Hey, Bill O'Reilly here. Welcome to the No Spin News. Monday, June 9th, 2025. Stand up for your country. Well, a big story, of course, National Guard going to Los Angeles to quell the pro-migrant rallies or protests or anarchy. You can fill in your word. And it points up the growing, I didn't think it could get any worse, but it is, division in this country.

But we have facts that you don't know about, and we are going to present them to you. And then we have Senator Ron Johnson on the big, beautiful bill. He doesn't think it's so beautiful. But there's another aspect to this bill that, again, nobody's reporting, and I will. So we have a lot for you, and the Talking Points is on L.A.

Okay, so ICE is deporting an enormous amount of people, mostly criminal, but not all. And they make mistakes. Anybody would. Any organization would sweep up people that are harmless when you're going after hundreds of thousands of people. Remember, Joe Biden allowed 14 million foreign nationals into this country in four years unattended.

14 million. It is the worst policy decision in the history of this country. There is no doubt about it. And we have researched this. We could not have researched it any further. The number is 14 million. Out of that 14 million, you feel if 10% of the population is evil, which it is, that's 1.4%.

million criminals or people of destruction. That's a lot of folks. So ICE is all over the place and the people on the left in Los Angeles don't like that. Los Angeles is a sanctuary city and county, very sympathetic to all migrants. Criminals, they won't cooperate.

Gavin Newsom, the governor, is in on that. Karen Bass, the mayor of L.A., is in on that. They are the second most extreme on this issue in the country next to Boston. Boston is the worst. Okay.

So Friday afternoon, a bunch of far left people, Antifa, anarchists and pro-migrant groups started to demonstrate and they stopped traffic 101, which is, you know, L.A. is the big artery there, tried to shut it down, set cars on fire. They did all of this.

President Trump, okay, obviously getting reports, knows the state of California will not prosecute these people. He knows that because George Floyd riots proved it. Okay, so if you are arrested for vandalism or looting or whatever in Los Angeles, you will not face state or local charges. Trump knows that.

He also knows that his base, the MAGA base, and 56% of the American people, all right, according to all the polls, don't want unfettered immigration. So he's got the majority on his side, and he decides to send in a National Guard. There's a January 6th component to this that I'll get to in a moment. So the Guard shows up, just 300 of them, not

overwhelming force, but enough to cause all kinds of reaction from the far left. Now remember, there's looting going on, there's arson going on. Nobody is dead that we know of yet, okay? 56 total arrests, not that many, about 2,000 protesters, that's the estimated crowd. The LA Police Department itself declared an unlawful assembly.

But this isn't Trump doing this, this is the local cops. Trump sends them in, okay? Then immediately Gavin Newsom, who is running for president in 2028, seizes the opportunity to play to his base. Roll the tape. He's a tough guy, why doesn't he do that? He knows where to find me. But you know what? Let your hands off four-year-old girls that are trying to get educated.

Get your hands off these poor people. They're just trying to live their lives, man. Trying to live their lives, paying their taxes. Been here 10 years. The fear, the horror, the hell is this guy? Come after me, arrest me. Let's just get it over with. Tough guy. And that would be great for Newsom. If he got arrested, that's what he wants. He wants to be the left-wing martyr. And, you know, I don't know whether Trump knows that or not, but probably not wise to arrest the governor because there's no real charges.

Now, if Newsom were to go out there and do something, okay, but at this point, arresting Newsom helps Newsom. But what you need to know is Newsom is doing this so that he can elevate himself into position to be the nominee for the Democratic Party in '28. Okay. So, at this point, we don't have much else. We don't really know how this is going to evolve.

All right, but we do know that the far left is hurting itself. So did I just contradict myself? No, because Newsom believes that he'll gain traction in his own personal quest. But most Americans don't like this, okay? But Newsom doesn't need most Americans to get the nomination. Now here's our pal Maxine Waters, the radical left congresswoman out there, go.

