Bill O’Reilly’s No Spin News and Analysis - The O'Reilly Update, March 17, 2026

Bill O'Reilly here, you are listening to the O'Reilly update coming up next.

The news with Mike Slater.

Thank you, Bill.

It is Tuesday, March 17th, 2026.

Here's what's happening today in America, third country back on Cuban power back off.

Iran's new Supreme Leader now out and team USA for the win.

It's all coming up.

Then Bill's going to be here for your message of the day.

First, a Minnesota judge blocked the deportation of illegal aliens to so-called safe third countries.

Well, the Department of Justice asked an appeals court to reverse the decision and two to

one, the first circuit court appeals did.

So far, the president's plan to send illegal aliens to these third, safe third countries

has enabled the deportation of over 300 illegal aliens.

These are the countries that have signed a deal with America like Espatani and Rwanda

and Ghana.

The migrants include many who are not deportable because their home country refused to accept

them.

So what are we supposed to do with them?

The Department of Homeland Security praised the ruling.

They said it has been vindicated by the first circuit.

DHS talked about these activist judges and accused them of interfering with the lawful

authority of DHS to remove illegal aliens to a country willing to accept them.

Officials in Cuba reported an island-wide blackout yesterday, 11 million people without

power.

The president, on Friday, said the island has not received oil shipments in more than

three months and was operating on solar power, natural gas, and thermoelectric plants.

And the government has had to postpone, they say, surgeries for tens of thousands of people,

although they do have a universal healthcare.

On Friday, the president confirmed that Cuba was holding talks with the United States

government as their problems continue to get worse.

Iran's new supreme leader survived U.S. and Israeli air strikes because he stepped outside

for a walk in his garden minutes before his home was hit by missiles.

This is according to leaked audio given to the telegraph.

It shows that the former supreme leader's son was targeted during the same attack that

did kill his father.

In other news supreme leader news and a fun report from the New York Post, the president

was briefed about the new supreme leader and how he might be gay.

This is from the post.

Trump couldn't contain his surprise and laughed out loud when he was briefed on the intel.

Others in the room also found it hilarious enjoying the president's reaction while one

senior intelligence official quote has not stopped laughing about it for days.

We got a big baseball game tonight, the championship of the world baseball classic the USA beat

the Dominican Republic two to one in the semis and last night, Venezuela beat Italy coming

from behind to nothing to win four to two, the big game tonight, the championship eight

o'clock Eastern on Fox from Miami, Nolan McLean of the Mets from Willow Spring, North

Carolina will be our starting pitcher.

Time now for the O'Reilly update, message of the day.

On this Tuesday, more feuding among social media pundits, much to the amusement of the

cyber, space, denizens.

Insults back and forth are attention getters, of course.

And there are some legitimate grievances here, so it's not all showbiz.

But why?

What good comes out of imitating the Hat Fields and McCoy's?

To be fair, another question could be, why not?

You can make money on the net if people click you.

Once upon a time I was in this world, but on linear television.

NBC tried to hire me away from Fox News and when I respectfully turned them down, that

network unleashed cable attack dogs to smear me.

It was unprecedented at the time.

Of course, I swung back, giving MSNBC exactly what it wanted, attention, foolish on my

part.

Then that as Pickable Al Franken, a charter member of the gutter snipe Hall of Fame, released

a book calling me a liar.

My face was on the cover of said book, I sued Franken, dance with Glee.

His book got tons of publicity.

The suit went nowhere because famous people have no standing in American civil courts.

It took a while, but I finally learned what Machiavelli wrote a long time ago.

If you are going to dine with the devil, bring a long spoon.

I'm Bill O'Reilly.

I approve the message by writing it.

You can reach me.

Bill at BillOReilly.com, Bill at BillOReilly.com, name in town if you wish to opine.

Now let's go to the mail.

Rick says, the Iran excursion has to end in five days or has to be a pro-American leader

installed.

That's the only way Republicans are going to get slaughtered in the midterms.

Well, it's not going to happen.

It's not going to end in five days, but it, you know, end of March, may be early April,

but it'll end.

I mean, Republicans understand.

Joe Milligan, Gellien O'Hau, I suppose Democrats have the right to oppose the war.

Of course they do.

But it seems to me they carry it further by openly hoping that a president and troops fail.

And that's what I set up top, your traitor if you do that.

And you know who you are.

On the message board, Colleen, not to defend President Shinebaum of Mexico, but I can understand

her position.

For one, she fears for her safety in that of her family.

This is her inauguration in October, 2004, 21 Mexico politicians have been murdered by

the drug cartel.

Well, then she should resign, Colleen.

If you're afraid to carry out your sworn duties, then you resign.

There's no excuse for what she's doing.

Renee Delusia, she lives in Washington States as we have a real problem.

Not at a Republican governor since they went to mail and ballots.

Our state is purple.

No, it's not Renee.

State is blue because of King's County, Seattle, the big county, okay?

Please help and expose the corruption here.

I wish I could, Renee, but I can't cover the corruption in all 50 states unless it rises

up to affect everybody.

If I'm in Washington State and the guy who owns Starbucks lived in Seattle, just went

to Miami.

I leave.

That's what I do.

I'm watching the state's beautiful state.

I'm gone.

In a moment, something you might not know.

The New York Post has been delivering impactful headlines for over two centuries and every

weekday morning, I'll bring them straight to you.

I'm Caitlin Becker, host of the New York Postcast.

From Washington to Wall Street, if it matters to you, you'll hear it here.

And it wouldn't be the post without the story's other outlets like to ignore.

You ask your smart speaker to play the NY Postcast.

Listen and subscribe on Apple podcasts, Spotify, or wherever you get your podcasts.

Now the O'Reilly update brings you something you might not know.

It is officially St. Patrick's Day.

Millions of people around the world will honor the patron saint of Ireland with bagpipes,

corn beef, and maybe a pint or two.

Here's how it all began.

Patrick was born in Roman occupied Britain in the late fourth century.

He was kidnapped by pagans as a teenager, taken Ireland as a slave.

He escaped returning to Britain years later to convert this healthy people to Christianity.

Then it was on to Ireland again.

During his lifetime, Patrick established monasteries, churches, religious schools.

His death, folklore, rose up, said that Patrick drove snakes into the sea.

Others say he used sham rocks to explain the Holy Trinity.

That was true.

The festivities were mostly religious until the 18th century,

when immigrants brought the legend of St. Patrick to the New World.

Boston held the first parade honoring the saint in 1737.

Wow.

The next few centuries, the Irish spread out,

creating communities in England, the US, Australia, Canada, South Africa.

Today folks around the world celebrate St. Patrick's Day with parades and libations.

The biggest parties can be found in New York City, Boston, Dublin, Montreal,

and get this Tokyo, Japan, wow, again.

And here's something else you might not know.

Many people associate the feast of St. Patrick with alcohol, primarily beer.

But that was not always the case.

In Ireland itself, St. Patrick's Day was viewed as a significant religious event

till the 1980s.

Most towns have laws restricting the sale of booze,

and pubs were closed on St. Patrick's Day across Ireland.

Well, today that's all changed.

Most boys are open 24 hours to celebrate the saint.

In total, 20 million points againness will be sold in the USA alone.

Well, I hope you all the good time.

I hope you don't get inebriated.

And I want you to have a happy St. Patrick's Day.
