The Rich Zeoli Show- Full Episode (05/19/2025): 3:05pm- In a statement on Sunday, former President Joe Biden's office announced that he has been diagnosed with an aggressive form of prostate cancer with metastasis to the bone. In response to the news, President Donald Trump posted to Truth Social: “Melania and I are saddened to hear about Joe Biden's recent medical diagnosis. We extend our warmest and best wishes to Jill and the family, and we wish Joe a fast and successful recovery.” 3:15pm- While appearing on MSNBC's Morning Joe, Dr. Ezekiel Emanuel—an oncologist and bioethicist at the University of Pennsylvania—said that “there is no disagreement” within the medical community, Joe Biden had cancer while he was president of the United States even if he was only diagnosed last Friday. 3:20pm- Jake Tapper's new book, “Original Sin: President Biden's Decline, Its Cover-up, and His Disastrous Choice to Run Again,” which is critical of the Biden Administration for covering up the president's physical and cognitive decline is due to be released later this week—but many Democrats and mainstream media members, including David Axelrod and Brian Steltzer, are saying the conversation regarding the “cover-up” should be paused given Biden's cancer diagnosis. 3:30pm- On Monday, President Donald Trump signed the “Take It Down Act”—a bill designed to halt the disturbing rise of revenge porn and deep fake imagery. 3:40pm- Ukraine-Russia Peace Negotiations: In a post to Truth Social, President Trump wrote: “Just completed my two-hour call with President Vladimir Putin of Russia. I believe it went very well. Russia and Ukraine will immediately start negotiations toward a Ceasefire and, more importantly, an END to the War. The conditions for that will be negotiated between the two parties, as it can only be, because they know details of a negotiation that nobody else would be aware of. The tone and spirit of the conversation were excellent. If it wasn't, I would say so now, rather than later. Russia wants to do large scale TRADE with the United States when this catastrophic ‘bloodbath' is over, and I agree. There is a tremendous opportunity for Russia to create massive amounts of jobs and wealth.” 3:45pm- On Friday, audio of former President Joe Biden's interview with Special Counsel Robert Hur was published by Axios. The audio, from interviews that took place in October 2023, was supposed to determine whether Biden's mishandling of classified documents was criminal. In his final report, Hur decided not to charge Biden with a crime, reasoning: “We have also considered that, at trial, Mr. Biden would likely present himself to a jury, as he did during our interview of him, as a sympathetic, well-meaning, elderly man with a poor memory.” 4:05pm- Bill D'Agostino—Senior Research Analyst at Media Research Center—joins The Rich Zeoli Show to breakdown some of the best (and worst) clips from corporate media including David Axelrod imploring the media to pause all conversations about the Biden Administration's health “cover-up” given the former president's recent cancer diagnosis. 4:40pm- While appearing on Fox News with Maria Bartiromo, FBI Director Kash Patel and FBI Deputy Director Dan Bongino explained they have reviewed all evidence and concluded that Jeffrey Epstein's 2019 death was, as originally reported, a suicide. During the interview, Bongino also revealed that there is no evidence suggesting a larger conspiracy surrounding the assassination attempt against Donald Trump in Butler, PA. 5:00pm- At a press conference from the Oval Office, President Donald Trump awarded the Medal of Sacrifice—honoring law enforcement officers who died in the line of duty and their families. President Trump was joined by Congressmen Byron Donalds and Brian Mast. 5:15pm- On Sunday night, the House Budget Committee successfully advanced a Republican tax and spending bill through the committee vote—with the final vote being 17-16 in favor.

Vitaly Shevchenko, Russia editor, BBC Monitoring brings us the latest from Moscow after the high stakes talks between Russian President Vladimir Putin and US President Donald Trump.

Christopher Miller, Financial Times Chief Ukraine Correspondent discusses the claim by US President Donald Trump that Russia and Ukraine will "immediately" begin negotiations on preparations for peace talks.

The United States President has held a rare phone call with his Russian counterpart Vladimir Putin to discuss a ceasefire in Ukraine. Trump has described the call as "excellent" but Putin seemed less enthusiastic. US correspondent Todd Zwillich spoke to Lisa Owen.

