1
00:00:00,040 --> 00:00:01,560
Speaker 1: All right, Leonard Skinner's simple man.

2
00:00:01,560 --> 00:00:04,280
Speaker 2: That can only mean one thing on this radio program,

3
00:00:04,280 --> 00:00:07,200
Speaker 2: and that is all things self described simple man. That

4
00:00:07,280 --> 00:00:10,840
Speaker 2: means all things Bill O'Reilly, all things Bill O'Reilly, Bill

5
00:00:10,840 --> 00:00:14,800
Speaker 2: O'Reilly dot Com. I just want to make note of

6
00:00:15,000 --> 00:00:19,200
Speaker 2: a fact. Bill and I we have very different schedules,

7
00:00:19,960 --> 00:00:23,680
Speaker 2: and sometimes it's hard for Bill and I, you know,

8
00:00:23,840 --> 00:00:26,880
Speaker 2: to go live. And he has a phenomenal book out

9
00:00:27,400 --> 00:00:30,360
Speaker 2: and I read it cover to cover and he's written

10
00:00:30,600 --> 00:00:33,600
Speaker 2: one thousand number one New York Times bestselling books nineteen

11
00:00:33,640 --> 00:00:36,479
Speaker 2: to be very specific, and I know they hate it

12
00:00:36,520 --> 00:00:38,080
Speaker 2: every time they have to put his name at the

13
00:00:38,080 --> 00:00:41,159
Speaker 2: top of the list, but this one really got my

14
00:00:41,280 --> 00:00:44,479
Speaker 2: attention and I couldn't put the book down. And it's

15
00:00:44,560 --> 00:00:47,760
Speaker 2: ripped out of the headlines of Today. And we did

16
00:00:47,800 --> 00:00:50,800
Speaker 2: an interview that I think maybe was the best interaction

17
00:00:50,920 --> 00:00:55,000
Speaker 2: we had had together, and it was supposed to air,

18
00:00:55,400 --> 00:00:59,639
Speaker 2: and then Charlie Kirk got assassinated. By the way, we're

19
00:00:59,640 --> 00:01:03,160
Speaker 2: gonna put that whole interview again, I don't want to

20
00:01:03,200 --> 00:01:04,880
Speaker 2: take it out of context. This is why I'm bringing

21
00:01:04,920 --> 00:01:10,039
Speaker 2: Bill back Today Live because it is worth listening to.

22
00:01:10,160 --> 00:01:12,959
Speaker 2: It's gonna it's gonna it's up on Hannity dot Com.

23
00:01:13,360 --> 00:01:17,560
Speaker 2: He wrote a book Confronting Evil, Assessing the worst of

24
00:01:17,600 --> 00:01:20,600
Speaker 2: the Worst. I had written a book about evil back

25
00:01:20,600 --> 00:01:23,039
Speaker 2: in two thousand and for a very different book, but

26
00:01:23,480 --> 00:01:25,400
Speaker 2: it starts out I had on page one, I put

27
00:01:25,440 --> 00:01:29,200
Speaker 2: in there the Lord's for prayer, lead us not into temptation,

28
00:01:29,319 --> 00:01:32,840
Speaker 2: but deliver us from evil. And I've often made the

29
00:01:32,840 --> 00:01:36,319
Speaker 2: case that it is very hard for good people or

30
00:01:36,560 --> 00:01:39,280
Speaker 2: or people that mostly want to be good but are imperfect,

31
00:01:39,319 --> 00:01:42,440
Speaker 2: that are weak, and that we have our flaws, and

32
00:01:42,480 --> 00:01:44,560
Speaker 2: that we're all sinners and we've all sinned them fall

33
00:01:44,600 --> 00:01:47,240
Speaker 2: in short of the glory of God, which is the

34
00:01:47,600 --> 00:01:49,360
Speaker 2: whole Christian message of salvation.

35
00:01:50,560 --> 00:01:53,680
Speaker 1: And it just it hits home.

36
00:01:54,040 --> 00:01:58,800
Speaker 2: What happened this week, as hard and as painful as

37
00:01:58,840 --> 00:02:01,080
Speaker 2: it has been for all of view, and for me

38
00:02:01,600 --> 00:02:06,080
Speaker 2: and for Bill and for everybody, was evil. Now he's

39
00:02:06,120 --> 00:02:08,600
Speaker 2: talking more on a macro level, but it happens on

40
00:02:08,639 --> 00:02:11,240
Speaker 2: a micro level as well. I mean, if you hurt

41
00:02:11,280 --> 00:02:16,280
Speaker 2: a child, you are an evil human being. If you kill, assassinate,

42
00:02:17,000 --> 00:02:21,760
Speaker 2: you know, a cheerful, you know individual who says, tell

43
00:02:21,800 --> 00:02:25,760
Speaker 2: me where I'm wrong and goes into a hostile environment

44
00:02:25,880 --> 00:02:28,760
Speaker 2: of liberal and doctrination, like Charlie Kirk did, that's evil.

45
00:02:29,840 --> 00:02:34,160
Speaker 2: We're dealing with evil monsters on the world stage. President Chi,

46
00:02:34,560 --> 00:02:39,040
Speaker 2: Kim jong Un, Vladimir Putin, Ayatolaholmeni, you know back in

47
00:02:39,080 --> 00:02:42,480
Speaker 2: the day. Now we have the supreme leader. And Bill

48
00:02:42,600 --> 00:02:47,040
Speaker 2: captures this and makes you think in a way that

49
00:02:47,040 --> 00:02:51,200
Speaker 2: that you really you need to do a deep dive

50
00:02:51,280 --> 00:02:54,919
Speaker 2: into anyway, the book is on Hannity dot Com. As

51
00:02:54,919 --> 00:02:58,080
Speaker 2: I said, Amazon dot com, bookstores around the country, and

52
00:02:58,160 --> 00:03:00,359
Speaker 2: the other hour that we did, this will be a

53
00:03:00,440 --> 00:03:04,200
Speaker 2: very different hour we are putting on Hannity dot Com.

