Summary

The Rich Zeoli Show- Hour 1: 3:05pm- During a press briefing on Wednesday, Deputy Defense Press Secretary Sabrina Singh denied Rep. Jeff Van Drew’s claims that the drones flying over New Jersey are of Iranian origin—or that they are confirmed to be adversarial. Though, she was unable to explain where the drones are from or what purpose they serve. 3:10pm- On Thursday, White House National Security Communications Advisor John Kirby told the press: “our investigation was unable to corroborate any of the reports about the mysterious drone sightings.” 3:20pm- Time Magazine has picked their “Person of the Year”—Donald Trump. Rich notes that Trump has had the greatest political comeback in American history. 3:30pm- Biden Races To Sell Off Border Wall Parts Before Trump Takes Office. James Lalino of The Daily Wire reports: “The Biden administration is using its final weeks to haul a massive amount of border wall materials away from the southern border to be sold off in a government auction, an apparent effort to hinder President-elect Donald Trump’s effort to secure the border.” Some sections of the wall are going for as little as $5.00! Is there anything Congress can do to stop this? You can read the full report here: https://www.dailywire.com/news/exclusive-biden-races-to-sell-off-border-wall-parts-before-trump-takes-office 3:40pm- State Senator Doug Steinhardt—State Senator for New Jersey's 23rd Legislative District—joins The Rich Zeoli Show to recap a Homeland Security briefing he attended yesterday where federal officials were unable to offer any clarity regarding the mysterious drones flying over New Jersey at night. He also reacts to White House National Security Communications Advisor John Kirby dismissing the seriousness of the drones. State Sen. Steinhardt explains that, so far, he has witnessed a “weak and feckless response by the Biden Administration.”
