The Rich Zeoli Show- Hour 4:

6:05pm- After signing executive orders from the Oval Office, President Donald Trump took questions from the press—discussing the assassination attempt against him in Butler, PA, potentially extending TikTok’s reprieve from a nationwide ban, daylight saving time, and the astronauts stuck in space.

6:10pm- In a message to the astronauts stranded in space, President Donald Trump said: “we love you and we are coming up to get you.” In an interview earlier this week, astronaut Barry Wilmore seemed to agree with the assessment that then-President Biden left him, and his fellow Boeing Starliner travelers, stranded at the international space station—because allowing Elon Musk’s SpaceX to rescue them last September may have negatively impacted Kamala Harris’s election prospects.

6:30pm- During his confirmation hearing before the Senate Health Committee, Dr. Marty Makary—the Trump Administration’s nominee to serve as Commissioner of the Food and Drug Administration—said “half of our nation’s children are sick” but “we have a generational opportunity in American health care,” vowing to advocate on behalf of healthy diets capable of reversing disturbing trends in health.

6:40pm- Rich notes one of the major shortcomings of the modern food pyramid: it fails to draw a distinction between healthy fats (like those found in avocados, nuts, and olive oil) which are critical for brain function and heart health from unhealthy fats. Matt suggests an updated food pyramid should have his favorite food—McDonald’s—at the base. No one should take his dieting advice.