I mean, there's no reason to be here with the National Guard. The president of the United States is cruel. This honorable human being would just assume they shoot somebody down. But I don't want that to happen. The protesters that are out there, thank you. Please keep protesting.

protest peacefully, but please keep protesting because Donald Trump wants one of two things. He either wants people to stay quiet, to cower and just look the other way while he continues to overreach, overreach and abuse his authority, or he wants us to overreact and give him license to continue the escalation. Okay, so that's the left wing line on it. Now, January 6th. Now, you'll remember that Donald Trump, and this is on the record, this is not an opinion.

The night before, on January 5th, alerted the National Guard they might be needed to protect the Capitol on January 6th. Okay, and Kash Patel expedited that order. But Trump didn't have the authority, or so he believed as president, to order the Guard onto the grounds of the Capitol building. Nancy Pelosi did.

Nancy Pelosi denies, she said, that the National Guard shouldn't be there. But you will remember that her daughter, Alexandria, blew her up unintentionally by just making a remark going, yeah, my mother didn't want that guard and wouldn't ask for it. You remember that. It's all on the record. Now, Trump remembers it because Trump, that hurt him on January 6th, hurt him a lot. So he wasn't going to make that mistake again.

So coupled with his political benefit of ordering a guard out there, and it won't be a benefit if it escalates out of control, but I don't think it will. I could be wrong on that. But the January 6th component is right there. So you need to consider the big picture, which is what we give you here on the No Spin News. No partisan blather. And that's the memo.

Let's face it, the U.S. economy is under stress. National debt rising, trade war shaking the markets. And meanwhile, China is dumping the dollar and stockpiling gold.

Okay, the House, as you know, on May 22nd passed the spending bill by one, 215 to 214. Two Republicans voted against it, Massey and Davidson in the House. All Democrats voted against Trump's spending bill. Now the Senate has a lot of trouble because conservative senators don't want this amount of spending. They don't want it too high. But if the bill fails,

then automatically there are tax rises. We'll put them up on a full screen. I'll tell you for radio what it is. So the average individual tax, what you and I pay for working, will go up 2.5% automatically. But this is the most important thing. 50% of the deductions that we all file with the IRS go away, which rockets.

how much money Americans will pay to the government. That's not passed, it's nothing. That just kicks in if this bill goes down. If that happens, it'll likely a recession will follow. If the recession follows, then the Republicans will lose the midterm elections and Donald Trump will be doomed. It's not just about spending. It's about holding power in America.

Hey, Bill O'Reilly here. In my career, I have interviewed seven presidents, covered every major story of the last few decades. But I've never seen an opportunity like this one. President Trump's second term could mirror the economic boom in the 1920s.

A time when unemployment hit 1.8%, stocks soared 265%. And ordinary Americans had their shot at real prosperity. That's why I've recorded a special presentation with renowned investment expert Alexander Green called The Rebirth of the American Dream.

Alex will reveal how President Trump plans to slash regulations, cut taxes, bring manufacturing back to America, and unlock the AI-driven tech boom. Plus, you will get details on six specific stocks that could soar during Trump's presidency. Please visit TrumpsAmericanDream.com to watch our presentation now.

Joining us now from Washington is a senator who does not like the bill. I said he might not vote for the bill, Ron Johnson of Wisconsin. My positioning this in a fallacious, word of the day, way, Senator. I think you have a pretty accurate assessment. I don't really disagree with it. And by the way, the bill as it goes, as far as it goes, I don't have too many problems with. The problem is it just simply doesn't go far enough. And if we do this

is a one and done bill and we don't do anything further, and that's pretty much the indication we have, we're simply not addressing the massive long-term debt deficit that, from my standpoint, is the biggest issue here. So let me just throw a couple numbers at you, just put these things in perspective. In 2019, we spent $4.4 trillion dollars

This year, we spent over $7 trillion. That's a 58% increase. Next year, about 7.3. But here's the one that I've really been focusing on now, average deficits over the last presidential terms. Obama came in, shot deficits up almost $1.3 trillion average in his first four years.

But then the Tea Party, I'm part of that, came in. We put some restraint. That got knocked down to about $550 billion a year for his four years. Trump came in, had a due deal with Democrats. That went up to about $810 billion per year. Then he had COVID, a $3.1 trillion deficit, just a massive bipartisan spending spurt.

