School Choice Success, Biden's Border Horrors, Huge Government Waste, Lefties Leaving Twitter 3 Martini Lunch podcast

25:11

Join Jim and Greg for Tuesday’s 3 Martini Lunch as they have a great time breaking down a series of jaw-dropping stories. They dig into Massachusetts Sen. Elizabeth Warren’s awkward admission about Biden’s mental decline, a far-left Minnesota prosecutor refusing to charge a leftist state employee who seriously vandalized numerous Teslas, and explosive allegations that Klaus Schwab grossly misused World Economic Forum resources. Plus, they uncover a Die Hard connection to another of the day’s biggest stories. First, they thoroughly enjoy watching a progressive podcast host grill Sen. Warren over her insistence that she didn’t notice signs of President Biden’s cognitive struggles before last year’s debate. Warren ultimately tried to deflect, but Jim and Greg explain why this backpedaling will haunt Democrats and the media for a long time. Next, they’re stunned by prosecutor Mary Moriarty’s refusal to press charges against Dylan Adams, a Minnesota state employee accused of deliberately vandalizing six Teslas—causing $20,000 in damage. Adams will face no jail time and even gets to keep his government job. Jim notes the frustration of local police and the damage done when intentionally criminal behavior is swept under the rug due to politics. Then, they dive into the allegations against outgoing World Economic Forum leader Klaus Schwab and his wife, who are accused of stealing substantial funds from the WEF and taking over a luxury property owned by the organization during COVID lockdowns.

Matching Menendez Convictions, China Helping Houthis Target U.S. Ships, Will DOJ Charge Cuomo? 26:38

26:38

Join Jim and Greg for the 3 Martini Lunc h as they dig into Nadine Menendez’s conviction in the same egregious corruption scandal that will soon send her husband, former New Jersey Democratic Sen. Bob Menendez, to prison. They also cover new reports of a Chinese-linked company aiding the Houthis in targeting U.S. ships, and House Republicans pressing the Justice Department to prosecute former Gov. Andrew Cuomo for lying to Congress about his COVID-era nursing home cover-up. First, they're pleased to see Nadine Menendez found guilty on all 15 counts tied to a bribery scheme involving her husband, the Egyptian government, and over $100,000 in gold bars, cash, and other luxury gifts. Now Mr. and Mrs. Menendez have matching bracelets. Jim blasts the media for largely ignoring the case—arguing that if Bob Menendez were a Republican, this scandal would dominate headlines daily. They also wonder whether Bob Menendez's begging for a pardon will actually convince President Trump to give him one. Next, they react to alarming reports that a Chinese government-linked company is assisting the Iran-backed Houthis in targeting U.S. warships and other American vessels in the Red Sea. Jim calls it another front in a proxy war with China and was forced to find foreign press accounts to evaluate the effectiveness of recent U.S. airstrikes. Finally, they look at House Republicans urging Attorney General Pam Bondi to charge Andrew Cuomo with lying under oath. Despite this and a $450,000 taxpayer-funded settlement to a sexual harassment victim, Cuomo continues to lead the NYC mayoral race by a wide margin.

Pope Francis Dies, Dems' New El Salvador Stunt, Hogging the DNC Spotlight 25:09

Jim Geraghty is back! Join Jim and Greg for 3 Martini Lunch as they discuss the death of Pope Francis, more Democrats preparing to grandstand in El Salvador, and David Hogg stirring internal tension within the DNC. Plus, Jim offers a quick update on where he was last week. First, they react to the passing of Pope Francis, who died just hours after attending Easter Sunday services at the Vatican. Jim and Greg reflect on Francis's 12-year papacy—highlighting how his comments on cultural and political issues often energized progressives before being walked back by Vatican officials. They also discuss how his views on climate change, wealth redistribution, and illegal immigration often frustrated conservatives. And they humorously clarify that Vice President J.D. Vance had nothing to do with the pope’s passing. Next, they unpack a trip planned by four House Democrats to El Salvador to advocate for Kilmar Abrego Garcia. Jim criticizes the media's portrayal of Garcia as a harmless "Maryland Dad," drawing parallels to past sympathetic framing of problematic figures. He agrees Garcia should return to the U.S. for legal proceedings—before being deported back to El Salvador where he belongs. Finally, they enjoy the drama unfolding within the Democratic Party as David Hogg announces plans to back challengers to numerous sitting Democrats. His efforts are already causing stress within the DNC, with many Democrats pushing back and defending their incumbents. It’s shaping up to be quite the primary season—popcorn, anyone?

