5:00 pm
gretawire.com. up next, the o'reilly factor, good night from new york city. the o'reilly factor is on. tonight: justice kayleah is a little more nuances in his criticism. i could have sworn he was already hiding his head in a flesh tone cinch pack. >> far left people celebrity their victories in the supreme court. tonight charles krauthammer andly analyze why america is changing so so rapidly. >> escapee and convicted ki and captured officers bringing him in alive. >> now that the two escaped killers are neutralized, one dead and the other in critical condition what really happened in the jail break? we will have the inside story. >> when you are in penn station, what kind of things do you do you? >> well, right now walking
5:01 pm
around with something to eat and then i was going to go see a movie. >> also ahead homeless people taking over penn station in new york city. this happening because of mayor de blasio and watters it right in the middle of it. >> it's a good place to come if you are homeless. >> caution, you are about to enter the no spin zone. the factor begins right now. ♪ ♪ the subject of this evening's talking points memo. the court's acceptance of obamacare and gay marriage was predictable. in fact, is our legal team accurately foretold that what would happen last week. the supreme court is made up of nine individuals who see america in very different ways. some see a country that needs to be changed. others believe we're a settled nation where established laws should be
5:02 pm
upheld. generally speaking, we have an activist court not judges that are able to put ideology aside. chief justice john roberts provides a vivid example. he believes that congress should make the laws, not judges. that was the intent of the founders. it's in writing. so roberts jumped through legal hoops to justify obamacare no matter what the legal problems. roberts ignored them. deferring to approval of the ad fordable healthcare law to. his credit is he is consistent. he voted against gay marriage because again he doesn't want the court to make law which the gay nuptial decision certainly does: most of the other justices are consistent as well. they often decides cases through a prism of what they believe to be right for the country. not what our original system of checks and balances dictates. here is now crazy the system
5:03 pm
has become in the supreme court. liberal justices ginsburg and kagan each presided over gay marriage. in ginsburg's case, four of them. yet, they did not recuse themselves when the issue came before the court. come on. we either have a fair legal system or we don't. and right now we don't. the factor's philosophy has been consistent with for nearly 20 years. i believe every american, each one of us, should have an equal shot to pursue happiness and prosperity and that the government must provide oversight to provide that opportunity for all. but i do not believe the government has a right to oppose -- impose upon me or any other american rules that deny my freedom to express myself, practice it my faith or earn my living. if a baker believes marriage is a sack correct sacroment
5:04 pm
even though the supreme court has ruled gay marriage legal it has no constitutional right to force any american to participate in it. to do so tears up the social contract forged by the founders. americans who sincerely believe that judges do have the authority to redefine marriage have a perfect right to celebrate their victory. provided they are following their consciouses. however, they do not have a right to demonize who disagree based on the same principle, conscience. yesterday fox news analyst father jonathan morris walking in new york city close to where the gay pride parade was taking place. father morris reports two men spit on him. he was in clerical garb. he will tell the story on hannity tonight. oppression runs both ways and all americans should consider that for example
5:05 pm
justice scalia wrote a well thought out dissent to the gay marriage decision. he was immediately mocked. >> justice scalia was a little more nuanced in his criticism, writing that if he ever joined an opinion that began the way justice kennedy's majority decision did, quote: i would hide my head in a bag. i could have sworn he was already hiding his head in a fleshed tone cinch sack. please come on my show, sir. scalia also took issue with the majority's view that marriage is about free expression grumbling expression sure enough is a freedom but anyone in a long lasting marriage will attest that that happy state con districts rather than expands what one can prudently say. which is both a fiery defense and the world longest lock horn comic. >> in a few months colbert will be competing against fallen and kimmel both talented and successful
5:06 pm
guys. evidence might want to think about alienating traditional americans to the extent he has. it could be very bad for business. the deciding vote in the gay marriage decision was justice kennedy, a good man. he clearly and honestly wrote that his decision was brim -- primarily based on emotion that compassion dictates that gay americans have equal marital status. thus kennedy forged legal opinion using the concept of greater good. there is nothing in the constitution that allows the redesks of marriage. nothing. on a strictly constitutional basis, the decision has to come from congress to change a law. the supreme court deviated from that dictum as it has in the past for political and personal reasons. now, on healthcare, the issue is, again greater good. obamacare is obviously yet
5:07 pm
another federal entitlement program designed to help poor americans at the expense of nonpoor americans. the president sold the law on the basis that it's a benefit for all. but only his party bought that. not one republican member of congress voted for it subsequently, health insurance costs have risen for many working americans and a significant number of doctors are refusing to take government mandated insurance programs. but the four liberal judges don't really care about the overall impact of obamacare. they want free healthcare for the poor. that's what they want. and they will find a legal justification for it no matter what the actual law says. add in roberts and kennedy and press toe another enormous social safety net that benefits the have notes survives a valid legal challenge. the sad truth is most americans have no blanking idea what's really happening to their country. these are complicated issues where both sides have legitimate points.
