  Speaker 1: You just heard the news.
• 0:02
  Speaker 2: Now you'll find out what it all means.
• 0:05
  Speaker 3: Hey smart simone on seven tenor Hey, well.
• 0:11
  Speaker 2: I forget to We'll get to the president's speech. It's
• 0:14
  Speaker 2: gonna happen tonight. What's that all about. We'll get to
• 0:17
  Speaker 2: the fake Susie Wilds controversy. We'll get to Nick Reiner.
• 0:21
  Speaker 2: More details coming out, We'll get to Milania. We'll get
• 0:24
  Speaker 2: a Cardinal Dolan who we love, maybe leaving. We'll get
• 0:29
  Speaker 2: to that coming up in more. Oh, Jack Smith and
• 0:33
  Speaker 2: Merrick Garland. I've been caught again in just total law
• 0:37
  Speaker 2: fair corruption. We'll get to that just ahead. So hey,
• 0:42
  Speaker 2: let's just talk about the Nick Reiner for a second now.
• 0:46
  Speaker 2: If you were listening Monday and Tuesday and we went
• 0:48
  Speaker 2: over the story, what was known about the case and
• 0:52
  Speaker 2: the big problem with LA I don't know why, but
• 0:54
  Speaker 2: they're just not very forthcoming. The disc attorney, the police chief,
• 0:58
  Speaker 2: they speak, they hold prescot, but they don't give you
• 1:01
  Speaker 2: the details. So we've been depending on police sources to
• 1:05
  Speaker 2: leak stuff out. And the original story we got leaked
• 1:09
  Speaker 2: out being reported was that the daughter who lives on
• 1:15
  Speaker 2: the property in a guest house, heard loud arguing and
• 1:18
  Speaker 2: at some point went over to check and found the bodies. Well,
• 1:22
  Speaker 2: now there's a whole different story being leaked out of
• 1:25
  Speaker 2: the police department. So again these are from good police sources,
• 1:28
  Speaker 2: but you know, I can't guarantee everything because it's not
• 1:32
  Speaker 2: official on the record. But it's also the fog of war,
• 1:36
  Speaker 2: you know, you get all kinds of reports. But the
• 1:38
  Speaker 2: latest version coming out of the police department is the
• 1:43
  Speaker 2: daughter lives in the guest house and a masseuse comes
• 1:48
  Speaker 2: to the winers' house on Sundays to give them massages.
• 1:52
  Speaker 2: The masseuse could not get in. They didn't answer. They
• 1:55
  Speaker 2: didn't answer the gate. The house open the gate, they
• 1:58
  Speaker 2: didn't answer the phone, well, didn't answer anything highly unusual
• 2:02
  Speaker 2: for them. So the masseuse got concerned, called the daughter,
• 2:05
  Speaker 2: who lives with a roommate, and the two of them
• 2:08
  Speaker 2: went over to check. And the story is when the
• 2:11
  Speaker 2: daughter walked in, she found Rob Reiner's body there on
• 2:14
  Speaker 2: the floor somewhere. Obviously, went into shock and had the
• 2:19
  Speaker 2: roommate call nine to one pint one. The roommate calls
• 2:23
  Speaker 2: the police, while the daughter calls Billy Crystal, who it
• 2:26
  Speaker 2: turns out is Rhiner's closest friend, Crystal and his wife
• 2:30
  Speaker 2: race over to the scene, and the police arrive at
• 2:33
  Speaker 2: about the same time, and the daughter and roommate are
• 2:37
  Speaker 2: waiting outside while the police. Everybody's in there now. The
• 2:40
  Speaker 2: daughter didn't know that the mother had also been stabbed.
• 2:44
  Speaker 2: The police had to come out and tell her it's
• 2:45
  Speaker 2: not just your father. Apparently he was outside the bedroom,
• 2:49
  Speaker 2: and when they went in the bedroom, they found the
• 2:51
  Speaker 2: mother dead, throat slit, and they had to tell the
• 2:54
  Speaker 2: daughter it's just a horrible, horrible, horrible story. I was
• 3:00
  Speaker 2: saying that it looked like rigor mortis had had started
• 3:03
  Speaker 2: setting in. That means they'd been dead for a few hours.
• 3:07
  Speaker 2: So the new version that's coming out of the police
• 3:11
  Speaker 2: department is that the night before they're at this Conan
• 3:14
  Speaker 2: O'Brien Christmas party, Nick Reiner gets into a huge fight
• 3:19
  Speaker 2: with his father. He'd been getting into fights with a
• 3:21
  Speaker 2: lot of people around the room, a lot of people
• 3:27
  Speaker 2: disturbed by his behavior, his appearance. He came in with
• 3:30
  Speaker 2: a sweatsuit and a hoodie over his head and at
• 3:34
  Speaker 2: one point got in a fights with people. We've got
• 3:37
  Speaker 2: into arguments with people, looked really really weird with people,
• 3:42
  Speaker 2: and some of them even left the party. They didn't
• 3:44
  Speaker 2: want to deal with him. Bill Hayter was one of them.
• 3:47
  Speaker 2: Hayter was talking to somebody and Nick Reiner came over
• 3:50
  Speaker 2: with that psycho look. I guess hater didn't know who
• 3:53
  Speaker 2: he was, and said, excuse us, this is a private conversation.
• 3:57
  Speaker 2: Chased him away. Well, then Nick Reiner came over and
• 3:59
  Speaker 2: just glared at him with a scary, scary looking stare,
• 4:03
  Speaker 2: so scary that the hater left the party. Nick Reiner
• 4:08
  Speaker 2: then got a huge screaming fight with his father in
• 4:13
  Speaker 2: the party. It got so out of control and alarmed
• 4:15
  Speaker 2: the other guests. It got so out of control that
• 4:17
  Speaker 2: Rob Ryder and his wife decided they should leave the party.
