WEBVTT - Confronting Evil - September 12th, Hour 2

0:00:00.040 --> 0:00:01.560
<v Speaker 1>All right, Leonard Skinner's simple man.

0:00:01.560 --> 0:00:04.280
<v Speaker 2>That can only mean one thing on this radio program,

0:00:04.280 --> 0:00:07.200
<v Speaker 2>and that is all things self described simple man. That

0:00:07.280 --> 0:00:10.840
<v Speaker 2>means all things Bill O'Reilly, all things Bill O'Reilly, Bill

0:00:10.840 --> 0:00:14.800
<v Speaker 2>O'Reilly dot Com. I just want to make note of

0:00:15.000 --> 0:00:19.200
<v Speaker 2>a fact. Bill and I we have very different schedules,

0:00:19.960 --> 0:00:23.680
<v Speaker 2>and sometimes it's hard for Bill and I, you know,

0:00:23.840 --> 0:00:26.880
<v Speaker 2>to go live. And he has a phenomenal book out

0:00:27.400 --> 0:00:30.360
<v Speaker 2>and I read it cover to cover and he's written

0:00:30.600 --> 0:00:33.600
<v Speaker 2>one thousand number one New York Times bestselling books nineteen

0:00:33.640 --> 0:00:36.479
<v Speaker 2>to be very specific, and I know they hate it

0:00:36.520 --> 0:00:38.080
<v Speaker 2>every time they have to put his name at the

0:00:38.080 --> 0:00:41.159
<v Speaker 2>top of the list, but this one really got my

0:00:41.280 --> 0:00:44.479
<v Speaker 2>attention and I couldn't put the book down. And it's

0:00:44.560 --> 0:00:47.760
<v Speaker 2>ripped out of the headlines of Today. And we did

0:00:47.800 --> 0:00:50.800
<v Speaker 2>an interview that I think maybe was the best interaction

0:00:50.920 --> 0:00:55.000
<v Speaker 2>we had had together, and it was supposed to air,

0:00:55.400 --> 0:00:59.639
<v Speaker 2>and then Charlie Kirk got assassinated. By the way, we're

0:00:59.640 --> 0:01:03.160
<v Speaker 2>gonna put that whole interview again, I don't want to

0:01:03.200 --> 0:01:04.880
<v Speaker 2>take it out of context. This is why I'm bringing

0:01:04.920 --> 0:01:10.039
<v Speaker 2>Bill back Today Live because it is worth listening to.

0:01:10.160 --> 0:01:12.959
<v Speaker 2>It's gonna it's gonna it's up on Hannity dot Com.

0:01:13.360 --> 0:01:17.560
<v Speaker 2>He wrote a book Confronting Evil, Assessing the worst of

0:01:17.600 --> 0:01:20.600
<v Speaker 2>the Worst. I had written a book about evil back

0:01:20.600 --> 0:01:23.039
<v Speaker 2>in two thousand and for a very different book, but

0:01:23.480 --> 0:01:25.400
<v Speaker 2>it starts out I had on page one, I put

0:01:25.440 --> 0:01:29.200
<v Speaker 2>in there the Lord's for prayer, lead us not into temptation,

0:01:29.319 --> 0:01:32.840
<v Speaker 2>but deliver us from evil. And I've often made the

0:01:32.840 --> 0:01:36.319
<v Speaker 2>case that it is very hard for good people or

0:01:36.560 --> 0:01:39.280
<v Speaker 2>or people that mostly want to be good but are imperfect,

0:01:39.319 --> 0:01:42.440
<v Speaker 2>that are weak, and that we have our flaws, and

0:01:42.480 --> 0:01:44.560
<v Speaker 2>that we're all sinners and we've all sinned them fall

0:01:44.600 --> 0:01:47.240
<v Speaker 2>in short of the glory of God, which is the

0:01:47.600 --> 0:01:49.360
<v Speaker 2>whole Christian message of salvation.

0:01:50.560 --> 0:01:53.680
<v Speaker 1>And it just it hits home.

0:01:54.040 --> 0:01:58.800
<v Speaker 2>What happened this week, as hard and as painful as

0:01:58.840 --> 0:02:01.080
<v Speaker 2>it has been for all of view, and for me

0:02:01.600 --> 0:02:06.080
<v Speaker 2>and for Bill and for everybody, was evil. Now he's

0:02:06.120 --> 0:02:08.600
<v Speaker 2>talking more on a macro level, but it happens on

0:02:08.639 --> 0:02:11.240
<v Speaker 2>a micro level as well. I mean, if you hurt

0:02:11.280 --> 0:02:16.280
<v Speaker 2>a child, you are an evil human being. If you kill, assassinate,

0:02:17.000 --> 0:02:21.760
<v Speaker 2>you know, a cheerful, you know individual who says, tell

0:02:21.800 --> 0:02:25.760
<v Speaker 2>me where I'm wrong and goes into a hostile environment

0:02:25.880 --> 0:02:28.760
<v Speaker 2>of liberal and doctrination, like Charlie Kirk did, that's evil.

0:02:29.840 --> 0:02:34.160
<v Speaker 2>We're dealing with evil monsters on the world stage. President Chi,

0:02:34.560 --> 0:02:39.040
<v Speaker 2>Kim jong Un, Vladimir Putin, Ayatolaholmeni, you know back in

0:02:39.080 --> 0:02:42.480
<v Speaker 2>the day. Now we have the supreme leader. And Bill

0:02:42.600 --> 0:02:47.040
<v Speaker 2>captures this and makes you think in a way that

0:02:47.040 --> 0:02:51.200
<v Speaker 2>that you really you need to do a deep dive

0:02:51.280 --> 0:02:54.919
<v Speaker 2>into anyway, the book is on Hannity dot Com. As

0:02:54.919 --> 0:02:58.080
<v Speaker 2>I said, Amazon dot com, bookstores around the country, and

0:02:58.160 --> 0:03:00.359
<v Speaker 2>the other hour that we did, this will be a

0:03:00.440 --> 0:03:04.200
<v Speaker 2>very different hour we are putting on Hannity dot Com.

