The Rich Zeoli Podcast

Rich Zeoli comes to you live from the White House after President Trump’s State of the Union, and we get right into the contrast: a serious night on Capitol Hill… and a bizarre “State of the Swamp” counter-program that somehow features a harmonica-playing giraffe outfit and Robert De Niro.

We bounce from the funniest clips of the night to the sharpest fights in Washington, including Nancy Pelosi getting cal...

Rich Zeoli opens State of the Union Day by sizing up the theatrics Democrats have planned for President Trump’s address—and we start with the early preview: New Jersey Democrats rolling out a bill built around a not-so-subtle acronym, the F-ICE Act. We lay out what it’s meant to do, why it’s getting attention, and how Zeoli sees it fitting into the bigger political strategy of turning every fight into a head...

Rich Zeoli opens the show by tearing into Gavin Newsom’s stage moment that lands like the bigotry of low expectations—Newsom trying to “bond” with a mostly Black audience by bragging about a 960 SAT score and saying he can’t read a speech. We walk through Nicki Minaj’s reaction, why Zeoli says it’s not a slip-up, and how Newsom’s furious response to Sean Hannity turns into a loud, pro...

In this podcast special, Rich speaks with Dr. Victoria Coates.

A former deputy national security advisor to President Donald Trump, Victoria Coates is Vice President of the Kathryn and Shelby Cullom Davis Institute for National Security and Foreign Policy at The Heritage Foundation. With decades of experience as a national security advisor in Congress, federal agencies, and the White House, Coates leads the Davis Institute in desig...

Rich Zeoli leads with the bombshell that has rocked the world: Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor, formerly Prince Andrew, was arrested this morning at the Sandringham estate on suspicion of misconduct in public office. We examine newly released Epstein files suggesting he shared sensitive trade documents and investment briefs with Jeffrey Epstein while serving as a UK trade envoy—raising the chilling question: was Andrew a bridge fo...

Why we should abolish the FCC + Hillary cheers free speech crackdown + How to fix Philly's slavery exhibit

Rich Zeoli breaks down why Stephen Colbert’s “equal time” freakout is pure theater and why CBS attorneys — not the FCC — are driving the whole mess. We lay out how Colbert uses the James Tallarico interview as a publicity stunt to funnel viewers to YouTube, while Tallarico plays the victim and rak...

Obama cuts off the 2028 field at the knees, Pelosi refuses to go in on Gavin, PLUS Trump responds on Munich and there is a secret attack on the 2nd Amendment. 

Rich Zeoli opens by arguing the Democrats don’t run a real grassroots nomination at all—superdelegates and party power brokers do—and that’s why the party keeps shutting down insurgent candidates year after year. We lay out how Biden in 2016, Ber...

Rich Zeoli breaks down the 2028 Democratic 'auditions' in Munich featuring AOC, Gavin Newsom, and Gretchen Whitmer. Plus, Al Gore’s plan to ban algorithms and the AI Tom Cruise clip everyone is talking about

In this episode:

The Munich Beauty Pageant: AOC, Gavin Newsom, and Gretchen Whitmer hit the world stage to audition for 2028. We dissect AOC’s viral non-answer on Taiwan and why Newsom’s habit of trashing the ...

Zeoli opens by bringing more great news! President Trump says you'll save $2400 now that he has scrapped Obama's disastrous climate change rules. And of course, Obama is screaming that the world is going to be destroyed. The left is really nervous though because 19 Attorneys General are now calling for investigations into green energy scams that cost taxpayers billions if not trillions of dollars. Many of these groups are foreign N...

Rich Zeoli opens with the EPA move led by Lee Zeldin and President Donald Trump that wipes out major emissions-era rules—plus the best part: the auto stop-start feature that kills your A/C at red lights. That madness is going to end and so are the ridiculous rules around emissions standards. We dig into why the electric vehicle push is getting tossed, what it means for drivers, and why Zeoli says the mandates turned car lots ...

Rich Zeoli starts off examining the ICE hearing chaos. The left loves being judgmental and being the "good" person and deciding who is or isn't based on the cause du jour. Have you worn your Anti-Ice pin today? This is where a Democrat member of Congress goes straight for afterlife judgment and accuses ICE of routinely killing people. We unpack why the wording is the whole point. Rich ties it back to the larger habit on the left of...

Rich Zeoli comes out firing on Trump’s outstanding decision to end greenhouse-gas rules and why it could mean cheaper energy, a weaker EPA, and the end to climate-litigation scam. We lay out how the Obama-era “endangerment finding” became the legal foundation for sweeping regulations and government money grabs, and why Zeoli thinks EPA Administrator Lee Zeldin’s move is the biggest deregulation play yet &mda...

Rich Zeoli opens the show by torching the idea that today’s Democrat Party is “moderate,” using New Jersey’s special primary as the proof point. Bernie Sanders and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez backed a far left progressive who won a special election to fill a Congressional seat. Her platform: fight the oligarchy, fight ICE, fight Trump. Fighting Trump IS the point these days for Democrats. Not compromise. Not co...

Rich Zeoli opens by calling out democrats for being stolen election conspiracy theorists. From Chuck Schumer calling Voter ID Jim Crow 2.0 to Senator Ed Markey saying Trump is going to steal voting machines to Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries saying Trump is going to steal ballots, democrats sound like unhinged lunatics. Even Stephen A. Smith and Bill Maher are pushing back on their claims that The Save Act is racist. But wait, ther...

Rich Zeoli hops into another liberal meltdown: no, President Trump is not going to run for a 3rd term but he loves to flirt with the idea because it causes liberals and the media to lose their minds. 71% of Democrats like the idea of having to show ID to vote but that doesn't stop Chuck Schumer from calling it Jim Crowe 2.0. But when you ask actual black Americans about voter ID laws, turns out they don't think it is racist at all....

Zeoli is fired up today as we dig into Tom Homan’s Minnesota move, why it’s working, and how it exposes the political games around ICE versus what real law enforcement actually wants.

We spend a big chunk of the show on Homan’s message from Minneapolis: this is a targeted operation, he wants officers and suspects going home alive, and cooperation is the whole point. We talk about how the loudest anti-ICE voices ar...

The hour opens with a high-stakes political thriller: The deep state comes for Tulsi Gabbard. Tulsi is a patriot who fights for the Constitution and wants to keep America out of endless wars. Now, the same deep state hack lawyer who helped the CIA go after President Trump is representing a whistleblower who is trying to take down Gabbard. This comes as warmongers are pushing Trump to go to war with Iran and Tulsi is looking into th...

Rich Zeoli kicks things off as we take aim at the Grammy Awards and the loud double standard on display. We spend the show calling out celebrities who preach about stolen land, oppression, and borders while living behind gates in mansions most Americans will never see. When someone like Billie Eilish lectures the country from an estate worth millions, we ask a simple question: do the rules apply to everyone, or just regular people?

The "mostly peaceful nurse" narrative blows up as another video of Alex Pretti comes out, this time violently kicking an ICE vehicle and screaming in their faces. We walk through the latest video tied to Alex Preddy and why it changes the public story that activists and politicians try to sell. We talk about what it means when a protest turns into destruction of property, why “wait for the facts” matters, and how the co...
