Listen to “The Border Nightmare, Biden Bows to China, Manchin for President?” on Spreaker.
Join Jim and Greg as they serve up two very bad martinis and a crazy but intriguing one. First, they fume as Title 42 ends and the Biden administration offers nothing but lies, gaslighting, and blame shifting to explain the tidal wave of people headed into our country illegally. They also hammer President Biden and the State Department for pulling back on consequences for China’s spy balloon episode and and continuing to withhold consequences for the Chinese genocide against the Uighurs and measures designed to restrain Huawei. Finally, they dig into growing speculation that West Virginia Sen. Joe Manchin may be preparing to mount a third party bid for president in 2024.
It’s another good, bad, and crazy day, as Chad Benson sits in for Greg Corombos again.
Chad and Jim Geraghty find it hilarious that the city of San Francisco concluded that after six years, their boycott of red states has had no impact whatsoever on those states, has significantly increased costs and red tape for the city, and repealed the boycott.
Meanwhile, it’s good that an ISIS mastermind who killed Americans during the withdrawal from Afghanistan was killed, but Chad and Jim wonder how the Taliban found that terrorist before the U.S. did.
Finally, the White House is formulating an official strategy to rebuild Kamala Harris’ image, which is a crazy thing for an 80-year-old president to have on his to-do list as he’s trying to convince America for four more years.

Join Jim and Greg for four martinis today, as they begin with the breaking news that Tucker Carlson and Fox News Channel are going their separate ways effective immediately. Then it’s on to the regularly scheduled martinis, starting with both the Wall Street Journal and New York Times raising the alarm about Biden running for a second term at his age and mental state. The Journal says Biden is in “obvious decline.” Then they shudder at a Washington Post story revealing the Islamic State has a home in Afghanistan and his actively plotting attacks in Asia and Europe and is doing aspirational plotting against the United States. Finally, they discuss the frenzied damage control at Anheuser-Busch after losing billions in market share after celebrating the “womanhood” of transgender figure Dylan Mulvaney.
Join Jim and Greg as they once again offer bad and crazy martinis. First, they fume over upcoming changes to mortgage fees that will force homebuyers with really good credit scores to pay more so that buyers with shaky credit scores have lower costs. They also shake their heads as once again the Biden State Department is caught off guard by a civil war where it’s too late to evacuate Americans – this time in Sudan. Finally, as 14 percent of Americans who voted for President Biden last time now support Democratic presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. Jim unloads on Kennedy and explains why his candidacy is not good for America.
Listen to “House Hearings Expose Infuriating Truth on COVID, Afghanistan” on Spreaker.
You might need something stronger than a martini as Jim and Greg dig into three big stories today. First, they respond to the congressional testimony of former CDC Director Dr. Robert Redfield, who said our top officials knew from the start that COVID likely came from a lab leak and then knowingly pushed a false narrative that the virus naturally occurred. And the maddening truth doesn’t stop there. Then they tackle the gut-wrenching testimony of a U.S. Marine Corps sniper stationed at Abbey Gate on the day of the terrorist attack during the chaotic withdrawal from Afghanistan. Sgt. Tyler Vargas-Andrews says he and others had the bomber spotted and were ready to take him out but they never had permission to fire. And his frustration grew even more when no one in our government wanted to hear his story. Finally, Jim dissects California Gov. Gavin Newsom’s condemnation of Walgreen’s for refusing to sell abortion-inducing drugs in states where the retailer might get sued. Jim explains how Newsom frequently ignores the most basic responsibilities of governing and how he tries to distract his constituents from his terrible record.
Join Jim and Greg as they welcome House Foreign Affairs Committee Chairman Michael McCaul’s vow to get answers on the Biden administration’s debacle in Afghanistan. McCaul says the administration has been stonewalling on providing documents on how U.S. intelligence was so wrong on the advance of the Taliban, the deadly attack on U.S. service members outside the Kabul airport, and much more. They also shudder as a new report shows the U.S. is dangerously deficient in producing new weapons to replace the many munitions we’re sending over to Ukraine. In other words, if the U.S. got involved in sustained military action, we could run out of key weapons in less than a week. Finally, they shake their heads as Chicago Mayor Lori Lightfoot’s solution to the wave of street vendor robberies is to tell them not to conduct business in cash.
It’s media day in our year-end Three Martini Lunch awards and Jim and Greg have plenty to say about how things were covered – if they were covered at all. Specifically, they look at the stories the mainstream media covered far too much, the ones they conveniently ignored because they didn’t fit their narrative, and they highlight what they saw as the best stories of 2022.