0:03:04.200 --> 0:03:06.880
<v Speaker 2>Mister O'Reilly start, thanks for coming back. I appreciate it.

0:03:07.320 --> 0:03:09.639
<v Speaker 2>But I really was moved by the book. I did

0:03:09.680 --> 0:03:13.119
<v Speaker 2>read a cover to cover, and it is in light

0:03:13.160 --> 0:03:16.600
<v Speaker 2>of everything that happened since we spoke earlier this week,

0:03:17.720 --> 0:03:20.040
<v Speaker 2>I think it takes on a whole new context.

0:03:20.440 --> 0:03:24.600
<v Speaker 3>Well, I did an interview earlier and the interview person

0:03:24.680 --> 0:03:29.120
<v Speaker 3>said to me, it's a haunting situation that your book

0:03:29.160 --> 0:03:32.280
<v Speaker 3>and Fronting Evil comes out on Tuesday and the very

0:03:32.320 --> 0:03:37.440
<v Speaker 3>next day putin lobs missiles into Poland and a few

0:03:37.440 --> 0:03:42.800
<v Speaker 3>hours later, Charlie Kirk is shot to death. I'm glad

0:03:42.840 --> 0:03:45.840
<v Speaker 3>we're doing this hour. It's an important hour. If you're

0:03:45.920 --> 0:03:49.400
<v Speaker 3>riding in the car anywhere in the United States, keep riding,

0:03:49.760 --> 0:03:52.120
<v Speaker 3>don't park and get out, you're going to want to

0:03:52.160 --> 0:03:54.440
<v Speaker 3>hear this whole hour. The first thing I'd like to do,

0:03:54.600 --> 0:03:57.800
<v Speaker 3>with your permission, because it's your show, Hannity, is to

0:03:57.880 --> 0:04:01.120
<v Speaker 3>report on what happened last night with President Trump and

0:04:01.200 --> 0:04:03.000
<v Speaker 3>me at Yankee Stadium. Would that be all right?

0:04:03.680 --> 0:04:05.240
<v Speaker 1>Yeah? Please? I knew you were there.

0:04:06.000 --> 0:04:09.400
<v Speaker 3>So I got a call late on Wednesday night, on

0:04:09.480 --> 0:04:16.000
<v Speaker 3>my birthday, from President Trump's top assistant, and he said,

0:04:16.200 --> 0:04:20.440
<v Speaker 3>she said, can you go to Yankee Stadium and watch

0:04:20.440 --> 0:04:24.039
<v Speaker 3>the game with the President? Now? What are you gonna say? No?

0:04:24.839 --> 0:04:28.760
<v Speaker 3>You know you have And I was pleased to go,

0:04:30.080 --> 0:04:34.000
<v Speaker 3>so I said, certainly. And I had no idea about

0:04:34.120 --> 0:04:36.360
<v Speaker 3>what the structure was going to be or anything like that.

0:04:36.400 --> 0:04:37.960
<v Speaker 3>I knew it was going to be in the steinbern

0:04:38.000 --> 0:04:41.120
<v Speaker 3>A box at the Yankee Stadium. That's the secure box,

0:04:41.640 --> 0:04:46.760
<v Speaker 3>but that's all I knew. And then subsequently we gathered

0:04:46.760 --> 0:04:49.880
<v Speaker 3>information it was going to be a big entourage. There

0:04:50.000 --> 0:04:52.800
<v Speaker 3>a lot of people in the Trump administration, all the

0:04:52.880 --> 0:04:56.520
<v Speaker 3>Republican Congress people, in New York, you know, Big Big

0:04:56.560 --> 0:04:59.080
<v Speaker 3>and all the Yankee people and the Steinbrand people. So

0:04:59.120 --> 0:05:02.800
<v Speaker 3>I got into the box and my little nameplate is

0:05:03.400 --> 0:05:08.240
<v Speaker 3>right next to President Trump, So Randy Levine and President

0:05:08.360 --> 0:05:10.719
<v Speaker 3>Yankees on one side, I'm on the other side of him.

0:05:11.279 --> 0:05:15.440
<v Speaker 3>Then I knew that this was serious, okay, And I

0:05:15.520 --> 0:05:19.080
<v Speaker 3>kind of knew that anyway, because President Trump was shaken

0:05:19.200 --> 0:05:23.840
<v Speaker 3>by the assassination of Charlie Kirk. And shaken, I mean,

0:05:23.880 --> 0:05:27.359
<v Speaker 3>he's not a man that shows emotion, as you know,

0:05:27.520 --> 0:05:30.240
<v Speaker 3>you know him very well. He is a show outward emotion.

0:05:30.960 --> 0:05:36.440
<v Speaker 3>But he knew Charlie and they were friends. And you know,

0:05:36.480 --> 0:05:39.760
<v Speaker 3>when you lose a friend suddenly like that and I have,

0:05:40.800 --> 0:05:46.280
<v Speaker 3>you know, it takes you a while to process it.

0:05:46.960 --> 0:05:51.200
<v Speaker 3>So anyway, throughout the game, there were two topics of conversation.

0:05:52.279 --> 0:05:56.560
<v Speaker 3>One was Charlie Kirk and the other was Evil Puttin.

