this evening. quick programming note. tomorrow night, 10:00 eastern, i will be into interview the israeli prime minister. we'll see you tomorrow. ♪ >> bill: "the o'reilly factor" is on tonight. >> people trying to cover up for a terrible loss that the democrats had under hillary clinton. i think it is very, very unfair, what has happened to general flynn. >> bill: president trump saying general flynn's demise was partially the fault of the press. but is that true? "talking points" will deal with it. >> that was a 9/11 scale event, they attacked the core of our very democracy. that was a pearl harbor scale event. >> bill: a "new york times" columnist said russia committed an act of war toward the usa. bolling and rivera on that. >> when someone points a gun at a cop, that is something that i

"the factor" begins right now. ♪ >> bill: hi, i am bill o'reilly. thanks for watching us tonight. mass hysteria over that is a subject of this evening's "talking points" memo. as we reported last night, the national security advisor has resigned because the trump administration says it lost confidence in him. the story is a bit complicated but it boils down to this. flynn had contact with the russian ambassador in late december, while barack obama waa still president. according to leaks from the intelligence agencies, flynn discussed mr. obama's sanctions against russia. then, general flynn denied that to vice president mike pence.

the fbi also interviewed general flynn, and if you lie to them, that would be a crime. however, that is a big "if." it is not a crime for mr. flynn to informally talk with the russian ambassador before donald trump took office. but it is highly inappropriate if policy was discussed. so, at this point, flynn is out, and it looks like retired vice admiral robert harward will take his place. he is 60 years old, extensive military experience, served in afghanistan. i it looks like a solid choice but you never know. by the way, the fbi is still investigating the whole russian situation, but that is all we know at this point. however, lack of facts doesn't stop the anti-trump press from whipping up hysteria. there are two things in play. first, the trump haters are fervently hoping they can link the trump campaign to the russian hackers who disrupted campaign.n that is the ultimate goal for the haters.

if they cannot achieve that, they would like to have general flynn tell the world that donald trump ordered him to call the russian ambassador. so, that is the media game plan. yesterday, the bombast on our cable competition was actually humorous. "the new york times" columnist thomas friedman compared the russian hacking to war. >> we have never taken seriously from the very beginning russia hacked our election. that was a 9/11 scale event. they attacked the core of our very democracy. that was a pearl harbor scale event.ke >> bill: now, here is how crazy that statement is. say president trump declared war on russia, as we did after pearl harbor. would thomas friedman support that? of course not. so this is just madness. however, the anti-trump media loves this kind of stuff. let me give you another very simple example. and it has to do with speculation.

>> do you think flynn acted alone when he made that phone call to the russian ambassador in washington? >> i don't think that anything in washington happens alone. >> bill: now, that man, congressman seth moulton, is a trump hater. also, he has no blanking idea whether general flynn acted alone. he couldn't possibly know. wolf blitzer, generally a responsible guy, asked a speculative question based on nothing. there could not have been any credible answer that shed light on the flynn situation. so why bother with that nutty speculation? the answer is, there are millions of trump haters who will sit there in front of the tv hour after hour after hour and watch this kind off bilge. b-i-l-g-e, bilge. and that is why they do it. summing up, there is no credible

evidence at this point that the trump campaign cooperated with the russians in the hacking of the clinton campaign. none.p there is no credible evidence that general flynn was directed to do anything. yet the anti-trump media spends hours talking trash. one footnote, hard news reporters should be looking into all the russian intrusions, including the flynn situation. if those reporters uncover evidence of wrongdoing, it should be presented. but speculation by the media is garbage. and that is "the memo." now, the top story reaction, joining us from washington, legendary investigative reporter, bob woodward, an associate editor of "the washington post." where am i going wrong, mr. woodword? >> there is an anti-trump press, there is the pro-trump press. i think the hard news reporters, as you said, should keep digging on this.