Jim and Greg's Political Spring Cleaning: The Policies and Politicians We Want to Throw Out 23:40

23:40

Jim and Greg are off for Good Friday but they've also been busy lately doing some spring cleaning—but not around the house. Greg is tossing out outdated policies, messages, and organizations, while Jim is ready to send a few politicians packing. First, Greg targets the type of taxes he finds most infuriating. He's not a fan of any taxes but there's one he finds particularly burdensome and fundamentally unfair. Jim, meanwhile, celebrates the quiet departure of a Republican who dominated headlines late last year but is now largely forgotten—and not missed. Next, Greg shifts his focus to education, identifying a major obstacle to our schools that, if eliminated, would greatly benefit students and restore academic integrity. Jim highlights a once-promising politician who failed to deliver, faced numerous legal issues, and appears headed for a huge political defeat this year. Finally, Greg turns to the lighter side and takes aim at some of the most irritating TV commercials. While he is a huge fan of free speech, Greg explains why these ads are especially grating and need to go. Jim reflects on a political figure who has already stepped away from the spotlight—but wonders how long before he fades from public view altogether.

IRS Eyes Harvard, Bernie Boosts Socialist in Key Senate Race, Clooney's 'Brave' Biden Letter 26:52

Hillsdale College Radio General Manager and Radio Free Hillsdale Hour Host Scot Bertram fills in for Jim on 3 Martini Lunch . Join Scot and Greg as they dig into the IRS possibly revoking Harvard’s tax-exempt status, Bernie Sanders backing a truly radical Senate candidate in Michigan, and CNN’s over-the-top praise for George Clooney’s 2024 call to replace Joe Biden. First, they analyze reports that the IRS may strip Harvard of its tax-exempt status. Scot emphasizes that this issue should be treated separately from the Biden administration’s efforts to withhold federal funds over the school’s failure to meet anti-Semitism standards. The guys also mull over whether such an action by the IRS would make it easier for a future Democrat administration to take aim at conservative institutions, or whether the left will do that regardless of what the right does now. Next, they spotlight Bernie Sanders endorsing far-left candidate Abdul El-Sayed for U.S. Senate in Michigan. El-Sayed is known for supporting government-controlled health care, taxpayer-funded college (dubbed "free" college by the left), and for his hostility toward Israel. But Scot cautions that El-Sayed is an articulate speaker, boasts a successful medical background, and could receive glowing media coverage similar to Barack Obama back in 2004. Finally, they call out CNN’s Jake Tapper for heaping excessive praise on George Clooney’s “brave” letter to the New York Times editor urging Democrats to replace Joe Biden after last year’s debate. Scot and Greg see it as a transparent effort by the media and left-wing elites to rewrite history and pretend it was impossible to know about Biden's cognitive decline before the debate.

ICE's Ingenious Arrest, UK Court Confirms Gender Reality, Tables Turn on Letitia James 23:57

Former Chief Assistant U.S. Attorney and National Review Contributing Editor Andy McCarthy is in for Jim on Tuesday’s 3 Martini Lunch . Join Andy and Greg as they dig into ICE’s clever move to apprehend a Columbia protest leader, the UK Supreme Court’s affirmation of reality concerning biological sex, and the legal spotlight now shining on New York Attorney General Letitia James for behavior strikingly similar to what she prosecuted Donald Trump for last year. First, they applaud ICE agents for their creative tactics in apprehending Columbia University student and anti-Israel protest organizer Mohsen Mahdawi by summoning him under the guise of a naturalization interview. Andy also breaks down the legal distinctions between citizens and non-citizens when it comes to speech that incites hate. Greg highlights how mainstream media continue to spin radical activists like Mahdawi into sympathetic figures. Next, they're pleasantly surprised over the UK Supreme Court’s ruling affirming that sex is binary—just male and female. Considering the dominance of gender ideology in the UK and elsewhere, the decision wasn’t guaranteed. The ruling stemmed from a case designed to clarify DEI policies in Scotland, so there's still a long way to go. Andy explains how his legal background helps interpret such cultural shifts. Greg adds that if momentum keeps building for biological truth, expect many elites to pretend they never supported the opposite. Finally, they react to news that New York Attorney General Letitia James is under federal investigation for mortgage fraud and falsifying financial records— the same offenses she charged Trump with in 2023. Authorities say she claimed a Virginia property as her permanent residence, which could disqualify her from her role. She also missated the number of units existed in another property. Andy closely followed the frivolous case against Trump and is stunned that James would have brought those charges forward with this kind of baggage in her own background.

