  • The Rich Zeoli Show- Hour 1: 3:05pm- New York City Mayor Eric Adams has been indicted on multiple federal charges, including wire fraud, bribery, and solicitation of a contribution by a foreign national. During a press conference on Thursday, U.S. Attorney in Manhattan Damian Williams summarized the 57-page indictment and alleged that Adams received roughly $100,000 in money, campaign contributions, first class flights, and hotel accommodations from Turkish government officials and businesses in exchange for political favors. 3:10pm- In December of 2023, New York City Mayor Eric Adams publicly criticized the Biden Administration’s failed immigration policy. Is the federal indictment case brought against him revenge for that criticism? White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre said that the Department of Justice operates independently from the White House. 3:30pm- Paul Pelosi Unloads $500k of Visa Stock…Right Before DOJ’s Anti-Trust Lawsuit. Ariel Zilber of The New York Post writes: “Nancy Pelosi’s husband unloaded more than $500,000 worth of Visa stock—less than three months before the credit card giant was slapped with federal antitrust charges, public documents show. Visa was hit with a lawsuit on Tuesday that alleged the company has illegally monopolized the debit card market—the culmination of a years-long review conducted by the Justice Department’s antitrust unit…Meanwhile, Christopher Josephs, the tech entrepreneur who runs the ‘Nancy Pelosi Stock Tracker’ on X, posted a screenshot of a congressional filing on July 3 which showed that the former House speaker’s husband, Paul Pelosi, had sold 2,000 shares of Visa worth between $500,000 and $1 million.” You can read the full article here: https://nypost.com/2024/09/24/business/nancy-pelosis-husband-sold-500k-in-visa-stock-before-dojs-antitrust-suit/ 3:40pm- House Investigating If Zelensky Trip Was Intended To Benefit Kamala Campaign. Haley Strack of National Review reports: “Republicans on the House Oversight Committee launched an investigation on Wednesday to determine if the Biden administration misused taxpayer dollars to fly Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky to the U.S. to benefit Kamala Harris’s presidential campaign. In letters to top Biden administration officials, committee chairman James Comer wrote that then-president Donald Trump faced similar accusations from Democrats in 2019 of trying to use Zelensky to benefit his campaign ‘despite a lack of any evidence of wrongdoing. Now, the Biden-Harris Administration is flying the same foreign leader on an American-taxpayer-funded flight to Pennsylvania, a battleground state for Harris’s campaign,’ Comer wrote.” You can read the full article here: https://www.nationalreview.com/news/house-investigating-if-zelensky-trip-scheduled-to-benefit-kamala-harris-campaign/