0:05:57.800 --> 0:06:01.200
<v Speaker 3>So I can't report, you know, because the these conversations

0:06:01.200 --> 0:06:04.479
<v Speaker 3>are private. Nobody in the box could really hear what

0:06:04.600 --> 0:06:07.560
<v Speaker 3>the President and I were saying. Uh, And I can't

0:06:07.560 --> 0:06:10.840
<v Speaker 3>really tell the country, you know, but I can give

0:06:10.839 --> 0:06:15.880
<v Speaker 3>you an outline of it because he's aware. President Trump's

0:06:15.880 --> 0:06:17.839
<v Speaker 3>aware of confronting evil. In fact, I gave him a

0:06:17.880 --> 0:06:20.080
<v Speaker 3>copy and he says, I'm going to start to read

0:06:20.120 --> 0:06:25.440
<v Speaker 3>this tonight, And it was critical mass has been reached

0:06:25.480 --> 0:06:29.760
<v Speaker 3>with bad lad When when you're shooting missiles into a

0:06:29.839 --> 0:06:35.760
<v Speaker 3>NATO nation, that's enough, And it's as simple as that,

0:06:35.760 --> 0:06:41.320
<v Speaker 3>that's enough. So we discussed what the United States and

0:06:41.400 --> 0:06:43.840
<v Speaker 3>NATO have to do, and I believe President Trump is

0:06:43.880 --> 0:06:45.920
<v Speaker 3>going to do that fairly soon.

0:06:47.640 --> 0:06:50.719
<v Speaker 2>Well, I've had the same conversations all week with the

0:06:50.760 --> 0:06:53.560
<v Speaker 2>President off the record, and I'm not going to reveal them,

0:06:53.600 --> 0:06:55.880
<v Speaker 2>like you're not going to reveal them. And yeah, he

0:06:56.080 --> 0:07:00.560
<v Speaker 2>was friends with Charlie, right, and he's very aware of

0:07:00.560 --> 0:07:03.920
<v Speaker 2>of Putin. He gave him every opportunity, But he also

0:07:04.040 --> 0:07:07.960
<v Speaker 2>gave a Ran every opportunity to Bill. Now, but this

0:07:08.160 --> 0:07:11.840
<v Speaker 2>is a nuclear armed nation. It's a very different situation, right,

0:07:12.000 --> 0:07:12.760
<v Speaker 2>So you and I and.

0:07:12.800 --> 0:07:14.360
<v Speaker 3>I was just going to say that you and I

0:07:14.400 --> 0:07:17.880
<v Speaker 3>aren't getting the same information from the most powerful man

0:07:17.920 --> 0:07:21.800
<v Speaker 3>in the world, the rial card on Putin. It's not

0:07:21.880 --> 0:07:24.200
<v Speaker 3>like Iran. So you can go and you can bomb

0:07:24.280 --> 0:07:26.960
<v Speaker 3>r On. They can't do anything about it. But Putin

0:07:27.200 --> 0:07:30.120
<v Speaker 3>would use nuclear weapons. And after you read my book,

0:07:30.880 --> 0:07:33.440
<v Speaker 3>you'll see why, because he's not the same man that

0:07:33.520 --> 0:07:38.720
<v Speaker 3>he was in the first Trump administration. Evil always deteriorates,

0:07:38.920 --> 0:07:42.880
<v Speaker 3>it never gets better, and that is what has happened

0:07:43.040 --> 0:07:46.880
<v Speaker 3>to putin now, all right, So it has to be

0:07:47.000 --> 0:07:49.640
<v Speaker 3>very deliberate, it has to be very surgical. But the

0:07:49.680 --> 0:07:52.480
<v Speaker 3>message has to be sent to him in the world enough.

0:07:53.240 --> 0:07:56.160
<v Speaker 3>And then it was on to Charlie Kirk. And this

0:07:56.200 --> 0:07:59.920
<v Speaker 3>is more of a framing issue because whether you like

0:08:00.080 --> 0:08:03.920
<v Speaker 3>Donald Trump or not, and I would tell your audience,

0:08:03.960 --> 0:08:08.400
<v Speaker 3>haanity that seventy five percent of the sold out stadium

0:08:08.480 --> 0:08:11.000
<v Speaker 3>last night, it's about I guess fifty p with's thousand

0:08:11.080 --> 0:08:16.560
<v Speaker 3>people were respectful to the president in the sense that

0:08:17.040 --> 0:08:21.320
<v Speaker 3>they applauded USA. At USA USA it was nine to eleven,

0:08:22.200 --> 0:08:24.880
<v Speaker 3>about seventy five percent. The only twenty five percent. A

0:08:25.000 --> 0:08:28.160
<v Speaker 3>few booed, most didn't do anything. They just sat there

0:08:28.200 --> 0:08:31.280
<v Speaker 3>because they don't like them. New York City's a liberal city.

0:08:31.720 --> 0:08:34.480
<v Speaker 3>Nothing wrong with that as long as you're not disrespectful.

0:08:34.720 --> 0:08:41.160
<v Speaker 3>But overwhelmingly the crowd was pro Trump. That buoyed the

0:08:41.200 --> 0:08:44.160
<v Speaker 3>President's spirits. You could see it, you could feel it.

