GOP Governors Top Fiscal Ratings, Israeli Strike Plans Leaked Again, Social Security & Walz’s Mom

by

Listen to “GOP Governors Top Fiscal Ratings, Israeli Strike Plans Leaked Again, Social Security & Walz’s Mom” on Spreaker.

Join Jim and Greg as they discuss how Republican governors do much better than Democrats on fiscal policy, the infuriating leak of Israel’s plans to strike Iran, and why Tim Walz is so reluctant to help his own mother.

First, they analyze the CATO Institute report card, which grades 48 U.S. governors on controlling spending and improving tax policies. Notably, all six governors receiving an ‘A’ were Republicans, while all six earning an ‘F’ were Democrats, including Tim Walz. Jim and Greg explore the reasons behind these results and highlight a few surprising names on the list.

Next, frustration mounts over the leak of classified Israeli military plans to strike Iran. This follows previous instances of U.S. officials being caught off guard by successful Israeli strikes in the Middle East. Jim explains how several key figures in the Biden administration are far too cozy with Iran and wonders why allies would share sensitive material with us in the future.

Finally, they address Tim Walz’s recent comments in North Carolina about his mother’s reliance on Social Security for basic needs. Jim and Greg explain how Social Security is intended as  supplement to your retirement plan and wonder why Walz allows his mother to live in such a precarious financial situation. This is at least the second time Walz has referred to leaving his elderly mom to fend for herself. He also made her go home and live by herself after heart surgery during COVID because he feared negative headlines if he brought her to his home.

GOP Senate Majority in Reach, Our Spiraling Debt Crisis, CBS’s Self-Inflicted Wounds

by

Listen to “GOP Senate Majority in Reach, Our Spiraling Debt Crisis, CBS’s Self-Inflicted Wounds” on Spreaker.

Join Jim and Greg as they discuss more good polling for incumbent GOP senators and two key challengers, the sobering facts and projections about our massive debt and deficits, and the no good, very bad week for CBS News.

First, they break down promising polling for incumbent GOP senators like Florida’s Rick Scott and Texas’ Ted Cruz, as well as key challenger Tim Sheehy’s growing lead over Democrat Sen. Jon Tester in Montana. The outlook for a Republican Senate majority in 2025 is improving.

Next, they groan as new numbers and projections from the Congressional Budget Office (CBO) show a $1.8 trillion deficit for this past fiscal year and an even bigger one expected for the year to come. The figures also show that just paying the interest on the debt cost taxpayers $892 billion in Fiscal Year 2024 and will be more than a trillion dollars next year. It’s unsustainable and neither party cares.

Finally, they chronicle the horrible week for CBS News. This includes network management chastising “CBS This Morning” Co-Host Tony Dokoupil for asking some tough questions of Ta-Nehisi Coates about his new book that’s very hostile towards Israel,  “60 Minutes” egregiously editing the interview with Kamala Harris, and network brass telling reporters not to say that Jerusalem is in Israel.

Breaking Down Biden’s State of the Union

by

Listen to “Breaking Down Biden’s State of the Union” on Spreaker.

We’ve had all good martinis and all crazy martinis this week. So it makes sense that Jim and Greg close the week with all bad martinis as they assess President Biden’s State of the Union address and the Republican response.
First, they note that Biden responded to criticism that he often comes off as low energy and mentally meandering by showing up angry, talking quickly, and turning the speech into more of a convention address than what the event is supposed to be. But Jim says if the Biden team was trying to invigorate the left-wing base, it may have helped him politically. They also highlight his inappropriate trash talking of the Supreme Court and his fiction over deficit spending.
Then, they take aim at Biden’s ill-conceived idea of building a pier on or near the Gaza coast to bring in humanitarian relief. And while Biden says there will be no American “boots on the ground,” if they’re anywhere close, this is a very bad idea. Jim also asserts that this move is simply Biden’s efforts to win back Muslim voters in Michigan.
Finally, they’re less than thrilled with the GOP performance on Thursday. They discuss the excellent content in the official response from Alabama Sen. Katie Britt but debate whether the emotional delivery was effective. Moreover, given the late start to the Biden speech, Jim suspects the nation’s opinion of the Republicans will be based more on Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene’s disruptions of Biden than the actual response.

Biden’s Actual Border Beliefs, Herridge Harassed Over Reporting Again, Senate GOP Leader Race Already Starting

by

Listen to “Biden’s Actual Border Beliefs, Herridge Harassed Over Reporting Again, Senate GOP Leader Race Already Starting” on Spreaker.

Jim and Greg serve up a clarifying good martini plus conventional bad and crazy ones to wind up the week.

First, they offer a timely reminder of Biden’s promises from 2020 on border security, sanctuary cities, and who ought to be deported. The comments explain why we saw the border crisis explode on his watch and suggest his recent get tough approach is only a political maneuver.

They also cringe as stellar national security reporter Catherine Herridge is ordered to pay fines of $800 per day for refusing to divulge her sources on a story connection a U.S.-based scientist with the Chinese Communist Party.

Finally, they groan in reaction to the race already beginning to replace Senate GOP Leader Mitch McConnell, even though the conference elections aren’t until November, we have no idea how many Republicans will be in the Senate, and how many current ones will still be there.

