The Rich Zeoli Show- Hour 1:

3:05pm- A jury has found Ryan Routh guilty of attempting to assassinate Donald Trump at his golf course in Palm Springs, Florida in 2024. Routh was also found guilty of several firearm violations and of assaulting a federal law enforcement officer. Routh, who made the unusual decision of representing himself in court, attempted to stab himself after hearing the jury’s verdict.

3:30pm- While appearing on MSNBC with Rachel Maddow, former Vice President Kamala Harris was asked to clarify an excerpt from her new book, “107 Days,” in which claims she chose not to select Pete Buttigieg as her 2024 running mate because he is gay. Harris denied the allegation—but then backtracked and bizarrely added that she couldn’t pick Buttigieg since his sexual orientation posed a campaign “risk.”

3:35pm- While promoting her book on The View, Harris said of her 2024 presidential campaign: “I didn’t fully appreciate how much people wanted to know there was a difference between me and President Biden. I thought it was obvious.” However, in October 2024, Harris told The View, “there is not a thing that comes to mind” when asked what she would do differently than Joe Biden.

3:40pm- Kimmel is Back: Last week, ABC/Disney indefinitely suspended “Jimmy Kimmel Live”—following Kimmel’s comments on the killing of Charlie Kirk. The late-night host shamefully accused Republicans of using the death to “score political points.” While the network’s move appeared to be a result of Kimmel’s comments coupled with poor ratings, FCC Chairman Brendan Carr suggested his department could potentially investigate ABC/Disney over Kimmel’s vitriolic remarks—muddying the waters. Many expressed concern that Carr’s warning amounted to a First Amendment violation. On Monday, ABC/Disney announced that the suspension had concluded, and Kimmel will be back on-air Tuesday night. However, Nexstar and Sinclair—which operate a combined 60 ABC affiliates—announced they will not air “Jimmy Kimmel Live” despite the suspension’s cessation.
