2024 Martini Awards Part 3: Biggest Lie, Best Political Theater, Worst Political Theater

by

Listen to “2024 Martini Awards Part 3: Biggest Lie, Best Political Theater, Worst Political Theater” on Spreaker.

We hope you had a wonderful Christmas and enjoyed our conversation with Die Hard legend Robert Davi! Jim and Greg are back today for the third round of the Three Martini Lunch Awards. Today, they discuss the Biggest Lie, Best Political Theater, and Worst Political Theater of 2024.

They start with the biggest lies of the year. Jim kicks things off by citing a massive lie that has been obvious for years and finally exploded for all the world to see this year. Greg focuses on an obvious Trump campaign policy statement that the left and its media allies immediately twisted into a sinister promise of mayhem if Trump lost. It was nothing of the sort.

Then it’s time for the best political theater of 2024, with Jim choosing an indelible campaign moment in the midst of shock and horror. Jim explains why that moment had such a profound impact on many Americans. While Greg wholeheartedly agrees with Jim’s selection, he points out one of the worst examples of the left not handling Election Night very well.

Finally, they cringe remembering the worst political theater of 2024. Jim singles out a key moment from the Democratic National Convention that served as a final insult to the outgoing president. Meanwhile, Greg finds his worst political theater in in a pair of New York courtrooms..

Please join us on Friday as Jim and Greg hand out their awards for Best Political Idea, Worst Political Idea, and Boldest Tactic for 2024.

Trump Wins, Republicans Take the Senate, Media Meltdown

by

Listen to “Trump Wins, Republicans Take the Senate, Media Meltdown” on Spreaker.

Join Jim and Greg as they break down three major outcomes from Election Night 2024. Today, they discuss Donald Trump’s battleground state victories over Kamala Harris, the Republican takeover of the U.S. Senate, and the wildest reactions from leftist media voices.

First, they marvel at Donald Trump’s clear win over Harris, with the possibility of sweeping all seven swing states. Jim and Greg review how the vote count shifted from initial uncertainty to clear Trump momentum, leading to a victory call much earlier than many people anticipated.

Next, they cheer as Republicans pick up at least three U.S. Senate seats, taking control from Chuck Schumer and the Democrats. Greg and Jim analyze these pickups, discuss races that could still swing GOP, and review how Democrats fell short in their challenges to Republican incumbents.

Finally, they spotlight some of the most extreme media reactions to Trump’s win, from outrage over the Electoral College and GOP success in Florida to leftist commentators blaming white women for Trump’s victory.

Kamala Mangles MSNBC Interview, NYC Mayor Indicted, Biden Gaslights on Retirement

by

Listen to “Kamala’s Confusing MSNBC Interview, NYC Mayor Adams Indicted, Biden Gaslights on 2024 Decision” on Spreaker.

Join Jim and Greg as they assess Kamala’s weak performance on MSNBC, New York City Mayor Eric Adams getting indicted in a federal foreign bribery case, and President Biden trying to gaslight America and the world about why he’s not still running for president.
First, they get a kick out of Kamala Harris struggling mightily to answer very basic questions from MSNBC’s Stephanie Ruhle. Harris seemed to have no insights on tariffs or what she would do if Congress didn’t pass a corporate tax increase if she were elected. She also delivered another notorious word salad. Jim and Greg debate whether her poor performance is due to incompetence or an attempt to conceal her radical agenda.
Next, they react to New York City Mayor Eric Adams’ federal indictment for allegedly taking bribes from Turkish officials to expedite a questionable construction project. They discuss the implosion of Adams’ administration, whether his criticism of the migrant crisis played a role in the indictment, and the disgraced figure who may be eyeing a political comeback.
Finally, they debunk President Biden’s claim that his decision to step down in July was a selfless move for the good of the nation. Jim and Greg argue that Biden’s narrative, presented during his U.N. speech and appearance on The View, overlooks pressure from top Democrats pushing him out of the 2024 race.