0:08:44.320 --> 0:08:47.079
<v Speaker 3>I was right next to them because in the tennis

0:08:47.320 --> 0:08:52.200
<v Speaker 3>over the weekend. It was different, different crews. Working class

0:08:52.200 --> 0:08:55.320
<v Speaker 3>people go to baseball games, Swells go to see the

0:08:55.360 --> 0:08:59.080
<v Speaker 3>tennis as well. Don't like Donald Trump generally speaking, But

0:08:59.160 --> 0:09:03.640
<v Speaker 3>in the Charlie Kirk discussion, here's what struck me. And

0:09:03.760 --> 0:09:09.400
<v Speaker 3>remember the wounds are still raw. Okay. What that means

0:09:09.520 --> 0:09:14.720
<v Speaker 3>is that if you knew Charlie Kirk, and you knew

0:09:14.880 --> 0:09:18.440
<v Speaker 3>his family situation, in particular two young children and the widow,

0:09:19.440 --> 0:09:23.319
<v Speaker 3>it's almost impossible to deal with that in a rational,

0:09:23.400 --> 0:09:29.360
<v Speaker 3>unemotional way. Emotion just overwhelms you. But the way that

0:09:29.440 --> 0:09:33.440
<v Speaker 3>Donald Trump has decided to deal with it is to

0:09:33.720 --> 0:09:38.160
<v Speaker 3>honor the memory of Charlie Kirk in the sense that

0:09:38.800 --> 0:09:43.320
<v Speaker 3>he was brave enough to exercise his freedom of speech

0:09:44.040 --> 0:09:47.840
<v Speaker 3>in what he believed, firmly believed was a positive way

0:09:47.920 --> 0:09:53.280
<v Speaker 3>for the country. That's the over arch. And so President

0:09:53.320 --> 0:09:56.720
<v Speaker 3>trumpet he attending his funeral, will be giving him the

0:09:56.760 --> 0:10:03.559
<v Speaker 3>medal okay, the highest civilian award that you can get

0:10:03.640 --> 0:10:06.800
<v Speaker 3>in this country. And Charlie Kirk will go down in

0:10:06.960 --> 0:10:13.040
<v Speaker 3>history as a martyr for free speech. And then I

0:10:13.080 --> 0:10:14.600
<v Speaker 3>said to him, and then you know what do you

0:10:14.600 --> 0:10:17.640
<v Speaker 3>you know? We were back and forth on that and

0:10:17.679 --> 0:10:22.040
<v Speaker 3>I said, the worthiness of this for history is this

0:10:22.200 --> 0:10:26.160
<v Speaker 3>could be a turning point. Pardon upon Charlie Kirk's Organization's

0:10:26.200 --> 0:10:30.120
<v Speaker 3>turning point, USA. This could be a turning point because

0:10:30.920 --> 0:10:35.720
<v Speaker 3>everyone is locked in, the apathetic, the stupid, the bitter,

0:10:36.480 --> 0:10:40.760
<v Speaker 3>everybody's locked in on this. And I believe most Americans

0:10:40.800 --> 0:10:43.200
<v Speaker 3>are good people and they're going to say, just as

0:10:43.240 --> 0:10:48.440
<v Speaker 3>we're saying, the prudent, enough of this hatred, and that

0:10:48.640 --> 0:10:51.080
<v Speaker 3>is going to be the worthiness going forward. And that

0:10:51.200 --> 0:10:55.040
<v Speaker 3>was the basis of our discussion in the box last night. Bill.

0:10:55.120 --> 0:10:57.320
<v Speaker 2>I would like to believe what you just said, that

0:10:57.400 --> 0:11:01.080
<v Speaker 2>closing statement was true. I'd like to believe that the

0:11:01.120 --> 0:11:05.400
<v Speaker 2>people that for ten years that have said, you know,

0:11:05.840 --> 0:11:09.120
<v Speaker 2>look at the closing arguments of twenty twenty four racist

0:11:09.200 --> 0:11:14.240
<v Speaker 2>Nazi Hitler Stalin Mussolini, and I've been arguing there is

0:11:14.280 --> 0:11:19.079
<v Speaker 2>a dehumanizing impact on people's minds, especially the weak minded

0:11:19.280 --> 0:11:22.960
<v Speaker 2>or the vulnerable, or the mentally ill, or people that

0:11:23.000 --> 0:11:27.280
<v Speaker 2>are kind of hanging in the balance, and they're impacted

0:11:27.320 --> 0:11:32.200
<v Speaker 2>by those words. And while we might over time, you know,

0:11:32.280 --> 0:11:35.080
<v Speaker 2>become numb to it, because we report on it and

0:11:35.120 --> 0:11:39.559
<v Speaker 2>have reported on these things now for decades, those that

0:11:40.200 --> 0:11:44.920
<v Speaker 2>have only recently, like in this case of this this kid,

0:11:45.480 --> 0:11:49.120
<v Speaker 2>you know, buying into this sick, ugly twisted ideology. You know,

0:11:49.280 --> 0:11:53.520
<v Speaker 2>you get impacted by words. There's nothing you can't. You

0:11:53.559 --> 0:11:58.640
<v Speaker 2>can't describe evil or call somebody evil in a way

0:11:59.200 --> 0:12:03.760
<v Speaker 2>that is more damaging than saying they're Hitler or Mussolini

0:12:04.160 --> 0:12:09.600
<v Speaker 2>or Stalin. You can't, and so when you dehumanize it,

0:12:09.600 --> 0:12:12.320
<v Speaker 2>it almost has a hypnotic effect, to the point where people,

0:12:12.880 --> 0:12:15.240
<v Speaker 2>you know, begin to believe that they're doing God's will.

0:12:15.280 --> 0:12:17.520
<v Speaker 2>I talked to doctor Drew about this last night. He said,

0:12:17.559 --> 0:12:21.239
<v Speaker 2>it is a very real, real syndrome.