Trump vs. Harvard, Deportations & Due Process, The Left's Green Promises Fail Again 33:06

9 днів тому33:06

Former Chief Assistant U.S. Attorney and National Review Contributing Editor Andy McCarthy joins Greg for Tuesday’s 3 Martini Lunch . Today, they tackle Harvard's complaining about the Trump administration's demands, the legal fight over an illegal immigrant deported to El Salvador, and fresh evidence that the left’s climate promises don’t add up. First, they highlight Harvard’s response to having more than $2 billion in federal grants frozen for refusing to comply with Trump administration orders targeting antisemitism and more. Andy questions why a wealthy institution like Harvard relies on taxpayer dollars at all, but also warns against government overreach—regardless of party. Meanwhile, Greg notes the irony of Harvard objecting to federal pressure when the left regularly uses it to punish conservative schools and organizations. Next, they examine the legal fight surrounding Kilmar Abrego Garcia, an illegal immigrant deported to El Salvador and now imprisoned there. A federal judge has ruled that Garcia must be returned to the U.S. due to a violation of his due process rights. Andy explains why the court is legally correct and critiques the White House’s arguments on the issue. Greg questions why the U.S. government makes it so easy for people to enter illegally but so difficult to remove them. Andy points to the man he says is responsible for this mess. Finally, they dissect a Washington Post analysis revealing that many “green” home retrofits don’t produce energy savings for years—or even decades. Andy argues this underscores how the environmental left’s agenda is filled with economic and environmental contradictions. He also points out that some of these so-called green initiatives are actually terrible for the environment in many ways.

Former Chief Assistant U.S. Attorney and National Review Contributing Editor Andy McCarthy is in for Jim on today’s 3 Martini Lunch . Join Andy and Greg as they dig into the latest developments surrounding a Columbia University grad student facing deportation, a chilling arson attack at the Pennsylvania governor’s residence, and former Washington Post columnist Taylor Lorenz’s disturbing praise of an alleged murderer. First, they discuss an immigration judge in Louisiana agreeing that Columbia University graduate student and anti-Semitic campus agitator Mahmoud Khalil can be deported. Andy explains how U.S. law is clear that aliens and citizens are treated differently under the law in this situation and that aliens can be deported if they are threatening national security. Andy also tees off on political lefties who argue the law in question is seldomly used. Next, they react to the shocking case of an arsonist breaking into the Pennsylvania governor’s residence on the first night of Passover. The intruder reportedly set the home on fire while Gov. Josh Shapiro and his family were inside. Greg and Andy express hope for swift justice and transparency, while Andy suggests we already offer some strong clues about the motivation for this attack. Finally, they assess Taylor Lorenz gushing over alleged murderer Luigi Mangione to a CNN reporter. From Lorenz calling Mangione a morally good person to CNN's reporter giggling along with her explanation of why some women are enamored with Mangione, Andy explains why this spectacle is a bad sign for our society and highlights how some elements on the left are far too comfortable with political violence.

