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 the action: On Tuesday night, Pennsylvanians elected Democrat John Fetterman to the U.S. Senate. With 94% of the vote reporting, according to the Associated Press, Fetterman leads Dr. Mehmet Oz 50.5% to 47.1%. In the state's Gubernatorial race, Democrat Josh Shapiro easily defeated Republican Doug Mastriano—current reporting has Shapiro leading by over 700,000 votes. Why did Republicans underperform in Tuesday's midterm elections? Did abortion play a larger role in Pennsylvania than many were expecting? Did candidate quality doom Republicans? Henry attempts to select a film for today's Movie Mystery Clip, but Rich and Matt have never heard of his choice, “My Left Foot"—it's likely no one else on the planet has heard of it either! The segment quickly devolves into chaos. Marc Joffe—Policy Analyst at the CATO Institute—joins The Rich Zeoli Show to discuss his latest editorial for National Review, “Is the Biden Administration Creating a Medicaid Fiscal Cliff?” Joffe writes: “By continuing to needlessly extend the Covid-19 state of emergency, the Biden administration is making Medicaid even more financially unsustainable than it already was.” According to data from the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS), more than a quarter of “Americans are now enrolled in Medicaid or CHIP.” Could this rapid expansion lead to single-payer healthcare? Read more at: https://www.nationalreview.com/2022/11/is-the-biden-administration-creating-a-medicaid-fiscal-cliff/ The Washington Post's Glenn Kessler awarded President Joe Biden a “bottomless Pinocchio” for not only making grossly misleading statements but repeating the falsehoods routinely. For example, Biden claimed he has spent “more time with Xi Jinping than any other head of state” and has traveled more than “17,000 miles with him.” Kessler points out that not only are these claims false, but he has repeated the claim 21 times! According to the WaPo, Biden has also lied about the price of gas, student debt forgiveness, and Social Security cost-of-living increases. Clarice Schillinger—former candidate for Pennsylvania Lieutenant Governor & Executive Director of Back to School U.S.A.—joins The Rich Zeoli Show to discuss her latest opinion editorial at Broad + Liberty, “The Pennsylvania GOP is a Dumpster Fire.”Read more at: https://broadandliberty.com/2022/11/09/beth-ann-rosica-and-clarice-schillinger-the-pennsylvania-gop-is-a-dumpster-fire/
Friends, Veterans Day is a time to honor those who have fought to protect American democracy, especially those who gave their lives so that our democracy can endure. We have just emerged from midterm elections that have tested that democracy as it has not been tested since the Civil War. In large part, our democracy passed that test. We are indebted to all candidates who peacefully and responsibly conceded defeat, and to all election workers who worked so diligently (and in several states are still working) to ensure the legitimacy of the elections. The aspect of the midterm elections that gives me most hope for the future is the growing ranks of the young — as well as people of color and women — among American voters and in American politics. By 2028, Millennials & Gen Z'rs will dominate U.S. elections. This is why the GOP is pulling out all the stops to entrench Republican power. They know they don't stand a chance against a multi-racial, progressive generation of young people that will make the GOP's backwards ideas irrelevant.They are the Republican Party's worst nightmare.The latest data prove the point. In this weeks' midterm elections, 27 percent of young people (ages 18 to 29) turned out — the second-highest youth voter turnout in almost three decades.These young people helped decide critical races. In a group of nine electorally competitive states for which exit poll data is available (Florida, Georgia, Michigan, North Carolina, New Hampshire, Nevada, Ohio, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin), the aggregate youth voter turnout was 31%.In Michigan, the early youth vote was up 207 percent from 2018. In Pennsylvania, up 318 percent. In Wisconsin, up 360 percent.Young people were a critical force in holding back a “red wave.” They supported Democratic House candidates by 62 percent to 35 percent.According to AP VoteCast, an in-depth survey of more than 94,000 voters nationwide, 61 percent of voters younger than 45 backed Democrat John Fetterman in his Pennsylvania Senate race. What accounts for these astounding numbers?Start with Trump, who continues to be deeply and justifiably despised by most young people. He wasn't on any ballot, but he made his presence as conspicuous as he always does. Trump insisted on campaigning loudly and belligerently. Most Republican candidates joined in his big lie that he won the 2020 election.Next is the stark political reality that young people -- the first generation in America to be subject in school to active shooter drills – want action on gun violence. They also want progress on the climate crisis, presumably because they'll be living longer with its consequences than anyone else. And they're passionate about preserving reproductive rights.Don't get me wrong. The growing numbers and political power of young people, as well as people of color and women, is not an argument for complacency.To the contrary, it means Republicans will now be even more determined to suppress their votes. Fighting voter suppression in all its forms -- making it easier rather than harder to vote – should continue to be among our highest priorities.We can also expect more cruel divisiveness from the Trumpian Republicans, especially if, as seems most likely, they take back control of the House. How to fight this? Not with more belligerence, which only kindles more of the same. No, we fight it with openness and civility. Third, we must continue to do everything possible to relieve the economic burdens borne by young people, women, and people of color – especially the escalating costs of housing, childcare, and higher education, and the scarcity of good jobs paying a living wage.The encouraging reality is the inevitability of these long-term demographic trends: a nation that's younger, more female, and with more people of color -- and, largely as a result, more progressive.“History was made tonight,” tweeted Maxwell Alejandro Frost, the first Gen Z'r to be elected to Congress Tuesday night, at the ripe age of 25. “We made history for Floridians, for Gen Z, and for everyone who believes we deserve a better future.”Indeed. Anyone worried about the direction this nation is heading still has much to be worried about. But we should find some solace in the young people who are committed to redirecting it toward social justice and democracy.

In the state's Gubernatorial race, Democrat Josh Shapiro easily defeated Republican Doug Mastriano—current reporting has Shapiro leading by over 700,000 votes.

