Fetterman CALLS OUT Democrats Over Shutdown & Extremism

from The Rich Zeoli Show

The Rich Zeoli Show- Full Show: 3:05pm- More good news for Jack Ciattarelli: New polling data suggests that enthusiasm for his campaign to be the next governor of New Jersey is now at a whopping 91%! Meanwhile, Mikie Sherrill continues to baselessly accuse Ciattarelli of killing “tens of thousands of people” for work a marketing firm he once owned did on behalf of pharmaceutical companies. Ciattarelli’s campaign has sued her for defamation. 3:30pm- Democrat Gubernatorial Nominees See Their Lead Narrow: Polling shows the race between Ciattarelli and Sherrill is, as of now, anyone’s race. Virginia Democrat Abigail Spanberger has seen her massive lead over Republican Winsome Earle-Sears—which was at one point estimated to be as much as 17-points in May—now sits at 5 to 8-points, according to polling averages. 3:40pm- On Wednesday night, Senator John Fetterman (D-PA) participated in a NewsNation town hall event where he called out his own party for refusing to pass a continuing resolution and, consequently, allowing the government to shut down. Fetterman also insisted that Democrats need to stop demonizing their political opponents: “I refuse to call people Nazis or fascists. I would never compare anybody, anybody to Hitler”—noting that the extremism embraced by members of his party is exactly what led to Donlad Trump winning every swing state in last year’s presidential election. “I refuse to follow that [extremism] even if it’s going to cost me support with parts of the base.” Are Democrats going to mount a primary challenge against Fetterman? 3:50pm- On Thursday, from the Oval Office, President Donald Trump announced his administration’s plans to help expand in vitro fertilization (IVF) access. Though he signed an executive order earlier this year, Trump is now issuing guidance encouraging employers to cover the procedure as part of their offered health insurance plans. 4:00pm- On Thursday, from the Oval Office, President Donald Trump announced his administration’s plans to help expand in vitro fertilization (IVF) access.

Plus, don’t miss the next Make America Hot Again party in New York City on November 4th! (There will be a popcorn machine!) 5:30pm- Zach Smith—Senior Legal Fellow and Manager of the Supreme Court and Appellate Advocacy Program in Heritage’s Meese Center—joins The Rich Zeoli Show to discuss the U.S. Supreme Court hearing oral argument in Louisiana v. Callais, a redistricting case focusing on the constitutionality of Louisiana’s congressional map and whether states should be compelled to consider race when redrawing legislative districts. 5:50pm- Former National Security Advisor John Bolton has been charged with mishandling classified information. 6:05pm- On Tuesday, for the eighth time, Senate Democrats voted against moving forward with a House-passed bill to fund the government and end the ongoing shutdown.