0:12:21.679 --> 0:12:25.319
<v Speaker 3>Let's break let's break it down, because I'm a simple man. Okay,

0:12:26.480 --> 0:12:30.520
<v Speaker 3>if you are living in a home with somebody who

0:12:30.600 --> 0:12:36.920
<v Speaker 3>is happy that Charlie Kirk was assassinated, that person you

0:12:36.960 --> 0:12:40.680
<v Speaker 3>are living with is mentally ill. There's no two sides

0:12:40.760 --> 0:12:45.800
<v Speaker 3>to that. And likely the mental illness that is gripping

0:12:45.920 --> 0:12:49.240
<v Speaker 3>the person that you know is going to get worse.

0:12:50.280 --> 0:12:53.960
<v Speaker 3>So therefore there has to be some kind of an

0:12:54.000 --> 0:12:58.520
<v Speaker 3>intervention on a family basis. Can't look away anymore. You

0:12:58.559 --> 0:13:01.679
<v Speaker 3>can't say, oh, it's a fad, Oh he'll get over it.

0:13:01.720 --> 0:13:05.320
<v Speaker 3>Oh he'll grow out of it. No, you can't, because

0:13:05.320 --> 0:13:09.680
<v Speaker 3>that's so heinous. What happened is so And just consider this.

0:13:10.559 --> 0:13:14.280
<v Speaker 3>Charlie Kirk's family is destroyed, but the family of the

0:13:14.320 --> 0:13:20.760
<v Speaker 3>alleged assassin is destroyed too. How much evil is involved here? Okay,

0:13:21.600 --> 0:13:25.280
<v Speaker 3>So the guy obviously mentally ill, and that does not

0:13:25.360 --> 0:13:28.240
<v Speaker 3>give him a pass. The guy at Charlotte Bus's mentally ill,

0:13:28.640 --> 0:13:31.360
<v Speaker 3>got on the bus with a knife, sat behind a

0:13:31.360 --> 0:13:34.160
<v Speaker 3>woman and then made a decision to kill her. Yeah,

0:13:34.240 --> 0:13:38.760
<v Speaker 3>mentally ill. Okay, but evil and you have to punish evil.

0:13:39.240 --> 0:13:42.840
<v Speaker 3>That's the key. Now here's going back to President Trump.

0:13:43.320 --> 0:13:48.439
<v Speaker 3>And this is what many many people don't understand. Trump

0:13:49.000 --> 0:13:54.640
<v Speaker 3>firmly believes and always has that evil has to be punished.

0:13:55.240 --> 0:13:58.720
<v Speaker 3>He'll make a deal with it if it's better for

0:13:58.800 --> 0:14:06.960
<v Speaker 3>the United States. But in his ana is we cannot

0:14:07.080 --> 0:14:12.600
<v Speaker 3>let people hurt other people, and we cannot allow it

0:14:12.679 --> 0:14:14.000
<v Speaker 3>to go unpunished.

0:14:14.440 --> 0:14:16.079
<v Speaker 2>All right, Well, take a break, we'll come back on

0:14:16.120 --> 0:14:18.440
<v Speaker 2>the other side. Bill O'Reilly's with us. He just released

0:14:18.440 --> 0:14:21.680
<v Speaker 2>his new book. It's on Hannity dot com, Amazon dot

0:14:21.680 --> 0:14:26.240
<v Speaker 2>com bookstores around the country. It's called Confronting Evil, Assessing

0:14:26.280 --> 0:14:28.680
<v Speaker 2>the worst of the worst. We'll go through a little

0:14:28.680 --> 0:14:31.280
<v Speaker 2>bit of that list when we get back all right again,

0:14:31.320 --> 0:14:34.440
<v Speaker 2>Continuing with Bill O'Reilly's new book out this week. It's

0:14:34.680 --> 0:14:38.280
<v Speaker 2>on Hannity dot com, Amazon dot com bookstores around the country.

0:14:38.600 --> 0:14:42.200
<v Speaker 2>Confronting Evil, Assessing the worst of the worst. And we

0:14:42.280 --> 0:14:46.560
<v Speaker 2>saw evil on display this week in Utah. I want

0:14:46.640 --> 0:14:49.600
<v Speaker 2>to talk a little bit more broadly about the evil

0:14:49.640 --> 0:14:53.480
<v Speaker 2>in the world. And I don't know why. There's a

0:14:53.520 --> 0:14:57.080
<v Speaker 2>reluctance and a resistance among the left. And I am

0:14:57.120 --> 0:14:59.720
<v Speaker 2>getting a little political here, but hear me out, villain,

0:15:00.000 --> 0:15:02.360
<v Speaker 2>and then I'll give you all the time you need

0:15:02.400 --> 0:15:06.600
<v Speaker 2>to respond. You look at the issue crime. President Trump decides, okay,

0:15:06.600 --> 0:15:10.320
<v Speaker 2>the homicide rate. The US has the highest homicide rate

0:15:10.360 --> 0:15:12.960
<v Speaker 2>of any capital city in the world. He's not going

0:15:13.040 --> 0:15:15.760
<v Speaker 2>to put up with that. And lo and behold, he

0:15:15.840 --> 0:15:20.640
<v Speaker 2>cracks down on crime. Lives are being saved, and DC

0:15:20.880 --> 0:15:23.760
<v Speaker 2>is the safest it has safest it has been in decades.

0:15:24.440 --> 0:15:27.400
<v Speaker 2>And then he offers it to Chicago and the mayor,

0:15:27.440 --> 0:15:30.760
<v Speaker 2>Brandon Johnson has a meltdown, The governor has a meltdown.

0:15:31.200 --> 0:15:34.440
<v Speaker 2>Gavin Newsom has a meltdown. New York has a meltdown.

