No matter how much the Supreme Court pretends that the words 'high crimes and misdemeanors' are not explicitly in the Constitution, Donald Trump is still a disqualified law-breaker and is exactly the kind of guy the Founding Fathers warned us about. Character is now the only real check on presidential power. Plus, if push comes to shove, what are the basic rules that govern a change at the top of the ticket?

Remember the show, Big Bang Theory? Of course you do. Best—television show—ever. Do you remember when Sheldon Cooper and his girlfriend Amy Farrah Fowler produced their Web TV show, "Fun with Flags? “I'm Dr. Sheldon Cooper, and this is Fun with Flags.” Well, in keeping with that, I have a similarly geeky fascination with geography. So, I'm Dr. Steven Shepard, and this is Fun with Geography. I am constantly running across fascinating little factoids about the world. Most of ‘em fall into the ‘really interesting but not sure how it's useful' category, other than the priceless value of information and knowledge. When I worked at Hill Associates, we used to talk about quodlibetic information—information that is really interesting, but that has no earthly use. So, this episode is your periodic dose of quodlibetic information.

As the presidential election heats up and President Joe Biden struggles to keep young voters' support, novelist Jen Silverman joins co-host V.V. Ganeshananthan to discuss generational divides in U.S. politics. Silverman, whose new book, There's Going to Be Trouble, follows the political and sexual awakenings of a father and daughter in different eras, talks about how young people's involvement in politics now compares to previous generations' engagement. They address the question of whether today's 20-something voters are more likely to protest than vote, consider how social media and technology relate to in-person conversations and activism, and reflect on the need to name and engage with the failures of earlier generations. Silverman also explains why they chose to write about anti-Vietnam War protests at Harvard in 1968 and the gilet jaunes (Yellow Vest) protests in Paris fifty years later, and reads an excerpt from There's Going to Be Trouble.  To hear the full episode, subscribe through iTunes, Google Play, Stitcher, Spotify, or your favorite podcast app (include the forward slashes when searching).

Yesterday, several states held their primary elections, and unsurprisingly, both Donald Trump and President Biden are still going to be the nominees in the 2024 election. What is more surprising, and worth paying attention to, is how the primary contests revealed many of the electoral weaknesses of the nominees. And their campaigns are paying very close attention to this as well. What did we learn yesterday? Steven Shepard from POLITICO joins the show.

