"on the record" is back tomorrow 7:00 p.m. eastern. go no-to-my facebook page and like it. up next the "the o'reilly factor." good night. >> the o'reilly factor is on. tonight: >> bill o'reilly has been tremendous, calling over and over again on leaders of this body, simplely to pass case law. >> now, finally a stand alone vote on kate's law will take place. who could possibly vote against protecting us from violent foreign nationals? we'll have a special report. >> announcing hillary clinton in her own way kind of lay out her case against his temperament because he is, i think, clinically insane. >> do news organizations have a responsibility to stop a smear like that? bernie goldberg will weigh in. >> how many chances does it take to pave a road. >> 37. do you have a problem with that. >> the largest city new

york, literally falling apart. watters on the street. >> no, no traffic here. >> no traffic? >> not here. >> yeah, right. >> caution, you are about to enter the no spin zone. the factor begins right now. ♪ ♪ hi, i'm bill o'reilly. thanks for watching us tonight. finally, some good news for kate's law. that is the subject of this evening's talking points memo. the nation was shocked when 32-year-old kate steinle was murdered in san francisco just about one year ago, 45-year-old juan francisco lopez sanchez, an illegally alien are seven connections in the u.s.a. charged with murder. not only was he allow to do roam the streets but he had been deported five times and returned returned six times.

i proposed kate's law insofar as rate convicted felons be five years caught defying deportation. sweep them off the street. my question, who would oppose that law? who would? apparently harry reid would. the senator and we will see about the other senators next week. that's when kate's law will finally be authored for a stand alone vote in the senate. 60 votes are needed out of 100 to get the law in place for a full vote on the floor. again, i simply can't believe that any sitting senator would not support kate's law. and we will tell you exactly who steps up and who does not. >> by the way, senators grassley, mccain, cruz, rubio and sass have been heroes on this. also, standing alone next week in the senate. a new law that would hold -- withhold i should say, some federal funds from sanctuary cities, places that will not cooperate on federal immigration law. the bill is sponsored by pennsylvania senator pat

toomey and has a lesser chance of success than kate's law because so many democrats are invested in the illegal alien industry. that's what it is an industry. now, the reason senate majority leader mitch mcconnell is finally getting these two bills to the floor in solo situations. not together. solo. is two fold. the british vote to leave the eu ramped up the illegal immigration issue. and the upcoming election in november will mean that any democrat voting against protecting americans from violent aliens and cities that harbor them will have to defend that vote when they run against a republican opponent. it is assumed that all the republican senators will support indicate's law and the punishment of sanctuary cities. summing up, simply inconceivable to me that any elected official would vote against harshly punishing violent foreign nationals who defy deportation. i can't fathom any responsible person doing that if a senator does vote

against kate's law. we will deal with that person. on the sanctuary front again, in order to protect americans from harm, immigration law must be obeyed. the issue is not as stark as kate's law but it is a litmus test of settled law versus anarchy. is it not? and that's the memo. now for the top story. reaction, with us, dana perino, co-host of the five. make a prediction does kate's law make it. >> i regretfully think it will not but i have a caveat. i think there are some democrats, to get to the 60 you will need about six democrats. i think that the democrats might be politically minded enough and partisan enough to allow the 60 vote threshold so that the law can be debated on the floor for several days. in which they would be able to stand on the floor and get a lot of campaign footage that they could use for ads in the fall because they will be against kate's law. and they are going to want to have themselves on the record on the floor of the senate saying why. so,. >> and you believe that's a

plus in some americans' mind? i believe that 80% of americans will be horrified if this law doesn't pass. and that includes democrats and liberals and all, horrified. >> i think that there are a lot -- i don't support the democrats' position. >> no, but you are saying that they think it's a plus. some democrats think it's a plus for them. i can't imagine that. >> i absolutely think they think it's a plus for them for two reasons. one, a lot of democrats from big states, senators, they represent large metropolitan areas which are usually quite democratic and they need those huge democrats. >> you think in large democratic areas the folks don't want to punish illegal violent aliens who defy deportation? you think that? >> i think if that were not the case, you wouldn't see all of these sanctuary cities actually operating. >> it's a difference between sanctuary cities and kate's law. as i said it's a heart of sanctuary city play. >> you have to separated the bills. let's get back to kate's law. you actually believe that a democratic senator thinks

