  • The Left's 'Resist' Regrets, Dems OK Shielding Terrorists from ICE, Comey's Shell Game

    The Left's 'Resist' Regrets, Dems OK Shielding Terrorists from ICE, Comey's Shell Game
    May 16 2025
    Join Jim and Greg for 3 Martini Lunch as they tackle a stunning admission from the left that prosecuting Donald Trump was part of the broader "resist" movement—and that it clearly backfired. They also slam Arlington County, Virginia, for prioritizing the protection of dangerous criminals over cooperating with ICE, and they rip into former FBI Director James Comey for suggesting we get rid of President Trump.

    First, Jim and Greg spotlight former Pete Buttigieg adviser Lis Smith, who openly admitted, “We resisted so hard between 2017-2024. We impeached (Trump). We prosecuted him, convicted him of 34 felony counts. And guess what? He still got elected.” CNN conservative commentator Scott Jennings that proves the legal cases against Trump were designed to derail his campaign. Jim argues not only did those efforts fail—they backfired dramatically.

    Next, they unload on Arlington County, Virginia, where local officials voted unanimously to prevent county police from contacting federal immigration authorities—no matter the charges against the illegal immigrants in their custody. This week, the county board removed exceptions even for those suspected of terrorism, human trafficking, gang activity, or violent felonies. Jim suspects this insanity is driven by short-term political calculations.

    Finally, they break down the controversy surrounding an Instagram post by former FBI Director James Comey, which featured seashells spelling out “8647.” The message is widely interpreted as “get rid of Trump, the 47th president." Jim suspects Comey was not calling for violence. But he also points out that there really is no way Trump will resign or be impeached during this term, so the only other way to "86" him would involve "something really terrible." Greg says Comey should already be in a heap of serious legal trouble for letting Hillary Clinton skate and for his malicious role in targeting Trump through Operation Crossfire Hurricane.

  • Strong April Border Numbers, Biden Cabinet Confessions, Pentagon-Airport Hotline Fail

    Strong April Border Numbers, Biden Cabinet Confessions, Pentagon-Airport Hotline Fail
    May 15 2025
    Join Jim and Greg for Tuesday’s 3 Martini Lunch as they examine big developments on President Trump's border enforcement, former cabinet officials dishing on Biden's decline while staying off the record, and an alarming communications failure between the Pentagon and Reagan National Airport that lasted three years - including the night of January's fatal mid-air collision.

    First, they cheer April’s southern border numbers, with just 8,383 apprehensions reported—down 93 percent from April 2024. Jim says the stunning turnaround under President Trump is likely to be ignored by most media outlets now that the crisis is under control.

    Next, they dig into a report featuring three former Biden cabinet secretaries who described the former president as “disoriented and out of it,” even observing his mouth agape during meetings. But the sources remain anonymous. Jim wants to know why these cabinet officials didn't invoke the 25th Amendment to remove Biden from office. Greg slams these anonymous cabinet officials as cowards for not putting their names on their statements, probably because they still have political ambitions.

    Finally, they’re stunned by revelations this week that "a hotline connecting air traffic controllers at Reagan National Airport and their counterparts at the Pentagon has been inoperable since March 2022." That means it also wasn't working on January 29, when an Army helicopter flew into the path of an American Airlines jet on approach for landing. The hotline was inoperable for nearly three years of the Biden administration and was not discovered until this month.

  • Judge Indicted for ICE Stunt, Trump Lifts Syria Sanctions, Clooney & A Clueless Biden

    Judge Indicted for ICE Stunt, Trump Lifts Syria Sanctions, Clooney & A Clueless Biden
    May 14 2025
    Join Jim and Greg for the 3 Martini Lunch as they discuss the indictment of a Wisconsin judge for helping an illegal immigrant escape Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), President Trump’s plan to lift sanctions on Syria, and George Clooney’s story of President Biden’s cognitive decline.

    First, after a quick note on the latest air traffic control concerns at Newark Airport, Jim and Greg welcome news of a grand jury indictment against Judge Hannah Dugan. She’s accused of helping a criminal illegal immigrant avoid arrest by ICE. New reports suggest the judge went even further to shield the defendant from federal authorities. But with the case unfolding in deep blue Milwaukee, they wonder if the prosecution can actually win a conviction.

    Next, they analyze President Trump’s announcement from the Middle East that he intends to lift U.S. sanctions on Syria and its new leadership. Is it a shrewd, strategic attempt to peel Syria away from Iran and Russia, or a premature reward for a leader with a long history in radical Islamist terrorism? Jim explains why he thinks Trump is making the right decision.

    Finally, they react to George Clooney’s claim that President Biden failed to recognize him at a major fundraiser Clooney hosted in June 2024. While some on the right suggest Clooney was only alarmed because Biden's lack of recognition bruised his ego, Jim points to this as another example that Biden was not up to the job but Democrats and the media tried to cover for him until they couldn't any longer.

Every day, the 2 commentators pick three news items and rate them as a "good", "bad" or "crazy" martini. You get a short summary of the issue and their response and why they ranked them. Conservative bent but focus is mainly commonsense. Conservatives and liberals get called out. 20 minutes long, published M-F. Lots of fun - give it a try.

Short, sharp and timely
