00:01:10.000He's done an amazing job building one of the most powerful youth organizations ever created, Turning Point USA.
00:01:16.000We will not embrace the ideas that have destroyed countries, destroyed lives, and we are going to fight for freedom on campuses across the country.
00:01:28.000Brought to you by Andrew and Todd at Sierra Pacific Mortgage.

00:01:33.000Go to andrewandtodd.com, the wonderfulandrewandtodd.com.
00:01:40.000With us right now is the legend Bill O'Reilly.
00:01:44.000He has a new book out that is very exciting that I want you all to go pick up a copy of, Killing the Killers, The Secret War Against Terrorists.
00:02:33.000And what we were able to do, Charlie, is to talk to a number of national security advisors, beginning with David Petraeus in the Bush administration, all the way up to the end of the Trump administration, about how the bin Laden raid went down, al-Baghdadi got assassinated, Solamani got killed, Boko Haram, firefights in Africa with special forces, all of things that Americans really don't know about.
00:03:00.000And so we begin with the bin Laden raid.
00:03:03.000Everybody thinks they know what happened.
00:04:01.000And the weapons that we have, Chinese don't have, Putin doesn't have, and they are so destructive and so amazing that every terrorist on the face of the earth knows that their life could be snuffed like that if one of these drones zeroes in on them.
00:04:17.000And our villains in space can read the name of a golf ball, Charlie, three miles up.
00:04:24.000So if you've got a golf ball, Fairway says titleist, they can read it from three miles away.
00:04:30.000That's how incredible our infrastructure is.
00:04:54.000There's a lot of anxiety from Americans that our military is no longer the best in the world, that China or Russia, and I don't think Russia really should be taken seriously in comparison to ours.
00:05:06.000But let's say China could very well surpass the United States military might.
00:05:10.000In writing this book, what's your thought on that?
00:05:12.000Is that something that you went into some detail with of are we still the greatest military in the world?
00:05:17.000How do other nations, especially some of our enemies, compare?
00:05:20.000We have the best trained military in the world, the best army military in the world.
00:05:24.000And we know the numbers these have, but you don't really need that anymore with the high-tech weaponry.
00:05:29.000Our special forces are, when you read Killing the Killers, Charlie, I mean, you're going to be amazed at how effective and disciplined they are, how brave they are.
00:05:38.000So when you get into politics and there are no politics in Killing the Killers, I just lay it on out there.
00:05:45.000What Bush did, what did what Trump did, and then the debacle in Afghanistan under Biden.
00:05:51.000But when you see overall what the picture is, is that the professionals in the CIA and NASA, National Security Agency, they're still there.
00:06:00.000So the same people under Trump are now still working under Biden.
00:06:05.000Those people, credible in distilling information and protecting Americans overseas.
00:06:11.000The problem comes inside America with the insane open border Paul Biden administration has implemented.
00:06:19.000We know that overseas terrorists have infiltrated that border and are here looking to kill Americans because that's what ISIS and Al-Qaeda are in business to do, kill infidels.
00:06:45.000As far as the generals in the Pentagon and what they do and don't do, you know, more political players, they're going to take the orders that they're given.
00:06:55.000And right now, the orders really haven't changed.
00:06:58.000So, Bill, I want to shift gears for a second here.
00:07:00.000One thing I always love about your programs, especially when I was growing up watching the O'Reilly factories, is straight to the point, you know, no spin, no BS.
00:07:07.000I want your opinion, because there's some disagreement in conservative circles, especially about whether Joe Biden is doing all this intentionally, or is this just a bunch of blunders and incompetence?
00:07:19.000I mean, we see inflation, we see gas prices, we see the border wide open.
00:07:24.000I don't think Biden has the capacity to absorb information based upon my observation of him and knowledge of him throughout his life and in comparison to other presidents.
00:07:35.000I don't buy into the conspiracy that there's some kind of seat plan to destroy CAP League in America around the world.
00:07:42.000I don't think there is any evidence to demonstrate that.
00:07:47.000It is not beyond belief that it, but the evidence says Joe Biden simply cannot run The country.
00:07:59.000It would be like you, Charlie, starting for the Rams in September at quarterback.
00:08:04.000Now, you may be a pretty good athlete, Charlie, but you are not going to lead the Rams to the Super Bowl.
00:10:03.000I'm Rebecca Hatfield, president of SecondVote.
