Dems Still in Disarray, Will Two More Weeks Land a Nuke Deal? The Damage AI Is Already Doing

by

Listen to “Dems Still in Disarray, Will Two More Weeks Land a Nuke Deal? The Damage AI Is Already Doing” on Spreaker.

Join Jim and Greg for the Friday 3 Martini Lunch as they dig into reports of immense frustration and finger pointing among Democrats more than seven months after the election, whether there’s any likelihood of a meaningful nuclear deal with Iran over the next two weeks, and the very disturbing impact artificial intelligence is already having on our brains and relationships.

First, they pop the popcorn as Democrats are openly venting about Democratic National Committee Chairman Ken Martin’s weak leadership and how the party still resembles a circular firing squad long after President Trump’s win in November. Polling also shows intense disapproval among Democrats for party leaders overall.

Next, as President Trump gives Iran two weeks to make a concrete deal to give up its nuclear program, Jim examines whether there’s any real expectation that Iran would ever agree to something the U.S. would find acceptable. They also discuss Iran’s use of more sophisticated missiles in attacking Israel and how the Iron Dome is having a tougher time taking them out.

Finally, they shudder at the negative impact artificial intelligence is having on our lives. An MIT study of ChatGPT on 54 student brains over four months shows a significant drop in neural connectivity or brain processing power. They also highlight how people are developing intense personal “relationships” with their AI at the cost of developing bonds with actual human beings.

Mossad’s Masterful Bunker Trap, Trump Still Pursuing Nuke Deal, Dems Amnesty Delusion

by

Listen to “Mossad’s Masterful Bunker Trap, Trump Still Pursuing Nuke Deal, Dems’ Amnesty Delusion” on Spreaker.

It’s National Martini Day! So join Jim and Greg for Thursday’s 3 Martini Lunch as they look at Israel’s ingenious plan to kill many top Iranian military figures as the airstrikes began last week. They also consider President Trump’s final push for a nuclear deal with Iran, and Florida Rep. Maxwell Frost openly admitting he wants amnesty and citizenship for every illegal immigrant.

First, they break down how Israel’s Mossad cleverly exploited Iranian communications to lure top commanders into the same bunker and then made that the first target of the bombing campaign. Jim and Greg can’t help but limagine the generals questioning who called the meeting moments before the explosion. Jim says this also confirms his long-standing loathing of in-person meetings.

Next, they react to President Trump and U.S. envoy Steve Witkoff trying the diplomatic route one more time to get Iran to abandon it’s nuclear weapons ambitions. Jim has been less than impressed with Witkoff’s performance in the Middle East and Russia so far. He also says it’s clear Trump is doing everything he can to avoid a full-scale war with Iran.

Finally, they react to Rep. Frost’s openly radical proposal to solve illegal immigration by simply granting amnesty and citizenship to everyone here unlawfully. Jim and Greg dissect the political and national security consequences, with Jim arguing this reflects Democrats’ ongoing delusion that Americans support their policies but just need them explained better.

Finally, they cringe at the absurd but honest call from Rep. Frost to end the problem of illegal immigrants by quickly legalizing them and making them citizens. Amnesty would not only reward the existing lawbreakers but attract many more people to come here illegally. Jim says this is also evidence that many Dems convinced themselves of the delusion that Americans really do love their policies and they only need to communicate them better.

Trump Keeps Iran Guessing, Supremes Uphold Tennessee Trans Law, More Dem Deportation Drama

by

Listen to “Trump Keeps Iran Guessing, Supremes Uphold Tennessee Trans Law, More Dem Deportation Drama” on Spreaker.

Join Jim and Greg for the Wednesday edition of the 3 Martini Lunch as they react to President Trump’s cryptic yet playful comments on Iran, break down a major Supreme Court ruling on transgender procedures for minors, and shake their heads at yet another Democrat staging a protest for attention over ICE operations

First, they get a kick out of President Trump having fun with a reporter’s question about what might come next with Iran and adding, “I may do it. I may may not do it.” Jim also wonders whether Trump’s tough talk is just a smokescreen while Israel finishes the job at the nuclear sites.

