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 Thursday, November 13th, 2025. Here's this happening today in America.

Zoran building bridges. Crime down in Chicago. Crime up in Berkeley and the end of an era.

It's all coming up. Then Bill is going to be here with your message of the day. But first, Zohran Mamdani, the mayor elect of New York City, said he's going to be reaching out to the president before he takes office on January 1st. He said this is a relationship that will be critical to the success of this city. He said he will inform the president that he's here to work for the benefit of everyone that calls New York City home. And wherever there's a possibility for working together towards that end, I am ready. Trump said of Mamdani's victory speech, it was a very angry speech, certainly angry towards me. I think he should be very nice to me. You know, I'm the one that sort of has to approve a lot of things coming for him, so he's off to a bad start. About $4 billion of Section 8 money that goes to New York City comes from the federal government. It's about 75% of its budget.

Good news out of Chicago, the president said that despite all the opposition from their radical

mayor and governor, there has been a drop in crime in just a couple weeks from Operation Midway Blitz.

Shootings are down 35%.

Robberies down 41%.

Carjacking's down 50%.

And the president said this is just with a small initial federal force, not the full surge we've done in Memphis.

Crime is up in Berkeley, California, at least at this turning point event, featuring

Charlie Kirk's mentor, Frank Turrick, and comedian Rob Schneider. A bit of a melee outside.

There was a man outside wearing a red freedom shirt. Blood all over his face. Police identified the man who

assaulted him. 25-year-old Jihad. D.P.H. What do you do with that? D.P.H. DeFraplez.

The DOJ announced that it has launched an investigation into Berkeley. Harmeet Dillon, who's the Assistant Attorney General for the Civil Rights Division,

said that under Pambani's leadership, we've asked Berkeley police to preserve all records

regarding their response to the mob violence at UC Berkeley's Turning Point USA event.

The U.S. Mint will officially stop minting the penny.

Yesterday, the very last penny was minted. The conservative side of me that likes to conserve things doesn't like this one bit. We got to keep

the penny for old times sake. But then we find out that we printed 2.3 billion pennies last

year and each one costs 3.7 cents.

Every penny costs 3.7 cents to make.
