Portland Dumps Woke DA, Michigan GOP’s Petition Mishaps, College Students Resist Reading

by

Listen to “Woke Portland DA Dumped, Michigan GOP’s Petition Mishaps, College Students Resist Reading” on Spreaker.

Greg and Jim dive into the latest conservative victories in the justice system, the Michigan GOP’s latest trouble with accusations of  fraudulent signatures, and the rise of college students’ mulish insistence on not completing assigned reading.
First, they kick off the episode with a double fisted martini: woke Portland DA Mike Schmidt looks like he will be ousted from office for his soft-on-crime policies. Additionally, Georgia Supreme Court Justice Andrew Pinson successfully fended off the challenge of former Rep. John Barrow, who campaigned primarily on a pro-abortion platform.
Next, they sigh and shake their heads at the Michigan GOP, which never seems to learn its lesson, as candidates are coming under fire for allegedly committing ballot signature fraud once again. They examine the poor condition that much of state-level GOP management has fallen into, in Michigan and beyond, and why gathering petition signatures is one of the most basic parts of politics.
Finally, they find themselves bewildered by the latest trend among college students, who are constantly demanding that professors lower coursework expectations and workload. They point out the paradox that, while Ivy League schools are getting more and more selective, college students across the board are learning less and show poorer work ethic than past generations.

Fetterman’s Moral Clarity, Clueless Campus Protesters, UCLA’s ‘Health Equity’ Insanity

by

Listen to “Fetterman’s Moral Clarity, Clueless Campus Protesters, UCLA’s ‘Health Equity’ Insanity” on Spreaker.

Jim is back today and fired up to discuss Pennsylvania Sen. John Fetterman’s resolute denunciation of Hamas, the utter cluelessness of some student protesters, and UCLA Medical School’s insane “health equity” class.

First, they applaud Sen. Fetterman for highlighting the 200 days since Hamas slaughtered at least 1,200 Jews, raped many others, and took hundreds hostage, including Americans. As Hamas posts video of one hostage – who now only has one arm – Fetterman explains very clearly how the Israel-Hamas war could be over instantly.

Next, they salute the college presidents and political leaders who have done an effective job at shutting down anti-Israel protests that refuse to leave private property. And they point out multiple examples of these college students knowing next to nothing about why they’re protesting and what the basic facts are about war in the Middle East.

Finally, they just shake their heads as a “health equity” class at UCLA Medical School teaches aspiring doctors that weight loss is a “hopeless endeavor” and that “obesity” is a slur “used to exact violence on fat people.”

GOP Freshman’s Big Lies, Taliban Bars Women from College, Stanford’s Speech Police

by

Listen to “GOP Freshman’s Big Lies, Taliban Bars Women from College, Stanford’s Speech Police” on Spreaker.

Join Jim and Greg as they serve up three crazy martinis today! First, they dig into the curious case of the GOP congressman-elect who calls himself George Santos, after the New York Times discovered that multiple parts of his personal story appear to be fabricated. And all Santos can offer in reply is the pathetic claim that it’s all a political attack. They also shudder as the Taliban bans women from attending university in Afghanistan and all the U.S. can say in response is that this might damage the Taliban’s standing in the international community.  Finally, they react to Stanford University’s “Elimination of Harmful Language Initiative,” which wants to end our use of words like American, ladies, guys, and many more words and phrases constantly used without any ill intent.

New Polls Pound Dems, Maryland’s Smart Hiring Change, Senate Wants DST Permanent

by

Listen to “New Polls Pound Dems, Maryland’s Smart Hiring Change, Senate Wants DST Permanent” on Spreaker.
Join Jim and Greg as they analyze new polls showing President Biden’s energy agenda is deeply unpopular and that a majority of Americans agree with controversial Florida legislation blocking students from kindergarten through third grade from being taught about gender identity and sexual orientation. They congratulate Maryland Gov. Larry Hogan for enacting common sense policy that allows applicants without a college degree to be considered in the state hiring process and suspect Democrats are not being completely honest in why they oppose the bill. We might soon be saying goodbye to changing those clocks as Sens. Marco Rubio and Ed Markey pass a bill making daylight saving time permanent. And they cringe as President Biden struggles to make basic introductions at a public event.

Cubans Demand Freedom, Massive Master’s Degree Debt, Kamala & Kinkos

by

Listen to “Cubans Demand Freedom, Massive Master’s Degree Debt, Kamala & Kinkos” on Spreaker.

Jim & Greg cheer on the Cubans taking to the streets to demand their freedom, despite the very real threat of punishment from the government. They also shake their heads at a new Wall Street Journal report showing the massive amount of debt Master’s degree students are piling up and then not getting the lucrative jobs they dreamed about. And they get a kick out of Vice President Kamala Harris being reluctant to support voter ID requirements because she believes Americans in rural areas don’t have access to photocopiers.

