Why we should abolish the FCC + Hillary cheers free speech crackdown + How to fix Philly's slavery exhibit

Rich Zeoli breaks down why Stephen Colbert’s “equal time” freakout is pure theater and why CBS attorneys — not the FCC — are driving the whole mess. We lay out how Colbert uses the James Tallarico interview as a publicity stunt to funnel viewers to YouTube, while Tallarico plays the victim and rakes in millions. Zeoli also explains why you can hate Colbert and still think the equal-time rule is outdated — and why keeping the FCC around is a gift to Democrats who want a bigger speech-regulation hammer.

We also get into the long game: Rich warns that the same political crowd that pushed censorship pressure during COVID-era debates wants regulators to reach far past broadcast TV. Zeoli plays clips and reacts to the talking points behind speech control, including Hillary Clinton praising Europe’s approach and the broader push to police what people say on major platforms. We connect it to how corporate lawyers behave, how fear becomes policy, and why abolishing the FCC now is the cleanest way to stop a future crackdown.

Then we pivot into the rest of the chaos: Rich reacts to Greg Gutfeld’s comments, Lawrence Jones’s argument about mental health and firearm forms, and Pramila Jayapal’s new “Trans Bill of Rights” push. Zeoli also has fun with the media’s “racist” label game, a too-perfect Don Lemon clip, and a shockingly slick computer-made movie trailer that looks like it came straight from Hollywood. We close with a wild Philadelphia segment — the mayor dodges the sanctuary city question in real time, and Rich pitches a brutally simple idea for the Washington’s House exhibit that would drive the local political class up a wall.

Obama cuts off the 2028 field at the knees, Pelosi refuses to go in on Gavin, PLUS Trump responds on Munich and there is a secret attack on the 2nd Amendment. 

Rich Zeoli opens by arguing the Democrats don’t run a real grassroots nomination at all—superdelegates and party power brokers do—and that’s why the party keeps shutting down insurgent candidates year after year. We lay out how Biden in 2016, Bernie in 2016 and 2020, and even Kamala’s path all fit the same template: the decision gets made first, the “process” comes later.

Zeoli then turns to why Gavin Newsom’s 2028 “inevitable” storyline starts wobbling fast, pointing to Barack Obama’s public criticism of California’s homelessness approach and why that’s a brutal hit on Newsom’s core record. Rich also plays Nancy Pelosi praising Newsom while still hedging with “a great bench,” and we riff on Newsom’s latest third-term Trump talk—plus the merch-and-hats logic that’s being used to whip people up.

We shift to the overseas clips that light the match: Trump blasting Newsom and AOC as embarrassing on the world stage, and AOC’s Taiwan answer becoming the kind of footage opponents replay forever. From there, we move into the political aftershocks: Pelosi attacking the SAVE Act and voter ID, an old Schumer clip surfacing that cuts against today’s Democratic messaging, and why the fight over elections is only getting louder.

Then Rich gets into the Epstein spiral—Hillary Clinton distancing herself, Bill Maher walking back years of mockery, and how this story is turning into a career-destroyer even for people accused of nothing. We also hit a separate alarm bell: concerns about federal firearms transaction records being digitized into a massive searchable system, and why lawmakers are demanding answers.

To close it out, we play the viral street-level chaos: an anti-ICE confrontation in Minnesota, protest stunts in big-box stores, a bizarre “chicken funeral” scene, and a sharp exchange in a Minnesota hearing focused on fraud and welfare stats. And yes—we even wrap with an Italian phrase of the day.

