Thought a lot about John McCain’s funeral and here are my observations. The McCain family loathes President Trump and Meghan McCain’s eulogy incorporated that sentiment. She was emotional in remembering her father so we should all respect her thoughts even if we disagree. George W. Bush also is not a fan of Trump’s but his remarks had no malice. Barack Obama gave the most political address. A brilliant orator, the former President can be disingenuous. His assessment that the American press is “independent” is astonishing. Mr. Obama basically received lap dog coverage and STILL had no use for the scribes....

Former Fox News hosts and conservative commentators Bill O'Reilly and Glenn Beck offered praise for Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez after she knocked off Democratic Rep. Joseph Crowley (N.Y.) in a primary earlier this week. "I have heard some Republicans deride Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and I think that’s a mistake," O'Reilly tweeted this week. "She won by outworking long time Democratic Congressman Joseph Crowley and seems to care more about people than power. A good thing for any politician." O'Reilly, who was fired from Fox News in 2017 after sexual harassment complaints against him were reported, complimented Ocasio-Cortez's voter outreach but made clear he...

Bill O’Reilly is in talks to head back to cable news in his old 8 p.m. slot, but this time at Newsmax TV, sources exclusively tell Page Six. Newsmax is also chasing other former Fox News talent — Greta Van Susteren and Eric Bolling have been approached to join as hosts of hourlong shows in prime time. Bolling already has a deal with CRTV for a digital show. Adding to the Newsmax mix could be former White House press secretary Sean Spicer, who we’re told is set to star on a politically focused late-night panel show. An insider told Page...

Continuing the liberal media’s insistence that they can diagnose someone as mentally or physically ill, Monday’s Deadline: White House on MSNBC featured detestable liberal Republicans Nicolle Wallace and David Jolly asserting that Ronald Reagan had Alzheimer’s while president to the point that he may have been unfit for office.  Reagan came up during a segment about the likelihood that there’s something wrong mentally or physically wrong with President Trump (which the show insinuated was a yes).  Disgusting MSNBC Republicans: Reagan Definitely Had Alzheimer’s While President   Wallace used the late Michael Deaver (and YouTube videos) as her main sources for claims Reagan having...

On last Friday’s edition of the Glenn Beck’s radio program, former Fox News host Bill O’Reilly doubled down on claims about the existence of an audio recording of an anti-Trump individual offering “$200,000 to file sexual harassment charges against then-presidential candidate Donald J. Trump.” "Former Fox News host Bill O’Reilly is predicting a huge onslaught against President Trump in January based around fake accusations of sexual assault as Democrats panic that Trump’s chances of re-election are surging. Warning, “There’s going to be a tremendous assault on President Trump” beginning in January, O’Reilly says Democrats now feel they must go all...

Former Fox News anchor Juliet Huddy said President Donald Trump tried to kiss her in an elevator around the time he married First Lady Melania. Huddy, who left Fox News after allegedly receiving a settlement after she made a complaint against disgraced anchor Bill O’Reilly, described how the mogul leaned in to kiss her after he took her to lunch at Trump Tower in 2005.

NBC “Today” host Megyn Kelly used her program Monday to take on her former employer, Fox News, over the disclosure that the network signed former host Bill O’Reilly to a $25 million contract in February after he had paid $32 million to settle a sexual harassment claim. Kelly opened her show by noting how she complained to Fox News about O’Reilly, who had disparaged her publicly for writing about her own experiences with sexual harassment at Fox News in her memoir “Settle for More.” “The abuse of women, the shaming of them, the threatening, the retaliation,” Kelly said in her...

October 21, 2017 Once again, The New York Times has maliciously smeared Bill O'Reilly, this time even failing to print a sworn affidavit from his former lawyer, Lis Wiehl, repudiating all allegations against Bill O'Reilly. The Times ignored that evidence, sworn under oath, and chose to rely on unsubstantiated allegations, anonymous sources and incomplete leaked or stolen documents. Here are the facts: after the Chairman of Fox News Roger Ailes was fired in July 2016, dozens of women accused scores of male employees of Fox News of harassment - including the current co-president of Fox News Jack Abernathy. 21st Century...