The Rich Zeoli Show- Full Episode (02/27/2024): 3:05pm- Michigan will hold its Republican and Democrat primaries today. Donald Trump currently leads Nikki Haley for the Republican nomination with 110 delegates to 20. Steven Shepard of Politico writes about Haley's uphill battle: “In Tuesday's Michigan primary, say Haley actually wins her first state and gets a majority of the delegates awarded, seven of 13. But the bulk of Michigan's delegates, 39, will actually be awarded next weekend at a state convention, where Trump is expected to romp with the party insiders.” You can read more here: https://www.politico.com/news/2024/02/25/haley-path-nomination-impossible-00143205 3:10pm- On Saturday, South Carolina held its Republican presidential primary—with Donald Trump defeating Nikki Haley 60% to 40%. Despite the loss, Haley told supporters that she will remain in the race at least through Super Tuesday on March 5th. According to Politico's calculations, Trump will likely accumulate 1,215+ delegates by March 19th—reaching a majority of the Republican party's delegates and officially becoming the presumptive nominee. 3:15pm- A CPAC straw poll asked conference attendees who they would like to see Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump select to be his Vice President. South Dakota Governor Kristi Noem and biotech entrepreneur Vivek Ramaswamy both received 15% of the vote. Former U.S. Congresswoman Tulsi Gabbard finished third—receiving 9% of the vote. You can see the full results here: https://www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-68388154 3:20pm- Henry Rodgers of The Daily Caller writes that South Dakota Governor Kristi Noem—a rumored Vice President contender—visited Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump at Mar-a-Lago. You can read the full report here: https://dailycaller.com/2024/02/26/kristi-noem-donald-trump-meeting-mar-a-lago-vice-president/ 3:25pm- During a recent town hall meeting, New York City Mayor Eric Adams stated that it's time for NYC to rethink and modify its sanctuary city policy—which will, ideally, make it easier to remove undocumented migrants from residing in the city. 3:30pm- FLASHBACK: During his 1995 State of the Union address, President Bill Clinton called for the U.S. government to deport migrants who entered the country unlawfully. Perhaps surprisingly, he received a bipartisan round of applause for the declaration. When did Democrats become so radicalized on border security and migration policy? 3:40pm- On Tuesday, Nathan Wade's former divorce lawyer Terrence Bradley testified in a hearing to determine whether Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis should be disqualified from the Georgia election interference case she brought against former President Donald Trump. According to allegations, Willis engaged in an improper, romantic relationship with the lead prosecutor of the case, Wade—paying him an estimated $650,000 in taxpayer money. Willis is also alleged to have directly derived financial benefit from the relationship with Wade in the form of several extravagant vacations. During a court hearing from earlier this month, Robin Yeartie—a longtime friend of Willis—testified that Willis and Wade had a romantic relationship dating back to 2019. 4:05pm- Jonah E. Bromwich, Ben Protess, and William K. Rashbaum of The New York Times write: “Manhattan prosecutors on Monday asked the judge overseeing their criminal case against Donald J. Trump to prohibit the former president from attacking witnesses or exposing jurors' identities… The gag order in the Manhattan case, if the judge approves it, would bar Mr. Trump from ‘making or directing others to make' statements about witnesses concerning their role in the case. The district attorney, Alvin L. Bragg, also asked that Mr. Trump be barred from commenting on prosecutors on the case…The Manhattan criminal case was the first of Mr. Trump's four indictments to be filed and is scheduled to go to trial on March 25. Last year, the district attorney's office accused Mr. Trump of 34 felonies, saying he had orchestrated a cover-up of a potential sex scandal with a porn star that could have hindered his 2016 presidential campaign… Mr. Bragg has cast Mr. Trump's actions as election interference, arguing that the cover-up led to the withholding of important information from voters shortly before they headed to the polls.” Rich notes, who exactly was victimized by these payments? Voters can't truly be considered impacted, as Trump didn't win New York in 2016 or 2020 anyway. You can read the full New York Times' article here: https://www.nytimes.com/2024/02/26/nyregion/trump-gag-order-hush-money-trial.html 4:30pm- On Monday, the U.S. Supreme Court heard oral argument in two cases (Moody v. NetChoice LLC. and NetChoice, LLC v. Paxton) which will determine whether social media companies are permitted to engage in politically based content moderation—or if this amounts to a form of censorship. But shouldn't private companies be permitted to act autonomously without government compulsion? 4:40pm- Adam Liptak of The New York Times writes: “The Supreme Court seemed skeptical on Monday of laws in Florida and Texas that bar major social media companies from making editorial judgments about which messages to allow. The laws were enacted in an effort to shield conservative voices on the sites, but a decision by the court, expected by June, will almost certainly be its most important statement on the scope of the First Amendment in the internet era, with broad political and economic implications. A ruling that tech platforms have no editorial discretion to decide which posts to allow would expose users to a greater variety of viewpoints but almost certainly amplify the ugliest aspects of the digital age, including hate speech and disinformation. Though a ruling in favor of big platforms like Facebook and YouTube appeared likely, the court also seemed poised to return the cases to the lower courts to answer questions about how the laws apply to sites that do not seem to moderate their users' speech in the same way, like Gmail, Venmo, Uber and Etsy.” You can read Liptak's full breakdown here: https://www.nytimes.com/2024/02/26/us/politics/supreme-court-social-media-texas-florida.html 5:00pm- Tracey Tully and Patrick McGeehan of The New York Times write: “A year ago, Gov. Philip D. Murphy of New Jersey spoke proudly about his plan to let a corporate business tax expire, framing it as a promise kept in a state striving to compete for entrepreneurs… On Tuesday, Mr. Murphy will propose reversing course and again implementing a corporate business tax of 11.5 percent—the nation's highest rate—for the state's most profitable companies, according to several of his aides. He is expected to present the restoration of the tax as part of a permanent solution to the dire financial condition of New Jersey's statewide transit system during his annual budget address at the State House.” You can read more here: https://www.nytimes.com/2024/02/27/nyregion/new-jersey-transit-taxes.html?searchResultPosition=1 5:20pm- According to a recent poll from Rasmussen, a whopping 48% of Democrat voters say they would like to see Joe Biden replaced as the party's presidential candidate in 2024. Vice President Kamala Harris, former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, California Governor Gavin Newsom, and former First Lady Michelle Obama were all listed as potential replacements. 5:40pm- Gregg Opelka—Contributor for The Daily Caller (and brother of America's fill-in host Mike Opelka)—joins the The Rich Zeoli Show to discuss his latest article, “Fiddler on the Roof—Brought to You By the Woke State Department.” You can read the full article here: https://dailycaller.com/2024/02/26/tevye-fiddler-on-the-roof-broadway-blinken-pronouns-gender-identity/ 6:05pm- Adam Entous and Michael Schwirtz of The New York Times write: “Now entering the third year of a war that has claimed hundreds of thousands of lives, the intelligence partnership between Washington and Kyiv is a linchpin of Ukraine's ability to defend itself. The C.I.A. and other American intelligence agencies provide intelligence for targeted missile strikes, track Russian troop movements and help support spy networks… But the partnership is no wartime creation…As the partnership deepened after 2016, the Ukrainians became impatient with what they considered Washington's undue caution, and began staging assassinations and other lethal operations, which violated the terms the White House thought the Ukrainians had agreed to. Infuriated, officials in Washington threatened to cut off support, but they never did.” You can read the full article here: https://www.nytimes.com/2024/02/25/world/europe/cia-ukraine-intelligence-russia-war.html 6:30pm- In a piece published by The Atlantic, former New York Times opinion editor Adam Rubenstein recalled how he was once reprimanded by NYT human resources for telling co-workers his favorite sandwich was from Chick-fil-A. Rubenstein was informed that dining at the restaurant chain is considered offensive because “they hate gay people.” You can read the full editorial here: https://www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archive/2024/02/tom-cotton-new-york-times/677546/