3:05pm- On Tuesday night, Pennsylvania elected Democrat John Fetterman to the U.S. Senate. With 94% of the vote reporting, according to the Associated Press, Fetterman leads Dr. Mehmet Oz 50.5% to 47.1%. In the state's Gubernatorial race, Democrat Josh Shapiro easily defeated Republican Doug Mastriano—current reporting has Shapiro leading by over 700,000 votes. 3:30pm- Why did Republicans underperform in Tuesday's midterm elections? Did abortion play a larger role in Pennsylvania than many were expecting? Did candidate quality doom Republicans? 4:05pm- Though the “red wave” many polling outlets were expecting never seemed to materialize, it still seems likely that Republicans will control the House of Representatives and can still gain a majority in the Senate as well. 4:10pm- On Tuesday, Pennsylvanians reelected Democrat Anthony “Tony” DeLuca to the Pennsylvania House of Representatives. However, DeLuca died on October 9th—a special election will now be triggered, though no date has been announced. 4:40pm- On Wednesday, President Joe Biden spoke with members of the press about the November 8th midterm election results—calling it “a good day…for democracy.” 5:05pm- While on MSNBC, Joe Scarborough used the saying: “Lives in Jersey, Votes in Turkey!” to describe the Republican candidate for U.S. Senate Dr. Mehmet Oz. Has Scarborough been listening to The Rich Zeoli Show? 5:20pm- In Florida, incumbent Ron DeSantis (R) won his gubernatorial race against Charlie Crist (D) by nearly 20-points—including a win in Miami-Dade County, a historically Democrat-county that Republicans hadn't captured in twenty-years. During his victory speech, DeSantis declared, “Florida is where woke comes to die!” as the crowd chanted, “two-more years”—a reference to the 2024 Presidential race. 5:40pm- Mario Balaban—Media Relations Manager at Project Veritas Action—joins The Rich Zeoli Show to talk about Project Veritas' quest to guarantee safe, fair elections while concurrently exposing any practices that could potentially be problematic. At one Philadelphia ballot collection location, Project Veritas alarmingly identified a set of keys sitting on top of a drop box. Thankfully, there is no sign of voter fraud, but why isn't Philadelphia more active in preventing accidents like this one from occurring? 6:05pm- Following Ron DeSantis' big Gubernatorial win in Florida, Donald Trump warned: “If [DeSantis] did run [for president], I will tell you things about him that won't be very flattering. I know more about him than anybody other than perhaps his wife, who is really running his campaign.” 6:35pm- Who are you backing in a hypothetical 2024 Presidential primary race between former President Donald Trump and Florida Governor Ron DeSantis? Zeoli audience members call in to voice their opinions! Who are they taking?

9:05 - The Red Wave that Never Happened A red wave was the minimum of what Republicans expected... The really wanted a Red Tsunami... it felt like they were on the edge of their seats all night long.

Dave and Debbie go over the swings and misses. 9:20 - Mike Lee takes victory against Evan Mcmullin - would it have mattered if McMullin would have run as a democrat?Republican Senator Mike Lee declares victory, Independent candidate Evan McMullin concedes defeat -- but let's not gloss over the numbers -- let's get granular -- in SLCO -- Evan is up 17% over Mike. Hypothetical question: what if McMullin would have run as a democrat -- would that have mattered? For an overall loss -- this is a win. Statewide Lee is up 14% -- but let's remember last election -- Lee won by 41%. James Curry, Political Science Professor at the University of Utah joins the show.9:35 - National Election Roundup All aboard on our election train ... with stops in PN where John Fetterman beat celebrity doctor Mehmet Oz to turn that senate seat blue -- Ohio -- where Trump backed JD Vance goes from Hillbilly Elegy to the US Senate.

Thursday's edition of "Connecticut Today" with Paul Pacelli had Paul wondering whether or not the state's Republican primary voters will ever nominate a candidate who can actually win (0:30). Pittsburgh radio veteran Kevin Battle broke down the recent U.S. Senate campaign between Democrat John Fetterman and Republican Dr. Mehmet Oz (9:49). Image Credit: Getty Images
On Tuesday's Mark Levin Show, let's be clear about who's interfering in elections; Democrat John Fetterman is suing to have updated mail-in ballots accepted and counted despite a recent court ruling. In Arizona, Katie Hobbs is the chief elections officer, and she is the Democrat running for governor. Polls are still open in every part of the country and red-blooded Americans must make their way to the polls to cast their votes. Then, cheap shots against candidates will not be tolerated. Like it or not, Ron DeSantis is beloved by conservatives for rejecting Fauci's lockdowns and vaccine mandates. Later, Anna Paulina Luna flipped former Governor Crist's congressional seat while Governor DeSantis and Marco Rubio handily won reelection including carrying a majority in Miami-Dade county.

