The Rich Zeoli Show- Hour 2:

4:00pm- This week, several conservative commentators were “swatted”—which occurs when someone purposefully deceives an emergency response operator, reporting a serious crime and ultimately causing police units to storm another person’s address. Relatedly, Supreme Court Justice Amy Cooney Barrett’s sister was recently the victim of a bomb threat—with the suspect explicitly citing his disdain for the Justice’s judicial philosophy.

4:10pm- Speaking from the Justice Department in Washington, D.C., President Donald Trump condemned the DOJ’s past weaponization—which he noted targeted him and other individuals deemed to be political rivals by the law enforcement agency. Trump stated, “we must be honest about the lies and abuses that have occurred within these walls. Unfortunately, in recent years, a corrupt group of hacks and radicals within the ranks of the American government obliterated the trust and goodwill built up over generations.”

4:40pm- While speaking with Jake Tapper on CNN, Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio Cortez (D-NY) expressed frustration with Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer’s (D-NY) decision to break the filibuster and allow for the Republican continuing resolution bill to pass, averting a government shutdown. Does AOC plan to primary Schumer in 2028?
