Summary

The Rich Zeoli Show- Hour 2: 4:05pm- Congressman Jeff Van Drew—United States Representative for New Jersey’s 2nd Congressional District—joins The Rich Zeoli Show to recap Inauguration Day in Washington D.C., the Laken Riley Act, and President Donald Trump’s Day 1 executive orders which included a pause on the development of offshore wind farms in the Atlantic and Pacific oceans! Rep. Van Drew explains “it’s a great day for the Jersey Shore.” 4:30pm- Prior to leaving office, President Joe Biden issued a series of preemptive pardons for five of his family members, Gen. Mark Milley, Dr. Anthony Fauci, and members of the House committee investigating January 6—including Rep. Jamie Raskin and former Congressmembers Adam Kinzinger and Liz Cheney. Even allies within the Democrat Party, like Sen. Cory Booker, had a hard time defending the outgoing president’s decision. 4:40pm- On Monday night, President Donald Trump pardoned 1,500+ Americans arrested for a series of crimes related to events at the U.S. Capitol on January 6th, 2021 and commuted the sentences of 14 others. Rich notes that several things can be true at once: some of those arrested acted abhorrently, but the Department of Justice was overly aggressive with prosecutions. 4:50pm- Did Rich mention he was on Fox News earlier today?