5:08 pm
but some important decisions are being made outside constitutional authority. if the trend toward big government and political activism by judges continues, the liberty of the american individual is going to take a huge hit. already we is have a guy running for president senator bernie sanders who does not oppose a top income tax rate of 90%. 90. conservative and independent-minded americans should well he understand what is occurring. uber left politicians and judges aided by compliant media and vicious smear merchants on the net now have political cover and momentum and they are hell-bent on crushing traditional beliefs and competitive capitalism, replacing them with so-called tolerance and forced asset sharing. the tenets of victimization and grievance may soon dominate public policy even at the expense of public safety and majority opinion.
5:09 pm
you see in the brave new progressive field the rights and welfare of each american really don't matter. the promise of collective social justice dominates and you will be dismissed as unworthy or even branded a bigot if you get in the way of that promise. that's the reality of america as we head into the the 2016 presidential campaign. spread the word. and that's the memo. next on the rundown, charles krauthammer will reply. also ahead jesse watters trying to find out why things are getting out of control here in new york city. and nbc firing donald trump over his remarks on mexican and illegal aliens. the factor will be right back.

♪ ♪ ♪ (vo) making the most out of every mile. that's why i got a subaru impreza. love. it's what makes a subaru a subaru. continuing now with lead story how america is changing. we asked charles krauthammer
5:13 pm
to come up with three three, i got it, three major reasons the u.s. is going over to the secular side. he joins us from washington. all right. before we get to that, any quibbles with my memo? >> no. i think the basic point have right. particularly on the gay marriage decision. this is a recapitulation of what happened 40 years ago with the abortion decision. you can disagree or agree with the policy itself but the fact is they went completely outside the constitution and it's not so much that they created a right is that by issuing the decree in this case, to legalize gay everywhere, as in the abortion case, it took the issue out of the political arena. meaning that the people, either expressed through referenda or legislators can no longer express themselves on the issues. ruth bader ginsburg who ironically was one of those who ruled for gay marriage, she said before she is to
5:14 pm
the supreme court as a criticism of the abortion decision that it prevented a stable social settlement of the abortion issue which at the time was headed in the reform direction which is exactly what was happening with the gay marriage. the supreme court sets in where the country is is moving on an issue making a decision state by state democratically the way the constitution wanted it, and says no more debate, no more decisions, whatever you -- whatever laws you have, or state constitutions you have they are invalid we decide the law of the land. >> that's not what the constitution says. it's clearly a delineation of the three branches of government. the supreme court is not supposed to make law and they are. but here -- this is even -- >> -- well, that's my point. >> this is even worse. you got two justices who performed bay marriages because judges in this country can.
