Lightfoot Gets Stomped, Tucker & Ukraine, Total TikTok Ban?
Listen to “Lightfoot Gets Stomped, Tucker & Ukraine, Total TikTok Ban?” on Spreaker.
Join Jim and Greg as they cheer 83 percent of Chicago voters for rejecting a second term for Mayor Lori Lightfoot following four years of skyrocketing murders and other violence. They also wade into the divide on the right over what level of aid the U.S. ought to be providing to Ukraine and what impact Fox News host Tucker Carlson is having on the debate due to his intense criticism of Ukraine and NATO. Finally, they discuss a bill making its way through the House of Representatives that would ban TikTok on all devices in the U.S. TikTok is Chinese spyware and having it on any device is a horrible idea. But should the government or individual citizens make that decision?

House Dem Departing, False START, Don Lemon’s ‘Formal Training’
Listen to “House Dem Departing, False START, Don Lemon’s ‘Formal Training'” on Spreaker.
Join Jim and Greg as they welcome the news that a far left House Democrat is leaving in June to take a job in the private sector, leaving Dems with one less vote for five months. They also react to Vladimir Putin announcing that Russia is suspending participation in the most recent START agreement that Biden though was such a grand achievement in 2021. They also wonder what the U.S. is really ready to do if China gets more aggressive in aiding the Russian war effort. Finally, they roll their eyes as Don Lemon is allowed to return to CNN but will be required to undergo “formal training” after his comments about women being past their prime last week. In addition, they take a deeper look into the venomous, sometimes racist comments unleashed against Haley because she happens to be on the political right.

Bipartisan Criticism for Buttigieg, GOP Murders in New Jersey, China’s Balloon Strategy
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.
Chicago Hope? Bipartisan Cowardice, Biden’s Bizarre Challenge
Listen to “Chicago Hope? Bipartisan Cowardice, Biden’s Bizarre Challenge” on Spreaker.
Join Jim and Greg as they welcome a shred of hope that Chicago voters might elect a new mayor who seems much more serious about crime – but they are not holding their breath. They also break down some of the biggest moments from President Biden’s State of the Union on Tuesday – from bipartisan cowardice on entitlements, to Biden’s delusions on energy, and more. Finally, they break down Biden’s stunningly brief and vague comments on China and his bizarre, angry challenge to name one world leader who would want to trade places with Xi Xinping. Short answer? A lot of them.

Big January Jobs Jump, China’s Spy Balloon, Stay Home to Save the Climate?
Listen to “Big January Jobs Jump, China’s Spy Balloon, Stay Home for the Climate?” on Spreaker.
Join Jim and Greg as they welcome a January jobs report showing more than half a million new jobs, although they’re more dubious as to whether Biden deserves the credit. They’re also concerned about the spotting of a Chinese surveillance balloon over Montana near a key military site and discuss Biden’s decision thus far not to shoot it down. Finally, they fume over the Biden administration’s new climate agenda, which seeks to emulate the pandemic-era emissions levels by encouraging working Americans – and even students – to engage from home.

DeSantis vs. Apple, Biden’s Haiti Problem, Will McCarthy Have the Votes?
Listen to “DeSantis vs. Apple, Biden’s Haiti Problem, Will McCarthy Have the Votes?” on Spreaker.
Join Jim and Greg as they cheer Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis for blasting Apple’s nauseating practices of silencing American voices it disagrees with and groveling before the Chinese government by making it harder for protesters there to get their messages out. They also groan as the crisis in Haiti is on the brink of collapse and the Biden administration fails to get other nations to take the lead on the response. And they discuss whether Kevin McCarthy will have the 218 votes needed to become speaker after at least two GOP members say they won’t back him on the House floor come January.
Dems Clearing for Biden? Weak Western Leadership, RNC Leadership Fight
Listen to “Dems Clearing for Biden? Weak Western Leadership, RNC Leadership Fight” on Spreaker.
Join Jim and Greg as they dissect the reversal of the Biden retirement narrative and now Democrats seem to be unifying behind an unpopular president in decline. It might be the GOP’s best chance to win, but it’s no guarantee. They also shake their heads as the Biden administration offers no response to the protests in China and Canada’s Justin Trudeau finds protests designed to change public policy to be “worrisome.” And they wade into the battle to lead the Republican National Committee, assessing the candidacies of current chairman Ronna McDaniel, New York Rep. Lee Zeldin, and My Pillow CEO Mike Lindell. And they bid farewell to one of the great actors from “Die Hard.”