And responsible leadership would realize, okay, that's an aberration. We got to return to pre-pandemic levels. We should have gotten down really below $5 trillion in spending and certainly below $1 trillion in deficits. That's not what happened. We kept spending at pandemic levels. Biden averaged deficits of $1.9 trillion.

And if you look at the scoring of the big, beautiful bill right now, those deficits just continue to increase from about $2.2 trillion in the next four years up to about, I think, $2.9 trillion. That's off the top of my head. Again, we're not bending the deficit curve down. Now, I'm going to be issuing a report I've been working on over the weekend. We're doing different scenarios based on different growth scenarios. You literally have to get to about 4% growth before

before you start bending that deficit curve down, that trajectory down toward balance. 3%, that kind of flattens it out to averages about $2.1 trillion in deficits over the next 10 years. Again, I'm just not willing to accept that as new normal. Okay. Now, what you just said, nobody understands. I'm sorry about that. It's all right.

It's impossible. It's impossible. No average voter. So I'm a simple man and I'm putting myself in your seat. I'm a senator. And here's my calculation. You're right. The federal government spending is wildly out of control and the waste is phenomenal. And our system needs to be more disciplined. You're right. But we're in a crossroads in history here.

where the Democratic Party doesn't want any spending cuts, maybe a little in defense, but they don't want any. You know it, everybody knows it. They want to increase it. In fact, more. They don't even want supervision of Medicaid, which we'll do tomorrow. They don't want any reform. They hated Musk. They hate Doge. They don't want anything. That's where you start. The Republican Party is the party of responsibility now fiscally.

But if the Republican Party gets its butt kicked in 26, it's over and the gates open and you'll have way more spending than you have now. Is that true? You're right. Listen, it's easy to be. OK, wait, wait, stop, stop. Go ahead. So I'm right. OK, so what Trump has done, and I know this because I have access to the president, he says, I know this bill.

jack spending. But my tariffs are going to bring down the deficit and debt. And as you know, the recent report, in one month, the tariffs have cut the deficit in half. So Trump says, I'm going to get my trade deals. We don't know whether he will or not.

Okay, and then all the money coming into the Treasury is gonna bring this stuff down. So keep me in power with no tax rise and that'll start to come down because of the money coming in. Is the president wrong? Yes. I hate to say it, I'm a big supporter of the president, but right now the White House is putting out a memo saying that tariff revenue over the next 10 years will be about $2.8 trillion.

Again, that compares to a $22 trillion deficit. And by the way, if you extend the taxes, they admit that the baseline goes up to about $25 trillion. So it might reduce the deficit by about 10%. Again, it's still inadequate. And the tariff revenue is very problematic.

It's being tested in the court whether President Trump really has this executive power. If the courts decide he doesn't, and I think it, you know, again, I'm not a legal scholar when it comes to this tariff law, but if they strike that down, I doubt that Congress is going to impose sweeping tariffs like that. So again, that revenue is very uncertain. And let me make a final point.

I support President Trump because I want him to defeat the deep state. You don't defeat the deep state by continuing to fund it at President Biden's level. So for me, it is. It's spending, spending, spending. But if you hold firm, if you hold firm, Senator, and you vote against it and others do, Republicans do, then it all blows up. If you vote for it.

I think there's a big possibility that if the economy surges, that you'll have a much bigger majority going forward where you can revisit this whole thing without the razor thin majority in the House and the Senate.

Now, you know you can introduce new spending bills anytime you want to introduce them. And if you have the power of the party controlling the Senate and the House, you can revise this kind of thing. But if you have no power, then it's over. Last word. I understand. So, again, what I've been saying is I want a commitment to a reasonable pre-pandemic level and a process –

a really strong, robust process to achieve and maintain it. Now that gives pretty wide latitude. Again, a one and done single bill in this Congress, and that's what I find unacceptable. I'm more than willing to work with the administration. What is that process? What can we do to make sure that we don't do a one and done bill?

