Hour 1 of https://RushToReason.com launches with a powerful roundtable featuring Dr. Kelly Victory (https://www.rushtoreason.com/dr-kelly-victory-2), trauma and public-health expert, and Steve House, former health-care executive and longtime analyst. Together, they take listeners into a fast-moving, unfiltered look at free speech, medical censorship, and the disturbing global trends shaping public policy. Why did honest medical debate vanish during COVID? Why is the CDC now admitting gaps in vaccine-autism research after years of denial? And how far are today's Malthusian-minded leaders willing to go—climate mandates, 15-minute cities, population control agendas—to gain power over your daily life? The conversation goes deeper as Steve and Dr. Kelly expose a growing crisis of trust: a collapse in confidence in doctors, the media, the legal system, and government. What happens when truth becomes subjective, experts contradict each other, and critical thinking disappears? And what does it cost to stand against the narrative? Packed with raw honesty, firsthand experiences, and piercing questions, this hour asks listeners to decide: will you choose freedom over force… and can America recover before the window closes? HOUR 2 Hour 2 opens with a powerful, no-nonsense interview featuring Alvin Lui, President of Courage Is a Habit (https://courageisahabit.org), who exposes what he calls the real mission of today's public schools. Is K–12 education still focused on academics—or has it become a pipeline for social-justice indoctrination, emotional manipulation, and Marxist ideology disguised as “empathy” and “mental health”? Alvin breaks down how language contamination, restorative justice, and culturally responsive teaching reshape children's worldview by teaching them to rely on the government, not their parents. How do you protect your kids when teachers get the “best hours” of your child's day… and you only get the leftovers? Then the hour pivots to government overreach on a broader scale—from California's jaw-dropping proposal that could force teens up to age sixteen into booster seats, to new credit-card surcharge schemes that threaten to nickel-and-dime consumers into submission. Are these policies really about safety and business costs… or part of a growing trend where personal freedom shrinks and regulation expands? Packed with insight, candor, and urgency, this hour dares listeners to ask: How much control are we willing to give away—and who benefits when we do? HOUR 3 Hour 3 explodes out of the gate with Jersey Joe (https://www.youtube.com/@jerzeejoe3145) and John taking on one of the biggest battles of our time: truth vs. deception. What happens when people build their worldview on memes, bad data, and AI-generated political fakes that look and sound like the real thing? From Thomas Sowell's warnings about moral superiority to a deepfake Bernie Sanders quote that even Joe fell for, the hour raises a chilling question: how do you find truth in a world where lies are easier than ever to manufacture? Then the tone shifts to opportunity and grit, as Mike Rowe and NVIDIA's Jensen Huang predict that America's next millionaires won't come from Silicon Valley—they'll come from the trades. Plumbers, electricians, mechanics, and young entrepreneurs willing to take risks are building wealth the old-fashioned way: sweat, skill, and guts. But the hour doesn't stay calm for long. Joe and John rip through outrageous real-world stories—dangerous crime policies, ICE operations, exploding government costs, and EVs that fail spectacularly. Finally, Phil Kerpen, president of American Commitment (https://www.americancommitment.org), exposes the stunning truth about AARP and its billion-dollar ties to UnitedHealth. Is the nation's most famous “senior advocacy group” really advocating for seniors… or something far more lucrative? Hour Three is packed with facts, fire, and the kind of questions that make you rethink everything.

Tune in here to this Monday's edition of the Brett Winterble Show! We’re joined by Phil Kerpen from American Commitment to talk about the origins of Obamacare and the current debate over healthcare subsidies. Kerpen explains how economist Jonathan Gruber, a key architect of the Affordable Care Act, designed the program’s structure and misled the public about its real costs and redistributive goals. He recalls how Gruber once boasted about relying on the “stupidity of the American voter” to push the legislation through, and how Democrats later denied knowing him when his comments resurfaced. The conversation then shifts to the present-day battle in Congress over extending the extra COVID-era Obamacare subsidies. Kerpen argues that these expanded subsidies have led to waste, fraud, and inflated costs, while Democrats continue to blame Republicans for the system’s failures. Brett and Phil agree that restoring fiscal responsibility and accountability in healthcare policy is critical as the debate moves forward.

In Washington, D.C., the “government shutdown” continues as Democrats demand that Republicans expand subsidies for Obamacare in exchange for lifting a filibuster on a “clean continuing resolution” that would reopen the government through approximately Thanksgiving. What listeners might not know is that there are is a big, well-known advocacy group and major corporation that look to benefit from those subsidies being extended: AARP, and its $9 billion funder, UnitedHealth. Joining us to discuss the dance of Obamacare, the AARP, and UnitedHealth is Phil Kerpen, president of American Commitment.

Tune in here to this Friday edition of The Brett Winterble Show! We're joined by Phil Kerpen from American Commitment to talk about the state of the U.S. economy and the growing instability within the Federal Reserve.

The Rich Zeoli Show- Hour 3: 5:05pm- Phil Kerpen—President of American Commitment—joins The Rich Zeoli Show to discuss the 2017 Trump tax cuts which will expire at the end of the year. Kerpen explains it is urgent the House and Senate agree on language to make those cuts permanent, especially with the economic uncertainty surrounding the Trump Administration's reciprocal tariffs. 5:30pm- While appearing on Fox News Sunday with Shannon Bream, U.S. Attorney General Pam Bondi said there is a “constitutional crisis”—pointing out that “since January 20th, we've had over 170 lawsuits filed against” the Trump Administration. Notably, Chief Justice John Roberts temporarily blocked a district court order demanding the return of a man the Trump Administration sent to an El Salvadorian prison. Meanwhile, New York Attorney General Letitia James told a crowd that she will use the law as a “sword” to go after President Donald Trump. Weekday afternoons on Talk Radio 1210 WPHT, Rich Zeoli gives the expert analysis and humorous take that we need in this crazy political climate. Along with Executive Producer Matt DeSantis and Justin Otero, the Zeoli show is the next generation of talk radio and you can be a part of it weekday afternoons 3-7pm.
The Rich Zeoli Show- Full Show (04/07/2025): 3:05pm- In response to the Trump Administration's reciprocal tariff, the S&P 500 fell nearly 1% on Monday—and is now down 14% over the last three days of trading. It has lost more than $5 trillion in value since the beginning of last week. Meanwhile, the Dow Jones Industrial Average has declined by more than 20% from its recent high, entering correction territory. 3:30pm- On Monday, President Donald Trump met with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in the Oval Office. During the meeting Trump answered numerous questions from the press—many regarding tariffs and the U.S. economy. Netanyahu pledged to eliminate the trade deficit between the U.S. and Israel and reduce tariffs on U.S. imports to 0%. 3:50pm- China has vowed to place an additional 34% tariff on U.S. imported goods—matching the tariffs the Trump Administration announced against Chinese-made products. In a post to Truth Social, Trump warned that if China retaliates, he will impose an additional 50% tariff on their goods effective on April 9th. Trump continued: “Negotiations with other countries, which have also requested meetings, will begin taking place immediately.” 4:00pm- On Monday, President Donald Trump met with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in the Oval Office.