5:15 pm
that's a farce. they should have recused themselves and said, look, you know, we perform these marriages. we believe in gay marriage, but, we know that the court has to look at it in a somewhat objective way and evaluate both sides of the story. we're incapable of doing that because we have already thrown into it, so we are going to recuse. that would have been the honest thing to do. >> but the issue isn't even the policy. the chief justice dissent indicated that, you know, on the policy, had he been in a state legislature he might have supported gay rights or gay marriage, but he says it's not our job. >> yeah, this is roberts. >> to pass legislation. our job is to decide what is constitutional. >> it's all out of whack now. >> and decide whether anybody else can decide. he said that's not what we should have done in this case. >> these guys know it that's the thing. that's what troubles me. each of these nine supreme court justices know they are not doing what they're
5:16 pm
compelled to do by the constitution. they are not. okay. three reasons why america is heading for secular paradise. number one -- >> -- you try to get me into a rick perry situation here? number one charles darwin. this has been a secular -- the secularization of the west is a phenomenon at least 150 years old. and the main reason is the rise of signs. we could spend a whole hour on that but it's happened everywhere. the remarkable story about america is that we're the least secularized. the pews in the churches in britain, france, italy are empty. they are not empty in america. that's an interesting story. we have become more secular without a doubt but nowhere near where the rest of the west is. >> no. but the science has not been able to prove the existence of any kind of force that would create the universe
5:17 pm
other than a deity, they have not been able to. >> look, but that's not the point the point is logical or not or you could produce an august -789d or not the fact that the secularization of the west is a direct result of the rise of science and you might say the narrowing of the areas of ignorance and uncertainty that we had had for centuries. >> i only have a minute or so left. >> whether or not it's justified or not is a separate issue. it's a sociological fact. >> 30 seconds on number two and 30 seconds on number three. two. >> number the two the secular left realizing it wasn't going to win on politics. decided to march through the cultural institutions, the universities, the media hollywood, and number three the reason that's important is young people no longer are raised by their parents. they get outside influence through their ears, through the internet, on television
5:18 pm
as never before in human history. 6 to 8 hours a day. the left controls the culture and the culture in the end drives the politics. >> and the parents add abbey abbey. >> influence of the technology if for no other reason. >> charles krauthammer everybody. directly ahead. what really happened in the upstate new york jail break. how could two vicious killers escape for three weeks? we will have the inside story. brit hume on nbc firing donald trump over his mexican remarks. moments away.

5:22 pm
factor follow up segment tonight, over the weekend escaped killer david sweat 35 years old shot and captured by police in upstate new york. sweat and his cohort, 49-year-old richard matt escaped from a high security prison on june 6th. they evaded authorities for about three weeks. even though thousands of law enforcement agents were on their trail. but what really happened here? with us now jonathan guilliams, former fbi agent and form navy seal currently ceo of a consulting company. let's start with the beginning. i'm not buying a lot of this stuff. you have got to have pretty heavy duty tools to go through a wall, go through pipes. you have got to know where you are going. it was a complicated situation. how do you read the initial breakout? >> well, i think that the tools that were snuck in through the frozen meat, quote, unquote were not adequate enough to cut into some of those pipes. so i'm with you there. i thought all along that there was extra help and possibly if not other guards that the construction crews themselves were either knowingly supplying tools
5:23 pm
there or there was somebody involved that went in and actually cut the stuff for them. >> there were construction companies working on the prison. >> correct. >> at the time. bus these byes would have had to have a map of all the underground and where the pipes were. you couldn't have done it blind. >> listen, if i had to crawl through 20 feet of that pipe without knowing where i was going i would absolutely losese my mind that was away long way to go through a small pipe. >> they were blaming this joyce mitchell, this hapless woman she is the mastermind of getting these guys all of the equipment. i don't believe that for a second. i mean, i think that she helped them. >> sure. >> all right. but, as you pointed out they had to have heavy duty stuff to get out of there. >> she is somebody who has got a psychological issue that cannot -- once she gets he into something can't separate the, you know, what is correct and what is not correct based on what her desires are. that is the perfect person for a psychopath to manipulate. but she is not a mastermind. >> right. she was supposed to drive them to mexico. i mean, are you believing that?