• 4:20
  Speaker 2: The crazy son, Nick Reiner left, So it now looks
• 4:25
  Speaker 2: like it's possible that it was later that night, in
• 4:28
  Speaker 2: the middle of the night, that he went and maybe
• 4:31
  Speaker 2: maybe that's when it happened stabbed his parents, because he
• 4:33
  Speaker 2: then at four point thirty in the morning showed up
• 4:36
  Speaker 2: at this hotel to check into the hotel. So if
• 4:39
  Speaker 2: he had later that night gone to the house, stabbed them,
• 4:42
  Speaker 2: killed them, obviously he wouldn't continue to stay in the
• 4:45
  Speaker 2: guest house right on the property, so that could be
• 4:48
  Speaker 2: why at four thirty in the morning he went and
• 4:49
  Speaker 2: checked into a hotel. Police found him the next day.
• 4:53
  Speaker 2: He was dressed all in dark clothes, wearing a baseball cap.
• 4:56
  Speaker 2: They had pictures of him, a description of him. He
• 4:59
  Speaker 2: was at a metro station, this is fifteen miles away
• 5:02
  Speaker 2: from the Reiner house. Two police cars saw him. They
• 5:05
  Speaker 2: pulled up, surrounded him. He didn't resist. He put his
• 5:09
  Speaker 2: arms up in surrender, and they've taken him into custody.
• 5:14
  Speaker 2: He's been in a protective custody. He's been on suicide watch.
• 5:18
  Speaker 2: Was supposed to appear in court yesterday. He's got a
• 5:21
  Speaker 2: top top LA lawyer, one of the biggest best LA lawyers,
• 5:25
  Speaker 2: the guy who had defended Harvey Weinstein's defended other high
• 5:30
  Speaker 2: profile murderers. Now here's the District Attorney of Los Angeles.
• 5:35
  Speaker 3: Their loss is beyond tragic, and we have we will
• 5:40
  Speaker 3: commit ourselves to bringing their murderer to justice.
• 5:44
  Speaker 2: Yeah, no, they could charge him. They're going to charge
• 5:46
  Speaker 2: him with two counts of murder, with aggravated this, aggravated that.
• 5:50
  Speaker 2: So he is facing the death penalty.
• 5:52
  Speaker 3: Rob Reiner was a brilliant actor and director, an iconic
• 5:56
  Speaker 3: force in our entertainment industry for deck Aids, his wife,
• 6:01
  Speaker 3: Michelle Singer Reiner was inequally iconic photography.
• 6:06
  Speaker 2: One thing I don't like it's the secretorny. He's great
• 6:08
  Speaker 2: with all these long speeches, but why has he given us.
• 6:11
  Speaker 2: He should be given us actual specific details of what happened.
• 6:14
  Speaker 3: Now, prosecuting these cases involving family members are some of
• 6:19
  Speaker 3: the most challenging and most heart wrenching cases that this
• 6:22
  Speaker 3: office faces because of the intimate and often brutal nature
• 6:26
  Speaker 3: of the crimes involved.
• 6:29
  Speaker 2: We know all this, but again not very open about details.
• 6:32
  Speaker 3: These charges will be two counts of first degree murder
• 6:36
  Speaker 3: with the special circumstance of multiple murders.
• 6:40
  Speaker 2: Yeah, so he will. Obviously he's got a really, really
• 6:44
  Speaker 2: top lawyer. I know exactly who's paying for it. But
• 6:48
  Speaker 2: hopefully he's convicted. Hopefully he's he's eligible for the death penalty.
• 6:52
  Speaker 2: I would give it to him if I run a jury,
• 6:54
  Speaker 2: but he's facing life in prison otherwise, and I'm sure
• 6:59
  Speaker 2: they'll be able to convictim.
• 7:00
  Speaker 3: Our office will be filing charges against Nick Reiner, who
• 7:05
  Speaker 3: was accused of killing his parents. Actor director Rob Reiner
• 7:08
  Speaker 3: and photographer producer Michelle Singer Reiner. Our office.
• 7:14
  Speaker 2: Hopefully comes into court today. It was supposed to be yesterday.
• 7:18
  Speaker 2: They couldn't what they call medically clear and we have
• 7:20
  Speaker 2: to have a medical clearance to be taken to court,
• 7:23
  Speaker 2: just a procedural thing. So hopefully that happens today. Hopefully
• 7:26
  Speaker 2: he comes to court today and gets officially charged. Now,
• 7:30
  Speaker 2: the President Trump will make a big speech to the
• 7:33
  Speaker 2: nation tonight at nine o'clock. You know, years ago, it
• 7:37
  Speaker 2: was quite a big deal when the president did that.
• 7:39
  Speaker 2: They would call all the networks and ask for a
• 7:42
  Speaker 2: time at eight o'clock or nine o'clock or whenever they wanted,
• 7:46
  Speaker 2: and every network would stop what they were doing and
• 7:49
  Speaker 2: broadcast the president's speech. It was on all the networks,
• 7:52
  Speaker 2: which meant in nineteen seventy eight or nineteen eighty seven
• 7:56
  Speaker 2: or nineteen ninety three, when they put it on all
• 7:59
  Speaker 2: the networks, it meant sixty million people would see it. Well,
• 8:02
  Speaker 2: nobody watches network TV anymore, so if you got all
• 8:06
  Speaker 2: three networks to carry your speech, you'd be lucky. If
• 8:08
  Speaker 2: you got eight million people, it's a much much smaller audience.
