Lousy Jobs Report, Early Vote Warnings for GOP, Controversial Campaign Comments

November 1, 2024 by GregC

Listen to “Lousy Jobs Report, Early Vote Warnings for GOP, Controversial Campaign Comments” on Spreaker.

Join Jim and Greg as they dive into the final weekend of the campaign with two bad martinis and a three-pronged crazy one. Today, they tackle a weak October jobs report, concerning early voting trends for the GOP, and a wave of controversial statements shaping the end of the campaign.

First, they are stunned by the October jobs report, which shows just 12,000 new jobs and a downward revision of 112,000 jobs for August and September. So the U.S. has lost 100,000 jobs in the past three months and the economy is still – by far – the top issue for voters. Jim also speculates on whether the looming election might be impacting these numbers.

Next, after highlighting the very strong early vote numbers for the GOP in Nevada earlier this week, trends in Georgia, Pennsylvania, and Michigan now appear to be favoring Democrats. Jim takes a closer look at these patterns and considers whether party registration accurately reflects voter decisions—especially in critical Rust Belt states.

Finally, they take three recent political comments and discuss how the media and opposing politicians are reacting to them. They dissect comments from Jimmy Kimmel about when Trump supporters should vote, Donald Trump’s statement about Liz Cheney, and Mark Cuban alleging that Trump doesn’t ever want to be around strong, intelligent women.

Trump’s VP Short List? Economic Warning Signs, Biden Adds DACA to Obamacare

May 3, 2024 by GregC

Listen to “Trump’s VP Short List? Economic Warning Signs, Biden Adds DACA to Obamacare” on Spreaker.

Jim and Greg finish a very long and busy week by mulling over the four names reported to be on Trump’s VP short list, some concerning signs in the April jobs report, and President Biden taking a page from Barack Obama’s guide to political pandering.

First, they consider the pros and cons of the four figures reported to be under serious consideration to be Donald Trump’s running mate. What benefits do North Dakota Gov. Doug Burgum, Florida Sen. Marco Rubio, South Carolina Sen. Tim Scott, and Ohio Sen. J.D. Vance potentially bring to the ticket and what are their liabilities?

Next, they size up the April jobs report – which showed positive job growth but not as much as expected. Plus, they highlight the massive number of Americans who have stopped looking for work and dropped out of the labor force.

Finally, they discuss President Biden’s election year ploy to add DACA recipients (people who were brought to the U.S. illegally by their parents) to Obamacare. And guess who gets to pay for those health care bills?

Israel’s Singular Focus, The Deceptive Jobs Report, Blumenthal Pushing Sotomayor to Retire

April 8, 2024 by GregC

Listen to “Israeli Unity vs. Hamas, The Deceptive Jobs Report, Blumenthal Pushing Sotomayor to Retire” on Spreaker.

Join Jim and Greg for a few quick thoughts on the solar eclipse and then martinis covering the Middle East, the hidden truth inside the March jobs report, and a senator trying to push a Supreme Court justice into retirement.

First, they applaud former Israeli Prime Minister Naftali Bennett for fending off the biased questions of CNN’s Fareed Zakaria and repeatedly echoing his political rival, current Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, in saying that Israel must destroy Hamas once and for all.

Next, they shudder at the truth behind the supposedly good March jobs report – that virtually all of the jobs created last month were part-time positions. They discuss what this means and why it explains Americans’ disgust with Biden over the economy despite good unemployment numbers.

Finally, they get a kick out of Connecticut Sen. Richard Blumenthal publicly pressuring Supreme Court Justice Sonia Sotomayor to retire – with the not-so-subtle suggestion that she could die soon and hand a Republican president the opportunity to replace her.

Strong January Jobs Report, Racism vs. Reality Over Walgreen’s, RNC’s Financial Disaster

February 2, 2024 by GregC

Listen to “Strong January Jobs Report, Racism vs. Reality Over Walgreen’s, RNC’s Financial Disaster” on Spreaker.