54
00:03:04,200 --> 00:03:06,880
Speaker 2: Mister O'Reilly start, thanks for coming back. I appreciate it.

55
00:03:07,320 --> 00:03:09,639
Speaker 2: But I really was moved by the book. I did

56
00:03:09,680 --> 00:03:13,119
Speaker 2: read a cover to cover, and it is in light

57
00:03:13,160 --> 00:03:16,600
Speaker 2: of everything that happened since we spoke earlier this week,

58
00:03:17,720 --> 00:03:20,040
Speaker 2: I think it takes on a whole new context.

59
00:03:20,440 --> 00:03:24,600
Speaker 3: Well, I did an interview earlier and the interview person

60
00:03:24,680 --> 00:03:29,120
Speaker 3: said to me, it's a haunting situation that your book

61
00:03:29,160 --> 00:03:32,280
Speaker 3: and Fronting Evil comes out on Tuesday and the very

62
00:03:32,320 --> 00:03:37,440
Speaker 3: next day putin lobs missiles into Poland and a few

63
00:03:37,440 --> 00:03:42,800
Speaker 3: hours later, Charlie Kirk is shot to death. I'm glad

64
00:03:42,840 --> 00:03:45,840
Speaker 3: we're doing this hour. It's an important hour. If you're

65
00:03:45,920 --> 00:03:49,400
Speaker 3: riding in the car anywhere in the United States, keep riding,

66
00:03:49,760 --> 00:03:52,120
Speaker 3: don't park and get out, you're going to want to

67
00:03:52,160 --> 00:03:54,440
Speaker 3: hear this whole hour. The first thing I'd like to do,

68
00:03:54,600 --> 00:03:57,800
Speaker 3: with your permission, because it's your show, Hannity, is to

69
00:03:57,880 --> 00:04:01,120
Speaker 3: report on what happened last night with President Trump and

70
00:04:01,200 --> 00:04:03,000
Speaker 3: me at Yankee Stadium. Would that be all right?

71
00:04:03,680 --> 00:04:05,240
Speaker 1: Yeah? Please? I knew you were there.

72
00:04:06,000 --> 00:04:09,400
Speaker 3: So I got a call late on Wednesday night, on

73
00:04:09,480 --> 00:04:16,000
Speaker 3: my birthday, from President Trump's top assistant, and he said,

74
00:04:16,200 --> 00:04:20,440
Speaker 3: she said, can you go to Yankee Stadium and watch

75
00:04:20,440 --> 00:04:24,039
Speaker 3: the game with the President? Now? What are you gonna say? No?

76
00:04:24,839 --> 00:04:28,760
Speaker 3: You know you have And I was pleased to go,

77
00:04:30,080 --> 00:04:34,000
Speaker 3: so I said, certainly. And I had no idea about

78
00:04:34,120 --> 00:04:36,360
Speaker 3: what the structure was going to be or anything like that.

79
00:04:36,400 --> 00:04:37,960
Speaker 3: I knew it was going to be in the steinbern

80
00:04:38,000 --> 00:04:41,120
Speaker 3: A box at the Yankee Stadium. That's the secure box,

81
00:04:41,640 --> 00:04:46,760
Speaker 3: but that's all I knew. And then subsequently we gathered

82
00:04:46,760 --> 00:04:49,880
Speaker 3: information it was going to be a big entourage. There

83
00:04:50,000 --> 00:04:52,800
Speaker 3: a lot of people in the Trump administration, all the

84
00:04:52,880 --> 00:04:56,520
Speaker 3: Republican Congress people, in New York, you know, Big Big

85
00:04:56,560 --> 00:04:59,080
Speaker 3: and all the Yankee people and the Steinbrand people. So

86
00:04:59,120 --> 00:05:02,800
Speaker 3: I got into the box and my little nameplate is

87
00:05:03,400 --> 00:05:08,240
Speaker 3: right next to President Trump, So Randy Levine and President

88
00:05:08,360 --> 00:05:10,719
Speaker 3: Yankees on one side, I'm on the other side of him.

89
00:05:11,279 --> 00:05:15,440
Speaker 3: Then I knew that this was serious, okay, And I

90
00:05:15,520 --> 00:05:19,080
Speaker 3: kind of knew that anyway, because President Trump was shaken

91
00:05:19,200 --> 00:05:23,840
Speaker 3: by the assassination of Charlie Kirk. And shaken, I mean,

92
00:05:23,880 --> 00:05:27,359
Speaker 3: he's not a man that shows emotion, as you know,

93
00:05:27,520 --> 00:05:30,240
Speaker 3: you know him very well. He is a show outward emotion.

94
00:05:30,960 --> 00:05:36,440
Speaker 3: But he knew Charlie and they were friends. And you know,

95
00:05:36,480 --> 00:05:39,760
Speaker 3: when you lose a friend suddenly like that and I have,

96
00:05:40,800 --> 00:05:46,280
Speaker 3: you know, it takes you a while to process it.

97
00:05:46,960 --> 00:05:51,200
Speaker 3: So anyway, throughout the game, there were two topics of conversation.

98
00:05:52,279 --> 00:05:56,560
Speaker 3: One was Charlie Kirk and the other was Evil Puttin.