• 8:12
  Speaker 2: And if you get the cable networks, well maybe then
• 8:14
  Speaker 2: you get six or seven million, but when you total
• 8:18
  Speaker 2: it all up, it's just not that big an audience anymore. Now,
• 8:22
  Speaker 2: these networks have all agreed tonight at nine o'clock to
• 8:25
  Speaker 2: carry the speech. It's standard procedure that when a White
• 8:28
  Speaker 2: House ask you for the time, you carry the speech. Now,
• 8:31
  Speaker 2: with Trump, you know it's different. They might not. However,
• 8:33
  Speaker 2: I think the network's are a little afraid of Trump.
• 8:35
  Speaker 2: You know, he does come after them, he does sue them,
• 8:38
  Speaker 2: he does threaten them. So I think they're afraid not
• 8:41
  Speaker 2: to carry the speech. So we'll see will carry the speech.
• 8:44
  Speaker 2: We'll have it tonight at nine. Now. Obviously Fox, very
• 8:48
  Speaker 2: responsible network, will carry it. I would think CNN will
• 8:51
  Speaker 2: carry it because they got their panel of thirty two
• 8:54
  Speaker 2: liberals who want to trash him after the speech. Now,
• 8:57
  Speaker 2: MS now is not a really it's not really a
• 9:00
  Speaker 2: network anymore. It's not part of NBC. They threw MSNBC out,
• 9:05
  Speaker 2: took their name off it, so it's just a little
• 9:07
  Speaker 2: mom and pop shop. Now, I know they can do
• 9:08
  Speaker 2: whatever the hell they want. Will they carry it, I
• 9:10
  Speaker 2: don't know. I don't know. We'll see. The President can
• 9:15
  Speaker 2: threaten them, but there's not much he can threaten them
• 9:17
  Speaker 2: with they're not really anything anymore. But the speech tonight,
• 9:21
  Speaker 2: the agenda is nobody knows. It's being kept secret. I
• 9:27
  Speaker 2: would imagine the one thing we do now, he'll go
• 9:29
  Speaker 2: over his accomplishments, a couple of things he might want
• 9:33
  Speaker 2: to do now. Normally you wait till the State of
• 9:34
  Speaker 2: the Union speech in January, but I guess he feels
• 9:37
  Speaker 2: the need to do it now. Also, it's good to
• 9:40
  Speaker 2: do it right now tonight, right before the holidays, because
• 9:42
  Speaker 2: everybody's going to get all distracted for a couple of weeks.
• 9:46
  Speaker 2: But one of the things he'll do. They created this
• 9:48
  Speaker 2: whole fake myth of affordability, crisis, economy and crisis. The
• 9:53
  Speaker 2: economy is doing a hell of a lot better than
• 9:55
  Speaker 2: last year. It's not perfect, but the improvement over the
• 9:59
  Speaker 2: last year is amazing. Inflation hitting nine percent. Under Biden
• 10:04
  Speaker 2: it averaged five point six percent. Well it's down to
• 10:07
  Speaker 2: two point five percent. There's been a huge improvement in inflation.
• 10:12
  Speaker 2: The job numbers are up, and actually up more than
• 10:15
  Speaker 2: the numbers actually show because under Biden, when you saw
• 10:18
  Speaker 2: those jobs, there were government jobs. They were hiring government
• 10:21
  Speaker 2: people to make the job numbers go up. In this case,
• 10:24
  Speaker 2: it's all private sector jobs. So you've had a big improvement.
• 10:27
  Speaker 2: Gas prices are down all over the place, not New
• 10:30
  Speaker 2: York or California where the locals are keeping the gas
• 10:33
  Speaker 2: prices high, but the gas prices are averaging like two
• 10:36
  Speaker 2: dollars and fifty cents. You know, in one state, I
• 10:39
  Speaker 2: think it's Colorado, they finally went under two dollars. Oil
• 10:42
  Speaker 2: is fifty five dollars a barrel, down from one hundred
• 10:44
  Speaker 2: and ten. So gas prices, everything is better, much better,
• 10:49
  Speaker 2: But people don't know that because of the fake news.
• 10:52
  Speaker 2: But he'll have a chance to go over the actual
• 10:54
  Speaker 2: numbers tonight. I imagine he'll do that. He'll probably talk
• 10:59
  Speaker 2: about the narco terrorists and those boats, blowing those boats up.
• 11:03
  Speaker 2: It's something people like. They really like the idea of
• 11:08
  Speaker 2: wiping out the drug supply and stopping it. Obviously, he'll
• 11:11
  Speaker 2: go over the border, and the actual numbers of the
• 11:14
  Speaker 2: success at closing the border are pretty amazing, So he'll
• 11:17
  Speaker 2: go over that, and I don't know what else we'll see. Hey,
• 11:23
  Speaker 2: the other thing, if you're watching that crazy MS NOW
• 11:26
  Speaker 2: or CNN or the late night shows, you know all
• 11:30
  Speaker 2: the left wing cooks, all they're talking about is Susie Wiles,
• 11:34
  Speaker 2: the White House chief of Staff, very disciplined, doesn't ever
• 11:38
  Speaker 2: do interviews, stays under the radar, very quiet, very respected.
• 11:43
  Speaker 2: All they're talking about she gave an interview to Vanity
• 11:45
  Speaker 2: Fair and she said all kinds of things. She was
• 11:48
  Speaker 2: so blunt and said, you know, jd Vance is a
• 11:52
  Speaker 2: conspiracy theorist and all of that. Well, nobody in the
• 11:55
  Speaker 2: White House is upset about it for two reasons. One,
• 11:58
  Speaker 2: nobody reads Vanity Fair. It's a tiny audience. The only
• 12:01
  Speaker 2: people that read it are the ms now people that
• 12:05
  Speaker 2: live in the echo chamber are the only ones that
• 12:06
  Speaker 2: read it. And Also, it's not an issue anywhere. It's
• 12:10
  Speaker 2: a Beltway DC issue, It's a CNN ms NOW issue.
