The Rich Zeoli Show- Hour 2:

4:30pm- It’s a miracle! Matt actually returns from a break with decent music.
4:35pm- While speaking with CNN, Senator John Fetterman (D-PA) claimed that President Joe Biden was “perfect” and completely “engaged” while campaigning with him over the weekend in Pennsylvania.
4:45pm- Over the weekend, California Governor Gavin Newsom visited Bucks County, Pennsylvania to campaign on behalf of President Joe Biden. While speaking with the press, Gov. Newsom responded awkwardly when asked if he would support Vice President Kamala Harris as president if Biden were to withdraw.
4:50pm- According to Real Clear Politics polling averages, Donald Trump currently leads in nearly every key swing state: Arizona (+5), Nevada (+5), Wisconsin (+2), Michigan (+1), Pennsylvania (+5), and Georgia (+4). Biden currently leads in Virginia (+2) and Minnesota (+3)—though, the most recent polls suggest VA and MN are now tied.
