Here are 3 big things you need to know—   One — President Trump has taken his first actions of his second term in the White House. Trump signed nine executive orders to cheers from his supporters in front of a sold-out crowd at the Capital One Arena in Washington, DC.  He rescinding almost 80 of former President Biden's executive actions, and signed orders that included a regulatory freeze, one that requires federal workers back in office five days a week, and a withdraw from the Paris Climate Treaty.     Two ---- The U.S. Senate has passed the Laken Riley Act.  It now moves to the House after garnering 64 votes in the upper chamber.   The bill is aimed at expanding the federal government's mandate to detain immigrants who are in the country illegally. The Laken Riley Act is named after a Georgia nursing school student who was murdered last year by an illegal immigrant.   And number three —   The Senate Armed Services Committee has voted to send Pete Hegseth's nomination to be defense secretary to the Senate floor.  All 14 Republicans voted in favor of Hegseth, while all 13 Democrats voted against.  The nomination now moves to the full Senate. If all Republicans vote “yes,” Hegseth will be the nation's next Defense Secretary.

De volta à Casa Branca depois de uma vitória incontestável nas urnas, Donald Trump adotou uma lógica nova para montar o time do primeiro escalão de seu governo: independentemente da qualificação técnica, os critérios principais são lealdade total ao presidente e completo alinhamento ideológico. Outro aspecto em comum entre pelo menos seis dos indicados pelo presidente americano é o fato de serem bilionários. O mais conhecido deles é Elon Musk, homem mais rico do mundo, dono da Tesla, SpaceX e a rede social X, que irá assumir o recém-criado departamento de eficiência. A ala ideologicamente mais radical terá representantes nos departamentos de Saúde (com Robert Kennedy Jr., que há anos lidera movimentos antivacinação), de Educação (com Linda McMahon, defensora do homeschooling) e de Defesa (com Pete Hegseth, envolvido em escândalos sexuais). Alguns quadros fortes do partido republicano também ganharam espaço, caso de Marco Rubio, que assume o principal cargo das Relações Exteriores americanas – ele tem histórico anti-China e já criticou diversos governos de esquerda da América Latina. Para analisar nome a nome as indicações de Donald Trump para o gabinete que toma posse nesta segunda-feira (20), Julia Duailibi entrevista Mauricio Moura, professor da Universidade George Washington, nos Estados Unidos.

Kansas GOP Senator Roger Marshall praised Defense secretary nominee Pete Hegseth as “steady as a rock through” his confirmation hearing, and predicted that there would be maybe “one or two dissenting votes” but the Senate would approve his nomination.

Mark Mitchell of Rasmussen Reports says America is entering a new era. The woke policies and actions of the left will no longer be a thing. The whole gender pronouns, women in men sports, kid deciding what gender they will be before they even hit puberty — all of it, is over. And Trump Cabinet Senate confirmation hearings are underway in the Senate. Leading off for the picks, was Pete Hegseth for The Secretary of Defense and things are not going well for the Dems and their tainted line of questioning.

A handful of President-elect Trump's cabinet nominees are facing questions from Senators on Capitol Hill. Though it appears some picks like Secretary of State nominee Senator Marco Rubio (R-FL) and CIA Director nominee John Ratcliffe will face smooth confirmations, it could be more challenging for those like Department of Health and Human Services nominee Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and Secretary of Defense nominee Pete Hegseth — who had his hearing last Tuesday. FOX News Senior Congressional Correspondent Chad Pergram discusses the hearings that have taken place thus far and which ones to watch out for. In a matter of hours, President-elect Trump will be inaugurated as the 47th President of the United States. As he returns to the White House, many Americans will watch to see which issues the incoming President will prioritize during his first weeks in office — including whether he'll reverse recent executive orders issued by President Biden. FOX News Radio Political Analyst Josh Kraushaar and FOX News Radio Washington DC Correspondent Jared Halpern weigh in on the logistics of this presidential transition, President Biden's legacy, and what to expect from a second Trump Administration.

