Kate Steinle's murderer has been declared not guilty in the murder of a 32-year-old woman. How can a man fire a gun into a group of people, kill a woman, then throw the murder weapon into the ocean and get off scot-free?
00:00:15.160I am sorry, I'm just reading some of the news today, and some of it I just, it cannot, absolutely cannot be true.
00:00:21.980Disney is debuting its first boy princess with chest hair to teach a powerful lesson about gender bias.
00:00:32.880Okay, why not? Why not? I mean, I don't know if you saw the news yesterday in San Francisco.
00:00:40.040Kate Steinle's murderer has been declared not guilty.
00:00:43.820Three, multiple felon, and five-time deportee killed the 32-year-old woman over two years ago, but her family will never see justice.
00:00:55.180The California state government has made a complete mockery of the justice system on multiple levels.
00:01:03.260Answer me this, San Francisco. Help me out. I can't seem to wrap my brain around this.
00:01:09.760How can a man fire a gun into a group of people, kill a woman, then throw the murder weapon into the ocean, get caught fleeing the scene, and get off scot-free?
00:01:23.260Help me, help me out. I don't understand your definition of law and order.
00:01:29.520What was the prosecution doing during this case?
00:01:33.060The killer admitted that he fired the gun.
00:01:37.440The only case the defense had was, this was an accident.
00:05:49.980I've been to how many times have you walked the docks in San Francisco and you see the seals and then you're like, oh, my gosh, they're surrounded by guns just laying all around them.
00:07:52.460A Disney animated series has introduced its first male princess complete with chest hair to share an important bias about gender bias.
00:08:04.740A recent episode on the Disney XD channel animated series Star vs. the Forces of Evil.
00:08:14.500The character Marco transforms himself into Princess Marco for his visit to St. Olga's Reform School for Wayward Princesses, where he's given an honorary degree.
00:08:28.660However, before Marco is able to confess that he is pretending to be a princess, the school's evil headmistress, Miss Haynes, outs him as a boy by exposing his single curly chest hair that is hidden underneath his purple gown.
00:33:43.160It's a, it's a, it's a, it's a, you know, I watched this documentary, um, the other day, um, from HBO on, uh, the meth problem in Arkansas.
00:33:56.100It's just a different world, you know, watching these, watching these people, um, who are just trapped in the, you know, they were, they were making meth in labs, you know, kind of like stills out in the back woods.
00:34:22.020And the drug cartels are just dumping this stuff in this community, in this whole area in, um, um, not Alabama.
00:34:33.580Where was I just talking about, um, Arkansas?
00:34:36.500I always, so far, I get those two states confused all the time.
00:34:40.780They were talking about Tom Cotton going to, uh, uh, to go to the, the, uh, CIA because Pompeo might go to Tillerson slot and secretary of state.
00:34:50.300And I'm like, wow, are they going to do a second senator from Alabama?
00:41:21.000Every American, you have a family, 32-year-old woman walking with her dad on the pier at San Francisco, and all of a sudden, she's shot in the head.
00:41:45.220So you take that and then you say, well, we have to have justice because in America, we're a system where justice is demanded, or at least we were.
00:42:02.180Zarate did, but the jury found that it might have been an accident.
00:42:06.520However, Jim Steinle, Kate's father, the man in whose arms Kate died, was at the trial every day and said, justice was delivered, but it really wasn't justice.
00:43:57.840The only piece of evidence that would knock him out of second-degree murder is that the bullet that hit Kate in the head ricocheted off the concrete on the pier.
00:44:55.560I mean, these poor people, and they weren't even told, by the way.
00:44:58.460The jury was not even told about Zarate's deportations, his felony convictions, his nationality.
00:45:05.480They weren't told about it because it didn't pertain directly to the crime.
00:45:10.180Have you ever been in a jury where it was life or death kind of stuff?
00:45:17.360Have you ever been in a jury like this?
00:45:18.780No, I covered them, but I've never been sitting.
00:45:20.960So I was seated in one, and it still haunts me.
00:45:25.240It still haunts me, because we made a decision that once we found out all of the information afterwards, we were like, we would have never done that.
00:45:57.680And he said, well, first of all, let me say this.
00:46:00.060I can sentence him that will put him away for a long time.
00:46:04.300But he told us, you know, that he was wearing, at one point he was wearing sneakers of a woman that had a woman's blood on them after he had beaten her.
00:46:14.720And he wore them in the trial, and no one knew about it.
00:46:26.900But when you step back, in our system of justice, which is evaporating quickly here, we give every opportunity for the accused to have a so-called fair trial.
00:46:42.460So that's why the evidence that's not directly involved in the crime is included in some cases.
00:46:47.580But again, I wouldn't have a problem with that if it would have been involuntary manslaughter.
