The Rich Zeoli Show- Hour 4: On Thursday, SpaceX's unmanned Starship rocket exploded several minutes after taking off from its South Padre Island, Texas launchpad. SpaceX touted the next-generation rocket as being “the world's most powerful launch vehicle ever developed.” In a statement made on Twitter following the explosion, SpaceX founder Elon Musk stated, “Congrats SpaceX team on an exciting test launch of Starship! Learned a lot for next test launch in a few months.” In their Wall Street Journal editorial, John Berlau and Stone Washington document a disturbing attempt by the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau to censor speech. They write: “In a lawsuit against Townstone Financial, a small Chicago-area nonbank mortgage firm, the CFPB is signaling that it may attempt to punish anyone who complains about neighborhood crime. The CFPB accuses Townstone owner Barry Sturner and others affiliated with the company of making ‘statements that would discourage African-American prospective applicants from applying for mortgage loans.'” You can read the full editorial here: https://www.wsj.com/articles/shhh-the-cfpb-could-be-listening-townstone-crime-free-speech-chicago-brandon-johnson-mortage-48d4c260?mod=opinion_lead_pos5 While appearing on CNN's “This Morning”, White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre declined to answer questions about an IRS whistleblower who alleges the Biden Administration is inappropriately handling an investigation into Hunter Biden.
The Rich Zeoli Show- Full Episode (04/20/2023): 3:05pm- On Thursday, the House of Representatives advanced legislation that would prevent biological males from competing in women's sports. Ari Blaff of National Review writes, “[t]he House measure seeks to amend federal law so that ‘sex shall be recognized based solely on a person's reproductive biology and genetics at birth,' in order to determine Title IX athletics compliance. Title IX mandates that institutions that receive public funding from the federal government cannot discriminate on the basis of sex.” The bill passed along partisan lines—"with 219 Republicans voting in favor and 203 Democrats voting against.” You can read more here: https://www.nationalreview.com/news/zero-house-democrats-vote-to-protect-womens-sports-from-male-intrusion/ 3:10pm- While appearing on Real Time with Bill Maher, Rep. Katie Porter (D-CA) baselessly accused NCAA swimming champion Riley Gaines—who advocate for the rights of biologically female athletes—of simply speaking out for “likes and clicks.” 3:30pm- Henry gets cancelled for drinking English breakfast tea. 3:35pm- On Tuesday, high school volleyball player Payton McNabb spoke to the North Carolina legislature and documented the extensive injuries she suffered while competing against a biological male. After being struck by a volleyball spiked by the male competitor, McNabb suffered a concussion and neck injuries and is still dealing with impaired vision and partial paralysis. 3:45pm- If you were a single woman, which profession would you find more attractive? New York City Rat Czar or Pentagon UFO Czar? Rich, Matt, and Henry debate—listeners weigh-in. 4:05pm- On Wednesday, Speaker of the House Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) unveiled the “Limit, Save, Grow Act of 2023”—a 320-page bill that would raise the debt ceiling while concurrently cutting federal spending. According to The Washington Post's Tony Romm, the proposed legislation is estimated to “save the government $4.5 trillion over the next decade” including “$130 billion in spending cuts for 2024.” The bill would also create “new work requirements for welfare” and “block [President Joe] Biden's forthcoming program to cancel thousands of dollars in college debt.” Unsurprisingly, President Biden has already expressed opposition to Speaker McCarthy's proposal. You can read more about the legislation here: https://www.washingtonpost.com/business/2023/04/19/debt-ceiling-limit-republican-plan-explained/ 4:30pm- Is New York City coming for you cheeseburgers? While speaking with members of the press, “Mayor Eric Adams on Monday vowed to reduce emissions tied to city food procurements by 33 percent by 2030, unveiling data showing that in New York City, food consumption rivals transportation as a source of planet-warming gases,” according to Dana Rubinstein of The New York Times. You can read the full article here: https://www.nytimes.com/2023/04/17/nyregion/eric-adams-meat-emissions-nyc.html 4:45pm- Rich learns about the smelly, psychotic, and murderous founder of Earth Day! 4:55pm- Last month, The Wall Street Journal Editorial Board documented a “strange house call” the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) made to independent journalist Matt Taibbi's home—unannounced “the same day Mr. Taibbi testified before the Select Subcommittee on the Weaponization of the Federal Government.” The WSJ Editorial Board writes, “[t]he taxman left a note instructing Mr. Taibbi to call the IRS four days later. Mr. Taibbi was told in a call with the agent that both his 2018 and 2021 tax returns had been rejected…the curious timing of this visit, on the heels of the FTC demand that Twitter turn over names of journalists, raises questions about potential intimidation.” On Wednesday, Sen. Ron Johnson (R-WI) confronted IRS Commissioner Daniel Werfel about the aforementioned “visit” during a hearing on Capitol Hill. And on Thursday former-President Donald Trump released a video to social media condemning how Taibbi has been treated by the IRS.