Next, they applaud the Supreme Court’s decision to uphold Tennessee’s law banning transgender surgeries, puberty blockers, and related treatments for minors. Jim says there needs to be a distinction between minors and adults on this issue. They also point out that most kids dealing with gender dysphoria end up embracing the way they were made while the surgeries and drugs are irreversible.

Finally, they mock the latest political stunt involving a Democrat getting detained for interfering with ICE operations—this time New York City Comptroller Brad Lander, who also happens to be a mayoral candidate with a primary next week. Jim fears this tactic may become a Democratic litmus test in 2026.  And they both have fun imagining a more organized way for Dems to carry out their publicity stunts.

Musk Blasts ‘Beautiful Bill,’ Jeffries Vows to Dox ICE Agents, Dems Still Devalue Female Athletes

by

Listen to “Musk Blasts ‘Beautiful Bill,’ Jeffries Vows to Dox ICE Agents, Dems Still Devalue Female Athletes” on Spreaker.

Inez Stepman of the Independent Women’s Forum fills in for Jim today on 3 Martini Lunch Join Inez and Greg as they delve into Elon Musk’s anger over the Big Beautiful Bill, Hakeem Jeffries’ plans to dox ICE members, and the recent surplus of news about trans athletes stealing achivements from female athletes..

First, Inez and Greg discuss Musk’s frustration over what he considers “a disgusting abomination”  – the GOP’s Big Beautiful Bill because it is not nearly serious enough about cutting spending. Inez agrees that we need much more fiscal restraint but she supports the bill because of its provisions on border safety, rooting out indoctrination in schools, and more.

Next, they are horrified at House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries,’ promise to dox ICE members for alleged overreach. Anyone responsible for deporting potential members of drug cartels have every right to protect their identity in the process. Inez slams the move as reckless and unconstitutional.

Finally, they spotlight the increasing number of cases where male athletes identifying as girls are awarded titles, and scholarships, and other opportunities over the girls. Inez argues for a firm definition of sex in Title IX to avoid future Democratic majorities from enacting egregious reinterpretations of the law.

Middle Class Shifting to GOP, Homan’s Chilling Terror Warning, Dems Positioning for 2028

by

Listen to “Middle Class Shifting to GOP, Homan’s Chilling Terror Warning, Dems Positioning for 2028” on Spreaker.

Join Jim and Greg for the Tuesday edition of the 3 Martini Lunch as they dissect polls showing voters still trust Republicans more on the economy, shudder at Border Czar Tom Homan’s concern over major terrorist attacks in the U.S. due to Biden’s open borders, and size up the Democrats already dipping their toes into the water for 2028.

First, they highlight CNN’s Harry Enten reporting that Americans increasingly see Republicans as the party of the middle class and more trustworthy on economic issues. Enten appears frustrated by the trend, but Jim and Greg explain that the shift is no surprise—Democrats keep ignoring inflation, cost-of-living spikes, and pushing radical economic policies voters don’t want.

Next, they react to dire warnings from Border Czar Tom Homan, who says the Biden administration’s border failures have allowed two million “gotaways” into the country—migrants who deliberately avoided processing at the border. Homan warns it’s only a matter of time before some of these individuals commit a major terrorist attack inside the U.S.

Finally, they joke about the preemptive presidential campaigns begun by Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz and Maryland Gov. Wes Moore. In recent appearances in South Carolina, Walz called Trump a “wannabe dictator” and urged supporters to bully Trump. Meanwhile, Gov. Moore inists he’s not running for president in 2028 but keeps doing events like this. His record as governor is also not that great. And they also discuss the indecision of Kamala Harris over running for governor of California next year.