5:24 pm
>> she would have been dead as soon as they got away from that prison. >> all right. she chickened out or whatever. you and i both believe that there was other help inside that prison. they had to have other help. one guard has been arrested for supplying something or whatever. the fbi is now in on, this right? >> that's correct. >> why is the fbi in on it. >> it's a public corruption case now. the reason that is because anybody who is involved is going to kind of minimize their involvement. i think you can look at the state and you can also look at the prison system to wanting to minimize their role. >> you know what, new york state, you botched. this we're going to come in and find out what happened. >> that's right. >> this guy sweat is talking right? >> is he talking is he going to minimize his role in this. >> he is going -- is he probably bartering for meals now. i will tell you this if you give me a decent meal because is he done forever. i expect he will talk. >> he is talking.
5:25 pm
all the interviews they do, put them together and look at the clear picture. >> he isn't going to protect anybody. he doesn't care anything b. anything. >> on the run in the adirondacks, have you been up there. >> yes. >> so it's pretty primitive territory. you could dodge the guards. ' got your food and pepper cover your smell i guess did he that and they had clothing and stuff like that. so, i wasn't -- i'm not critical of the hunt. i think the hunt was inevitable that they would get them. but they didn't seem to have a plan other than evading day to day right? >> it appears that their plan was to get away and have her drive them. and when that fell through they didn't really have another option. i do find it odd though that the cabins that they went to and that they were in are correction officer cabins. >> so they knew where they were somewhat? >> maybe they overheard that. >> no, they had to have maps of the whole prison where
5:26 pm
the camps were. >> right. >> and all of that they had to. now, i want to tell the viewers that you run a company now that helps vets get jobs, right? >> right. we are not a nonprofit. what i try to do is create a project that we can turn into companies or we will partner with other veteran companies because i believe that we offer something that the public needs and the public needs. >> how can people find out about you? >> they can go to the united states continued service.com and they can find me on facebook. >> united states continued.com, jonathan gilliam on facebook. >> thank you very much. >> things going down in new york city as the liberal mayor is backing policies creating chaos on the street. jesse watters will report. also brit hume on donald trump getting sacked by nbc over his comments on mexican illegals. we hope you stay tuned to those reports. i juice. and then there's that other thing.

problem, trump was. that is harming the nation and just didn't speak to it in a specific way rather than -- >> -- i agree yeah i don't think donald trump was trying to demonize all mexican people. is he trying to show that the present administration and the country itsfulself doesn't have the will to stop the carnage. >> he is out there in the midst of a political campaign. and he states a position very strongly. it's definitely a political issue. something that you would expect him to comment about. they didn't agree with what he said, so they fired him. >> okay. now, on nbc's behalf, don't they have a responsibility to tell their audience that we're going to respect you and if a presidential candidate runs down because trump was speaking in a general way we are going to speak up for you. does nbc have an obligation to do that. >> did they apply that standard to al sharpton who has a nyeste nightly show on

5:34 pm
what trump does but with a little bit more measure. >> well, and not to mention the fact, bill, when these candidates announce and nearly all cases so far they have gotten a lift in the polls. so, if he gets a lift in the polls, he will be, you know, in the hunt at least. his fundraising will doubtless improve and have a shot making it to that debate where he will have a chance to show his stuff. >> is he a live lie guy and that's what we want here liveliness. john kasich did a very very good job of governor of ohio. i say that with no partisan agenda at all. he did an excellent job but nobody knows him. what kind of a shot does he have? >> he has a shot too bill. he is waiting until well into july to announce apparent limitly. >> that will be tough to get him on the debate. >> he has to do something in the polls the same way kristi does to improve his.

four books outsold patton last year. that's true. but they were kids and young adult titles. not in my category. here's what p.w. wrote last january, quote, in fact the only adult title to sell more than one million was killing patton. the fourth book released september 23rd. the book topped the adult nonfiction list. and sold more than adult fiction as well. so unlike chris hayes, publisher's weekly continues the deceit and everybody in the book business knows it. killing reagan was ignored for ideological reasons. gently speaking, the american media now driven by ideology and that often involves deception. let the buyer beware. that's it for us. also, watch factor anywhere in the world. name and town if you wish to
