Jim and Greg are pleasantly surprised to see bipartisan Senate criticism aimed at Transportation Sec. Pete Buttigieg over the Southwest Airlines meltdown over the holidays and the recent FAA computer problem that briefly grounded all flight in the U.S. They also cringe as a second local Republican official in New Jersey is murdered within a week. Whether politically motivated or not, the lack of interest from mainstream media outlets speaks volumes. Finally, Jim highlights his excellent reporting on numerous Chinese spy balloons over the U.S. and our allies in recent years. He also explains why the balloon going over Alaska should have raised many red flags – just as many as the balloon going over the continental U.S.

Chicago Hope? Bipartisan Cowardice, Biden’s Bizarre Challenge
Listen to “Chicago Hope? Bipartisan Cowardice, Biden’s Bizarre Challenge” on Spreaker.
Join Jim and Greg as they welcome a shred of hope that Chicago voters might elect a new mayor who seems much more serious about crime – but they are not holding their breath. They also break down some of the biggest moments from President Biden’s State of the Union on Tuesday – from bipartisan cowardice on entitlements, to Biden’s delusions on energy, and more. Finally, they break down Biden’s stunningly brief and vague comments on China and his bizarre, angry challenge to name one world leader who would want to trade places with Xi Xinping. Short answer? A lot of them.

Ignoring Entitlements, Trump Balloon Confusion, State of Boredom
Listen to “Ignoring Entitlements, Trump Balloon Confusion, State of Boredom” on Spreaker.
Join Jim and Greg as they present two bad martinis and a crazy one. First, they highlight House Speaker Kevin McCarthy saying Social Security and Medicare cuts are not on the table in the fight over the debt ceiling. That rebuts Biden’s false accusation but it also highlights how neither party has any intention of doing the work necessary to shore up these programs headed towards insolvency. They’re also dizzy from the conflicting explanations of Chinese spy balloons during the Trump years. After Biden officials saying Trump did nothing about three different balloons, we now have some saying the U.S. never detected those balloons while other defense and intelligence officials reportedly did know but chose not to tell President Trump. Finally, they groan and brace for the political drudgery and theater known as the State of the Union address.

Big January Jobs Jump, China’s Spy Balloon, Stay Home to Save the Climate?
Listen to “Big January Jobs Jump, China’s Spy Balloon, Stay Home for the Climate?” on Spreaker.
Join Jim and Greg as they welcome a January jobs report showing more than half a million new jobs, although they’re more dubious as to whether Biden deserves the credit. They’re also concerned about the spotting of a Chinese surveillance balloon over Montana near a key military site and discuss Biden’s decision thus far not to shoot it down. Finally, they fume over the Biden administration’s new climate agenda, which seeks to emulate the pandemic-era emissions levels by encouraging working Americans – and even students – to engage from home.

Bash Grills Booted Dems, Left’s Disinformation Con Job, Trump’s Shutdown Whiff
Jim and Greg give credit to CNN’s Dana Bash for asking tough questions of the three House Democrats House Speaker Kevin McCarthy wants booted from their sensitive committees – and their answers were rather unconvincing. They also react to the latest “Twitter Files,” exposing the powerful left-wing group Hamilton 68, which declared many Twitter accounts to be Russian bots or peddling Russian disinformation, when the vast majority were real people who just disagreed with the left’s narrative on various issues. Finally, they react to President Trump’s bizarre accusation that Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis locked down his state far too long during the COVID pandemic, when the evidence is strongly to the contrary, and discuss why Trump is pursuing this line of attack.
Iowa Chooses School Choice, Adams’ Border Complaints, Schiff’s Senate Run
Listen to “Iowa Chooses School Choice, Adams’ Border Complaints, Schiff’s Senate Run” on Spreaker.
Join Jim and Greg as they cheer Iowa becoming the latest state to pass sweeping school choice legislation which gives parents more options on where and how to educate their kids and creates more competition for our schools. They also groan as New York City Mayor Eric Adams complains about the burden placed on his city to deal with the flood of people who entered the nation illegally. The buses from red state governors are a drop in the bucket compared to the numbers of migrants being shuttled all over the nation by the federal government. They also react to Rep. Adam Schiff’s TikTok video complaining about his ouster from the House Intelligence Committee, which he immediately turned into a fundraising pitch just in time for his new campaign for the U.S. Senate. And Jim reacts to the speculation that Aaron Rodgers could be headed to the New York Jets.