Donald Trump and Vladimir Putin have held a two-hour phone call on ending the war in Ukraine, with both leaders calling the talks constructive. Mr Trump said progress was made towards a ceasefire, while Mr Putin confirmed Russia is ready to resume peace negotiations. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, briefed by Mr Trump before and after the call, warned no agreement would be accepted without Ukraine's involvement or territorial concessions.

In a two-hour phone call, American president Donald Trump and Russian president Vladimir Putin discussed ending the war in Ukraine, calling the talks constructive. While ceasefire negotiations may resume, Ukraine remains firm—demanding full involvement and refusing any territorial concessions in potential peace deals.

US President Donald Trump has said Moscow and Kyiv "will immediately start negotiations" toward a ceasefire and end to their war. It comes following a call between President Trump and Russian President Vladimir Putin yesterday. We discuss this further with Sean Bell, Former Fighter Pilot, Military Analyst and Co-Host of the Red Matrix Podcast.

Siobhan O'Grady, Chief Ukraine Correspondent, Washington Post, brings us the latest from Ukraine on today's eagerly awaited virtual meeting between US President Donald Trump and Russian President, Vladimir Putin.

Donald Trump and Vladimir Putin discuss Ukraine and agree to immediately start ceasefire negotiations. 

Donald Trump and Vladimir Putin discuss Ukraine and agree to immediately start ceasefire negotiations. 

A high-stakes phone call has just ended between Donald Trump and Vladimir Putin aimed at stopping the war in Ukraine. Washington correspondent Nick Harper spoke to Corin Dann.

Health authorities in Gaza say the Israeli military has killed dozens of people in another wave of strikes. They say all public hospitals in the northern Gaza strip are now out of service. The offensive is continuing even as in direct negotiations on a ceasefire are being held between Israel and Hamas in Qatar. We speak to Martin Griffiths, who was up until last year the most senior humanitarian official at the United Nations.Also in the programme: voters in Romania are voting in a second round run-off in their presidential election; Pope Leo XIV has held his inauguration mass at the Vatican with tens of thousands of people, including world leaders, in attendance; and Elton John criticises the British Government's policy on AI and copyright.(Picture: Palestinians inspect the site of an Israeli strike on a house in the north of the Gaza strip on May 18, 2025.

