Jury in Trump Hush Money Trial Begins Deliberation
The Rich Zeoli Show- Hour 1:
3:05pm- Jurors have begun deliberation in the Donald Trump “hush money” trial. Could we get a verdict before the end of the day? Trump has been charged with having concealed payments made to adult film star Stormy Daniels. Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg alleges that the payment concealment amounts to falsified business records which ultimately influenced the 2016 election.
3:30pm- While appearing on Fox News, Andrew C. McCarthy explained the bizarre instructions Judge Juan Merchan gave to the jury prior to deliberation—in order to convict former President Donald Trump, the jury is not required to agree on which crime was committed. And in a piece he wrote for National Review, McCarthy explained, Judge Merchan “effectively concealed what should have been fatal holes in [the prosecution’s] case.”
3:40pm- Dr. Ben Carson—Former U.S. Secretary of Housing and Urban Development & a Retired Neurosurgeon and Professor of Medicine at Johns Hopkins University—joins The Rich Zeoli and reacts to Joe Biden’s appearance at Girard College in Philadelphia on Wednesday, where the president attempted to appeal to black voters. Dr. Carson argues that it’ll take more than one trip to Philadelphia to stifle the enormous progress Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump has made with black voters. Dr. Carson’s new book— “The Perilous Fight: Overcoming Our Culture’s War on the American Family”—which he co-authored with his wife Candy Carson, is available here: https://a.co/d/5RggqEs
3:55pm- While speaking from Girard College in Philadelphia on Wednesday, President Joe Biden asked, “what do you think Trump would have done on January 6 if black Americans had stormed the Capitol?...This is the same guy who wanted to tear gas you as you peacefully protested George Floyd’s murder.” He went on to compare former President Donald Trump to a “landlord who denies housing applications because of the color of your skin.”