99
00:05:57,800 --> 00:06:01,200
Speaker 3: So I can't report, you know, because the these conversations

100
00:06:01,200 --> 00:06:04,479
Speaker 3: are private. Nobody in the box could really hear what

101
00:06:04,600 --> 00:06:07,560
Speaker 3: the President and I were saying. Uh, And I can't

102
00:06:07,560 --> 00:06:10,840
Speaker 3: really tell the country, you know, but I can give

103
00:06:10,839 --> 00:06:15,880
Speaker 3: you an outline of it because he's aware. President Trump's

104
00:06:15,880 --> 00:06:17,839
Speaker 3: aware of confronting evil. In fact, I gave him a

105
00:06:17,880 --> 00:06:20,080
Speaker 3: copy and he says, I'm going to start to read

106
00:06:20,120 --> 00:06:25,440
Speaker 3: this tonight, And it was critical mass has been reached

107
00:06:25,480 --> 00:06:29,760
Speaker 3: with bad lad When when you're shooting missiles into a

108
00:06:29,839 --> 00:06:35,760
Speaker 3: NATO nation, that's enough, And it's as simple as that,

109
00:06:35,760 --> 00:06:41,320
Speaker 3: that's enough. So we discussed what the United States and

110
00:06:41,400 --> 00:06:43,840
Speaker 3: NATO have to do, and I believe President Trump is

111
00:06:43,880 --> 00:06:45,920
Speaker 3: going to do that fairly soon.

112
00:06:47,640 --> 00:06:50,719
Speaker 2: Well, I've had the same conversations all week with the

113
00:06:50,760 --> 00:06:53,560
Speaker 2: President off the record, and I'm not going to reveal them,

114
00:06:53,600 --> 00:06:55,880
Speaker 2: like you're not going to reveal them. And yeah, he

115
00:06:56,080 --> 00:07:00,560
Speaker 2: was friends with Charlie, right, and he's very aware of

116
00:07:00,560 --> 00:07:03,920
Speaker 2: of Putin. He gave him every opportunity, But he also

117
00:07:04,040 --> 00:07:07,960
Speaker 2: gave a Ran every opportunity to Bill. Now, but this

118
00:07:08,160 --> 00:07:11,840
Speaker 2: is a nuclear armed nation. It's a very different situation, right,

119
00:07:12,000 --> 00:07:12,760
Speaker 2: So you and I and.

120
00:07:12,800 --> 00:07:14,360
Speaker 3: I was just going to say that you and I

121
00:07:14,400 --> 00:07:17,880
Speaker 3: aren't getting the same information from the most powerful man

122
00:07:17,920 --> 00:07:21,800
Speaker 3: in the world, the rial card on Putin. It's not

123
00:07:21,880 --> 00:07:24,200
Speaker 3: like Iran. So you can go and you can bomb

124
00:07:24,280 --> 00:07:26,960
Speaker 3: r On. They can't do anything about it. But Putin

125
00:07:27,200 --> 00:07:30,120
Speaker 3: would use nuclear weapons. And after you read my book,

126
00:07:30,880 --> 00:07:33,440
Speaker 3: you'll see why, because he's not the same man that

127
00:07:33,520 --> 00:07:38,720
Speaker 3: he was in the first Trump administration. Evil always deteriorates,

128
00:07:38,920 --> 00:07:42,880
Speaker 3: it never gets better, and that is what has happened

129
00:07:43,040 --> 00:07:46,880
Speaker 3: to putin now, all right, So it has to be

130
00:07:47,000 --> 00:07:49,640
Speaker 3: very deliberate, it has to be very surgical. But the

131
00:07:49,680 --> 00:07:52,480
Speaker 3: message has to be sent to him in the world enough.

132
00:07:53,240 --> 00:07:56,160
Speaker 3: And then it was on to Charlie Kirk. And this

133
00:07:56,200 --> 00:07:59,920
Speaker 3: is more of a framing issue because whether you like

134
00:08:00,080 --> 00:08:03,920
Speaker 3: Donald Trump or not, and I would tell your audience,

135
00:08:03,960 --> 00:08:08,400
Speaker 3: haanity that seventy five percent of the sold out stadium

136
00:08:08,480 --> 00:08:11,000
Speaker 3: last night, it's about I guess fifty p with's thousand

137
00:08:11,080 --> 00:08:16,560
Speaker 3: people were respectful to the president in the sense that

138
00:08:17,040 --> 00:08:21,320
Speaker 3: they applauded USA. At USA USA it was nine to eleven,

139
00:08:22,200 --> 00:08:24,880
Speaker 3: about seventy five percent. The only twenty five percent. A

140
00:08:25,000 --> 00:08:28,160
Speaker 3: few booed, most didn't do anything. They just sat there

141
00:08:28,200 --> 00:08:31,280
Speaker 3: because they don't like them. New York City's a liberal city.

142
00:08:31,720 --> 00:08:34,480
Speaker 3: Nothing wrong with that as long as you're not disrespectful.

143
00:08:34,720 --> 00:08:41,160
Speaker 3: But overwhelmingly the crowd was pro Trump. That buoyed the

144
00:08:41,200 --> 00:08:44,160
Speaker 3: President's spirits. You could see it, you could feel it.

