FedEx Fights Back, Prince Andrew’s Assinine Excuses, Mayor Pete’s Major Mistake

by

Listen to “FedEx Fights Back, Prince Andrew’s Assinine Excuses, Mayor Pete’s Major Mistake” on Spreaker.

Happy Monday!  Jim is in a good mood after a Jets win on Sunday and he’s fired up for all three martinis.  First, Jim and Greg applaud FedEx CEO Fred Smith for fighting back against smears from the New York Times that accused his company of evading taxes thanks to the recent tax reforms.  They also shred Prince Andrew for his absurd defenses against accusations he was connected to Jeffrey Epstein’s pedophile ring, including Andrew’s explanation that he stayed at Epstein’s house against his better judgment because he is “too honorable.”  And they break down the sloppy, clueless effort of the Pete Buttigieg campaign to connect with black voters in the 2020 campaign.

Dem Debate: Warren Gets Whacked, New Tax Nightmare, Tulsi’s Impeachment Twist

by

Listen to “Dem Debate: Warren Gets Whacked, New Tax Nightmare, Tulsi’s Impeachment Twist” on Spreaker.

Chad Benson, host of “The Chad Benson Show,” borrows Jim’s stool again today.  In this episode, Chad and Greg break down the latest Democratic presidential debate.  First, they get a kick out of watching Elizabeth Warren squirm out of answering whether she would raise taxes on the middle class to pay for government-run health care and watching mild-mannered Amy Klobuchar and Pete Buttigieg hammer her for not answering.  They also groan and protect their wallets as Warren pitches her wealth tax yet again and Andrew Yang counters by touting the horrendous value-added tax.  They note how Tulsi Gabbard was the only Democrat on stage who admits President Trump won in 2016 and thinks impeachment will only help Trump in 2020.  And they have fun with some of the really bad answers candidates gave when asked to name people who think differently than them but have had a profound impact on their lives.

Indiana Abortion Investigation, Kamala’s Kavanaugh Hysteria, NYT Damage Control

by

Listen to “Indiana Abortion Investigation, Kamala’s Kavanaugh Hysteria, NYT Damage Control” on Spreaker.

Jim Geraghty of National Review and Greg Corombos of Radio America welcome word that a federal investigation will be opened into how a prominent Indiana abortion provider allied with Pete Buttigieg ended up with more than 2,000 fetal remains in his home.  They also shake their heads as Kamala Harris not only calls for Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh to be impeached but also contends that Christine Blasey Ford was “treated like a criminal” and that the Kavanaugh confirmation created a “crisis of confidence” in the Supreme Court.  And Jim has plenty to say as the two New York Times reporters behind the latest Kavanaugh allegation insist their original article included the fact the supposed victim has no memory of the incident but their editors took it out of the story.

Listen to “Gravel Gets Out, Biden’s Big Exaggeration, Mayor Pete Targets Filibuster” on Spreaker.

Jim Geraghty of National Review and Greg Corombos of Radio America welcome the exit of Democratic presidential candidate Mike Gravel, revealing he was never really running in the first place. They also push back strongly against Joe Biden’s assertion that white supremacists are winning the culture war. And they have plenty to say after Pete Buttigieg claims the Senate filibuster must be scrapped because it stopped a background check bill from passing in 2013.

Booker vs. Buttigieg, Code Pink Sides with Maduro, Feminist Sex Strike

by

Listen to “Booker vs. Buttigieg, Code Pink Sides with Maduro, Feminist Sex Strike” on Spreaker.

Alexandra DeSanctis of National Review and Greg Corombos of Radio America grab some popcorn as supporters of Sen. Cory Booker blast the media for giving far more attention to Pete Buttigieg, calling the coverage gap the epitome of privilege.  They also slam Code Pink for commandeering the Venezuelan embassy in Washington in solidarity with dictator Nicholas Maduro and but get a kick out of Code Pink howling in protest when the water and power are cut off – some of the very same conditionsMaduro is inflicting on the people of Venezuela.  And Alexandra highly enjoys the irony as Alyssa Milano and other modern feminists protest state laws banning abortion once a fetal heartbeat is detected by refusing to have sex so they don’t get pregnant.

Listen to “Venezuelan Coup Attempt, Abrams Rejects Senate Bid, Mayor Pete Conspiracy Flops” on Spreaker.

Jim Geraghty of National Review and Greg Corombos of Radio America pray for the best in Venezuela as opposition leader Juan Guaido urges the military to rise up against the corrupt, socialist Maduro regime.  They also roll their eyes as Stacey Abrams still plays the victim card of voter suppression while announcing she will not be running for U.S. Senate in 2020.  And they condemn the attempt to cook up a fake sex scandal targeting Democratic presidential hopeful Pete Buttigieg.

Does the Electoral College Overturn the Will of the People?

by

Listen to “Does the Electoral College Overturn the Will of the People?” on Spreaker.

Many Democrats, including several presidential hopefuls, are advocating an end to the Electoral College, so why do we have it in the first place and what would happen if we ditched it for the national popular vote?

Pete Buttigieg is the latest Democrat urging the abolition of the Electoral College, telling a crowd at his campaign launch that the Electoral College has overturned the will of the people twice in his lifetime, referring to the 2000 and 2016 presidential elections.

Does the Electoral College overturn the will of the people or is it actually a better representation of the nation as a whole than the one man-one vote argument?

In this podcast, we cover that question with Trent England, director of Save Our States.  England explains why we have the current system, why have states have diminished in importance compared to the time of the American founding, and why states vowing to allocate their electoral votes to the winner of the national popular vote are really the ones disenfranchising their voters.
