The 2026 Election is on! Following the recording of the show, Governor Tony Evers announced he will not run for a third term, setting up an epic battle for governance in Wisconsin in 2026. We preview the huge opportunities for progressives in the State Senate in 2026. We discuss whether “The Steal of 2028” has begun with the Trump DOJ demanding Wisconsin voting records and records from a number of other battleground states. We welcome John Miyasato, the president of the Center on Civic Engagement (COCE), to discuss the historic role of community organizing in building a more equitable and just society but its centrality in any strategy to fight authoritarianism and rebuild a more just and equitable America. John tells us about COCE's New and Intermediate Organizer Training they are hosting in Brookfield, Wisconsin, Monday, August 4th to Friday, August 8th.

In this episode of The Frontline with Nathan Pierce, we explore what it means to speak the truth in love amidst cultural confusion and legislative pressure. Drawing from Ephesians 4:15 and other key Scriptures, Nathan lays the foundation for biblically grounded advocacy—bold, compassionate, and unwavering. Nathan explores why truth without love can be damaging, while love without truth can be deceptive, drawing on Jesus' example of perfectly balancing both. In a California legislative update, AB 727 has progressed in the State Senate. Although private homeschools are no longer impacted, the bill continues to pose a threat to Christian colleges and public schools. You can learn more about its current status, why it remains a concern, and how you can respond through prayer and action. Additionally, he warns about new legislation in New Jersey that aims to impose state-controlled curriculum standards on homeschoolers. This effort has deceptive origins, linked to a misleading national headline, and it's important to understand what is truly at stake. Finally, "Prayer Focus" outlines how you can intercede for homeschool freedom in California, New Jersey, and nationwide.

A Senate bill that would have banned the use of sewage sludge as fertilizer on New York farmland passed in the State Senate — but then quietly died in the Assembly. Supporters say the bill was a necessary response to research showing harmful levels of PFAS and other toxic compounds in treated human and industrial waste, which can contaminate crops, waterways and drinking water. Opponents, including the waste processing industry, say the science isn't settled and that banning sludge could devastate rural economies. We look at how the bill unraveled — and what happens next.

The U.S. Senate is considering a budget bill to slash taxes and federal spending. WITF's Jordan Wilkie explains Pennsylvania’s senators are split on support for President Donald Trump’s budget bill due to its reduction in social safety net programs. We hear from both Sen. Dave McCormick and Sen. John Fetterman. State Democratic leaders are urging their Republican colleagues to oppose Donald Trump’s federal spending bill, warning the plan could hurt Pennsylvanians. We hear from State Senate leader Jay Costa and emergency physician and PA House member Arvind Venkat. The Harrisburg School District is set to exit receivership. Secretary of the Pennsylvania Department of Education Carrie Rowe made the announcement Tuesday, calling it an historic milestone, since Harrisburg is the first Pennsylvania district to ever emerge from receivership. The district was first put under state control in 2019 in order to improve its finances and academic results. Harrisburg's former Bishop McDevitt High School is headed to sheriff’s sale this summer due to failed mortgage payments. That sale is slated for July 17th at the Dauphin County Administration Building. According to Dauphin County court documents, owner of the school's holding company, Jeremy Hunter, failed to pay off debt from two mortgage loans... totaling $2.2 million. An Ephrata man facing a 30-day sentence for disorderly conduct has now been charged with vandalizing an American flag outside a Lancaster County magisterial district judge's office. And water rates in Selinsgrove borough are increasing by 120 percent next month. Support WITF: https://www.witf.org/support/give-now/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Today's featured poet is Charise Hoge (0:03:35) whose latest collection, Inheritance of Flowers, came out this spring from Kelsay Books. Reflecting on her grandmother's legacy as a southern flower shop owner, Charise speaks with Ann about ancestry, belonging, and our internal connections with nature that are sustaining even in times of upheaval and hibernation.In the Ask Randi segment, Dr. Randi Eckel (0:29:27) dives into New Jersey's game-changing Bill S1029, which was just passed by the State Senate. This bill tackles the sale of invasive plants and creates an Invasive Species Council—huge wins for our native ecosystems. But this bill is not law yet. The New Jersey State Assembly still needs to pass Bill A4137 to seal the deal. So now is the moment to act: Call or email your State Assembly member and urge them to support A4137 or reach out to NPSNJ Advocacy with questions. Your voice can help protect the landscapes we love! Plus, Randi answers a listener question about living native Christmas trees—sharing her top picks for outdoor planting after the holiday season.Kim then talks with Ken Chaya (0:43:43) celebrated artist and New York-based urban naturalist. Ken shares why Central Park has become one of the premier birding spots in the United States. With its unique geography and rich canopy of over 20,000 trees, the park is a vital oasis for migratory birds—and a paradise for birders. Ken was instrumental in creating the Central Park Entire App, is the past President of the Linnaean Society and teaches at the New York Botanical Garden, where he helped design the Urban Naturalist Certificate Program. Most recently, he led a four-week deep dive into The Natural History of Birds for NPSNJ.Kim and Ann close the episode in conversation with the remarkable Mélina Mangal (1:11:32)—author of children's books that explore our deep connections between nature and culture. Her latest works, Birds Sing Their Words and Trees Stand Tall, are lyrical board books for young readers, published by Free Spirit Publishing. Mélina is also a school library teacher in Minneapolis, where she champions the joy of reading every day. Together, we discuss book censorship, the vital role of storytelling, and why the freedom to read and access information is essential to the health of our democracy.  Announcement from The WildStory: We will take a short hiatus this summer—offering regenerative time for gardening, writing, family, and more. We will be back with a new episode in September!

