Consistent Kyrsten, Crazy Kirsten, Jenner for Governor?

April 7, 2021 by GregC

Listen to “Consistent Kyrsten, Crazy Kirsten, Jenner for Governor?” on Spreaker.

Join Jim and Greg as they applaud Arizona Democrat Kyrsten Sinema for thus far refusing to kill or even “reform” the Senate filibuster – despite immense pressure from the left. They also shake their heads as New York Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand tries to argue that paid leave, child care, and caregiving fall under infrastructure. And the California recall spectacle may already be underway as the first celebrity hints at running for governor.

Biden’s Border Wall? Infrastructure Bill Gets Big Boost, Biden’s MLB Walkback

April 6, 2021 by GregC

Listen to “Biden’s Border Wall? Infrastructure Bill Gets Big Boost, Biden’s MLB Walkback” on Spreaker.

Join Jim and Greg as they welcome the Biden administration’s grudging concession that there needs to be upgrades to our physical barriers along the U.S.-Mexico border. They also groan as the Senate parliamentarian, as expected, will allow the Democrats to pursue one more bill by a simple majority during this fiscal year. That means the $2 trillion “infrastructure” bill can become law without a single GOP vote in Congress. And they get a kick out of President Biden trying to pretend he wasn’t a major catalyst in getting the all-star game moved out of Atlanta.

Biden’s Bad Border Polls, The Infrastructure Trojan Horse, The Left’s War on Biological Sex

March 31, 2021 by GregC

Listen to “Biden’s Bad Border Polls, The Infrastructure Trojan Horse, The Left’s War on Biological Sex” on Spreaker.

Rob Long and Greg react to New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo doing exactly what Rob said he would do to distract from his many scandals. Then they’re glad to see President Biden’s poll numbers sinking on immigration policy. They also explain how Biden’s “infrastructure” bill appears to include a bunch of Green New Deal provisions and guts the freedom to work. And they call out the left’s refusal to acknowledge basic biological reality when it comes to determining a person’s sex.

Dems Finally See Debt, Cuomo’s Six Accusers, Biden’s Border Crisis

March 11, 2021 by GregC

Listen to “Dems Finally See Debt, Cuomo’s Six Accusers, Biden’s Border Crisis” on Spreaker.

Join Jim and Greg as they marvel at some Democrats conveniently worrying about our massive debt just one day after passing a bloated COVID relief bill totaling $1.9 trillion and eyeing an even more expensive bill in a couple of months. They also discuss the sixth allegation of sexual harassment against New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo and when state Democrats will move from muttering things about resignation to an actual impeachment effort. And they discuss the mess at the southern border thanks to Biden’s deportation moratorium and stated plans of a pathway to citizenship for illegal immigrants.

Norquist: Higher Gas Taxes Won’t Mean Better Roads

April 5, 2019 by GregC

Listen to “Norquist: Higher Gas Taxes Won’t Mean Better Roads” on Spreaker.

The Trump administration says higher gas taxes are on the table when figuring out how to pay for infrastructure projects and Republicans in one battleground state just hiked gas taxes there, arguing that it had to be done.  But one of the nation’s fiercest opponents of tax increases says Americans should not fall for the argument that higher taxes means better roads and bridges.

“Year after year, politicians say they are going to prioritize fixing the roads, widening roads, widening bridges and so on and then they don’t.  And so people believe that maybe if they raise taxes they would do that.

“In point of fact, when you do raise the gas tax in various states, the politicians siphon off much of that money into things that have nothing to do with roads,” said Americans for Tax Reform President Grover Norquist.

Norquist says a fraction of the extra revenue – or sometimes none – actually gets spent on roads and that leads to calls for even more taxes.

“Politicians love to use their failure to focus on roads as an excuse for you to give them more money.  It’s a bad idea.  Nobody should fall for it,” said Norquist.

According to Norquist, just the fact that politicians want to raise your taxes while portraying themselves as passionate about upgrading infrastructure, puts the lie to their argument.

“Keep in mind, a politician who says to you, ‘I care so much about…roads, prisons, education that I’m willing to raise taxes to support it.’  That politician did not tell you how much he likes roads, prisons, education.  He just told you that everything that’s presently in the multi-billion dollar budget of our state is more important than roads because I wouldn’t stop doing any of that and put it into roads,” said Norquist.

Listen to the full podcast to hear Norquist explain how increasing gas taxes raises your expenses far beyond the gas pump.

Trump’s Infrastructure Approach, Media Fawn Over North Korea, CNN & Corker

February 12, 2018 by GregC


Jim Geraghty of National Review and Greg Corombos of Radio America are leery in general that any infrastructure bill can avoid becoming a huge waste of money but they are glad to see President Trump asking states to play a major role in funding the plan.  They also unload on the mainstream media for writing glowing reviews of Kim Jong-Un’s sister and how she is supposedly executing a diplomatic masterpiece at the Olympics.  And they rip the press for falling for the supposedly charming North Korean cheer squad, when they’re really slaves of a regime that will punish them and their families if they make any mistakes.  And they roll their eyes at CNN for reporting that Sen. Bob Corker is thinking about reconsidering his retirement, even as Corker’s office says there is nothing to the story.
