Kirby Disrespects Veterans, Blaming the GOP for California’s Woes, No Single-Family Homes?

September 12, 2024 by GregC

Listen to “Kirby Disrespects Veterans, Blaming the GOP for California’s Woes, No Single-Family Homes?” on Spreaker.

Join Jim and Greg for a quick and fun discussion of getting spam emails from the DNC. Then they tackle National Security Council spokesman John Kirby disrespecting veterans critical of Biden, an LA Times columnist blaming Republicans for California’s litany of problems, and politicians in Maryland considering an end to single-family homes.

After some quick jokes about the odd, unsolicited DNC emails that Greg keeps getting, they dig into Admiral Kirby hitting “reply all” on a request for a statement from veterans mad about Biden’s disastrous withdrawal from Afghanistan and announcing their concerns weren’t even worth a response. “Obviously no use in responding. A ‘handful’ of vets indeed and all of one stripe,” is what Kirby said. Jim says Kirby needs to remember that he works for the people and not the Democratic Party.

Next, they roll their eyes at an opinion column in the Los Angeles Times that admits California is a mess. And even though no Republican has held statewide office since early 2011, columnist Steve Lopez says it’s still the GOP’s fault because of things Republicans did more than 50 years ago and that the Democrats’ many failures under one-party control in recent years are also the Republicans’ fault. Really! Jim has little patience for this revisionism and says Democrats have been able to do whatever they want in California. And what they want leads to disaster.

Finally, they turn their attention to the DC suburbs in Maryland. For years, people on the right have been branded as conspiracy theorists for saying the left wants to put an end to single-family homes and crowd more people into those spaces in order to collect more in property taxes. In Montgomery County, Maryland, the county council is now…surprise…considering legislation to put an end to single-family homes – under the false pretense of creating more affordable housing.

White House Press Office Tensions, Red China & the Red Sea, ISIS vs. Iran

January 5, 2024 by GregC

Listen to “White House Press Office Tensions, Red China & the Red Sea, ISIS vs. Iran” on Spreaker.

We’ve made it to the first Friday of 2024! And Jim and Greg are ready to serve up three martinis – right after Greg shares a fantastic ‘Die Hard’ story.

They start the martinis on the lighter side by reacting to an Axios story outlining tensions in the White House press office as Karine Jean-Pierre and John Kirby split duties in the press room and neither one is particularly is happy about it.

Then they did into Jim’s reporting on the Houthi militia causing so much havoc in the Red Sea that several major shipping companies are refusing to risk attacks and taking the long way to the west around the southern cape of Africa. This will add to the prices we pay for the goods on board. But Jim also points out that Chinese ships are getting a free pass from the terrorists into the Red Sea.

Finally, they also note this week’s ISIS terrorist attacks against Iran at the memorial service for Gen. Soleimani. The blast killed 80 people and injured more than 280 others. Jim and Greg have similar reactions to the news but offer completing ideas to how the U.S. should approach hostilities between two detestable entities.

Youngkin Targets the Car Tax, Colorado Bars Trump from the Ballot, Kirby’s Afghanistan Revisionism

December 20, 2023 by GregC

Listen to “Youngkin Targets the Car Tax, Colorado Bars Trump from Ballot, Kirby’s Afghan Revisionism” on Spreaker.

Join Jim and Greg as they cheer Virginia Gov. Glenn Youngkin for making a strong case to permanently kill the horrible car tax that resident have to pay every year simply for owning a car. But will the idea go anywhere with Democrats controlling the legislature?

Then they dig into the Colorado Supreme Court’s decision to ban Donald Trump from the 2024 Republican primary ballot because he allegedly led an insurrection, and that disqualifies him under the 14th Amendment to the Constitution. But with no criminal charges of insurrection and a political acquittal, does the court have any grounds to do this? The U.S. Supreme Court will decide.

They also blast White House National Security Council Spokesman John Kirby for trying to convince us that we really didn’t leave tens of billions worth of military equipment behind in Afghanistan.

Finally, be sure to catch Jim and Greg handing out their prestigious 3 Martini Lunch Awards starting Thursday and running through the end of the year. They’ll reveal their choices for the most overrated and underrated political figures, rising political stars and figures fading into oblivion, beast and worst political ideas, best and worst political theater, and overreported and underreported stories of the year. At the end of next week, they will announce their choices for Person of the Year, Turncoat of the Year, and make predictions for 2024. Join us tomorrow for all of the fun!

Grassley Releases Bribery Allegation, Third Party Doesn’t Hurt Biden, Kirby vs. Reality

July 21, 2023 by GregC

Listen to “Grassley Releases Bribery Allegation, Third Party Doesn’t Hurt Biden, Kirby vs. Reality” on Spreaker.

Join Jim and Greg as they credit Iowa Sen. Chuck Grassley for releasing the $10 million bribery allegation against Joe and Hunter Biden that the FBI and Justice Department have refused to investigate for years. They also respond to new polling showing that there could be considerable support for a third party presidential candidate in 2024 but that President Biden would still hold a comfortable lead. Finally, they roll their eyes as White House National Security Council Spokesman John Kirby says he saw absolutely nothing concerning or confusing in Biden’s meeting with the Israeli president this week.

DeSantis Calls Out GOP Leaders, Kirby’s Afghanistan Lies, Tennessee Dems Expelled

April 7, 2023 by GregC

Listen to “DeSantis Calls Out GOP Leaders, Kirby’s Afghanistan Lies, Tennessee Dems vs. the Truth” on Spreaker.

Ricochet Editor-in-Chief Jon Gabriel is in for Jim on this Good Friday edition of the podcast. Join Jon and Greg as they cheer Ron DeSantis for calling out GOP leaders over many years for making conservative promises to voters and then failing to follow through on them. They also unload on White House spokesman John Kirby for trying to blame President Trump for the Afghanistan withdrawal debacle and for claiming he didn’t see any chaos during the withdrawal operation. Finally, they react to the expulsion of two Democrats in the Tennessee legislature for leading an extended disruption on the floor of the chamber earlier this week and they address the dubious explanations from Democrats about what really happened.

Dems Clearing for Biden? Weak Western Leadership, RNC Leadership Fight

November 29, 2022 by GregC

Listen to “Dems Clearing for Biden? Weak Western Leadership, RNC Leadership Fight” on Spreaker.

Join Jim and Greg as they dissect the reversal of the Biden retirement narrative and now Democrats seem to be unifying behind an unpopular president in decline. It might be the GOP’s best chance to win, but it’s no guarantee. They also shake their heads as the Biden administration offers no response to the protests in China and Canada’s Justin Trudeau finds protests designed to change public policy to be “worrisome.” And they wade into the battle to lead the Republican National Committee, assessing the candidacies of current chairman Ronna McDaniel, New York Rep. Lee Zeldin, and My Pillow CEO Mike Lindell. And they bid farewell to one of the great actors from “Die Hard.”