0:15:35.000 --> 0:15:38.800
<v Speaker 2>As if he's doing something horrible. And to me, the

0:15:39.520 --> 0:15:43.120
<v Speaker 2>people on the left are putting the so called rights

0:15:43.200 --> 0:15:47.640
<v Speaker 2>of criminals over the safety of their own citizens. And

0:15:47.680 --> 0:15:52.119
<v Speaker 2>then you add to that defund dismantled Nobel law madness

0:15:52.720 --> 0:15:56.880
<v Speaker 2>and reimagine the police madness, and you have nothing. But

0:15:57.160 --> 0:15:58.840
<v Speaker 2>you know, okay, what do we have the last two

0:15:58.880 --> 0:16:01.680
<v Speaker 2>weekends in Chicago out eighty people shot and about twenty

0:16:01.720 --> 0:16:05.160
<v Speaker 2>people dead. That is that is like a typical, you know,

0:16:05.240 --> 0:16:09.360
<v Speaker 2>two weekends in Chicago, and they don't seem to care.

0:16:09.480 --> 0:16:12.360
<v Speaker 2>They don't they won't take the help that's being offered. Now,

0:16:12.440 --> 0:16:15.960
<v Speaker 2>I ask you this through the prism of evil existing

0:16:16.680 --> 0:16:18.520
<v Speaker 2>because they're facilitating this.

0:16:19.640 --> 0:16:22.400
<v Speaker 1>And you mentioned that if people vote for Mom.

0:16:22.320 --> 0:16:26.840
<v Speaker 2>Donnie, that they're actually because he supports these policies that

0:16:26.920 --> 0:16:31.240
<v Speaker 2>they themselves are aiding in a betting in this this activity.

0:16:31.360 --> 0:16:31.760
<v Speaker 1>Explain.

0:16:32.760 --> 0:16:35.800
<v Speaker 3>Okay, So I think President Trump has adopted me as

0:16:35.840 --> 0:16:40.680
<v Speaker 3>his favorite historian. And the macro picture on this is

0:16:41.640 --> 0:16:46.920
<v Speaker 3>in this is the second time in modern times. All right,

0:16:46.960 --> 0:16:51.360
<v Speaker 3>So we'll go back to the turn of the twentieth century,

0:16:51.840 --> 0:16:55.600
<v Speaker 3>as far as modern times concerned, the second time that

0:16:55.760 --> 0:17:01.200
<v Speaker 3>evil has risen in the world to the heights where

0:17:02.040 --> 0:17:05.320
<v Speaker 3>danger level has been reached. The first time was in

0:17:05.359 --> 0:17:11.119
<v Speaker 3>the nineteen thirties, and that was on the right. That

0:17:11.280 --> 0:17:17.479
<v Speaker 3>was a fascist movement in Europe and Japan, and well

0:17:17.480 --> 0:17:17.720
<v Speaker 3>there was.

0:17:17.680 --> 0:17:20.280
<v Speaker 2>Also a socialist movement in some capacity. I don't want

0:17:20.280 --> 0:17:22.159
<v Speaker 2>to get into I don't want to get into a

0:17:22.320 --> 0:17:23.439
<v Speaker 2>historical argument with you.

0:17:23.760 --> 0:17:26.760
<v Speaker 3>Keep going present time, but you need to know that

0:17:27.119 --> 0:17:33.320
<v Speaker 3>what happened just briefly, so one hundred million dead after

0:17:33.400 --> 0:17:38.320
<v Speaker 3>World War Two. United States defeated evil with the help

0:17:38.359 --> 0:17:41.040
<v Speaker 3>of our allies, but it was really us that did it.

0:17:42.440 --> 0:17:47.600
<v Speaker 3>So that was the defeat of evil in the nineteen thirties.

0:17:47.640 --> 0:17:53.119
<v Speaker 3>But the way it rose was frightening. Now we see

0:17:53.160 --> 0:17:57.600
<v Speaker 3>that again, but it's on the left. It's not on

0:17:57.640 --> 0:18:01.040
<v Speaker 3>the right as it was in the nineteen thirties. And

0:18:01.080 --> 0:18:04.200
<v Speaker 3>what has happened around the world and particularly in the

0:18:04.320 --> 0:18:09.480
<v Speaker 3>United States, it is moral relativism. There is no right

0:18:09.520 --> 0:18:12.400
<v Speaker 3>and wrong, There is no good in evil. So Joe

0:18:12.400 --> 0:18:15.159
<v Speaker 3>Biden didn't get up every morning said I'm committing an

0:18:15.200 --> 0:18:18.479
<v Speaker 3>evil act by failing to enforce immigration law. That's not

0:18:18.520 --> 0:18:21.320
<v Speaker 3>what he did. And there was nobody in the White

0:18:21.320 --> 0:18:24.640
<v Speaker 3>House telling him that. No dissent he lived in a bubble.

0:18:24.960 --> 0:18:29.080
<v Speaker 3>He was barely able to function. And the people that

0:18:29.280 --> 0:18:32.320
<v Speaker 3>drove that open border policy which has led to the

0:18:32.440 --> 0:18:36.520
<v Speaker 3>deaths I would say of hundreds of thousands of Americans

0:18:36.560 --> 0:18:40.919
<v Speaker 3>because of the narcotics proponent of it, that along with

0:18:41.000 --> 0:18:44.359
<v Speaker 3>the flood of migrants, you had a record amount of

0:18:44.440 --> 0:18:48.920
<v Speaker 3>deadly narcotics flowing into this country because the Biden administration

0:18:49.400 --> 0:18:52.240
<v Speaker 3>told the border patrol to stand down. So you're talking

0:18:52.280 --> 0:18:56.280
<v Speaker 3>one hundreds of thousands of dead people partially responsible for

0:18:56.359 --> 0:19:00.280
<v Speaker 3>their own demise, but still aid it in a bed.

