As the end of the first special session approaches this week, with another threatened immediately to follow, we continue our talks with House Democrats who have left the state to stop the power grab of Donald Trump via mid-decade redistricting - a tactic that grows less and less popular as more and more Americans realize what's happening. The Texas Dems are largely responsible for the spread of that awareness - so part of their mission is already successful. We're glad to welcome back Rep. Erin Zwiener, whose district in Hays County overlays part of House District 35, which will be largely erased by the new map.Learn more about State Rep.

Rep. Christina Morales of Houston holds the very special distinction of having secured the most progressive voting record in the entire Texas House during the 89th Legislature (https://www.texastribune.org/2025/06/17/texas-house-2025-conservative-liberal-ranking/), and we're proud to (finally!) have her on for our ongoing series of updates from Democratic lawmakers who have left the state to halt Donald Trump's carving up of our congressional map for his own personal benefit.Learn more about Rep.

While Missouri's GOP governor has not made a decision yet on whether he'll call a special session for congressional redistricting, he says Illinois Democrats have gerrymandered their map. Governor Mike Kehoe spoke to reporters, including 939 the Eagle, in Columbia last week. Governor Kehoe says the U.S. House should stay in GOP control. State Rep. David Tyson Smith (D-Columbia) says a special session on congressional redistricting would be unconstitutional. Rep. Tyson Smith joined hosts Randy Tobler and Stephanie Bell live on 939 the Eagle's "Wake Up Missouri". He tells listeners that redistricting in mid-decade is designed for President Donald Trump's Republican Party to keep control of the U.S. House. He calls it egregious. While Rep. Tyson Smith admits Democratic states have gerrymandered districts, he says they haven't done it mid-cycle:

What about SEPTA? What kind of concessions are holding up a deal? Is Josh Shapiro still engaged in his governor job or is he looking at 1600 Pennsylvania Ave already? 120 - The Good Billionaire chimes in on whether or not he's a fit for the Democrat Party after Zohran Mamdani's comments. 135 - Continuing with the District Attorney's race.

Unlike many of the House Democrats away on this quorum break, Houston's Rep. Lauren Ashley Simmons is doing this for the first time, so her perspective on the measure and her sense of purpose might be a bit different from some of the other elected Dems we've interviewed from afar - and we find that she's as determined and as inspiring as ever.Learn more about Rep.

All of the Texas House Democrats out of the state to stop the Trump power grab are making personal sacrifices - including State Rep. Ron Reynolds, who is missing his twins' first day of high school on Tuesday. Those kids, through the rest of their lives, will have a great story to tell about why Dad was away - he's doing all he can to preserve American democracy. No big deal!Learn more about State Rep.

While Missouri's GOP governor has not made a decision yet on whether he'll call a special session for congressional redistricting, he says Illinois Democrats have gerrymandered their map. Governor Mike Kehoe spoke to reporters, including 939 the Eagle, in Columbia last week. The governor says the U.S. House should stay in GOP control. State Rep. David Tyson Smith (D-Columbia) says a special session on congressional redistricting would be unconstitutional. "Missouri Times" publisher Scott Faughn was live this morning on 939 the Eagle's "Wake Up Missouri" and suggests a special session is a good possibility. Mr. Faughn says if it does, the new GOP congressional district could run from the Independence area to Columbia. He says with that map, Missouri House Speaker Rep. Jon Patterson (R-Lee's Summit) and State Sens. Kurtis Gregory (R-Marshall) and Tony Luetkemeyer (R-Parkville) would be potential candidates in the new district. Scott also discussed his interview with Governor Mike Kehoe at the state Fair and why he enjoys conducting interviews at the state fair in Sedalia. Today is Missouri Farm Bureau Farm Family Day in Sedalia:

Former Executive VP of the Trump Organization explains why it's so dangerous to shrug off Trump's recent peculiar behavior; State Rep. Rafael Anchia (D-TX) discusses the high stakes of the redistricting fight in Texas; and longtime activist and Ben & Jerry's Ice Cream co-founder, Ben Cohen, digs into why the U.S. government should invest more in its citizens and less in weapons and war.

As Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton vows to punish the state's Democratic lawmakers for fleeing the state, Congressmen Lloyd Doggett, Jasmine Crockett, and State Rep. Ann Johnson discuss the threats to democracy posed by the Texas gerrymandering push; former Deputy National Security Adviser Ben Rhodes discusses Trump's upcoming in-person meeting with Vladimir Putin and the consequences of the war in Ukraine; and ‘The House on Mango Street' by Sandra Cisneros is the subject of this week's Velshi Banned Book Club.

State Representative Jamie Thompson never set out to become a lawmaker. As a nurse and a mother in Michigan, she watched with growing concern as COVID mandates stripped away personal and medical freedoms. But it wasn't until tragedy struck—when her daughter died in a motorcycle accident, leaving behind three young children—that Jamie felt called to take a stand. In this moving episode of American Potential, host David From talks with Rep. Thompson about her unexpected path into politics. She opens up about the professional pressure she faced during the pandemic, the toll on her family and business, and the heartbreaking loss that transformed her life. Raising her grandchildren alongside her husband, Jamie knew she had to fight for the kind of future they deserve—one rooted in liberty, accountability, and truth. This is more than a political story—it's a testament to courage, conviction, and the power of everyday Americans to step up when it matters most.