Mayor George Moscone was assassinated in the San Francisco mayor's office by Dan White, a former member of the San Francisco Board of Supervisors, on November 27, 1978. And then White walked down the hall and also shot Supervisor Harvey Milk—in White's former office. Lincoln Mitchell rescues crucial details about Mayor Moscone from the shadows of this tragedy, and reminds us of Mayor Moscone's contributions to the development of modern San Francisco. First, George Moscone was a trailblazing progressive and powerful state legislator who was instrumental in passing legislation on issues ranging from LGBT rights to funding for school lunches. Later, Moscone's 1975 campaign for mayor was historically significant because it was the first time a major race was won by a candidate who campaigned aggressively for expanding civil rights for both African Americans and LGBT people. In addition to being a successful politician, Moscone was a charming and charismatic bon vivant deeply embedded in the fabric and culture of San Francisco. He grew up the only son of a single mother in Cow Hollow when it was a working class, largely Italian American neighborhood, and he became the kind of politician who knows bartenders, playground attendants, small business owners, and neighborhood activists in every corner of the city. Mitchell demonstrates how Moscone—through his work in the State Senate, victory in the very divisive 1975 mayor's race, and brief tenure as mayor—was a key figure in our city's evolution. Join us in person to find out why the politics surrounding Moscone's election as mayor, governance of the city, and tragic death are still relevant today. A Humanities Member-led Forum program.

Farmers across Illinois may soon see relief from increasing wildlife-related crop damage. Legislation sponsored by Senator Neil Anderson, Senate Bill 710, cleared the State Senate unanimously and now moves to the House for review. The bill aims to help manage deer overpopulation, a persistent issue causing both agricultural losses and vehicle accidents. Key measures include automatic issuance of extra hunting permits for qualifying landowners, expanded free permits for those with at least 40 acres, and new guest permit options. The initiative was developed with input from local farm bureaus and state officials, underscoring the push for practical, bipartisan solutions. “Agriculture is Illinois' leading industry, and when experts in the field raise concerns, it's our responsibility as lawmakers to find real solutions,” said Senator Anderson. “This is a bipartisan issue, and I'm grateful my colleagues recognized the significant impact deer overpopulation has on both agriculture and public safety.” “This bill is a result of collaboration with local farm bureaus, the Illinois Department of Natural Resources, and the Illinois Farm Bureau,” Senator Anderson added. “It's a strong first step, and I'm committed to continuing our conversations further based on continued feedback from our agricultural community.” Anderson also stressed the public safety benefits of the legislation regarding deer-related vehicle accidents. Reducing deer populations near roadways is a crucial part of protecting drivers, especially in rural areas where these collisions are most frequent. “This bill supports our farmers, but it also looks out for everyday Illinoisans who drive our roads,” said Senator Anderson. “It's about protecting crops, ensuring road safety, and managing wildlife in a responsible, effective way.”

When we think of politics, I think a lot of us feel intimidated or like there isn't room for us in the process–we're not “political,” or we don't have time, or we're not the right kind of person. Today's guest shows that being an unlikely politician may actually be the best thing, and why we need more real people in politics (yes, that means you!) About Erin: Erin Oban is a lifelong North Dakotan and proud, Class B kid, raised in a farm family in Ray, ND. Her professional career has included experience as a middle school math teacher, in nonprofit management and educational leadership, and in politics and public service. In 2014 and again in 2018, Erin was elected to represent central Bismarck's District 35 in the State Senate. In 2022, she received an appointment from President Biden to serve as North Dakota's state director of USDA Rural Development, a federal agency responsible for making financing and technical assistance accessible to rural and Tribal communities across the country. When not engaging in issues of importance and finding ways to make an impact, big or small, in her community, Erin enjoys a cold beer on the patio with friends, a cup of coffee with a stranger, live music and comedy, traveling, and being comfy at home in Bismarck with her husband, Chad, and their son and favorite human, Evin. In this episode, we cover: How Erin became involved in the legislative world (kind of by accident!)