0:19:00.640 --> 0:19:03.520
<v Speaker 3>So the love does not see that, they will not

0:19:04.200 --> 0:19:08.960
<v Speaker 3>even recognize it. And that is the danger that we

0:19:09.160 --> 0:19:13.040
<v Speaker 3>face now. And then you go into the law enforcement

0:19:13.920 --> 0:19:17.399
<v Speaker 3>that you have major cities in this country where the

0:19:17.520 --> 0:19:22.320
<v Speaker 3>das don't want to prosecute criminals, and the statement you

0:19:22.440 --> 0:19:25.919
<v Speaker 3>referenced about Mandani and I got blowback from this, but

0:19:26.000 --> 0:19:29.439
<v Speaker 3>that's my life is I said, anybody voting for that

0:19:29.600 --> 0:19:34.000
<v Speaker 3>man for mayor is committing an evil act. You may

0:19:34.000 --> 0:19:39.560
<v Speaker 3>not be totally evil, but by giving him power, and

0:19:39.600 --> 0:19:43.040
<v Speaker 3>he has told you directly he does not want to

0:19:43.040 --> 0:19:46.600
<v Speaker 3>incrson ray criminals. He's going to cut a billion dollars

0:19:46.640 --> 0:19:51.000
<v Speaker 3>out of the NYPD budget. He believes police officers are

0:19:51.160 --> 0:19:55.320
<v Speaker 3>racist across the board. The body count is going to

0:19:55.400 --> 0:20:01.640
<v Speaker 3>triple or quadruple if that man win and you are

0:20:01.800 --> 0:20:06.159
<v Speaker 3>helping him win. What would you call vote like that?

0:20:07.720 --> 0:20:10.879
<v Speaker 3>And when I said it, you can't refute it because

0:20:10.920 --> 0:20:13.960
<v Speaker 3>Mandani himself says it. And then you go over to

0:20:14.040 --> 0:20:17.879
<v Speaker 3>Pritzker and you go over to Johnson in Chicago and

0:20:17.920 --> 0:20:21.840
<v Speaker 3>Illinois where the federal government is offering a blanket of

0:20:21.960 --> 0:20:26.520
<v Speaker 3>protection for African Americans on the South Side who are

0:20:26.520 --> 0:20:30.639
<v Speaker 3>being gunned down on a daily basis by drug gangs

0:20:31.680 --> 0:20:34.600
<v Speaker 3>and has been going on for twenty years and the

0:20:34.640 --> 0:20:37.280
<v Speaker 3>state of locals have not been able to stop it.

0:20:37.800 --> 0:20:42.480
<v Speaker 3>And finally a president says, I'll help you. And that

0:20:42.680 --> 0:20:47.640
<v Speaker 3>guy's the devil, that guy's Hitler. That's evil at an

0:20:47.760 --> 0:20:50.119
<v Speaker 3>unprecedented rhetorical level.

0:20:51.320 --> 0:20:55.919
<v Speaker 2>What you're describing, Bill is a predictable outcome.

0:20:55.680 --> 0:20:57.280
<v Speaker 1>And yet they're there.

0:20:57.880 --> 0:21:02.320
<v Speaker 2>They are leaning into these policies, you know, more heavily

0:21:02.440 --> 0:21:05.720
<v Speaker 2>every single day. Let me go back to your previous point,

0:21:05.800 --> 0:21:09.080
<v Speaker 2>because it's something that I assessed in my book in

0:21:09.080 --> 0:21:11.680
<v Speaker 2>two thousand and four, and that is, you know, the

0:21:11.760 --> 0:21:15.600
<v Speaker 2>last century alone, if you look at Mao and China

0:21:15.640 --> 0:21:19.920
<v Speaker 2>and Stalin and Russia and Hitler and Germany and Mussolini

0:21:19.960 --> 0:21:25.400
<v Speaker 2>and Tojo. We lost over one hundred million people, one

0:21:25.440 --> 0:21:31.040
<v Speaker 2>hundred million souls. And I argued at the time, and

0:21:31.119 --> 0:21:35.640
<v Speaker 2>I argue today, that it is very hard for good people,

0:21:35.760 --> 0:21:39.200
<v Speaker 2>or reasonably good people, or people that desire to be good,

0:21:39.520 --> 0:21:42.760
<v Speaker 2>people that have a heart, conscience and soul, to wrap

0:21:42.840 --> 0:21:48.120
<v Speaker 2>their minds around the fact that evil does exist. And

0:21:48.400 --> 0:21:52.920
<v Speaker 2>if you're allowing unvetted illegals into this country, you're putting

0:21:52.920 --> 0:21:57.000
<v Speaker 2>Americans in danger. If you buy into defund, dismantle no

0:21:57.119 --> 0:22:00.800
<v Speaker 2>BAI laws, reimagine the police, you are opening the door

0:22:00.880 --> 0:22:04.600
<v Speaker 2>to evil and danger. And in that sense, there is

0:22:04.760 --> 0:22:09.320
<v Speaker 2>either a fundamental level of ignorance that is spectacular to

0:22:09.359 --> 0:22:13.320
<v Speaker 2>me because it's common sense, or there are other motives

0:22:13.359 --> 0:22:16.560
<v Speaker 2>that I don't know what they could be about, but

0:22:16.560 --> 0:22:20.639
<v Speaker 2>there's got to be something. The evidence, you know, is

0:22:21.160 --> 0:22:26.479
<v Speaker 2>is that great and understanding this is critical? You know,

0:22:26.560 --> 0:22:32.240
<v Speaker 2>the subtitle of my book Deliverers from Eva was Defeating terrorism, despotism,

0:22:32.880 --> 0:22:37.439
<v Speaker 2>and Liberalism. Now I got I got criticized for putting

0:22:37.440 --> 0:22:39.480
<v Speaker 2>in liberalism and what did I mean by that?