Join Jim and Greg for good, bad, and crazy martinis to wrap up the work week!

First, they’re impressed as the U.S. economy added 353,000 jobs in January – nearly double the amount expected. They also discuss the potential political impact of reports like this on the 2024 campaign and some additional caveats to the strong numbers.

Then they sigh as squad member and Massachusetts Rep. Ayanna Pressley accuses Walgreen’s of racial discrimination for closing a second store in her district instead of exploring what other reasons the company would have for shutting down that location.

Finally, they fume after a shocking report from Red State shows how the Republican National Committee recklessly spent of money on flowers, limousines, consultants, and office supplies, while the Democratic National Committee focused expenditures on Get Out the Vote campaigns, maintaining voter files, and helping other Dem organizations. And the news only gets worse from there.

Big January Jobs Jump, China’s Spy Balloon, Stay Home to Save the Climate?

February 3, 2023 by GregC

Listen to “Big January Jobs Jump, China’s Spy Balloon, Stay Home for the Climate?” on Spreaker.

Join Jim and Greg as they welcome a January jobs report showing more than half a million new jobs, although they’re more dubious as to whether Biden deserves the credit. They’re also concerned about the spotting of a Chinese surveillance balloon over Montana near a key military site and discuss Biden’s decision thus far not to shoot it down. Finally, they fume over the Biden administration’s new climate agenda, which seeks to emulate the pandemic-era emissions levels by encouraging working Americans – and even students – to engage from home.

Decent Jobs Report, Biden’s Border Deception, The ‘Transage’ Movement

January 6, 2023 by GregC

Listen to “Decent Jobs Report, Biden’s Border Deception, The ‘Transage’ Movement” on Spreaker.

Join Jim and Greg as they are pleased to see the December jobs report exceed expectations while many economists brace for a recession this year. They also unload on President Biden for his deceptive and disingenuous immigration speech downplaying the crisis, exaggerating his response, and blaming Republicans for the problems. Finally, they push back on the latest assault on reality – the “transage” movement – which suggests your age is not your real age but the age you identify as.

GOP Chance in Oregon, Red State Jobs Boom, Stelter Out at CNN

August 19, 2022 by GregC

Listen to “GOP Chance in Oregon, Red State Jobs Boom, Stelter Out at CNN” on Spreaker.

It’s all good martinis today! Join Jim and Greg as they welcome news that the Oregon governor’s race is a toss-up thanks to a former Democrat running as an independent. They also celebrate news that the strong hiring numbers we’ve seen in the wake of the pandemic are overwhelmingly powered by Republican-led states. And they discuss why it was long past time for Brian Stelter to be shown the door at CNN after constantly turning a program designed to objectively evaluate the media into a cheerleading session for the left.

Shinzo Abe Assassinated, June Jobs Jump, NY’s New Gun Hurdles

July 8, 2022 by GregC

Listen to “Shinzo Abe Assassinated, June Jobs Jump, NY’s New Gun Hurdles” on Spreaker.

Join Jim and Greg as they recoil at the horrific assassination of former Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe and discuss why he was such a valuable U.S. ally. They also welcome better than expected job growth in June. And they wonder if New York Democrats learned anything from the Supreme Court decision as they pass new hurdles for residents to get concealed carry permits – including submitting their social media accounts for an evaluation of their character and conduct.

February 4, 2022 by GregC

Listen to “Jobs Report Surprise, The ‘COVID Relief’ Canard, Pelosi’s Pathetic Olympic Advice” on Spreaker.

Join Jim and Greg as they welcome a much better than expected jobs report when dismal numbers were expected. They also unload on President Biden and the Democrats for running out of COVID relief funds – because their $1.9 trillion legislation contained very little COVID relief. And they scrutinize House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s comments that America’s Olympic athletes should just compete and not speak out against the repressive Chinese government.