Ryan Barber write, “[a]n IRS supervisor has told lawmakers he has information that suggests the Biden administration is improperly handling the criminal investigation into President Biden's son, Hunter Biden, and is seeking whistleblower protections… The supervisor has details that show ‘preferential treatment and politics improperly infecting decisions and protocols that would normally be followed by career law enforcement professionals in similar circumstances if the subject were not politically connected.'” You can read the full article here: https://www.wsj.com/articles/irs-whistleblower-says-u-s-is-mishandling-hunter-biden-probe-7cd127f2?mod=hp_lead_pos7 5:05pm- While appearing on Fox News with Sean Hannity, Rep.

Buttigieg for using “female dummies” for car crash tests. 5:20pm- The Mystery Movie Clip! 5:25pm- While speaking with a local television station, Chicago Mayor-elect Brandon Johnson refused to condemn looters and rioters whose actions on Saturday night resulted in enormous amounts of damage and left several people injured. 5:50pm- On Tuesday evening, conservative commentator Matt Walsh had his phone, Twitter, and emails infiltrated by a hacker.

The Basilica of Saint Mary hosted a lecture with John Berlau titled “George Washington: Champion of Religious Liberty” on February 9, 2021. Throughout his life of public service, George Washington promoted freedom for Catholics, Jews and other religious minorities. Even though he was not Catholic, Washington made a financial contribution towards the establishment of our parish at the request of his friend and aide-de-camp Colonel John Fitzgerald. In a recent piece in National Review, Berlau wrote that the Basilica of Saint Mary is a “monument to Washington’s vision of religious freedom.” Berlau is the author of the new book George Washington, Entrepreneur. Founded in 1795, the Basilica of Saint Mary in Old Town Alexandria is the first Catholic parish established in Virginia. Pope Francis named the church a minor basilica on December 6, 2017 due to its important role in the growth of the Catholic Church in North America.

INTERVIEW - JOHN BERLAU - senior fellow at the Competitive Enterprise Institute, a member of the Federalist Society Regulatory Transparency Project (RTP) and author of "George Washington, Entrepreneur: How Our Founding Father's Private Business Pursuits Changed America and the World" TOPIC: Discuss the GameStop Stock Market Drama GameStop, AMC shares surge after Reddit users lead chaotic revolt against big Wall Street funds Users on online trading communities are claiming victory for wrecking costly hedge fund gambles those stock prices would fall Shares of video game retailer GameStop and movie theater giant AMC Entertainment soared to astronomical levels Wednesday as an apparent swarm of ordinary investors, spurred on by a Reddit message board, took on big Wall Street funds that had bet the stock prices would fall. GameStop shares more than doubled, to $347.51, and have soared more than 400 percent this week. AMC, beleaguered by the coronavirus pandemic and stay-at-home measures, quadrupled to $19.90 a share. The GameStop and AMC price surges were so dramatic that trading for both companies was temporarily halted by the stock exchanges to temper volatility. But once trading resumed, prices took off again. TD Ameritrade, a leading trading platform, took the unusual step of imposing restrictions on both stocks, citing “an abundance of caution amid unprecedented market conditions.” The extraordinary trading, which many analysts linked to a pandemic-related surge in day trading by average investors, seemed disconnected from the companies’ financial prospects. GameStop, which sells video game software via a network of bricks-and-mortar retail outlets, has lost money in five of the past six quarters. Revenue in the three-month period that ended in October was down 30 percent from the same period one year earlier. As officials at the White House and Federal Reserve avoided detailed comment, there were signs that market watchdogs at the Securities and Exchange Commission will scrutinize the unusual trading. Federal securities law prohibits market participants from misrepresenting a company’s prospects to artificially affect its share price. With Reddit users cloaked in anonymity, there is no way of knowing whether messages touting GameStop come from average Joes — or scam artists executing a “pump-and-dump” stock scheme. REGULATORS BEGIN TO SPIN UP... BLOOMBERG: SEC ‘Monitoring’ GameStop Frenzy as Warren Pressures Regulators The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission said it is “actively monitoring” volatility in options and equities markets amid a surge in GameStop Corp. and other companies over the past week that prompted Democratic Senator Elizabeth Warren to demand action from regulators. “Consistent with our mission to protect investors and maintain fair, orderly, and efficient markets, we are working with our fellow regulators to assess the situation and review the activities of regulated entities, financial intermediaries, and other market participants,” the SEC said in a statement Wednesday.

As we round the 4th of July holiday, we've all celebrated George Washington as the first President of the United States, the general who lead the Continental Army against the British, and the second or third most popular character in the Broadway play "Hamilton."