00:10:05.000We've had uniquely American common sense since 1776, but now we're in the age of common nonsense.
00:10:12.000Today's nonsense comes in the form of calls for gun control.
00:10:15.000What happened in Uvalde was an unimaginable tragedy.
00:10:18.000And we know how the left never lets a tragedy go to waste.
00:10:21.000They want to strip you of your Second Amendment rights.
00:10:24.000But this isn't just an attack on your rights.
00:10:26.000It's part of a bigger assault on the American family.
00:10:29.000When the left attacks your rights to keep and bear arms, they're attacking your right to defend your family.
00:10:35.000And while the woke companies say they care about children, they're giving the hard-earned dollars you spend with them to the abortion industry.
00:10:42.000Companies like Dick Sporting Goods and Target call for gun control in the name of protecting children, but then immediately donate to Planned Parenthood.
00:10:49.000Pizza Hut markets itself as a family-friendly restaurant, but then spreads gender confusion to third graders through book programs about drag kids.
00:10:57.000And the Disney Corporation makes children's entertainment while fighting against laws designed to protect children from being taught about sex.
00:11:04.000The left loves to use the phrase, enough is enough, when they want to pass laws and grow big government.
00:11:10.000But it's conservatives who've really had enough of their nonsense.
00:11:14.000At Second Vote, we do the research to expose big corporation politics by scoring hundreds of companies on traditional American values.
00:11:22.000And we want you to use Second Vote research to make better choices with your money.
00:11:26.000So please make sure you arm yourselves every day with the knowledge you need to shop smart and stop funding the left.
00:11:32.000All the research you need is available at secondvote.com.
00:11:35.000I'm Rebecca Hatfield, president of SecondVote, reminding you that your first vote is at the ballot box, but your second vote is with your wallet.
00:11:42.000Make sure you go to secondvote.com and subscribe now using promo code Charlie for just $40 for a whole year.
00:12:08.000And if so, do you think that he might be able to have some sort of path through the nomination and potentially the future of the Republican Party?
00:12:15.000Okay, I'm not a party guy, Charlie, but obviously I followed as a journalist.
00:12:19.000And I think Donald Trump has got the big advantage right now as it stands.
00:12:25.000Got about 50% of the Republican Party supporting him.
00:12:30.000He's raised more than a million dollars on his way to 200 million, colossal amount of money.
00:12:36.000He managed the economy in a very effective way.
00:12:40.000That's a key because Americans are going to get angrier over the next couple of years as we get hurt and people see their livelihoods here because of the incompetent Democrats.
00:12:53.000So Trump ran the economy very, very well.
00:12:56.000Even if you hate him, it's hard to dispute that.
00:14:13.000And so if you were to kind of look at the country as a whole, not political and just between Republican or Democrats, what are the issues that you think aren't getting enough focus or enough airtime?
00:14:24.000This is something that, quite honestly, I really miss because you used to zero in on these micro issues, whether it be corruption of judges or prosecutors that aren't putting forth cases or some micro trends that end up being macro trends.
00:14:36.000What are you seeing in the news that you think isn't getting enough airtime in the mainstream media right now?
00:14:41.000Well, first of all, Charlie, if you go to the no sues on billorilly.com, you'll get exactly what you got on the O'Reilly factor and more because we don't have all the commercials and all of that.
00:14:52.000So right now, violent and the controversy over peaceful Americans arming themselves is not being reported accurately.
00:15:04.000Saloons that run into schools and mow down about 2.3% of all homicides in America.
00:15:10.000The real maniacs are the drug gangs who are heavily armed.
00:15:18.000All the gun legislation is not going to affect that.
00:15:22.000I mean, they don't buy their guns legally anyway.
00:15:24.000And they generate all the gun deaths in America, generate more than 90% of them.
00:15:31.000So that story is totally uncovered in a way that gives the American people a fact.
00:15:38.000There is only one thing that could stop drug and gang and gun violence in America, and that is federalize all drying crops.
00:15:49.000No longer, if you walk in Tennessee with a gun, would the state of Tennessee prosecute you?
00:15:58.000And if you're convicted of a gun crime and that includes illegal possession, you get a five-year band in a federal penitentiary.
00:16:07.000So, what that does is it protects law-abiding gun owners from the intrusion loons who want to ban guns altogether because they don't respect your right to protect yourself.
