The Franklin Fire in Malibu, California, has burned over 3,000 acres and is zero percent contained. The rapidly spreading fire has prompted mandatory evacuation orders. It has destroyed several homes, and some areas are experiencing a loss of electricity, cell service, and internet connectivity. Investigators are probing the possible motive behind Luigi Mangione's alleged killing of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson. Mangione had previously shared on Twitter about his having back problems and the topic of spinal surgery, but any connection to the crime remains unclear. His attorney is citing a lack of evidence and maintaining Mangione's innocence as the suspect fights extradition from Pennsylvania to New York. NTD speaks with Jason Johnson, a former police executive, to hear his thoughts about determining a motive behind the attack. The Biden administration said it would recognize and support a new Syrian government—provided that it renounces terrorism, destroys chemical weapons stockpiles, and protects the rights of minorities and women. NTD speaks with Kervin Aucoin, a former lead ISR coordinator for the U.S. Army in Europe, who explains the transition of power to a new government. Meanwhile, Israel launched airstrikes in Syria to destroy ISIS targets and moved its troops into a buffer zone within the country. ⭕️ Watch in-depth videos based on Truth & Tradition at Epoch TV

The Rich Zeoli Show- Full Episode (11/22/2024): 3:05pm- On Thursday, former Congressman Matt Gaetz announced he is withdrawing as Donald Trump's nominee to serve as U.S. Attorney General. According to reports, Gaetz concluded he had no pathway towards confirmation after meeting with Senators earlier in the week and determining that at least four—Susan Collins, Lisa Murkowski, Mitch McConnell, and John Curtis—would not support him. Republicans will hold a 53 to 47 advantage in the Senate, consequently cabinet nominees cannot afford to lose the support of more than four Republicans. Later that day, Trump selected former Attorney General of Florida Pam Bondi to serve as Attorney General of the United States. 3:15pm- The Police Report About Pete Hegseth's Alleged Sexual Assault Vindicates Him Of Criminality. Eddie Scarry of The Federalist writes: “What you're going to hear now and in the coming days from the national media is that there are “graphic” details in a police report related to an alleged sexual assault involving Pete Hegseth, President-elect Donald Trump's incoming nominee for Defense secretary. It's certainly graphic, but the media will bet you won't bother reading the report, which in reality looks really bad for the alleged victim and effectively clears Hegseth of criminality.” You can read the full article here: https://thefederalist.com/2024/11/21/the-police-report-about-pete-hegseths-alleged-sexual-assault-vindicates-him-of-criminality/ 3:30pm- Did Jaguar Just “Bud Light” Itself?

Kennedy Jr. to convince Donald to cut back on fast food! 4:30pm- Dr. Victoria Coates—Former Deputy National Security Advisor & the Vice President of the Davis Institute for National Security and Foreign Policy at The Heritage Foundation—joins The Rich Zeoli Show to discuss the sudden escalation in the war between Russia and Ukraine.
