Bill O'Reilly here. You are listening to the weekend edition of the O'Reilly update.

Coming up next, the news with Mike Slater.

Thanks, Bill. Here's what's happening this week in America.

Trump's Christmas message. Southern California flooding, Washington Monument Illumination,

and don't watch the abridged version.

It's all coming up.

Then Bill is going to be here with your message of the day.

But first, other than the president's usual Christmas message format, which starts out with

Merry Christmas to all, including this year, the radical left scum that is doing everything

possible to destroy our country but are failing

badly. That's his normal Christmas message. Other than that, he also sent a tweet yesterday.

Tonight, at my discretion, as commander-in-chief, the United States launched a powerful and deadly

strike against ISIS-terrorist scum in northwest Nigeria, who have been targeting and viciously

killing, primarily in a sense,

Christians, at levels not seen for many years and even centuries. I have previously warned these

terrorists that if they did not stop slaughtering of Christians, there would be hell to pay,

and tonight there was. The Department of War executed numerous perfect strikes,

as only the United States is capable of doing.

Under my leadership, our country will not allow radical Islamic terrorism to prosper.

May God bless our military and Merry Christmas to all, including the dead terrorists,

of which there will be many more if their slaughter of Christians continues.

A lot more flooding in Southern California.
