The Rich Zeoli Show- Hour 3:

• Mark Houck—Candidate for U.S. Congress representing Pennsylvania’s 1st District—joins The Rich Zeoli Show to react to six pro-life supporters protesting peacefully outside of an abortion clinic in Tennessee who now face 11 years in prison. Houck is a pro-life father who was wrongfully charged with violating the Freedom of Access to Clinic Entrances (FACE) Act after protesting outside of an abortion clinic—and he was arrested at his home during an FBI raid that consisted of nearly two-dozen heavily armed agents. The egregious, authoritarian-style arrest understandably left his wife and children horrified. A Pennsylvania jury ultimately found Houck not guilty.

• Massachusetts Governor Maura Healey (D) announced that she is converting state recreational centers to places of shelter to house migrants who have entered the United States unlawfully.
• While speaking with Maria Bartiromo on Fox News, Senator Ron Johnson (R-WI) accused Democrats—specifically Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) and President Joe Biden—and Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) of being more concerned about Ukraine aid than securing the U.S. Southern border.
• The Florida House of Representatives has passed legislation that would ban minors under the age of 16 from accessing social media. In response, Governor Ron DeSantis suggested he may veto the bill should it arrive at his desk, explaining: “To say that someone that is 15 just cannot have [access to social media] no matter what, even if the parent consents, that may create some legal issues.” You can read more here: https://www.tallahassee.com/story/news/politics/2024/01/26/desantis-concerned-over-breadth-of-house-social-media-legislation/72368316007/
• On Wednesday, Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg testified before the Senate Judiciary Committee. During Sen. Lindsey Graham’s (R-SC) opening statement, he accused Zuckerberg of having blood on his hands—emphatically stating “you have a product that is killing people” as people in attendance applauded. Zuckerberg was also notably grilled by Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) and Sen. Josh Hawley (R-MO). Could strict regulations on social media be coming via new legislation? Though there is clearly bipartisan support for legislation, should the government be in the business of regulating speech online?
• Earlier this week, Gisele Fetterman—wife of Senator John Fetterman (D-PA)—deleted her social media accounts. Though, she has since reactivated her X account after the publication of reports noting her social media deletion.