Democrats outperformed expectations in Tuesday's midterms, but Republicans still look likely to take back the House. We talk to reporters covering Congress and the White House about what to make of the results we have so far, and what to look for next. Read more:Control of both chambers of Congress remained undecided Wednesday morning after Democrats showed surprising strength in key battleground races on Election Day. On “Post Reports,” we're joined by White House reporter Tyler Pager and Liz Goodwin, who covers Congress for The Post. They talk about the key issues in this race — including democracy and abortion access, which voters supported even in heavily Republican states.In the Senate, races remained uncalled in Wisconsin, Georgia, Arizona and Nevada. Democrat John Fetterman won the Senate race in Pennsylvania, defeating Republican Mehmet Oz, who conceded on Wednesday. That was a pickup for Democrats. Republicans prevailed in Ohio and North Carolina, fending off efforts to flip those seats. Democrats retained seats representing New Hampshire, Colorado and Washington state.
All the votes have been cast in Midterms 2022, and many of the results are in. Florida Republicans are celebrating statewide victories in the elections for Governor and Senate. But outside of the Sunshine state, it's hard to find evidence of a significant "red wave" that many Republicans had hoped for. For the most part, Republican candidates won in Republican districts, and Democrats carried Democratic districts. The statewide races didn't bring many surprises: Republican JD Vance took Ohio. Democratic candidate for governor Stacey Abrams conceded to Republican governor Brian Kemp. Democrat John Fetterman secured Pennsylvania. And as of Wednesday morning, many of the toss up state-wide races like Wisconsin and Nevada were still up in the air. We get election takeaways from Joel Payne, Democratic strategist, and CBS News political contributor and Brendan Buck, a partner with the political communications firm, Seven Letter. Brendan was the press secretary for Mitt Romney's 2012 presidential campaign and former House Speakers John Boehner and Paul Ryan.
It's Wednesday, November 9th, A.D. 2022. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard at www.TheWorldview.com. I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Jonathan Clark and Adam McManus Thailand legalized abortions up to 20 weeks of pregnancy In Thailand, the country's Public Health Ministry legalized abortions up to 20 weeks of pregnancy at the end of last month. The move extends a previous law which allowed the murder of unborn babies up to 12 weeks. Pro-abortion legislation in the country is new. Thailand had criminalized abortion as recently as 2020. Canadian court acquitted pastor for in-person worship services Last Tuesday, the Provincial Court of Alberta acquitted a Canadian pastor of violating COVID-19 restrictions on in-person worship services. Pastor Tim Stephens of Fairview Baptist Church spent three weeks in jail last year for refusing to abide by the government's worship bans. In a blog post, Pastor Stephens praised God for the victory while calling for repentance in Canada. He wrote, “Our society with its laws, mandates, and opinions reflect a change of ‘god' with corresponding views of authority and humanity that will lead to dystopia unless there is repentance.” Psalm 37:1-3 says, “Fret not yourself because of evildoers; be not envious of wrongdoers! For they will soon fade like the grass and wither like the green herb. Trust in the Lord, and do good; dwell in the land and befriend faithfulness.” Victors include Huckabee Sanders, DeSantis, Rubio, and Polis Tens of millions of Americans headed to the polls yesterday for the 2022 midterm elections. At stake is control of both houses of Congress and 36 governorships. FiveThirtyEight released their final election forecast yesterday. Republicans were widely favored to win the U.S. House of Representatives. They were also slightly favored to win the Senate with a 59% chance of control over Democrats' 41% chance. The victors included New Hampshire Republican Governor Chris Sununu, Arkansas Republican Governor-elect Sarah Huckabee Sanders, Florida Republican Governor Ron DeSantis, Florida Republican Senator Marco Rubio, Ohio Republican Senator-elect J.D. Vance, and Colorado Democratic Governor Jared Polis, a self-professed homosexual. Republican Greg Abbott beat Democrat Richard “Beto” O'Rourke Texas Republican Governor Greg Abbott beat celebrity Democratic candidate Robert Francis “Beto” O'Rourke 55.8% to 43.0%, reports the Texas Tribune. Listen to what the Fox News panel had to say about O'Rourke last night, starting with Britt Hume. HUME: “O'Rourke is becoming the Charlie Crist of Texas.” (chuckles) MARTHA MacCALLUM: “He's gone from the cover of Vanity Fair magazine and this shining hope of the Democrat Party. Jessica, your thoughts on what has happened to Beto O'Rourke. Does this seal the deal? Is he done now in politics or not?” JESSICA TARLOV: “If the evening goes as I expect it to for Stacey Abrams as well, there's going to be a lot of soul searching about where you're dumping your money when you go on Act Blue. There are a lot of people whose races are a lot closer. “These are celebrity candidates. I think that there have been incredible messaging moments that are going to have rallied the Democratic base and made you really focus on the issues that matter to us as a party. They are seemingly just not great candidates to win statewide office and I hope people will take stock of that.” Senate races too close to call at 10:33pm central Tuesday night According to Fox News, a number of the hotly contested races for U.S. Senate were too close to call at The Worldview's press deadline last night at 10:33pm Central. They include the races in Georgia between Democrat Senator Raphael Warnock and Republican challenger Hershel Walker, in Pennsylvania between Democrat John Fetterman and Republican Mehmet Oz, and in Wisconsin between Republican Senator Ron Johnson and Democrat challenger Mandela Barnes. A look at the past 22 midterm elections In a column entitled “The 2022 Midterm Elections: What The Historical Data Suggests,” John Wooley wrote, “In the 22 midterm elections from 1934 -2018, the President's party has averaged a loss of 28 House seats and four Senate seats. The president's party gained seats in the House only three times, but gained seats in the Senate on six occasions. The president's party has gained seats in both houses only twice. “The incumbent president's ability to launch new major policy initiatives would be greatly weakened under divided government. If the Democrats lose control of either House, the Administration can expect to be the target of numerous congressional inquiries.” New York Christians want to be able to defend themselves at church A church in New York State is challenging a law that bans guns in places of worship. The New York law prohibits the carrying of firearms in houses of worship regardless of whether a church “prefers to permit—or even encourage—people to carry a firearm on its premises.” First Liberty Institute filed the lawsuit last Thursday on behalf of His Tabernacle Family Church. The lawsuit accuses New York of making churches choose between their First and Second Amendment rights as well as leaving them particularly vulnerable to violence. Daughter of 107-year-old South Carolinian woman gives God the glory And finally, a Christian woman from South Carolina celebrated her 107th birthday last month. Adell Julie Thompson was born October 10, 1915. She told WLTX News 19 she does what the Bible tells her: “I had no dream of being 107 years. But the Lord spared me, and I try to do the right thing.” Thompson has lived through 18 U.S. presidencies.

