Summary

The Rich Zeoli Show- Full Episode (05/21/2025): 3:05pm- Jake Tapper’s new book, “Original Sin: President Biden's Decline, Its Cover-up, and His Disastrous Choice to Run Again,” which is critical of the Biden Administration for covering up the president’s physical and cognitive decline is due to be released later this week. While Tapper is now reporting on internal stories about Biden’s health decline, why did he ignore the story prior to Biden’s withdrawal from the 2024 presidential election? Notably, during an interview with Lara Trump, Tapper vociferously denied Joe Biden was experiencing any sort of cognitive decline and suggested that people were merely picking on the then-president for suffering from a life-long stutter. 3:30pm- Tom Homan—Trump Administration Border Czar—joins The Rich Zeoli Show to discuss how the Big Beautiful Bill Act will benefit border security and fulfill President Donald Trump’s campaign pledge to stifle illegal border crossings. He explains: “We have the most secure border in the most history of the country, but we need to finish it. We need to make it permanent!” 4:05pm- On Wednesday, South African President Cyril Ramaphosa joined President Donald Trump in the Oval Office. During the meeting, Trump confronted Ramaphosa with video clips and news articles documenting instances of genocide against white South African farmers. Ramaphosa denied the allegations, but Trump continued to pushback with evidence: "You do allow them to take land. And then when they take the land, they kill the white farmer—and when they kill the white farmer, nothing happens to them." 4:15pm- In response to the Oval Office confrontation between President Donald Trump and South African President Cyril Ramaphosa, many media outlets ignored Trump’s claims of an unfolding genocide—with CNN even accusing Trump of “ambushing” the South African president. 4:40pm- On Wednesday, President Donald Trump welcomed the NCAA Men’s Basketball Champion Florida Gators to the White House. 4:50pm- While appearing on CNN, “Original Sin: President Biden's Decline, Its Cover-up, and His Disastrous Choice to Run Again” co-author Alex Thompson discussed a particularly disturbing report documented in his new book. Thompson explained that the 2024 Biden campaign spent millions of dollars on producing a fake town hall—but then couldn’t use the content because Joe Biden’s performance was so poor. 5:05pm- Susan Crabtree—RealClearPolitics National Political Correspondent & Author of the book, “Fools Gold: The Radicals, Con Artists, and Traitors Who Killed the California Dream and Now Threaten Us All”—joins The Rich Zeoli Show to discuss FBI Director Kash Patel and FBI Deputy Director Dan Bongino revealing that there is no evidence suggesting a larger conspiracy surrounding the assassination attempt against Donald Trump in Butler, Pennsylvania. But why are there still so many unanswered questions? 5:40pm- Brand Manager Greg Stocker joins the show, John Cena’s apology to China was so awkward and hilarious that we must play it again—four-years later, and how do you pronounce “Ingraham”? 6:05pm- Rich is joined in studio by… Nick Kayal, Dawn Stensland, and Greg Stocker! Don’t they have a show to do in 12-hours? 6:10pm- Democrat political strategist James Carville baselessly claimed that Acting U.S. Attorney for the District of New Jersey Alina Habba only charged Rep. LaMonica McIver with assault of an ICE agent outside of Delaney Hall in Newark, NJ because of her skin color. Carville argued: “I don’t have any proof…but I think if it was a white congressperson, they would not have arrested her.” 6:15pm- Now Dom Giordano is in studio! What did he think of last night’s NJ Republican Gubernatorial Primary? And will the One Big Beautiful Bill Act be passed? Plus is it sauce or gravy? 6:30pm- During a Wednesday Senate hearing, Secretary of State Marco Rubio destroyed progressive Congresswoman Pramila Jayapal during a debate over the revocation ...

Busy Wednesday.

0:18.4

So at least we are getting through the week. And I'm pretty sure today's going to be

0:24.0

kind of a crazy day, just knowing how the day started with this Oval Office meeting with the

0:29.8

president of South Africa. And yeah, you know, I've been hearing about this, these claims of

0:35.2

genocide that's been happening there for months.

0:38.3

It has not been addressed in our country.

0:41.1

I just, I mean, if there's, if there's a claim of genocide happening anywhere, what I

0:46.6

still can't understand is, when are we going to realize we don't have an actual media in this

0:51.4

country?

0:51.7

Because they're not interested in investigating and finding out if it's happening. All they're interested in doing is just denying that it's

0:57.4

happening with no basis whatsoever other than to say that, well, Trump said it, so therefore

1:01.8

it must not be happening. Well, but what if it is? What if it's real? Why not it take five

1:07.1

minutes to actually do your job and try to figure this out. But they're not. CNN's already

1:12.4

doing the usual nonsense of pretending like Trump is just making stuff up. And then I guess they'll

1:18.4

write a book about it at some point and tell us how the genocide was real. And then Jake Tapper can go on

1:25.6

about how he was calling it real the whole time,

1:27.7

even though we'll have audio of him saying otherwise.
