The Rich Zeoli Show- Hour 2: While speaking with Charlamagne Tha God, Dr. Phil claimed that Facebook and Instagram suppressed a recent video he posted documenting chaos at the U.S. Southern border. MSNBC legal analyst and University of Michigan law professor Barbara McQuade told Rachel Maddow that the First Amendment’s protection of free speech makes America vulnerable to misinformation. McQuade insisted that no one is endorsing a weakening of the First Amendment—right before she hinted that regulating speech might be beneficial. While speaking from Eagle Pass, Texas, Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump said that he met with the parents of Laken Riley—a 22-year-old University of Georgia student who was murdered by an undocumented migrant last Thursday. Trump stated, “[President] Joe Biden will never say Laken Riley’s name, but we will…We’re not going to forget her.” He went on to explain that undocumented migrants are pouring across the U.S. Southern border unchecked as part of the “Joe Biden inva

The Rich Zeoli Show- Hour 1: On Wednesday, during a speech from the Senate floor, Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) announced that he would be stepping down from his leadership position at the end of the term in November. Though, he does not plan to resign from the Senate. McConnell, now 82-years-old, has served in the U.S. Senate for nearly 40-years and has been the leader of the Senate Republican Conference since 2007. So, who will replace McConnell in November? Audrey Fahlberg of National Review writes: “November may be a long way off, but the shadow race to succeed McConnell is now coming into public view after unfolding behind closed doors for months. Leading the race are the ‘three Johns’—Senate GOP whip John Thune of South Dakota, conference chair John Barrasso of Wyoming, and former whip John Cornyn of Texas—all of whom have spent the past year or so privately signaling to colleagues that they would be eager to fill the role when the time came for McConnell to step aside.” You can read mo

The Rich Zeoli Show- Hour 4: Andrew C. McCarthy of National Review writes: “[Donald] Trump’s legal team has asked the Appellate Division-First Department to accept a $100 million bond for the purposes of enabling him to appeal the civil-fraud judgment against him and of stopping New York attorney general Letitia James from beginning to execute that judgment—i.e., to start seizing his property if he can’t pay up in cash. The problem, of course, is that the judgment against him is $450 million—with interest, which continues to accrue at about $112,000 per day.” You can read more here: https://www.nationalreview.com/2024/02/trump-tells-new-york-appeals-court-he-cant-post-full-bond/ Jess Bravin of The Wall Street Journal writes: “The Supreme Court agreed to consider whether Donald Trump must stand trial on charges he plotted to overturn the 2020 election, after lower courts rejected his claim that he is entitled to absolute immunity because he was president at the time.

The court’s move means it will have final say on an issue the judiciary never confronted before Trump. But it also means the former president has bought himself at least another couple of months before any trial, which had been scheduled to start in early March before the immunity battle scuttled those plans

The Rich Zeoli Show- Hour 4: Adam Entous and Michael Schwirtz of The New York Times write: “Now entering the third year of a war that has claimed hundreds of thousands of lives, the intelligence partnership between Washington and Kyiv is a linchpin of Ukraine’s ability to defend itself. The C.I.A. and other American intelligence agencies provide intelligence for targeted missile strikes, track Russian troop movements and help support spy networks… But the partnership is no wartime creation…As the partnership deepened after 2016, the Ukrainians became impatient with what they considered Washington’s undue caution, and began staging assassinations and other lethal operations, which violated the terms the White House thought the Ukrainians had agreed to. Infuriated, officials in Washington threatened to cut off support, but they never did.” You can read the full article here: https://www.nytimes.com/2024/02/25/world/europe/cia-ukraine-intelligence-russia-war.html In a piece published by The Atlantic, former New

Murphy of New Jersey spoke proudly about his plan to let a corporate business tax expire, framing it as a promise kept in a state striving to compete for entrepreneurs… On Tuesday, Mr. Murphy will propose reversing course and again implementing a corporate business tax of 11.5 percent—the nation’s highest rate—for the state’s most profitable companies, according to several of his aides. He is expected to present the restoration of the tax as part of a permanent solution to the dire financial condition of New Jersey’s statewide transit system during his annual budget address at the State House.” You can read more here: https://www.nytimes.com/2024/02/27/nyregion/new-jersey-transit-taxes.html?searchResultPosition=1 According to a recent poll from Rasmussen, a whopping 48% of Democrat voters say they would like to see Joe Biden replaced as the party’s presidential candidate in 2024.

The Rich Zeoli Show- Hour 2: Jonah E. Bromwich, Ben Protess, and William K. Rashbaum of The New York Times write: “Manhattan prosecutors on Monday asked the judge overseeing their criminal case against Donald J. Trump to prohibit the former president from attacking witnesses or exposing jurors’ identities… The gag order in the Manhattan case, if the judge approves it, would bar Mr. Trump from ‘making or directing others to make’ statements about witnesses concerning their role in the case. The district attorney, Alvin L. Bragg, also asked that Mr. Trump be barred from commenting on prosecutors on the case…The Manhattan criminal case was the first of Mr. Trump’s four indictments to be filed and is scheduled to go to trial on March 25. Last year, the district attorney’s office accused Mr. Trump of 34 felonies, saying he had orchestrated a cover-up of a potential sex scandal with a porn star that could have hindered his 2016 presidential campaign… Mr. Bragg has cast Mr. Trump’s actions as election interference,

Amanda Prestigiacomo of The Daily Wire writes: “The Washington Post’s Taylor Lorenz on Saturday sat down with the woman behind the popular ‘Libs of TikTok’ X account, Chaya Raichik, for a videotaped interview, and made a stunning admission. Lorenz, who doxxed and has routinely targeted Raichik, mostly for reposting videos that people on the Left post of themselves, admitted that she has not viewed some of the most sexually graphic material aimed at children that Raichik has posted about online. Still, Lorenz was ready to defend the sexual content and suggest Raichik is a hateful bigot for standing against its promotion in schools.” You can read the full article, and watch the conversation, here: https://www.dailywire.com/news/jou