All the votes have been cast in Midterms 2022, and many of the results are in. Florida Republicans are celebrating statewide victories in the elections for Governor and Senate. But outside of the Sunshine state, it's hard to find evidence of a significant "red wave" that many Republicans had hoped for. For the most part, Republican candidates won in Republican districts, and Democrats carried Democratic districts. The statewide races didn't bring many surprises: Republican JD Vance took Ohio. Democratic candidate for governor Stacey Abrams conceded to Republican governor Brian Kemp. Democrat John Fetterman secured Pennsylvania. And as of Wednesday morning, many of the toss up state-wide races like Wisconsin and Nevada were still up in the air. We get election takeaways from Joel Payne, Democratic strategist, and CBS News political contributor and Brendan Buck, a partner with the political communications firm, Seven Letter. Brendan was the press secretary for Mitt Romney's 2012 presidential campaign and former House Speakers John Boehner and Paul Ryan.

President Joe Biden has made several false or misleading claims while campaigning for congressional Democrats before the Midterm Elections, according to CNN. President Joe Biden's approval rating among independents has reached an "all-time low" in one survey just before the midterm elections. ABC News' Jon Karl fretted over the notion that Republicans would hold the Biden administration accountable if the they win this week's midterm elections. Elon Musk tweeted Sunday that Twitter will permanently suspend any account on the social media platform that impersonates another. Multiplatinum artist Kid Rock slammed television icon Oprah Winfrey on Saturday and called her a “fraud” after Winfrey endorsed the Pennsylvania Senate campaign of Democrat John Fetterman over his Republican opponent, Dr. Mehmet Oz, whom Winfrey has known and worked with for decades.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Is It the End? Will this be the last election before the second American Civil War? Or is this just history rhyming? This may be a rhyming of history seemly similar to the carter Ragan years. While the midterms heat up with the races for the House, Senate, and Governor, the most notable midterm race to keep an eye on, would be Pennsylvania Senate Race between Republican candidate Dr. Memet Oz and Democrat John Fetterman. Fetterman took a hit after the debate in October, giving Oz a jump ahead in the polls. This also leads to another question of why we are seeing celebrities running for public office. We discuss points of interest, of how the Dems tow party lines and how celebrities are overwhelmingly liberal progressive and democrat on this segment of the CMR Sunday Show. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/christmediapolitcs/support
Oprah Winfrey endorsed Democrat John Fetterman in the ultratight Pennsylvania Senate race during a virtual GOTV event Thursday night. More than just another celebrity endorsement, it's a pointed snub by Winfrey of Mehmet Oz, the celebrity doctor she single-handedly brought to national prominence. "If I lived in Pennsylvania,” she said, “I would've already cast my vote for John Fetterman, for many reasons.” The endorsement was in the works for months, our Holly Otterbein reported late last night: “Fetterman's orbit knew how powerful a nod from Winfrey would be, and it worked behind the scenes to court her. The Fettterman campaign made a direct appeal to her for a meeting, according to a person familiar with the outreach.” And Steve Shepard shares his penultimate Election Forecast update, with ratings changes in three Senate, 13 House and four governor races. All but one are moving toward Republicans. The Senate … The overall landscape continues to be in “Toss-Up” territory, but Republicans appear to have a growing upside: With six races now coin-flips, an even split of those races would be enough to secure a GOP majority, while a sweep would hand the party 54 seats.

Live from the no panic zone—I'm Steve Gruber—I am America's Voice— I am an anti- socialist Here are three big things you need to know right now— ONE— Ok, seriously what happened with Paulie P? Nancy Pelosi's sometimes hammered husband that actually got hammered by an assailant over the weekend—seems like a lot doesn't add up— TWO— A spy inside the Kremlin says Vladimir Putin has both Parkinsons disease—and Pancreatic cancer—making him the most dangerous man in the world—with all those nukes— THREE— Several major developments as we are now inside a week to go before the mid-term elections—final day of voting—something we used to call Election Day—but now its just the last day of voting—BUT I digress— In a stunning poll from the Empire State—a new poll from Trafalgar shows you I was right way back when I said Lee Zeldin could become the next Governor of New York—and I got a bunch of push back from the Guiliani supporters and some non-sense about Zeldin not being up for the job—well there is a big move his way—so it looks like I was right about that one too— along with several other spot-on predictions— I will put my record against anyone else right now— There are also major developments in the run to gain control of the United States Senate—which include Dr. Oz taking a 3-point lead in the latest poll in Pennsylvania—that came out after last weeks disastrous performance by Democrat John Fetterman—it is the first time that Oz has led in any poll— Meanwhile in New Hampshire—General Don Bolduc—who I have had the pleasure to speak with several times in recent days—has taken his first lead in any poll too—leading Democrat incumbent Maggie Hassan by a point—in fact the polls have gotten so tight now that Real Clear politics is beginning to see I was right—and are now predicting Republicans will pick up 4 seats on November 8th—I still think I could reach 5— Why? Well one reason happened in Arizona Tuesday—another big boost for the Republicans and the surge to re-take the United States Senate—because the Libertarian in Arizona, officially dropped out of the race and endorsed the Republican Blake Masters—in recent polling Masters has been right on the tail of Democrat Mark Kelley—and with the Libertarian who has been picking up 3 to 6 points in the polls and putting his complete support behind Masters—it almost guarantees that Arizona will flip Red— And one more state—that nobody was even watching until a couple of weeks ago—Washington is now home to a neck and neck race between incumbent Patty Murray—and hard charging Tiffany Smiley—with one poll showing it too has become a dead heat— Add Nevada and Georgia—and you have all the ingredients for an enormous Republican wave come next week— The wave will be led by women who are disenchanted with all of Joe Bidens failing economic and energy policies—and boosted by Latino and Black voters that have simply decided they have been on the receiving end of far too many broken promises by Democrats—and its time to move on— That means that my original call of 58 seats in the house and 5 seats in the Senate—doesn't seem too crazy anymore—in fact Real Clear Politics has shifted 2 dozen races to the GOP in the last month—and NOT ONE to the Democrats— I mean what does that tell you? Even the media pundits and the in-the-bag-pollsters cannot save the implosion of the socialists at the ballot box come Tuesday— Now they may still play games and save a seat or two—BUT we are getting this country back—and after 2024—the sleazy socialists will be pushed into the trash heap of history— However it is harder for some to admit they are completely out to lunch than others—
A man broke into the home of House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and attacked her husband. The speaker was not home at the time and her husband is expected to make a full recovery. But, a source briefed on the attack told NPR, the assailant was looking for the Speaker.In Pennsylvania, a debate challenged Democrat John Fetterman as he continues to recover from a stroke.

