Description
On Today’s Show:
👉 Gavin Newsom's staged fishing interview with Jake Tapper and his passive-aggressive shots at Kamala Harris
👉 Federal prosecutors launching an investigation into Gavin Newsom's foundation and travel spending
👉 The Patrick Clancy case, TikTok conspiracy theorists, and Amanda Knox's defense
👉 Silicon Valley tech executives demanding government regulation on emerging technology
Rich Zeoli dissects the staged fishing trip featuring Gavin Newsom and Jake Tapper from CNN, where Newsom pretended to back off a 2028 presidential bid if Kamala Harris runs. We analyze how Newsom subtly threw Harris under the bus by pointing out her major electoral losses across swing states. We also examine Harris resurfacing with confusing public statements trying to define machine learning and claiming data files float in the sky above us.
Zeoli examines the federal investigation into Newsom's international travel and private foundation funding. We discuss how federal prosecutors subpoenaed records tied to wealthy donors and California state contracts, questioning the political timing behind this probe. Meanwhile, we look at California passing restrictive legislation aimed at shutting down citizen journalist Nick Shirley after his investigations exposed massive state fraud.
We tackle Amanda Knox's piece defending Patrick Clancy against viral social media conspiracies and slander. Zeoli slams TikTok internet detectives pushing baseless theories about tragic crimes for clicks and views. Finally, we expose the tech panic where Silicon Valley founders demand government protection, while ignoring the real threat of China stealing American intellectual property from blueberry crops to advanced systems.