So again, the game, not a game, the process has just begun here in the Senate, and I'm just trying to make this a whole lot better. - All right, and that's your job. - I'm gonna jump a couple steps already. We would've already had, quite honestly, the border funding. We would've already extended current taxes, take that tax increase off the table had we done it my approach.

President Trump decided one big beautiful bill, but again, if it's a one and done bill, we're really short to changing ourselves here and we're really blowing a historic opportunity. There's no guarantee we'll have the House, the Senate, and we'll have the presidency in 2027, but we can't count on having the majority in the other two chambers. So we've got to do it now. I don't know about, you have access to the president, he returns your calls and stuff, right? You have a dialogue with him, correct?

Correct. He's not real happy with the... No, I mean, you know, he wants what he wants when he wants it. But it's all negotiation. You know that. Are you optimistic in the end that you're going to get a bill that will pass and so that taxes will not rise? Are you optimistic there?

Yeah, we're not going to increase taxes. And by the way, I had to hold out on the Tax Cut and Jobs Act, too, because the bill delivered by the House is only going to cut taxes for 5% of American businesses. So I'm the guy that had to dig my heels and say, hey, what about the 95% of American businesses that are pass-through entities? First of all, I had to educate my colleagues in terms of what a pass-through entity was.

But again, I dug in. I got the snarly phone calls from the White House at 10 o'clock at night. But in the end, everybody thanked me for holding out. So again, I'm trying to make this a whole lot better than what it is. Again, say that- When do you think the vote, is your whole summer going to be ruined? Or are you going to be able to vote fairly soon?

well in order to get it right getting before july 4th we won't have it right so this may drag on again we we all want we all want the same result we don't want to increase we want to fund the border we want to take what spending in uh reduction that the house has already pocketed and just do do more and again have a process for for starting to bend that deficit trajectory down which this bill doesn't do unfortunately

All right, Senator, we really appreciate you taking the time and we'll talk again soon, I hope. Thank you. Have a great day. With a Venmo debit card, you can Venmo more than just your friends.

Elon, we hardly knew you. It's on Bill O'Reilly.com, our message of the day. Basically talking about power.

and why this happens and how people see power, those who have it. So you might want to read that. But does this story affect you directly? No. Is it going to die out? Yes. But the left is trying to use it as a demonstration of corruption. And I don't see that at all. But, you know, my job is to watch all opinion, not just reject it because it comes out of the left wing.

But NBC News, as always, is in the forefront of the foolishness. Roll the tape. Why does any of this matter, right? Two tarantulas in a bowl. Why does it matter? Well, here's why. When the most powerful person in our government fights with the richest person in the world, we, as a public, get to peer deep inside the most corrupt and superficial alliance in American political history. That's just absurd.

It's just insane to say that. There's no evidence with that, that it's a corrupt political alliance. None. Yeah, Elon Musk, his corporations get subsidies because of global warming. That's why. And it happened long before Trump was involved with him. You know, these people on the network say this stuff because they know they can say it. No one's going to call them on it. And this is what the audience wants to hear.

If that woman sat across from me to debate this statement, it's the most corrupt and superficial alliance in American political history, I would destroy her. I'd have 10 examples of worse stuff, and then I'd say, what is your evidence that it's a corrupt alliance? Give me something. Give me one thing. But it doesn't matter. They say what they want. It's just insane.

All right, so the story is not, it's just about over now. It doesn't really matter to you. I mean, you might be emotionally involved with it, but I hope you're not. As we just discussed with the senator, Wall Street Journal reports, and nobody picked it up because it's good news for Trump, that $62 billion in April was the deficit as opposed to $138 billion in March. That's a pretty big cut. And that's because of the tariff money coming in.

Remember, Trump, and he's not going to go away from this, is imposed a 10% entrance fee to do business in the USA for everybody on the planet. It's like an admissions charge. And that's a lot of money. But, you know, you heard me, you heard the Senate. The one thing that we can't predict is inflation, whether this tariff business will ignite it. If it does, then Trump is going to get hurt.

China and U.S. and London have a lot of optimism here. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessett, Aaron Lutnick, Commerce Secretary talking to second in command in the Chinese government in London about trade. The Chinese, they take their time.