here is my reaction. i know general flynn a little bit. and the idea that he kind of misled about one thing, as you know, bill, people in the white house always mislead somebody on something. that that became a firing offense does not make sense to me. and all my alarm bells went m o, why is he gone for this? and i think the alarm bells went off for lots of reporters. >> bill: let me give you the explanation that's coming out of the white house. vice president pence, very powerful guy, talked to flynn, and flynn told him, i didn't talk about any of the sanctions. and then the vice president went on network television and said that. said, "hey, general flynn didn't do it." now, it turns out, because of tapped conversations, and a transcript that nobody has

seen but nobody is denying itso anymore, that flynn did talk about sanctions. so, when you, at that level, mislead a vice president and it goes out and, you know, says something, that is a firing offense, bob, and you know it. >> well, not necessarily. >> bill: oh, come on! come on. sure, it is. >> you come on. so i am telling you, my alarm bells went off. i think lots off people had the same feeli media. they are asking the question -- >> bill: dopey speculative questions to trump haters or -- are quite something else. one of our competitors, they have nine people, i don't know where they find all the lounge chairs. they just line them up, two conservatives, seven trump haters, and they go down -- this is watergate -- if i were you, i would sue anybody saying this is watergate.rg if i were you, woodward, i would sue them. they have nothing to back it up. it is all crazy speculation. and that is what we are getting

into in this country. nobody knows the facts. nobody knowsws anything. it is all speculation. >> okay, there is a lot of speculation and a lot of nonsense. so let's get the facts. there will be a congressional investigation. the fbi supposedly is looking at this. here is the remedy, if i may really put something that is concrete out there. and that is for the trump white house to get the counsel in the white house to look at this.oth the president has authority to release anything, even material that is classified, and put out a report and say, this is what really happened. this is what went on. because the congressional investigation is going to take months. the fbi, god knows how long that is going to take. and you have created the environment of suspicion and anxiety.

>> bill: i think i would like to know what really happened. >> why don't they do this? >> bill: there are unintended consequences of every action, as you know. if you wanted to make an enemy out of general flynn, which president trump obviously doesn't want to do, you hang him. all right? you make an enemy out of him. >> well, he has fired him. he has fired him. that is a pretty serious matter. come on. indeed, it is. >> bill: i am agreeing you. i am agreeing you. it is. he said nice things about him today. he doesn't seem to want to alienate him or make him what they call a scapegoat. then flynn would have to defend himself, then flynn can come back and say, well, so-and-so told me to do this. it becomes a real mess. i'm not saying they shouldn't. >> you don't think it's a mess now? but one giving you a reason why they are not that anxious to do it. last word. >> okay, the white house counsel could conduct an inquiry, look at all the classified documents,

talk to general flynn and put it out or have some reporters who are neutral in all of this in to the white house and say, here are the documents, here are a people are saying, and put it out. believe me, this is going to fester for weeks, if not months, if there aren't answers to very serious questions. >> bill: all right, neutral reporters? where would -- would we have to go abroad to find them? all right, bob, always a pleasure talking to you. next on the rundown, is all the trump hatred now damaging the country beyond repair? glater, miller, martha maccallum, lou dobbs, karl rove, all upcoming. ♪ z282uz zwtz

israeli prime minister netanyahu. >> from intelligence, papers are being leaked, criminal action, criminal acts. and it has been going on for a long time, before me. but now it is really going on. people are trying to cover up for a terrible loss that the democrats had under hillary clinton. i think it is very, very unfair, what has happened to general flynn, the way he was treated. >> bill: joining us now to react, geraldo rivera and eric bolling. bolling, president trump thinks what happened to general flynn was unfair, why did he ask for -- accept his resignation?s >> i think he asked for his recognition. he can also think what was happening to general flynn was unfair. i do, too. >> bill: wait, wait, wait. if you are the president, you feel the general is a patriot, really served his country well, treated unfair, why do you boot him out? y >> he said treated unfairly by the press. of course -- >> bill: why would you stand behind them?

>> as trump said, or as spokesman spicer said, there was an eroding trust factor with general flynn. that was likely because of vice president pence. the press is taking apart general flynn because of his conversations with russia, whic i don't think amounts to a hill of beans. "the new york times" article was extensive. i read it three separate times, they alluded to accusations of a possible fbi involvement.ea >> bill: "the new york times" doesn't know, you don't know, rivera doesn't know, i don't know what was said. >> he has been excoriated in the press. these two things aren't mutually exclusive. >> bill: i don't know if -- if he is being treated unfairly, and you were the president, rivera, oh, my god -- >> [laughs] i would be in less of a jam than our friend president trump is right now. number one, if you did not complain about hacks and leaksot when they were damaging to hillary clinton, you have no

