The Rich Zeoli Show- Hour 3:

5:05pm- Dr. Martin Kulldorff— Former Professor of Medicine at Harvard University and Mass General Brigham—joins The Rich Zeoli Show to discuss his latest editorial for City Journal, “Harvard Tramples the Truth.” Dr. Kulldorff was fired from Harvard University for speaking out against mandatory vaccinations and publicly questioning the validity of widespread lockdowns. He writes: “Almost everyone now realizes that school closures and other lockdowns, were a colossal mistake. Francis Collins has acknowledged his error of singularly focusing on Covid without considering collateral damage to education and non-Covid health outcomes. That’s the honest thing to do, and I hope this honesty will reach Harvard. The public deserves it, and academia needs it to restore its credibility. Science cannot survive in a society that does not value truth and strive to discover it. The scientific community will gradually lose public support and slowly disintegrate in such a culture. The pursuit of truth requires academic freedom with open, passionate, and civilized scientific discourse, with zero tolerance for slander, bullying, or cancellation. My hope is that someday, Harvard will find its way back to academic freedom and independence.” You can read the full article here: https://www.city-journal.org/article/harvard-tramples-the-truth

5:30pm- Kevin Tan of Business Insider writes: “A Texas man says he believes anybody else should be president instead of the current Democratic and GOP frontrunners. And he's taking things into his own hands and running a long shot race to prove a point—by changing his name to ‘Literally Anybody Else.’” You can read the full article here: https://www.businessinsider.com/texas-man-named-literally-anybody-else-is-running-for-president-2024-3

5:45pm- In their recent Wall Street Journal editorial, Jonathan A. Lesser and Mark P. Mills write: “Widespread adoption of EVs will require an unprecedented and staggeringly expensive expansion of local electrical grids. This will require a huge increase in the production of electrical transformers, along with more power plants and transmission lines to produce and deliver energy. This overhaul must include upgrading local grid distribution at the roughly 3,000 electric utilities across the country—the wires, poles and transformers that line our streets. There are 60 million to 80 million distribution transformers in neighborhoods, designed for existing loads. Around one million new ones are sold annually, two-thirds of which replace aged-out transformers. That replacement rate isn’t close to meeting the EPA’s dreams. Millions more—and heavier—transformers will be needed to handle higher power levels and more frequent use, even if many EVs are charged overnight. This will also require replacing many of the existing utility poles to handle new transformers’ extra weight.” You can read the full editorial here: https://www.wsj.com/articles/can-we-power-the-epas-ev-fantasy-electrical-grid-energy-vehicles-a786d535?mod=opinion_lead_pos6
