Summary

The Rich Zeoli Show- Full Episode (10/23/2024): 3:05pm- On Tuesday, The Atlantic published a piece written by Editor-in-Chief Jeffrey Goldberg which alleges that Donald Trump once praised Nazi generals for their loyalty and he demeaned fallen American soldier Vanessa Guillen—refusing to pay $60,000 for her funeral. On Wednesday, Guillen’s sister—Mayra Guillen—responded to Goldberg’s claims via her X account: “Wow. I don’t appreciate how you are exploiting my sister’s death for politics—hurtful & disrespectful to the important changes she made for service members. President Donald Trump did nothing but show respect to my family & Vanessa. In fact, I voted for President Trump today.” 3:30pm- Michael Whatley—Chairman of the Republican National Committee—joins The Rich Zeoli Show to comment on Donald Trump’s unforgettable weekend shift at a Pennsylvania-based McDonald’s drive thru and Kamala Harris’s bizarre decision to take a day off from campaigning just two weeks before the election. 4:00pm- Former President Donald Trump participates in a faith-focused town hall event with Lt. Governor Burt Jones in Georgia. While taking questions from the audience, Trump emphasized his support for Israel. 4:20pm- Matthew Whitaker—Former Acting United States Attorney General & currently a Senior Advisor for the American First Policy Institute (AFPI)—joins The Rich Zeoli Show to talk about his bus tour throughout Pennsylvania on behalf of the Trump campaign. Whitaker also reacts to President Joe Biden calling for Donald Trump to be locked up. 4:40pm- Andrew C. McCarthy—Senior fellow at National Review, former Assistant United States Attorney for the Southern District of New York, & author of “Ball of Collusion: The Plot to Rig an Election and Destroy a Presidency”—joins The Rich Zeoli Show to discuss his latest National Review article, “Nathan Wade’s Lawfare Amnesia.” You can read the full article here: https://www.nationalreview.com/2024/10/nathan-wades-lawfare-amnesia/ 5:00pm- On Tuesday, The Atlantic published a piece written by Editor-in-Chief Jeffrey Goldberg which alleges that Donald Trump once praised Nazi generals for their loyalty and he demeaned fallen American soldier Vanessa Guillen—refusing to pay $60,000 for her funeral. On Wednesday, Guillen’s sister—Mayra Guillen—responded to Goldberg’s claims via her X account: “Wow. I don’t appreciate how you are exploiting my sister’s death for politics—hurtful & disrespectful to the important changes she made for service members. President Donald Trump did nothing but show respect to my family & Vanessa. In fact, I voted for President Trump today.” 5:15pm- 5:15pm- On Wednesday, Vice President Kamala Harris held a press briefing addressing the allegations made against Donald Trump by Jeffrey Goldberg of The Atlantic—treating the claims as fact. However, former U.S Secretary of Defense Mark Esper—who is no fan of Trump—appeared on CNN and stated that the allegations made by Goldberg are false. Rich notes that Laurene Powell Jobs (widow of Steve Jobs) owns The Atlantic. She’s also a longtime friend of Harris—having donated money to her campaigns dating back to 2003 when Harris ran for San Francisco District Attorney. In September 2020, Goldberg baselessly claimed that Trump called dead U.S. soldiers “losers” and “sucker.” Is The Atlantic using the same attack strategy they used during the last election cycle? 5:40pm- During a Trump campaign event on Tuesday, former Congresswoman Tulsi Gabbard—who served in the House of Representatives as a Democrat—announced that she was joining the Republican Party. 5:50pm- MSNBC’s Alex Wagner spoke with Philadelphia-based voters—and they’re voting for Donald Trump! 6:05pm- MSNBC’s Alex Wagner spoke with Philadelphia-based voters—and they’re voting for Donald Trump!
