The Rich Zeoli Show- Full Episode (08/12/2024):

3:05pm- Green Energy Costs Automakers 2,450 Jobs: The Wall Street Journal Editorial Board writes, “Stellantis is showing what the real green-energy transition looks like: On Friday the auto maker announced plans to lay off 2,450 workers in Michigan as it ramps up electric-vehicle production…Car makers are struggling to sell higher-priced cars as consumers pull back after three years of inflation. At the same time, the rich labor agreement that Stellantis, Ford and GM struck last autumn with the United Auto Workers is raising costs. The companies need healthy profits from gas-powered trucks to subsidize their money-losing EV production. Hence Stellantis’s scramble to slash costs. The company last month announced buyouts for salaried workers in the U.S. On Friday it said it will lay off as many as 2,450 production workers in Warren, Mich., where it produces its classic Ram 1500 pickup, as it rolls out a new electric model. Workers can send a thank you card to UAW president Shawn Fain.” You can read the full article here: https://www.wsj.com/opinion/the-real-green-energy-transition-auto-maker-layoffs-stellantis-6fea81f9?mod=opinion_lead_pos2

3:15pm- Copyin Kamala or CopyCat Kamala: During a recent campaign rally in Las Vegas, Nevada Democrat presidential nominee Kamala Harris advocated for a new policy which would end taxes on tips. Doesn’t that sound familiar? Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump has been openly campaigning on a “No Tax On Tips” pledge for months. Also worth noting, Harris was the tie-breaking vote on the Inflation Reduction Act—which expanded the size of the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) and consequently its ability to crackdown on unpaid tips.

3:40pm- While speaking with Jonathan Karl on ABC’s This Week, Republican vice-presidential candidate J.D. Vance said of Kamala Harris’s failed attempt to crackdown on unlawful migration: "We have a wide-open Southern border because our border czar actually set a lot of open border policies."

4:05pm- NIH Violated First Amendment, Deleted “Animal Testing”: Emma Camp of Reason.com writes: “The National Institutes of Health (NIH) violated the First Amendment rights of animal rights activists whose social media comments were deleted by the agency, a federal appeals court ruled last week. The agency had been deleting all comments on its Facebook and Instagram pages that contained certain keywords related to criticism of the agency's use of animal testing. Comments containing words like animal, testing, and cruel were singled out for deletion as part of a broader policy of deleting ‘off-topic’ comments.” You can read the full article here: https://reason.com/2024/08/06/the-nih-deleted-comments-criticizing-animal-testing-a-federal-court-says-that-violates-the-first-amendment/

4:30pm- Biden Had Health Scare Prior to Dropping Out of Race: Managing Editor Noor Ibrahim of The Daily Beast writes: “Officers from the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department rushed to clear roads and secure the perimeter of a hospital that had been placed on standby to treat President Joe Biden for a medical issue last month, according to radio transmission recordings obtained by the Daily Beast. It remains unclear what exactly the undisclosed medical issue was, though the White House announced later that day he had been diagnosed with COVID-19…The radio transmissions were broadcast on July 17, after the president abruptly canceled a speaking engagement on a campaign trip in Las Vegas, Nevada, where he was set to address Hispanic voters at the UnidosUS event.” You can read the full report here:  https://www.thedailybeast.com/listen-vegas-cops-scramble-to-secure-hospital-for-biden-health-scare?ref=author

5:05pm- While speaking with CBS News chief election correspondent Robert Costa, President Joe Biden briefly mentioned Nancy Pelosi by name when asked about dropping out of the 2024 presidential race. Biden quickly caught himself and pivoted. But as Rich notes, we all know Pelosi (along with Barack Obama, Chuck Schumer, and former Obama Administration officials) played a crucial role in removing Biden from the top of the Democrat Party’s 2024 ticket.

5:20pm- During an interview with Jen Psaki, former Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi called Joe Biden one of the greatest presidents ever—but that he was not on a path toward victory in 2024, suggesting the switch from Biden to Kamala Harris was entirely about winning.

5:30pm- During his interview with CBS News chief election correspondent Robert Costa, President Joe Biden called Donald Trump a “genuine danger to American security.” Shouldn’t Biden moderate the rhetoric considering Trump was nearly assassinated less than a month ago?

5:40pm- Minnesota Bartender Says Walz’s COVID Policies Bankrupted Her Business: Steven Vago and Chris Nesi of The New York Post report: “A former Minnesota bar owner who now commutes two hours a day to sling suds in neighboring Wisconsin said Gov. Tim Walz’s restrictive pandemic-era lockdowns in the state ‘decimated’ local businesses—and caused financial ruin for those who stood up for their livelihoods. ‘I think he’s an evil man who overstepped his role as the governor. He took small businesses and ripped them up. He destroyed us,’ Lisa Zarza, 52, told The Post.” You can read the full article here: https://nypost.com/2024/08/11/us-news/minnesota-bar-owner-says-evil-tim-walz-forced-her-into-bankruptcy-with-covid-closures/

6:05pm- Copyin Kamala or CopyCat Kamala: During a recent campaign rally in Las Vegas, Nevada Democrat presidential nominee Kamala Harris advocated for a new policy which would end taxes on tips. Doesn’t that sound familiar? Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump has been openly campaigning on a “No Tax On Tips” pledge for months. Also worth noting, Harris was the tie-breaking vote on the Inflation Reduction Act—which expanded the size of the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) and consequently its ability to crackdown on unpaid tips.

6:10pm- According to reports, at her recent rally in Arizona, Kamala Harris required attendees to provide identification before being permitted to enter the event. Ironically, in the past, Harris has suggested voter ID laws are racist.

6:15pm- Director of Public Prosecutions of England and Wales Stephen Parkinson explained that the United Kingdom will criminally punish citizens that repost messages the government deems “hateful.” He also explained that he will appropriate “dedicated police officers” to monitor social media. Similarly, UK Police Commissioner Mark Rowley has threatened to extradite and imprison American citizens over online posts. With Democrat vice-presidential nominee Tim Walz having stated that the First Amendment shouldn’t extend to speech the government considers “misinformation” or “hate speech,” could similar laws restricting speech be part of the Harris-Walz campaign’s platform?

6:30pm- Taylor Riggs—co-anchor of Fox Business’s The Big Money Show—joins The Rich Zeoli Show to discuss Bidenomics and the impact it has had on the U.S. economy. Plus, did Kamala Harris really just steal Donald Trump’s “No Tax On Tips” policy?

6:40pm- Congressman Ryan Zinke—Representative for Montana’s 1st Congressional District—joins The Rich Zeoli Show to discuss Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump’s recent campaign rally in Montana.