We spend the whole program with Nadav Wieman, a former IDF sniper and now executive director of Breaking the Silence, an organization of Israeli veterans who expose the reality of life in the Occupied Territories and work to end the occupation. He and Ralph discuss Nadav's experience in the IDF and his work trying to turn the tide of sentiment in Israel against the ongoing genocide.Nadav Weiman is the executive director of Breaking the Silence, an organization of Israeli veterans who expose the reality of life in the Occupied Territories and work to end the occupation. Mr. Weiman served in a sniper's team in the special forces of the Nahal brigade and attained the rank of staff sergeant. He also worked as a history and literature teacher and was the legal guardian at a home for underprivileged teens in Tel Aviv.Now the soldiers that gave us testimonies told us that they came to the commander and said, "Okay, this is too much." And the commander said, "Listen, we lost too many dogs in the dog unit, so we're using Palestinians as human shields."Nadav Wieman former IDF sniper and Executive Director of Breaking the SilenceWhen the first soldier came to us in December 2023 and told us about using Palestinians as human shields, I thought it was an isolated event. But then another soldier came and another soldier and another soldier, and then we understood. It's a new protocol. It's called the Mosquito Protocol. “Mosquito,” is a code name on the radio saying, take a Palestinian man and put him in an IDF uniform, and in some cases a GoPro camera on his chest. And then soldiers were ordered to send them into tunnels to sweep the tunnels or into homes to sweep the homes.Nadav WiemanYou have another protocol called “Wasp”. The Wasp Protocol is Palestinians sweeping tunnels, but this time our Palestinians working with the IDF were brought from the West Bank. And they were told that they will get something from us, a permit or something like that.Nadav WiemanNews 5/16/251. Trump has abruptly ended the American war on the Houthi militia in Yemen, saying in a press conference, “You know, we hit them very hard. They had a great capacity to withstand punishment…You can say there's a lot of bravery there…It was amazing what they took. But we honor their commitment and their word,” per Prem Thakker. Behind the scenes, a New York Times report exposes the jaw-dropping waste that precipitated the U.S. backing down from this campaign. Some highlights include that the Houthis almost shot down an F-35 fighter jet – which run about $100 million apiece – that this campaign used so many precision munitions that Pentagon contingency planners grew “increasingly concerned about overall stocks,” and U.S. Central Command (CENTCOM)'s reported metric of success was “bombs dropped,” evoking the failed campaigns in Vietnam, per the Stimson Center's Emma Ashburn. All in all, this campaign cost $1 billion over the course of just 30 days.2. In more stunning news of Pentagon profligacy, CNN reported on May 6th that a SECOND F/A-18 Super Hornet fighter jet fell off the USS Harry S. Truman aircraft carrier into the Red Sea following the first lost jet by just over a week. Each of these planes bear a price tag of over $60 million, according to the Navy, just in case you were wondering where your tax dollars are going now that Trump and Musk have slashed the budget of anything resembling a social program.3. In more foreign policy news, Edan Alexander, the last remaining U.S. citizen hostage in Gaza, has been released. Alexander was born and raised in New Jersey, then moved to Israel to serve in the IDF after graduating high school in 2022. Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu was quoted saying “[Alexander's release] was achieved thanks to our military pressure and the political pressure exerted by President Trump. This is a winning combination.” Meanwhile Trump posted on Truth Social “Edan Alexander, American hostage thought dead, to be released by Hamas. Great news!” Despite this heraldry however, MSN reports Alexander “rebuffed” a personal meeting with Netanyahu. Counter Currents adds “In a video released by Hamas…last November, Alexander harshly criticized Netanyahu…[accusing] the Israeli leader of abandoning the…[hostages]…and urged Trump…to secure his release.” In this video, Alexander told Netanyahu, “You neglected us…We die a thousand times every day, and no one feels our pain.”4. In a similar vein, the Jerusalem Post reports, “The Trump administration's Middle East envoy, Steve Witkoff, criticized Israel in a meeting with hostage families…[saying] ‘We want to bring the hostages home, but Israel is not willing to end the war.'” Witkoff added “Israel is prolonging [the war] despite the fact that we don't see where else we can go and that an agreement must be reached.” Further, the New Arab reports “The Trump administration has…dropped its longstanding demand for Hamas to disarm as a precondition for a Gaza ceasefire.” This willingness to call a spade a spade regarding Israel's intractable opposition to peace, or even a lasting ceasefire – coupled with a seemingly genuine willingness to realistically approach peace talks – has been a marked point of departure compared to the Biden administration, which “Never Pressured Israel for Ceasefire,” according to Israeli Ambassador Yechiel Leiter, as reported in Drop Site News.5. Turning to some positive consumer protection news, “Ticketmaster will now show how much you'll pay for tickets — fees included — before checkout,” the Verge reports. This “All In Prices” initiative is an effort by the company to comply with the Federal Trade Commission's ban on junk fees. The FTC cracked down on Ticketmaster following the 2022 Taylor Swift Eras Tour “ticketing catastrophe.” In addition to the FTC, the Department of Justice sued Ticketmaster and its parent company, Live Nation in 2024, accusing them of “driving up prices as a result of their alleged monopoly,” while the House passed the TICKET Act in 2024, a law that would “force ticket sellers to show full prices upfront.” The Senate is considering that bill now.6. Meanwhile, Igloo has voluntarily widened a recall of their coolers, related to “possible amputation and crushing hazards,” per ABC. The Consumer Product Safety Commission issued a recall notice for a little over a million Igloo 90 Qt. Flip & Tow Rolling Coolers back in February, on the basis that “the tow handle can pinch consumers' fingertips against the cooler,” risking “fingertip amputation.” ABC reports this recall now includes “130,000 additional coolers, as well as approximately 20,000 in Canada and 5,900 in Mexico.” According to the CPSC, “since the recall was initiated in February, Igloo has received 78 reports of injuries involving the recalled coolers, including 26 reports of bone fractures, fingertip amputations or lacerations.”7. The first American Pope, Leo XIV, addressed the College of Cardinals on Sunday, in part explaining his decision to take that particular name. According to Business Insider, AI played a major role. The Pope told the college, “I chose to take the name Leo XIV…mainly because Pope Leo XIII in his historic Encyclical 'Rerum Novarum' addressed the social question in the context of the first great industrial revolution…In our own day, the Church offers to everyone the treasury of her social teaching in response to another industrial revolution and to developments in the field of artificial intelligence that pose new challenges for the defence of human dignity, justice, and labor.” In a January 2024 message, Pope Francis said “At this time in history, which risks becoming rich in technology and poor in humanity, our reflections must begin with the human heart.”8. Turning to domestic politics, 25-year-old Democratic National Committee Vice Chair David Hogg is fighting an uphill battle to remain in his post. The activist and survivor of the Marjory Stoneman Douglas school shooting has been a target of the party hierarchs since he refused to disassociate himself from the mission of the organization he cofounded – Leaders We Deserve – which seeks to primary “asleep-at-the-wheel” Democrats. On May 10th, POLITICO reported that Hogg sought a compromise with the party, vowing that he would erect a “internal firewall,” barring him from “accessing any internal DNC information about congressional and state legislative races as long as he was supporting challengers.” The DNC flatly refused. Instead, it would seem they are trying to oust Hogg by voiding his election, claiming it violated “fairness and gender diversity,” rules, per Semafor. On May 13th, the DNC's Credentials Committee voted to nullify the results of the February election, the Hill reports. According to POLITICO, the full DNC could “opt to hold a virtual vote ahead of the meeting later this summer. Otherwise it will take the issue up during its August meeting.”9. In Newark, New Jersey, Mayor Ras Baraka was “arrested and detained by masked federal immigration police Friday when he joined three Democratic congressmembers set to tour a newly reopened 1,000-bed [ICE] jail run by GEO Group,” Democracy Now! reports. This is the latest installment in the power struggle between federal agents and local officials over immigration, an escalation from the arrest of Judge Hannah Dugan in April. Dugan herself was indicted this week for supposedly “obstructing or impeding a proceeding,” per Wisconsin Public Radio. Alina Habba, U.S. Attorney for the District of New Jersey, tweeted, “The Mayor of Newark…committed trespass…He has willingly chosen to disregard the law…He has been taken into custody.” She added in all caps, “NO ONE IS ABOVE THE LAW.” Chilling words.10. Finally, we pay tribute to Uruguayan revolutionary, anti-dictatorship rebel and former president José “Pepe” Mujica, who passed away this week following a protracted battle with esophageal cancer. Mujica was celebrated throughout the world during his tenure as president for his humble lifestyle; He was called ‘the world's poorest president' famously driving a beat-up old VW bug and donating the bulk of his salary. In 2013, he delivered a bombshell speech at the United Nations in wherein he decried capitalism and the environmental destruction it has wrought. Pulitzer Prize-winning author and historian Greg Grandin eulogized Mujica, writing “He was a member of the insurgent, armed Tupamarus, and served 14 years in prison, much of it in solitary, subject to extreme torture techniques taught by US advisors… Upon his release, he helped build the Frente Amplio into one of the most successful left coalitions. He radiated humility and humanity but he knew that power was meant to be taken and used, and behind his smile was steel. He was 89.”This has been Francesco DeSantis, with In Case You Haven't Heard.