145
00:08:44,320 --> 00:08:47,079
Speaker 3: I was right next to them because in the tennis

146
00:08:47,320 --> 00:08:52,200
Speaker 3: over the weekend. It was different, different crews. Working class

147
00:08:52,200 --> 00:08:55,320
Speaker 3: people go to baseball games, Swells go to see the

148
00:08:55,360 --> 00:08:59,080
Speaker 3: tennis as well. Don't like Donald Trump generally speaking, But

149
00:08:59,160 --> 00:09:03,640
Speaker 3: in the Charlie Kirk discussion, here's what struck me. And

150
00:09:03,760 --> 00:09:09,400
Speaker 3: remember the wounds are still raw. Okay. What that means

151
00:09:09,520 --> 00:09:14,720
Speaker 3: is that if you knew Charlie Kirk, and you knew

152
00:09:14,880 --> 00:09:18,440
Speaker 3: his family situation, in particular two young children and the widow,

153
00:09:19,440 --> 00:09:23,319
Speaker 3: it's almost impossible to deal with that in a rational,

154
00:09:23,400 --> 00:09:29,360
Speaker 3: unemotional way. Emotion just overwhelms you. But the way that

155
00:09:29,440 --> 00:09:33,440
Speaker 3: Donald Trump has decided to deal with it is to

156
00:09:33,720 --> 00:09:38,160
Speaker 3: honor the memory of Charlie Kirk in the sense that

157
00:09:38,800 --> 00:09:43,320
Speaker 3: he was brave enough to exercise his freedom of speech

158
00:09:44,040 --> 00:09:47,840
Speaker 3: in what he believed, firmly believed was a positive way

159
00:09:47,920 --> 00:09:53,280
Speaker 3: for the country. That's the over arch. And so President

160
00:09:53,320 --> 00:09:56,720
Speaker 3: trumpet he attending his funeral, will be giving him the

161
00:09:56,760 --> 00:10:03,559
Speaker 3: medal okay, the highest civilian award that you can get

162
00:10:03,640 --> 00:10:06,800
Speaker 3: in this country. And Charlie Kirk will go down in

163
00:10:06,960 --> 00:10:13,040
Speaker 3: history as a martyr for free speech. And then I

164
00:10:13,080 --> 00:10:14,600
Speaker 3: said to him, and then you know what do you

165
00:10:14,600 --> 00:10:17,640
Speaker 3: you know? We were back and forth on that and

166
00:10:17,679 --> 00:10:22,040
Speaker 3: I said, the worthiness of this for history is this

167
00:10:22,200 --> 00:10:26,160
Speaker 3: could be a turning point. Pardon upon Charlie Kirk's Organization's

168
00:10:26,200 --> 00:10:30,120
Speaker 3: turning point, USA. This could be a turning point because

169
00:10:30,920 --> 00:10:35,720
Speaker 3: everyone is locked in, the apathetic, the stupid, the bitter,

170
00:10:36,480 --> 00:10:40,760
Speaker 3: everybody's locked in on this. And I believe most Americans

171
00:10:40,800 --> 00:10:43,200
Speaker 3: are good people and they're going to say, just as

172
00:10:43,240 --> 00:10:48,440
Speaker 3: we're saying, the prudent, enough of this hatred, and that

173
00:10:48,640 --> 00:10:51,080
Speaker 3: is going to be the worthiness going forward. And that

174
00:10:51,200 --> 00:10:55,040
Speaker 3: was the basis of our discussion in the box last night. Bill.

175
00:10:55,120 --> 00:10:57,320
Speaker 2: I would like to believe what you just said, that

176
00:10:57,400 --> 00:11:01,080
Speaker 2: closing statement was true. I'd like to believe that the

177
00:11:01,120 --> 00:11:05,400
Speaker 2: people that for ten years that have said, you know,

178
00:11:05,840 --> 00:11:09,120
Speaker 2: look at the closing arguments of twenty twenty four racist

179
00:11:09,200 --> 00:11:14,240
Speaker 2: Nazi Hitler Stalin Mussolini, and I've been arguing there is

180
00:11:14,280 --> 00:11:19,079
Speaker 2: a dehumanizing impact on people's minds, especially the weak minded

181
00:11:19,280 --> 00:11:22,960
Speaker 2: or the vulnerable, or the mentally ill, or people that

182
00:11:23,000 --> 00:11:27,280
Speaker 2: are kind of hanging in the balance, and they're impacted

183
00:11:27,320 --> 00:11:32,200
Speaker 2: by those words. And while we might over time, you know,

184
00:11:32,280 --> 00:11:35,080
Speaker 2: become numb to it, because we report on it and

185
00:11:35,120 --> 00:11:39,559
Speaker 2: have reported on these things now for decades, those that

186
00:11:40,200 --> 00:11:44,920
Speaker 2: have only recently, like in this case of this this kid,

187
00:11:45,480 --> 00:11:49,120
Speaker 2: you know, buying into this sick, ugly twisted ideology. You know,

188
00:11:49,280 --> 00:11:53,520
Speaker 2: you get impacted by words. There's nothing you can't. You

189
00:11:53,559 --> 00:11:58,640
Speaker 2: can't describe evil or call somebody evil in a way

190
00:11:59,200 --> 00:12:03,760
Speaker 2: that is more damaging than saying they're Hitler or Mussolini

191
00:12:04,160 --> 00:12:09,600
Speaker 2: or Stalin. You can't, and so when you dehumanize it,

192
00:12:09,600 --> 00:12:12,320
Speaker 2: it almost has a hypnotic effect, to the point where people,

193
00:12:12,880 --> 00:12:15,240
Speaker 2: you know, begin to believe that they're doing God's will.

194
00:12:15,280 --> 00:12:17,520
Speaker 2: I talked to doctor Drew about this last night. He said,

195
00:12:17,559 --> 00:12:21,239
Speaker 2: it is a very real, real syndrome.