Last January, six months after Fox News ousted its chairman amid a sexual harassment scandal, the network’s top-rated host at the time, Bill O’Reilly, struck a $32 million agreement with a longtime network analyst to settle new sexual harassment allegations, according to two people briefed on the matter — an extraordinarily large amount for such cases. Although the deal has not been previously made public, the network’s parent company, 21st Century Fox, acknowledges that it was aware of the woman’s complaints about Mr. O’Reilly. They included allegations of repeated harassment, a nonconsensual sexual relationship and the sending of gay pornography...

Bill O'Reilly expressed hope Thursday the Supreme Court will ultimately decide a 40-foot "Peace Cross" honoring World War I soldiers on public land in Maryland can stand, telling Newsmax TV "there's no doubt in my mind that it would." "What makes it really disturbing is that everybody acknowledges that the World War I memorial is basically directing people, Americans and others who are visiting, to honor those who lost their lives in that conflict," O'Reilly told "Newsmax Now" host John Bachman in an interview. "That's all."

Maybe the idiot Murdoch brothers figured out they better not screw with Hannity or the ratings would really go down the toilet.

HUGE ANNOUNCEMENTS tonight Hannity at 9 EST. 1 hour earlier!!!

Newsmax has dropped a bombshell story about the credibility of the key accuser against former Fox host Bill O’Reilly. Had it not been for the allegations by Perquita Burgess, O’Reilly might not have been fired. But as it turns out, Burgess has an arrest for a false allegation in her past. Burgess did not complain to the network at the time and O’Reilly said the charges were false. Newsmax found two documents that called her credibility into question. The first was a police report concerning a fight with her boyfriend where she called them reporting he hit her in the...

“I said that last night and again tonight, but nobody said that. Wait, did I just say that?” – After spending an hour Tuesday night fake moderating a panel during which President Trump was referred to as “unhinged” and other synonyms of that word dozens of times, CNN fake host Don Lemon responded “nobody said that about the President” last night when a guest challenged him for calling the President “crazy” and “unhinged.” Because, after all, this is CNN. They’re like a modern-day Martin and Lewis, only without the talent. – During that same segment, both Lemon and fellow CNN...

Lost in the intense debate over Charlottesville is a very important lesson that all Americans should learn. It has nothing to do with American politics or ideology. It has everything to do with history. I have written three books about World War II and am currently researching a fourth. I can tell you with certainty that most people on this planet have no clue as to how German Nazis went about their lethal business. And that includes President Trump and many other politicians both present and past. Exceptions are the Jewish people who directly experienced genocide at the hands of...

Former Fox News ratings powerhouse Bill O’Reilly revealed Saturday that he is set to launch a video streaming program on his website in the coming months and hinted he could be part of a new network that could compete with his former employer. During the first stop of his “The Spin Stops Here” tour in Westbury, New York, the 67-year-old former cable news ratings king told the audience about his plans for the future, including for his BillOReilly.com website, where he has been hosting podcasts since his ouster from Fox earlier this year. O’Reilly told the audience that he would...

Since Bill O’Reilly’s April departure from Fox News, a seemingly endless discussion about his next career move continues to rage. Mediaite reported today that a now-former producer of a Fox News program cites plans to join O’Reilly “in a new online video project that is soon to launch” as a reason for departure from the network. The producer also revealed that “there are broadcast plans to follow shortly” but did not reveal anything more specific. O’Reilly told Mediaite when they reached out for comment: “We are assembling a team of journalists and are considering a number of options as BillOReilly.com...

Speaking via Skype with Newsmax TV last week, Bill O’Reilly revealed that he has plans to fight back against those who brought him down. Clearly foreshadowing litigation but claiming that his attorneys have implored him to offer no information, the former dominant personality of the entire cable news industry is not planning to go away quietly. Bill is not going away quietly It is no secret that George Soros-backed Media Matters has long had a campaign against FNC and its dominant personalities. No doubt others helped with the “Get Bill” project. If O’Reilly sues on the basis of tortious...

Bill O'Reilly already has his own podcasts, "No Spin News," which is a feature available to his paying subscribers. Now, he is joining forces with fellow former Fox News commentator Glenn Beck. O'Reilly and Beck have two things in common: they both served as conservative political commentators on Fox News programs and they both have podcasts. Now, according to The New York Times, O'Reilly revealed that he will be joining Beck on his podcast, "The Blaze," every week. "We're going to do that every Friday until Beck gets tired of me," O'Reilly said in his podcast. "It's a good outlet...