Dems’ Gen Z Panic, Awful Options for Jewish Voters in NYC, Dems Won’t Apologize to Hur

by

Listen to “Dems’ Gen Z Panic, Awful Options for Jewish Voters in NYC, Dems Won’t Apologize to Hur” on Spreaker.

Join Jim and Greg for the 3 Martini Lunch as they highlight the Democrats’ clumsy attempts to woo Gen Z men, the horrible records of leading NYC mayoral candidates towards the city’s Jewish population, and Senate Democrats refusing to apologize for demonizing Special Counsel Robert Hur.

First, Jim and Greg have a good laugh over reports that Democrats are spending millions trying to win back young men—especially after Gen Z males swung Republican more than expected in 2024. But instead of rethinking policies, Democrats are focusing on tone and messaging. Jim floats the idea of launching his own Gen Z initiative, mainly to fleece naive Democrat donors.

Next, they slam the dismal choices facing New York City in the mayoral race, as Democrats with lousy records toward Jewish residents lead the pack. Jim and Greg discuss former GOP New York Lt. Gov. Betsy McCaughey’s warnings about Andrew Cuomo’s empty promises and Zohran Mamdani’s poorly concealed hostility, leaving Jewish New Yorkers with little reason for optimism.

Finally, they shake their heads in amusement as Democrat Senators Tina Smith and Tim Kaine say they will not apologize to former Special Counsel Robert Hur for publicly trashing him last year after Hur referred to President Biden as an elderly man with a poor memory. Even with the audio clearly vindicating Hur, the Democrats stand by their vicious statements.

NYT’s Unobscured Trump Attack, Trump Wants to Reopen Alcatraz, The Obamas’ Endless Whining

by

Listen to “NYT’s Unobscured Trump Attack, Trump Wants to Reopen Alcatraz, The Obamas’ Endless Whining” on Spreaker.

Join Jim and Greg for Tuesday’s 3 Martini Lunch as they dig into the New York Times’ latest attempt to undermine President Trump and congressional Republicans, Trump’s push to reopen Alcatraz as a federal prison, and Michelle Obama’s newest, tiresome complaints about life in the White House.

First, they tear into the New York Times for framing the Congressional Review Act (CRA) as an “obscure” tool possibly being misused by Republicans to undo Biden-era regulations. The article warns readers that opponents can’t filibuster CRA rollbacks—something the left suddenly finds troubling now that Republicans control Congress. Jim dismantles the Times’ arguments, defends Trump’s use of the CRA, and calls out the media’s hypocritical coverage of these tactics.

Next, they react to President Trump’s call to reopen Alcatraz as a prison for the nation’s most dangerous criminals. He also hints at sending criminal illegals there, blaming judges “that are afraid to do their job and allow us to remove criminals.” Jim and Greg aren’t sure that specifically rebuilding Alcatraz is the answer, but they do like the like of sending our worst criminals top laces that will be remote and will become synonymous with a thoroughly miserable experience for the inmates. And some of their ideas for how to do this are out of this world.

Finally, they roll their eyes at Michelle Obama’s latest White House grievances—this time about paying for their own private meals and also travel for their children when the president wasn’t with them. Jim and Greg are tired of how the Obamas continue to portray themselves as victims while enjoying elite status—but are enjoy seeing how their political influence continues to fade within the Democratic Party.

Trump’s Education Overhaul, American Freed from Afghanistan, Will Dems Lurch Further Left?

by

Listen to “Trump’s Education Overhaul, American Freed from Afghanistan, Will Dems Lurch Further Left?” on Spreaker.

Undisputed King of Stuff and Sink the Rising Sun author Jon Gabriel fills in for Jim today. Join Jon and Greg as they analyze President Trump’s executive order to dismantle the Department of Education, the release of an American prisoner from the Taliban, and a plurality of Democrats being fed up with their own party’s leaders in Congress.

