Trudeau in Trouble, Trump & the Whistleblower, House GOP’s Tired 2020 Agenda

by

Listen to “Trudeau in Trouble, Trump & the Whistleblower, House GOP’s Tired 2020 Agenda” on Spreaker.

It’s all crazy martinis today!  Jim Geraghty of National Review and Greg Corombos of Radio America start with Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau found to have used blackface on at least three occasions but the maddening part is how the left is urging everyone to calm down with respect to Trudeau when they would have cast a non-leftist to the wolves and even Trudeau himself says these sorts of stories ought to be judges on a case by case basis.  They also wait for more information after reports say an intelligence whistleblower is accusing Trump of making a shocking promise to a world leader.  Is this a major scandal in the making or just more media hyperventilation?  And let’s just say they’re severely underwhelmed as House Republicans make repealing Obamacare and reducing the national debt their priorities if voters return to the majority – particularly when they did neither when they had the chance in the first two years of the Trump administration.

The Real Kavanaugh Bombshell, Harris Polls Implode, SJW’s Target Yang

by

Listen to “The Real Kavanaugh Bombshell, Harris Polls Implode, SJW’s Target Yang” on Spreaker.

The laughs are even more abundant than usual today on the Three Martini Lunch!  Jim Geraghty of National Review and Greg Corombos of Radio America begin by applauding CBS for reporting the real headline from the new books on the Kavanuagh fight – that one of Christine Blasey Ford’s supposed witnesses was pressured to lie to support Ford’s story.  They also enjoy seeing poll after poll showing Sen. Kamala Harris is slipping badly from her position as a top tier candidate.  And as liberal critics wring their hands over Andrew Yang joking that he knows a lot of doctors because he’s Asian, Jim and Greg suggest everyone lighten up and have some fun with their own ethnicities.

Indiana Abortion Investigation, Kamala’s Kavanaugh Hysteria, NYT Damage Control

by

Listen to “Indiana Abortion Investigation, Kamala’s Kavanaugh Hysteria, NYT Damage Control” on Spreaker.

Jim Geraghty of National Review and Greg Corombos of Radio America welcome word that a federal investigation will be opened into how a prominent Indiana abortion provider allied with Pete Buttigieg ended up with more than 2,000 fetal remains in his home.  They also shake their heads as Kamala Harris not only calls for Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh to be impeached but also contends that Christine Blasey Ford was “treated like a criminal” and that the Kavanaugh confirmation created a “crisis of confidence” in the Supreme Court.  And Jim has plenty to say as the two New York Times reporters behind the latest Kavanaugh allegation insist their original article included the fact the supposed victim has no memory of the incident but their editors took it out of the story.

Hemingway, Severino Dissect Latest Anti-Kavanaugh Smear

by

Listen to “Hemingway, Severino Dissect Latest Anti-Kavanaugh Smear” on Spreaker.

Over the weekend, the New York Times mentioned a previously unreported allegation about Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh’s conduct while a student at Yale University. But there were some big problems with the accusation.

First, the person alleging a different lewd incident involving Kavanaugh did not speak to the New York Times. The reporters in the story, who are also set to release a book on Kavanaugh, only spoke to people who say they are familiar with the accusation.

Even more shocking, the Times initially failed to report that the alleged victim in this story has no recollection of the incident in question. The Times finally added that piece of information after being called out by Mollie Hemingway, a senior editor at The Federalist.

Hemingway and Judicial Crisis Network Chief Counsel Carrie Severino are the authors of the #1 bestseller “Justice on Trial: The Kavanaugh Confirmation and the Future of the Supreme Court.”

In this interview with Greg Corombos, Hemingway and Severino discuss this latest attempt to accuse Justice Kavanaugh and why they are not at all surprised at this new effort to sully his reputation.

They also discuss the long-term goals of Democrats with respect to the Supreme Court and the federal judiciary, and they reveal the immense political pressure applied to one of Christine Blasey Ford’s high school friends last year to verify Ford’s initial accusation against Kavanaugh – even though she knew nothing about it.

Beto Foils Dem Gun Narrative, Iran Gets Aggressive, More Kavanaugh Craziness

by

Listen to “Beto Foils Dem Gun Narrative, Iran Gets Aggressive, More Kavanaugh Craziness” on Spreaker.