196
00:12:21,679 --> 00:12:25,319
Speaker 3: Let's break let's break it down, because I'm a simple man. Okay,

197
00:12:26,480 --> 00:12:30,520
Speaker 3: if you are living in a home with somebody who

198
00:12:30,600 --> 00:12:36,920
Speaker 3: is happy that Charlie Kirk was assassinated, that person you

199
00:12:36,960 --> 00:12:40,680
Speaker 3: are living with is mentally ill. There's no two sides

200
00:12:40,760 --> 00:12:45,800
Speaker 3: to that. And likely the mental illness that is gripping

201
00:12:45,920 --> 00:12:49,240
Speaker 3: the person that you know is going to get worse.

202
00:12:50,280 --> 00:12:53,960
Speaker 3: So therefore there has to be some kind of an

203
00:12:54,000 --> 00:12:58,520
Speaker 3: intervention on a family basis. Can't look away anymore. You

204
00:12:58,559 --> 00:13:01,679
Speaker 3: can't say, oh, it's a fad, Oh he'll get over it.

205
00:13:01,720 --> 00:13:05,320
Speaker 3: Oh he'll grow out of it. No, you can't, because

206
00:13:05,320 --> 00:13:09,680
Speaker 3: that's so heinous. What happened is so And just consider this.

207
00:13:10,559 --> 00:13:14,280
Speaker 3: Charlie Kirk's family is destroyed, but the family of the

208
00:13:14,320 --> 00:13:20,760
Speaker 3: alleged assassin is destroyed too. How much evil is involved here? Okay,

209
00:13:21,600 --> 00:13:25,280
Speaker 3: So the guy obviously mentally ill, and that does not

210
00:13:25,360 --> 00:13:28,240
Speaker 3: give him a pass. The guy at Charlotte Bus's mentally ill,

211
00:13:28,640 --> 00:13:31,360
Speaker 3: got on the bus with a knife, sat behind a

212
00:13:31,360 --> 00:13:34,160
Speaker 3: woman and then made a decision to kill her. Yeah,

213
00:13:34,240 --> 00:13:38,760
Speaker 3: mentally ill. Okay, but evil and you have to punish evil.

214
00:13:39,240 --> 00:13:42,840
Speaker 3: That's the key. Now here's going back to President Trump.

215
00:13:43,320 --> 00:13:48,439
Speaker 3: And this is what many many people don't understand. Trump

216
00:13:49,000 --> 00:13:54,640
Speaker 3: firmly believes and always has that evil has to be punished.

217
00:13:55,240 --> 00:13:58,720
Speaker 3: He'll make a deal with it if it's better for

218
00:13:58,800 --> 00:14:06,960
Speaker 3: the United States. But in his ana is we cannot

219
00:14:07,080 --> 00:14:12,600
Speaker 3: let people hurt other people, and we cannot allow it

220
00:14:12,679 --> 00:14:14,000
Speaker 3: to go unpunished.

221
00:14:14,440 --> 00:14:16,079
Speaker 2: All right, Well, take a break, we'll come back on

222
00:14:16,120 --> 00:14:18,440
Speaker 2: the other side. Bill O'Reilly's with us. He just released

223
00:14:18,440 --> 00:14:21,680
Speaker 2: his new book. It's on Hannity dot com, Amazon dot

224
00:14:21,680 --> 00:14:26,240
Speaker 2: com bookstores around the country. It's called Confronting Evil, Assessing

225
00:14:26,280 --> 00:14:28,680
Speaker 2: the worst of the worst. We'll go through a little

226
00:14:28,680 --> 00:14:31,280
Speaker 2: bit of that list when we get back all right again,

227
00:14:31,320 --> 00:14:34,440
Speaker 2: Continuing with Bill O'Reilly's new book out this week. It's

228
00:14:34,680 --> 00:14:38,280
Speaker 2: on Hannity dot com, Amazon dot com bookstores around the country.

229
00:14:38,600 --> 00:14:42,200
Speaker 2: Confronting Evil, Assessing the worst of the worst. And we

230
00:14:42,280 --> 00:14:46,560
Speaker 2: saw evil on display this week in Utah. I want

231
00:14:46,640 --> 00:14:49,600
Speaker 2: to talk a little bit more broadly about the evil

232
00:14:49,640 --> 00:14:53,480
Speaker 2: in the world. And I don't know why. There's a

233
00:14:53,520 --> 00:14:57,080
Speaker 2: reluctance and a resistance among the left. And I am

234
00:14:57,120 --> 00:14:59,720
Speaker 2: getting a little political here, but hear me out, villain,

235
00:15:00,000 --> 00:15:02,360
Speaker 2: and then I'll give you all the time you need

236
00:15:02,400 --> 00:15:06,600
Speaker 2: to respond. You look at the issue crime. President Trump decides, okay,

237
00:15:06,600 --> 00:15:10,320
Speaker 2: the homicide rate. The US has the highest homicide rate

238
00:15:10,360 --> 00:15:12,960
Speaker 2: of any capital city in the world. He's not going

239
00:15:13,040 --> 00:15:15,760
Speaker 2: to put up with that. And lo and behold, he

240
00:15:15,840 --> 00:15:20,640
Speaker 2: cracks down on crime. Lives are being saved, and DC

241
00:15:20,880 --> 00:15:23,760
Speaker 2: is the safest it has safest it has been in decades.

242
00:15:24,440 --> 00:15:27,400
Speaker 2: And then he offers it to Chicago and the mayor,

243
00:15:27,440 --> 00:15:30,760
Speaker 2: Brandon Johnson has a meltdown, The governor has a meltdown.

244
00:15:31,200 --> 00:15:34,440
Speaker 2: Gavin Newsom has a meltdown. New York has a meltdown.

