A good read, but warning to Stone you won't like it. There is more, but I cut it short:
Hey, Bill O'Reilly here. Welcome to the No Spin News, Wednesday, September 3rd, 2025. Stand up for your country. So, September is going to be a very difficult month for President Trump. He's got to deal with Putin, that's number one. And Putin's kind of mocking President Trump right now by sending drones, hundreds of them, to kill innocent people in Ukraine. So remember, Putin doesn't target military, he targets civilians. And then President Trump is going to have to deal with Xi in China, big, massive trade deal on the table. He's going to sort all that. Then we come back home, and the Supreme Court is going to have to rule on National Guard to the cities, tariffs, block this, block that. So President Trump is really, I don't know, I'm looking at his September schedule, and it's crazy. You should know that we are on all of this. We are ahead of it. And that is why you watch and listen to me. So, we will have the latest, we'll have it first. Talking Points Memo this evening is on failure, political failure.
So I'm a simple man, you know that. And I don't know why people vote for politicians who screw up, who destroy their environments, cities, who raise their taxes, who hurt them, who won't prosecute criminals. I don't understand it, but I really do. I don't understand it emotionally, but intellectually, I do understand it, and I will explain it now. But first, some examples. State of California, largest in the nation, beautiful place from top to bottom, in my opinion, I've been to every county. All right, since Gavin Newsom, the governor, has been in office six years, it has gone from a budget surplus to $32 billion in debt. That is just an abysmal record. And what did the state get for the 32 billion in that? All of that massive spending. You tell me, because I don't know. But 1.2 million people agree with me because they've left California under Newsom. 1.2 million people. Bye. And it's hard. It's hard to leave. I was discussing that today with Hannity on his radio program, we posted that on BillOReilly.com. Hannity split from New York. He said, Oh, you should come down here to Florida. Well, I run three corporations and I've got family obligations and everything else up here in New York, I can't just say, hey, see you later, I don't like the politics and I don't. But I'm going to fight it out here for a while, not forever, for a while. But in California, 1.2 million? And now this guy wants to be president? So, where are we going to move, Ireland, the Bahamas? San Francisco spent $25 billion on homeless drug addicts. $25 billion on these ne'er-do-wells, miscreants, running around the streets, ruining the city. Has anything improved after the $25 billion spent? No! Failure. Gross failure.
Then we have Chicago. The past 10 years, almost 7,000 people have been murdered in Chicago. And it's the third largest city. And the carnage continues. Look at the Labor Day stats we reported on yesterday. Yet no accountability. They elect loon after loon, after loon. Lori Lightfoot, we thought she was the worst. Johnson, Brandon Johnson, mayor of Chicago, is worse. No, we don't put anybody in jail. It's racist to put anybody in jail. Yeah, no, no. Let the gang bangers just mow down anybody they want. You don't think these black neighborhoods are terrorized by these drug gangs? They are. But the people keep voting for people like Brandon Johnson. Okay, one more. New York. So more than two million people have left the city and state of New York since 2015, 10 years. And that'll be more because we haven't added in 2025 yet. More than two million people saying, I'm outta here, Hannity's one of them, okay? And the reasons are highest taxes, social disorder, general chaos, terrible schools in the poor neighborhoods. In the wealthy neighborhoods, the schools are okay. But we are spending more than $35,000 per pupil in New York public schools. 35,000 a year on one kid. Catholic schools maybe spend 13, 14,000, and you'll get a better education in Catholic school, and they'll take you even if you're Muslim, now. So, failure, failure, failure, failure. Democratic Party props all this up. You don't hear Democrats criticizing any of these cities at all for anything. And that's why Democratic Party is in so much trouble. Okay. And finally, New York City is facing a communist mayor, as you know, Zohran Mamdani. I said to Hannity today, this could be the biblical Sodom and Gomorrah. That's what this could be. That there's a theological reason that an extremist who will destroy New York City, he will. You think we've got bad people now? This guy is off the chart. Maybe that has to happen. Maybe you have to blow it all up before people say, I'm not voting for failure any longer.
Okay, summing up. Progressive leadership doesn't work anywhere in the world, never has, never will. I've been to Cuba, I recently returned from China, as you know, been to Russia, been to communist Eastern Europe when it was still controlled by the Soviet Union. I have seen it up close. Doesn't work, progressive leadership. That is the memo.
