Did you miss any of The Rich Zeoli Show this week? It's ok. We forgive you. But now is your chance to catch-up on all of the action: On Friday, Attorney General Merrick Garland announced the appointment of a Special Counsel to oversee an investigation into former President Donald Trump. Jack Smith will lead a probe into Trump's handling of classified documents found at his Mar-a-Lago home in Florida and other federal crimes stemming from his conduct following his 2020 election defeat. Garland explained that his decision to appoint a Special Counsel was driven by Trump's recent announcement to run for the President in 2024 and the Justice Department's subsequent fear of appearing politicized. Will this irreparably damage Trump's presidential hopes or only serve to rally his base?  During a recent earnings call, Target CFO Michael Fiddelke estimated that the big-box store has lost over $400 million in profits due to retail theft over the past year. Last year, Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio Cortez referred to rising thefts in progressive cities a “myth.” While speaking with Congressman Chip Roy (R-TX) at a Congressional hearing, Stanford Professor Dr. Jay Bhattacharya described medical censorship during the COVID-19 pandemic as a “disaster” and suggested that it may have led to people being killed. Dr. Bhattacharya also noted that one of the primary sources of “misinformation” has been the federal government. Dakota Wood—Senior Research Fellow for Defense Programs at The Heritage Foundation—joins the show to discuss President Joe Biden's meeting with Chinese leader Xi Jinping. Wood explains that, despite the 3-hour meeting, Biden ignored topics like the origins of COVID-19, the enslavement of Uyghur Muslims in the Xinjiang region of northwest China, and intellectual property theft. Meanwhile, President Xi reiterated that Taiwanese independence is a red line for Beijing. What will it take to deter China from seizing Taiwan?

The Rich Zeoli Show- Hour 4: In his opening remarks from Indonesia, following his meeting with Chinese leader Xi Jinping, President Joe Biden discussed cooperation to meet climate goals—despite China's continued, rapid expansion of coal mines. An internal Republican battle between Florida Governor Ron DeSantis and former President Donald Trump seems to already be in high-gear. Will this rivalry fracture the political party?

3:05pm- On Sunday, Pennsylvania State Senator and Republican candidate for Governor conceded to Governor-elect Josh Shapiro. Shapiro won 56.3% of the total vote, while Mastriano won 41.9% of the total vote. 3:10pm- According to reports, Philadelphia is preparing for the arrival of dozens of undocumented migrants—city officials expect the migrants will be bused from Del Rio, Texas in the coming days. 3:35pm- On Monday, President Joe Biden met with Chinese leader Xi Jinping in Bali, Indonesia ahead of a G20 intergovernmental summit to discuss global economics. While addressing members of the press following the meeting, Biden affirmed that America's “One China Policy” has not changed and said, he believes, there is no “imminent” Chinese invasion of Taiwan. President Xi did not speak with any foreign journalists. 3:45pm- Rich hates his producers: Matt didn't like “Yellowstone” and Daniel, despite earning a bartending license, does not know the difference between seltzer and hard seltzer. 4:05pm- With over 93% of the vote counted, Democrat Katie Hobbs leads Republican Kari Lake—50.5% of the total to 49.5%. But the election was nearly one-week ago, why is Arizona still counting? How has chaos become an acceptable routine every election cycle? To suggest there needs to be alterations in the way votes are tabulated is not synonymous with claims of election fraud despite what many Democrats claim. While on CNN, Ana Navarro claimed that Governor Ron DeSantis “gamed the system” in Florida—why isn't she being accused of embracing election fraud? 4:35pm- Assuming projections are correct, and Republicans take control of the House of Representatives, will there be investigations into Hunter Biden and the Biden family's business interactions with foreign corporations in China and Ukraine? Democrats are already condemning any Congressional investigation—aren't they being inconsistent considering how frequently they investigated Donald Trump and his administration? 4:50pm- Will Kevin McCarthy be the next Speaker of the House? According to ABC's John Karl, McCarthy is no longer a “lock” to win speakership. Meanwhile, Congressman Jamie Raskin (D-MD) warned that Republicans may select former President Donald Trump to serve as Speaker of the House—pointing out that the speaker does not necessarily need to be a member of Congress. 5:00pm- Ryan Manion—Author of the book, “The Knock at the Door: Three Gold Star Families Bonded by Grief and Purpose”— joins The Rich Zeoli Show to discuss her work serving as President of the Travis Manion Foundation.

In the book, Hart uses data to demonstrate how children were “irreversibly damaged” educationally via over-the-top lockdown policies that resulted in remote learning for prolonged periods of time. 6:05pm- In his opening remarks from Indonesia, following his meeting with Chinese leader Xi Jinping, President Joe Biden discussed cooperation to meet climate goals—despite China's continued, rapid expansion of coal mines. 6:25pm- An internal Republican battle between Florida Governor Ron DeSantis and former President Donald Trump seems to already be in high-gear.