Midterm elections are a week and a half away, which could alter the balance of power in the nation's capital. Millions of people have already cast their ballots, and overall voter turnout is projected to be one of the highest ever for a midterm. The Senate race in Pennsylvania could be crucial for Democrats to pick up and hang onto control. The fight between Democrat John Fetterman and Republican Mehmet Oz is narrowing, and the candidates debated for the first and only time this week. Oz attempted to appease both sides on the abortion debate, but did he alienate everyone instead? And how will Fetterman's ongoing recovery from a stroke this summer sit with voters? Plus, President Joe Biden and former President Donald Trump are holding events throughout the country to advocate for their parties. Both are using scare tactics — just in time for Halloween — to persuade voters the other party has become too extreme. Is this argument more effective for Republicans or Democrats? And, is this actually a country full of political extremists? Host David Greene discusses with Mo Elleithee, executive director of Georgetown University's Institute of Politics and Public Service, on the left; and Sarah Isgur, staff writer at The Dispatch, on the right. And, special guest Kimberly Atkins Stohr, senior opinion writer at the Boston Globe, weighs in on the future of affirmative action in higher education. Atkins Stohr discusses how universities could uphold diversity if the Supreme Court strikes affirmative action down, and her recent column “Affirmative action in college admissions is at risk.” And finally, a Halloween treat of Sarah Isgur's secret skill.
Maria and Julio get into the latest with the midterms, including the Pennsylvania Senate debate between Republican candidate Mehmet Oz and Democratic candidate John Fetterman. They also talk about the mainstream media's coverage of the election, the consequences of Kanye West's antisemitic and anti-Black comments and voter intimidation efforts in Arizona. ITT Staff Picks: “It's a reflection of a larger issue: our country's persisting discomfort around disabled bodies and minds. In some ways, it's not surprising, given the fact that we continue to see so few visible examples of people with disabilities integrated into everyday life,” writes Mihir Kakara about the discourse around Democrat John Fetterman in this opinion piece for The Philadelphia Inquirer. “After years of trafficking in bigotry, Kanye West has finally been kan-celed. But at second glance, the consequences for West might be less a victory for social justice than a sign of its current limits,” writes Karen Attiah in her analysis for The Washington Post. Katie Friel and Jasleen Singh of the Brennan Center for Justice share this guide on federal and state laws addressing voter intimidation as we head into the midterm elections.

