9:00 pm
apply. word of the day, don't be persnickety.. for being here tonight. we will see you tomorrow. >> bill: "the o'reilly factor" from l.a. is on tonight. >> i do want say to you that in our sanctuary cities, our people are notisobeying the law. >> bill: that statement is flat-out untrue. a colossal deception. one of the reasons the democratic party is having so much trouble in america. tonight, we will have a special report. >> was about an interesting rollout? a reality tv rollout? i don't know about this man to tell you that i will be applauding him all the way to the finish line. >> bill: if the democrats reject judges gorsuch, who seems to be a very competent juror, what does that say about that country? lou dobbs has some thoughts. ♪
9:01 pm
also, head, will lady gaga use the super bowl halftime show to his bow to gibberish? martha maccallum is investigating. caution, you are about to enter the "no spin zone." from southern california, "the factor" begins right now. ♪ >> bill: hi, i am bill o'reilly, reporting from los angeles. thanks for watching us tonight. is the democratic party in serious trouble? that is a subject of this evening's "talking points" memo. first of all, we need two vibrant parties in this country. robust debate and different points of view strengthen the nation. the big change has taken place, loyal opposition and politics is now devolving into just opposition. though boyle has left the building. in president trump's case, no matter what he does, there are
9:02 pm
some democrats who will oppose him. and that is harmful to america. also, there is deception. last night, house minority leader nancy pelosi held a town hall. a subject of illegal alien violence was raised. >> in 2010, one of the illegals slaughtered my son. he tortured him, he beat him, he tied him up like an animal. and he set him on fire. and i am not a one-story mother. this happens every day because there are no laws enforced. >> there is nothing, i'm sure, that can compare to the grief that you have. so, i pray for you. but i do want to say to you, that in our sanctuary cities, our people are not disobeying the law. >> bill: that is flat-out untrue. a deceit that is outrageous. congress room and pelosi well knows that in san francisco, her hometown, an illegal alien
9:03 pm
departed five times is now charged with murdering a 33-year-old. that meant, 54-year-old juan francisco lopez sanchez will be put on trial soon. but the verdict on san francisco itself, is in. guilty of failing to hold sanchez, even though the feds asked for him to be detained. they let him go. somebody tell nancy pelosi. now, all over the country, americans are outraged like a beautiful woman like kate steinle was gone down by a foreign felon who had illegally crossed back into this country six times. yet, mrs. pelosi has the gall to say that in the sanctuary city of san francisco, our people are not disobeying the law. did sanchez disobey the law mrs. pelosi? again, you told a bowl bold fly, madam. if one of the most leaders of the democratic party is that arrogant and dishonest, what is that say about the party in
9:04 pm
general? mrs. pelosi did not stop there. continuing to criticize our economic system. >> we are capitalist. and that is the way it is. however, we do think that capitalism is not necessarily meeting the needs for the income inequality that we have in our country. >> bill: so, americans that are not ideological, hearing this kind of stuff, the sanctuary cities are acceptable, that capitalism is not "meeting the needs of our people," they turn away. buthe democratic leadership doesn't seem to understand that. even though they los the election. in fact, senator tim kaine, who ran with hillary clinton, but was not a factor in the boat, pretty much disappearing during the campaign, is proud of his party's rebellious stance. >> what we have got to do is fight in congress, fight in the courts, fight in the streets, find online, fight at the ballot box. now, there is the momentum to be able to do this, and we are not afraid of the popular outcry. we are energized by it and that
9:05 pm
is going to help us do our job and do it better. >> bill: senator keynes that he is not afraid of the popular outcry? well, he should be. "talking points" wants a strong democratic party, as well as a vibrant republican party. that is the way our nation functions best. but right now, there is a political civil war that is actually harming the usa. until politicians stop the deceit and embrace policies that help all americans, that war will continue. and that is the my mom open. now, for the top story reaction, joining us from new york city, eric bolling on geraldo rivera. where am i going wrong? >> in terms of the undocumented immigrants and the crimes they committed, and whether or not they commit more crimes per capita then citizens do, you and i have had that debate, you clearly won the debate, among our audience, the majority of the voters in the majority of the states that that undocumented immigrants were an issue so compelling, so profound, they compel donald trump into the
9:06 pm
white house. but in terms of the democratic party, let me just say that in my view, they will be more effective as an opposition than they ever were when they were in power. they were a dysfunctional power player, i think i'm in now, in their weakness, sanctuary cities is a great example. they are not shrinking, they are spreading. no, you have four states, california, rhode island, vermont, colorado, washington state, oregon, 39 major cities, all of the biggest ones, new york, chicago, los angeles, baltimore, et cetera, you have six -- i'm sorry, 364 counties that are sanctuary counties. the law enforcement, the local law enforcement have deemed it necessary that they have the trust of the undocumented immigrants, so, they can feel free to call 911. >> bill: all of the places that you named are very liberal precincts, where politicians depend on the migrant votes to win, the immigrant votes to win.
