from The Rita Cosby Show · host 77 WABC

In this fiery episode of the Rita Cosby Show, Rita tackles the alarming rise of antisemitism and radical politics across the country. The discussion kicks off with troubling news out of Michigan, where lawmakers intentionally excluded Jewish holidays from new state legislation, alongside shocking rhetoric from a University of Michigan commencement speaker. Rita and her callers pull no punches dissecting the controversial behavior of NYC Mayor Zohran Mamdani and his wife, from clashing with Miss Israel in a Brooklyn cafe to ignoring violent protests outside the Park East Synagogue. We also celebrate Marco Rubio’s masterful performance in the White House press room, debate Donald Trump’s hardline military and economic strategies to squeeze Iran, and call out the glaring hypocrisy of wealthy Democrats sporting dollar bills on their faces at the Met Gala. Plus, a moving Support Our Heroes tribute to Air Force and Iwo Jima veteran Gordon Duhane.  Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