it's a plus politically for that person to say to his constituents, i'm not going to protect you against a violent illegal alien who defies deportation seven times six times and has seven felony convictions. i'm not going to protect from you that person. you think that's a plus? >> i think in their minds they think that they can figure out a way to make it a plus so they can keep their immigrant population very happy. you said something about the brexit vote earlier. >> yeah. >> one of the things that we saw in that is that the 80% of people that are watching this, not the 20%, the democrats are, you know, appealing to, but that 80% is sick and tired of this kind of thing happening in their cities and their states and tired that washington can't get anything done. >> yeah. >> that's why. >> it was a stunning vote. it was based largely on illegal immigration in britain. >> that can happen here. which the point you are making in the talking points memo. >> i think it already has in the sense that i think most americans are tired of this. >> yes. >> and will punish senators

who vote against indicate's law. i really believe it we will help you punish them. because we will run them down for you in the next six months. i'm going to run them down. because this is -- this is so outrageous and so disgusting now. next week i'm going to have mr. steinle on, kate's father. he wrote us a note today that says i want you to ask every senator to please pass kate's law in honor of my daughter kate steinle. >> it's heart-breaking and very compelling note. >> i will tell you this if the senator votes against kate's law, is he spitting in the eye of the steinle family. is he spitting in their eye. hehe or she. >> i would hope that democrats would put partisan politics aside. >> you predict they will not. >> i predict they will not. not in enough. not all of them will but i think enough of them will not. >> i think they are going to get to 60. i know manchin in west virginia and a couple other democratic senators are going to vote for it. >> to get to the debate. >> get to the debate. i don't think you will seal grandstanding against kate's law. we will see. >> they want to paint the

republicans as against immigration. >> loser. it's a loser on this one. >> in our minds and i think 80% of the people and in their minds they want to turn out those voters in their states. they will pay the price. >> all right. deign -- dana. thank you. loretta lynch privately meeting with former president clinton when the email investigation of his wife is still underway. and later watters on why knox is falling apart. right back. ♪ ♪ it's easy to love your laxative when that lax loves your body back. only miralax hydrates, eases and softens to unblock naturally, so you have peace of mind from start to finish. love your laxative. miralax. ♪ it's here, but it's going by fast.

reported last night attorney general loretta lynch met with president clinton at the phoenix airport monday. because of the ongoing framing investigation into hillary clinton's emails that meeting has become a problem. >> was it appropriate for you to meet with president clinton while in the middle of the wife's email servers?

>> i did see the president at the phoenix airport the other night as i was landing, he was headed out. did he come over and say hello and speak to my husband and myself and talk about his grandchildren and his travels and things like that. so that was the extent of that and no discussions were held in any cases or anything of that and he didn't raise anything about that either. >> joining us now from phoenix, knxv, tv anchor christopher sian who he broke the story. first of all, they were in private planes, right? they were in a hanger is that what happened? >> basically in the tarmac in a private section of sky harbor international airport where a lot of high profile people fly in and out of the airport. >> how did you get on the fact therapy leaving. >> i was leaving for the day and got a tip from a trusted source and naturally you could think my jaw dropped. i trust this person. took the information. had a private meeting with my management at the studios here in phoenix. we then went after a second

source for that. they both had the exact same information. neither one of these sources knerr knew each other. we then had the information. we were armed with the information and took that the to news conference and we were already prepared to go with the story even before we asked the attorney general if, indeed she met with the former president. >> so, from my understanding, the attorney general was landing or had just landed and mr. clinton was already in phoenix and he knew she was coming in on a private plane. and he want to do wait to chat with her and then he boarded her plane and they had the conversation; is that how it went down? >> that's right. that's right. she, as a matter of fact, landed on time. he and his entourage were running late according to my sources. they then make the decision they meaning the former president's team. they wait for her to land. she arice. some people step off of her plane. the former president steps in to her plane. they then speak for 30 minutes privately. the fbi there on the tarmac instructing everybody around no photos, no pictures, no

cell phones, he then gets off the plane, guess on his own plane, he deports, she continues on with her planned visit. >> okay. why was the president in phoenix, do we know? >> to be honest with you, we have no idea. and the attorney general, as a matter of fact, she said they talked about him playing golf. at this very moment as i'm talking to you, i have reached out to several sources, those with intimate knowledge of his movements because they work with these dignitaries when they come into phoenix, not one so far has said that he played golf. i'm not saying that he didn't play golf. i'm just saying i have yet to i don't confirm that he playd golf. >> the appearance of impropriety is the story here. and good work, mr. sign. excellent work. you and your station. >> i appreciate it. >> very good. and we appreciate you. thank you. >> yes, sir. >> us here in new york city mark handna, author of the book "the best-worst president." now, as we discussed last night. just the appearance of this meeting is disturbing, is it not? >> a lot of people in the democratic party are upset with the optics of it, sure.