GOP Protects Consumer Freedom, Dems' SAVE Act Silliness, The Clash Over Clock Changing 28:45

13 днів тому28:45

28:45

Hillsdale College Radio General Manager and Radio Free Hillsdale Hour Host Scot Bertram fills in for Jim on 3 Martini Lunch . Join Scot and Greg as they discuss the GOP’s push for consumer freedom, Democrats’ extreme opposition to making sure only citizens can vote, and President Trump’s call to make Daylight Saving Time permanent. First, they praise President Trump’s executive order restoring consumer choice over showerhead water pressure, along with a U.S. Senate vote to repeal a Biden-era rule targeting gas-powered water heaters. Scot and Greg see these moves as a strong rejection of the left’s absurd climate agenda and unnecessary government interference in everyday life. Next, they cheer the House passage of the Safeguard American Voter Eligibility (SAVE) Act, which would require proof of citizenship to vote in federal elections. Democrats are leveling bizarre claims that the bill would disenfranchise married women who changed their names. Scot and Greg dismantle those arguments and call out Rep. Eric Swalwell and others for resorting to profanity and theatrics to act like they're fighting hard against the GOP. Finally, as President Trump calls for making Daylight Saving Time (DST) permanent, Scot explains why permanent Standard Time makes far more sense if you're going to make one time permanent. He also points out that America tried year-round DST back in the 1970s and hated it. And, while neither of them particularly enjoy the time changes, Scot and Greg also wonder why so many people are suddenly obsessed with this issue when nobody really seemed to care about it a generation ago.

Trump's Tariff Decision, Trump Praises Gov. Whitmer, Fake Students Stealing Your Tax Dollars 24:02

Hillsdale College Radio General Manager and Radio Free Hillsdale Hour Host Scot Bertram fills in for Jim on 3 Martini Lunch . Join Scot and Greg as they break down President Trump’s latest tariff moves, the surprisingly cordial exchange between Trump and Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer, and the alarming surge of fake college students defrauding taxpayers. First, they analyze President Trump’s announcement that he will pause most of the tariffs announced last week for the next 90 days, while sharply increasing tariffs on China. Other nations will see a temporary reduction to 10 percent. Greg points to the value of singling out China economically, while Scot highlights how Trump’s approach reflects two consistent patterns in his approach to leadership. Next, they react to Trump’s unexpected praise for Democratic Gov. Gretchen Whitmer, calling her “a very good person” and saying she’s done “an excellent job.” While many conservatives in Michigan strongly disagree, Whitmer echoed support for reshoring manufacturing and expressed understanding of Trump’s tariff policy. Scot and Greg explore what’s behind this odd development and how it could impact Whitmer’s likely 2028 presidential run and more. Finally, they expose how scammers are siphoning off millions in taxpayer-funded financial aid by enrolling fake students in California’s community college system. Estimates show up to 34 percent of community college applicants in the state may have fraudulent in the most recent statistics. But Scot reveals how the colleges are also bending over backwards trying not to remove these fake students. Please visit our great sponsors: BetterHelp sponsors this podcast.

Maryland Ends EV Mandate, Dems' Election Hypocrisy, Judge Sides with AP vs. Trump 27:10

Undisputed King of Stuff and Sink the Rising Sun author Jon Gabriel fills in for Jim today. Join Jon and Greg on 3 Martini Lunch as they discuss Maryland reversing its electric vehicle mandate, Democratic attorneys general taking President Trump to court over his executive order on election security, and a federal judge forcing the White House to reopen full access to the Associated Press. First, they applaud Maryland Gov. Wes Moore for walking back the state’s EV mandate, which would have required 43 percent of new vehicle sales to be electric starting with 2027 models. Moore pointed to the Trump administration suspending funding for EV charging stations—a program that received $7.5 billion under President Biden and produced only eight chargers nationwide. But Jon and Greg also note that just 13 percent of new car sales in Maryland are EVs, highlighting how many Americans simply don’t want them. Next, they criticize the 19 Democratic state attorneys general suing President Trump over his new executive order to strengthen election security, including a requirement to show proof of citizenship to register to vote. While election rules are primarily left to the states and Congress has some oversight, Jon and Greg are stunned by Democrats’ continued opposition to even the most basic voter integrity measures—opposition that’s likely to flare again soon with the SAVE Act. Finally, they slam on a federal judge’s ruling requiring the Trump White House to grant Associated Press reporters access to spaces like the Oval Office and Air Force One. Jon and Greg argue this is not a First Amendment issue and question why a court would be involved with this at all. They also express fatigue with the White House press corps constantly acting the victim every time the White House does something reporters don't like.

