Undisputed King of Stuff, columnist, and longtime Ricochet Editor-in-Chief Jon Gabriel is in for Jim today as he and Greg serve up a full round of bad/crazy martinis after giving a well-deserved shoutout to Florida for showing it is possible to interdict illegal immigration.
In their first crazy martini, they highlight Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders introducing legislation lowering the work week to just 32 hours but also demanding no drop in pay. In addition to the economic insanity, Jon points out that this runs afoul of America’s strong work ethic.
They also roll their eyes at the latest story suggesting Americans need to stop eating so much beef and dairy because cattle are supposedly responsible for the low water levels in the western U.S. due to the growing of plants that cattle eat. Jon and Greg are not buying that premise and suggest some more obvious reasons that water levels are down.
Finally, they dig into Jon’s latest column for Discourse magazine focusing on how unenthused voters are about a Biden-Trump rematch. Jon explains what that apathy might mean in 2024 and why it’s important to vote even if you don’t love your options at the top of the ticket.

Undisputed King of Stuff, columnist, and longtime Ricochet Editor-in-Chief Jon Gabriel is in for Jim today as he and Greg enjoy a fantastic good martini, an infuriating bad one, and more media insanity.
First, Jon and Greg sit back and relish Texas Republican Rep. Wesley Hunt savaging the Democrats’ talking points that requiring voters to present a photo ID to vote is somehow racist, discriminatory, or burdensome. Rep. Hunt effectively and cleverly refers to his own experience as a black man in procuring photo ID’s and the proof in Georgia that secure elections don’t equal voter suppression.
Then, they unload on Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer for castigating Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu from the Senate floor, with Schumer labeling Netanyahu an “obstacle to peace” and demanding new elections in Israel. And while he demands new elections and a change in Israeli leadership, Schumer assures us that the U.S. would never, ever interfere in those elections.
Finally, they react with horror to the gang-fueled anarchy unfolding in Haiti and the humanitarian crisis that seems headed our way. But they also pause to note the insanity of NBC News blasting “right wing influencers” for pointing out some of these gangs have a history of cannibalism – rather than criticizing the gangs themselves.

Former Chief Assistant U.S. Attorney and National Review Contributing Editor Andy McCarthy is in for Jim today. Andy and Greg dive into the law, congressional politics, and how the presidential campaign and the NFL might intersect this year.
First, Andy analyzes Special Counsel Robert Hur’s Tuesday testimony before the House Judiciary Committee. He explains why Adam Schiff was dead wrong to suggest Hur was playing politics by discussing Biden’s faulty memory in his report on Biden’s mishandling of classified information. He also dismisses Rep. Jayapal and others for wrongly insisting that the Hur report “exonerates” Biden, noting the facts of the report and that it’s not the job of a prosecutor to exonerate anyone.
But in reflecting on questions from the GOP side and the report itself, Andy outlines why he thinks Hur’s ultimate conclusions were wrong.
Next, they react to Colorado Rep. Ken Buck announcing his impending resignation from the House of Representatives. The move will leave the GOP with an even slimmer 218-213 margin with four special elections still to come. Andy suggests this move is quite telling about the battle for the future of the Republican Party.
Finally, they get a kick out of reports that Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. is speaking “pretty continuously” with New York Jets quarterback Aaron Rodgers about Rodgers serving as Kennedy’s running mate for his independent presidential bid.

Former Chief Assistant U.S. Attorney and National Review Contributing Editor Andy McCarthy is in for Jim and provides a wealth of historical and first-hand context to our three topics today.
First, Andy and Greg assess Special Counsel Robert Hur’s testimony surrounding the timeline confusion in Biden’s testimony over allegations that he mishandled classified information. Hur’s testimony puts the lie to Biden’s angry denunciation that he was asked when his son died. Instead, Biden volunteered it and got it wrong.
Andy also points out that Biden was found to be mishandling sensitive information for decades, including his time in the Senate. And he explains why Biden being in possession of classified info from his Senate days proves that Biden – and not his staff – is responsible for him having those documents. He also provides critical background information into another notorious example of a Democrat being caught red-handed illegally taking classified information.
Next, they shudder as FBI Director Christopher Wray confirms in Senate testimony that the bureau is actively investigating allegations that human smugglers with ties to ISIS are actively moving people at our southern border. Andy says this should come as no surprise and he shares the stunning immigration enforcement incompetence that allowed the terrorist mastermind of the 1993 World Trade Center bombing to enter the U.S. illegally – even after being directly linked to a high-profile assassination overseas.
Finally, they zero in on California Rep. Adam Schiff suggesting that Donald Trump should received “dumbed down” intelligence reports as the GOP presidential nominee because of the classified charges pending against him. Andy says this would not be the first time the intel community played favorites in a presidential election involving Trump, and he recalls why Schiff is the least credible advocate for this argument against the former president.

Jim and Greg serve up a clarifying good martini plus conventional bad and crazy ones to wind up the week.
First, they offer a timely reminder of Biden’s promises from 2020 on border security, sanctuary cities, and who ought to be deported. The comments explain why we saw the border crisis explode on his watch and suggest his recent get tough approach is only a political maneuver.
They also cringe as stellar national security reporter Catherine Herridge is ordered to pay fines of $800 per day for refusing to divulge her sources on a story connection a U.S.-based scientist with the Chinese Communist Party.
Finally, they groan in reaction to the race already beginning to replace Senate GOP Leader Mitch McConnell, even though the conference elections aren’t until November, we have no idea how many Republicans will be in the Senate, and how many current ones will still be there.

Join Jim and Greg as they break down what Biden is reportedly considering on the border, the interest on our debt rapidly spiraling out of control, and an ex-GOP campaign figure telling Dems to declare Biden a “great” president.
First, they assess an Axios story about how Biden is considering executive action that could significantly reduce the number of people illegally flooding into our country. He allegedly wants to claim that he taking action on the issue while Republicans just talk about it. Taking this action would not only confirm what conservatives have been screaming this for years about executive action, but, if done right, would actually do some good – even if it’s only an election year ploy.
Then they fume at the news that paying off the quickly accumulating interest on our $34 trillion+ national debt will cost more than defense spending this year. Higher interest rates are the reason for the higher payments, but reckless spending is the reason that higher interest rates were needed. And neither party has any interest in even discussing possible remedies for our debt.
Finally, they get a big laugh out of former Republican campaign official turned Lincoln Project figure Stuart Stevens pleading with Democrats to go beyond arguing that Biden is preferable to Trump and start declaring Biden to be a “great” president.
