About this episode

The Rich Zeoli Show- Hour 2:


4:05pm- Bruce LeVell—Senior Advisor to President Donald Trump & Former Small Business Advisory Advocate for the White House—joins The Rich Zeoli Show to discuss the 2024 campaign, Trump’s New York City trial over “hush money” payments, and President Joe Biden’s recent trip to Scranton.


4:25pm- While appearing on CNN, New York Times reporter Maggie Haberman ridiculously accused Donald Trump of glaring at her in court after she reported that Trump may have fallen asleep during legal proceedings.


4:30pm- Andrew C. McCarthy—Senior Fellow at National Review Institute & Author of “Ball of Collusion: The Plot to Rig an Election and Destroy a Presidency”—joins The Rich Zeoli Show to discuss Donald Trump’s ongoing “hush money” trial. Trump was indicted for attempting to conceal payments made to adult film actress Stormy Daniels. Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg alleges that the payment concealment amounted to falsified business records which influenced the 2016 election. McCarthy hilariously notes that Bragg’s legal argument seems to imply that it’s acceptable for a politician to pay-off adult film actresses with campaign funds provided the transactions are properly documented!

4:50pm- On Tuesday, the U.S. Supreme Court heard oral argument in Fischer v. United States—a case which will determine whether obstruction laws can be used to charge January 6th defendants. While questioning U.S. Solicitor General Elizabeth Prelogar, Justice Neil Gorsuch asked if “pulling a fire alarm before a [Congressional] vote” would qualify as obstruction, potentially resulting in up to 20-years of federal imprisonment. Notably, Congressman Jamaal Bowman (D-NY) pulled a fire alarm in the Cannon House Office Building just prior to the House holding its vote on a stopgap spending measure—allegedly to delay the vote.