9:07 pm
>> i totally disagree with that. >> bill: i think the data back that up, a guy like rahm emanuel and bill de blasio -- they couldn't win. >> it is a front line of the culture class. right now, sanctuary cities will be the front line, it will be blue against gray. cities and states -- >> bill: would you say that nancy and pelosi allowed rager ordered something outrageous last night? >> talking about sanchez about a murderer, i think you use the egregious anecdote to make a general point. i think it is very unfair. again, i brought up this argument to you. i apologized, -- >> bill: nancy pelosi flat-out stated that people in sanctuary cities do not do so disobey the law, it it is a lie. is it not? >> they are saying that local law enforcement is in disobeying the law. either way, there is a federal law that says, if you are
9:08 pm
legal, -- >> bill: she said the people. she didn't say law enforcement. >> whatever. but geraldo saying the reason there are more and more sanctuary cities is because local law enforcement doesn't want to use the illegals as snitches, so, to solve crimes, that is ludicrous. the reason why there are more and more -- the reason why this is happening, is because there has been no penalty for breaking federal law. once there will be, if the feds, if donald trump is true to what he says, if you are sanctuary city, we will cut off federal funding, watch how many of the cities or states say, that sanctuary idea wasn't such a great idea for us. >> bill: we'll see. people ought to know that the sanctuary order from the federal government is, if you have any legal undocumented person in jail, in jail, you have to inform i.c.e., homeland security. that's it -- that is the order. anything that you do with gardeners, chambermaids, the
9:09 pm
left lies about it, lies about it! says that the feds and trump want to round up all these innocent people, just working hard. they lie about what the sanctuary is defying. the sanctuary is defying that simple order. you locked somebody up but you have to inform. >> i agree. but they have the absolute, constitutional, and legal right to comply or not comply as they will. it is -- speak of the supreme court of united states, the tenth amendmf the constitution of the united states, all say immigration is a federal problem, local and state cannot be commandeered by the federal government to be immigration officers. >> bill: no, no. they have to obey federal law. bolling gets the last law. >> you just said it, geraldo.
9:10 pm
there is nothing in the constitution that says, that someone who is here illegally should have a right, a right to stay. is there a privilege under some sort in sanctuary cities? perhaps. but that will stop again. i will go back to the numbers. as soon as the numbers -- they are staggering. hundreds of millions of dollars in some cases, billions of dollars that could be pulled back from these local municipalities. watch how fast they cave on sanctuaries. >> bill: we will see if bolling is correct. gentlemen, thank you. next on "the rundown," california says it may declare itself a sanctuary state. that will certainly lead to a showdown with the trump administration. later, dennis miller says he has a solution to the big divide in america. those reports after when heartburn hits, fight back fast with tums smoothies. it starts dissolving the instant it touches your tongue. and neutralizes stomach acid at the source. ♪ tum -tum -tum -tum smoothies! only from tums the markets change...

