As Katrina’s floodwaters begin to recede, Mayor Ray Nagin (search) has authorized law enforcement officers to evacuate an estimated 10,000 residents who refuse to heed orders to leave. But who’s really in charge of this operation, how are they handling the order, and how much force can the long arm of the law use to facilitate the mandatory removal of the Big Easy’s most stubborn citizens? Judge Andrew Napolitano says forcing people out is unconstitutional and he'll debate it with FOX News military analyst Lt. Col. Bill Cowan.

And, we’ll have an update on crime in New Orleans (search) since the looting began. Are things finally under control? The city's deputy police Chief Warren Riley and Louisiana State Police PIO Johnnie Brown join Bill tonight.

Also, a report on the littlest victims. Hurricane Katrina (search) separated hundreds of children from their parents. We’ll talk to Ernie Allen from the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children (search) about the efforts to find and reunite those caught up in the storm across Mississippi, Louisiana, and Alabama.

Then, should FEMA (search) be removed from the Department of Homeland Security's (search) control? Michelle Malkin has that report. Plus, Senator Hillary Clinton (search) calls for a Katrina commission!

About the Show

"Other interview news shows are guest-driven," says Emmy award-winning broadcast journalist Bill O'Reilly. "'The O'Reilly Factor' is driven by me. I will not stand for 'spin.' I look for guests who will stand up and verbally battle for what they believe in."

"The O'Reilly Factor" uncovers news items from the established wisdom and goes against the grain of the more traditional interview-style programs. O'Reilly's signature "No Spin Zone" cuts through the rhetoric as he interviews the players who make the story newsworthy.

Pushing beyond just the headlines, "The O'Reilly Factor" also features issues from local markets that do not find the national spotlight on other newscasts. According to O'Reilly, "Just because a story originates from somewhere the networks typically avoid, doesn't mean it contains less challenging issues, or compelling ideas."

See you in the No Spin Zone, tonight at 8 p.m. and 11 p.m. ET!