00:00 — Newsom & AOC “vacation” fallout and the superdelegate machine
01:01 — 2016 and 2020: how the party blocks Biden and Bernie
01:56 — GOP primaries vs. Democratic control of the nomination
03:38 — The Gavin Newsom “puff piece” problem vs. the California record
05:20 — Obama criticizes homelessness policy and why it hits Newsom hardest

Rich Zeoli breaks down the 2028 Democratic 'auditions' in Munich featuring AOC, Gavin Newsom, and Gretchen Whitmer. Plus, Al Gore’s plan to ban algorithms and the AI Tom Cruise clip everyone is talking about

In this episode:

The Munich Beauty Pageant: AOC, Gavin Newsom, and Gretchen Whitmer hit the world stage to audition for 2028. We dissect AOC’s viral non-answer on Taiwan and why Newsom’s habit of trashing the U.S. while praising China’s EV machine is a massive red flag for American supply chains.

The "Trump-Derangement" Loop: Rosie O’Donnell is still fixated, this time from abroad. What does her latest spiral say about the media’s inability to move on?

The War on Speech: Al Gore wants to "ban" social media algorithms. We explain why this is less about safety and more about a desperate grab for narrative control.

AI vs. Hollywood: Between "bullying" bots and a terrifyingly realistic AI-generated brawl between Tom Cruise and Brad Pitt, the tech panic has reached a boiling point. Plus, we look at the privacy win involving doorbell cameras and law enforcement surveillance.

The Epstein Shadow: Why "Pizzagate" talk and Epstein document chatter refuse to leave the mainstream conversation despite disputed evidence.

Zeoli opens by bringing more great news! President Trump says you'll save $2400 now that he has scrapped Obama's disastrous climate change rules. And of course, Obama is screaming that the world is going to be destroyed. The left is really nervous though because 19 Attorneys General are now calling for investigations into green energy scams that cost taxpayers billions if not trillions of dollars. Many of these groups are foreign NGO's backed by you guessed it, the Chinese Communist Party. 

There used to be a saying, politics ends at the water's edge. Don't tell that to Gavin Newsom's greasy hair or AOC as they go to Munich to trash America, trash Trump and declare the need for a wealth tax. They are clearly running for president and seeing this as their chance to grandstand on the world stage. Speaking of presidential candidates, Pennsylvania Governor Josh Shapiro comes out against The Save Act and his excuse his ridiculous. But he's a democrat and worried about his dead constituents in Philadelphia not being able to vote. 

Daniel Turner, Founder and Executive Director of Power the Future joins Rich to discuss the repeal of Obama's climate rules and what it means for our wallets. Obama did this without any Congressional authorization but it's bigger than that. It's all about money for democrats from green energy groups. 

It's a Friday show with lots of great news including how McDonald's is getting in on the Make America Healthy Again movement by offering more protein. Plus, NBC News apologizes for calling a woman...a woman. Make sure you subscribe and tell your friends.

Rich Zeoli opens with the EPA move led by Lee Zeldin and President Donald Trump that wipes out major emissions-era rules—plus the best part: the auto stop-start feature that kills your A/C at red lights. That madness is going to end and so are the ridiculous rules around emissions standards. We dig into why the electric vehicle push is getting tossed, what it means for drivers, and why Zeoli says the mandates turned car lots into graveyards for vehicles people didn’t want.

Then we hit voter ID. We walk through the SAVE Act passing the House and the predictable meltdown from Democrats, while Barack Obama urges the Senate to block it—despite footage circulating of Obama showing ID to vote for… Barack Obama. Obama is a hypocrite because he never had problems with Americans using ID's to visit him at the White House, travel, or exercise their second amendment rights. 

From there, we pivot to Capitol Hill heat: Pam Bondi gets pressed on Jeffrey Epstein and election integrity, and we talk through why the Epstein situation is such a mess. Nancy Mace promises we will soon know names but will we really? Zeoli has long said the truth about Epstein will never come out because he was most likely an intelligence asset and there are too many powerful nations, not just people, that want the truth covered up. 

We also get into the 2028 audition circuit: Gavin Newsom’s latest cringe moment as his wife jumps into a press event to the lecture the media. The media’s never-ending effort to polish Newsom’s image—right down to gushing coverage of his fake high-speed rail train to nowhere. Then we take the fast train to the East Coast where Governor Mikie Sherrill signs executive orders to block cooperation with ICE. She's clearly bored with being Governor and ready to run for President. 

