Dems Face Migrant Reality, GOP’s Avoidable Losses, Gold Bar Bribery?

by

Listen to “Dems See Migrant Reality, GOP’s Avoidable Losses, Gold Bar Bribery?” on Spreaker.

Join Jim and Greg as they welcome Democrats like New York Gov. Kathy Hochul acknowledging that cities and states cannot just accept an unlimited number of illegal immigrants – the same position Republicans were savaged for just a few years ago. They also wince as Republicans lose two very winnable seats in key state legislative races, but they hope other Republicans around the nation learn some important lessons from these defeats. Finally, they’re stunned and more than a bit amused by the news that New Jersey Sen. Bob Menendez is under investigation for being paid $400,000 in gold bars to intervene on someone’s behalf at the Justice Department.

DeSantis Dust Up, Remain in Texas? Tennessee Dems’ Delusion

by

Listen to “DeSantis Dust Up, Remain in Texas? Tennessee Dems’ Delusion” on Spreaker.

Join Jim and Greg as they applaud Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis for verbally smacking down a reporter claiming DeSantis policies are responsible for the recent racially motivated murders in Jacksonville. They also roll their eyes as the Biden administration considers forcing illegal immigrant families to “remain in Texas” now that Democrats running sanctuary cities and states are begging for the influx of migrants to stop in their communities. Finally, they get a good laugh as, Gloria Johnson, one of the so-called “Tennessee Three” who led a protest onto the floor of the state legislature and disrupted proceedings to demand gun control, challenges Sen. Marsha Blackburn and Democrats try to convince themselves that Johnson has a good shot of winning.

Sanctuary City Reality Check, Putin-Kim Connection? Ban Trump from the Ballot?

by

Listen to “Sanctuary City Reality Check, Putin-Kim Connection? Ban Trump from the Ballot?” on Spreaker.

Join Jim and Greg as they credit Texas Gov. Greg Abbott and Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis for making sanctuary cities and states understand a fraction of the stress that a flood of illegal immigration creates on our nation. But are the right lessons being learned? They also keep an eye on reports that Vladimir Putin and North Korean Dictator Kim Jong-Un may soon meet, allegedly as part of Putin’s effort to use North Korean weapons against Ukraine. Finally, they cast a dubious eye as the left ramps up talk of banning Donald Trump from running for president again due to the 14th Amendment’s insurrection clause.

Progress in Ukraine, Border Crisis Deepens, California’s Crazy Truck Rules

by

Listen to “Progress in Ukraine, Border Crisis Deepens, California’s Crazy Truck Rules” on Spreaker.

Join Jim and Greg as they cautiously welcome news of Ukrainian progress against Russians at a key spot along the war front. They also groan as the number of families with children apprehended at the border surged in August – yet another sign that the Biden administration’s policies are nothing but a giant magnet for people to come to the U.S. illegally. Finally, they unload on California for thoroughly implausible new regulations banning diesel-powered big rigs travelling between ports starting next year in favor of electric trucks. From the length of charging time to weight restrictions to the toll on the electrical grid, the impact on trucking – and the prices you pay for goods, the expectations are completely unrealistic. Oh, and they have a few choice words for new members of Transportation Secretary’s Pete Buttigieg’s Advisory Committee on Transportation Equity who think all cars are bad and that they “perpetuate systemic racism.”

Oregon Ready to Repeal, Housing Market Headaches, Assessing Vivek

by

Listen to “Oregon Ready to Repeal, Housing Market Headaches, Assessing Vivek” on Spreaker.

Ricochet Editor-in-Chief Jon Gabriel is in for Jim. Today, Jon and Greg follow up on a recent martini and welcome even more evidence that Oregon voters are ready to reverse the 2020 referendum that gave people possessing hard drugs like heroin and fentanyl a small fine instead of jail time. A new poll shows a strong majority of Oregon voters ready for a full repeal or significant changes to the law. They also cringe at the state of the housing market as interest rates keep rising and the inventory of houses on the market plummets compared to pre-pandemic levels. Finally, they take a closer look at Vivek Ramaswamy and whether recent controversies about his statements on Israel and Taiwan are unfair to him or whether Vivek is not ready for the big stage.

Trump Booked, Toxic Paper Straws, Hiring Discrimination Suits, NY Begs for Migrant Aid

by

Listen to “Trump Booked, Toxic Paper Straws, Hiring Discrimination Suits, NY Begs for Migrant Aid” on Spreaker.

