewers about his anti-Semitism views.
Oh, I've talked about it many times.
And his refusal to condemn the call for global antifada, which is holy war against Jewish people.
We talk about it all the time.
We also talk about how Democrats won't condemn him.
