The Rich Zeoli Show- Full Episode (04/15/2024):

3:05pm- The Washington Post reports: “The FBI has opened a criminal investigation focusing on the massive container ship that brought down the Francis Scott Key Bridge in Baltimore last month—a probe that will look at least in part at whether the crew left the port knowing the vessel had serious system problems.” You can read the full report from Katie Mettler, Devlin Barrett, Danny Nguyen, and Peter Hermann here: https://www.washingtonpost.com/dc-md-va/2024/04/15/balitmore-key-bridge-criminal-investigation/

3:15pm- On Saturday, Iran launched an estimated 170 drones and 150 missiles at Israel. Thankfully, most of the attack was blunted by Israel’s missile defense system resulting in only minimal damage inside of Israel.

3:20pm- Reacting to Iran’s attack on Israel, White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre said it was necessary for Congress to pass a foreign aid bill that not only sends money to Israel but also tens-of-billions of dollars to Ukraine.

3:30pm- According to a concerning report from Reuters, “Iran informed Turkey in advance of its planned operation against Israel, a Turkish diplomatic source told Reuters on Sunday, adding that Washington had conveyed to Tehran via Ankara that any action it took had to be ‘within certain limits.’… The Turkish source, speaking on condition of anonymity, said Turkish Foreign Minister Hakan Fidan had spoken to both his US and Iranian counterparts in the past week to discuss the planned Iranian operation… ‘Iran informed us in advance of what would happen. Possible developments also came up during the meeting with Blinken, and they (the US) conveyed to Iran through us that this reaction must be within certain limits,’ the source said.” Did the Biden Administration negotiate the severity of the attack against Israel? You can read the full report here: https://www.reuters.com/world/middle-east/iran-informed-turkey-advance-its-operation-against-israel-turkish-source-2024-04-14/

3:40pm- In response to Iran’s attack on Israel, Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump told supporters at a rally in Schnecksville, PA that “the weakness that we've shown is unbelievable and it would not have happened if we were in office. You know that. They know that. Everybody knows that. America prays for Israel, and we send our absolute support.”

3:55pm- Organized protests in major cities across the globe—including New York City and Chicago domestically—are taking place in hopes of stifling the global economy as part of a bizarre form of support for Palestinians. The demonstrations are purposefully clogging busy streets and bridges.

Toto is the host of The Hollywood in Toto Podcast which you can find here: https://www.hollywoodintoto.com.

4:50pm- While leaving a New York City court on Monday, former President Donald Trump told reporters it is a “scam trial” and the politicized charges amount to “election interference.” Trump has been indicted for attempting to conceal payments made to adult film actress Stormy Daniels. Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg alleges that the payment concealment amounted to falsified business records which influenced the 2016 election.

5:00pm- Pastor Bill Devlin—of the charity Widows & Orphans—joins The Rich Zeoli Show live from Kirkuk, Iraq where he is providing aid to Christians being persecuted by the Islamic State. Pastor Devlin also describes what it was like being in the Middle East over the weekend while Iran launched an attack against Israel.

5:15pm- While leaving a New York City court on Monday, former President Donald Trump told reporters it is a “scam trial” and the politicized charges amount to “election interference.” He also revealed that the judge will not allow him to skip part of the trial to attend his son’s high school graduation.

5:35pm- Rich had an interesting morning—hauling 1,000 pounds of sand, and then walking around Wegmans with unicorn balloons.

5:40pm- Abbie VanSickle of The New York Times reports: “The Supreme Court on Monday temporarily allowed a ban to take effect in Idaho on gender-affirming treatment for minors, a signal that at least some justices appear comfortable with wading into another front in the culture wars. In siding with state officials who had asked the court to lift a block on the law, the justices were split, with a majority of the conservative justices voting to enforce the ban over the objections of the three liberal justices. The justices also specified that their decision would remain in place until the appeals process had ended.” You can read the full article here: https://www.nytimes.com/2024/04/15/us/politics/supreme-court-idaho-transgender.html

5:50- What’s the best fast-food chain in America?

6:05pm- Elizabeth Goitein—Co-Director of the Liberty and National Security Program at the Brennan Center for Justice—writes “Buried in the House intelligence committee’s Section 702 ‘reform’ bill, which is schedule for a floor vote as soon as tomorrow, is the biggest expansion of surveillance inside the United States since the Patriot Act. Through a seemingly innocuous change to the definition of ‘electronic service communications provider,’ the bill vastly expands the universe of U.S. businesses that can be conscripted to aid the government in conducting surveillance. Under current law, the government can compel companies that have direct access to communications, such as phone, email, and text messaging service providers, to assist in Section 702 surveillance by turning over the communications of Section 702 targets. Under Section 504 of the House intelligence committee’s bill, any entity that has access to *equipment* on which communications may be transmitted or stored, such as an ordinary router, is fair game. What does that mean in practice? It’s simple…Hotels, libraries, coffee shops, and other places that offer wifi to their customers could be forced to serve as surrogate spies. They could be required to configure their systems to ensure that they can provide the government access to entire streams of communications.” You can read her full statement on X: https://twitter.com/LizaGoitein/status/1734249938333167889

6:15pm- While appearing on MSNBC, Rep. James Clyburn (D-SC) said that if it hadn’t been for a Russian disinformation campaign during the 2016 election cycle, Hillary Clinton would have defeated Donald Trump.

6:40pm- The Washington Post reports: “The FBI has opened a criminal investigation focusing on the massive container ship that brought down the Francis Scott Key Bridge in Baltimore last month—a probe that will look at least in part at whether the crew left the port knowing the vessel had serious system problems.” You can read the full report from Katie Mettler, Devlin Barrett, Danny Nguyen, and Peter Hermann here: https://www.washingtonpost.com/dc-md-va/2024/04/15/balitmore-key-bridge-criminal-investigation/