• 12:15
  Speaker 2: This is not the American public. This is these left
• 12:17
  Speaker 2: wing kooks who live in this echo chamber. For them,
• 12:20
  Speaker 2: it's a parlor game. They're all talking about this Susie
• 12:22
  Speaker 2: Wilds story. The old Washington test, The old DC test
• 12:27
  Speaker 2: is if you went to Green Bay, Wisconsin and went
• 12:30
  Speaker 2: into a diner, would anybody be talking about it. No,
• 12:34
  Speaker 2: there's nobody in a diner in Green Bay, Wisconsin discussing
• 12:37
  Speaker 2: Susie Wilds or the vanity fair piece. So it is
• 12:40
  Speaker 2: totally meanless with the public. Even the people she criticized
• 12:46
  Speaker 2: just laughed it off. She said, the JD. Vance has
• 12:49
  Speaker 2: always been a conspiracy theorist. Here is Vance yesterday.
• 12:51
  Speaker 1: I haven't looked at the article.
• 12:52
  Speaker 4: I of course have heard about it, but conspiracy theorist.
• 12:56
  Speaker 2: Sometimes I am a conspiracy theorist, but I only believe
• 12:59
  Speaker 2: in the conspiracy.
• 13:00
  Speaker 4: Theories that are true.
• 13:04
  Speaker 2: Presidents spoke about said he couldn't care less about the
• 13:07
  Speaker 2: article meant nothing. Here's the Caroline Levet.
• 13:09
  Speaker 4: This is, unfortunately another example of disingenuous reporting where you
• 13:15
  Speaker 4: have a reporter who took the chief of staff's words
• 13:18
  Speaker 4: wildly out of context, did not include the context those
• 13:21
  Speaker 4: conversations were had within. And then further, I think the
• 13:25
  Speaker 4: most egregious part of this article was the bias of omission.
• 13:29
  Speaker 2: Yeah, well there was a lot of that. And this guy,
• 13:31
  Speaker 2: why would you do an interview with this guy? Well,
• 13:33
  Speaker 2: this guy's supposedly a respected journalist who has a long
• 13:36
  Speaker 2: history of doing profiles of White House chiefs of staff,
• 13:40
  Speaker 2: all the great White Houses. He's done massive profiles of
• 13:44
  Speaker 2: the chiefs of staff. So that's why she did it,
• 13:46
  Speaker 2: but he's a very biased reporter. If you read them all,
• 13:50
  Speaker 2: it's hysterical. Every Democratic white House, the chief of staff
• 13:53
  Speaker 2: is a genius. It's a glowing piece about how wonderfully
• 13:56
  Speaker 2: is every Republican White House. The chief of staff is terrible.
• 14:00
  Speaker 2: He's awful. Everything's in chaos. So pretty obvious slanted bias. Hey,
• 14:05
  Speaker 2: we'll get to Jack Smith coming up. This is pretty
• 14:09
  Speaker 2: interesting the raid on mar a Lago. You know, there
• 14:11
  Speaker 2: were no classified documents at mar Lago. It was all
• 14:14
  Speaker 2: a fake, made up hoax. In the end, they did
• 14:17
  Speaker 2: find thirty five classified documents. If you put them in
• 14:20
  Speaker 2: a folder. The folder is one inch thick one inch,
• 14:25
  Speaker 2: So what the hell were those five hundred boxes in
• 14:27
  Speaker 2: the pictures each None of them contained any classified documents,
• 14:30
  Speaker 2: and there was no reason to do the raid. Emails
• 14:33
  Speaker 2: have been discovered and released in Congress. They've released them.
• 14:40
  Speaker 2: It turns out the FBI itself said there's absolutely nothing
• 14:44
  Speaker 2: to justify his search. There's no real source that there's
• 14:47
  Speaker 2: classified documents there. It was one guy in the Archives Department.
• 14:51
  Speaker 2: They couldn't confirm it with anybody, and they kept telling
• 14:54
  Speaker 2: them Justice Department, there's no justification for a search. But
• 14:58
  Speaker 2: it turns out, according to these emails, were ordered to
• 15:00
  Speaker 2: do it. The Biden administration ordered them. We don't care
• 15:04
  Speaker 2: if you don't know. I mean, just you're going to do
• 15:06
  Speaker 2: this raid. Now, there could be criminal charges over this.
• 15:10
  Speaker 2: President Trump could sue, he'd have a great lawsuit against
• 15:13
  Speaker 2: the Department of Justice and they'd have to pay him
• 15:16
  Speaker 2: a ton of money. But he could also find there
• 15:19
  Speaker 2: could be criminal charges here. Now Jacksmith had not yet
• 15:22
  Speaker 2: been appointed on this, but it could be Merrick Garland.
• 15:26
  Speaker 2: For the first time ever, he's possibly in some legal
• 15:29
  Speaker 2: jeopardy ordering this when the even the FBI was saying
• 15:33
  Speaker 2: there's no justification for a search. Hey, some terrible, terrible news.
• 15:38
  Speaker 2: It's not confirmed, but Cardinal Dolan may be leaving. We
• 15:41
  Speaker 2: love Cardinal Dolan. He's seventy five. You know, when you're
• 15:45
  Speaker 2: seventy five, you're supposed to resign and retire as the
• 15:48
  Speaker 2: cardinals seventy five, it's a mandatory thing in the church.
• 15:51
  Speaker 2: He turned seventy five last year turned into his resignation.
