The Rich Zeoli Show- Hour 4:

6:05pm- On Tuesday, for the eighth time, Senate Democrats voted against moving forward with a House-passed bill to fund the government and end the ongoing shutdown. Only John Fetterman, Catherine Cortez Masto, and Angus King broke from their party. The Senate needs 60 votes to advance the bill.

6:15pm- On Wednesday night, CNN held a town hall focusing on the government shutdown where host Kaitlan Collins asked Rep. Alexandria Ocasio Cortez if she wanted to provide migrants residing in the U.S. unlawfully with free healthcare. Notably, AOC refused to answer the question.

6:20pm- Is Katy Perry dating former Canadian Prime Minister (and definitively NOT the son of Fidel Castro) Justin Trudeau?

6:30pm- Democrat Gubernatorial Nominees See Their Lead Narrow: Polling shows the race between Ciattarelli and Sherrill is, as of now, anyone’s race. Virginia Democrat Abigail Spanberger has seen her massive lead over Republican Winsome Earle-Sears—which was at one point estimated to be as much as 17-points in May—now sits at 5 to 8-points, according to polling averages.

6:40pm- A listener asks if Rich is voting for Ciattarelli…

6:50pm- Bette Midler performed the worst, most awkward song in the history of television while appearing as a guest on Stephen Colbert’s late-night show. PLUS, Kathy Griffin is back—and she’s as unfunny as ever.