Biden Numbers Plummet Again, Senate GOP Border Surrender? Kerry to Biden’s Rescue?

by

Listen to “Biden Numbers Plummet Again, Senate GOP Border Surrender? Kerry to Biden’s Rescue?” on Spreaker.

Join Jim and Greg as they tee up three big martinis as we all wait for results in the Iowa Caucuses tonight.

FIrst, they’re thankful Jim was finally able to return home from Iowa. Then they dive into a new ABC poll showing President Biden at just 33 percent approval and 58 percent of Americans disapproving. And less than 30 percent think he mentally or physically up to the job.

Then, they’re horrified by reports indicating that Oklahoma Sen. James Lankford is about to surrender to Democrats on an immigration bill that would only make the border crisis even worse.

Finally, they get a kick out of Biden “climate envoy” John Kerry planning to step down to work directly on Biden’s re-election campaign.

Exposing the Hamas Hospital Lies, House GOP Still in Disarray, Gov. Hochul’s Social Media Snooping

by

Listen to “Exposing the Hamas Hospital Lies, House GOP Still in Disarray, Gov. Hochul’s Social Media Snooping” on Spreaker.

Join Jim and Greg as they welcome the detailed reporting from CNN’s Nic Robertson, as Israeli Defense Forces explained to him on camera how Hamas was using a hospital in Gaza as an armory and military command post – a strategy that unnecessarily put many civilians in harm’s way.

They also sigh as House Republicans still cannot seem to agree on much – the latest evidence being the failure to impeach Homeland Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas, who so richly deserves to get the boot. There’s also the fight over government spending as the Freedom Caucus refuses to get behind another continuing resolution backed by House Speaker Mike Johnson.

Finally, they say no way as New York Gov. Kathy Hochul announces she has created a social media analysis unit to crack down on hate online. While there is too much hate online, giving the government more power over our speech is a recipe for disaster.

House Censures Rep. Tlaib, GOP’s Election Losses, Can Republicans Get Back to Winning?

by

Listen to “House Censures Rep. Tlaib, GOP’s Election Losses, Can Republicans Get Back to Winning?” on Spreaker.

Join Jim and Greg as they welcome the House of Representatives delivering a bipartisan censure to Michigan Rep, Rashida Tlaib for her brazen lies about the Gaza hospital bombing and her overt gaslighting about the true meaning of “From the river to the sea, Palestine will be free.”

They also sigh as they track disappointing election results in Kentucky, Virginia, and Ohio. They also offer reasons for the GOP’s losses, where the politics go next on abortion, and much more. Plus, they try to find some silver linings.

Finally, they wonder when the Republican Party will have some tough discussions about the path forward and whether any of that will come up in tonight’s GOP presidential debate.

The State of the 2024 Presidential Campaign

by

Listen to “The State of the 2024 Presidential Campaign” on Spreaker.

Election Day 2024 is more than 16 months away, but the first Republican debate is less than two months away and voters in the first primary and caucus states will be casting their ballots in just a few months. Today, Jim and Greg examine the state of the campaign in three different ways.
First, they look at the Democratic primary. While President Biden has a commanding lead over Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. and Marianne Williamson, the enthusiasm – even among Democrats – is very low for another four years of Biden. Will the Democrats stick with Biden regardless of his approval numbers and mounting evidence of physical and mental decline?
Then they pivot to the Republican primary, where former President Trump has opened a big lead over Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis both nationally and increasingly in the states. Is the GOP base loyalty towards Trump locked in and virtually irreversible or is there an avenue for DeSantis or anyone else to close the gap.
Finally, they preview a likely Biden-Trump rematch and consider how much the electorate has changed in the past few years. Will Biden’s poor performance be enough of a boost for Trump or will Trump’s focus on 2020 and his legal challenges lead to another four years for Biden?

House GOP on Offense, Major DeSantis Momentum, Florida’s Desperate Dems

by

Listen to “House GOP on Offense, Major DeSantis Momentum, Florida’s Desperate Dems” on Spreaker.

Join Jim and Greg as they bring you two good martinis along with a crazy one that’s also pretty good. First, they applaud the House GOP and National Republican Congressional Committee for being on offense during the debt ceiling fight and having more effective messaging on this issues than any time in recent memory. They also take note of the long list of legislative victories that Gov. Ron DeSantis and Florida lawmakers piled up this year, and how it will serve as a springboard into a DeSantis White House bid. Finally, they get a kick out of some Florida Dems trying to recruit former NBA stars Grant Hill and Dwyane Wade into running for U.S. Senate next year.

Biden’s Sinking Polls, Dems Defending TikTok, Sinema’s Curious Strategy

by

Listen to “Biden’s Sinking Polls, Dems Defending TikTok, Sinema’s Curious Strategy” on Spreaker.

Join Jim and Greg as they welcome a new Associated Press poll showing Americans can clearly see President Biden’s weak performance on the economy and his overall job performance. They also groan as the CEO of TikTok tries to dodge questions about whether the app is spying on users and TikTok’s connection to the Chinese Communist Party. Plus, they hammer the Democrats for glibly opposing the effort to crack down on TikTok after agreeing to ban it on government devices last year. Finally, they break down Arizona Sen. Kyrsten Sinema’s strategy of cozying up to the right in advance of a likely 2024 re-election bid.
