Summary

The Rich Zeoli Show- Full Episode (03/27/2025): 3:05pm- On Thursday, President Donald Trump announced Rep. Elise Stefanik (R-NY) will no longer be the nominee to serve as Ambassador to the United Nations. In a post to Truth Social, Trump revealed he asked Stefanik to remain in Congress—citing the Republican Party’s narrow majority in the House of Representatives and the need for her critical vote to pass conservative policies. Though New York’s 21st Congressional District is reliably red, reports indicate that Governor Kathy Hochul (D-NY) was planning to delay filling the vacancy—despite NY law mandating an election within 90 days. 3:30pm- Corey DeAngelis—Senior Fellow at the American Culture Project & Visiting Fellow at the American Institute for Economic Research—joins The Rich Zeoli Show to discuss the Trump Administration’s pledge to dismantle the Department of Education. DeAngelis explains that President Donald Trump has emphasized Title I programs and IDEA will still be federally funded and will not be touched. The programs provide funding for students in high-poverty areas as well as students with disabilities. Who could possibly be opposed to returning education to the local level—where parents have more control? President of the American Federation of Teachers Randi Weingarten, of course! DeAngelis emphasizes “her power is slipping right through her fingertips” but this is good news for students, parents, and even teachers. “She makes over half a million dollars a year fighting to trap other people’s kids in her failure factories that she likes to call public schools.” DeAngelis is the author of “The Parent Revolution: Rescuing Your Kids from the Radicals Ruining Our Schools.” 3:40pm- Disney Disaster: Disney’s live action remake of the classic film Snow White hit theaters on March 21st. Despite needing to earn a reported $600 million to cover production and marketing costs, the film only grossed $43 million in its opening weekend. Part of the problem, according to reports, is Disney’s unwillingness to put the film’s star, Rachel Zegler, on an extended promotional tour due to her past controversial comments which have included criticisms of the original Snow White story, nasty comments about castmates, and profane remarks about President Donald Trump and his supporters. According to a new report from Variety, one of the film’s producers needed to fly to Zegler and plead with her to stop posting polarizing messages on social media. 4:00pm- Early Thursday morning, the Department of Justice announced the arrest of an alleged leader of the international criminal gang MS-13. He was in the country illegally. Attorney General Pam Bondi stated: “America is safer today because one of the top domestic terrorists in MS-13…is off the streets. This has been an ongoing directive of President Trump. His directive to me when I became Attorney General of the United States was very simple: Keep America safe!” 4:30pm- Cliff Maloney—Citizens Alliance CEO & PA Chase Founder—joins The Rich Zeoli Show to discuss the results of a special election in Lancaster, Pennsylvania. The district was +15 in favor of Donald Trump in November 2024—however, on Tuesday Democrat James Malone defeated Republican Josh Parsons to win a vacated State Senate seat. Republicans will control the PA State Senate 27 to 23 once Malone is sworn into office. PLUS, Maloney reveals he will be working to help Republicans win the 2025 New Jersey gubernatorial race! 4:50pm- Did “remote viewing” lead the CIA to confirm that the Ark of the Covenant is real?!?! Probably not. “Remote viewing” requires paranormal experts to perceive information without using their senses. Rich concludes: this doesn’t sound very legitimate… 5:05pm- Dr. EJ Antoni—Research Fellow in The Heritage Foundation’s Grover M. Hermann Center for the Federal Budget—joins The Rich Zeoli Show to discuss the Trump Administration’s decision to place a 25% tariff on imported automobiles. Dr. Antoni poi ...
