What We’re Politically Thankful for in 2023

by

Listen to “What We’re Politically Thankful for in 2023” on Spreaker.

Continuing their long Thanksgiving tradition, Jim and Greg unveil their lists of things they are politically thankful for, although this year they don’t stick as close to politics as they have in past years. Jim reflects on last week’s Pro-Israel march in Washington and the stark contrast to the hateful and often violent demonstrations we’ve seen from the left for many years. Greg explains why he’s thankful for Virginia Gov. Glenn Youngkin despite a disappointing year for Republicans in the commonwealth.
Then it gets more personal, as Jim discusses how thankful he is for his family and that we never know how many Thanksgivings they will have together. He urges you to find common ground with your loved ones beyond politics. Greg echoes Jim’s thoughts but also highlights the many aspects of life for which we need to be thankful and to Whom we need to be thankful.
Finally, Jim gives thanks for the gift of humor to help us through one difficult news cycle after another, while Greg is grateful for the states giving parents more options on where to send their kids to school and how to pay for it.
There will be no episode of the 3 Martini Lunch on Thanksgiving Day. Join us the next day for our Black Friday special, when Jim and Greg select gifts for various political figures.

Remembering Mrs. Carter, Big Libertarian Win in Argentina, Biden’s Polls Get Worse, Media Malpractice on Debt

by

Listen to “Remembering Mrs. Carter, Big Libertarian Win in Argentina, Biden’s Polls Get Worse, Media Malpractice on Debt” on Spreaker.

Join Jim and Greg as they serve up three critical martinis after opening with thoughts on the passing of former First Lady Rosalynn Carter, who died Sunday at age 96.

Then they react to libertarian Javier Milei’s dominant win in Argentina’s presidential race amid a massive economic crisis there. They also note Milei’s unconventional approach to politics and the media’s reflexive opposition to him.

They also chronicle a Fox News poll showing showing voters trust Republicans to deal with issues ranging from the border to foreign policy and from crime to government spending – by a wide margin. And an NBC poll shows President Biden with his worst numbers yet. But can Republicans actually capitalize on all this?

Finally, they fume as Politico shifts from constantly demonizing any GOP calls for spending restraints to suddenly noticing out-of-control spending and huge interest payments on the debt – and are now demanding the House GOP majority do something about it.

Jim in Taiwan: The Chinese Threat, Strong Defenses, Earthquakes & Innovation

by

Listen to “Jim in Taiwan: The Chinese Threat, Strong Defenses, Earthquakes & Innovation” on Spreaker.

Jim spent more than a week in Taiwan, getting first-hand briefing and answers to key questions about how our ally is bracing for a possible Chinese invasion. Today, Jim briefs us on what he learned – the good the bad and the crazy.

First, Jim explains the significant advantages Taiwan has in the event of Chinese aggression. From the physical characteristics of the island to the massive urban setting and even jungle conditions in other areas, China would face a hostile environment in addition to a hostile population.

Then Jim details the sobering assessment that China will likely attack within the next several years. He also shares how Taiwan’s lack of formal independence gives it a second-class status in several important ways – from the United Nations to being ignored by Interpol and the World Health Organization.

Finally, Jim reveals some of the intense and amusing sidelights, from being caught in an earthquake to the quirks of other journalists on the trip to his overt jealousy of the superior engineering of Taiwanese toilets.

NY Voters & the Migrant Crisis, U.S. Military Attacked in Middle East, AP & VOA Won’t Call Hamas Terrorists

by

Listen to “NY Voters & the Migrant Crisis, U.S. Military Attacked in Middle East, AP & VOA Won’t Call Hamas Terrorists” on Spreaker.

Hillsdale College Radio General Manager and Radio Free Hillsdale Hour Host Scot Bertram is in for Jim. Today, Scot and Greg muse over the latest twists and turns in the House Speaker race as Louisiana Rep. Mike Johnson seems to be in position to get elected by his fellow Republicans today. Then it’s on to the martinis! First, they welcome a strong majority of New York voters agreeing with NYC Mayor Eric Adams that the illegal migrant crisis is going to destroy the city. And they overwhelmingly disapprove of how the Biden administration is handling the issue. They also recoil at the news Iranian proxies have launched drone attacks at U.S. positions in Syria and Iraq, injuring two dozen U.S. personnel. And they’re also mad that the government kept this information from the public for a week. Finally, they scold the Associated Press and taxpayer-funded Voice of America for telling their reporters not to refer to Hamas as terrorists.