0:22:39.560 --> 0:22:41.200
<v Speaker 1>I meant that we have.

0:22:41.119 --> 0:22:45.360
<v Speaker 2>To win the political narrative if we're going to stop

0:22:45.920 --> 0:22:49.440
<v Speaker 2>the evil that we know exists that maybe a lot

0:22:49.480 --> 0:22:51.120
<v Speaker 2>of people don't want to focus on.

0:22:52.480 --> 0:22:54.879
<v Speaker 3>You're not going to stop it, but you can mitigate it.

0:22:55.480 --> 0:22:58.159
<v Speaker 3>And that's what I'm going to make a prediction about

0:22:58.240 --> 0:23:03.359
<v Speaker 3>right now. Nation of Charlie Kirk is going to lead

0:23:03.600 --> 0:23:08.320
<v Speaker 3>to the weakening of evil in the left wing precincts.

0:23:08.920 --> 0:23:11.240
<v Speaker 3>It's going to be much harder for those people to

0:23:11.359 --> 0:23:18.040
<v Speaker 3>pedal this dangerous philosophy now after Charlie Kirk was assassinated

0:23:18.119 --> 0:23:22.000
<v Speaker 3>than it was last week, because the people who aren't

0:23:22.040 --> 0:23:27.280
<v Speaker 3>ideological are paying attention. Finally, they're putting their cell phones down, Finally,

0:23:28.920 --> 0:23:33.920
<v Speaker 3>they're watching Fox News or News Nation, whatever it may be, finally,

0:23:35.080 --> 0:23:37.399
<v Speaker 3>and they're making judgments. You have to be able to

0:23:37.440 --> 0:23:39.600
<v Speaker 3>make a judgment on this. You can't walk away and

0:23:39.680 --> 0:23:43.360
<v Speaker 3>not make a judgment about Charlie Kirk and the nuts

0:23:43.359 --> 0:23:46.919
<v Speaker 3>and loons who are public and have said, oh, he

0:23:47.000 --> 0:23:51.359
<v Speaker 3>deserved it, like the dowed guy on MSNBC. Anybody shocked

0:23:51.400 --> 0:23:57.240
<v Speaker 3>about MSNBC now, Stephen King, he's been a loon from

0:23:57.320 --> 0:24:00.840
<v Speaker 3>day one. Okay, these people are now on the run.

0:24:01.280 --> 0:24:05.200
<v Speaker 3>They have to apologize. Dowd was fired. Even the women

0:24:05.280 --> 0:24:09.080
<v Speaker 3>on the View as hypocritical as you could possibly get. Oh,

0:24:09.119 --> 0:24:12.160
<v Speaker 3>they're lamenting the death of Charlie Kirk. Did you ever

0:24:12.200 --> 0:24:16.480
<v Speaker 3>invite them on your program? No? Did you ever say

0:24:16.480 --> 0:24:20.919
<v Speaker 3>a kind word about the people that Charlie Kirk represented? Know?

0:24:22.400 --> 0:24:25.359
<v Speaker 3>And now you're all because Disney ordered him to do that.

0:24:26.320 --> 0:24:30.119
<v Speaker 3>Disney actually told the producer of the View, do not

0:24:30.560 --> 0:24:35.399
<v Speaker 3>allow these five women to say anything bad about Charlie Kirk.

0:24:36.040 --> 0:24:41.480
<v Speaker 3>And I know that to be true. So out of tragedy,

0:24:42.240 --> 0:24:47.639
<v Speaker 3>out of evil, if you can mitigated or defeated, sometimes

0:24:47.720 --> 0:24:52.840
<v Speaker 3>emerges good. And I think that Charlie Kirk gave his

0:24:53.040 --> 0:24:58.480
<v Speaker 3>life for his cause, never knowing that obviously this was

0:24:58.560 --> 0:25:02.880
<v Speaker 3>going to happen. Okay, but what is the tied I

0:25:03.080 --> 0:25:09.960
<v Speaker 3>see it beginning to turn against the Pritzkers and the Newsoms.

0:25:10.320 --> 0:25:16.320
<v Speaker 3>The mandanis the Shumers. It's turning against them. And I

0:25:16.400 --> 0:25:19.560
<v Speaker 3>told that to President Trump last night. I shaill you

0:25:19.880 --> 0:25:25.320
<v Speaker 3>be the voice of reason, you say no violence, you

0:25:25.440 --> 0:25:29.679
<v Speaker 3>tamp it down, You lead that movement, because that is

0:25:29.720 --> 0:25:31.679
<v Speaker 3>what the country needs right now.

0:25:31.960 --> 0:25:34.400

0:26:38.480 --> 0:26:41.240
<v Speaker 2>the I think probably the best book you've written, the

<v Speaker 2>most serious book you've written, and you've written a lot

0:26:43.400 --> 0:26:47.000
<v Speaker 2>of them, and I think that there's a message here

0:26:47.560 --> 0:26:50.119
<v Speaker 2>at a very critical time. This is a this is

0:26:50.720 --> 0:26:53.160

<v Speaker 1>a warrior. He was a cheerful warrior.

0:27:40.800 --> 0:27:43.320
<v Speaker 2>Walk into these college campuses, tell me where I'm wrong,

0:27:43.840 --> 0:27:47.960
