The Rich Zeoli Show- Hour 4: Representatives Matt Gaetz (R-FL), Matt Rosendale (R-MT), Nancy Mace (R-SC), Bob Good (R-VA), Eli Crane (R-AZ), Tim Burchett (R-TN), Ken Buck (R-CO) and Andy Biggs (R-AZ) joined Democrats in a vote to remove Kevin McCarthy as Speaker of the House—the first time a speakership has been terminated on a no-confidence vote. According to reports, House Republicans will hold a closed-door meeting at 6:30pm to determine what steps to take next. Could ousted speaker Kevin McCarthy reclaim the position by cutting a deal with Democrats? According to reporting from Carl Hulse and Luke Broadwater of The New York Times, “Democrats have been strategizing internally about what concessions they might be able to extract from Mr. McCarthy in exchange for saving him from Mr. Gaetz and his allies. Democrats are eager to see Mr. McCarthy commit to more funding for Ukraine, award more federal projects in Democrats' districts and honor the deal on spending levels he reached this year with Mr. Biden, according to people familiar with the discussions. All would draw a backlash from Republicans. Some Democrats have also floated ideas that seem less likely to be acted upon, such as demanding co-chairs for committees, removing right-wing Republicans from the Rules Committee and even obtaining a promise that the G.O.P. campaign committees will not spend money to defeat politically vulnerable Democrats.” You can read the full article here: https://www.nytimes.com/2023/10/02/us/politics/democrats-mccarthy-speaker.html Rich is joined by 1210 WPHT producers Anthony and Dan who are at Citizen Bank Park ahead of tonight's round 1 playoff matchup between the Philadelphia Phillies and Miami Marlins.  

The Rich Zeoli Show- Full Episode (10/03/2023): 3:05pm- On Monday, Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-FL) brought up a resolution to vacate the House speaker position. On Tuesday, Speaker of the House Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) held a vote to table the motion but was ultimately defeated—208 to 218. Consequently, the House of Representatives will now hold a vote potentially resulting in the removal of McCarthy from the speakership. 3:20pm- From the House floor, Rep. Thomas Massie (R-KY) spoke in defense of Kevin McCarthy's performance as speaker and insisted that removing him would be a “terrible idea” for Republicans. 3:30pm- While appearing on Face the Nation with Margaret Brennan, Speaker of the House Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) insisted that he would survive any challenge to his speakership. 3:45pm- Appearing on State of the Union with Jake Tapper, Rep. Alexandria Ocasio Cortez said she would “absolutely” vote to remove Kevin McCarthy as Speaker of the House. 4:05pm- Could Kevin McCarthy cut a deal with Democrats in order to save his speakership? According to reporting from Carl Hulse and Luke Broadwater of The New York Times, “Democrats have been strategizing internally about what concessions they might be able to extract from Mr. McCarthy in exchange for saving him from Mr. Gaetz and his allies. Democrats are eager to see Mr. McCarthy commit to more funding for Ukraine, award more federal projects in Democrats' districts and honor the deal on spending levels he reached this year with Mr. Biden, according to people familiar with the discussions.

Engoron placed a gag order on Donald Trump. According to Jonah E. Bromwich of The New York Times, the order arose because Trump mocked a court clerk on social media on Monday. He explains Trump mocked “the clerk, Allison Greenfield, shortly before noon on his Truth Social site. His post was a picture of Ms. Greenfield with Senator Chuck Schumer, the Democratic majority leader. Mr. Trump mocked Ms. Greenfield as ‘Schumer's girlfriend' and said that the case against him should be dismissed.” Is this a violation of Trump's free speech rights?

The House battle over leadership conflict rages as Rep. Matt Gaetz (FL-1) seeks to oust Speaker of the House Kevin McCarthy (CA-20). Does Congress have the votes from House Republicans and Democrats to force this move? This political showdown comes from some conservatives' anger over McCarthy's willingness to make deals with Democrats on the Continuing Resolution, such as the recent spending bill that almost led to a government shutdown. Is this in-House fighting good for our country just before a presidential election? On today's show, the Sekulow team discusses the need for swift conflict resolution in the House, former President Donald Trump's civil case trial in New York City, including puzzling antics from the judge, and the latest news with President Joe Biden and his son Hunter.

