3 Martini Lunch – Political Humor & Commentary

Join Jim and Greg for the Friday edition of the 3 Martini Lunch as they wrap up the weekdiscussing the latest elites caught up in the Epstein scandal, the media’s curious silence over a record-setting sewage spill into the Potomac River, and Congress leaves town for more than a week without funding the Department of Homeland Security.

First, they react to newly reported details about Jeffrey Epstein’s connections to former Obama White House Counsel Kathryn Ruemmler, far-leftauthor and commentator Noam Chomsky, and the owner of Lifetouch, one of the nation’s largest school photography companies. Jim underscores the breathtaking indifference many elites appeared to show toward Epstein’s admitted crimes.

Next, they examine what is now being described as the worst wastewater disaster in U.S. history: a massive sewage spill into the Potomac River. Despite the scale and environmental impact, both local and national media outlets have shown strikingly little interest. Jim points out how much the media covers a disaster like this depends almost entirely upon whom they can blame for it.

Finally, they fume as a partial government shutdown will begin at midnight because Democrats refuse to fund the Department of Homeland Security because of their temper tantrum over ICE. Meanwhile, lawmakers won't even be in town next week.

Join Jim and Greg for the Thursday 3 Martini Lunch as they sort through conflicting government explanations for the sudden air traffic stoppage in El Paso,  the Trump administration squeezing the economic life out of Cuba’s Communist regime, and Democrats gaslighting the public about GOP election security efforts.

First, they try to nail down the truth about why the FAA ordered a 10-day pause in air traffic around El Paso late Tuesday night. Was it a threatening Mexican drone, a party balloon mistaken for a drone, or testing of anti-drone laser technology? And there are also conflicting explanations about which part of government is responsible. 

Next, they’re pleased to see the Trump administration playing hardball with Cuba by cutting off oil supplies to the Communist regime. The economic impact is real and immediate, but what is the long-term U.S. plan there?

Finally, they shake their heads as Michigan Rep. Hillary Scholten and other Democrats baselessly claim that requiring proof of citizenship to register to vote would block married women who changed their names from voting. Jim and Greg explain how this is just the latest lie Democrats are using to oppose secure elections.

Join Jim and Greg for the Wednesday 3 Martini Lunch as they react to a chaotic House oversight hearing on ICE operations, the federal government’s sudden halt and restart of flights in El Paso, and California’s controversial “jock tax” that reportedly cost Seattle's quarterback more than he earned for winning the Super Bowl.

First, they break down the theatrics from Tuesday’s House immigration hearing, where Democrats grilled ICE Director Todd Lyons over enforcement actions. New Jersey Rep. LaMonica McIver went so far as to ask Lyons whether he believed he was going to Hell for ICE’s policies. Jim notes the absurdity of her questions and the massive double standard Democrats emply on matters of faith.

Next, they scratch their heads as the Federal Aviation Administration orders a 10-day clearance of air space around El Paso, Texas. But a few hours later, the order was lifted. At the time Jim and Greg recorded, the official explanation was the incursion of a drone from a Mexican cartel. Since then the explanations have only gotten more strange.

Finally, they comment on the insanity of California's "jock tax" which cost Seattle Seahawks quarterback Sam Darnold roughly $71,000 more than he earned for winning the game. Jim and Greg discuss how extreme this policy is and how these sorts of laws could impact the success of certain teams down the road.

Join Jim and Greg for the Tuesday 3 Martini Lunch as they break down the New York Times admitting it was wrong about supporting the legalization of marijuana, the slippery answers of possible presidential candidate Andy Beshear, Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass facing little opposition for re-election, and a public official in desperate need of a civics lesson.

First, they’re pleasantly surprised to see the New York Times editorial board concede it was wrong to champion marijuana legalization while minimizing the harms of widespread weed use. Jim and Greg discuss data showing a surge in Americans using marijuana five or more times a week and how many states have effectively flipped sides in the drug war.

Next, they turn to Kentucky Gov. Andy Beshear’s appearance on The View as he works to build national name recognition ahead of a likely 2028 presidential run. Beshear casts himself as a moderate, but Jim and Greg point to his opposition to proof-of-citizenship requirements for voter registration and his attempted veto of legislation banning transgender surgeries for minors. Jim explains how Democrats like Beshear try to hide behind their Republican legislatures to look moderate.

Then they groan as the deadline for running for Mayor of Los Angeles has come and gone and Mayor Karen Bass looks like a heavy favorite for re-election despite her disastrous performance. Is LA a lost cause or would it ever boot a Democrat from office.

Finally, they cringe as the sheriff of the largest county in North Carolina miserably fails to state how many branches of government we have and which one he is part of.
