Progress in Ukraine, Border Crisis Deepens, California’s Crazy Truck Rules

September 1, 2023 by GregC

Listen to “Progress in Ukraine, Border Crisis Deepens, California’s Crazy Truck Rules” on Spreaker.

Join Jim and Greg as they cautiously welcome news of Ukrainian progress against Russians at a key spot along the war front. They also groan as the number of families with children apprehended at the border surged in August – yet another sign that the Biden administration’s policies are nothing but a giant magnet for people to come to the U.S. illegally. Finally, they unload on California for thoroughly implausible new regulations banning diesel-powered big rigs travelling between ports starting next year in favor of electric trucks. From the length of charging time to weight restrictions to the toll on the electrical grid, the impact on trucking – and the prices you pay for goods, the expectations are completely unrealistic. Oh, and they have a few choice words for new members of Transportation Secretary’s Pete Buttigieg’s Advisory Committee on Transportation Equity who think all cars are bad and that they “perpetuate systemic racism.”

Affirmative Action Struck Down, Airline Nightmare, Biden Student Loan Can-Kicking

June 29, 2023 by GregC

Listen to “Affirmative Action Struck Down, Airline Nightmare, Biden Student Loan Can-Kicking” on Spreaker.

Join Jim and Greg for good, bad, and crazy martinis. First they applaud the Supreme Court’s decision to deem Affirmative Action unconstitutional in college admissions. They then blast the FAA, the airlines, and Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg for air travel turning into a miserable experience this summer. Finally, they discuss the recent Biden administration decision to provide a “safety net” for borrowers as student loan payments resume for the first time since the COVID pandemic hit.

Buttigieg’s Bad Day, Consumer Spending Concerns, Marianne Williamson Is Back

February 24, 2023 by GregC

Listen to “Buttigieg’s Bad Day, Consumer Spending Concerns, Marianne Williamson Is Back” on Spreaker.

Join Jim and Greg as they appreciate the National Transportation Safety Board explanation of what really led to the train derailment in Ohio – an ignored warning on an overheated axle and not some left-wing fiction about reckless deregulation. Plus, they discuss what this means for Buttigieg’s political future and how President Biden may have stumbled into a stroke of political genius. They also wince at the latest consumer expenditure numbers suggesting inflation may be stubbornly high for quite a bit longer. And they get a kick out of the news that Marianne Williamson plans to enter the Democratic presidential field, but also wonder whether more prominent figures on the left will follow her lead.

Toxic Train Disaster, Lemon’s Prime Lunacy, Biden Backer’s Bogus Claim

February 16, 2023 by GregC

Listen to “Toxic Train Disaster, Lemon’s Lunacy, Biden Backer’s Bogus Claim” on Spreaker.

Join Jim and Greg as they discuss the frustrating lack of answers from Norfolk Southern railroad or the government for the residents of East Palestine, Ohio, worried about 20 rail cars filled with toxic substances spilling in their community after a derailment. They also light up CNN’s Don Lemon for suggesting that 51-year-old Nikki Haley is past her prime” and so is every woman beyond her twenties, thirties, and maybe forties. The CNN discussion followed Haley’s suggestion that every political figure over the age of 75 be required to take a mental competency test before serving, an obvious reference to President Biden and President Trump. Haley’s idea prompted Delaware Rep. Lisa Blunt Rochester to declare Biden has more energy now than he did in his forties. Jim and Greg aren’t buying it.

Bipartisan Criticism for Buttigieg, GOP Murders in New Jersey, China’s Balloon Strategy

February 9, 2023 by GregC

Listen to “Bipartisan Criticism for Buttigieg, GOP Murders in New Jersey, China’s Balloon Strategy” on Spreaker.

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.

Media Cover for Dems, Biden Doc Conspiracy Theory, Targeting Mitch Daniels

January 13, 2023 by GregC

Listen to “Media Cover for Dems, Biden Doc Conspiracy Theory, Targeting Mitch Daniels” on Spreaker.

Join Jim and Greg as they serve up a bad martini and a couple of crazy ones. First, they sigh as the mainstream press does damage control for the Democrats. Axios contends that Transportation Sec. Pete Buttigieg is just the victim of unfortunate circumstances and Republicans are the real problem for pouncing on his problems. Meanwhile, CNN chalks up the Biden classified document problem to the unease of Trump coming to the White House. They also get a kick out of Georgia Democrat Hank Johnson, who once worried that America’s military presence on Guam might cause the island to tip over, openly suggesting that the classified documents were planted in Biden’s office and garage. Finally, Jim fires back at the Club for Growth for launching an attack as against possible Indiana GOP Senate hopeful Mitch Daniels that greatly distorts his record as Indiana governor and president of Purdue University.

GOP Targets IRS, The Gas Stove Backlash, Airline Agony

January 11, 2023 by GregC

Listen to “GOP Targets IRS, The Gas Stove Backlash, Airline Agony” on Spreaker.

Join Jim and Greg as they serve up two good martinis and a very bad one. First, they cheer House Republicans for making good on their promise to pass legislation repealing funding for 87,000 new IRS agents and building a campaign issue against every Democrat who voted against it – which was all of them. They also shudder at the Biden administration’s attempts to demonize gas stoves as increasing the odds of developing asthma and other ailments, but they are glad to see the intense pushback that appears to have forced the government to back down. Jim also notes an annoying and tedious tactic employed by Democrats on issues like this. Finally, they not only wonder about the health of our aviation sector after today’s major computer problem triggered a ground stop across the nation, but are increasingly sure Transportation Sec. Pete Buttigieg is simply not up to the job.

Lockerbie Suspect to Face Trial, Buttigieg Double Standard, Fetterman’s Strong Fashion?

December 12, 2022 by GregC

Listen to “Lockerbie Suspect to Face Trial, Buttigieg Double Standard, Fetterman’s Strong Fashion?” on Spreaker.

Join Jim and Greg as they cheer the news that a key terrorist suspect in the 1988 bombing of Pan Am Flight 103 over Scotland. They also wonder why Trump HHS Secretary Tom Price was forced to resign for taking private jets at taxpayer expense but Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg can do it and almost no one cares.  Finally, they sigh as the New York Times fawns over Pennsylvania Senator-Elect John Fetterman for his fashion statement of hooded sweatshirts and cargo shorts.

Fauci Finally Leaving, Ugly Dem vs. Dem Primary, Buttigieg Clueless on Flight Delays

August 22, 2022 by GregC

Listen to “Fauci Finally Leaving, Ugly Dem vs. Dem Primary, Buttigieg Clueless on Flight Delays” on Spreaker.

Join Jim and Greg as they welcome the upcoming retirement of Anthony Fauci as they chronicle his soaring ego and willingness to lie when it suited his agenda. They also pop the popcorn as longtime Democrats in the House get ugly in their member vs. member primary in New York City. And they shake their heads as Transportation Sec. Pete Buttigieg tries to talk tough to airlines over their serious delay problems but it’s obvious he really has no solutions.

Back to School in Chicago, Biden Bumbling on Russia, Supply Chain Still Choked

January 11, 2022 by GregC

Listen to “Back to School in Chicago, Biden Bumbling on Russia, Supply Chain Still Choked” on Spreaker.

Jim & Greg welcome the return of in-person schooling to Chicago after a four-day hissy fit from the Chicago Teachers Union. They also sigh as President Biden reportedly makes no progress in trying to deter Russian military action in Ukraine. And the Biden administration gets caught flat-footed again as out supply chain problems grow.
