Join Jim and Greg for 3 Martini Lunch as they discuss a new climate report that the left will immediately ignore, the economy shrinking slightly in the first quarter, and the Democrats turning to hilarious methods to kick David Hogg out of his DNC leadership position.
First, they spotlight a new report from the University of Exeter showing that polar ice levels have remained remarkably consistent over the past two decades. It also aligns with research showing the climate is cyclical and polar ice levels rise and fall as these cycles play out. Jim and Greg contrast this data with the apocalyptic projections of Al Gore and others over the past few decades.
Next, they wince as the U.S. economy (GDP) contracted by 0.3 percent. They also point out that the decline was overwhelmingly driven by a huge increase in imports as countries raced to get their products here before the Trump tariffs kicked in. Without the surge in imports, we likely would have seen GDP increase by more than three percent. What does this news tell us about where the economy is heading from here?
Finally, they have a lot of fun watching the Democratic National Committee turn to identity politics in it’s latest, obvious attempt to run David Hogg out of its leadership. There is now a challenge to Hogg’s election back in January. One of the candidates he defeated says the election process was unfair to women of color. Jim and Greg have some fun imagining what the DNC will look like if this woke approach is followed to its natural conclusion.
