4:05pm- Charlie Savage and Alan Feuer of The New York Times write of oral argument in Trump v. United States: “Although Mr. Trump’s claim of near-absolute immunity was seen as a long shot intended primarily to slow the proceedings, several members of the Republican-appointed majority seemed to indicate that some immunity was needed… Chief Justice John G. Roberts Jr. criticized an appeals court ruling rejecting immunity for Mr. Trump, saying he was concerned that it ‘did not get into a focused consideration of what acts we are talking about or what documents are talking about.’” You can read their full takeaway here: https://www.nytimes.com/live/2024/04/25/us/trump-immunity-supreme-court/supreme-court-trump-immunity-takeaways?smid=url-share

Justice Alito Warns of Consequences for Politically Motivated Prosecution

The Rich Zeoli Show- Full Episode (05/06/2024):

3:05pm- While speaking briefly with the press on Monday prior to entering court in New York City, President Donald Trump said the gag order imposed on him by Judge Juan Merchan is “not fair” and argued that the scope of the gag order infringes upon his constitutional right to free speech. On Monday, Judge Merchan fined Trump $1,000 for violating the gag order and emphasized that continued violations could result in Trump being sent to jail.

3:15pm- On Monday, former Press Secretary—and current MSNBC host—Jen Psaki stated that she did not believe it’s necessary for President Joe Biden to do more press conferences in order to win reelection in 2024.

3:40pm- David Gelman—Defense Attorney & Former Prosecutor—joins The Rich Zeoli Show to discuss his work as a legal surrogate for former President Donald Trump and the Trump 2024 Campaign. Why has Trump been subjected to a gag order while Michael Cohen, for example, has not been?

4:05pm- Isaac Schorr of Mediate reports that talk show host Michael Smerconish has been disinvited from speaking at Dickinson College’s commencement ceremony after students complained about a passage from a book he wrote in 2004. Schorr writes: “In his book, Smerconish argued against a Department of Transportation policy that ‘precluded more than two individuals of any particular ethnicity from being singled out at the same time for secondary screening at airports.’” You can read the full story here: https://www.mediaite.com/news/cnns-michael-smerconish-disinvited-from-college-commencement-over-comments-from-2004/

4:20pm- After leaving court on Monday, Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump revealed that his “hush money” trial may last another 2 to 3 weeks—which will keep him off the campaign trail.

4:40pm- George Leef of National Review writes: “Let’s look at the new California minimum wage law for workers in fast food businesses and see how it has been working out.  Professor Lee Ohanian has done some digging and writes about his findings in [his] piece for Independent Institute. He observes more than 9,500 jobs have already been wiped out, with more expected.” You can read the full article here: https://www.nationalreview.com/corner/californias-minimum-wage-wipes-out-thousands-of-jobs/

4:50pm- Barak Ravid of Axios reports that the Biden Administration “put a hold on a shipment of U.S.-made ammunition to Israel.” Rich notes that Congress explicitly provided $26 billion in aid for Israel in last month’s $95 billion foreign aid bill. Ukraine received assistance immediately—why was Israel forced to wait?

5:00pm- In his Wall Street Journal editorial, Ralph Reed writes about the media’s continued attempts to smear Christians in America. He explains: “House Speaker Mike Johnson stared down anti-Israel protesters at Columbia University last month and affirmed the nation’s support for Jewish students. His remarks were sharp and unequivocal, a welcome contrast with university officials’ hand-wringing and the Biden administration’s feeble response to the antisemitism sweeping across the states. Yet rather than give him credit, Democrats and the press for months have fixated on Mr. Johnson’s background as a ‘Christian nationalist.’ The New Republic claimed he’d been ‘groomed by the Christian right’ in ‘secretive circles’ to ‘rule the United States according to ‘biblical values.’’ Robert Jones, president of the Public Religion Research Institute, described Mr. Johnson as ‘the embodiment of white Christian nationalism in a tailored suit.’” You can read the full editorial here: https://www.wsj.com/articles/the-smear-campaign-against-christian-nationalists-faith-freedom-f3954994?mod=opinion_lead_pos5

5:30pm- The Toobin Missile Crisis! Plus, why did Google claim a recent Trump advertisement was violative of its policies?

5:45pm- Washington Post reporter Taylor Lorenz bizarrely claims LGBTQ members have fewer rights in Texas and Florida than in Gaza—she is quickly corrected by Don Lemon. And on Sunday night, Netflix hosted their roast of former NFL quarterback Tom Brady.

6:05pm- While speaking briefly with the press on Monday prior to entering court in New York City, President Donald Trump said the gag order imposed on him by Judge Juan Merchan is “not fair” and argued that the scope of the gag order infringes upon his constitutional right to free speech. On Monday, Judge Merchan fined Trump $1,000 for violating the gag order and emphasized that continued violations could result in Trump being sent to jail.

6:20pm- After leaving court on Monday, Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump revealed that his “hush money” trial may last another 2 to 3 weeks—which will keep him off the campaign trail.

6:25pm- In a soon to be released book, South Dakota Governor Kristi Noem reveals that she shot and killed a 14-month-old dog and a goat after the two animals misbehaved. Republicans and Democrats alike have rightfully spoken out against her actions, though she has defended herself explaining the incident is proof she is capable of making tough decisions. Did she just end her political career? It certainly seems like it.

6:30pm- Shia Kapos of Politico investigated the source of funding for anti-Israel protests on college campuses. Unsurprisingly, the biggest funders also happen to be some of President Joe Biden’s biggest campaign donors—including George Soros and the Pritzker family. You can read the full article here:  https://www.politico.com/news/2024/05/05/pro-palestinian-protests-columbia-university-funding-donors-00156135

6:40pm- A video that has gone viral on social media show’s a Jewish student at University of Pennsylvania being harassed and threatened by non-student protesters on the school’s campus. Will Philadelphia District Attorney Larry Krasner do anything to protect students? Of course not!

6:50pm- Congresswoman Maxine Waters (D-CA) unveils an incredible new conspiracy theory while being interviewed on MSNBC—violent MAGA supporters are “training up in the hills!”