But today is a great day for less government as Trump rolls back the EPA and democrats show that whether it's voter id or working with ICE, they will fight Trump at every turn whether it's popular with the public or not. It's all about the crazy base. 

00:00 Trump Ends EPA Madness Once and For All 
00:59 Why auto stop-start drives everyone nuts
03:32 SAVE Act passes House and the Dems vow to block it in the Senate 
05:18 Obama urges Senate to block it; clip of him showing ID resurfaces
16:05 New Jersey “dead voters” jokes and old-school machine politics
18:45 Epstein talk and why Zeoli thinks the full story stays hidden
25:46 Gavin Newsom's Beta Male Moment
33:57 Media gushes over California high-speed rail “progress”
38:30 Mikie Sherrill, ICE restrictions, and the Gateway Tunnel fight
53:18 Democrats cater to the primary base and that base is nuts 
56:05 Chuck Schumer’s low energy chant 
57:59 Today is a win for less government

Rich Zeoli starts off examining the ICE hearing chaos. The left loves being judgmental and being the "good" person and deciding who is or isn't based on the cause du jour. Have you worn your Anti-Ice pin today? This is where a Democrat member of Congress goes straight for afterlife judgment and accuses ICE of routinely killing people. We unpack why the wording is the whole point. Rich ties it back to the larger habit on the left of moral lecturing—who’s “good,” who’s “bad,” and how their moralizing keeps hurting them electorally.

Then it's the fight over "The SAVE Act" and the newest claim that voter ID is somehow anti-woman. Rich points out the polling reality and the way the talking points keep shifting when the old accusations don’t land. The fact is, Voter ID is popular with literally everyone and democrats arguing that it's racist and sexist is simply ridiculous. 

From there, we get into Ring’s Super Bowl commercial about lost pets and ask the question...is all of this surveillance a good idea? Rich examines their ties to big government and a puff piece TV interview where the tough questions disappear the second the founder says the C word. Plus a savage spoof ad that nails what people are actually worried about. 

But if you have done nothing wrong, you have nothing to fear, right? Wrong! How many times have we seen government weaponized against us but these big tech companies brush aside these privacy concerns like we're all idiots as they casually turn data over to government without even a warrant. 

Remember how the Biden DOJ once said MAGA extremists were the greatest threat to national security and people were thrown in jail for not following covid protocols? These sypbells give government another tool to track us all in the name of...finding lost pets. 

Finally, Zeoli gets into the Gateway Rail Tunnel funding brawl where grandstanding politicians like Senators Chuck Schumer and Cory Booker join Governor Mikie Sherrill to blast President Trump over naming rights-because fighting Trump IS the point. It's never about compromise. They don't actually want to see this project move forward, they want to scream about MAGA and be the resistance. 

00:00 Dems ICE rhetoric reaches new absurdity 
00:59 Privacy fears and the day’s political pileup
04:29 The left’s moral lecturing and why voters hate it
08:41 Zeoli’s boat mess + the mask scolding story
11:53 ICE hearing flashpoint: “Do you think you’re going to hell?”
14:26 Accusing ICE agents of genocide 
18:04 SAVE Act attack line: It's racist AND sexist 
21:29 CNN numbers: broad support for voter ID
23:12 Doorbell cams and privacy concerns 
40:41 Pandemic scenario: cams used to police movement
50:20 Gateway Tunnel funding fight is pure theater

Rich Zeoli comes out firing on Trump’s outstanding decision to end greenhouse-gas rules and why it could mean cheaper energy, a weaker EPA, and the end to climate-litigation scam. We lay out how the Obama-era “endangerment finding” became the legal foundation for sweeping regulations and government money grabs, and why Zeoli thinks EPA Administrator Lee Zeldin’s move is the biggest deregulation play yet — with ripple effects for everything from your car to national security. Make no mistake, this is a huge win for sanity and a huge loss to the administrative state. 