00:46:53.480Is there any doubt in your mind if Bill O'Reilly were down on that and you found a gun and it just went off in your hands and it ricocheted and it killed an illegal immigrant or just an immigrant or just a person of color?
00:47:09.480Is there any doubt in your mind that you would have at least gotten involuntary manslaughter?
00:48:29.120And Mitch McConnell, the Republican, when he, when the Republicans, GOP, regained control of the Senate, he wouldn't put it up for a vote, stand-alone vote.
00:48:55.760But the larger societal impact here is whether this guy shot Kate intentionally, whether he did it by mistake, whether he dropped a banana peel on the sidewalk and she slipped and died.
00:49:07.860The point is he couldn't have done any of those things if he wasn't here.
00:49:34.460You know, I mean, really, what kind of people are these?
00:49:37.440So going forward, we can have Kate Steinle today or tomorrow.
00:49:41.700Because there are people, criminal aliens, who have been deported coming back.
00:49:46.000Because if they round them up, there's no mandatory sentence for them.
00:49:49.880Now, I've asked on BillOReilly.com, I'm demanding, I'm not asking, that Attorney General Sessions immediately put forth federal charges against Zarate for his five deportation defiances.
00:50:05.600They can wrap him up in prison for 20 years if they charge him on immigration law.
00:52:07.000Unlike anybody else, when you, you know, when you go and buy a business trip, I mean, you're at the bottom of the barrel and you just want to get there.
00:52:35.200So you just call up and you say, hey, you know, I want to go here.
00:52:39.440And they do they do all the work for you.
00:52:41.100But the most important thing is if you're trapped someplace, if you're bumped, you can call them and they'll they'll take care of it for you.
00:52:58.600They are proactively keeping posted on everything, including the weather in the city that you're going to changing your your flight home so you can adjust your meeting schedule.
00:53:09.140That kind of service doesn't exist with anyone.
00:54:55.020But but then to not give the break to the average person is is nuts is nuts.
00:55:03.280Well, there they are, though, in a sense that if you if you really analyze the bill, it does help.
00:55:10.420It does help the working class in America.
00:55:12.760I mean, it's not it's not fantastic, but it's it's it's something.
00:55:18.280And then the thinking is the wisdom is that when you stimulate the economy to this extent, and you mentioned it at the top of the hour, that there'll be more jobs available for everybody.
00:55:29.400And then the market will drive salaries up so that you will make money from this bill, not only by getting a tax cut, a little bit of one, but your opportunities will expand.
00:55:41.060So, I mean, I think that's the overall arch on it.
00:55:44.000The bottom line here, too, and no one's talking about this, the bottom 80 percent of families currently pay 33 percent of all tax federal taxes and will get 37 percent of the tax cuts.
00:55:53.900They pay 33 would get 37 percent of the tax cuts.
00:55:56.580The top one percent currently pays 27 percent of all the taxes, but would only get 18 percent of the tax cuts.
00:56:02.720So, I mean, they keep acting as if they're only giving money to the rich here.
00:56:10.800If you have a president who stimulates the economy to the extent that everybody wants to work can and salaries go up, that's an effective administration domestically.
00:59:38.200So does this does this move the case into the White House at all?
00:59:43.880No, because the White House did bail from Flynn fairly early because he did, as you pointed out, mislead Pence.
00:59:52.980So I don't think I mean, unless Flynn's got some information and nobody could possibly know that that connects the president with Russia directly, it's probably going to die out fast.
01:00:07.860Bill, I switching gears a little bit here.
01:00:10.240I did come across a little piece of an interview with you that I found to be interesting this week, as you may have seen and remembered.
01:00:19.240The Matt Lauer interview with you has been making the rounds quite a bit.
01:00:25.400And I'm wondering, have you offered an interview for him on your show?
01:00:30.420No, you know, everybody is caught up in the mass hysteria of all of these accusations.
01:00:37.800But I come back to the very simple thing.
01:00:40.660And what Americans should want is justice.
01:00:43.180They should want justice and nobody should be abused in the workplace.
01:00:47.360So when you keep your eye on that, and I think nobody would disagree with that, you can start to move through some of these things in a responsible way, unlike the press, which every headline is a conviction now.
01:01:05.220So Lauer, who I've known forever, but I'm not a friend of his, what he did in my interview in September when Killing England, and people don't know that, but I was promoting the book.
01:01:30.060I went in there and, you know, they did seven on that and two on the book.
01:01:33.820And fine, the book becomes number one.
01:01:35.800And I did what I had to do to promote the book.
01:01:38.500But as far as Lauer is concerned, I absolutely knew what he was going to do, what he was going to say.
01:01:43.680And if you look at the interview, I answered his questions honestly.
