McCarthy’s Energy Focus, Marianne’s Temper, Barney Frank Gets A Pass

by

Listen to “McCarthy’s Energy Focus, Marianne’s Temper, Barney Frank Gets A Pass” on Spreaker.

Join Jim and Greg as they welcome the House GOP effort to reinvigorate the American energy sector. But they know getting it into law is going to be very difficult. They also react to the Politico report alleging Marianne Williamson is a terror as a boss and routinely flew off the handle and berated staff during her 2020 campaign. Does this matter much in a Democratic primary that’s expected to be a blowout? And did this story arise organically or the Biden team decide to nuke Williamson before she even gets started? Finally, Jim explains how former Rep. Barney Frank would be the villain of the recent bank collapse scandal if he were a Republican. But he’s a Democrat so the media flogging will probably never come.

Stronger Alliances, Moody’s Downgrades U.S. Banks, Trump’s Puzzling Attack

by

Listen to “Stronger Alliances, Moody’s Downgrades U.S. Banks, Trump’s Puzzling Attack” on Spreaker.

Join Jim and Greg as they welcome stronger ties among the U.S., UK, and Australia, as the U.S. promises to deliver nuclear-powered submarines to the Aussies made with Rolls Royce engines from Great Britain. How much of a check might it be on Chinese ambitions in the region. They also recoil as Moody’s downgrades confidence in our banking system from “stable” to “negative” while the Democrats try to blame the SVB collapse on GOP policies with a very weak argument. Finally, they shake their heads as President Trump asserts that Florida was already great before Gov. Ron DeSantis took office. But it’s his praise of Republican-turned-Democrat Charlie Crist that is raising the most eyebrows. We’ll examine the progress made by multiple Republican governors there and why DeSantis deserves plenty of credit for his time in office.

GOP Senate Jockeying, Choosing Feelings Over Merit, Davos Elitists Assemble

by

Listen to “GOP Senate Jockeying, Choosing Feelings Over Merit, Davos Elitists Assemble” on Spreaker.

Join Jim and Greg as they welcome new developments in two key Senate races. First, they are intrigued by popular GOP West Virginia Gov. Jim Justice seriously considering a challenge to Sen. Joe Manchin in 2024. They also discuss Indiana Rep. Jim Banks announcing he will seek the open U.S. Senate seat in Indiana, which is already held by Republicans. They also fume as multiple school districts in Northern Virginia fail to tell National Merit Finalists of their awards out of fear of making those who didn’t receive the honor feel badly. But they do cheer Gov. Glenn Youngkin for blasting the administrators in three separate districts for their decisions. Finally, they shudder as the supposed elites gather at the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland, to decide what sacrifices we’re supposed to make in order to advance their global agenda.

Biden’s Credibility Crisis, Dem Agenda in Danger, Psaki’s Border Blather

by

Listen to “Biden’s Credibility Crisis, Dem Agenda in Danger, Psaki’s Border Blather” on Spreaker.

Join Jim and Greg as they welcome the surprising analysis from NBC’s Chuck Todd that Pres. Biden had a major credibility problem on many different issues. They also smile at reports that Democrats fear they won’t be able to pass the $3.5 trillion monstrosity in its entirety or maybe at all, and they point out just one truly absurd provision in the bill that would impact all of us. And they highlight White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki for her ridiculous contention that illegal immigrants are not planning to stay long in the United States.

Ellison’s Exit, Entitlements Implode & America Yawns, Obama’s New Iran Lie

by


Jim Geraghty of National Review and Greg Corombos of Radio America welcome the news that outspoken liberal Rep. Keith Ellison is leaving the House of Representatives to run for statewide office in Minnesota, a venture they sincerely hope ends in failure.  They also lament that Medicare and Social Security are getting closer to insolvency and neither lawmakers nor most Americans seem all that concerned about it.  They also highlight yet another lie perpetrated by the Obama administration in getting the Iran nuclear deal done, this time allowing Iran access to U.S. banks while adamantly telling lawmakers it would not do so.

The Impact of the Interest Rate Cuts

by

On Wednesday, the Federal Reserve cut interest rates by half a percentage point. The move was made in concert with similar moves at national banks in several other countries.  So what did this accomplish?  Who is expected to benefit the most?  What else can we expect from the Fed?  And is this great time or a dangerous time to buy a home?  We ask David John, Senior Research Fellow at the Heritage Foundation.