• 15:56
  Speaker 2: But sometimes they just don't take it for a while.
• 15:59
  Speaker 2: And you remember, the pope died and we had a
• 16:01
  Speaker 2: new pope, so that put everything on hold for a while,
• 16:05
  Speaker 2: and sometimes they cannot accept the resignation right away. But
• 16:08
  Speaker 2: there's rumors and word coming out of the archdiocese that
• 16:12
  Speaker 2: they're going to accept the resignation. Who would be the
• 16:16
  Speaker 2: new cardinal will? It looks like according again according to sources,
• 16:20
  Speaker 2: So it's not one hundred percent. It's the bishop from
• 16:23
  Speaker 2: Chicago's name is Hicks. Very good resume for this sort
• 16:28
  Speaker 2: of stuff with including a lot of management experience, which
• 16:31
  Speaker 2: is important. So keep an eye on that. Hey, we'll
• 16:35
  Speaker 2: take some calls next. Eight hundred three to two one
• 16:38
  Speaker 2: zero seven ten is the number. Eight hundred three to
• 16:41
  Speaker 2: two one zero seven ten, R simone show on sevent
• 16:45
  Speaker 2: ten wor Hey, let's take some calls. Eight hundred three
• 16:51
  Speaker 2: to two one zero seven ten is the number. Let's
• 16:54
  Speaker 2: go to a Jacqueline in Brooklyn. Jacqueline, how you doing?
• 16:57
  Speaker 5: Hi? Mark good? A little cold, but okay, I have
• 17:01
  Speaker 5: a question for you, Nick Reiner, the son of the
• 17:06
  Speaker 5: late Rob and Michelle Reiner. I don't know if you
• 17:09
  Speaker 5: knew them at all. No one is talking at all
• 17:12
  Speaker 5: about whether or not he had any type of mental
• 17:14
  Speaker 5: illness or whether he was on the spectrum. Asperger's anything
• 17:17
  Speaker 5: like that. Yeah, Nick Reiner.
• 17:21
  Speaker 2: Yeah, obviously he was completely psycho had a million mental problems.
• 17:24
  Speaker 2: I never met I knew Rob Reiner, and I didn't
• 17:27
  Speaker 2: know the wife. I never met Nick, but just looking
• 17:29
  Speaker 2: at pictures and behavior, yeah, exactly, completely psycho this kid, yep, yep.
• 17:34
  Speaker 5: He looked like there was something very wrong with him.
• 17:37
  Speaker 5: And everyone keeps talking about his drug addiction, his homelessness,
• 17:41
  Speaker 5: but no one ever mentioned anything. And there's no information
• 17:44
  Speaker 5: available online about whether or not he had any type
• 17:48
  Speaker 5: of problems.
• 17:49
  Speaker 2: No, no, no, no, no, of course there is. And he was
• 17:50
  Speaker 2: in rehab seventeen times, and he was treated by all
• 17:53
  Speaker 2: kinds of healthcare professionals. And you could look back and
• 17:57
  Speaker 2: say Rob Reiner should have done more, done something differently,
• 18:00
  Speaker 2: but he Rob Reiner said, you know, I'd meet with
• 18:04
  Speaker 2: these experts at the clinics and the doctors, and he
• 18:06
  Speaker 2: said they had all their diplomas on the wall. So
• 18:08
  Speaker 2: I just listened to them. I don't know if you're
• 18:11
  Speaker 2: if you had a kid who was homeless, sleeping on
• 18:15
  Speaker 2: the streets, if you were a wealthy person and your
• 18:17
  Speaker 2: kid was sleeping on the streets, and apparently he was
• 18:21
  Speaker 2: homeless many different times through the years, and you know
• 18:24
  Speaker 2: why he was homeless in Texas, he was homeless, in Maine,
• 18:26
  Speaker 2: he was homeless. I don't know, would you leave your
• 18:29
  Speaker 2: kid out there? Would you do something which you haven't
• 18:31
  Speaker 2: committed in some I mean, whatever Rob Reiner did, and
• 18:35
  Speaker 2: I'm sure he did a lot, it just obviously wasn't enough.
• 18:38
  Speaker 2: He didn't do enough. Let's go to Mike in Florida. Mike,
• 18:41
  Speaker 2: how you doing.
• 18:42
  Speaker 6: Good morning, Mark, Yes, Mike, you no, just talking about
• 18:48
  Speaker 6: what you were just speaking about. You know, many drug
• 18:50
  Speaker 6: addicts are self medicating because of their mental illness. They go,
• 18:53
  Speaker 6: they get treatment, they don't like the drugs that the
• 18:56
  Speaker 6: traditionally prescribed, and they like to self medicate. So that's
• 19:00
  Speaker 6: sort of like the vicious cycle many of them in.
• 19:02
  Speaker 6: It's mental illness that causes drug addiction. But you know
• 19:06
  Speaker 6: the other thing about this story that besides the gruesome
• 19:09
  Speaker 6: nature of it and the circumstances, is the plaudits he's receiving,
• 19:13
  Speaker 6: deservedly of course, but I wonder sometimes if the gods
• 19:17
  Speaker 6: have been the president were killed, he would receive the
• 19:19
  Speaker 6: same growing. I know it's a macabre thought, but it's
• 19:25
  Speaker 6: it's I can't help thinking about it. In those terms.
