The Rich Zeoli Show- Full Episode:

3:05pm- On Tuesday, Republican presidential candidate Nikki Haley teased a “major” speech. Many media outlets believed Haley was announcing the suspension of her campaign ahead of Saturday’s South Carolina primary, her home state, where she is projected to lose by 25-points, according to Real Clear Politics polling averages. However, she vowed to continue with her long-shot campaign.

3:10pm- In his Silver Bulletin newsletter, statistician Nate Silver wrote: “If you’d asked me a year ago, I would have told you that Joe Biden was a reasonably clear favorite in the event of a rematch against Donald Trump. Not an overwhelming favorite, mind you. But perhaps a 65:35 favorite…Since then, Biden’s situation has become considerably worse…Personally, I crossed the Rubicon in November, concluding that Biden should stand down if he wasn’t going to be able to run a normal reelection campaign—meaning, things like conduct a Super Bowl interview. Yes, it's a huge risk and, yes, Biden can still win. But he's losing now and there's no plan to fix the problems other than hoping that the polls are wrong or that voters look at the race differently when they have more time to focus on it.” You can read more here: https://www.natesilver.net/p/its-time-for-the-white-house-to-put

3:15pm- During an interview with Jonathan Karl on ABC’s This Week, radio personality Charlamagne tha God referred to President Joe Biden as an “uninspiring candidate” and did not endorse him in the 2024 presidential election.

3:30pm- Flashback: During a debate with Democrat presidential candidate Walter Mondale in 1984, President Ronald Reagan was asked about his advanced age. He joked: “I will not make age an issue of this campaign. I am not going to exploit, for political purposes, my opponent's youth and inexperience."

3:40pm- Dan McLaughlin—Senior Writer at National Review Online and Fellow at National Review Institute—joins The Rich Zeoli Show to discuss his recent article, “There’s No Defending Woodrow Wilson.” Was Woodrow Wilson the worst president in American history? Wilson was responsible for “subverting” the U.S. Constitution and greatly expanding the power and size of the executive branch. McLaughlin jokes that it’s part of our patriotic duty to dislike Wilson and notes he’s also responsible for daylight saving time!

4:05pm- On Tuesday, Republican presidential candidate Nikki Haley teased a “major” speech. Many media outlets believed Haley was announcing the suspension of her campaign ahead of Saturday’s South Carolina primary, her home state, where she is projected to lose by 25-points, according to Real Clear Politics polling averages.

4:10pm- While speaking with Jen Psaki on MSNBC, Congresswoman Nancy Pelosi baselessly claimed that Russian President Vladimir Putin and the Kremlin could successfully bribe Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump if he were ever to return to office.

4:15pm- While appearing on CNN, businessman Kevin O’Leary warned that Judge Arthur F. Engoron’s decision to fine Donald Trump $354 million for inflating the value of assets controlled by the Trump Organization in past financial statements could lead to businesses fleeing the state of New York—resulting in severe economic damages. O’Leary also noted how strange the civil suit was considering there were no victims.

4:30pm- George Washington University Law School professor Jonathan Turley told a Fox News panel that he would not be surprised to see Donald Trump appeal his $354 million fine all the way to the U.S. Supreme Court.

4:50pm- During a conversation with Bari Weiss of The Free Press, Harvard University economics professor Roland Fryer revealed that “all hell broke loose” following the publication of a 2017 study he conducted on police shootings and the use of force based on race. Fryer writes: “On non-lethal uses of force, blacks and Hispanics are more than fifty percent more likely to experience some form of force in interactions with police. Adding controls that account for important context and civilian behavior reduces, but cannot fully explain, these disparities. On the most extreme use of force—officer-involved shootings—we find no racial differences in either the raw data or when contextual factors are taken into account.” Because Fryer’s research concluded that there is no racial bias in police shootings, there was immediate backlash from members of academia.

5:05pm- Dr. Wilfred Reilly—Professor of Political Science at Kentucky State University & Author of “Lies My Liberal Teacher Told Me”—joins The Rich Zeoli Show to discuss the way Harvard economist Roland Fryer was treated by academia after he published a research study indicating no racial bias in police shootings.

6:05pm- In perhaps the most disturbing story you’ll read all day, Hank Berrien of The Daily Wire writes: “A British trust that supervises numerous hospitals issued a letter claiming that milk produced by biological men (with the aid of ingested hormones) is as good for babies as breast milk from their mothers. Dr. Rachael James, the medical director of the University of Sussex Hospitals NHS Trust (USHT) trust—which was the first British trust to use terms such as ‘chestfeeding’ and ‘birthing parent’¸ wrote a letter last August to an organization called Children of Transitioners in which she claimed that ‘the term human milk (which she called the ‘ideal food for infants’) is meant to be neutral and is not gender-biased.’” You can read the full article here: https://www.dailywire.com/news/this-is-sick-british-hospitals-say-milk-from-trans-men-equal-to-mothers-breast-milk-for-babies