9:14 pm
sanctuary for undocumented immigrants. in addition, the city of san francisco has filed a federal lawsuit against president trump himself, saying he has no right to withhold federal funding from saint shorey cities. now in los angeles, dr. john eastman, the. let's take the sanctuary state first. can a state just declare itself an entity that is not going to obey federal law? >> the thing, the officials can be commandeered by the federal government. but we are talking about what they can be required to do an exchange for getting a lot of money from the federal government. $330 billion a year, california and all the cities are getting. all of that is ripped. one of the conditions on those grounds is that you comply with federal law. a federal law is very clear here. no state can tell it's officials that they can cooperate with i.c.e. >> bill: okay, so, technically, california can come according to the constitution,
9:15 pm
call itself whatever it wants. but they can lose, then, $330 billion a year. right? save a lot of money. >> it is. i think the trump administration would absolutely do that, even though that would cause mass chaos. >> even more interesting. another federal law that says that they are required to do that. that any recipient of a grant that continually flouts federal law, they have to do it. they have to give additional opportunity to come into compliance with the federal law but at some point, they have to say, if you are refusing to cut federal law, you are not eligible for these grants. >> bill: here's what i don't understand. as i just said to rivera and boling, the pit of this is, the federal government wants san francisco and all of the sanctuary cities to inform themo jail behind bars, who is undocument. >> that is right. that is it. that's right. asking for information has been held by the supreme court, not even to become endearing, which creates the tenth amendment problem.
9:16 pm
which is giving information. this federal law specifically says you can't -- >> bill: why, you live here, why wouldn't any municipality cooperate with that? why? >> you would think they would. we are the defying people who are real threat to the community. they have become so ideologically hard lines this question that they don't want the enforcement. they just don't want enforcement of the immigration laws. >> bill: no matter even if you are criminal? >> that's right. even if we you are a criminal. that is what led to the cates family murder. >> bill: it certainly did. in a lawsuit from -- president trump does not have the constitutional right to withhold money from the city. where does that stand? >> i am very encouraged by the fact that all of these officials are not recognizing the apartments of the tenth amendment and states rights. the tenth amendment, they forget to read the tenth amendment. it said any powers not delegated to the national government are reserved to the states are the people. the power of over immigration is
9:17 pm
clearly delegated to the federal government. the only question is, can the state's beauty asked to provide information to help the federal government and can bet they be compelled to do so in exchange for money, as a condition on th. there is no question the federal government can make that a connection on federal money. >> bill: okay. if you are right and that is how the courts rule, you know you are going to get some judges that that you are wrong, you know that. ideological judges. so, it will wind its way through the courts. the san francisco people are saying, the president doesn't have the power to withhold federal money. does that have any basis? >> no. in fact, there's a federal statute, i'm drawing a blank on the number, that specifically says, federal grants have to be given, you acknowledge, receipt of a grant that you agree to comply with federal law. so, all of these grand recipients are putting these grants at risks in creating the potential that they will be rendered ineligible for future grants if they don't come into compliance with federal law. >> bill: i find it interesting. i didn't know this until you just said it. the trump administration is
9:18 pm
compelled by federal law to punish the sanctuary cities, if they do decide in california to call it a sanctuary state, they have to punish them, they have to withdraw the money. >> the federal law says that the president shall add new conditions on the money to bring them into compliance. but if they continue to refuse, at some point, to declare them ineligible for those federal grants. >> bill: okay. if sessions, senator sessions, gets confirmed as attorney general, he will be fairly aggressive, i think, and enforcing all of these things. >> i think, as well. findings of lower that will say this is unconstitutional, for money ideological judges, unconstitutional as anything they don't like. but i think when it gets to the supreme court, a full complement of the supreme court with neil gorsuch as the new associate justice, i think they will find at least 5-4 and hopefully come a larger majority of the court to say what the president is dog is perfectly okay. >> bill: thank you, doctor, for coming in.