01:01:47.420Now, he doesn't look good because all the while he was asking those questions, he had to know that all of this stuff that he has now admitted was in the background.
01:04:11.800But the majority of people who are going to vote in the election, all right, they say that the press is despicable and we don't trust them.
01:04:22.660So that's the, you know, people rationalize their actions.
01:04:28.420Well, we don't know what he did, you know, but the press is dishonest, so we're going to give him the benefit of the doubt.
01:04:35.340So then he'll get in there, and I think the Senate will bushwhack him, and then the governor of Alabama eventually have to appoint somebody to take his place.
01:04:43.760I think that's how it's going to come down.
01:04:45.560You think the Senate is going to bushwhack him?
01:05:00.740We're already tied to Donald Trump, and if you believe the press reports, sources in the White House say that he's now saying that that excess Hollywood tape was fraudulent.
01:05:14.680Okay, now we go back to stream of consciousness.
01:05:18.220See, I don't think any of that seriously.
01:05:23.240I'm going to make a prediction here on the Glenn Beck program.
01:05:26.020I wish I had the English accent to do it, but I don't.
01:05:29.060After this tax reform thing gets passed, the press is going to then pivot into attacking Trump on the women accusations.
01:05:41.660That's going to be the next thing, because they can't go into 2018 with a roaring economy, all right, and a pretty good accomplishment on Trump's resume.
01:05:51.960They've got to take him down personally.
01:05:53.780So you're going to see hysteria develop coming up, and that's what's going to happen.
01:05:58.900So how do we—because I think we're sending—and I don't know what message we're sending, and I've struggled with this.
01:06:05.680I mean, Bill, you and I have talked about this off the air with your situation, and I mean, I've pressed you up against the wall and said, you know, I don't want to defend a bad guy.
01:06:15.620Tell me the situation, and I've had to make tough choices in my own life, you know, here.
01:06:23.200But I think we're all doing this throughout, and I don't know what message we're sending, but I do believe the stories about Donald Trump, and I do believe he has that kind of attitude.
01:06:37.080So what is this—by saying, you know what, the president's off limits, or, you know, Al Franken is off limits, or whatever, what does this mean to us in 20 years?
01:06:52.120Because I think we're here because we said character didn't matter in the 90s.
01:06:57.940Well, look, I know where you're coming from on this, but I think you've got to be careful.
01:07:04.240I know of a tape, an audio tape, that I hope becomes public very soon, because there are at least three crimes on the tape,
01:07:13.580that an anti-Trump person is offering money to someone to allege stuff against Donald Trump.
01:07:24.560And you've got to be careful about this kind of stuff, because there is a very—there are black ops, what they call in the CIA, going on to ruin people that George Soros, Media Matters, Color of Change, don't like.
01:08:10.540And you can't know the truth, so therefore you can't form judgments.
01:08:16.000You've got to be very—if you're fair-minded, very circumspect on it and very cautious.
01:08:22.500What's the appropriate way to look at these, Bill?
01:08:25.040Because I have really struggled with this.
01:08:27.280These things come out, and we're forced to try to make—without a court case, without a real accusation, without any charge being filed,
01:08:34.880we have to try to sit here and analyze through the media and random reports.
01:08:39.400You can't. You can't, because the media is never going to tell you the truth, and they're going to hang you in the headline, whoever you are.
01:08:46.540If you think this is going to stop, it's not.
01:08:48.620Next week, there'll be five other people.
01:08:50.500And then once you get into the campaign season in 2018, almost everybody who runs is going to be slimed in some way with this kind of stuff.
01:09:02.360And Americans have got to be aware of that this thing is pretty much out of control right now.
01:09:07.300I saw the thing with Garrison Keillor, and if what Garrison Keillor says is true—and look, I mean, I think Garrison Keillor is talented, and I know, I'm a rare bird on this one.
01:10:03.500But if there's evidence that you see, like a picture, Al Franken, or a police report, Weinstein, sure, that evidence has to be taken into account.
01:10:14.940But if there isn't, it's just like Garrison Keillor saying, I touched somebody on the back, and now I lost my job.
01:10:21.160You know, you've got to take that seriously, even if you don't like the guy.
01:10:24.480So you said before, Bill, you wouldn't vote for more.
01:10:27.960What was your decision-making process in that?
01:10:29.940I just don't think the guy is a problem solver, or he's a pure ideologue, all right, who has put forth a platform that I just don't think represents the country.
01:10:44.300I mean, and I don't know what he did or didn't do.
01:13:10.080If you are in the market for something that you can hold in your hand, and unlike Bitcoin, you know is going to be worth something, probably a lot.
01:13:20.500But if everything else goes to hell in a handbasket, then call Goldline.
01:13:26.180You're not going to get these prices again.
