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

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.
