CBS vs. Free Speech, Illegal Border Crossings Plummet, The Right Dominates Political Messaging

by

Listen to “CBS vs. Free Speech, Illegal Border Crossings Plummet, The Right Is Winning the Messaging Wars” on Spreaker.

Hillsdale College Radio General Manager and Radio Free Hillsdale Hour Host Scot Bertram fills in for Jim. Join Scot and Greg for the 3 Martini Lunch as they discuss CBS News’ attacks on free speech, the significant decline in illegal border crossings, and how the right is outpacing the left on political messaging. They also offer their quick thoughts on the 50th anniversary of Saturday Night Live.
They start with a deep dive into multiple efforts by CBS News to undermine free speech. Scot and Greg explore the controversial comments made by Face the Nation host Margaret Brennan, who suggested that too much free speech contributed to the rise of the Nazis and the Holocaust. They also take aim at 60 Minutes‘ favorable coverage of German laws prosecuting individuals for allegedly posting offensive or false information online. They explain why CBS is taking this dangerous position and how it distorts the concept of free speech.
Next, the hosts celebrate the dramatic drop in illegal border crossings. They highlight a report showing just 229 illegal crossings on Sunday, a stark contrast to the peak numbers during the Biden administration. Greg attributes the sharp decline to policies enacted by the Trump administration that ended the incentives for illegal immigration, while Scot points out that President Biden could have implemented similar measures to achieve these results but refused.
Then they marvel at a new Politico report in which Democrats acknowledge that Republicans are “running circles” around them in terms of political messaging, which has almost never been the case. Scot explains why this is a significant development for the left, and how it explains their efforts, along with the media, to suppress free speech.
Finally, Scot shares his thoughts on Sunday’s 50th anniversary special for Saturday Night Live and which moments stood out in the program.

Trump Warns Hamas, Ft. Bragg Returns with A Twist, FBI Leaks and ICE Raids

by

Listen to “Trump Warns Hamas, Ft. Bragg Returns with A Twist, FBI Leaks and ICE Raids” on Spreaker.

Join Jim and Greg for the 3 Martini Lunch podcast, where they break down President Trump’s ultimatum to Hamas, the return of Fort Bragg’s name in a clever way, and alarming reports of FBI figures allegedly tipping off illegal immigrants about ICE raids.

First, President Trump is issuing a stern warning to Hamas, saying that hell will be unleashed if all hostages are not released by Saturday. His ultimatum comes as Hamas pauses its release of hostages, claiming Israel has violated the terms of the ceasefire. Jim believes Trump’s anger over the condition of released hostages is evident, and they both think the vague nature of Trump’s threat is a smart way to put pressure on the terrorists.

Next, Jim and Greg applaud Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth’s decision to rename Fort Liberty in North Carolina back to Fort Bragg. The name had been familiar to many, and this change not only ends the confusion but also shifts the honor to a different individual named Bragg—a U.S. Army PFC who heroically fought at the Battle of the Bulge, rather than the Confederate general.

Finally, they react to disturbing allegations that some FBI figures and other government sources are tipping off illegal immigrants about pending ICE raids aimed at removing criminals and others who are in the U.S. illegally. Jim says anyone who has a problem with the policy needs to resign or ask for a transfer. And anyone who deliberately undermines it should face stiff penalties.

Trump’s Border Crackdown, Fauci’s Puzzling Pardon, Trump’s TikTok Proposal

by

Listen to “Trump’s Border Crackdown, Fauci’s Puzzling Pardon, Trump’s TikTok Proposal” on Spreaker.

Join Jim and Greg for 3 Martini Lunch as they dive into Trump’s tough border measures, the curious dates of Anthony Fauci’s pardon, and Trump’s freelancing on TikTok policy.

First, they cheer a report from Border Czar Tom Homan that fewer than 800 people illegally crossed our southwestern border on Trump’s first day, the Coast Guard stepping up against sea-based migration, and once-defiant Democrats now supporting ICE deportations of criminal illegals.

Next, they react to The Spectator’s reporting on Fauci’s pardon, which protects him from prosecution dating back to the start of 2014. Why? The answer seems to be connected to Fauci’s defiance of an Obama administration order against further gain of function research.

Finally, they discuss Trump’s public push for a TikTok sale, including his suggestion that the “United States of America” should control 50 percent of it. Does he want the government to have significant control over the app or is this merely a negotiating tactic? Either way, Jim says TikTok remains a national security threat and Trump needs to enforce the ban until a sale is actually imminent.

Bragg Backs off Trump Sentencing, The Courts & Deportations, GOP Senators AWOL on Key Votes

by

Listen to “Bragg Backs off Trump Sentencing, The Courts & Deportations, GOP Senators AWOL on Key Votes” on Spreaker.

Former Chief Assistant U.S. Attorney and National Review Contributing Editor Andy McCarthy steps in for Jim Geraghty on today’s 3 Martini Lunch. Andy and Greg dive into Manhattan DA Alvin Bragg’s request to delay sentencing Donald Trump for four years, whether the courts will  side with Trump on deportations, and the damaging impact of Republican senators missing votes on Biden judicial nominees.

They begin by discussing Manhattan DA Alvin Bragg asking for a four-year delay in sentencing Donald Trump until after Trump leaves the White House in 2029. Andy explains Trump is already appealing the verdict over immunity arguments and why both Trump and Bragg have good reasons to want the extended pause.

Next, they examine whether federal courts will support Trump’s mass deportation plans. Andy explores the broad authority of the federal government over immigration and the limitations of what state and local officials can do about it. But after the federal courts upheld Biden’s authority in the midst of his utter utter failure border security, will Trump get the same reacton when he tries to execute a very different set of policies?

Finally, Andy and Greg share their frustration over several Republican senators missing key votes, enabling controversial Biden judicial nominees to secure lifetime appointments. While senators like JD Vance and Marco Rubio were tied up with responsibilities for the incoming administration, their absences allowed far-left nominees to reshape the judiciary for decades.

Trump’s Strong Cabinet Picks, Sen. Casey Won’t Accept Reality, Rep. Moulton’s Trans-Gression

by

Listen to “Trump’s Strong Cabinet Picks, Sen. Casey Won’t Accept Reality, Rep. Moulton’s Trans-Gression” on Spreaker.

Join Jim and Greg as they discuss President-Elect Trump’s excellent early cabinet picks, Pennsylvania Sen. Bob Casey refusing to admit he lost, and a congressional Democrat excoriated by his own side for suggesting boys shouldn’t be playing in girls’ sports.

First, they share their enthusiasm for almost all of Trump’s initial picks, highlighting Chief of Staff Susie Wiles and National Security Adviser Michael Waltz as strong choices. Other notable names like Tom Homan, Elise Stefanik, Lee Zeldin, and Marco Rubio also reassure conservatives, though they raise concerns about Gov. Kristi Noem’s selection for Homeland Security.

Next, Jim and Greg scrutinize Sen. Bob Casey, Jr.’s refusal to admit defeat to Republican challenger Dave McCormick, who leads by 35,000 votes. Casey’s stubbornness  has even delayed McCormick’s freshman orientation. Will Casey or the Democrats pay a price for refusing to accept election results?

Finally, they react to progressives attacking Massachusetts Rep. Seth Moulton for saying his fellow Democrats aren’t listening to voters on issues like transgender athletes. Moulton also said he didn’t want his daughters getting run over by male athletes during competition. Will the left accept this reality check or just continue to demonize anyone who questions the woke agenda?