directly ahead, dennis kucinich says president obama is responsible for the refugee problem. wow. lou dobbs has thoughts on how the president rolled out that refugee executive order. also, is the nfl worried about lady gaga spouting political stuff? during the super bowl halftime show. up ahead.
9:20 pm
9:21 pm
9:22 pm
♪ >> bill: personal story segment tonight, as we were reporting, they would not be refugee crisis if president obama and the west have dealt with iraq and syria and a responsible way. yesterday, on fox news, dennis kucinich, very liberal guy, said this. >> let's face something here. john donald trump didn't create these laws. wars create refugees and
9:23 pm
president obama, both in syria and in lebanon has backed conflictshich have created refugees. so, that is something, if he is involved in the debate, he should have to answer that. mr. kucinich joins us from cleveland. we both agreed that president obama is partially responsible for this. explain your point of view for us. >> i'm opposed to u.s. intervention, it costs our nation dearly. $6 trillion since 9/11. we have a right to defend ourselves. though, iraq, president bush's watch, created an enormous amount of refugees. libya and syria created a lot of refugees, that was president obama's watch. if you don't have wars, you don't create refugees. there has to be some responsibility that has to be taken by the president. >> bill: okay. i see it differently because in syria, which is ground zero for the refugee problem, and that is the country that president trump
9:24 pm
has said, we are not going to take into refugees until we can figure out a better vetting system, they are, we didn't really do anything. we didn't intervene, we let assad, the butcher, kill his people, which created a refugee situation all on its own. we have nothing to do with that. am i wrong? >> bill come i hate to say this, but you are wrong. the bill the u.s. has been involved in covert action working with turkey, saudi arabia, and qatar in finag jihadist school who come for maybe 100 different countries io knock off the syrian government and establish a caliphate. >> bill: a covert action against assad. but that is a small part of it. assad would have murdered these people anyway. because they don't like him. >> no, no. >> i am not defending assad. you have to look at syria is a pluralist society. the ass regime has opponents,
9:25 pm
i have talked to the opponents, they don't want people coming in from outside syria to try to upend their country. no more than we in america want china coming in. >> bill: true, but there still will be refugees because of the civil war in that country. when you say you don't want americans abroad, you have more in common with trump than you do obama. because trump, he doesn't want to go into these countries. he has made that quite clear. in this suspension of the travel to the united states, with the president is clearly saying, if anyone wants to pay attention, is that these states mentioned, syria, iraq, libya, somalia, on and on, they don't have any central authority. anybody can get on a plane and being kennedy airport in ten hours. we have to figure out how to better this because their governments are all collapsed. this is not an unusual
9:26 pm
unreasonable position, is it? >> you know what, i carry this pocket constitution. the first amendment says no religious test. >> bill: is a national test on these countries. in those countries, you can come here, either. >> we have to call it what it is. it is a ban on muslims. america -- >> bill: is not a ban on muslims. if you are a libyan christian, you can't come here. you know that is true. >> there has been some interpretations that christians can come in, we shouldn't have a religious test. bill -- >> bill: i don't have a religious test. >> by the constitution, no religious test. >> bill: you know i like you. this is where you go off the rails. i present the facts that people in those countries, no matter what religion they are, cannot come here temporarily, then, you pull out your constitution and distortith the order is. that is going off the rails.
9:27 pm
>> bill, it's like a compliment for you to tell me that i am distorting things. i just want to say, bill o'reilly, no religious test. max. as far as who created these wars, donald trump didn't create the worst. that is pretty obvious. >> bill: dennis, thank you very much. plenty more had as "the factor" moves along this evening. miller says he has a solution to our divided country. then, martha maccallum looking into the possibility that lady gaga may turn the super bowl halftime show into a political circus. up next. lou dobbs on whether president of trump code abandoned the refugee -- could have handled at the refugee problem differently. the refugee problem differently. stay tuned for those

9:31 pm
>> bill: unresolved problem segment tonight, the far left still hysterical over the presidential executive order that stops some refugees from ca temporary basis. >> any law that is divorced from justice is not the law. it is tyranny. this is a sanctioned government sanctioned religious persecutio. it will not keep america safe. it is not about national security. this is about white supremacists. >> bill: sure, it is. joining us now from new york city, lou dobbs. so, sane people, doesn't include some of the critics, know that the overreaction to the executive order is a bit crazy. i mean, i can understand some people opposing it.