00:16:20.000And then the government's resources are focused with where they should be on the people that are doing gun crimes, the hardcore criminals.
00:16:28.000The ignoring of violent crime, I totally agree with you, is the great story in America right now that the media is just totally glossing over.
00:16:36.000Yeah, there's thousands of people who are victims of that.
00:16:38.000If you're robbed, I mean, you never forget that.
00:16:40.000I mean, and that's an assault on your dignity, and the government doesn't care.
00:16:44.000Places like San Francisco and LA, New York, Philadelphia, Chicago, you can steal a car and nothing's going to happen to you.
00:17:33.000And this month, for every cash deal above $20,000, you've got an incredible three-ounce Silver American Virtue Coin completely free as a thank you.
00:19:56.000They want you to be dependent on electric charging vehicle stations.
00:20:00.000They want you to be dependent on a fossil fuel future.
00:20:07.000Fossil fuels and the ability to go from one place to the other, the ability to energize your economy.
00:20:11.000Energy is fundamental to a civilization.
00:20:14.000Only in a country where you have grown used to the ability to grow, to go places quickly, are you able to focus on ideas that are so silly and so unrealistic as this?
00:21:18.000Instead of looking introspectively, they're doing this to Myra Flores in Texas.
00:21:24.000Myra Flores, they're calling a QAnon conspiracy theorist.
00:21:28.000We predicted it live on air, and within hours, the articles have come out.
00:21:33.000They believe they are losing the Latino and the Hispanic community, not because of inflation, gas prices, pregnant men, and all this other stuff.
00:21:41.000They believe that they are losing Hispanics, that they think Hispanics are so stupid that they're not able to understand the news correctly because of disinformation.
00:21:52.000I'm building up to an extraordinary piece of tape here.
00:21:56.000We're going to get there in a second, but I want to play all this other tape to kind of set the table.
00:22:32.000As we are, as we've talked about, there's war happening right now in Ukraine that was caused by Russia, which is why we're seeing these hikes in gas prices.
00:22:44.000But what I will say is that we are calling on them to do the right thing, to be patriots here, and not to use the war as an excuse.
00:23:14.000What you're saying is that your poll numbers have gone down so dramatically, it's your patriotic duty to please bail us out of a 33% approval rating.
00:23:48.000CNN asks some very good follow-up questions.
00:23:51.000And so you have the activist, Jennifer Granholm, who is a two-minute clip, so it's a little bit longer than we usually play, and they go back and forth.
00:23:59.000And she basically is begging, demanding, or threatening all at once, oil companies to start pumping up more oil.
00:24:07.000But CNN asks a phenomenally brilliant question.
00:24:11.000I can't believe I'm saying this, but they say, wait a second, why would these oil companies go drill more if you want to have them abolished in five years from now?
00:24:19.000Why would they go employ a bunch of people, go set up a bunch of infrastructure to potentially now be obliterated down the road?
00:24:28.000And this is such an important point that CNN stumbled into, maybe to get ratings or whatever.
00:24:34.000But the point that CNN is making here is exactly why oil companies are not sprinting to go drill more right now.
00:24:42.000If you tell an industry they're polluters, they're evil capitalists, and that they're going to be shut down, regulated, and taxed into oblivion, why would they then go make massive investments to go do more of that activity?
00:24:57.000Oil companies are doing just fine right now.
00:24:59.000High price of oil, they're just going to sit on their hands, be like, why would we go drill more?
00:25:03.000Now, if they felt confident the administration was going to have long-term backing of their industry, then yes, they would drill more and the price of oil would go down.
00:25:12.000Listen to this extraordinary couple-minute exchange between Granholm and CNN, play cut $114.
00:25:34.000We're asking them to be in this era where we're on a war footing to consider increasing supply, both dual and, of course, internationally.
00:25:42.000Five years from now, 10 years from now, are you telling me you want them drilling for more oil?
00:25:49.000You want the refineries putting out more gasoline in five or ten years?
00:25:54.000What we're saying is today we need that supply increased.
00:25:57.000Of course, in five or ten years, actually, in the immediate, we are also pressing on the accelerator, if you will, to move toward clean energy so that we don't have to be under the thumb of petro dictators like Putin or at the whim of the volatility of fossil fuels.
00:26:12.000Ultimately, America will be most secure when we can rely upon our own clean domestic production of energy.
00:26:19.000And that's the problem for these companies.
