The Rich Zeoli Show- Full Show (03/13/2025):
3:05pm- On Thursday, President Donald Trump met with North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) Secretary General Mark Rutte in the White House. The two discussed numerous issues—including negotiating a peace agreement between Russia and Ukraine, China’s global predations, and reciprocal tariffs.
3:10pm- According to research from the Heritage Foundation’s Oversight Project, former President Joe Biden signed dozens of executive orders with an “autopen”—raising questions about the legitimacy of those actions. Did Biden know what he was signing? Earlier this year, Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) revealed that during a closed-door meeting Biden had no recollection of signing an executive order that effectively froze new liquid natural gas export permits. While appearing on the show yesterday, Congressman Scott Perry (R-PA) asked “who was actually making the decisions?” and insisted Congress must investigate. He noted: “it’s not clear” if Biden is “cognitively able to remember” what happened or if he was even aware his signature was being used.
3:20pm- On Tuesday, after meeting with Ukrainian officials in Saudi Arabia, Secretary of State Marco Rubio revealed that Ukraine agreed to terms for an immediate ceasefire with a willingness to enter “immediate negotiations to end this conflict [with Russia] in a way that's enduring and sustainable." On Thursday, during a press conference, Russian President Vladimir Putin said he was open to an agreement—though he insisted there needed to be alterations to the current terms—and that he is expecting to speak with President Trump over the phone in the coming days.

3:40pm- On Tuesday, the House of Representatives passed a continuing resolution to fund the government through September. The CR will now head to the Senate, which will require the support of several Democrats to overcome a 60-vote filibuster threshold. Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY), however, told reporters that Democrats will refuse to support the CR—which could mean the government shuts down on Friday at midnight. But according to Politico, a government shutdown may be in the Trump Administration’s best interest—as the Attorney General and Office of Management of Budget will determine what federal activities are essential based on guidance that dates back to the Carter Administration. This would allow for DOGE to slash the size of government with even greater ease.
3:50pm- Disney Disaster: Disney’s live action remake of the classic film Snow White is set to hit theaters on March 15th—but it’s expected to bomb at the box office, potentially costing Disney hundreds of millions of dollars. Part of the problem, according to reports, is Disney’s unwillingness to put the film’s star, Rachel Zegler, on an extended promotional tour due to her past controversial comments which have included criticisms of the original Snow White story, nasty comments about castmates, and profane remarks about President Donald Trump and his supporters.
4:05pm- Breaking News: The Trump Administration has requested that the Supreme Court review the president’s executive order effectively narrowing “birthright citizenship” to exclude children born in the United States to parents who are undocumented citizens residing in the country illegally. Federal courts in Maryland, Massachusetts, and Washington have paused President Donald Trump’s executive order.
4:15pm- Craziest Clips of the Day: A video clip has gone viral of a Oregon Consumer Advisory Councilmember announcing that she self identifies as a “turtle.” PLUS, a flashback to September 2024 when purple-haired Congresswoman Rosa DeLauro attempted to generate excitement with Gen Z by using popular social media terms like “rizzler” and “skibidi.” Gen Z producer Justin translates the lingo for Rich and Ma ...
