The Rich Zeoli Show

The Rich Zeoli Show- Full Episode (04/16/2025): 3:05pm- While speaking with the press from the Oval Office alongside President Donald Trump on Monday, El Salvador President Nayib Bukele revealed that he has no plans to return Kilmar Abrego Garcia who was deported to El Salvador after the Trump Administration determined he was in the U.S. illegally and a member of the gang MS-13.

Though, after the error is corrected, Abrego Garcia would ultimately be eligible for deportation anyway.

The Trump Administration also noted that because Abrego Garcia is a citizen of El Salvador, they have no recourse if Bukele denies their request for release. 3:10pm- In posts to social media, Senator Chris Van Hollen (D-MD) documented his trip to San Salvador, El Salvador where he hoped to negotiate the release of Kilmar Abrego Garcia. During an interview with Fox News, Attorney General Pam Bondi emphasized that Abrego Garcia is not a “Maryland man” as the “liberal media” continues to insist. She continued: “He’s a guy from El Salvador who is a part of one of the most violent gangs in our country.” 3:30pm- Zeoli Show action figures, Matt gets yelled at for misreading a text message, and Rich promotes his numerous appearances on television. 3:40pm- On Tuesday night during the opening day of the Democratic National Convention in Chicago, former President Joe Biden delivered his first public speech since leaving office.
