Summary
The Rich Zeoli Show- Hour 4:
- On Wednesday, American Federation of Teachers President Randi Weingarten testified during a House Oversight and Accountability Subcommittee on the Coronavirus Crisis. During the hearing, Weingarten claimed she attempted to reopen schools during the pandemic as quickly as possible—but since there wasn’t “clear scientific guidance” her union had to “do it themselves.” While appearing on CNN following her Congressional testimony, Weingarten continued to deny having ever advocated for prolonged school shutdowns—CNN Senior Political Commentator Scott Jennings called Weingarten out for attempting to rewrite history.
- At a campaign rally in New Hampshire on Thursday, former President Donald Trump hilariously announced he would be retiring the name “crooked” for Hillary Clinton and would be bestowing it upon Joe Biden—referring to Biden as the most crooked politician in the country.
- With Tucker Carlson gone, what is next for Fox News?
- While answering a question from Bill Rhoden of ESPN, WNBA player Brittney Griner said it should be a “crime” to prevent biological males from competing in women’s sports. Last year, Griner was freed from a Russian prison when the Biden Administration agreed to a prisoner swap that resulted in the release of arms dealer Viktor Bout.
