The Rich Zeoli Show- Hour 4:

6:10pm- Fetterman Warns Kamala’s Team About Shapiro: Holly Otterbein of Politico writes: “Pennsylvania Sen. John Fetterman is concerned about the possibility that Vice President Kamala Harris might choose his state’s governor, Josh Shapiro, as her running mate, and his advisers have privately relayed those worries to Harris’ team, according to three people familiar with the conversations. Fetterman’s advisers suggested to Harris’ team that the senator believes that Shapiro is excessively focused on his own personal ambitions.
