Summary
The Rich Zeoli Show- Hour 3:
- The Drive at 5: Dr. Wilfred Reilly—Professor of Political Science at Kentucky State University & Author of “Hate Crime Hoax: How the Left is Selling a Fake Race War”—joins The Rich Zeoli Show to discuss an excerpt from Elliot Page’s new book where the actor claims to have been verbally attacked by a “transphobe” while in Los Angeles in 2022.