They got some urgency over there. 1.5 billion, a lot of people to feed. One of the points I made to the Politburo when I spoke to them was, you know, I don't know what you guys understand the United States, but when we go into recession, people have backup. They have savings accounts. They have IRAs. They have a bunch of stuff that they can go back to. They can refinance mortgages. There's a bunch of stuff to keep them afloat. There's safety nets.

all of that. In China, you don't have any of that. If you go into a severe recession in China, people don't eat and you're through. I didn't say you're through to the Politburo, but I went right up to that line. So you can't afford a worldwide recession. You can't. So you got to deal. That's one of the points I made to the boys and one girl.

We don't hear much about this story because the left was on this Garcia, Kilmar Armando Abrego Garcia, quite the name. He backed from El Salvador. He got booted March 15th. It flew him back over the weekend to face federal charges in Tennessee of trafficking undocumented aliens, which he apparently did, and the Tennessee authorities didn't prosecute him, which is a scandal.

But he's back. But you didn't hear the congressman from, what, Hoffman, somebody in Maryland, who went over to see him? You didn't hear him go, oh, we're happy he's back. No, no, because he did it. Looks to me, I mean, due process, of course, but they're going to nail him. And then all these people went over to have margaritas with him in El Salvador. What are they going to say? They don't care.

Trump got a victory Friday night, unreported, that the Associated Press is not entitled to be in the press meetings at the White House. So this was a Court of Appeals DC two to one ruling. And the ruling is interesting. It says that the White House spaces aren't open to the public or large press pools. And the White House has the authority to decide who's there because it's a closed space.

That was a ruling. And you remember that Trump doesn't like the Associated Press because they wouldn't say it's the Gulf of America. But the Associated Press despises Donald Trump. That's the real reason. And they don't report on him fairly. So they're out. They're not coming back for a while. ABC News scandal. So this guy Terry Moran, never met him, over at ABC, 28 years. I think he came shortly after I left.

He, and this is always dangerous, put out on social media the following, quote, "The thing about Stephen Miller, who is Trump's top advisor, not his brains behind Trumpism. Yes, he's one of the people who conceptualizes the impulses of the Trumpiest movement and translate them in policy, but that's not what's interesting about Miller. It's not brains, it's bile. Miller's a man who was richly endowed with the capacity for hatred

world-class hater. You can see this just by looking at him because you can see that his hatreds are his spiritual nourishment. Oh my God. He eats his hate. Trump is a world-class hater, but his hatred only means to an end, and that end is his own glorification. That's his spiritual nourishment. Now this Moran is a reporter. He's a White House reporter. You can't do that. So he's suspended. ABC had to suspend him.

Man, I suspend them indefinitely. You're not going to fire them, but Disney, which owns ABC News, I mean, how much more, Disney, are you going to allow? Everybody you employ hates Trump. Do you have a couple of people that don't hate him? You can't find him? Anyway, hate has destroyed the network news. So it's not only ABC.

It's CBS. Now remember, ABC had to pay Trump $15 million for his library because George Stephanopoulos, the Good Morning America guy, said that Trump was guilty of rape. That's defamation. ABC News settled. But Disney is still, as I said, is rife with these people. You may get a little excited when you shop at Burlington. I hold the price! Do you see that? They have my face!

So you can make up your own mind about that. I have. They definitely edited that to make Kamala Harris look good, not because of time.

they got plenty of time at 60 minutes um they want to make it look better anyway scott pelly is a 60 minute correspondent former anchor of cbs evening news who hates trump roll the tape why attack universities why attack journalism because ignorance works for power

First, make the truth-seekers live in fear. Sue the journalists and their companies for nothing.

Then send masked agents to abduct a college student who wrote an editorial in her college paper defending Palestinian rights and send her to a prison in Louisiana charged with nothing.

No, she's charged with violating immigration laws and nothing to Pelley is something to a lot of other Americans. But I don't want to debate what Pelley says. He's entitled to say what he wants. They should give him the Pelley factor. He should be on CBS giving commentary. But he's not a journalist. He's not an objective reporter. He's a hater. He hates Trump. He always has hated Trump. Moran hates Trump.

