• In a clip that has gone viral, Justin Trudeau— son of Pierre Trudeau and definitely not the son of Cuban dictator Fidel Castro— was confronted by a critic who mocked the Canadian Prime Minister for claiming to be concerned about climate change while simultaneously allowing “nine V8 engines” in his motorcade to remain “idling for 30-minutes.”
• Comedian Mark Riccadonna joins The Rich Zeoli Show for a hilarious conversation. On Thursday, Senator Bob Menendez (D-NJ) was charged with acting as a foreign agent for Egypt. Riccadonna notes that he thought all international secret agents looked like James Bond in Goldeneye—but now Menendez has proven cinema wrong. Want to see one of Mark’s upcoming shows?

• On Thursday night, Representative Steve Scalise (R-LA) announced that he would withdraw from the House speakership race—seemingly clearing a path for Rep. Jim Jordan (R-OH) to become the new Republican nominee. But can Jordan get the 217 House votes he needs? Luke Broadwater of The New York Times writes: “Representative Ann Wagner of Missouri called Mr. Jordan’s candidacy a ‘nonstarter.’ Representative Don Bacon of Nebraska, who represents a district won by President Biden, said lawmakers were worried about caving to the whims of the hard-right members who had refused to back Mr. Scalise. Representative Kelly Armstrong of North Dakota, a supporter of Mr. Jordan’s, acknowledged that there were Republicans who would not support him ‘because they don’t want to reward that behavior.’ Some members, foreseeing a fight that could drag on for weeks, were also discussing how they might give Representative Patrick T. McHenry of North Carolina—the temporary speaker whose role is primarily to hold an election for a speaker—more power to carry out the chamber’s work until the conflict could be resolved.” You can read Broadwater’s full article here: https://www.nytimes.com/2023/10/13/us/politics/house-speaker-jordan-scalise.html