>> bill: because he misled pence. >> do you believe that? >> bill: i think that is why. >> what did he did mislead him? >> bill: i don't know! >> if he misled vice president pence, it was about his communications with russia. ergo, whatever it was,- communications with russia. >> bill: pence was teed off. go ahead. >> 100% right. he was asked for his resignation because he said to pence, no, i didn't have any discussions with russia. >> bill: that is what you think happened. >> no, pence said he spoke with flynn and he didn't speak with the russians. subsequently, nine separate sources said they did in fact talk. pence was out on the limb. he put the vice president on a limb. flynn needs to be fired for that reason, not because of what we do or don't know the actual conversations. all we know, geraldo -- >> bill: the most recent -- all right, bolling, shut up now. gentlemen, thank you very much. directly ahead, lou dobbs, the stock market going crazy.

tax cut, and there are real earnings being delivered, about 5%. we are looking at relatively 5 strong performance in earnings. so there is substance to what we are watching. the issue becomes, the longer this bull market continues, and it is getting aged, the more the risks rise. in addition to that, we have got a congress that looks like it wants to be a little stubborn rather than go along with the trump program. that ultimately will make the market and investors very nervous about the tax cuts. >> bill: the reason i am doing the segment, a lot of people are watching that are retired and they have mutual funds, and they are worried about it.l >> appropriately. >> bill: you know, at this level, the market at this level, this is high prices for these stocks. >> these are very high prices. looking forward, we are looking at forward earnings of 17 times earnings, that is historically high. >> bill: what is the average?

like, 12, 13? >> the average is around 15. we are looking at -- >> bill: everyone should be very, very careful now. >> without question. >> bill: because here is what is going to happen. i don'tt know. i think they will get the tax cuts done. they get the majority in the house and senate, why wouldn't they get the tax cuts done? >> because they're republicans? >> bill: no, i don't think so. i think they will get the tax cuts. i would be very surprised. but then interest rates will go up, right? so the cheap mortgages, they are already going up now. >> but we have only seen one interest rate hike by the fed in the course of more than a year. >> bill: over the next couple years, it will rise, and it will make buying stuff more expensive. particularly bigic ticket. the one factor that is not going to stop is this trying to get trump. we are living in an age where they are trying to get him.

israel when american jews go to the polls, or am i wrong? >> look, since the 1930s, since the onset of the new deal,l, jes have tended to vote democrat, overwhelmingly so. prior to that, they voted overwhelmingly republican. the social justice impulse of jews caused them, the onset of the new deal, to begin to vote democrat.t now, they were comfortable doing that because for most of thela last 80 years, democratic nominees for president, with the exception, perhaps, of george mcgovern, were reliably pro israel. the democratic party was a party of scoop jackson and john f. kennedy and hubert humphrey, great supporters of the state of israel. but that changed under president obama. though, it hasn't shaken the conviction -- >> bill: no, it was interesting, because netanyahu made it clear that he thought president obama was not an enemy but not a friend of israel. he made it very clear.

and hillary clinton vowed to pretty much -- she was the secretary of state, she carried out that policy, yet 71% still voted for her. an interesting phenomenon. okay, we have a new poll -- >> one more thing about that, bill. just remember, i thinkbo donald trump is authentically pro-israel. this is very important to evangelical christians. as a result, that is a big part of both this victory and the general election victory. i know the leadership of the evangelical community discussed israel with him and tried to make certain that he was solid on the issue from the start. >> bill: trump has been pretty consistent in saying that we are going to protect israel. the reason evangelicals are interested is because the holy land is there. the christian sites are there as well as the muslim sites and the jewish sites. all right, brand-new fox poll just handed to me, on a supreme court nominee, neil gorsuch, would you approve him, 42% -- 49% would. no, 37%, no opinion, 14%.

and then we have another question. the democrats doing everything they can to block mr. gorsuch from becoming a supreme court justice, do you approve of that? 42% approve. 54% don't. that seems to say that the american people -- okay, here's another one. supreme court, is it tooer liberal? 31%, about right.su too conservative, 18%. so neil gorsuch looks like he's in pretty good shape. i think he'll be confirmed. i'm not sure about the timeline on it. >> the poll is a good news for him. what i thought was interesting was, an even higher percentage of the electorate dislikes the democrat approach, don't ever vote on him, obstruct him, stop him from serving, then -- you touched briefly on this. an indication of hownd unanchord a lot of public opinion is. if you look at that final question, which is, "do you think supreme court decisions are too liberal, about right,re or too conservative," the last time fox news asked that question was in 2015. 45% back then said "too liberal."

times since the first of the year on drugs and weapons charges. nevertheless, judge nicole taylor allowed mr. deal to avoid jail, even though the prosecution told her he was dangerous.vo one day later, deal was shot dead by police. >> dramatic video caught by body camera worn by a baltimore city police officer. still pictures show the suspect emerges from an alley with a gun in his hand. his finger on the trigger. he points it at the officer. a loaded 9mm handgun, police say. then, the decision, seemingly without only three seconds, officer kincaid fires his weapon, shot deal three times, killing him. >> bill: here now to explain further, fox news anchor martha maccallum, you see herer at 7:00 p.m. right before "the factor." a heroin dealer, this kid.