• 19:28
  Speaker 2: No, it's a good point. You know. Obviously, if President
• 19:32
  Speaker 2: Trump died, you'd see them calling him every name in
• 19:35
  Speaker 2: the world, these same people. How could he speak like
• 19:38
  Speaker 2: that about Rob Reiner after he died. They do the
• 19:40
  Speaker 2: same thing with Donald Trump. And by the way, most
• 19:42
  Speaker 2: of them did the same thing to Rush Limbaugh. If
• 19:46
  Speaker 2: you go to my Twitter, we have a clip up
• 19:48
  Speaker 2: of the view where everyone on the panel, this is
• 19:50
  Speaker 2: the day after Rush died trashism calls them all kinds
• 19:54
  Speaker 2: of things, I mean, just awful. And you could find
• 19:57
  Speaker 2: a million of these same people said horrible things about
• 20:00
  Speaker 2: Rush right after he died. So to be outraged about
• 20:02
  Speaker 2: what President Trump said. Again the hypocrisy Democrats are famous for.
• 20:07
  Speaker 2: Let's go to Pam and Patterson. Pam, how you doing hi?
• 20:12
  Speaker 7: I think the other members of the Christmas party at
• 20:17
  Speaker 7: Conan's house can consider themselves lucky because I think he
• 20:21
  Speaker 7: was gearing himself up at that moment, and Bill Hayter
• 20:26
  Speaker 7: seems to have gotten his attention, and he wearing that hoodie,
• 20:30
  Speaker 7: so I think he was raging right then and there.
• 20:33
  Speaker 7: And I think when his parents decided to leave Hope,
• 20:37
  Speaker 7: you know, that broke his momentum for that.
• 20:39
  Speaker 2: Yeah, well it's interesting. You know, had he not killed
• 20:45
  Speaker 2: his parents gotten arrested, who knows that this kid would
• 20:48
  Speaker 2: have done. Who knows who he might have killed, hurt, maimed.
• 20:51
  Speaker 2: Who knows what this kid might have done had he
• 20:54
  Speaker 2: just been left to be walking out on the streets
• 20:57
  Speaker 2: and be free, he should have obviously been admitted someplace.
• 21:02
  Speaker 2: I mean, he was just a time bomb waiting to
• 21:04
  Speaker 2: go off, waiting to kill somebody. Just unbelievable story. The
• 21:09
  Speaker 2: most people have been checking into this. The most famous
• 21:13
  Speaker 2: murder of anybody in Hollywood, I mean, the most famous
• 21:15
  Speaker 2: victim murdered in Hollywood ever. Anyway, when we come back,
• 21:18
  Speaker 2: Bill O'Reilly will be with us and we'll talk to
• 21:20
  Speaker 2: him about all of this. Coming up next on seven
• 21:22
  Speaker 2: to ten WR.
• 21:24
  Speaker 3: Mark Simone, come on sevent WR.
• 21:30
  Speaker 2: Well Bill O'Reilly, the number one TV anchor for decades,
• 21:33

  Speaker 2: YouTube channel. A lot of good stuff there. Bill O'Reilly,
• 21:54
  Speaker 2: How you doing?
• 21:56
  Speaker 1: You know I'm wrapping presents that well.
• 22:02
  Speaker 2: Don't you get him wrapped at the store. Don't don't
• 22:04
  Speaker 2: you get him.
• 22:06
  Speaker 6: I'm not rapping.
• 22:07
  Speaker 1: I actually hired people to do that because I can't
• 22:11
  Speaker 1: wrap anyway. Even if I could wrap, I can't wrap.
• 22:15
  Speaker 1: But you know, it's a crazy time, as you know.
• 22:18
  Speaker 1: This is uh our last chat I think before Christmas
• 22:21
  Speaker 1: and New Yeah.
• 22:22
  Speaker 2: Right, yeah, so you know, anywhere fun. I don't know,
• 22:25
  Speaker 2: I haven't decided yet.
• 22:27
  Speaker 1: Oh last minute kind of.
• 22:28
  Speaker 2: Guy, definitely always so, well, will you be around in Christmas?
• 22:34
  Speaker 2: You're going away here?
• 22:35
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I like to stay in the area. You know.
• 22:39
  Speaker 1: That's a tradition for my family. Uh in Levittown. We
• 22:44
  Speaker 1: had great Christmases there when I was growing up. Everybody
• 22:49
  Speaker 1: in the neighborhood got together and it was a much
• 22:52
  Speaker 1: lighter time and history than it is now. Uh, that's
• 22:56
  Speaker 1: for sure. But I've kind of extended that and so
• 23:01
  Speaker 1: we'll be on Long Island and hopefully everybody will be happy.
• 23:06
  Speaker 2: Yeah. Hey, I mean your message of the day. You
• 23:10
  Speaker 2: go to Bill O'Reilly dot com every day there's a
• 23:12
  Speaker 2: message of the day. But you're talking about Trump. You've
• 23:15
  Speaker 2: known forever. I've known this guy from millions a year.
• 23:17
  Speaker 2: I just got used to it. I think you haven't
• 23:19
  Speaker 2: gotten used to it yet, because you said I don't
• 23:21
  Speaker 2: understand why he likes to walk on the wild side.
• 23:24
  Speaker 2: That's him, that's part of him.
• 23:27
  Speaker 1: Yeah, but there's a calculation that you have to make.
• 23:30
  Speaker 1: And I think the President made a mistake with the
• 23:34
  Speaker 1: Rob Ryaner stuff, and not so much a Vanity Fair
• 23:38
  Speaker 1: said it was. That was just a foolish move. Why
• 23:40
  Speaker 1: buy the Why not give the time to Mark Simon
• 23:44
  Speaker 1: or Bill O'Reilly. You know who's going to give you
• 23:46
  Speaker 1: a fair assessment. Why do you want to go to
• 23:50
  Speaker 1: Vanity Fair out in Hollywood where they all hate you,
• 23:53
  Speaker 1: and you know they're not going to write anything good
• 23:55
  Speaker 1: about you. I don't understand that. But there comes a point,
• 24:02
  Speaker 1: and I know this to be true, where Donald Trump
• 24:05
  Speaker 1: wants his legacy in history to be cemented in a
• 24:09
  Speaker 1: positive way. And he has got an amazing story to tell.
