The issue has come to a head, with a little known women’s rights organization urging Vice President Kamala Harris to think twice. In a headline blaring: ‘Gov. Shapiro’s Failures Enabled Sexual Harassment,’ the National Women’s Defense League said in a statement that the Harris vetting team should ‘consider the handling of past complaints of sexual harassment inside the Pennsylvania Governor’s office.’ The group claims to be a nonpartisan organization dedicated to preventing sexual harassment.” You can read the full article here: https://www.thedailybeast.com/womens-group-to-harris-dump-shapiro-over-sex-case-cover-up 6:30pm- Rich is actually HERE on a summer Friday…but he reveals he may not be here next Friday…

It sentenced him in a hurried and secret three-day trial to 16 years in a high-security penal colony.” Rich notes that it’s wonderful that Gershkovich has been released but wonders why Pennsylvania school teacher Marc Fog

The Rich Zeoli Show- Hour 4: 6:05pm- What’s So Great About Josh Shapiro?: Jonathan Chait of New York Magazine writes: “Kamala Harris has the luxury of several promising options for her vice-presidential nominee, but the discussion has focused inordinately on Pennsylvania governor Josh Shapiro. The reason for this, I think, is that Shapiro has some weaknesses that make him distasteful to some potential Harris voters… Democrats have two main sources of concern with Shapiro, one small and one large. The small concern is that he endorsed a school-voucher plan… The more serious criticism centers on his comments on anti-Israel protests since October 7, which he has denounced.” You can read the full article here: https://nymag.com/intelligencer/article/josh-shapiro-vice-president-moderate-popular-governor-pennsylvania-palestine-kamala-harris.html 6:15pm- Women Don’t Want Shapiro: Mary Ann Akers—Deputy Washington Bureau Chief for The Daily Beast—reports: “Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro is the betting favorite to be N

The Q&A started off with ABC’s Rachel Scott ostensibly accusing Trump of being a racist.