According to Russell Berman of The Atlantic, it isn't a foregone conclusion. Congressmen Jamie Raskin (D-MD), Adam Schiff (D-CA), and Jim Clyburn (D-SC) did not confirm their willingness to accept the 2024 election results.

During a recent interview with Dana Bash on CNN, Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer (D) conceded that she's “not sure” how Biden will fare in the state. Smith writes: “Arab Americans, irate over Mr. Biden's support for Israel, are pushing Democrats to select ‘uncommitted' on the state's primary ballot on Tuesday. Several recent general election polls show Mr. Biden running behind former President Donald J. Trump in Michigan, while another shows Mr. Biden leading. Prominent Democrats in Detroit and Lansing say they are worried not just about losing Arab Americans, but also about Black men and union workers and young people. That leaves Ms. Whitmer, one of eight national co-chairs of Mr. Biden's campaign, who is seen by many Democrats as a future contender for the presidency, facing perhaps the biggest electoral test of her career even though her name is not on the ballot. Ms. Whitmer is particularly strong with moderate voters and suburbanites, and has forged deep ties with Black leaders in Detroit. But it remains to be seen whether she can help much with those most frustrated with Mr. Biden, including voters further to the left and Arab Americans.” You can read Smith's full article here: https://www.nytimes.com/2024/02/25/us/gretchen-whitmer-michigan-biden.html 3:25pm- While appearing on MSNBC with Jen Psaki, Pennsylvania Governor Josh Shapiro (D) accused the Republican party of being an “extremist party.” 3:40pm- Former Obama Campaign Manager & Administration Advisor David Axelrod suggested that President Joe Biden may struggle to appeal to black voters if Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump selects Sen.

As Nikki Haley and Vivek Ramaswamy vie for the Republican presidential nomination, Indian American reporter and memoirist Prachi Gupta joins co-hosts Whitney Terrell and V.V. Ganeshananthan put these politicians into historical perspective. She discusses how the myth of Indian American exceptionalism has been used to further white supremacy and suppress other minority groups, and also analyzes how Haley and Ramaswamy perpetuate the misguided notion of the U.S. as a meritocracy. Gupta discusses the role that class and caste has played in immigration from India; how gender affects diaspora politics; the appeal of assimilation and hierarchy; and the performance of authenticity. She reads from her debut memoir, They Called Us Exceptional: And Other Lies that Raised Us.

