Republican political commentator and former Fox News host Bill O'Reilly hasn't been making as much news since being forced out from his home network.

That didn't stop a recent tweet of his about reparations for slavery—which were recently explored by a House Judiciary subcommittee—from backfiring in the best way.


O'Reilly called the idea that the founders of the United States were racist and designed a system that primarily benefitted white men a "radical belief," despite many of the founding fathers owning slaves and only allowing white men to vote.


O'Reilly also implied that a lack of personal responsibility, rather than institutional injustice, is to blame for the narrative that 400 years of slavery in America still affects lives and livelihoods today.

People were quick to point out that these "radical beliefs" are actually objective facts.




They brought receipts too.



Where's the lie?



Facts are facts, Bill, not radical beliefs.

GOP Senator Gets Blunt Reality Check After Comparing Trump Tariff 'Pain' To Home Renovation

Montana Republican Senator Tim Sheehy was criticized after he tried to compare the "short-term pain" of President Donald Trump's tariffs to home renovation, a claim so ridiculous that CNN's Kaitlan Collins quickly pushed back on the analogy.

Trump has repeatedly referred to April 2 as “Liberation Day,” pledging to impose tariffs—taxes on imports—to reduce U.S. reliance on foreign goods. He has framed these tariffs as “reciprocal,” aiming to match the duties other nations place on American exports.

Liberal Wisconsin Judge Calls Out Elon Musk In Victory Speech—And It's Everything

Liberal judge Susan Crawford called out billionaire Elon Musk in her victory speech after winning a seat on the Wisconsin Supreme Court, basking in successfully beating her Republican opponent Brad Schimel and ensuring that the nonpartisan court’s narrow 4-3 liberal majority remains intact despite Musk's efforts to sway the race.

Musk fueled the high-stakes race, having poured more than $20 million into supporting Schimel, according to state campaign records. That includes $3 million to the state Republican Party—$2 million of which was donated just last week. Due to state election laws, large contributions must be funneled through political parties before reaching candidates.
