The Rich Zeoli Show- Hour 4:

• After meeting with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, Speaker of the House Mike Johnson (R-LA) said Republicans will not support additional money to Ukraine without first resolving the ongoing domestic crisis at the U.S. Southern border—as thousands of migrants enter the country illegally each day. Meanwhile, speaking from the floor of the U.S. Senate, Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY) explained, “borrowing money from China to send it to Ukraine makes no sense. It makes us weaker, not stronger.”
• Is an agreement between Republicans and Democrats to fund Ukraine, Israel, and the U.S. Southern Border right around the corner? Karoun Demirjian of The New York Times reports, “As Zelensky and Biden addressed the public, Senate negotiators claimed to have made progress toward a deal on funding Ukraine’s war while stepping up domestic border security. ‘We made substantive progress,’ Senator Kyrsten Sinema, independent of Arizona, told reporters, after exiting a closed-door meeting with Senate negotiators and Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas, as well as staffers for Senate leaders and the White House. Senator Chris Murphy, Democrat of Connecticut, also told reporters that ‘we made progress’ toward a deal.” You can read more here: https://www.nytimes.com/live/2023/12/12/us/zelensky-biden-visit/601d38d0-782a-5ecf-86a3-62692c831c44?smid=url-share
• While appearing on MSNBC’s Morning Joe, NBC Correspondent Steve Kornacki explained that according to the latest polling available on the Iowa Republican caucus, Donald Trump now leads the field with a massive 51% support.
• George Washington University Law Professor Jonathan Turley accused DOJ Special Counsel Jack Smith of being “obsessed” with prosecuting former President Donald Trump before the 2024 presidential election.
• Despite the Biden team and members of the far-left continually declaring Donald Trump a threat to America, Thomas B. Edsall of The New York Times—breaking down polling from a Democrat advisory group—notes that this line of attack hasn’t been effective. He writes: “Particularly worrisome for Democrats, who plan to demonize Trump as a threat to democracy, are the advantages Trump and Republicans have on opposing extremism (three points), getting beyond the chaos (six points) and protecting the Constitution (eight points).” You can read the editorial here: https://www.nytimes.com/2023/12/06/opinion/biden-campaign-polls.html
