The Middle East; Dock Worker Strike; RFK Jr.

by

Listen to “The Middle East; Dock Worker Strike; RFK Jr.” on Spreaker.

 

Join Jim and new guest host Craig Collins as they chew over the best news in the Middle East in ages, the realization that “Hezbollah and Hamas are paralyzed temporarily and Iran is exposed and unable to defend itself.”

Meanwhile, the dockworker strike continues, and the leader of the union continues to sound like a character from HBO’s “The Penguin,” pledging to cripple the American economy.

Finally, in the crazy martini, Jim and Craig contemplate the odd report that the Trump campaign might distance themselves from Robert F. Kennedy Jr. because of his additional womanizing, and ask the country’s women a difficult question: Ladies… why are so many of you swooning over RFK Jr?

Red Tsunami Warning Ahead

by

Listen to “Red Tsunami Warning Ahead” on Spreaker.

As Chad Benson’s week of sitting in for Greg comes to a close, everything is coming up roses for the Republicans in the midterms – the GOP gubernatorial candidates are enjoying a well-timed late surge of momentum, a slew of Senate seats that once seemed out of reach are now in play, and not only are Democratic candidates avoiding Joe Biden, they’re keeping their distance from Kamala Harris and the Clintons.

by

Listen to “GOP Hopes Rising in New York, Chaos in the UK, and the Weird Non-Debate in Arizona” on Spreaker.

Chad Benson remains in for Greg Corombos, and the midterms are heating up. Chad and Jim wonder whether Kathy Hochul’s shrinking lead in New York is significant, gaze across the Atlantic at a leadership crisis in the United Kingdom, and wonder why Arizona Democratic gubernatorial candidate Katie Hobbs is so scared to get on a debate stage with Kari Lake.

China’s ‘Wolf Warrior’ Misfire, NYC’s Delayed Democracy, Tucker Carlson’s NSA Shenanigans

by

Listen to “China’s ‘Wolf Warrior’ Misfire, NYC’s Delayed Democracy, Tucker Carlson’s NSA Shenanigans” on Spreaker.

Jim and guest host Chad Benson applaud China for realizing that insulting all of your neighbors does not garner influence. They are also bewildered by the incompetency of the vote counting in NYC’s Democratic primary which is expected to last until July 6. Lastly, they ponder the merit of Tucker Carlson’s claim that the NSA is spying on his show.

Dems Cooling on Court Packing? Louisville on Edge, Barrett Bashing Begins

by

Listen to “Dems Cooling on Court Packing? Louisville on Edge, Barrett Bashing Begins” on Spreaker.

Join Jim and Greg as they welcome Sen. Dianne Feinstein – the top Democrat on the Senate Judiciary Committee – saying she opposes ending the legislative filibuster. Without killing the filibuster, Democrats would be unable to add seats to the Supreme Court, but is Feinstein sincere or is she just worried about touting court packing before the election? They also brace for a violent day or more in Louisville as officials announce whether police officers will face charges for the shooting death of Breonna Taylor in March. And they unload on media outlets for not only beginning to attack possible Supreme Court nominee Amy Coney Barrett but for getting the story spectacularly wrong.

Bloomberg Bites the Dust, Sad Night for Socialists, Trump Trolls Sessions

by

Listen to “Bloomberg Bites the Dust, Sad Night for Socialists, Trump Trolls Sessions” on Spreaker.

It’s a wild Wednesday Three Martini Lunch as we recap the events of Super Tuesday.  Join Jim and Greg as they relish the very expensive implosion of Michael Bloomberg, who spent hundreds of millions of dollars for one win in American Samoa while getting creamed in all 14 states before dropping out of the race on Wednesday. While they have plenty of concerns about Joe Biden, they are glad to see socialism take one on the chin Tuesday, as Bernie Sanders fell far below expectations and won just four states. They also detail how the past week and a half proves Sanders is actually a really bad politician. And they cringe as President Trump trolls former Attorney General Jeff Sessions upon the news Sessions is headed to a runoff for the nomination.

Score One for Freedom, Bloomberg’s Brazen Lie, Trusting the Taliban

by

Listen to “Score One for Freedom, Bloomberg’s Brazen Lie, Trusting the Taliban” on Spreaker.

Jim Geraghty of National Review and Greg Corombos of Radio America welcome the news that Hong Kong – at the direction of Communist China – has withdrawn the extradition bill that sparked massive protests, but they’re still not sure this story will have a happy ending.  They also pummel Bloomberg News and reporter Ben Penn for forcing the resignation of a Department of Labor appointee over an “anti-Semitic” social media post that wasn’t anti-Semitic at all.  And Jim is not at all impressed with the apparent peace plan in Afghanistan, which seems to amount to little more than trusting the Taliban not to commit terrorism or harbor terrorist groups.