245
00:15:35,000 --> 00:15:38,800
Speaker 2: As if he's doing something horrible. And to me, the

246
00:15:39,520 --> 00:15:43,120
Speaker 2: people on the left are putting the so called rights

247
00:15:43,200 --> 00:15:47,640
Speaker 2: of criminals over the safety of their own citizens. And

248
00:15:47,680 --> 00:15:52,119
Speaker 2: then you add to that defund dismantled Nobel law madness

249
00:15:52,720 --> 00:15:56,880
Speaker 2: and reimagine the police madness, and you have nothing. But

250
00:15:57,160 --> 00:15:58,840
Speaker 2: you know, okay, what do we have the last two

251
00:15:58,880 --> 00:16:01,680
Speaker 2: weekends in Chicago out eighty people shot and about twenty

252
00:16:01,720 --> 00:16:05,160
Speaker 2: people dead. That is that is like a typical, you know,

253
00:16:05,240 --> 00:16:09,360
Speaker 2: two weekends in Chicago, and they don't seem to care.

254
00:16:09,480 --> 00:16:12,360
Speaker 2: They don't they won't take the help that's being offered. Now,

255
00:16:12,440 --> 00:16:15,960
Speaker 2: I ask you this through the prism of evil existing

256
00:16:16,680 --> 00:16:18,520
Speaker 2: because they're facilitating this.

257
00:16:19,640 --> 00:16:22,400
Speaker 1: And you mentioned that if people vote for Mom.

258
00:16:22,320 --> 00:16:26,840
Speaker 2: Donnie, that they're actually because he supports these policies that

259
00:16:26,920 --> 00:16:31,240
Speaker 2: they themselves are aiding in a betting in this this activity.

260
00:16:31,360 --> 00:16:31,760
Speaker 1: Explain.

261
00:16:32,760 --> 00:16:35,800
Speaker 3: Okay, So I think President Trump has adopted me as

262
00:16:35,840 --> 00:16:40,680
Speaker 3: his favorite historian. And the macro picture on this is

263
00:16:41,640 --> 00:16:46,920
Speaker 3: in this is the second time in modern times. All right,

264
00:16:46,960 --> 00:16:51,360
Speaker 3: So we'll go back to the turn of the twentieth century,

265
00:16:51,840 --> 00:16:55,600
Speaker 3: as far as modern times concerned, the second time that

266
00:16:55,760 --> 00:17:01,200
Speaker 3: evil has risen in the world to the heights where

267
00:17:02,040 --> 00:17:05,320
Speaker 3: danger level has been reached. The first time was in

268
00:17:05,359 --> 00:17:11,119
Speaker 3: the nineteen thirties, and that was on the right. That

269
00:17:11,280 --> 00:17:17,479
Speaker 3: was a fascist movement in Europe and Japan, and well

270
00:17:17,480 --> 00:17:17,720
Speaker 3: there was.

271
00:17:17,680 --> 00:17:20,280
Speaker 2: Also a socialist movement in some capacity. I don't want

272
00:17:20,280 --> 00:17:22,159
Speaker 2: to get into I don't want to get into a

273
00:17:22,320 --> 00:17:23,439
Speaker 2: historical argument with you.

274
00:17:23,760 --> 00:17:26,760
Speaker 3: Keep going present time, but you need to know that

275
00:17:27,119 --> 00:17:33,320
Speaker 3: what happened just briefly, so one hundred million dead after

276
00:17:33,400 --> 00:17:38,320
Speaker 3: World War Two. United States defeated evil with the help

277
00:17:38,359 --> 00:17:41,040
Speaker 3: of our allies, but it was really us that did it.

278
00:17:42,440 --> 00:17:47,600
Speaker 3: So that was the defeat of evil in the nineteen thirties.

279
00:17:47,640 --> 00:17:53,119
Speaker 3: But the way it rose was frightening. Now we see

280
00:17:53,160 --> 00:17:57,600
Speaker 3: that again, but it's on the left. It's not on

281
00:17:57,640 --> 00:18:01,040
Speaker 3: the right as it was in the nineteen thirties. And

282
00:18:01,080 --> 00:18:04,200
Speaker 3: what has happened around the world and particularly in the

283
00:18:04,320 --> 00:18:09,480
Speaker 3: United States, it is moral relativism. There is no right

284
00:18:09,520 --> 00:18:12,400
Speaker 3: and wrong, There is no good in evil. So Joe

285
00:18:12,400 --> 00:18:15,159
Speaker 3: Biden didn't get up every morning said I'm committing an

286
00:18:15,200 --> 00:18:18,479
Speaker 3: evil act by failing to enforce immigration law. That's not

287
00:18:18,520 --> 00:18:21,320
Speaker 3: what he did. And there was nobody in the White

288
00:18:21,320 --> 00:18:24,640
Speaker 3: House telling him that. No dissent he lived in a bubble.

289
00:18:24,960 --> 00:18:29,080
Speaker 3: He was barely able to function. And the people that

290
00:18:29,280 --> 00:18:32,320
Speaker 3: drove that open border policy which has led to the

291
00:18:32,440 --> 00:18:36,520
Speaker 3: deaths I would say of hundreds of thousands of Americans

292
00:18:36,560 --> 00:18:40,919
Speaker 3: because of the narcotics proponent of it, that along with

293
00:18:41,000 --> 00:18:44,359
Speaker 3: the flood of migrants, you had a record amount of

294
00:18:44,440 --> 00:18:48,920
Speaker 3: deadly narcotics flowing into this country because the Biden administration

295
00:18:49,400 --> 00:18:52,240
Speaker 3: told the border patrol to stand down. So you're talking

296
00:18:52,280 --> 00:18:56,280
Speaker 3: one hundreds of thousands of dead people partially responsible for

297
00:18:56,359 --> 00:19:00,280
Speaker 3: their own demise, but still aid it in a bed.