We also get into the Democrats’ latest meltdown over ICE, with members of Congress tossing around “KKK,” “slave patrol,” and “Gestapo” comparisons in hearings. Rich and the crew walk through the most unhinged lines, why it’s all about viral clips, and what happens when the same people screaming about “paramilitary forces” are literally sitting in the oversight chair doing… oversight.

Then we connect the dots: Big Tobacco-style lawsuits now aimed at social media. We talk about the court fights portraying social media platforms as “digital casinos,” and how “protecting kids” turns into a backdoor push for government control of speech and algorithms. Zeoli argues parents still matter, the panic is being weaponized, and the endgame is the same: more government control. All in the name of the children. 

Think about all of the Biden Administration's efforts to police speech. When the government steps in to "protect" your kids from social media, it's really about gaining greater control over everyone's online speech. Think COVID disinformation, the Hunter Biden laptop, and hate speech censorship. Don't fall for the idea this is about protecting kids. 

From there, we hit the Epstein angle and the absolute vindication of Donald Trump — including new reporting that Trump contacted Palm Beach law enforcement back in 2006 and allegedly urged them to look hard at Ghislaine Maxwell. So was Trump setting up the democrats the entire time to pursue the Epstein case knowing he would be vindicated? Is this why the Biden Justice Department did nothing for 4 years? 

Finally, Elizabeth Warren's voter ID conspiracy theory doesn't survive five seconds of basic reality and more crazy Trump haters to ruin your shopping experience. 

00:00 — Trump ends greenhouse gas rules and “climate madness”
02:37 — Social media lawsuits are really about ending free speech
03:31 — A massive win for deregulation 
08:11 — Climate scams have made life more expensive and dangerous 
10:58 — Big Tobacco parallels: climate lawsuits and corporate punishment
14:35 — Social media lawsuits are a wolf in sheep's clothing 
19:06 — META wants more speech police 
23:26 — Utopia-by-algorithm 
30:00 — Wacky Dems Desperate to Go Viral 
40:11 — Trump's total vindication on Jeffrey Epstein 
49:04 — RFK Jr. Says no more Nanny State
55:23 — Elizabeth Warren's Voter ID Conspiracy Theory

Rich Zeoli opens the show by torching the idea that today’s Democrat Party is “moderate,” using New Jersey’s special primary as the proof point. Bernie Sanders and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez backed a far left progressive who won a special election to fill a Congressional seat. Her platform: fight the oligarchy, fight ICE, fight Trump. Fighting Trump IS the point these days for Democrats. Not compromise. Not cooperation. Fighting and obstruction. That's how they think they'll win in 2028.

Whether it's New Jersey Governor Mikie Sherrill suing Trump and vowing to block ICE or Pennsylvania Governor Josh Shapiro vowing to fight an ICE detention facility in his state, these so called "moderate" democrats are all about appealing to their extremist base. 

Rich then plays his latest Fox News segment from America’s Newsroom and we talk about the on-air clash with a Democrat guest insisting that progressive victories are outliers. We also get the behind-the-scenes hallway moment, where the guest admits he won’t go on MSNBC or certain CNN shows because he’s “not far left enough”—which says plenty about where the party’s center of gravity sits.

We pivot to the ICE-vs-everyone theatre: protests, corporate pressure campaigns, and the “boycott the yoga studio” vibe that turns politics into performance. Zeoli’s point is simple—this stuff isn’t fringe anymore, it’s mainstream behavior inside the coalition, and it keeps getting rewarded. And no, it's not just an excuse for Zeoli to play a clip of women in yoga pants. 

Even as polls show overwhelming support for voter ID laws, democrats continue to block The Save Act, arguing it's racist and sexist but not being able to actually explain why. Zeoli caps it with Kamala Harris’s famous word salad: “prove who you are… but not like that”  and we have some fun with how absurd that logic sounds when you apply it anywhere else.