The Rich Zeoli Show- Full Episode (01/17/2025): 3:05pm- The United States Supreme Court released an unsigned 20-page opinion in TikTok, Inc. v. Garland and determined that the federal government can ban a social media application owned by a foreign country designated as a foreign adversary. The ban could occur as soon as Sunday, January 19th—though the Biden Administration has stated they will not enforce the ban and will leave the decision up to the incoming Trump Administration. According to reports, Donald Trump—who will be sworn in on the 20th—is looking to save the app, potentially via an executive order or a partial sale of the company. Trump, according to The Washington Post, is also considering adopting “Project Texas” which would provide the U.S. government with a “kill switch” for TikTok should the app violate norms. 3:30pm- On Friday, Donald Trump's Homeland Security Secretary nominee Kristi Noem testified before the Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee. During the hearing, Noem emphasized that the U.S. Southern border is not secure and that, under her leadership, she would work to find the 300,000 undocumented migrant children that have gone missing during the Biden Administration. 3:40pm- Matt argues that, if confirmed, Pete Hegseth would become the most handsome Secretary of Defense in U.S. history! He's certainly better looking than Henry Knox, for example…right? 4:05pm- On Friday, the United States Supreme Court released an unsigned 20-page opinion in TikTok, Inc. v. Garland which will allow for the federal government to create a nation-wide TikTok ban. Should the ban take effect, the social media application will no longer be available in Apple or Android stores—though, users who already have the app on their phone will be able to access the platform. Interestingly, without updates the app's performance and security features will degrade over time—making it especially susceptible to hacks. Isn't the ban supposed to prevent a nefarious actor from gaining access to sensitive personal data? 4:30pm- Linda Kerns—Attorney & Pennsylvania Election Integrity Counsel for the Republican National Committee—joins The Rich Zeoli Show to preview Monday's inauguration! Why is it being moved indoors? You can find Kerns at: www.lindakernslaw.com. 5:00pm- Dr. Wilfred Reilly—Professor of Political Science at Kentucky State University & Author of “Lies My Liberal Teacher Told Me”—joins The Rich Zeoli Show to discuss Inauguration Day, his decision to develop an anti-DEI consulting firm, and a New York Times article documenting a woman's romantic relationship with ChatGPT! 5:35pm- 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 and reacts to the ceasefire agreement between Israel and Hamas. Dr. Coates is author of the book: “The Battle for the Jewish State: How Israel—and America—Can Win” which features a forward from Senator Ted Cruz. You can find the book here: https://a.co/d/iTMA4Vb. 6:05pm- While appearing on Stephen Colbert's late night show, Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen discussed her experience with magic mushrooms during a recent visit to China. 6:10pm- Why can't President Biden pronounce “Ozempic”? 6:30pm- REPLAY: On Friday, the United States Supreme Court released an unsigned 20-page opinion in TikTok, Inc. v. Garland which will allow for the federal government to create a nation-wide TikTok ban. Should the ban take effect, the social media application will no longer be available in Apple or Android stores—though, users who already have the app on their phone will be able to access the platform.

Journalist and author Juan Williams joins Margaret Hoover to talk about civil rights in America as the nation prepares to inaugurate Donald Trump as president on Martin Luther King Jr. Day. Williams, who wrote the companion book to the 1987 PBS documentary series Eyes on the Prize, discusses his latest book, New Prize for These Eyes, which charts the progress of what he calls the second civil rights movement in the 21st century. Williams details how civil rights activism has changed in the Black Lives Matter era, explains why he considers Barack Obama one of the country's most misunderstood presidents, and reflects on the challenges faced by a decentralized movement that lacks prominent leaders like Dr. King. The Fox News senior political analyst assesses his role in right-wing media and comments on Trump's selection of Fox colleagues like Pete Hegseth to serve in his Cabinet. He also addresses the rollback of diversity efforts in corporate America and the prospects for a third civil rights movement in the future. Support for “Firing Line for Margaret Hoover” is provided by Robert Granieri, Vanessa and Henry Cornell, The Fairweather Foundation, Peter and Mark Kalikow, The Asness Family Foundation, Charles R. Schwab, Damon Button, Craig Newmark Philanthropies, Phillip I. Kent, and Al and Kathy Hubbard. Corporate funding is provided by Stephens Inc.