Hillsdale College Radio General Manager and Radio Free Hillsdale Hour Host Scot Bertram is in for Jim. Today, Scot and Greg discuss a new study showing toxic chemicals are used to repel water in most paper and bamboo straws. They also dive into two curious employment discrimination suits: five current and former Gannett newspaper employees charge the organization with policies that discriminate against white employees. And the Justice Department is suing Elon Musk’s SpaceX for not hiring alleged refugees and asylum seekers and only hiring U.S. citizens or legal residents.  Finally, they sigh as New York Gov. Kathy Hochul follows the nonsensical lead of Massachusetts and demands federal aid for housing, education, and health care while also urging expedited work authorization. Scot and Greg point out that will only create a bigger stampede of people trying to enter the U.S. illegally.
Timestamps:
1:10 – Trump booked in Atlanta.
4:32 – Study shows toxic chemicals are found in many paper straws

‘Manufactured’ Climate Crisis, Another Massive Deficit, Deutsch’s Trump Delusion

by

Listen to “‘Manufactured’ Climate Crisis, Another Massive Deficit, Deutsch’s Trump Delusion” on Spreaker.

Ricochet.com Editor-in-Chief Jon Gabriel is in for Jim. Today, Jon and Greg welcome the story of climate scientist Judith Curry, who confirms that the scientific “consensus” on climate change is a “manufactured consensus.” They also get a good laugh out of the proposal from Pacific Gas & Electric to stabilize California’s energy grid. Then they blast both parties as the annual deficit is already more than $1.6 trillion with two more months to go. Finally, they document the hysteria on MSNBC’s “Morning Joe” as Donny Deutsch contends that “everything will end” and freedom will end” if Donald Trump wins in 2024.

Solar Panel Surprise, The Migrant Emergency, Subway’s Name Change Game

by

Listen to “Solar Panel Surprise, The Migrant Emergency, Subway’s Name Change Game” on Spreaker.

Hillsdale College Radio General Manager and Radio Free Hillsdale Hour Host Scot Bertram is in for Jim today. Join Scot and Greg as they dig into an Italian study showing solar panels generate far more carbon dioxide than natural gas, and that the United Nations never took Chinese statistics into account – even though it produces 80 percent of solar panels. They also sigh as Massachusetts Gov. Maura Healey announces a state of emergency due to the number of migrants pouring into her state. But instead of blaming the issue on the Biden administration’s porous border or refusal to deport, she chalks it up to the government being too slow to approve work authorization for the migrants. Finally, they end on a lighter note by discussing the promotion from the Subway sandwich chain that will land the winner $50,000 in Subway gift cards in exchange for changing their name to Subway.

The State of the 2024 Presidential Campaign

by

Listen to “The State of the 2024 Presidential Campaign” on Spreaker.

Election Day 2024 is more than 16 months away, but the first Republican debate is less than two months away and voters in the first primary and caucus states will be casting their ballots in just a few months. Today, Jim and Greg examine the state of the campaign in three different ways.
First, they look at the Democratic primary. While President Biden has a commanding lead over Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. and Marianne Williamson, the enthusiasm – even among Democrats – is very low for another four years of Biden. Will the Democrats stick with Biden regardless of his approval numbers and mounting evidence of physical and mental decline?
Then they pivot to the Republican primary, where former President Trump has opened a big lead over Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis both nationally and increasingly in the states. Is the GOP base loyalty towards Trump locked in and virtually irreversible or is there an avenue for DeSantis or anyone else to close the gap.
Finally, they preview a likely Biden-Trump rematch and consider how much the electorate has changed in the past few years. Will Biden’s poor performance be enough of a boost for Trump or will Trump’s focus on 2020 and his legal challenges lead to another four years for Biden?

Durham’s Dire Warning, Crime-Ridden Cities, Pandemic Learning Loss Persists

by

Listen to “Durham’s Dire Warning, Crime-Ridden Cities, Pandemic Learning Loss Persists” on Spreaker.

Ricochet Editor-in-Chief Jon Gabriel is in for Jim today. Join Jon and Greg as they welcome Special Counsel John Durham’s congressional testimony about the FBI’s deeply flawed Crossfire Hurricane investigation and how the Bureau used information it knew was false to obtain FISA warrants on Trump campaign figures. They also appreciate Durham saying that a few cosmetic policy changes at the FBI won’t solve anything, and that there needs to be much more accountability there – especially at the higher levels. They also cringe as the latest Washington, D.C. crime statistics show a big increase over last year and as Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson prioritizes taxpayer-funded housing for illegal immigrants over addressing the Windy City’s huge crime problem. Finally, they sigh as the latest testing shows 13-year-olds declined markedly in math and reading skills compared to testing done before the pandemic.
