Chad Benson is in for Greg Corombos, and Chad and Jim discuss more good national polling numbers for the GOP, a column asking whether President Biden is even capable of changing course after a midterm debacle, and Stacey Abrams’ contention that abortion is a key tool for controlling inflation.
Good Debates for Republicans, Dealing with the Saudis and Mrs. Fetterman Works the Refs
Chad Benson is in for Greg Corombos again, and he joins Jim to discuss how Republicans have done well in the most recent round of high-profile debates in the midterm races; a cost-free proposal of how to send a clear signal to the Saudi Kingdom, and how Gisele Fetterman is “working the refs” in unprecedented ways, contending the media is picking on her disabled husband.

More Bad Polls for Democrats, Kanye Is Nuts, and Biden Insists the Economy Is ‘Strong as Hell’
Chad Benson is in for Greg Corombos today, and he joins Jim to discuss new poll numbers from the New York Times that have Democrats fearing that the “red wave” might be even worse than they feared. The bad news is Kanye West is getting even nuttier and more overtly anti-Semitic, and the guys hope someone stages an intervention to save Kanye from himself. Meanwhile, the delusional President Biden stuffs his face with ice cream and insists, “the economy is as strong as hell.”

Red Wave Forming? Hobbs Keeps Ducking Debates, Fetterman’s Medical Cover-Up
Listen to “Red Wave Forming? Hobbs Keeps Ducking Debates, Fetterman’s Medical Cover-Up” on Spreaker.
Join Jim and Greg as they eagerly welcome news that national Democrats are “retrenching” their financial strategy for keeping the House of Representatives, which is the fancy way of saying they are pulling money from races they no longer think they can win. On top of that, a major pollster says there is no doubt that Republican candidates are looking stronger and stronger over the past few weeks. They also discuss the bizarre decision by Arizona Democrat Katie Hobbs to refuse any debates with Republican Kari Lake, even as more polls show Lake winning. Finally, they defend NBC reporter Dasha Burns as Democrats and their media allies savage her for sharing her honest observations of how poorly Pennsylvania Senate candidate John Fetterman holds up in casual conversation. They also blast the Fetterman campaign for keeping his health records under lock and key and blasting any honest assessment of his health as “ableism.”
Grilling the Governor, Inflation Worse Than Expected, Politico’s Putin Stunt
Join Jim and Greg as they applaud the direct and devastating attack from GOP New Mexico gubernatorial candidate Mark Ronchetti, as he blasted Gov. Michelle Lujan Grisham for grabbing the crotch of a male staffer, claiming she did nothing wrong, but also paying the staffer $150,000 to settle the complaint while forbidding the staffer from discussing the matter publicly. Ronchetti was also very effective at calling out the governor for imposing lockdowns she violated on numerous occasions. They also cringe over the latest consumer inflation numbers that come in worse than expected and prove higher prices aren’t going anywhere for awhile. Finally, they slam Politico Europe for naming Vladimir Putin as their top “green” figure because ending dependence upon Russian energy will force a revolution in renewables – ignoring the reality of people freezing to death and facing astronomical energy costs.
Inflation Sticking Around, The Media’s Fetterman Facade, Questionable Quinnipiac Polls
Join Jim and Greg as they wince over the larger-than-expected jump in the Producer Price Index in September and brace for the consumer inflation numbers tomorrow. They also discuss Jim’s in-depth reporting on Pennsylvania Senate candidate John Fetterman and the media that have coddled him for many years. And they shake their heads as the Quinnipiac Poll, which was spectacularly wrong at times in 2020, shows not only Sen. Warnock growing his lead over Herschel Walker but Brian Kemp and Stacey Abrams in an alleged dead heat in the governor’s race.
GOP’s Big Midterm Edge, The Mirage of High-Speed Rail, Tulsi Leaves the Dems
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.
Pay Pal’s Power Grab, New York’s Crime Nightmare, Arizona’s Really Weak Democrat
Three crazy martinis today as Rob Long fills in for Jim Geraghty. After Rob explains why he loves holidays in New York City, he and Greg discuss Pay Pal’s insane plan to secretly fine customer’s $2500 for social media posts it deems “disinformation” or “hate,” which nowadays means any statement the left doesn’t like. Rob shreds Pay Pal’s absurd statement in response to the controversy and explains how this may lead to action in Congress. They also highlight the rampant crime in New York City, and Rob shares how this era is different than the crime waves the city endured decades ago. They also point how how New York Mayor Eric Adams is too busy giving a lucrative job to a friend’s wife to match the one is own girlfriend got from that friend. Finally, they marvel at just how bad of a candidate Arizona Democrat Katie Hobbs is, butchering a simple question about Latinos during her campaign for governor.

Youngkin’s Smart Energy Plan, Biden’s ‘Armageddon’ Blunder, CNN’s Ham-Handed Suspension
Join Jim and Greg as they cheer Virginia Gov. Glenn Youngkin for a very sensible plan to champion gas and nuclear power as a way to keep energy abundant and affordable. They also shudder as President Biden starts blabbing about how Russia has us closer to “Armageddon” than any time since the Cuban Missile Crisis. And they highlight just how partisan and petty CNN’s former leadership was in suspending conservative commentator Mary Katherine Ham for a very flimsy reason and never even telling her.
GOP Plans China Focus, Trafalgar’s Bold Theory, Twitter’s ‘Fact-Checking’
Listen to “GOP Plans China Focus, Trafalgar’s Bold Theory, Twitter’s ‘Fact-Checking'” on Spreaker.
Join Jim and Greg as they cheer House Republicans for planning to shine a bright spotlight on China’s many atrocities at home and abroad – from pushing fentanyl into the U.S. to supply chain vulnerability to the persecution of the Uighurs. They also discuss the unique polling approach of the Trafalgar surveys and what it will mean if Republican voters are even more reticent to say who they support but are more determined than ever to vote. And they sigh as Twitter promises ramped-up “fact-checking” that will ramp up before the midterms.