Happy Friday! Sam and Emma speak with Heather Digby Parton, contributing writer at Salon.com and proprietor of the blog Hullabaloo, to round up the week in news. First, Sam and Emma run through updates on the Supreme Court's affirmation of the TikTok ban, Biden and Trump's following denunciations of said ban, Israel's ceasefire sabotage, Trump's cabinet nominees, medicare drug price negotiations, and Mike Johnson's enforcement of the Trump regime, before watching Bernie push Trump treasury pick Bessent on why he doesn't think working people deserve fair wages. Digby then joins, as she, Sam, and Emma dive right into the devastating wildfires continuing to ravage LA, and the right's immediate push to politicize the event for all of their culture war BS, targeting Newsome, Bass, and DEI, before shifting to the greater absurdity of blaming people for failing to deal with an issue (climate change) that you refuse even to acknowledge. Expanding on this latter element, Digby tackles how LA is already being set up for Big Tech disaster capitalists to swoop in, diving deep into the setup of Trump's uber-oligarchy, what Big Tech wants from the relationship, and what makes them distinct from both contemporary and historical oligarch comparisons, wrapping up the show by waxing on the horrors of a Polymarket populist future. And in the Fun Half: Sam and Emma take some highlights from the hearings for Trump's Administrative nominees, including Bessent's abject fear of taxing the wealthy, Russell Vought's attempt to shirk the “has repeatedly fantasized about terrorizing bureaucratic agents” accusations, and Hegseth's utter embarrassment in the face of Elizabeth Warren. They also unpack right-wing reactionaries' attempt to pin California's forest fires on those damn meth-smoking homeless people in urban Los Angeles, plus, your calls and IMs!

The Rich Zeoli Show- Full Episode (01/16/2025): 3:05pm- On Wednesday night, President Joe Biden delivered a farewell address from the Oval Office where he warned Americans of a developing “oligarchy” within big tech—claiming that Meta and X are allowing for the dissemination of disinformation by not actively censoring speech. Biden cited President Dwight Eisenhower's famous warning about the dangers of the military-industrial complex and explained that big tech presented a similar, modern-day challenge to Americans. 3:15- While appearing on Joe Rogan's podcast, Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg defended his decision to end censorship on Facebook, citing previous editorial errors and a desire to restore free speech online. Zuckerberg revealed that the Biden Administration pressured his platforms to censor certain posts regarding COVID-19 vaccine side effects. While Rich is glad Zuckerberg and Meta are backing away from censorship, he refuses to believe the decision was made for anything other than political reasons. 3:20pm- Last week, the United States Supreme Court heard oral argument in TikTok, Inc. v. Garland—which will determine whether or not the federal government can ban an application owned by a foreign country designated as a foreign adversary. The potential ban could occur as soon as Sunday, January 19th. According to reports, Donald Trump—who will be sworn in on the 20th—is looking to save the app, potentially via an executive order or a partial sale of the company. Trump, according to The Washington Post, is also considering adopting “Project Texas” which would provide the U.S. government with a “kill switch” for TikTok should the app violate norms. 3:30pm- What president would you want to have a beer with? PLUS, have you ever heard audio of Lyndon Baines Johnson ordering a pair of slacks? 3:40pm- Speaking with The Washington Post, First Lady Jill Biden revealed that she was disappointed in Nancy Pelosi for her actions that led to Joe Biden being replaced as the Democrat Party's presidential nominee. She explained, “we were friends for 50-years.” 4:05pm- Jack Carr—#1 New York Times Best Selling Author of “The Terminal List”—joins The Rich Zeoli Show to discuss Secretary of Defense nominee Pete Hegseth's Senate confirmation hearing. PLUS, Carr talks about his soon-to-be-released book: “Cry Havok.” 4:30pm- Justin Goodman—Senior Vice President of Advocacy and Public Policy for the White Coat Waste Project—joins The Rich Zeoli Show to discuss a new article his organization co-authored with Congresswoman Nicole Malliotakis, “Here's how Trump 2.0 can cut $20 billion in spending, wipe out Fauci's leftover bloat—and save animals.” Is the government using taxpayer dollars to fund experiments involving monkeys doing drugs and gambling???

Meanwhile, Lee Zeldin—nominated to serve as Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) administrator—told the Senate Environment and Public Works Committee that China is an adversary and isn't necessarily the best nation to partner with regarding “clean energy.” 5:15pm- During his confirmation hearing before the Senate Finance Committee, Treasury Secretary nominee Scott Bessent emphasized that the United States may be in an energy race with China—but it's completely false to suggest China prioritizes clean energy. During one notable exchange, Bessent used statistics to destroy Sen. Michael Bennet's claim that the 2017 Trump Administration tax cuts only benefited the wealthy. 5:30pm- While speaking with Politico, Sen. John Curtis (R-UT) said Director of National Intelligence nominee Tulsi Gabbard has ...