• 24:15
  Speaker 1: Nobody's ever done what he's done as far as getting elected,
• 24:19
  Speaker 1: as far as trying to solve as many problems as
• 24:22
  Speaker 1: he's taken on. He's really got a good story to tell,
• 24:26
  Speaker 1: but it goes over the cliff with the Rob Reiner stuff,
• 24:30
  Speaker 1: and that is yes, you're correct, he's playing buoyant. He's
• 24:34
  Speaker 1: going to say he wants to say, and all that
• 24:36
  Speaker 1: has worked for him. It has all worked for him.
• 24:42
  Speaker 1: But now he's in a different stage of his life.
• 24:47
  Speaker 1: That's what I'm trying to get across when we speak. Now,
• 24:50
  Speaker 1: you've got to start cementing your legacy, and the first
• 24:54
  Speaker 1: step to that is winning the midterm elections next year.
• 24:57
  Speaker 1: If you lose, your legacy is going to be that.
• 25:00
  Speaker 2: Yeah, well, of course you're one hundred percent right, totally right.
• 25:04
  Speaker 2: But again, I've known the guy from millions of years
• 25:07
  Speaker 2: and I've been hearing people say this forever and I
• 25:10
  Speaker 2: can't tell you why, but this is what he does.
• 25:13
  Speaker 2: He enjoys it. It's like when you see a normal,
• 25:15
  Speaker 2: distinguished guy and every night he goes out and gets
• 25:17
  Speaker 2: drunk out of his mind. Why does he do it?
• 25:19
  Speaker 2: I don't know.
• 25:19
  Speaker 1: I mean this is a you know, look, Trump likes
• 25:23
  Speaker 1: the action. Yeah, okay, he likes just like somebody goes
• 25:28
  Speaker 1: to casino. He's been in fifteen football games. He likes
• 25:34
  Speaker 1: the action, and he knows when he throws something out
• 25:39
  Speaker 1: on social media that the next day or two is
• 25:42
  Speaker 1: going to be dominated by what he says, and that
• 25:46
  Speaker 1: engages him. Absolutely true, But there is a selective process.
• 25:53
  Speaker 1: You're going to have the action without hurting yourself. And
• 25:57
  Speaker 1: that's what I'm trying to get across.
• 25:59
  Speaker 2: Oh, you're right, but I'm you know, It's like I
• 26:00
  Speaker 2: love to watch the football game and then there's a
• 26:02
  Speaker 2: guy next to me who bet fortune on it and
• 26:04
  Speaker 2: he's having a heart attack during the game. I don't
• 26:07
  Speaker 2: know how you can enjoy that, but there are guys
• 26:09
  Speaker 2: that enjoy that, and that's trump you like that.
• 26:11
  Speaker 1: No, I mean, look, I'm not a psychiatrist. All I'm
• 26:15
  Speaker 1: doing is trying to say, look, and this is my
• 26:17
  Speaker 1: whole career, more than fifty years. And you know, I
• 26:21
  Speaker 1: was at immediate party. Again, I never go to these things,
• 26:24
  Speaker 1: but Dan abrams through it and he's a good guy,
• 26:27
  Speaker 1: and so I did go. And you know, I'm the icon, No,
• 26:31
  Speaker 1: a last man standing, five year old, fifty years in
• 26:36
  Speaker 1: this business and the reason I'd lasted so long and
• 26:40
  Speaker 1: continue to do well is because I want the best
• 26:46
  Speaker 1: for the country. That is what I do. And I
• 26:53
  Speaker 1: clearly spell out why I say what I say, and
• 26:59
  Speaker 1: I think that Donald Trump has been a very good
• 27:02
  Speaker 1: president policy wise, you know. And I understand his anger
• 27:07
  Speaker 1: because the same thing happened to me at a much
• 27:09
  Speaker 1: more limited thing. But I've been attacked, you know, thirty
• 27:14
  Speaker 1: out of the fifty years, the first twenty were being
• 27:16
  Speaker 1: a reporter. So I was attack being a reporter once
• 27:19
  Speaker 1: I came into the news analysis area and my family, me, everybody,
• 27:25
  Speaker 1: and you are furious when that happens, and bitter, and
• 27:30
  Speaker 1: that is what Donald Trump is consumed by these people.
• 27:35
  Speaker 1: Just yesterday, the grass Leaders senator from Iowa puts out
• 27:41
  Speaker 1: that there's no probable cause to raid my alago for
• 27:44
  Speaker 1: the top secret documents. Then he did it anyway, and
• 27:49
  Speaker 1: nobody will be held to account. Well, he drives Trump nuts,
• 27:54
  Speaker 1: and it should. He's a human being. I got a
• 27:59
  Speaker 1: list of people that I like to visit and I
• 28:01
  Speaker 1: won't be bringing Christmas presents to him, but I'm a
• 28:05
  Speaker 1: little bit more restrained.
• 28:08
  Speaker 2: Well, but that's you, and you've always done a great show.
• 28:11
  Speaker 2: You don't cross the line. But I've seen other hosts,
• 28:13
  Speaker 2: and you know who some of them are, They've always
• 28:15
  Speaker 2: got to cross the line. They've always got to do
• 28:17
  Speaker 2: something outrageous, They've always got to get in a little trouble.
• 28:20
  Speaker 1: They enjoy it, but that's because they don't have anything else.