The Rich Zeoli Show- Full Episode (10/27/2023): 3:05pm- The Wall Street Journal Editorial Board writes: “The Justice Department's Crossfire Hurricane investigation is the fiasco that keeps on giving, and look no further than this week's revelations of abuse of power. The latest news is that Justice snooped on the Congressional investigators who dared to conduct oversight of its snooping on the 2016 Trump campaign. Numerous current and former congressional staffers have learned that Justice subpoenaed their personal phone and email records in 2017, likely under the pretext of a leak investigation. The targets included Republican and Democratic staffers in the Senate and House. They join staffers and Members of the House Intelligence Committee, who over the past two years said they were notified by Google or Apple that Justice seized their data. By our count, executive-branch prosecutors have now been caught fishing through the records of more than a dozen employees of the congressional branch.” You can read the full editorial here: https://www.wsj.com/articles/department-of-justice-congress-spying-jason-foster-empower-oversight-f2d6235e?mod=opinion_lead_pos1 3:15pm- Brooke Singman of Fox News reports: “The FBI maintained more than 40 confidential human sources on various criminal matters related to the Biden family, including Joe Biden, dating back to his time as vice president, according to information obtained by Sen. Chuck Grassley…Grassley learned that an FBI task force within the Washington Field Office sought to, and in some cases, successfully, shut down reporting and information from those sources by falsely discrediting the information as foreign disinformation. That effort ‘caused investigative activity to cease.'” You can read the full report here: https://www.foxnews.com/politics/fbi-received-criminal-information-40-confidential-sources-joe-biden-hunter-jim-grassley 3:30pm- On Thursday, in response to drone attacks against U.S. troops, American F-16 fighter jets conducted two airstrikes against Iranian-backed military groups in Syria. While appearing on MSNBC, Defense Department Spokesperson Brigadier General Pat Ryder said of the strikes against Iranian proxies: “Hopefully they get the message loud and clear and will cease these attacks against our forces in Iraq and Syria.” 3:40pm- While appearing on Fox News with Sean Hannity, Speaker of the House Mike Johnson (R-LA) vowed to separate funding packages for Ukraine and Israel—explaining that House Republicans will find $14 billion in budgetary cuts and use that savings to provide Israel with the aid they've requested. 3:50pm- While walking to her Congressional office, far-left Rep. Rashida Tlaib (D-MI) was asked to condemn the actions of Hamas. Instead, Tlaib bizarrely accused the reporter of “dehumanizing Palestinians.” 4:05pm- Dr. EJ Antoni—Economist & Research Fellow in The Heritage Foundation's Grover M. Hermann Center for the Federal Budget—joins The Rich Zeoli Show to react to news that Gross Domestic Product (GDP) grew by 4.9% in the third quarter. What fueled economic growth, and is it sustainable? Worryingly, The Wall Street Journal notes that GDP growth was accompanied by a massive decline in savings rates.

Brother Against Brother: Civil War is a historical fictional novel about the Red River Campaign of the American Civil War as it was as experienced by Captain Douglas Ivey. Captain Ivey gets assigned by his commander, General Richard Taylor, to assemble a rag tag squad of soldiers drafted from local Louisiana civilians and regular Confederate Army to conduct a recon mission south along the Red River to locate and number an invading Yankee Army. The story Brother Against Brother illustrates the personal losses and suffering the people of Northwest Louisiana and Captain Ivey experienced from the Civil War and the Red River Campaign that brought a bloody war to their doorstep. Along the way, Captain Ivey meets a unique assortment of characters from the North Louisiana region that illustrate the kind of people involved in that conflict, period and the war of 1864. The action of the story climaxes with Captain Ivey's experience at the Battle of Mansfield and the capture of Captain Ivey's own brother from the Union Army. The book is a dramatic story of what happens to two brothers on opposite sides of a war after they have to face each other in armed combat. This week in Louisiana history. September 18, 1799.

How did congressional Republicans improve so much over their performance in the 2018 midterms? What do we know about what motivated voters this cycle? How much did the pandemic matter in the end? Steven Shepard, Politico’s chief polling analyst and senior campaign and elections editor, joins the panel to answer questions about the polls. How wrong were the polls and why were they wrong, and why was it so hard for polling to reflect support for Donald Trump? *This episode was recorded Friday morning.

The number of people testing positive for coronavirus continues to rise in many parts of the U.S., with sharp rises in places like Florida, Nevada, Alabama, Texas, and Puerto Rico. Yet, President Trump continues to attribute the rise to more testing -- despite the rise in hospitalizations and deaths -- and he wants to reduce federal aid for more testing, tracing, and for the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Also this hour: The ABC News/Washington Post poll released Sunday shows former Vice President Joe Biden leading President Trump by 15 points among registered voters, 55% to 40%. A majority of respondents are not happy with the president's handling of the coronavirus, among other things. On a happier note: It's National Moth Week!