It's Friday, October 28th, A.D. 2022. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard at www.TheWorldview.com. I'm Adam McManus. By Adam McManus (Adam@TheWorldview.com) Vietnamese priest barred from flying to America A Vietnamese priest who serves veterans was banned from leaving his country while on a business trip to the United States, reports International Christian Concern. On October 24, Father Truong Hoang Vu, a Redemptorist priest, was stopped by public security officers at Tan Son Nhat International Airport in Ho Chi Minh City before his flight to Manila, Philippines, and then to the U.S. He told Radio Free America's Vietnamese service that he was temporarily banned from leaving the country at the airport due to “social order and safety reasons.” According to UCA News, the airport's public security unit considers the 45-year-old priest a threat and someone who affects national defense and security. Father Vu provides financial support for more than 6,000 disabled soldiers of former South Vietnam backed by the U.S. According to Open Doors, Vietnam is the 19th most difficult country in the world to be a Christian. Matthew 5:10 says, “Blessed are those who are persecuted for righteousness' sake, for theirs is the kingdom of Heaven.” 23-year-old man, without girlfriend, requested & approved for euthanasia Tucker Carlson called out Canada's euthanasia laws, saying the country has reached a “new and more terrifying low.” During his Wednesday night show on Fox News, the host touched on what he referred to as a “very big change in Western civilization” as Canada stands poised to legalize new standards for euthanasia in March 2023. The new laws will extend Medical Assistance in Dying, or MAiD laws, to those with mental illness after a temporary exclusion expires. Listen to Carlson's commentary. CARLSON: “So, Margaret Marsilla is a mother who lives outside Toronto, Canada. She's got a 23-year-old son, [Kiano Vafaeian], who suffers from depression and diabetes. Also, he doesn't have a girlfriend. On that basis alone, doctors have just approved her son's assisted suicide. A doctor, called Joshua Tepper, signed off on it. To kill the boy, because he's sad. He doesn't have a girlfriend. “You can read the details, and you should know, they're shocking. This is about to become a lot more common in Canada is way of cutting down on health care costs. “By March, new law in Canada is expected to allow children to be killed by doctors, by state doctors, without the approval of their parents. This seems like a very big change in western civilization.” Thankfully, before this revelation by Carlson, Kiano's doctors had retracted their approval for euthanasia after his mother initiated a social media campaign to save her son, according to a September 28th article on LifeSiteNews. It's believed that Kiano remains alive while trying to find a new doctor who will sign off on his “medically assisted” death. Biden funds drag queen shows for kids in Ecuador The Biden administration has come under fire and congressional scrutiny for a $20,000 grant awarded by the State Department to Ecuador to fund drag queen shows to “promote diversity and inclusion, ” reports LifeSiteNews.com. The project funded by the grant is to include “3 workshops,” “12 drag theater performances,” and a “2-minute documentary,” as officially stipulated by the State Department on its grant list website. The project started September 30 and will run until August 31, 2023. The program is geared toward minors in an effort to indoctrinate them in homosexual and transsexual ideology. What an export! Matthew 18:6 says, “If anyone causes one of these little ones—those who believe in Me—to stumble, it would be better for them to have a large millstone hung around their neck and to be drowned in the depths of the sea.” Fetterman's disastrous debate performance And finally, the fight for control of the U.S. Senate, which currently has 50 Democrats and 50 Republicans, is really tight. In Pennsylvania, Democrat John Fetterman had been polling ahead of Republican Dr. Mehmet Oz. Until Tuesday night's debate, reports Politico. Fetterman, who had a stroke on May 13, 2022, appeared unsteady and unprepared. Back in 2017, he had been diagnosed with atrial fibrillation, an irregular heart rhythm. At the time, his doctor got him started on medication and regular exercise. However, Fetterman admitted that he stopped taking the medication and exercising. Listen to the cringeworthy debate start. DENNIS OWENS: “Let's get started. Mr. Fetterman, we're going to begin with you. Your political experience includes serving as the mayor of Braddock, a small borough near Pittsburgh, and one term as Lieutenant Governor. You're running for a seat that could decide the balance of power in Washington. What qualifies you to be a U.S. Senator? You have 60 seconds.” FETTERMAN: “Hi. Good night, everybody. I'm running to serve Pennsylvania. He's running to use Pennsylvania.” Lisa Sylvester, the co-host of the debate, asked this question, after which Fetterman pauses for a long four seconds before responding. SYLVESTER: “Continuing with you, Mr. Fetterman, your opponent has criticized Democratic spending as you heard. Has the Biden administration overspent, and if so, where do you think spending should be cut? You have 60 seconds.” (4 second pause) FETTERMAN: “No. Here's what I think we have to fight about inflation here right now. That's what we need to fight about inflation, you know, right now because it's a tax on working families. You know. And Dr. Oz can't possibly understand what that is like. You know. He has 10 gigantic mansions. You know. He … We must push back against corporate greed. We must make sure that we're also pushing back against price gouging as well, too. You know. We also be able to make more in Pennsylvania, make more in America.” In The Worldview's final soundbite, Sylvester raised the issue that Fetterman had not paid taxes which were due. SYLVESTER: “Mr. Fetterman, I will allow a 15-second rebuttal. He has specifically said you have not paid your taxes and that you want to raise taxes on Americans. How do you respond?” FETTERMAN: “Absolutely. The Oz rule, of course. He's lying. It was helping two students 17 years ago to help them, you know, buy their own homes. They, they didn't pay the bills and it got ,er, paid and it has never been an issue in, in any of the campaign before. It was all about nonprofit.” One of the after-effects of Fetterman's stroke is the evident auditory processing disorder. Regardless of his leftist policies, he does not appear fit to be a senator.

Democrat John Fetterman and Republican Mehmet Oz faced off for the first and only time in a debate last night in Pennsylvania. Fetterman struggled with his speech throughout the night, showing the effects of the stroke he suffered about five months ago. And Oz handed Democrats an attack ad on a platter. Within hours of the debate, Fetterman's team clipped Oz's remarks on abortion and turned them into a 30-second ad spot. With very few undecided voters left in Pennsylvania, could last night's debate have changed their mind?
With the midterm elections right around the corner, we're going to break down the race for the US Senate seat from Pennsylvania. Democrat John Fetterman vs Republican Mehmet Oz. Fresh off their only debate, FOX29 Political analyst Bruce Gordon joins the podcast to discuss this hotly contested race. We also discuss the Phillies and the great run they are on.
Notwithstanding fevered warnings of “threats to democracy,” we live in a constitutional republic in which voters select representatives, not directly approve legislation. For such a system to function properly, the electorate must be able to make informed choices about their representatives. This requires campaigns and elections meant to establish their fitness to represent us. The Constitution's framers instituted a further safeguard by guaranteeing freedom of the press, expecting journalists to ensure that evidence to the contrary would be exposed. The Pennsylvania Senate debate Monday night made plain that Democrat John Fetterman, his family and partisans and the media have been dishonest about the extent to which a debilitating stroke rendered him unable to perform the duties of that office. Sadly, similar perfidy brought us Joe Biden. We cannot afford any more of such real threats to good governance in America. This is Frank Gaffney.
A well-dressed woman armed with a pickaxe goes berserk, smashing windows of a home in an upscale neighborhood - while a frightened grandmother inside took cover with a six-week old baby. And it was one of the most highly anticipated debates leading into the midterms - Republican Dr. Oz versus Democrat John Fetterman who are both vying for Pennsylvania's critical Senate seat. However, the elephant in the room was clearly Fetterman's health, as he continues to show after-effects of a stroke he suffered. Steven Fabian has the fallout. Plus, After just a few hours of deliberations, a jury has found the defendant guilty of fatally mowing down six people at a holiday parade in Waukesha, Wisconsin. The three week trial was among the most bizarre we've seen, with Darrell Brooks representing himself and being so disruptive even the judge reached her breaking point. And thanks to threats from Russian leader Vladimir Putin, Americans are more fearful of a nuclear war now, than they've been since the Cold War. And those jitters have led to a renewed interest in fallout shelters. We took a tour of one where it appears time has stopped. Ann Mercogliano tells us what we found.