Sen. Feinstein Dies, The Looming Shutdown, Trump’s Absurd Debate Demand

by

Listen to “Sen. Feinstein Dies, The Looming Shutdown, Trump’s Absurd Debate Demand” on Spreaker.

Join Jim and Greg as they react to the news of California Sen. Dianne Feinstein dying at the age of 90 after years of health issues. They walk through Feinstein’s career, point out her reliable liberal votes and her moments of collegiality with Republicans and hostility to GOP judicial nominees. Finally, they reflect on her decision to stay in office as her health problems mounted but also remember one moment that gave conservatives a smile. In other news, Jim and Greg consider the looming government shutdown as the fiscal year comes to a close and the House Republicans, who missed their opportunity to be in a much stronger negotiating position against Senate Democrats and President Biden. Finally, they slam former President Trump’s suggestion that the Republican National Committee should just cancel the rest of the primary debates and move on to helping him with the general election.

Abortion & Free Speech, Lockdowns & Job Skills, Gov. Christie & Bon Jovi

by

Listen to “Abortion & Free Speech, Lockdowns & Job Skills, Gov. Christie & Bon Jovi” on Spreaker.

Hillsdale College Radio General Manager and Radio Free Hillsdale Hour Host Scot Bertram is in for Jim. Today, Scot and Greg are relieved to see a judge strike down an Illinois law calling for the prosecution of pregnancy centers if they deceive or give out “misinformation” to women contemplating abortion. And the law never explains what qualifies as “misinformation.” They also shudder at a Wall Street Journal story highlighting how pandemic learning loss contributed to an erosion of very basic skills. So employers are now teaching young employees how to make change and how to look customers in the eye. Finally, they roll their eyes as Chris Christie bestows Ukrainian President Zelensky Jon Bon Jovi’s handwritten lyrics to “It’s My Life.”

Timestamps:

1:00 – Scot’s “pro-tip” about what not to do if you mow over a hornet’s nest.

2:12 – Federal judge blocks an Illinois law that would prosecute pregnancy centers for presenting “misinformation” to women considering abortion.

They also shudder as officials disclose the 20+ diseases and other undetermined liquids, serums, and more that were found in a an unlicensed California biolab. Finally, they sigh as Mexico and Guatemala warn their citizens to be careful visiting Washington, D.C., because of the rampant crime.

China’s Curious Timing, No Cocaine Culprit, Disney’s Decline

by

Listen to “China’s Curious Timing, No Cocaine Culprit, Disney’s Decline” on Spreaker.

Jim and Greg end the week with all crazy martinis. First, they look into allegations that China-related donations to the University of Pennsylvania soared immediately after Joe Biden established the Biden Center there following his time as vice president. They also don’t buy the U.S. Secret Service concluding that it will never be able to determine who is responsible for the cocaine found at the White House. Finally, they dissect the decline in people visiting Disney theme parks this summer – and the explanation is actually pretty simple.

‘Center Store’ Inflation, China Hacks Us Again, Chicago’s Recipe for Disaster

by

Listen to “‘Center Store’ Inflation, China Hacks Us Again, Chicago’s Recipe for Disaster” on Spreaker.

Join Jim and Greg as they detail why many people are getting more stressed about prices for essential items even though the overall inflation numbers are cooling. They highlight a piece from National Review’s Noah Rothman explaining how “center store” inflation is still a big problem. They also wince at the news China successfully hacked the Commerce Department, including the emails of Sec. Gina Raimondo, and also parts of the State Department. Finally, they groan as Chicago’s new far-left mayor wants to address crime by killing a gang database because of racial disparities and choosing to prioritize the infusion of social workers over actually enforcing laws.