Jim Geraghty of National Review and Greg Corombos of Radio America enjoy watching some Democrats fret that Beto O’Rourke’s vow to take everyone’s AR-15 and AK-47 might convince voters that Democrats are after our guns.  They also shudder as Iranian-funded and armed rebels in Yemen attack Saudi oil production facilities, leading to much higher tensions in the region.  And they hammer the New York Times for publishing a new, salacious allegation against Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh while omitting the fact the alleged victim has no memory of the incident.

McCabe Appeal Rejected, Castro vs. Biden, Yang’s Gimmick

by

Listen to “McCabe Appeal Rejected, Castro vs. Biden, Yang’s Gimmick” on Spreaker.

Jim Geraghty of National Review and Greg Corombos of Radio America are pleased to see a high-ranking government official actually moving closer to facing the same type of prosecution most Americans would face for allegedly divulging sensitive information and then lying about it.  Jim also hilariously shreds CNN legal analyst Jeffrey Toobin for acting like the allegations in the case are incredibly complicated.  They also size up the third Democratic presidential debate and hammer Julian Castro for his obvious suggestion that Joe Biden is too mentally fuzzy to be president.  And they roll their eyes as Andrew Yang vows to give ten Americans a thousand dollars a month over the next year.

What You’re Not Hearing About Vaping

by

Listen to “What You’re Not Hearing About Vaping” on Spreaker.

On Wednesday, President Trump announced the Food and Drug Administration will be finalizing the details to ban all non-tobacco flavored vaping products.  The action comes after a number of recent deaths and hospitalizations were blamed on vaping.

But Consumer Choice Center Senior Fellow Jeff Stier says Trump and the media are missing huge chunks of the real story.  As a result, he says the government is about to take sweeping action that will do nothing to solve the problem and will actually make it much worse.

While Stier admits he tends to let adults make their own decisions on products like vaping, his frustration over Trump’s decision is that it’s not supported by the facts.

According to Stier, e-cigarettes are 95 percent less harmful than traditional cigarettes and millions of ex-smokers are now healthier because they switched to vaping.

Furthermore, Stier says nicotine vaping is not related to the health scares and deaths seen in recent weeks.  It’s actually street versions of vapes with very different ingredients.

“Every bit of scientific evidence that we have (of the damaging vapes) points to vaping of THC butane hash oil contaminated with Vitamin E acetate, which should never be heated and inhaled into the lungs,” said Stier.

Stier says banning nicotine vapes for problems they don’t cause would be like banning hypodermic needles because some use them to inject damaging drugs into their systems.

Listen to the full podcast as Stier explains what will happen to the number of medical emergencies linked to vaping if the FDA follows through on this ban.

Listen to “Condi Crushes NBC, Supremes Side with Trump, Dems Duke it Out” on Spreaker.

Jim Geraghty of National Review and Greg Corombos of Radio America cheer Former Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice for utterly rejecting the suggestion from NBC’s Savannah Guthrie that Russian meddling may have tipped the 2016 election to President Trump – and explaining what really did happen.  They also welcome the U.S. Supreme Court siding with the Trump administration in requiring asylum seekers to apply for asylum in any country they enter on the way to the U.S.  And they pop the popcorn as the Biden campaign takes a swing at Elizabeth Warren and Marianne Williamson complains that the Democrats are meaner to her than conservatives.  Finally, they figure out ways to tolerate a three-hour Democratic presidential debate tonight.

Listen to “Inside the Pentagon on 9/11” on Spreaker.

On September 11, 2001, U.S. Navy Captain Tom Joyce was at his post in the Pentagon. After learning of the attacks in New York City, he knew America was under attack and that the Pentagon could be a target.

In this interview from the one-year anniversary of 9/11, Joyce walks us through what happened that morning, and how he and his colleagues responded after American Airlines Flight 77 crashed into the Pentagon. He also recounts the immediate resolve of everyone in the building and how his Christian faith sustained him during those difficult days.

Listen to “GOP Wins in Carolina, Iran Loves Bolton Exit, Trump Dynasty?” on Spreaker.

Jim Geraghty of National Review and Greg Corombos of Radio America are glad to see Republicans hold on to a pair of North Carolina congressional seats, including one that Democrats were hoping would be a harbinger of 2020.  They also shudder as Iranian President Hassan Rouhani cheers the exit of National Security Adviser John Bolton and now urges President Trump to end the maximum pressure campaign.  And they groan as Trump Campaign Manager Brad Parscale openly forecasts a Trump political dynasty.