If you've been following the news out of Congress recently, you've probably been focusing on the narrowly averted government shutdown and the indictment of Democratic Senator Bob Menendez—and, perhaps, the House Republicans' decision to begin an impeachment inquiry against President Biden. But there have also been some notable updates when it comes to the continuing fallout from Jan. 6. Recently, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit unsealed an opinion limiting the ability of the special counsel's office to access phone records from Rep. Scott Perry under the Speech and Debate Clause. Meanwhile, Trump's onetime advisor Peter Navarro was finally convicted of contempt of Congress for defying the Jan. 6 committee. Lawfare Senior Editors Quinta Jurecic and Molly Reynolds sat down with two of our favorite guests to call when there's news about Congress and the law: Mike Stern, former Senior Counsel to the House of Representatives, and Eric Columbus, who recently served as Special Litigation Counsel in the House Office of General Counsel. They discussed Perry, Navarro, how exactly one should define an impeachment inquiry, and, of course, the Menendez indictment.Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/lawfare. Hosted on Acast.

Speaker McCarthy, unable to marshal his conference, relied on Democrats to fund the federal government for another 45 days. The deal puts his job in jeopardy and kicks the can down the road as House Republicans will still need to reach party consensus on government spending and aid to Ukraine in order to pass comprehensive government funding bills next month.This episode: White House reporter Deepa Shivaram, political correspondent Susan Davis, and national political correspondent Mara Liasson.The podcast is produced by Casey Morell and Elena Moore.

After weeks of anticipating a government shutdown, the House and Senate were able to avert it — passing a last-minute spending bill that funds the government until November 17th. However, questions remain about whether lawmakers can reach a consensus on next year's spending by this deadline, especially as several hardliners in Washington strongly disagree on Ukraine funding. With the shutdown out of the way for now, House Republicans are focusing on their impeachment inquiry into President Biden. A hearing was held last Thursday…with Republicans saying they have evidence to back an impeachment. Democrats said no, they don't. On the Rundown, House Ways and Means Committee Chairman Jason Smith (R-MO) discusses how House Republicans plan to act wisely so a government shutdown is not a threat come November 17th. He also explains why there is talk of House Speaker Kevin McCarthy's leadership role being in jeopardy despite his success in avoiding a shutdown and how House Republicans are “following the facts” as they investigate the President. Federal student loan repayments resume this month for millions of Americans after being paused during the COVID-19 pandemic. After the three-year-long pause, many borrowers fear that they won't be able to make their monthly payments due to high inflation and an elevated cost of living. Earlier this year, President Joe Biden announced a year-long grace period waving the penalties for missed payments as a way to ease the burden. Senior Editor for CNET Money, Nick Wolny, joins the Rundown to break down the benefits of the Biden administration's SAVE Plan, how people are relying too much on their credit cards, and what you can do to avoid common student loan-related scams.

Hunter Biden is due in court this week on federal gun charges after becoming the first child of a sitting president to be charged by the Justice Department. Separately, House Republicans held their first public hearing last week in the impeachment inquiry into his father - President Joe Biden – despite failing to show any evidence that the president himself received foreign money. There can be a lot to keep track of, so: what are the facts, and what is just political posturing? In today's episode, we examine the long legal saga of Hunter Biden and how it could impact the 2024 presidential race.

U.S. House Republicans launched the first impeachment inquiry Thursday into President Joe Biden, who faces an array of allegations around bribery and financial impropriety related to personal business dealings spearheaded by his son, Hunter Biden. Republicans say they have significant evidence to back allegations that Hunter Biden received more than $20 million from several overseas entities in China, Ukraine, Russia and more. Hunter also faces gun and tax-related legal difficulties. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/america-in-focus/support

House Republicans fail to pass a bill to fund the government, driving us closer towards a government shutdown; The longest serving woman in the Senate, Dianne Feinstein, passes away at the age of 90; And Elder David A. Bednar joins Boyd for a conversation on technology, making connections, and other principles following his Q&A session at the Silicon Slopes Summit. 