First, they commend President Trump’s decision to phase out the Department of Education, citing the decline in student performance since its creation in 1979. Jon and Greg explain how this move won’t end public education but will likely improve it by shifting control to state and local officials. They also push back against Democrats like Sen. Elizabeth Warren, who frame this as an existential crisis for schools.

Next, they celebrate the release of American George Glezmann, who had been held hostage by the Taliban. While relieved that no Taliban members were freed in exchange, Jon and Greg criticize the Biden administration for failing to classify Glezmann as “improperly detained” for more than a year. They also slam the media for downplaying the plight of Americans imprisoned or killed by oppressive regimes and terrorist groups.

Finally, they break down polling showing more Democrats view their congressional leadership negatively than positively. They also discuss the possibility of a tea party-style movement pushing the party further left and marvel at how Democrats continue to misread voter sentiment.

Astronauts Safely Return, Will Schumer Survive as Leader? Walz Won’t Go Away

by

Listen to “Astronauts Safely Return, Will Schumer Survive as Leader? Walz Won’t Go Away” on Spreaker.

Join Jim and Greg for 3 Martini Lunch as they break down SpaceX’s dramatic rescue of American astronauts, Chuck Schumer’s struggle to survive mounting pressure from the left, and Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz’s relentless bid for political relevance.

First, they celebrate the safe return of astronauts Butch Wilmore and Suni Williams after their planned eight-day mission stretched into more than nine months aboard the International Space Station. They credit SpaceX and Elon Musk for achieving what Boeing and the federal government could not—while dismissing weak arguments that the astronauts weren’t truly stranded.

Next, they grab the popcorn as Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer faces an uproar from progressives after helping Republicans break the filibuster to keep the government open. With at least one House Democrat calling for new leadership and many others still fuming, Schumer attempted damage control on The View—only to alienate business owners by mocking their complaints over high taxes.

Finally, they groan as Gov. Tim Walz keeps forcing himself into the political spotlight with speeches in multiple states. While he has every right to speak out, it’s now widely accepted that his addition to Kamala Harris’s ticket last year didn’t help, and there’s little indication he has any lasting influence in the party.

Trump Targets the Houthis, Sinema Showcases Dem Hypocrisy, Can Trump Reverse Biden Pardons?

by

Listen to “Trump Targets the Houthis, Sinema Showcases Dem Hypocrisy, Can Trump Reverse Biden Pardons?” on Spreaker.

Join Jim and Greg for 3 Martini Lunch as they analyze President Trump’s decision to strike Iran-backed Houthi terrorists in Yemen, former Sen. Kyrsten Sinema exposing the Democrats’ hypocrisy on the filibuster, and Trump’s claim that President Biden’s pardons are invalid. They also pay tribute to two influential figures on the right who recently passed away.

First, they support Trump’s move to target Houthi militants for their ongoing attacks on U.S. and allied ships in the Red Sea. Jim explains why the strikes are justified and responds to concerns about escalating conflict and whether Trump has congressional authorization.

Next, they enjoy watching former Arizona Sen. Kyrsten Sinema call out the Democrats’ blatant filibuster hypocrisy. Sinema became a pariah in her own party for refusing to kill the legislative filibuster. Now she’s gleefully highlighting the same Democrats for demanding that Senate Democrats filibuster the government spending bill last week.

Then, they consider Trump’s assertion that Biden’s pardons are invalid because they were signed with an autopen and possibly without Biden’s awareness. They cite past evidence of Biden’s confusion over executive orders but doubt Trump could legally overturn the pardons—a precedent he might later appreciate. They also offer some ingenious ideas for speeding up the resolution of all the legal challenges to Trump’s policies.

Finally, they pay tribute to two important figures on the right who died last week. First, they remember former Wyoming Sen. Alan Simpson. Then they reflect upon the life of longtime Reagan speechwriter Tony Dolan, who had a significant impact on Jim’s career.