Americans Demand Smaller Government, How the Tariffs Hurt Russia, Stephen A. Smith for President? 27:24

16 днів тому27:24

27:24

Join Jim and Greg for 3 Martini Lunch as they discuss breaking news in the New Hampshire Senate race, a poll showing strong public demand for lower federal spending, how Trump-era tariffs may end up weakening Russia, and the strange presidential buzz surrounding ESPN’s Stephen A. Smith. First, just two days after President Trump publicly backed former New Hampshire Gov. Chris Sununu for U.S. Senate, Sununu has announced he will not enter the race. Jim and Greg briefly assess how this could impact Republican chances of flipping the seat in 2026. Next, they dig into a new Wall Street Journal poll showing more than two-thirds of Americans want federal spending cut. While not all support the GOP’s approach, the poll confirms deep frustration with nearly $37 trillion in national debt and massive annual deficits. Jim questions how many Americans would agree on where to cut, while Greg recalls the narrow political window when this debt crisis might have been averted in the 1990s. Then, they're pleased to see one way Trump’s tariff strategy is already creating pressure on Russia. One of the side effects of the new policy is that oil prices are down significantly since last week. Jim tells us how sustained lower prices could spell big trouble for Putin economically and militarily. Finally, they roll their eyes at growing chatter about ESPN personality Stephen A. Smith running for president in 2028. And now Smith himself is saying he's starting to think about it. Smith gained attention last year for supporting Kamala Harris but frequently calling out Democrats for being out of touch - especially on some key cultural issues. Jim and Greg dismiss the hype and even joke that Smith wouldn’t be the best presidential pick at ESPN. Please visit our great sponsors: BetterHelp sponsors this podcast. Your well-being is worth it.

Join Jim and Greg for Monday’s 3 Martini Lunch as they discuss President Trump urging former New Hampshire Gov. Chris Sununu to run for U.S. Senate in 2026, confusion among Trump’s own advisers over the purpose and length of the latest tariffs, and new reporting on how The Atlantic ’s Jeffrey Goldberg ended up in a classified White House Signal chat about Yemen. First, they break down President Trump’s full support for former New Hampshire Gov. Chris Sununu for U.S. Senate in 2026. Trump also revealed that he and Sununu had spoken about the race in the Oval Office. It’s a notable shift in their relationship, which has previously been tense. They also examine the likely Democratic opponent and key dynamics that could shape the race. Next, Jim analyzes the weekend talk show appearances by several Trump administration officials attempting to explain the new tariffs. He demonstrates how Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent, NEC Director Kevin Hassett, trade adviser Peter Navarro, and Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick offered conflicting statements about the tariffs’ purpose, duration, and expected economic impact. Finally, they react to the apparent explanation for how Jeffrey Goldberg gained access to a White House Signal chat about military strikes in Yemen. They dig into the details and why this explanation makes more sense, but Jim still warns that private messaging apps like Signal are not secure enough for these discussions.

Join Jim and Greg for 3 Martini Lunch as they discuss Iran pulling troops out of Yemen under U.S. pressure, a poll showing Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez crushing Sen. Chuck Schumer in a hypothetical primary, and NYC Mayor Eric Adams now running for re-election as an independent as the Democrats choose from a horrible list of candidates. First, they welcome reports that U.S. strikes in Yemen have forced Iran to pull out its forces. Jim contrasts this development with The New York Times coverage, which criticizes the cost of U.S. munitions. They also enjoy hearing that the Iranians still have no idea how to deal with President Trump and are very nervous about him. Next, they examine new polling that shows Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez dominating Sen. Chuck Schumer in a potential 2028 New York Democratic Senate primary. While they thoroughly enjoy watching Schumer twist in the political wind, Jim says the left's fascination with AOC proves that image, style, and "vibes" are becoming far too important in how people choose whom to vote for. Finally, they react to New York City Mayor Eric Adams announcing his re-election run as an independent. But they're also repulsed by the dismal field of Democratic contenders, including disgraced former Gov. Andrew Cuomo and avowed socialist city council member Zohran Mamdani. Greg predicts Mamdani will soon become the progressive media’s latest darling.
