The Rich Zeoli Show- Full Episode (01/23/2025): 3:05pm- 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 he 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. According to some reports, Philadelphia District Attorney Larry Krasner is at least considering charging January 6th offenders with local crimes which would not be covered under President Trump’s pardon. 3:15pm- In the Oval Office on Monday night, President Donald Trump signed an executive order clarifying the 14th Amendment—emphasizing limitations to “birthright citizenship.” The Trump Administration’s interpretation states that the children of non-U.S. citizens who are in the country unlawfully should not be granted citizenship. The Congressional Research Center has noted that the Supreme Court “has not firmly settled the issue in the modern era.” Rich points out that courts already recognize a narrow exception to the 14th Amendment, not granting U.S. citizenship to the children of diplomats. 3:40pm- Michael Donahue—Cape May GOP Chairman & former New Jersey Superior Court Judge—joins The Rich Zeoli Show to discuss the American First Policy Institute establishing a New Jersey-based chapter of their organization with Donahue serving as Chair! 4:05pm- On Thursday, President Donald Trump invited reporters to the Oval Office to watch him sign several executive orders—including one which authorizes the release of the John F.

At one point, Trump defiantly proclaimed: “I terminated the ridiculous and incredibly wasteful Green New Deal—I call it the Green New Scam. I withdrew from the one-sided Paris Climate Accord and ended the insane and costly electric vehicle mandate. We’re going to let people buy the car they want to buy.” 5:30pm- On Thursday, President Donald Trump invited reporters to the Oval Office to watch him sign several executive orders—including one which authorizes the release of the John F. Kennedy, Robert Kennedy, and Martin Luther King Jr. assassination files. Will the soon-to-be released files show that President Kennedy was killed by the C.I.A.??? Matt emphatically says he doesn’t believe in conspiracy theories and thinks Gerald Posner’s assessment is likely correct—there was no “inside job.” But Rich and Justin want to see the unredacted files before accepting that Lee Harvey Oswald acted alone. 5:40pm- While speaking to reporters outside of the White House, Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt confirmed that 1,500 U.S. troops will be sent to the Southern border to protect the country’s sovereignty.