298
00:19:00,640 --> 00:19:03,520
Speaker 3: So the love does not see that, they will not

299
00:19:04,200 --> 00:19:08,960
Speaker 3: even recognize it. And that is the danger that we

300
00:19:09,160 --> 00:19:13,040
Speaker 3: face now. And then you go into the law enforcement

301
00:19:13,920 --> 00:19:17,399
Speaker 3: that you have major cities in this country where the

302
00:19:17,520 --> 00:19:22,320
Speaker 3: das don't want to prosecute criminals, and the statement you

303
00:19:22,440 --> 00:19:25,919
Speaker 3: referenced about Mandani and I got blowback from this, but

304
00:19:26,000 --> 00:19:29,439
Speaker 3: that's my life is I said, anybody voting for that

305
00:19:29,600 --> 00:19:34,000
Speaker 3: man for mayor is committing an evil act. You may

306
00:19:34,000 --> 00:19:39,560
Speaker 3: not be totally evil, but by giving him power, and

307
00:19:39,600 --> 00:19:43,040
Speaker 3: he has told you directly he does not want to

308
00:19:43,040 --> 00:19:46,600
Speaker 3: incrson ray criminals. He's going to cut a billion dollars

309
00:19:46,640 --> 00:19:51,000
Speaker 3: out of the NYPD budget. He believes police officers are

310
00:19:51,160 --> 00:19:55,320
Speaker 3: racist across the board. The body count is going to

311
00:19:55,400 --> 00:20:01,640
Speaker 3: triple or quadruple if that man win and you are

312
00:20:01,800 --> 00:20:06,159
Speaker 3: helping him win. What would you call vote like that?

313
00:20:07,720 --> 00:20:10,879
Speaker 3: And when I said it, you can't refute it because

314
00:20:10,920 --> 00:20:13,960
Speaker 3: Mandani himself says it. And then you go over to

315
00:20:14,040 --> 00:20:17,879
Speaker 3: Pritzker and you go over to Johnson in Chicago and

316
00:20:17,920 --> 00:20:21,840
Speaker 3: Illinois where the federal government is offering a blanket of

317
00:20:21,960 --> 00:20:26,520
Speaker 3: protection for African Americans on the South Side who are

318
00:20:26,520 --> 00:20:30,639
Speaker 3: being gunned down on a daily basis by drug gangs

319
00:20:31,680 --> 00:20:34,600
Speaker 3: and has been going on for twenty years and the

320
00:20:34,640 --> 00:20:37,280
Speaker 3: state of locals have not been able to stop it.

321
00:20:37,800 --> 00:20:42,480
Speaker 3: And finally a president says, I'll help you. And that

322
00:20:42,680 --> 00:20:47,640
Speaker 3: guy's the devil, that guy's Hitler. That's evil at an

323
00:20:47,760 --> 00:20:50,119
Speaker 3: unprecedented rhetorical level.

324
00:20:51,320 --> 00:20:55,919
Speaker 2: What you're describing, Bill is a predictable outcome.

325
00:20:55,680 --> 00:20:57,280
Speaker 1: And yet they're there.

326
00:20:57,880 --> 00:21:02,320
Speaker 2: They are leaning into these policies, you know, more heavily

327
00:21:02,440 --> 00:21:05,720
Speaker 2: every single day. Let me go back to your previous point,

328
00:21:05,800 --> 00:21:09,080
Speaker 2: because it's something that I assessed in my book in

329
00:21:09,080 --> 00:21:11,680
Speaker 2: two thousand and four, and that is, you know, the

330
00:21:11,760 --> 00:21:15,600
Speaker 2: last century alone, if you look at Mao and China

331
00:21:15,640 --> 00:21:19,920
Speaker 2: and Stalin and Russia and Hitler and Germany and Mussolini

332
00:21:19,960 --> 00:21:25,400
Speaker 2: and Tojo. We lost over one hundred million people, one

333
00:21:25,440 --> 00:21:31,040
Speaker 2: hundred million souls. And I argued at the time, and

334
00:21:31,119 --> 00:21:35,640
Speaker 2: I argue today, that it is very hard for good people,

335
00:21:35,760 --> 00:21:39,200
Speaker 2: or reasonably good people, or people that desire to be good,

336
00:21:39,520 --> 00:21:42,760
Speaker 2: people that have a heart, conscience and soul, to wrap

337
00:21:42,840 --> 00:21:48,120
Speaker 2: their minds around the fact that evil does exist. And

338
00:21:48,400 --> 00:21:52,920
Speaker 2: if you're allowing unvetted illegals into this country, you're putting

339
00:21:52,920 --> 00:21:57,000
Speaker 2: Americans in danger. If you buy into defund, dismantle no

340
00:21:57,119 --> 00:22:00,800
Speaker 2: BAI laws, reimagine the police, you are opening the door

341
00:22:00,880 --> 00:22:04,600
Speaker 2: to evil and danger. And in that sense, there is

342
00:22:04,760 --> 00:22:09,320
Speaker 2: either a fundamental level of ignorance that is spectacular to

343
00:22:09,359 --> 00:22:13,320
Speaker 2: me because it's common sense, or there are other motives

344
00:22:13,359 --> 00:22:16,560
Speaker 2: that I don't know what they could be about, but

345
00:22:16,560 --> 00:22:20,639
Speaker 2: there's got to be something. The evidence, you know, is

346
00:22:21,160 --> 00:22:26,479
Speaker 2: is that great and understanding this is critical? You know,

347
00:22:26,560 --> 00:22:32,240
Speaker 2: the subtitle of my book Deliverers from Eva was Defeating terrorism, despotism,

348
00:22:32,880 --> 00:22:37,439
Speaker 2: and Liberalism. Now I got I got criticized for putting

349
00:22:37,440 --> 00:22:39,480
Speaker 2: in liberalism and what did I mean by that?

