A few things are clear about the Trump indictment. First, after his press conference, I think it's fair to say that Manhattan DA Alvin Bragg is not exactly Eliot Ness. Or even Barney Fife. His entire case rests on the assertion that Donald Trump used illegal business practices to cover up or commit a greater crime. But what crime? Bragg told reporters that he doesn't have to say. Oh. It's instructive to put Alvin Bragg in the TV show "Law and Order: Criminal Intent." The fearless lawman is convinced that an alleged dalliance between Mr. Trump and an actress that...

You may have noticed that the Academy Award nominations were announced this week. It is also notable that few cared. That's really too bad because one of America's great cultural contributions to the world is our film industry. Well, it used to be, anyway. Gone are the days of the glamorous movie star and incredible films. Today we have superheroes blowing stuff up and dinosaurs rampaging through San Diego - frightening everybody except the homeless who are not moving from the Gaslight District, no matter what. The televised Oscar show will be hosted by Jimmy Kimmel, who'd better watch himself,...

Pity the fool who's vote remains undecided, as Mr. T might say. Surely, all Americans understand the pain Mr. Joe Biden has brought. Even those who are standing by their man cannot deny it. A recent CBS poll says 79 percent believe America is "out of control." However, if that survey were taken only among CBS News personnel, the out-of-control number would be around ten percent, if that. Liberal voters know things are not well, but nothing is worse than supporting "the big lie." To them, inflation, violent crime, open borders, energy dependence, woke incoherence, and massive federal spending pales...

Bill O’Reilly has reached a conclusion that has probably occurred to many people recently, namely that although Joe Biden always represented himself as a moderate regular guy with blue-collar sensibilities from Scranton, he “fooled a lot of folks, including me.” For, O’Reilly observes, Biden has recently been full of praise for extremists, saying that he agrees with everything Rep. Maxine Waters says, which includes, after the George Floyd killing, justifying violence and praising “one of the biggest haters on television,” Joy Behar. Although I certainly understand O’Reilly’s reasoning, I must disagree. My view is that the situation is far worse...

Bill O’Reilly, host of No Spin News and author of Killing the Legends: The Lethal Danger of Celebrity, said on Friday’s edition of SiriusXM’s Breitbart News Daily with host Alex Marlow that former President Donald Trump is “addicted” to fame. “Trump is addicted to the spotlight,” O’Reilly stated. “He has to have it, and that’s hurt him, because once you have to get attention at all times, you’re going to make mistakes. For example, this Maggie Haberman, New York Times reporter, he gives her three interviews. He knows she’s going cut his throat. He’s got to know what she’s been...

The headline reads this way: "Independent women voters have massively shifted from Democrats toward Republicans in the race for Congress as a faltering economy becomes an ever-larger issue, according to a New York Times/Siena poll released Monday." If that's true, and that poll has been suspect, it is all over for the Dems on November 8. The GOP will win both houses of Congress. I think that will happen. As I reported on the No Spin News, President Biden has gone from befuddled to delusional. Baghdad Bob territory. He told a reporter in Portland, Oregon the economy is "strong as...

After reading the Los Angeles Times over the past few days, I understand why the once-respected newspaper will most likely go out of business. At least, its print edition will. The paper is incredibly out of touch with working, non-ideological people who simply want a decent life for themselves and their families. Example. In both LA and San Francisco, homeless drug addicts are battering law-abiding citizens. Everyone knows this. We can see it with our own eyes. The crime statistics are staggering. And for every crime, victims suffer. Yet, the LA Times is not outraged by the addicted criminal or...

Former Fox News host Bill O’Reilly appeared in footage captured in the John F. Kennedy International Airport in New York cursing at a JetBlue Airways employee over a delayed flight. “What you’re gonna do … It’s three hours late,” O’Reilly said to the JetBlue employee in the video obtained by The Daily Mail and published Tuesday.

