California's new year begins with a “new” version of Gov. Gavin Newsom – offering Sacramento lawmakers a detailed and in-person State of the State Address, as opposed to recent years when the governor eschewed such pageantry. Hoover senior fellow Lee Ohanian and distinguished policy fellow Bill Whalen, both contributors to Hoover's California on Your Mind web channel, discuss Newsom's “rosy” vision of California versus the realities of chronic homelessness, a lack of affordable housing, slow-track high-speed-rail construction, plus a revenue stream overly dependent upon the AI boom. Also discussed: reorganizing state constitutional offices; San Jose Mayor Matt Mahan's emergence as a Newsom foil and possible gubernatorial candidate; a proposed billionaire tax driving capital out of California; and a lack of Iran-related protests on college campuses despite the considerable Iranian-American population in Los Angeles County. Recorded on January 15, 2026.

In 2012, former Oregon governor John Kitzhaber declared an ambitious goal in his State of the State Address. “Next year’s class of kindergarten students is a benchmark,” he said. “They are the class of 2025. And 2025 is the year we’ve set to have 100 percent high school graduation in the state of Oregon.” OPB decided to document the stories of a kindergarten class on their journey all the way through high school; to capture what it’s like to grow up in the Oregon education system, and all the other life experiences that make us who we are along the way. Thirteen years after Kitzhaber’s State of the State address, that once tall order of a one-hundred percent high school graduation rate is no longer the goal. “We’re not gonna meet it,” Kitzhaber said. Now, it’s both the Class of 2025’s last year of high school and OPB’s last year of this long-term project. In the next few weeks, we’ll hear three unique stories from the class of 2025 students we’ve been following. In this episode, we present the story of two cousins: Anna and Austin. As little kids, they lived in the same neighborhood and went to the same elementary school. But now they go to different high schools, in two different zip codes. How did Austin and Anna’s high schools affect their decisions about college? Education reporter Elizabeth Miller finds out.

The Rich Zeoli Show- Hour 3: 5:00pm- On Wednesday, the Senate Judiciary Committee held a confirmation hearing for former Florida Attorney General Pam Bondi who has been nominated to serve as U.S. Attorney General in the incoming Trump Administration. In her opening statement, Bondi pledged to “make America safe again.” 5:15pm- Senator Dave McCormick—United States Senator from Pennsylvania—joins The Rich Zeoli Show to discuss the Senate confirmation hearings for President-elect Donald Trump's cabinet nominees and the ceasefire agreement between Israel and Hamas. 5:35pm- Assemblywoman Dawn Fantasia—Serving as a Member of the New Jersey General Assembly for the 24th Legislative District—joins The Rich Zeoli Show to react to Governor Phil Murphy's State of the State Address where he notably proposed to ban cell phones in schools. 5:40pm- On Tuesday, the House of Representatives passed The Protection of Women and Girls in Sports Act—which, if eventually passed by the Senate and signed into law, would only allow for biological females to compete in women and girls sports. In response to the bill, Rep. Alexandria Ocasio Cortez (D-NY) hilariously had a meltdown on the floor of the House.
The Rich Zeoli Show- Full Episode (01/15/2025): 3:05pm- During a press briefing on Wednesday, President Joe Biden announced that Israel and Hamas have reached a ceasefire agreement which will take effect on Sunday. Under the agreement's terms, which still needs to be confirmed by the Israeli cabinet, Hamas will release 33 hostages—though, 100 are being held in Gaza currently. Biden told members of the press that his administration worked alongside the incoming Trump administration in order to get the deal done. 3:15pm- On Wednesday, the Senate Foreign Relations Committee held a hearing to consider Sen. Marco Rubio (R-FL) for Secretary of State in the incoming Trump Administration. Rubio, who has served in the Senate since 2011, joked “it's a bit surreal to be on this side of the room.” 3:20pm- On Tuesday, Secretary of Defense nominee Pete Hegseth testified before the Senate Armed Services Committee. At one point, Hegseth outlined his plan to eradicate “woke” ideology from the U.S. military—vowing to prioritize combat preparation and competency. Rich notes that President-elect Donald Trump has a unique opportunity to combat the out-of-control growth of the federal government—but his job will be made easier if he has his preferred cabinet. 3:30pm- Coca-Cola CEO James Quincey presented Donald Trump with a special “Commemorative Inaugural Diet Coke” bottle. Matt tells Rich that he HAS to get one of these bottles of Coke! 3:40pm- Politico is already predicting Marco Rubio, who is expected to be confirmed by the Senate, won't last long as Secretary of State because he doesn't mesh well with the “MAGA-agenda.” 4:05pm- On Wednesday, the Senate Foreign Relations Committee held a hearing to consider Sen. Marco Rubio (R-FL) for Secretary of State in the incoming Trump Administration.

You will be remembered as a tool in the Democratic Party's strategy of misusing the Justice Department to visit injustice on innocent people with differing political views. I am a victim of your dysfunctional leadership, but unlike many of your targets, I have survived unscathed.” You can read the full editorial here: https://www.wsj.com/opinion/a-letter-to-merrick-garland-justice-department-investigation-unjust-lawfare-5ba52b42?mod=opinion_lead_pos5. 5:00pm- On Wednesday, the Senate Judiciary Committee held a confirmation hearing for former Florida Attorney General Pam Bondi who has been nominated to serve as U.S. Attorney General in the incoming Trump Administration.