Wednesday, May 14 marked the 77th anniversary of Israel becoming a nation. This significant historical and biblical event was overshadowed this week when President Donald Trump traveled to the Middle East but did not visit Israel.

In this episode, A'ndre speaks with his old boss Dr. Paul Staniland, Professor of Political Science at the University of Chicago and a leading authority on political violence and South Asian security, for an in-depth conversation on the recent confrontation between India and Pakistan.Drawing on his extensive research into armed group-state relations and crisis dynamics, Staniland analyzes the strategic logic behind India's Operation Sindoor, launched in response to a deadly terrorist attack in Kashmir that killed 26 civilians. The conversation explores the evolving nature of India and Pakistan's disputes over Kashmir, the role of militant networks, and the risks of escalation in a nuclear-armed region shaped by domestic politics and great power rivalry.Topics covered include:The political and strategic rationale behind India's cross-border strikesPakistan's relationship with armed groups and its role in crisis escalationLessons from past India-Pakistan confrontations — and what may be different nowThe role of the U.S., China, and backchannel diplomacy in managing the ceasefireHow domestic politics contributed to the confrontationDr. Staniland offers a uniquely grounded perspective on how South Asia's most volatile rivalry is evolving — and what to watch for as both countries recalibrate their strategies under rising regional and global pressure.