Former Fox News host Bill O’Reilly said Monday that former President Trump will again run for office – advising him to do so in part based on a record of developing the COVID-19 vaccine during his administration. Appearing on Dan Abrams’s primetime show on NewsNation, O’Reilly said Trump called him after revealing he had gotten a booster shot, which elicited some boos from a crowd in Dallas during a speaking tour.

Former Fox News host Bill O'Reilly said downplaying or diminishing the seriousness of the Jan. 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol is something that "could never have happened" during his time at the network. "Fox News is a different place than it was when I was there," O'Reilly said Tuesday evening while appearing on Dan Abrams' primetime show on NewsNation. “I don’t follow it that that closely anymore, but when I was there, there was a discipline from management that diminishing the Capitol riot could never have happened. And I'll state that firmly on the record.” O'Reilly had joined Abrams'...

Both Donald Trump and Bill O'Reilly touted huge crowds ahead of their "History Tour." But it kicked off at the FLA Live Arena in Sunrise, Florida, with many empty seats, according to local media. "Massive crowd headed into FLA Live! The Trump/O'Reilly History show starts soon...," O'Reilly, the former Fox host, wrote on Twitter on Saturday.

Former Fox News host Bill O’Reilly reportedly threatened to sue a Politico reporter over an article revealing that sales for his “History Tour” with former President Trump were low, citing conversations with venue ticketing officials. Politico’s Daniel Lippman on Friday reported that tickets for the tour, which has four stops scheduled at locations in Texas and Florida this December, went on sale June 14, though venue officials said sales have so far been slow compared with other events held at the arenas. [cut] However, Trump and O’Reilly have both pushed back on Politico’s reporting, with Trump spokeswoman Liz Harrington saying...

This is a big eye opener! I give BOR full credit in exposing the money trail in BLM and how Soros is involved. They are like a corrupt charity. Quite shocking.

LEMON: He is right about that, too. But in my estimation, he doesn't go far enough. Because black people, if you really want to fix the problem, here's just five things that you should think about doing. Here's number five, ..........

More than three years after Bill O’Reilly was fired from Fox News amid sexual-harassment allegations, the No Spinster is returning to television. Upstart OTT network The First will run his show starting tonight. No Spin News, the show that has been running on O’Reilly website and on YouTube, now will air weeknights at 8 p.m. ET/5 PT on The First and repeat three hours later. That’s the same slot where The O’Reilly Factor aired on Fox News Channel. “The success of BillOReilly.com with millions of users will now accelerate with our partnership,” O’Reilly said in the announcement. “The First will...

The most important man in President Trump’s life right now is William Barr, the Attorney General of the United States. Yet, Mr. Trump may not understand that. However, the hate-Trump media brigades certainly do. If Mr. Barr were to turn against the President, his re-election chances would be damaged. Significantly. That’s because William Barr is a tough, honest prosecutor who is trying to uphold the crucial constitutional mandate of “equal justice for all.” That means a corrupt media is not the dispenser of justice, nor is a sitting President who may have a personal agenda. The latest controversy over Roger...

Via the Examiner. Come on, people. He’s kidding! He’s a kidder.I mean, I think he’s kidding. Of course, this wouldn’t be the first time he’s floated the idea of O’Reilly returning to the network, like Napoleon escaping from exile to rule the empire once again. From July: And it also wouldn’t be the first time one of them has tried to recruit the other, assuming this 2017 report from Gabriel Sherman is true: As I reported this morning on @amjoyshow, Bill O'Reilly has talked Hannity about teaming up to go to Sinclair Broadcasting, sources say.— Gabriel Sherman (@gabrielsherman) July...

Former Fox News Host Bill O'Reilly said President Trump called him Wednesday night to allege special counsel Robert Mueller's investigation into Russian interference in the 2016 presidential election was a "personal thing." In a Thursday morning radio appearance on the show "Bernie and Sid in the Morning", O'Reilly said Trump called him at 11 p.m. the night before to discuss Mueller's findings, alleging that Mueller had to "signal to the swamp" that he "still believes that Donald Trump did something illegal." "Trump says Mueller doesn't like him because he turned him down to be the head of the FBI after...