00:26:21.000These companies are saying, you know, you're asking me to do more now, invest more now, when in fact, five or ten years from now, we don't think that demand will be there and the administration doesn't even necessarily want it to be there.
00:26:33.000Just one last question on Saudi Arabia.
00:26:35.000The president is going to Saudi Arabia, where we understand he will be meeting with the Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman.
00:26:39.000Is there any kind of promise beforehand that the Saudis will increase production?
00:26:50.000And let me just say, John, John, we really want to see us move to clean energy, but we also need to see this increase right now.
00:26:57.000And we are asking the oil and gas companies as well to diversify and make sure that part of that they become diversified energy companies to be able to produce other means of clean energy because they have huge deep pockets.
00:27:11.000They have a big ability to invest in the future as well as investing right now so that we don't see oil and gas causing the inflation numbers and people being hurt every day.
00:27:22.000Energy Secretary General Granholm, I do appreciate you being with us this morning.
00:29:07.000So she has no knowledge whatsoever of what does it actually take to develop the process to be able to extract oil and natural gas from the Permian Basin or from the Marcella Shale or the Balkan Shale.
00:29:20.000Come on, just like, come on, get more out of it.
00:29:37.000Don't know how that makes you qualified.
00:29:39.000Probably because of electric vehicles or something or whatever.
00:29:45.000She says, in the immediate, we're going to be transitioning, but we also demand more from you right now to be able to help resurrect our sinking poll numbers.
00:29:56.000She wants you to go expand your oil rigs in the Permian Basin outside of Midland, Texas.
00:30:03.000But she then tells you simultaneously, hey, in a couple months, that's going to be a graveyard of rigs and you're going to have to figure out how to pay for it.
00:30:11.000And the energy community says, yeah, not going to happen.
00:30:50.000You rarely see this kind of focus and commitment.
00:30:52.000They recently shared with me that they are doubling down and want to literally double their total number of happy customers in the next year.
00:30:59.000So here's the deal: if you're struggling with back pain, neck pain, shoulder, hip, or knee pain, even general muscle aches and pain, then I'm suggesting you order their three-week quick start, still discounted, only $19.95.
00:31:50.000Now, we've done some focus on drag queens.
00:31:54.000So, for those of you that don't know what a drag queen is, it is a person who is under a mental delusion who thinks they are a different gender, and they dress up and they put all sorts of weird makeup on, and then they go dance in front of kids.
00:32:09.000If you do a drag queen with your kids, there's drag queens without kids, obviously, but kind of the new weird fascination is that you now have to go do this in front of children.
00:32:19.000This could be called drag queen story hour, drag queen bar time with children.
00:32:23.000It should be illegal, it should be banned, it's predatory in nature.
00:32:28.000And so, we've been kind of covering this.
00:32:30.000Alex Stein did some great coverage of this in Dallas.
00:32:33.000Drew Hernandez with us at Turning Point USA did some great coverage at Parade recently, really made the alphabet mafia just go insane that anyone would dare kind of show how children are now being invited to these pride parades, whatever they call them.
00:32:51.000But this has all been, in some sense, kind of on the fringes.
00:32:54.000I mean, Nancy Pelosi called drag queens heroes or something of the sort that you guys are what makes America great.
00:33:00.000Like, yeah, you know, it's not our veterans, our police officers, manufacturing base, our pastors, our charity, our benevolency.
00:33:06.000No, no, no, what makes our country great, according to Nancy Pelosi, is our drag queens.
00:33:12.000But now, an office holder, the attorney general of Michigan, Dana Nessel, said, You know what we need?
00:33:21.000It's not a chicken in every pot, as Steve Bannon would say.
00:34:52.000The big takeaway from Uvalde, the big takeaway from all these school shootings, according to Dana Nessel, it's not that we need school resource officers or single-point entry or dogs.
00:35:04.000According to Dana Nestel, you know what we need?
00:35:06.000You know what will stop school shootings?
00:35:14.000That if we just had more drag queens in these schools throwing glitter in people's faces with signs that say it's not going to lick itself, which is what happened at the drag queen at the bar in Dallas, according to Dana Nessel, the depraved and perverted Attorney General of Michigan, the Attorney General, this is not some weird activist.
00:35:39.000This is not some fringe person at Arizona State University that we just got on camera and we asked them questions.
00:35:44.000It's not some college campus kid that stumbles upon it.