01:26:30.580A leader is somebody who understands that collaboration is critical.
01:26:35.860A leader is somebody who understands that character counts.
01:26:39.000A leader is someone who sees possibilities, particularly in other people.
01:26:45.460A leader is somebody who believes that every life is filled with potential and that we're all better off when each of us have the opportunity to fulfill our potential.
01:26:56.500And, you know, I do think that in this nation, sovereignty rests with the citizen.
01:27:05.020It's one of the unique qualities of our nation.
01:27:08.120Sovereignty rests with the citizen in this country.
01:27:10.480And so I think each of us, regardless of our position, and position never defines leadership, an individual defines leadership, regardless of our position, I think each of us as Americans as citizens need to lead more, need to step up and be leaders, and quit waiting for somebody else to do it for us, particularly our politicians.
01:27:33.880Quit waiting for people in positions of power and authority to lead for us, because too often they don't.
01:27:40.700And in this regard, we can make a difference in our workplaces and in our lives.
01:28:09.300I mean, that, you know, that's not sexual harassment.
01:28:12.900Um, if that happened the way he said it does, it did, but we're just, we're painting everyone with the same brush.
01:28:21.120And at the same time we're doing that, and I think in many cases, it's a really good thing.
01:28:26.980At the same time we're doing that, we are not holding the people in Washington, Donald Trump, Roy Moore, uh, um, uh, Franken, uh, and who's the other one?
01:28:39.160Uh, John Conyers, they're, they're not out immediately.
01:28:44.460NBC, here's something about Matt Lauer.
01:28:49.500If they don't get out, if we, if we have credible witnesses and they don't get out, uh, aren't we just going to send a message that you can absolutely do anything, probably up into and including killing someone.
01:29:07.800Well, you've said a couple of things there.
01:29:11.960First of all, I agree with you that we can overreact and do stupid things.
01:29:17.280And then of course it diminishes the real problems that exist.
01:29:21.140So for example, when, you know, the Obama administration overreacted to sexual assault on campus and basically said any woman that accuses a guy is going to be given the benefit of the doubt, even when the case doesn't hold water.
01:29:36.980I mean, that has had a terrible impact on young men's lives in some cases.
01:33:22.720I want you to listen to this report from ABC.
01:33:24.360He has promised full cooperation to the Mueller team.
01:33:27.220He is prepared to testify, we are told by a confidant, against President Trump, against members of the Trump family, and others in the White House.
01:33:34.100He is prepared to testify that President Trump, as a candidate, Donald Trump, ordered him, directed him to make contact with the Russians,
01:33:40.760which contradicts all that Donald Trump has said at this point.
01:33:43.840As well, we're told that Flynn made the decision to cooperate only in the last 24 hours, that he is distraught about the decision,
01:33:51.060but feels he's doing the right thing for his country, that he was facing huge legal bills of more than a million dollars,
01:33:56.620and that he said that finally he had to go ahead and do this for that reason.
01:34:01.060He expects to put his house on the market.
01:34:03.080He is facing serious financial problems.
01:35:12.740This is a big development in that this is a very close Trump confidant that has now turned against him, according to this report, if it's accurate.
01:35:39.280He has promised full cooperation to the Mueller team.
01:35:42.500He's prepared to testify, we are told by a confidant, against President Trump, against members of the Trump family and others in the White House.
01:35:49.240He is prepared to testify that President Trump, as a candidate, Donald Trump, ordered him, directed him to make contact with the Russians, which contradicts all that Donald Trump has said at this point.
01:35:59.100As well, we're told that Flynn made the decision to cooperate only in the last 24 hours, that he is distraught about the decision, but feels he's doing the right thing for his country, that he was facing huge legal bills of more than a million dollars.
01:36:11.880And that he said that finally he had to go ahead and do this for that reason.
01:36:15.980He expects to put his house on the market.
01:36:18.540He is facing serious financial problems.
01:37:42.040If you look at a timeline, this fits with how remember during the GOP convention, how all of a sudden the campaign didn't want to change anything, but they changed the one plank and it was about Russia.
01:37:56.880And we all kind of looked at each other and what the hell is that all about?
01:38:00.500So the question is that you have to ask yourself not whether or not Donald Trump did it or not, because he's already said he hasn't done this.
01:38:11.440The question you have to ask yourself right now and answer it.
01:38:45.560Does it matter if he was in bed with the Russians?
01:38:49.560The answer for me is clearly, yes, you have to be able to trust the president of the United States, and you also do not want the president of the United States doing backroom deals.
01:39:02.820I mean, we would have gone crazy, crazy.
01:39:06.300Remember when when what's his name said to President Obama, I will tell Vladimir.
01:39:13.840And all he said was, I need more time after the election.