9:32 pm
but to go all of this for a temporary order that basically says, we need to redo our security mechanism so that people in somalia who come here unattended, there is no government in somalia, we have a mechanism to know who they are. i mean, that is a legitimate point of view. however, the way that president trump handled the rollout gave his enemies a lot of ammunition, did it not? >> it gave them ammunition but i really believe, bill, no matter what he did, it would have been looked upon -- >> bill: let's stay on what he did. friday afternoon, okay, nobody out explaining it before it happened. nobody available after it happened. just plumped it. >> the administration has a perfectly good reason for not having done a broad consensus
9:33 pm
building program. they wanted not to announce it specifically so that they would not be inviting in terrorists and those who wanted to come to this country knowing full well that there would be an extreme vetting program put in place by this administration >> bill: yeah, i understan that is the explanation. but it would have been hard for terrorists within a few hours to get on my planet come to new york. >> possible. >> bill: the way they did it, the trump administration, they just jammed it out there. they didn't explain it as it came out. they did it on a friday. they gave the anti-trump people so much propaganda to demonize him, didn't they? >> i would say this to you. the anti-trump people are precisely the same people tonight as they were thursday, before the order went into effect. the attempt to propagandize has been going on nonstop since it
9:34 pm
became clear that this was -- that donald trump was a very successful and likely victorious presidential candidate. from the time he was elected. i mean, we only see his enemies met within the ideology goal (if you have elizabeth ward with a bullhorn at the airport sharing on folks. you have got these soros funded demonstrations. >> bill: you can diffuse some of that. although, i have to say, i saw a reuters call come over the president is actually come and i predicted this would happen, gaining in popularity, over this refugee order. but i am always to the fact that if you do something and you really, firmly believe it, put it out the best way you can. put it out with full explanatio explanation. go one lou dobbs, explain it on his show, millions are watching him. all that. >> i think that it's a terrific idea, except for the part where
9:35 pm
i don't believe that donald trump, as president of the united states, should be involved in the administration of this program at this level. he issued orders, others implemented. this administration -- >> bill: but it is his responsibility to put america in the best light. >> think about this. i mean, theresa may, the prime minister of the uk, is before parliament, just with a scream, excoriating donald trump with whom she has just had an entirely successful meeting over this extreme vetting order, interfering in u.s. politics. i mean, who are these people? since when -- >> bill: i'm not justifying the people. i just think it's better for america, all all right, all ofr policies are clearly explained, as they happen. >> see if you will accept just this element, if you will complement to what you are thinking. and that is, for the first time,
9:36 pm
we have a president who is making it absolutely clear to the entire world, whether they like it or not, that we are going to take our sovereignty seriously, the safety of our people seriously, and the security of our nation will be the president's primary policy and purpose. i think he has succeeded in tha that. >> bill: he certainly has sent the message. all right, lou dobbs, everybody. one footnote, the contributing factor podcast starring robert u might want to check out. it is all about judge gorsuch tonight. you can hear it on billoreilly.com or itunes. we come right back from aloe a. dennis miller has been thinking about how to heal holistically, the big political divide inin mn lady gaga possibly creating chaos at the super bowl halftime show. write back from california. ♪

9:42 pm
i got this from the great scholar, gwyneth paltrow, when her and her husband, chris martin from coldplay, broke up. they called it a "conscious uncoupling." i think it might be time for a conscious and coupling. i put together some artwork on mobility. it might be time to pick albums, who gets theog and split up. i think we need two barter balls. i think if there is a west coast and east coast and then, there is in the middle. i would make that country on the left, california, washington, oregon, then, open it up to mexico, too. call it mexico. you have that country over there. then, the right-hand side, you have the bubble, that is worthy of the northeast quarter door, where the all the intellectuals live. then, something around chicago, a mini wall there. then, i was listening to elon musk, the tesla guide this become a smart guy, he says we should make the infrastructure tunnels. and i thought, why not build an arnold schwarzenegger running

[speaking german] >> welcome to america! >> you get out of here. >> go back home. >> these are my parents. >> thank you. >> this is the beer we drink. have a budweiser.