State Rep. Taylor Collins (R-Mediapolis), Chair of the House HigherEducation Committee, discusses actions taken by the legislature andboard of regents on affordability, intellectual freedom, andtransparency, as well as priorities for the the future includingcommunity college bachelor degrees.

When Delaware's General Assembly reconvenes next week for a special session on property reassessment issues, there will be a new member in the House chamber.Democrat Alonna defeated Republican Nikki Miller in the House District 20 special election to replace former State Rep.

The Rich Zeoli Show- Full Episode (08/07/2025) 3:05pm- In a post to social media, “comedian” Rosie O'Donnell wrote that ABC is allegedly reviewing progressive bias on The View. O'Donnell warned that the show would soon be canceled to appease “the orange messiah,” Donald Trump. Is it possible the show is in jeopardy of being discontinued because the quality is low? For example, South Park has been aggressively targeting the Trump Administration in its latest episodes—but Paramount recently awarded the show's creators with an estimated $1.5 billion. 3:30pm- Russell Vought—Director of the Office of Management & Budget—joins The Rich Zeoli Show to discuss “200 Days of Winning” with the Trump Administration. What are the Trump Administration's most underappreciated accomplishments so far? Director Vought explains: securing the U.S. Southern border & preventing entrenched bureaucrats from slowing President Donald Trump's agenda. 4:00pm- 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 40% of Brown University students claiming they are gay and a CBS host who is worried about moon colonization…because of the awful history of colonialism. Plus, his book is now officially hitting the bestseller list! You can find it here: https://a.co/d/89w7Scz. 4:30pm- National Purple Heart Day: From the White House, President Donald Trump delivered remarks during a ceremony honoring Purple Heart recipients. 4:45pm- While appearing on Fox News, Deputy Chief of Staff for Policy Stephen Miller estimated that because the 2020 census included undocumented migrants living in the U.S. unlawfully, Democrats have an additional 20 to 30 seats in the House of Representatives. 5:00pm- At least fifty-one Texas House Democrats fled the state as part of an effort to deny the Texas House a quorum—effectively preventing a vote on redistricting while also prolonging a vote on providing financial relief for families impacted by last month's devastating floods that killed more than 120 people. In response, Governor Greg Abbott has argued that fleeing the state to prevent the legislative process simply because you don't like the expected outcome of an upcoming vote amounts to an “abandonment or forfeiture of an elected state office.” 5:10pm- While appearing on CNN, political strategist Brad Todd explained that errors with the 2020 census “disproportionately” hurt Republican dominated states. 5:15pm- Democratic Strategist James Carville is now encouraging his party to make Puerto Rico and Washington D.C. states and add four seats to the Supreme Court if they take control of the House, Senate, and White House in 2028. 5:30pm- Chris Cuomo was tricked by perhaps the most obvious deep fake video of Rep. Alexandria Ocasio Cortez in recent memory—and didn't realize it for nearly 3 hours! Are we actually on Team AOC here? 5:40pm- 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 Donald Trump potentially meeting with Vladimir Putin to negotiate an end to the Russia-Ukraine war. Dr. Coates is the author of the book: “The Battle for the Jewish State: How Israel—and America—Can Win.” 6:05pm- State Rep. Briscoe Cain—Texas House of Representative from the 128th District & Chairman of the Texas Freedom Caucus—joins The Rich Zeoli Show to discuss Texas House Democrats fleeing the state to avoid voting on redistricting. Rep. Cain has filed HB 257 to vacate the seat of any legislator who skips seven straight legislative days without an excused absence. He explains: “If you abandon your job, you don't deserve the title.” 6:20pm- During a recent interview, Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard was asked about UFOs. Has she seen anything proving the existence of aliens??? 6:40pm- REPLAY: Russ ...

This next update from afar is the first to come to Progress Texas after the news of a bomb threat that required the evacuation of an Illinois hotel where several of the quorum breaking Texas House Democrats - and in some cases, their families and kids - are sheltering as they put the brakes on Governor Abbott's carving up of Texas' congressional maps on the orders of Donald Trump. As Austin State Rep. John Bucy reminds us, this frightening moment is the direct result of inflammatory and highly irresponsible Republican rhetoric from some of that party's highest ranking electeds - officials who now should see it within their duty to dial back the drama.Learn more about State Rep.

On Tuesday's show: Texas Republican leaders are issuing threats while Texas House Democrats remain out of state in an effort to block new district maps the GOP says will help them gain seats in Congress.

Gene Wu, chairman of the Texas House Democratic Caucus.Also this hour: We examine the growing use of telemedicine among Houston-area doctors. Sometimes it's practical and beneficial for patients.