>> what does that mean. >> it means that it doesn't look good. when you consider what bill clinton does. in this -- i reached out to somebody who he works with him closely. this is a courtesy he extends to members of congress, foreign dignitaries, all cabinet. >> i'm not so much worried with him. he met with ted cruz on the tarmac a couple weeks ago. >> investigating his wife. >> common occurrence. board the plane. >> it is on his side. is he a very social man. gregarious. what he does doesn't concern me. the attorney general has to know. >> she knows there is an investigation going on, for sure. >> she has to know that the husband powerful man of his own right to the subject of the investigation enters a private plane alone. >> she also. >> and stays with her for 30 minutes, not hi, how are you. >> she also is paying a courtesy call to the former president of the united

states. it's not an easy thing to wave that. >> here is what she should have done in my opinion. you get off your plane. you walk on to the tarmac, you greet him. you talk with him in full view of everyone for two or three minutes and then you go on your way. >> both these people have security details. loretta lynch has the fbi around her. bill clinton still has the secret service. >> so what. standing on the tarmac with them. >> they both know the news of this is going to get out. >> no they didn't. >> all sorts of witnesses that know what is happening. >> secret service agent just wrote a book. >> this reporter broke the story. a local reporter. the national media had no idea. let's get back to this. you say some democrats are upset about the meeting, correct? >> it gives fuel to the fire of all the conspiracy theorists, does it not? >> sure it does. >> what should, in your

opinion, attorney general loretta lynch do recuse herself? i don't know how you do that as the prosecuting attorney for the united states. >> i think people have a comical understanding of how involved she is in this. this investigation is being led by career fbi agents and investigators. >> but she has to bring charges. >> many of them are probably republican but they don't see the world like you and i, bill. through the political lens. >> she has to bring the charges it has nothing to do with the fbi. >> prove whether something is lawful or not lawful and with high profile investigation like this. you better be sure if those fbi agents, if loretta lynch doesn't take their recommendation you know you have a couple go rogue. >> if loretta lynch doesn't take their recommendation, the fbi, everybody should know that she will be impeached. okay. she will be impeached. >> i suspect she will take the recommendations. >> she will. but if it comes back and this is bad for hillary clinton. hillary clinton should be mad about this. if it comes back that hillary clinton isn't going to be charged, the fbi says there isn't enough evidence,

why does hillary clinton want a tainted case? she just wants to say good, i'm glad, so this is bad for her. >> it's bad optic no, sir question. >> bad everything. >> gives fire to the conspiracy theorists. american people from a political standpoint don't care. they care about their bank accounts and national security they don't care about hillary clinton's emails anymore, bill. they just don't. >> they do. and they care about who is running for president and care about their government being honest. mr. hannah, thank you. is it really possible to defeat isis? possible? former green beret officer will tell us. then sliming a presidential candidate. should news agencies have limits on that? bernie goldberg up ahead. bow? advil liqui-gels make pain a distant memory nothing works faster stronger or longer what pain? advil.

impact segment tonight.

the casualty count continues to rise any istanbul. close to 300 are either dead or wound dollars. after terrorists attack and eventually blew themselves up. in the past isis was eager to take responsibility for their atrocities but they have not done so in turkey or egyptian jet crash on may 19th where 66 perished. that is still being investigatinged. joining us from tampa lieutenant colonel scottman and author of the book game changers going local to defeat violent extremists. is isis changing pr plan here and not taking credit for these things? >> hey, bill. i don't think they are. you know, i think this is guerilla warfare 101. turkey like they view it or egypt and directly bring a threat on to them as a neighbor, they can send their message with a strike

without overtly claiming it and hide it in ambiguity. i don't think it's a change in strategy but pragmatic gil guerilla warfare. >> that makes sense because raqqa, the command and control of isis is just 50 miles from the turkish border now it has to be isis. i have looked at it every different way and it doesn't have earmarks of al qaeda and the other groups, they really haven't mounted this kind of organized terror. do you concur with that? >> i do, bill. and i'm glad to see you calling it out. and also calling for action on it because i will tell you, isis, more so than any other violent extremist group, they are bought into an end of days scenario. and ideological commitment that has them -- this is the first of many strikes we are going to see this summer. it's a focused campaign. these guys are not going away. they are ideologically commit to do leafl of