We open with a nod to Tara Bull's Top 10 News Stories the Legacy/mainstream media likely did not cover this week, or certainly did not do them justice if they did. Then we spend time with another judge breaking the law and being arrested. This dovetails with my comments on yesterday's show about people who are supposed to support and defend the rule of law, are becoming the biggest breakers of the law. This leads to a case in the SCOTUS that will ultimately decide if parents still have a right to determine what is best for their children. The case is about a school district beginning their indoctrination and grooming at age 3. Rep. Jason Crow (D-CO) has an odd way of trying to convince us the Democrats have the best ideas and policies. He seems to think we don't remember the most recent election. Rep. Illhan Omar (D-MN) is revealing with the Democrats will be doing if they get back in power during the midterms. So, this opens the door to several stories about persecution and condescension from the Left. As we close, Paramount and CBS have both settled DEI suits for their discrimination against straight, white males. This is happening as yet another judge tells Trump DEI must be kept in the public schools. Finally, we have a Democrat in Florida's State Senate who is leaving the party because he no longer recognizes it.

The Rich Zeoli Show- Hour 2: 4:00pm- Early Thursday morning, the Department of Justice announced the arrest of an alleged leader of the international criminal gang MS-13. He was in the country illegally. Attorney General Pam Bondi stated: “America is safer today because one of the top domestic terrorists in MS-13…is off the streets. This has been an ongoing directive of President Trump. His directive to me when I became Attorney General of the United States was very simple: Keep America safe!” 4:30pm- Cliff Maloney—Citizens Alliance CEO & PA Chase Founder—joins The Rich Zeoli Show to discuss the results of a special election in Lancaster, Pennsylvania. The district was +15 in favor of Donald Trump in November 2024—however, on Tuesday Democrat James Malone defeated Republican Josh Parsons to win a vacated State Senate seat. Republicans will control the PA State Senate 27 to 23 once Malone is sworn into office. PLUS, Maloney reveals he will be working to help Republicans win the 2025 New Jersey gubernatorial race! 4:50pm- Did “remote viewing” lead the CIA to confirm that the Ark of the Covenant is real?!?!

The Rich Zeoli Show- Full Episode (03/27/2025): 3:05pm- On Thursday, President Donald Trump announced Rep. Elise Stefanik (R-NY) will no longer be the nominee to serve as Ambassador to the United Nations. In a post to Truth Social, Trump revealed he asked Stefanik to remain in Congress—citing the Republican Party's narrow majority in the House of Representatives and the need for her critical vote to pass conservative policies. Though New York's 21st Congressional District is reliably red, reports indicate that Governor Kathy Hochul (D-NY) was planning to delay filling the vacancy—despite NY law mandating an election within 90 days. 3:30pm- Corey DeAngelis—Senior Fellow at the American Culture Project & Visiting Fellow at the American Institute for Economic Research—joins The Rich Zeoli Show to discuss the Trump Administration's pledge to dismantle the Department of Education. DeAngelis explains that President Donald Trump has emphasized Title I programs and IDEA will still be federally funded and will not be touched. The programs provide funding for students in high-poverty areas as well as students with disabilities. Who could possibly be opposed to returning education to the local level—where parents have more control? President of the American Federation of Teachers Randi Weingarten, of course! DeAngelis emphasizes “her power is slipping right through her fingertips” but this is good news for students, parents, and even teachers. “She makes over half a million dollars a year fighting to trap other people's kids in her failure factories that she likes to call public schools.” DeAngelis is the author of “The Parent Revolution: Rescuing Your Kids from the Radicals Ruining Our Schools.” 3:40pm- Disney Disaster: Disney's live action remake of the classic film Snow White hit theaters on March 21st. Despite needing to earn a reported $600 million to cover production and marketing costs, the film only grossed $43 million in its opening weekend. Part of the problem, according to reports, is Disney's unwillingness to put the film's star, Rachel Zegler, on an extended promotional tour due to her past controversial comments which have included criticisms of the original Snow White story, nasty comments about castmates, and profane remarks about President Donald Trump and his supporters. According to a new report from Variety, one of the film's producers needed to fly to Zegler and plead with her to stop posting polarizing messages on social media. 4:00pm- Early Thursday morning, the Department of Justice announced the arrest of an alleged leader of the international criminal gang MS-13. He was in the country illegally. Attorney General Pam Bondi stated: “America is safer today because one of the top domestic terrorists in MS-13…is off the streets.

Dimitri and Khalid dive into the heart of the Molly Maguire story in 1870s Schuylkill County, Pennsylvania, including: the simultaneous rise of the first successful labor union for miners (Irish-Catholic John Siney's Workingmen's Benevolent Association) and the charismatic Irish-American (Protestant) industrialist wunderkind Franklin B.