SEASON 2 EPISODE 45: COUNTDOWN WITH KEITH OLBERMANN A-Block (1:44) SPECIAL COMMENT: "Join the ultimate strike against the globalist class," Trump shouted at his crowd in Michigan. And of course that is a double dogwhistle because to antisemites like Trump, "Globalist" means Jews, but also has a CLEAN meaning: dealing with the interconnections of the modern world, internationally. And he got away with “strike” there because he was nominally addressing the labor action by the United Auto Workers. Of course if you think he was telling his cult of thugs to take labor action against those dealing with the interconnections of the modern world, congratulations on awakening from your nine-year coma. Trump began to covertly attack Jewish people as soon as his presidential campaign began, he threatened globalists at the United Nations, this is nothing new. But the use of the term “ultimate strike” should set off any remaining alarm bells that have not been ringing continuously all this time. This is not a complicated calculation: if Trump determined that he could get elected by beginning a full-fledged attack on Jewish people, Jewish influence, he'd do it. When we speak of him as having the soul of a mass murderer, that's what we mean. People do not have any actual VALUE to him. Re-enact the holocaust in whole or in part? To get re-elected? To stay out of jail? Of course he'd do that. And to any group you could name. If he became convinced that he could regain the White House by rounding up and killing all the… left-handed people, he'd do it. There is also more to the attack on the news media for "country-threatening treason." The former editor of The Washington Post confirms are worst fears. When Trump and Kushner demanded they meet to discuss how they could 'make it up' to Trump for reporting on Russia, the executives went as summoned, and negotiated. There is the danger in how the media has treated Trump and will treat him: it's all a negotiation for him, and it's all a negotiation for them. Speaking of which, Melania has reportedly re-done her pre-nup. Which Tee Box did she get in the new deal? And as House Republicans prepare to sack Kevin McCarthy and replace him with Tom Emmer, who best represented their hilarious 'Impeachment Inquiry' launch? Jonathan Turkey saying he didn't see any evidence worthy of an impeachment? Or Congressman Chuck Edwards, who couldn't pronounce any of the names or words in the sentence they gave him to read - particularly: "Oligarch." B-Block (25:22) THE WORST PERSONS IN THE WORLD: Stew Peters and guest demand execution of Taylor Swift and Travis Kielce for vaccine advocacy. Hey, Matt Gaetz? Why the long face? And Curt Schilling - Scumbag - reveals a former teammate is fighting cancer even though the former teammate wanted to keep it private.

C-Block (46:17) THINGS I PROMISED NOT TO TELL, PART 2: Stevie makes her cameo.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

House Republicans hold their first hearing in the impeachment inquiry of President Joe Biden, with the Oversight Committee Chair saying they have “a mountain of evidence” that will show that the President Biden “abused his public office for his family's financial gain” through son Hunter Biden's overseas business dealings. President Biden dedicates a new library in Tempe, Arizona to the late Sen. John McCain… who was a close friend even when a political foe, and the President warns about what he says is the threat to democratic values posed by Donald Trump and the MAGA republican movement. Not much changing in on the federal government funding front. Senate still moving ahead on a bipartisan 45 day funding bill to prevent a government shutdown starting Sunday, and the House Republican majority still plans to vote on their own, different version of a short-term spending bill on Friday, while continuing in the meantime to work on full fiscal year spending bills. Hawaii energy company officials testify before a U.S. House committee about cause of the deadly and destructive wildfires in Maui and whether they could have been prevented or at least the damage minimized.

A House Republican bill to prevent a government shutdown is voted down in the House when 21 House Republicans vote 'no'. They instead want to pass all the regular government spending bills and negotiate with the Senate and White House on that, and a leader of the group, Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-FL), spoke out against the border security language added to the bill, saying it was not tough enough on illegal immigration.  But time is short. The deadline to keep the government operating is midnight Sunday, October 1, the new fiscal year. Sen. Dianne Feinstein (D-CA) has died at the age of 90. She was the longest-serving female Senator ever. Tributes are coming from both Democrats and Republicans..  Outgoing Chair of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, Gen. Mark Milley, said at his retirement ceremony that the U.S. military owes its loyalty to the Constitution, not to a "wannabe dictator" in apparent reference to former President Donald Trump with whom he has had public disagreements, even to the point that Donald Trump suggested that some of Gen. Milley's actions would, in earlier times, be punishable by death. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Today's Headlines: The urgency to prevent a government shutdown starting tomorrow is increasing as House Speaker Kevin McCarthy failed to propose a new 2024 budget or a plan to delay the shutdown, and he declined to call for a vote on the Senate's legislation to fund the government through November 17th. Meanwhile, Representative Matt Gaetz is considering the possibility of calling for a vote to remove McCarthy from the speakership, although it's seen as unlikely to succeed. President Biden faced an impeachment hearing led by House Republicans, during which subpoenas for his and his family's personal and bank records were announced, though witnesses testified there wasn't sufficient evidence for impeachment. President Biden also announced federal funding to create a library and community facility in honor of Senator John McCain, while criticizing MAGA extremism. An appeals court denied Donald Trump's request to delay his civil fraud trial, which is set to begin soon, involving allegations of exaggerating his net worth. Lastly, a Louisiana appeals court overturned a lower court ruling regarding the state's electoral map, which had raised concerns about Voting Rights Act violations and representation disparities.