Kamala Wants to Kill the Filibuster, Harris Keeps Hedging, Kamala Rewards Ruhle

by

Listen to “Kamala Wants to Kill the Filibuster, Harris Keeps Hedging, Kamala Rewards Ruhle” on Spreaker.

Join Jim and Greg as they serve up all bad and crazy martinis. Today, they discuss Kamala Harris wanting to kill the Senate filibuster to codify Roe v. Wade, her ongoing refusal to confirm whether she still holds the same positions on several controversial issues, and MSNBC’s Stephanie Ruhle landing an interview with Harris just days after publicly saying that Harris doesn’t need to answer tough questions because Donald Trump is such a threat to our nation.

First, they dive into the vice president’s call to suspend the Senate filibuster to codify Roe v. Wade into federal law. Senators Joe Manchin and Kyrsten Sinema  – the one-time Democrats who prevented their colleagues from killing the filibuster in the previous Congress – immediately denounced the idea. Jim and Greg explain why ending the filibuster would set a dangerous precedent, ultimately allowing Democrats to dismantle it for all legislative priorities.

They then shift to Harris’s refusal to confirm whether her views on controversial issues like the death penalty, citizenship for some illegal immigrants, and decriminalizing sex work have changed. Despite repeated questions, the Vice President also avoids discussing her stance on a California ballot initiative that would increase penalties for minor theft and drug crimes. Jim and Greg not only blast her for trying to obscure her radical positions, but somehow wind up venting about Democrats – and a few Republicans – who failed to keep their word back in the ’80s and ’90s.

Finally, they roll their eyes as MSNBC’s Stephanie Ruhle lands an interview with Harris just days after Ruhle went on “Real Time with Bill Maher” and said Harris didn’t need to answer tough questions or clarify policy positions because Trump is so horrible that voting for Harris was an obvious choice. Could this interview be anything other than an Oprah-style campaign ad?

Trump & Biden Roll on Super Tuesday, GOP Reaches California Senate Runoff, Sinema Calls It Quits

by

Listen to “Trump & Biden Roll on Super Tuesday, GOP Reaches California Senate Runoff, Sinema Calls It Quits” on Spreaker.

Join Jim and Greg as they break down a big day in politics from Super Tuesday to the balance in the U.S. Senate.

First, they acknowledge what we all expected – that Donald Trump and Joe Biden would virtually lock up their respective nominations on Tuesday – punctuated by Nikki Haley suspending her campaign Wednesday morning. But they do note that bewildering win by Democrat Jason Palmer in American Samoa & highlight the smugness of the MSNBC panel over Virginia Republicans naming immigration as their top concern. And Jim explains how he would restructure the primary season so that more voters in more states would have a say while the campaign is still competitive.

Then they break down the results of the jungle primary in California. They’re disgusted that Adam Schiff not only advanced to the general election but will be the heavy favorite. They also note former Dodgers and Padres star Steve Garvey taking the second spot behind Schiff. And hey are very pleased to see far left Reps. Katie Porter and Barbara Lee lose and be out of Congress entirely next year.

Finally, they dissect the impact of Arizona Independent Sen. Kyrsten Sinema announcing she will not run for re-election this year. While still disagreeing with Sinema on most issues, they see her six years as somewhat of a pleasant surprise for her willingness to defend the legislative filibuster in the Senate. But they also note that a far left Dem is now likely favored to win her seat.

NY Court Blocks Non-Citizen Voting, CBS vs. Herridge, McCaskill Slams NYT for Fact-Checking Biden

by

Listen to “NY Court Blocks Non-Citizen Voting, CBS vs. Herridge, McCaskill Slams NYT for Fact-Checking Biden” on Spreaker.

Join Jim and Greg as they return to their usual good, bad, and crazy martinis and head into the weekend!