Stepanopoulos hates Trump. On and on and on. And don't even get me started about NBC. They're the worst. Go. Donald Trump became the first president in history to get humiliated by two people at the same time, with one of them not even being in the room. The richest person in the world, who Donald Trump now claims he fired last week,

was live tweeting Donald Trump's stupidity festival in the Oval Office saying, among other things, Donald Trump should be impeached. That guy has made a living hating Trump. So all three have destroyed themselves with non-far left people. Now, I have a YouTube commentary on the Bill O'Reilly YouTube channel, and I'll give you the numbers.

I'll give you the numbers on how all of the network news have declined. It is a catastrophe. Trump destroyed them because they hate him so much. Smart life. So we want you to be concierge members. I don't understand why 335 million people aren't concierge members to BillO'Reilly.com. I don't understand why that you, I can't believe you haven't signed up for it because you're going to run into trouble in life. And then my operation will help you.

And you get free book and you get discounts. I'm going, what more do we have to do? I'm going to give two examples. There's a guy named Gene in Florida, a lot of trouble. And Gene doesn't have a lot of money. OK, with LG refrigerator. All right. And they sold him a bad refrigerator. And then they said, blank you, Gene. So my producer put in 10 calls to LG refrigerators and they were just dodging, dodging, dodging. OK, finally, they issued a refund.

Because we said, you better do the right thing, LG. And they were forced to do the right thing. But Gene couldn't have gotten it done, but we did. So he got a refund. Scott in Kentucky, cryptocurrency. Do not get involved with that. This is a Smart Life segment. Do not get involved with cryptocurrency. You're insane if you do. So they locked him out of his cryptocurrency financial account.

And then when he tried to get back in, they said, blank you, Scott. We got him back in. I can give you a thousand of these, you know, and I'm giving you the small balls, some big ones. So I don't know what's a cliche. You lead the horse to water, but you can't make them drink. Concierge membership, Bill O'Reilly dot com. Stay in history. June 9th, 2019. The largest demonstration in China history took place. A million people, Hong Kong.

All right. They protested a policy where if you commit a crime in Hong Kong, they take you to mainland China for trial. Now, this led to what I saw in China in late May, the most intense surveillance state on the earth. Chinese government saw a million people in Hong Kong demonstrate. That was it. That was six years ago. Since that time, you cannot do anything.

You are surveilled all the time. Chinese citizens we're talking about here. Step out of line, they come and they take you away. As Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young once sang in Buffalo Springfield. That happened six years ago today. All right, final thought about your life and your expectations coming right up. Okay, final thought of the day here. One of the reasons that people are unhappy, and life is hard.

Younger people, I don't think have accepted that. But if you're over 25, you know life is hard. Bad things happen, and you've got to be strong enough to cope with them and roll with them. Got to. Or you go down or become a drug addict or an alcoholic or a destructive person. You've got to develop that strength. It's like going to the gym with your mind. But I've noticed when I was coming up, my expectations weren't huge. I just wanted people to be honest people.

to me and around me. That's pretty much it. I wanted honesty. But I didn't think anybody owed me anything. And when I met somebody, I didn't say, well, you know, this person. No. But today, expectations, not only on people, but of things, you know, you go on a trip and, oh, it's going to be great. You got to tamp it down. If you're pleasantly surprised, that is a gift of life.

But if you build a person or a situation up, you're going to be let down. And you're going to be unhappy because they didn't meet your expectations. And particularly in the marriage, we get a lot of problems with marriage here in the United States. And, you know, because people's expectations, the spouse can't meet them because the spouse has their own problems or situations. And, you know, what do they call it? The honey-do list?

You got to roll like this. You choose people who are honest. Number one, honest people. They're not honest. You see that you got to get out of there. Okay. And number two, you're benevolent. Okay. You want a certain level of performance, but you know, with the kids and stuff like that, the expectations you got, you got to be able to shift.

If you do that, take my advice in this final thought, you'll be a lot happier. And so will the people around you. Final thought of the day. Thank you for watching the No Spin News. We'll see you again tomorrow.