350
00:22:39,560 --> 00:22:41,200
Speaker 1: I meant that we have.

351
00:22:41,119 --> 00:22:45,360
Speaker 2: To win the political narrative if we're going to stop

352
00:22:45,920 --> 00:22:49,440
Speaker 2: the evil that we know exists that maybe a lot

353
00:22:49,480 --> 00:22:51,120
Speaker 2: of people don't want to focus on.

354
00:22:52,480 --> 00:22:54,879
Speaker 3: You're not going to stop it, but you can mitigate it.

355
00:22:55,480 --> 00:22:58,159
Speaker 3: And that's what I'm going to make a prediction about

356
00:22:58,240 --> 00:23:03,359
Speaker 3: right now. Nation of Charlie Kirk is going to lead

357
00:23:03,600 --> 00:23:08,320
Speaker 3: to the weakening of evil in the left wing precincts.

358
00:23:08,920 --> 00:23:11,240
Speaker 3: It's going to be much harder for those people to

359
00:23:11,359 --> 00:23:18,040
Speaker 3: pedal this dangerous philosophy now after Charlie Kirk was assassinated

360
00:23:18,119 --> 00:23:22,000
Speaker 3: than it was last week, because the people who aren't

361
00:23:22,040 --> 00:23:27,280
Speaker 3: ideological are paying attention. Finally, they're putting their cell phones down, Finally,

362
00:23:28,920 --> 00:23:33,920
Speaker 3: they're watching Fox News or News Nation, whatever it may be, finally,

363
00:23:35,080 --> 00:23:37,399
Speaker 3: and they're making judgments. You have to be able to

364
00:23:37,440 --> 00:23:39,600
Speaker 3: make a judgment on this. You can't walk away and

365
00:23:39,680 --> 00:23:43,360
Speaker 3: not make a judgment about Charlie Kirk and the nuts

366
00:23:43,359 --> 00:23:46,919
Speaker 3: and loons who are public and have said, oh, he

367
00:23:47,000 --> 00:23:51,359
Speaker 3: deserved it, like the dowed guy on MSNBC. Anybody shocked

368
00:23:51,400 --> 00:23:57,240
Speaker 3: about MSNBC now, Stephen King, he's been a loon from

369
00:23:57,320 --> 00:24:00,840
Speaker 3: day one. Okay, these people are now on the run.

370
00:24:01,280 --> 00:24:05,200
Speaker 3: They have to apologize. Dowd was fired. Even the women

371
00:24:05,280 --> 00:24:09,080
Speaker 3: on the View as hypocritical as you could possibly get. Oh,

372
00:24:09,119 --> 00:24:12,160
Speaker 3: they're lamenting the death of Charlie Kirk. Did you ever

373
00:24:12,200 --> 00:24:16,480
Speaker 3: invite them on your program? No? Did you ever say

374
00:24:16,480 --> 00:24:20,919
Speaker 3: a kind word about the people that Charlie Kirk represented? Know?

375
00:24:22,400 --> 00:24:25,359
Speaker 3: And now you're all because Disney ordered him to do that.

376
00:24:26,320 --> 00:24:30,119
Speaker 3: Disney actually told the producer of the View, do not

377
00:24:30,560 --> 00:24:35,399
Speaker 3: allow these five women to say anything bad about Charlie Kirk.

378
00:24:36,040 --> 00:24:41,480
Speaker 3: And I know that to be true. So out of tragedy,

379
00:24:42,240 --> 00:24:47,639
Speaker 3: out of evil, if you can mitigated or defeated, sometimes

380
00:24:47,720 --> 00:24:52,840
Speaker 3: emerges good. And I think that Charlie Kirk gave his

381
00:24:53,040 --> 00:24:58,480
Speaker 3: life for his cause, never knowing that obviously this was

382
00:24:58,560 --> 00:25:02,880
Speaker 3: going to happen. Okay, but what is the tied I

383
00:25:03,080 --> 00:25:09,960
Speaker 3: see it beginning to turn against the Pritzkers and the Newsoms.

384
00:25:10,320 --> 00:25:16,320
Speaker 3: The mandanis the Shumers. It's turning against them. And I

385
00:25:16,400 --> 00:25:19,560
Speaker 3: told that to President Trump last night. I shaill you

386
00:25:19,880 --> 00:25:25,320
Speaker 3: be the voice of reason, you say no violence, you

387
00:25:25,440 --> 00:25:29,679
Speaker 3: tamp it down, You lead that movement, because that is

388
00:25:29,720 --> 00:25:31,679
Speaker 3: what the country needs right now.

389
00:25:31,960 --> 00:25:34,400

407
00:26:38,480 --> 00:26:41,240

00:26:41,280 --> 00:26:43,359
Speaker 2: most serious book you've written, and you've written a lot

409
00:26:43,400 --> 00:26:47,000
Speaker 2: of them, and I think that there's a message here

410
00:26:47,560 --> 00:26:50,119
Speaker 2: at a very critical time. This is a this is

411
00:26:50,720 --> 00:26:53,160

427

Speaker 1: It's such a bill. He was a champion. He was

430
00:27:40,800 --> 00:27:43,320
Speaker 2: Walk into these college campuses, tell me where I'm wrong,

431
00:27:43,840 --> 00:27:47,960