The one and only debate between Pennsylvania's U.S. Senate candidates was a debacle for Democrat John Fetterman. But the post-debate coverage lauded Fetterman's "courage," downplayed his disabilities (or made them a virtue), and hammered Republican Mehmet Oz for his allegedly "heinous" remarks in favor of making abortion legislation up to the states.
We begin in Pennsylvania with a Senate race that's got huge implications for the country, and which party has power in Washington. The first and only debate between Democrat John Fetterman and Republican Mehmet Oz included fiery exchanges on abortion rights, the economy, and a range of other issues. In New York, the governor's race is surprisingly close. Democratic incumbent Kathy Hochul and her challenger, Congressman Lee Zeldin, clashed at their only debate last night, including on the topics of abortion and crime. There's a new focus on efforts to bring WNBA Superstar Brittney Griner home, after she lost an appeal of her prison sentence in Russia. Police in St. Louis say the 19-year-old who murdered two people at his former high school was carrying more than 600 rounds of ammunition for his AR-15 style rifle. The Kremlin said this morning it will continue to claim that Ukraine may be planning to use a radioactive "dirty bomb" on the battlefield. There is still no evidence at all to back up that allegation. U.S. forces and their NATO allies are conducting their own military drills this week, not that far from Ukraine.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

The results in Pennsylvania's Senate race could determine if Democrats keep control of the chamber or not, which is why last night's debate between Democrat John Fetterman and Republican Mehmet Oz was so critical.

Fossil fuels kill people. If you disrupt the flow of such fuels and damage the machinery they impel, you prevent deaths. You stop the perpetration of harm. You may destroy an inanimate object.” 6:05pm- According to an NBC News report, Ron DeSantis could become the first Republican Florida Governor to win Miami-Dade County in over 20 years—since Jeb Bush in 2002. Miami-Dade is 70% Hispanic. The Atlantic's Jemele Hill wrote of DeSantis' support within the Hispanic community: "proximity to whiteness is a real thing. Also reminds me of an adage I heard a long time ago about how the oppressed begin to take on the traits of the oppressor.” 6:15pm- On Monday, while speaking at the Democratic National Committee's headquarters in Washington D.C., President Joe Biden once again blamed Russian President Vladimir Putin for inflation and vowed to ban assault weapons. 6:30pm- Fox News pieced together a hilarious montage of President Joe Biden “berating, scolding, and insulting reporters.” 6:35pm- During a rally in Robstown, Texas on Saturday, former President Donald Trump stated he will “probably have to” run for president again in 2024. 6:50pm- Contrary to narratives being pushed by many members of the national and international media, British Prime Minister Liz Truss' resignation should not be mistaken as a reason for American politicians to avoid tax cuts in the future. The Wall Street Journal Editorial Board explains: “She is being made the scapegoat for the economic policy blunders that the ruling Conservatives have made over 12 years in power, and especially since 2019 under previous Prime Minister Boris Johnson. 6:55pm- Who Won Social Media? +Zeoli's Final Thought
The Rich Zeoli Show- Hour 1: According to the National Assessment of Educational Progress (NAEP), Pennsylvania and New Jersey student reading and math scores have decreased since 2019—indicating that pandemic school shutdowns have had an impact on childhood learning. During a recent Board of Education meeting in Lawrence Township, NJ, one member suggested that parents have no right to determine what curriculum their children will ultimately end up learning in school. According to a recent Wick Insights poll of likely voters, Republican Dr. Mehmet Oz now leads Democrat John Fetterman 49.1% to 44.6% in their race for the U.S. Senate seat being vacated by Sen. Pat Toomey (R-PA). Senator Patty Murray (D- WA) told CNN's Dana Bash that even in hindsight, she does not regret school shutdowns during the COVID-19 pandemic. According to the 2022 National Assessment of Educational Progress (NAEP), student math scores in every state have declined sharply since 2019. In a recent opinion editorial for the Wall Street Journal, Kimberley Strassel explained that Georgia's record-setting early midterm voting “exposes” the lie that election integrity laws adopted by the state would result in suppressing votes and amounted to “Jim Crow 2.0”.

With just two weeks to go until the 2022 midterm elections, all eyes are on Pennsylvania and the two nominees vying for the Senate seat, Republican celebrity doctor Mehmet Oz and Democrat John Fetterman. Whoever wins could have a huge impact on which party controls the chamber from next January. If the Republicans win it would spell disaster for President Biden's ability to enact his agenda, with potentially global implications. Democrats had hoped the Supreme Court's ruling on abortion would give them the fire power they need to get voters to turn out – but the cost of living crisis is giving their opponents the edge. Washington Correspondent Martin Wall speaks to Aideen Finnegan about the candidates and what is at stake when voters cast their ballots. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