violence that i don't think our leaders or american people have got their head fully around yet. >> they want the confrontation with the west. they want, they say, you know, troops on the ground and all that because they believe that will mobilize the muslim world to their defense. i don't see it that way. i think if nato got involved they could crush these people fairly quickly. the army could do it today. march the auto miles into raqqa, who is going to stop them? the isis guys can't stand up against the turkish mechanized force. they don't do it for a variety of reasons. because they have their own muslim problem inside turkey, correct? >> that's true. and i agree with your assessment that, you know, standing, you know, directly against conventional force isis couldn't do that. but i do believe that they follow a prophetic methodology of judgment day. and they tell us that in their own november 24th propaganda video titled no recited. when you think about an enemy's will all the way up

to al baghdadi. they believe in end of day scenario. >> let's give them the end of the days then. let's give them their ends of the days. if the turkish army backed by u.s. air power and u.s. planes already on their soil at the airport, okay. wipe them all out and they are dead in the sand. that's a good propaganda victory for the west. is it not? >> absolutely. if i thought that that would work, you know, i would full heartedly -- wholeheartedly agree with you. my son was 3 when we started this war through multiple deployments and now is he going to fight it i don't think the strategy of just attrition works in this sense. it needs to be done, bill. what i -- the only thing that i have seen work in this war in both iraq and afghanistan, is striking these guys at a local level and mobilizing those folks that live in those communities to stand up against them. we did this with al qaeda and iraq in 2006 and it worked under petraeus. we did it with the pose tunes in afghanistan in 2010 and it worked. they are scared of this. while i agree with you going

after them. at the same time, these guys are killed more muslims than any other religion on the planet. mobile gliz them as well and let them do the heavy lifting they are not doing that. >> there is nobody in syria to mobilize. that's the problem. they are scattered all over the place. in iraq, that's a different story. and you are seeing that the iraqis with the iranian help, the militias are pushing them back. but i really think a message, colonel, has to be sent by the west. you know, enough's enough. okay? i understand it might anger some other muslims, but, i think end of days we should give them the end of the days as quickly as we can colonel, appreciate it one footnote on the contributing factor podcast harris faulkner discusses foreign terrorism in her home state of minnesota. very interesting. check that out on bill o'reilly.com or itunes. plenty more ahead as the factor moves along this evening. bernie goldberg on political candidates being smeared. is is there a line that news agencies should not cross?

entirely new approach that uses a medicated response, recognizes that a large part of this is a biological problem. that it's a disease. this new approach gets dramatically better results and saves an enormous number of lice. so i'm convinced that if we can get the word out, get policies modified and move towards using appropriate medications, that and recognizing that we're dealing with a disease here and not a lifestyle that we can literally save thousands of americans at a time when more americans are killed by open otherwise oindz than

opioids than automobiles. >> aren't you trading one >> weakening than not going cold turkey people genetically appropriate can go cold turkey and it works fine. a large number of the current overdoses are people who withdrew and when they were in detox. came out of detox. took exactly the same amount they used to have when their body was used to it and that now is an overdose and kills them. >> mr. kennedy, you went through this addiction. a lot of people say it isn't a disease. it's a choice. people want to get high. they want to live their lifsd in an escape mode and no matter what kind of help you offer them they are going to reend it and you say? >> people don't get up every day and try if-to-figure out and figure out how they are going to lose a job and lose their family and alienate themselves from all their friends. how they are going to be a

pariah in society and be called a drug addict. all of this pejorative labeling for people with addiction. i don't know anyone who would choose to be someone with addiction. it's not a place where anyone would like to live in a normal state of being. now. >> now, i don't think anybody is opposed to giving people drugs to get them off the drug the. again, there are going to be hundreds of thousands of people that are not going to take you up with your offer. what do you do with them? >> tragically, for people who are determined to remain addicts, they are going to lead declining lives. a number of them. >> but they are going to hurt us, too though. they hurt themselves but they hurt their families. they hurt people by antisocial acts to support their habits. >> but, bill, here is part of it. somebody who is picked up as a drug addict and engaged in antisocial behaviors, let's say they are stealing to pay for their thing, one of the things we are looking at that congressman kennedy and i are looking at is what's the impact of the right kind of medication approach in