9:50 pm
>> bill: joining us now from new york city, martha maccallum. so, budweiser spending a lot of money. what is it, $2 million for 30 seconds? >> 12 to $14 million to make the ad. it is five and a half million for 30 seconds. it is a huge investment, bill. 30 >> bill: do they expect controversy over that? >> i think they will get it. it or not the expected it when th started. they were putting together an american dream story, which is a very interesting story. he felt one of the best american brands in the country but it is sort of simultaneously happening with all of the issues cropping up around the country. they put this ad, they wrote it by thanksgiving and they shot the whole thing by january. ironically, they delivered on january 27th, which with the exact same day that this pause or travel ban, whatever you want to call it, was announced by president trump. >> bill: i think it is an
9:51 pm
effective ad, getting people talking, that is what budweiser wants. yet, i don't know whether it is true or not. i don't know adolphus busch, i don't know what happened to him. but if it is true, i think it is legitimate. >> i think it is beautifully shot, it does evoke the american dream. generations of immigrants that have come to this country, i think you could make arguments on both sides, in terms of the process for coming to this country and building your own company here. but a lot of people are going to look at this and say, see, he is walking through the streets and people are telling him he doesn't belong here. that is what is happening now. >> bill: that messages and there on purpose. i wonder what happened to harry budweiser, do we know where he came from? i think think you might have bm paraguay. >> i don't know if there was a hairy budweiser. but they got together, and the family who own the company since 2008, now, they have taken this opportunity to talk about adolphus busch, who came over

from belgium, actually. they don't on the company anymore. >> bill: all right, now, more power to them. i like ads that are thought-provoking. now, talking about thought-provoking, lady gaga, one of the great political scientists of our era, is performing at halftime, and the nfl, you know, she could do or say any politic stuff a she has in the past. roll the tape. >> you have endorsed hillary clinton. i mean, what is it you think that she is going to do for the usa that he will not? >> i think she will do a good job. some people want to win... racists. races. other people want to be president of the united states. >> bill: so profound. the national football league, are they worried that lady gaga is going to get up there between

songs and say something nasty? >> they know where she is coming from. if they were really worried, they wouldn't have chosen lady gaga. just like with the ad, they want everyone to tune in. there has been the back and forth, did they give lady gaga a gag order, so to speak in politics? they say, no, we didn't do it, she is a performer. we know that everyone we work with understands this is a moment for families across america. well, that idea went out the window with janet jackson and with beyonce's black panther last time. if they really wanted to do that, they would go back to the paul mccartney noncontroversial performance. clearly, they are stoking the fire. there is no way that lady gaga does make some kind of political statement during this appearance. >> bill: martha maccallum is betting, everyone, that lady gaga is going to use her worldwide platform to inject politics into the super bowl halftime show. you are betting that she is going to do that. >> do you think it is a risky bet, bill? i mean -- why wouldn't she? why wouldn't you take that

moment to do that? >> bill: maybe she'll say to herself, gee, i know people want to be entertained that i'm not going to offend anybody. >> you don't think that she woud sit down perhaps and think about what the downside is of imposing her rocky view of the world on everybody? >> i don't. i really don't. let me pause for a moment and think about it. i will make a profound statement like she does. no, i don't think so. >> bill: i think if she does say anything politic, then, the nfl guys like ray lewis, they will sack her. >> [laughs] that would be a first. that will be an interesting part of the performance. i would stick around for that. >> bill: martha maccallum, everybody. factor type of the day, i need your help regarding my upcoming super bowl interview with president trump.
