The Rich Zeoli Show- Hour 4:

6:05pm- On Wednesday, the Senate Judiciary Committee held a confirmation hearing for former Florida Attorney General Pam Bondi who has been nominated to serve as U.S. Attorney General in the incoming Trump Administration. During the hearing, Bondi butted heads with Democratic Senators Mazie Hirono, Sheldon Whitehouse, Alex Padilla, and Richard Blumenthal—but, as Rich notes, Bondi got the better of every-single exchange.

6:30pm- Monologue Replay: On Tuesday, Secretary of Defense nominee Pete Hegseth testified before the Senate Armed Services Committee. At one point, Hegseth outlined his plan to eradicate “woke” ideology from the U.S. military—vowing to prioritize combat preparation and competency. Rich notes that President-elect Donald Trump has a unique opportunity to combat the out-of-control growth of the federal government—but his job will be made easier if he has his preferred cabinet.