This week, President Trump's whirlwind tour of the Middle East sees him striking arms deals and declaring an end to nation-building, even as he engages in tense discussions with former jihadist-turned-Syrian leader Ahmed al-Shara. Meanwhile, in Istanbul, Russian and Ukrainian negotiators prepare for the first peace talks in three years — without Putin, Trump, or Zelenskyy at the table. Russia's battlefield bluster contrasts with its costly, minimal gains, raising questions about its true leverage, and Zelenskyy argues that Putin's absence signals an unwillingness to seek peace. And finally, a temporary truce in the US-China trade war cools tensions, but economists warn that the economic fallout is far from over. Matt Kaminski, Prashant Rao, and Anna Sauerbrey join guest host Carla Anne Robbins on World Review to discuss this week's diplomacy, deals, and doubts.    

Steve Forbes explains how the nearly catastrophic escalation in the conflict between India and Pakistan—thankfully averted due to a ceasefire engineered by the Trump Administration—demonstrates why the world is safer when the U.S. does not bend toward isolationism.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

The sudden announcement of a US-Houthi ceasefire, brokered by Oman, has halted Washington's air campaign in Yemen and raised urgent questions about the future of Red Sea security. What prompted the deal, and what are its implications for maritime shipping, regional alliances, and the trajectory of Yemen's civil war? This episode explores the strategic motivations behind the ceasefire, the role of Iran and Saudi Arabia, and how the Houthis could leverage the pause to regroup and expand their influence across the Horn of Africa. Joining the program is Nadwa Al-Dawsari, associate fellow with the Middle East Institute, the Irregular Warfare Initiative, and the Center on Armed Groups. She speaks with MEI's Alistair Taylor and Matthew Czekaj.   Recorded May 12, 2025

India and Pakistan announced a ceasefire Saturday, after days of fighting along their shared border and in the contested region of Kashmir. While the agreement between the two nuclear powers appeared to be holding, both sides blamed the other for violating the deal. The latest conflict was ignited by a terrorist attack last month in the section of Kashmir controlled by India, but the two countries have been fighting over the disputed region for decades, since the end of British rule and the 1947 partition. Joshua Keating, senior correspondent for Vox covering national security and foreign policy, explains why this latest round of conflict is different.And in headlines: President Donald Trump ordered pharmaceutical companies to voluntarily lower their U.S. drug prices, Missouri Republican Sen. Josh Hawley blasted his party over its plans to slash hundreds of billions of dollars from Medicaid, and the U.S. and China agreed to temporarily slash their tariffs.Show Notes:Check out Joshua's article – www.vox.com/world-politics/412332/india-pakistan-crisis-escalationSubscribe to the What A Day Newsletter – https://tinyurl.com/3kk4nyz8What A Day – YouTube – https://www.youtube.com/@whatadaypodcastFollow us on Instagram – https://www.instagram.com/crookedmedia/For a transcript of this episode, please visit crooked.com/whataday

Vatnik mindspace is full with discussions about the peace talks. One of Girkin's closest buddies, Pavel Gubarev, who used to be the first governor of the so-called DPR has gone completely insane, but even other vatniks now outright admit that a military victory for Russia has become impossible...but they also hate the possibility of a ceasefire.

In this episode of The President's Daily Brief:   A fragile ceasefire between India and Pakistan is holding after the deadliest fighting in decades. U.S. officials reportedly acted on alarming intelligence, sparking a last-minute diplomatic push led by Vice President JD Vance and Secretary of State Marco Rubio.   President Trump says a “total reset” has been negotiated with China after high-level trade talks in Geneva. But questions remain over what was actually agreed to—and whether China sees it the same way.   Vladimir Putin calls for direct peace talks with Ukraine. President Zelensky says he's open to it, but only if Russia agrees to a full ceasefire.   And in today's Back of the Brief—President Trump lands in Riyadh to begin a week of high-stakes diplomacy across the Gulf, including stops in Saudi Arabia, Qatar, and the United Arab Emirates.   To listen to the show ad-free, become a premium member of The President's Daily Brief by visiting PDBPremium.com.