If you haven't had enough cringe in your day, how about Governor Mikie Sherrill giving a weather report in Spanish. It's no bueno. She also thinks it's part of her job...to be a meteorologist? It's the nanny state pandering that the left loves and drives rationale adults insane. But what you may have forgotten is that there was a time when Joe Biden and Chris Matthews' both agreed everyone needed to speak English to unite our country. Now we have Bad Bunny doing an entire halftime show in Spanish. 

Lastly, have you noticed how the Super Bowl commercials have become either all AI or all big name celebrities?

Rich Zeoli opens by calling out democrats for being stolen election conspiracy theorists. From Chuck Schumer calling Voter ID Jim Crow 2.0 to Senator Ed Markey saying Trump is going to steal voting machines to Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries saying Trump is going to steal ballots, democrats sound like unhinged lunatics. Even Stephen A. Smith and Bill Maher are pushing back on their claims that The Save Act is racist. But wait, there more. They also say voter ID laws are sexist. Is this all a secret plan to keep women from voting? Apparently, it's just about overturning the 19th Amendment! What an idiotic thing for democrats say when Republicans tend to do very well with married women and Donald Trump even won married female voters in 2024. 

Also, are Trump supporters MAGA Minions or MAGA sycophants? Democrats can't seem to keep their insults consistent. 

Dads matter! A new study shows that Dad being present in their kids lives matters more than we realized and Zeoli gets personal about being more present with his three kids. We need to do more to boost fatherhood in America and make sure Dads are involved in their kids lives. But if you are involved in your kids lives you probably don't have time to protect ICE by popping a squat in Target. 

Our friends at Surge Philly released a viral Target protest video showing unhinged leftists and it makes sense why more people are leaving blue states for red states when you hear democrat members of Congress from New Jersey call for the abolishment of ICE. 

We close with a grab bag that still lands heavy: the “Ribbon of Death” Olympic downhill course, a Super Bowl pick framed by a pope/Seahawks coincidence, and the newest wrinkle in the Jeffrey Epstein case as CBS reports conflicting interpretations of surveillance footage. Was it just sheets or a person near Epstein's cell before his death? 

All of these conspiracies keep coming true! Maher and Stephen A. Smith even go so far as to say the public owes apologies to...QAnon? 

And once again the Governor New Jersey reminds us she's already bored of being Governor and is running for President.

Rich Zeoli hops into another liberal meltdown: no, President Trump is not going to run for a 3rd term but he loves to flirt with the idea because it causes liberals and the media to lose their minds. 71% of Democrats like the idea of having to show ID to vote but that doesn't stop Chuck Schumer from calling it Jim Crowe 2.0. But when you ask actual black Americans about voter ID laws, turns out they don't think it is racist at all. It is racist, however, to suggest they can't get ID. But all of this is just a secret plot for Trump to seize election machines, at least according to the biggest dummy in  the US Senate, Richard Blumenthal. 

Then, Rich turns to a Pennsylvania school district bombshell: a teacher is caught on audio telling students Trump is a pedophile and reading graphic, unverified allegations as “current events.” A father reaches out, the clip spreads, and we talk about how twisted it is to inject anonymous internet claims into a classroom—especially with kids who trust the adult in the room.

Zeoli shifts again to the economic fear machine: Bernie Sanders warning about massive job losses from AI and pushing ideas like a “robot tax.” We connect it to a Wall Street Journal argument that AI is being used the same way climate fear has been used—more control, more regulation, more taxes—while not actually protecting workers. And because this is our show, we still make time for the latest absurdity: McDonald’s “McNugget caviar” kits, the countdown clock, and the kind of Valentine’s gift that might earn you a slap.

Finally, we hit the paid-protest and NGO angle—Soros-linked funding, activist roadblocks, and Senator Eric Schmidt grilling a Public Citizen witness on how everything becomes “racist” on command. We close out with Zeoli torching New Jersey politics as “Mikey Sherrill” plays national ambitions while posturing over the Gateway Tunnel fight.
