Summary
The Rich Zeoli Show- Hour 1:
3:05pm- On Tuesday, Democratic presidential nominee Kamala Harris announced her running mate: Minnesota Governor Tim Walz. Almost immediately, videos of Walz making outlandish, progressive statements began circulating social media. In one clip, Walz explains that socialism is synonymous with neighborliness. While speaking at the Minnesota Democratic-Farmer-Labor Party Convention in 2018, Walz told attendees that his pro-abortion stance was so radical that even former Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) suggested he should moderate his position.
3:15pm- In response to Kamala Harris’s Vice Presidential selection of Tim Walz, former Obama Administration Advisor Van Jones said it’s likely Harris caved to anti-Semitic elements within the Democrat Party who didn’t want to see Pennsylvania Governor Josh Shapiro on the ticket due to his religion.
3:40pm- Dr. Ben Carson—Former U.S. Secretary of Housing and Urban Development & a Retired Neurosurgeon and Professor of Medicine at Johns Hopkins University—joins The Rich Zeoli Show and says he was “delighted” to hear that Kamala Harris selected Governor Tim Walz to be her running mate, as Walz provides very little to her campaign and further illustrates to commonsense voters that Harris is a radical progressive. Dr. Carson is author of the new book: “The Perilous Fight: Overcoming Our Culture’s War on the American Family”—which he co-authored with his wife, Candy Carson.

| 0:10.0 | as the news broke How awkward is that Philadelphia rally going to be this afternoon with Josh Shapiro, which is going to be happening very soon? |
| 0:27.0 | Very awkward. But beyond that, beyond that is really the point of what does this guy bring to the table other than |
| 0:35.9 | being a like a I don't know like a like a like a folksy Midwestern white dude |
| 0:41.7 | what does he bring in the table? He's a he's a super |
| 0:45.0 | progressive, big-time progressive guy and it's a blue state and I'm sorry but a |
| 0:52.2 | lot of his policies are not going to play in other states that are up for grabs just November. |
| 0:55.6 | So I'll break all that down for you. |
| 0:57.4 | I think it was a terrible move on their part. |
| 0:59.6 | I'm relieved because, well, I didn't really, look, I didn't make any predictions about who the vice |
| 1:05.0 | presidential pick was going to be just like I didn't predict with Trump either I |
| 1:08.0 | these things are too difficult to predict if you're not in the room I didn't make any |
| 1:11.4 | predictions on this I did say a while ago though that I thought it was going to be tough for Josh appear to be picked because he was Jewish. And you have this absolutely anti-Jewish, anti-Israel pro pro-Hammas strain like a virus running for the |
| 1:25.8 | Democrat Party right now and I think at the end of the day that he was just |
| 1:29.9 | not not going to get the pick. I mean there was the genocide Josh movement. |
| 1:34.4 | Yesterday I'm warning Joe, you know Joe Scarborough and the head of the ADL they were |
| 1:39.3 | trying to allude to the fact that all these Democrats were coming out they're were making anti-submitted comments about |
| 1:45.0 | Josh Shapiro and they were trying their best to save it but it's just the Jewish factor was too much |
| 1:52.1 | to overcome. |