The mid-term election is scheduled for November 8 -- about a month and a half away. Pennsylvania's races for the U.S. Senate and Governor could play a major role in the direction of the nation. Historically, the first mid-term election after a new president has been elected is dominated by the party that is not in the White House. In 2022, that means Republicans should do very well, if history is an indicator. However, at least in Pennsylvania, polls are showing Democrats in the lead in the statewide races. The latest poll from Muhlenberg College was released late last week. Dr. Christopher Borick, Professor of Political Science and Director of the Muhlenberg College School of Public Opinion appeared on Monday's Smart Talk. Democrat Josh Shapiro leads Republican Doug Mastriano 53% to 42% in the race for governor and Democrat John Fetterman has a five point lead over Republican Mehmet Oz 49% to 44% in the U.S. Senate contest. In both races though, the Republican candidates are viewed unfavorably by wide margins by those who were polled. Borick said those unfavorable numbers are sometimes hard to overcome and mentioned Mastriano in particular," I think it is harder for Senator Mastriano right now to close that gap. It is a good cycle for Republicans. Issues like inflation certainly help bouy the Republican chances. And it's going to be a lift for Republican candidates across the country. But matchups still matter. And in this particular matchup, advantage Democrats, Shapiro has pretty broad appeal in Pennsylvania, very comfortable, maybe in places like suburban Philadelphia, older voters, where somebody like John Fetterman might not be a natural fit. Josh Shapiro is every bit a natural fit and and has less, I think, weaknesses to expose. And I think Mastriano has weaknesses that have been exposed by the Shapiro campaign, a relentless series of ads that in Senator Mastriano's own words allow, I think, a framing of him as a more extreme candidate, and that's hurting his negatives." Abortion also stacks up to be a major issue in the election. Borick talked about abortion as an issue,"I went back and looked at our polling from the exact same time in the last cycle that was 2018, last midterm comparable cycle to see where abortion was. 3% of Pennsylvanians in 2018 said it's the top issue for them as they made their choice. In 2022, it's 21% -- one fifth of of the electorate. I don't think you have to to be a mind reader to guess what's happening for Pennsylvania voters. This is a post Dobbs effect in terms of issues, salience. It's a much more important issue now than it was before that decision and comparable to other cycles. And it has a big effect if you're looking for one issue that has helped energize Democrats in a cycle where they were fairly energized, if you will, relative to Republicans." The Muhlenberg poll also showed 52% of those polled disapprove of the job President Joe Biden is doing compared to 43% who approve.Support WITF: https://www.witf.org/support/give-now/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Join Jim and Greg as they welcome the news that Democrat John Fetterman will take part in a U.S. Senate debate after the media started questioning his fitness as a candidate and a possible senator. But will the late date of the debate help to protect Fetterman from a rough performance? They also hammer President Biden over his false promise to do everything possible to bring down gas prices, after the Wall Street Journal reports this administration approved the fewest acres for drilling in almost 80 years and 97 percent less land than almost every president since the end of World War II. And they discuss the disturbingly hateful reactions to Queen Elizabeth II's death, including a Carnegie Mellon professor who wished her "excruciating pain."

By a large margin, Pennsylvania voters support abortion rights according to the latest Franklin and Marshall College poll that was released today. 52% say abortion should legal under certain circumstances while 37% say it should be legal under any circumstances. 59% opposed amending the state Constitution to say there is no constitutional right to an abortion. This is the first F&M poll taken since the U.S. Supreme Court overturned Roe vs. Wade – the 1973 decision that legalized abortion nationally. It is now up to the states to decide on their own abortion laws. The poll also shows the economy is the most important issue to voters, President Joe Biden is unpopular, Democrat John Fetterman leads Republican Mehmet Oz in the U.S. Senate race and Democrat Josh Shapiro is in the lead against Republican Doug Mastriano for governor. Those are some of the findings in the poll that we discuss on Thursday's Smart Talk with Berwood Yost, Director of the Floyd Institute of Public Policy Center for Opinion Research at Franklin and Marshall College.Support WITF: https://www.witf.org/support/give-now/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

How could we not discuss the Supreme Court's evisceration of abortion rights on this week's episode of The Downballot? Co-hosts David Nir and David Beard talk about why Democratic leaders must articulate a clear plan for the election outcomes they need—specifically, a Senate majority that will reform the filibuster—and what they intend to do if voters deliver, as well as the importance of waiting for more data before we draw conclusions about what the Dobbs ruling means for November. We also dissect one early data point—a surprisingly close special election for a red House district in Nebraska—and recap several of Tuesday's key primaries. We're also joined by Pennsylvania election law attorney Adam Bonin, a longtime Daily Kos contributor who knows the ins and outs of every race in the Keystone State. Adam recounts a recent shock victory for voting rights he helped bring about at the Supreme Court; explains why a trio of state Supreme Court races all the way back in 2015 paved the way for un-gerrymandered legislative maps in 2022 and updates us on Democrat John Fetterman's campaign to flip the state's open Senate seat. https://www.dailykos.com/stories/2022/6/30/2107527/-The-Downballot-What-Dems-should-do-about-Dobbs-Pennsylvania-deep-dive-w-Adam-Bonin-transcript (Episode transcript.)
Memorial Day honors the military personnel who have died while serving in the the United States armed forces and is observed on the last Monday of May. The 3-day weekend also serves as the unofficial start of summer as many Americans begin to travel with the school year winding down and temperatures on the rise. Temperatures haven't been the only thing rising as gas prices continue to increase at record levels. Those prices, however, were not expected to deter drivers as Triple A was predicting record numbers of people to travel by car this weekend. More on gas prices from The Associated Press. The biggest story of the week came on Tuesday out of Uvalde, Texas, where a gunman stormed into Robb Elementary and killed 19 children and two teachers. It was the United States' deadliest school shooting in nearly a decade. Law enforcement officers killed the shooter, identified as 18-year-old Salvador Ramos. The massacre in Uvalde was the deadliest since December 2012, when 20 first graders and six educators were killed at Sandy Hook Elementary in Connecticut by a gunman who had just killed his mother. And for more in-depth coverage, please download our May 25th standalone episode called: Details of the Texas school shooting, deadliest since Sandy Hook. We continue to inch closer to November's midterm elections. In Pennsylvania there is a recount as just 910 votes separated the two leading candidates in the Republican primary for U.S. Senate. The tight race is between celebrity heart surgeon Dr. Mehmet Oz, who was endorsed by former President Donald Trump, and former hedge fund CEO David McCormick. The winner will take on Democrat John Fetterman in November. We have highlights from additional contests during Tuesday's latest round of primaries. In other national news, President Joe Biden signed a policing executive order on the anniversary of George Floyd's death and a panel has recommended renaming of army bases. Former President Donald Trump has been ordered to testify and census data has revealed that the nation's biggest cities have been shrinking. Besides gas prices addressed at the top of this show, the state of the economy remains a concern with overall prices at record highs. A poll revealed that support for punishing Russia for its invasion of Ukraine has decreased as concern of the economy has increased. We also look at the latest economic and unemployment reports. Several stories of note regarding the environment. There was a debate about the future of energy at the World Economic Forum. California may have new water restrictions. And scientists are predicting a busy hurricane season. Russia's invasion of Ukraine has lasted three months with no end in sight. Ukraine's president continued his plea for more support.