prisons? >> sure. that makes sense. >> you know, if you could help every prisoner be in a different world and be no longer an addictive personality by the time they get out of prison, you really could potentially change dramatically both the crime rate but also the addiction rate in the country and in the process, you could potentially save more than 10,000 lives a year by the right kind of approach in this. that's why this is exciting opportunity to save a lot of people from dying unnecessarily. >> let's give mr. kennedy the last word on the program. >> so, bill, you wouldn't tell someone with an obesity issue just diet and exercise. you will be all right we're north going to give you insulin or somebody cardiovascular disease we are not going to give you the statins. just diet and run more. that's what we do to people with addiction we are not going to give you the evidence-based treatment that could help you deal

with your illness because part of your illness is biological part and the other two pieces diet and exercise, the equivalent of psychosocial behavior, approaches they can be employed as well but not in a vacuum without the kind of medication and treatment. >> i hope the country does finance this because it would cost a lot of money there has to be a consequence for us to do not take us. because i'm with you guys up on our offer. very provocative. and i appreciate you speaking with us today. >> thank you, bill. >> when we come right back, the most voferl story of the evening, news agencies allowing smears and defamation against political candidates. bernie goldberg on that next. hey, ready for the big meeting? yeah. >>uh, hello!? a meeting? it's a big one. too bad. we are double booked: diarrhea and abdominal pain. why don't you start without me? oh. yeah.

thanks for staying with us. i'm bill o'reilly. in the weekdays with bernie segment tonight, smearing politicians. >> i'm now seeing hillary clinton in her own way kind of lay out her case against his temperament and i love the fact that she is using his own language against him. i think that's probably the most effective way because he is, i think, clinically insane. >> right now we see that we

have two political parties here. one of which is literally saying that we should give up all-american values, that we should adopt the exact same tactics of the gestapo and the nazis. >> i got you. >> in addition there are plenty of attacks on the right on liberal politicians as we all know. joining us is bernie goldberg. you have a woman who comes on who says that donald trump is clinically insane. okay. the news agency didn't know, i don't think, that she was going to say that. >> right. >> before she was booked as a guest. number one, should that person never again appear on that channel and, number two. should there be stated rules for guests that you don't go over a certain line? >> i wouldn't impose the death penalty. but i would say yes on the rules. look, even opinion journalism has to be fair. commentators and hosts of opinion shows have a lot of

leeway and they should have a lot of leeway. but i can't say -- i can't come on your program and say, you know, so and so reminds me of a child molester, i will get away with that once on live tv but i won't get away with it twice. >> if you had said that we would never use you again. even though i love you, and have you been on this program since 1812 if you made of analogy to anybody in that context you would be gone. >> 1813. i'm not going to quibble on that. on the matter of comparisons to nazis which is quite popular on the left i would say that crosses the line. the woman that said that trump is clinically insane, she is an actress. she is not a psychiatrist. in my view, that crosses the line. because and i'm going to repeat because it's really important even opinion journalism needs to be fair. now, on the other side of

that coin, i think management should step in and i think there should be rules and guidelines when people are too soft on people running for president. if you're too close. >> but that's a different thing though. >> it's a different kind of thing. but what i'm saying is, i think there should be rules and guidelines when people are. >> let me challenge that for a minute. >> and needlessly. >> let me challenge that. >> too kind. >> if you're in the tank for a political candidate, as many commentators across many forums are. you are rooting for that person to win the senate, the house, the presidency, whatever it may be, okay? >> right. >> that's permitted under the rules of commentary. and if you see the newspaper op-eds, you see it all the time. we want this person. we want that person. we want this person. so when those people then cross over to interview them and, of course, politicians want to come in and be interviewed by people who

are rooting for them. okay, it will be almost impossible to say hey, even though you are rooting, you have got to ask a, b, c, and d. >> you brought up the expression cross ago line. i i am saying i could like candidate x and say nice things about candidate x. that's perfectly legitimate. but if i'm pals with candidate x and i'm having candidate x write blushes blurbs for my book, i'm way too close to candidate x. >> you are saying you should recuse yourself. >> aren't going to recuse themselves. >> they should. >> management, in my hummable parkway, needs to say in fairness to the viewer, even if the viewer wants a soft interview in fairness to the interviewer i'm not going to let you play. i was friends with donald