>> large-scale drug deals, he had been arrested three times since january of 2017, just the past few months. they brought a man on the third charge. she let him go, this judge, nicole miller. she said, essentially, that she -- nicole taylor, excuse me.t she said she wanted him to go back to school, she said she felt -- he was a basketball player, wanted to join the army. the safest thing for this young man and for the community around him was for him to stay in that jail. he would be alive today if she had put him in jail most likely. an officer could very easily have been killed in this moment. i mean, he turns and points his gun back.ic you get the screenshot. it's very clear. >> bill: we want to make it clear, there has been no demonstrations or anything that are criticizing the police. it is pretty clear that the body cam on the officer shows what happened.. but here is the deal.. if you are a judge, a sitting criminal judge, and you have a guy come in three times in 30 days, all right, on guns and heroin charges, and you let him go the third time, you should not be sitting on any bench

anywhere. this is happening all over the country. >> she's a former public defender. and, you know, she clearly had sympathy for him -- >> bill: public defenders defend poor people. >> it is exactly right. he was also safer if she had put him in jail. >> bill: right. >> he needed to be in jail, this young man. now he is dead and a police officer could have very easily lost his life. >> bill: the point is made. it is so outrageous that we are living in a time, you know, everybody is screaming about gun control. this guy had a gun and she lets him out. if you have a gun, you shouldn't be out. anywhere. okay. now, there was an ad that caught our eye made by a veterans organization, an anti-trump ad. go. >> president trump, i hear you watch the morning shows. here's what i do every morning.

look. you lost the popular vote. you are having trouble drawing l crowd. and your approval rating keeps sinking. but kicking thousands of my fellow veterans off their healtu insurance by killing the affordable care act and banning muslims won't help. that is not the america i sacrificed for. you want to be a legitimate president, sir? then act like s one. >> bill: okay, so that is put out by a far-left organization.. >> dot org, it is called. >> bill: nobody knows what that is. you see a guy who lost his leg in the service of his country, complaining about the president. what is the background of this organization? >> it is a progressive group that supports veterans.er they have also done a lot for gay rights issues, labor issues, and this instance, it is a pretty powerful ad. they placed it on "snl," they placed it on "morning joe," and places that they feely president trump is watching to make their point.

they are talking out against what they see as cutting benefits, health care benefits, if obamacare goes -- >> bill: it's a truly political play that exploits -- >> very much against donald trump, they have spoken out against him many, many times. >> bill: you could get just as many wounded veterans to say good things. >> absolutely.an we have seen that.t, >> bill: it's america, you can do it, but i don't think it is very dignified to do. now, we told the audience we will find out who is beyond this grab your wallet deal that hasni organized the nordstrom's attacks and getting the trump products out. so tell us who is doing this. >> her name is shannon coulter, 45 years old, a marketing executive from san francisco. this is what she does all day. she has given over all of her client business for someone else to take care of because she is so obsessed with the grab your wallet movement. the screen that you just saw is list of companies who not only sell trump products but who have any affiliation with trumpth products, even amazon is on that list because there are trump products you can find on amazon. she is encouraging people to boycott. y >> bill: this is a f san francisco woman who was a

successful businessperson who now runs this grab your wallet, and she wants to intimidate companies that sell any trump products. that is what she does full-timea again, perfect right to do that, is it really nice to do that? is that the american way? i don't think so. >> here's the other thing, it's probably not effective. there is no indication -- >> bill: nordstrom's booted ivanka. >> because it is not a public company, you can't see the bottom line that clearly. studies show that the trump brand went out about 35% after he was elected. "business insider" did a study and looked at that. people burn out on these things. they like to buy the stuff. they tend to go back to it after a momentary boycott. but we'll see. t >> bill: martha maccallum, everybody.