• 28:23
  Speaker 1: They got to live and die on controversy. That's why
• 28:26
  Speaker 1: they make their money. But Trump's got other stuff, and
• 28:31
  Speaker 1: that's when we speak. That's what tried to cross to him,
• 28:36
  Speaker 1: because he knows that. You know, I wrote in fronting
• 28:39
  Speaker 1: the Presidents, and I didn't rank him, but you can
• 28:42
  Speaker 1: clearly see which presidents were successful and which presidents weren't.
• 28:46
  Speaker 1: And then Trump inherent's the second worst president in our history.
• 28:50
  Speaker 1: Joe Biden, all of that mess he has to deal with,
• 28:54
  Speaker 1: and he's dealt with it pretty effectively. But you really
• 28:58
  Speaker 1: need Rob Reiner. You don't. You can be in the
• 29:03
  Speaker 1: action without hurting yourself. That is my message.
• 29:07
  Speaker 2: That's a good message, But it's not him. The only
• 29:10
  Speaker 2: guy I've ever seen change maybe Howard Stern, who was,
• 29:14
  Speaker 2: you know, always getting himself into trouble and then a
• 29:16
  Speaker 2: couple of years ago decided I'm gonna clean all that up.
• 29:18
  Speaker 2: I'm gonna be woke, I'm gonna be That's the only
• 29:20
  Speaker 2: one of those guys I've ever seen switch and actually change.
• 29:24
  Speaker 1: And I don't think Trump has to change, he just
• 29:28
  Speaker 1: has to modify a little bit. I think it would
• 29:34
  Speaker 1: be bad for him to change because he gets a
• 29:38
  Speaker 1: lot done by sheer force personality, by just his presence.
• 29:44
  Speaker 1: So why would you change that. I wouldn't, But you
• 29:48
  Speaker 1: have a selective menu of things that you can tweet about,
• 29:53
  Speaker 1: and when somebody's throat is cut, I don't know if
• 29:57
  Speaker 1: I would go into that precinct.
• 30:00
  Speaker 2: No, of course I wouldn't either. But and he should modify,
• 30:03
  Speaker 2: but let's not hold our breath waiting for it. I
• 30:07
  Speaker 2: don't think it's good.
• 30:08
  Speaker 1: Look, it's not my job to be his campaign manager.
• 30:12
  Speaker 1: I'm not Colonel Tom Parker with hels Okay. I'm looking
• 30:17
  Speaker 1: out for the country. And he's a strong president who's
• 30:22
  Speaker 1: done a lot of good and a lot of Americans
• 30:25
  Speaker 1: will never admit it because they believe what they want
• 30:27
  Speaker 1: to believe. But he has. He's brought a lot of
• 30:34
  Speaker 1: different approaches to solving problems and has been successful more
• 30:39
  Speaker 1: than he's not been successful. So you don't want to
• 30:43
  Speaker 1: blunt that. I don't think like creating unnecessary barriers for yourself.
• 30:51
  Speaker 1: But you're right, I mean again, I mean, I can
• 30:54
  Speaker 1: only do what I can do. I can talk to
• 30:57
  Speaker 1: guys like you. I can do the no Spin news
• 31:00
  Speaker 1: as I can go on news Nation, I can write
• 31:02
  Speaker 1: my books. I can't do any more than that. But
• 31:06
  Speaker 1: I am I have to tell the truth. I'm compelled
• 31:10
  Speaker 1: to tell it, and that I think has worked for me.
• 31:15
  Speaker 2: Well again, you're not wrong, You're not wrong. But it's
• 31:19
  Speaker 2: always going to be this way with him. Hey, by
• 31:21
  Speaker 2: the way, Christmas, book is a great Christmas present. You
• 31:25
  Speaker 2: don't have to go in the store and look for
• 31:27
  Speaker 2: a book is a perfect present. People.
• 31:29
  Speaker 1: Yeah, you know your life in this very troubling age
• 31:33
  Speaker 1: where evil seems to be overwhelming us, people need to
• 31:37
  Speaker 1: know about how it assembles, how it gains power, and
• 31:44
  Speaker 1: how what you can do as a human being a
• 31:46
  Speaker 1: good person to mitigate it. Because as much as evil
• 31:50
  Speaker 1: in a Bondai Beach or Brown University, it's in your
• 31:54
  Speaker 1: neighborhood and sometimes in your own family, as the Whiners
• 31:58
  Speaker 1: found out, And when you see it, you can't turn away.
• 32:03
  Speaker 1: That's the theme of the book. But what I've done
• 32:05
  Speaker 1: is to save people money, because I know money is
• 32:09
  Speaker 1: tight with the insurance payments you got to make, and
• 32:12
  Speaker 1: we all have to make and the food. I put
• 32:14
  Speaker 1: all my books together, fifteen of them, thirteen killing, two
• 32:18
  Speaker 1: confronting for a very very reasonable price on Bill O'Reilly
• 32:23
  Speaker 1: dot com. You give those books away as presents. You
• 32:27
  Speaker 1: will save yourself hundreds of dollars by doing that. And
• 32:31
  Speaker 1: these books are in demand. People want them. Sound like
• 32:34
  Speaker 1: a tie or something, you know, if you give somebody
• 32:37
  Speaker 1: a tie, because in a droid of a seat. Again, No,
• 32:41
  Speaker 1: so you know, we're all we can make a lot
• 32:43
  Speaker 1: more money than we make. But I'm not in business
• 32:46
  Speaker 1: to do that. I'm in business to try, as I said,
• 32:48
  Speaker 1: to make the country a little bit better, a little
• 32:51
  Speaker 1: bit more comfortable.
• 32:52
  Speaker 2: Yeah, well it's a great Christmas viasent. You get one book,
• 32:54
  Speaker 2: but the best deal is the fifteen best sellers, and
• 32:57