First, they welcome the decision from a New York appeals court that New York City’s efforts to allow 800,000 non-citizens to vote in local elections is unconstitutional. Limiting voting to citizens is a no-brainer but Jim fears this issue will eventually wind up at the U.S. Supreme Court.

Next, they react to the news that CBS not only laid off stellar reporter Catherine Herridge but seized her files, computers, and records, including information about confidential sources. Even SAG-AFTRA is denouncing CBS in very strong terms. Just how big of a threat is this to the freedom of the press?

Finally, they shake their heads as former Missouri Sen. Claire McCaskill (who is now an MSNBC contributor) blasts the New York Times for fact-checking President Biden because she thinks they aren’t aggressive enough in calling out Donald Trump’s falsehoods. This feeds into the maddening view of some on the left who genuinely see the role the media as doing everything it can to help Biden and defeat Trump.

by

Listen to “‘Manufactured’ Climate Crisis, Another Massive Deficit, Deutsch’s Trump Delusion” on Spreaker.

Ricochet.com Editor-in-Chief Jon Gabriel is in for Jim. Today, Jon and Greg welcome the story of climate scientist Judith Curry, who confirms that the scientific “consensus” on climate change is a “manufactured consensus.” They also get a good laugh out of the proposal from Pacific Gas & Electric to stabilize California’s energy grid. Then they blast both parties as the annual deficit is already more than $1.6 trillion with two more months to go. Finally, they document the hysteria on MSNBC’s “Morning Joe” as Donny Deutsch contends that “everything will end” and freedom will end” if Donald Trump wins in 2024.

GOP Senate Prospects, Cable News Debate Drama, Lightfoot Fails Upward

by

Listen to “GOP Senate Prospects, Cable News Debate Drama, Lightfoot Fails Upward” on Spreaker.

Join Jim and Greg as they’re intrigued about possible GOP Senate campaigns from Rep. Mike Gallagher in Wisconsin and baseball great Steve Garvey in California. They also cast a wary eye on CNN and MSNBC drooling at the chance to host Republican presidential debates because they may get major fireworks between Donald Trump and Ron DeSantis. And given their constant anti-GOP content and their past performances in Republican debates, there’s plenty of reason for skepticism. Finally, they roll their eyes as failed former Chicago Mayor Lori Lightfoot lands a prime teaching gig at Harvard University with a focus on leadership.

GOP’s Big Midterm Edge, The Mirage of High-Speed Rail, Tulsi Leaves the Dems

by

Listen to “GOP’s Big Midterm Edge, The Mirage of High-Speed Rail, Tulsi Leaves the Dems” on Spreaker.

Join Jim and Greg as they welcome analysis from MSNBC’s Steve Kornacki showing the economy and inflation as the biggest concerns for voters in the midterms and Republicans ahead overwhelmingly among those voters. They also credit the New York Times for shedding the light on the insane boondoggle of California’s high-speed rail project that is $80 billion over budget and won’t be done in our lifetimes. Finally, they discuss former Hawaii Rep. Tulsi Gabbard officially leaving the Democrats and urging others fed up with the party to do the same.

Midterm Momentum, GOP Governors Compared to War Criminals, Bernie 2024?

by

Listen to “Midterm Momentum, GOP Governors Compared to War Criminals, Bernie 2024?” on Spreaker.
Join Jim and Greg as they review the latest predictions out of the Cook Political Report and  UVA Crystal Ball, which shifted 11 house races toward the Republicans. Many races were updated from ‘Likely R’ to ‘Safe R’, but it casts an ominous shadow over the Democrats’ chances of keeping the House in a critical midterm election. They also cringe at MSNBC host Nicole Wallace for calling Gov. Ron DeSantis’ education bill “dehumanizing” and comparing him and Virginia Gov. Glenn Youngkin Russian soldiers raping Ukrainian children. And despite being even older than Joe Biden, Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders is considering running for president in 2024, according to a leaked memo.