Cuomo’s COVID ‘Metaphor,’ Kasich’s Unconvincing Argument, College COVID Insanity

by

Listen to “Cuomo’s COVID ‘Metaphor,’ Kasich’s Unconvincing Argument, College COVID Insanity” on Spreaker.

Join Jim and Greg as they hammer New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo for referring to COVID as a metaphor and for continuing to portray himself as some sort of disease conqueror when his state suffered far more than any other. They also discuss John Kasich crossing over to endorse Joe Biden and why his arguments that Biden won’t cave in to the far left has already been proven false. And they have fun with Albion College’s insane rule that students have to stay in a 4.5 mile perimeter for the entire semester.

Join Jim and Greg as they lament the Big Ten Conference reportedly cancelling the 2020 college football season and that puts every other conference on the brink as well. They also unload on Chicago Mayor Lori Lightfoot as rioters vandalize and loot along the city’s Magnificent Mile and attack and injure more than a dozen police officers. And they discuss former San Francisco Mayor Willie Brown publicly urging former mistress Kamala Harris to decline the opportunity to be Joe Biden’s running mate.

Young Conservatives Fight Back Against Socialist Push

by

Listen to “Young Conservatives Fight Back Against Socialist Push” on Spreaker.

Socialism is getting increasingly popular.  A recent Gallup poll shows 49 percent of Millennials and Gen Z have a favorable view of socialism.  Other surveys show as many as 57 percent embrace it.  And while the numbers are far different among Gen X and Boomers, roughly a third of them give socialism a thumbs up too.

But why is socialism popular, particularly among young adults?  While many have difficulty articulating their views, others have embraced the idea of “democratic socialism” as espoused by Sen. Bernie Sanders.

Young Americans Against Socialism CEO Morgan Zegers sees this up close on a daily basis.  After having an avowed communist as a good friend and college roommate, Zegers decided her generation needed to push back against the political tide.

In this conversation with Greg Corombos, Zegers details how she responds to the appeal of democratic socialism and why the facts of history are on her side.  She also stresses that conservatives need to befriend and not mock those who really don’t know why they like socialism.

Are Adversity Scores the Answer?

by

Listen to “Are Adversity Scores the Answer?” on Spreaker.

The College Board announced it is calculating an “adversity score” for the SAT in order to boost the chances for students living in the midst of great hardship to get accepted into college.

The adversity score takes 15 different factors into account, including the crime rate and poverty level in a students neighborhood and high school.

“There are a number of amazing students who may have scored less (on the SAT) but have accomplished more,” David Coleman, chief executive of the College Board, said, said according to the Wall Street Journal. “We can’t sit on our hands and ignore the disparities of wealth reflected in the SAT.”

The College Board insists this change does not take race into account.  However, Horace Cooper of the Project 21 National Advisory Board isn’t buying it.

“There’s an attempt being made by the SAT testing centers to hide better the utilization of race as a technique for making it easier for some people to be admitted while making it harder for others,” said Cooper, who says students from stable families and communities end up suffering.

“The so-called adversity scale – if it were even race-neutral – appears to say that the parents who work together and stay together in a relationship and it benefits their children are going to now be disadvantaged,” said Cooper.

Cooper believes the extra score for growing up in difficult circumstances provides lousy parents with an incentive to stay that way.

“Children that grow up in households where moms and dads stay together do better financially.  They do better academically.  They do better in terms of criminal interaction and law enforcement than those who do not.  We don’t want to create a situation, where we start at the end and work our way back, and then we end up incentivizing people not to (be concerned about these things,” said Cooper.

Listen to the full podcast to hear Cooper address concerns that disadvantaged students suffer because a chaotic home life causes their studies to suffer through no fault of their own.  He also reveals how he believes the college admissions system ought to work.

Pelosi Backs Off Impeachment, NYC on the Brink, Celebrity College Cheats

by

Listen to “Pelosi Backs Off Impeachment, NYC on the Brink, Celebrity College Cheats” on Spreaker.

Jim Geraghty of National Review and Greg Corombos of Radio America are a bit surprised by House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and House Intelligence Committee Chairman Adam Schiff signaling they don’t plan to pursue impeachment of President Trump unless there’s a bipartisan consensus for it. They also look on sadly as New York City’s exorbitant taxes and hard left policies leave the city careening towards bankruptcy. And they crack a few pop-culture jokes but also weigh in on the serious issues as celebrities and elites around the country are charged with bribing colleges and universities to admit their kids under false pretenses.
