Trump's Lawyers Crush Cohen, Gaza Relief Gets Stolen, Biden's Hostage Blunder
Greg and Jim have a lot to discuss as they unpack the stellar work that Trump's defense attorneys did as they cross-examined former Trump loyalist Michael Cohen, the disastrous looting of U.S. aid being sent to the Gaza strip, and the latest cringeworthy Biden gaffe.
First, they praise Donald Trump's lawyers for being on their A-game while handling Michael Cohen's cross-examination and examining the final witnesses. They observe that the prosecution's case has been badly damaged at this point, but that we still cannot be certain of what the final verdict will be.
Next, they criticize the U.N's poor handling of the transportation of relief supplies in Gaza, as looters are scrambling for the aid that the U.S. has sent over. They contemplate whether these looters might have an association with Hamas, and note that the officials who are transporting the aid must provide armed security if they hope to secure their supplies.
Finally, they roll their eyes as Biden puts his senility into full view once again, introducing an American hostage...who is still being held by Hamas. They speculate on whether the Democratic Party might swap Biden for another candidate before this year's election, depending on whether he can pull it together for the upcoming debate with Trump.

Iran's President Killed, Biden's Racial Demagoguery, Lake Looks Like a Loser
Greg is back on a busy news day, as he and Jim discuss the death of Iran's president, Biden's disgustingly divisive commencement speech, and the GOP latching on to a loser in the Arizona U.S Senate race.
First, they shed zero tears upon the death of radical Iranian President Ebrahim Raisi and three other officials in a helicopter crash on Sunday. They document Raisi's murderous record and why his death is not worth mourning, but they also note that not much will change anytime soon for the Iranian people eager to be free.
Next, they hammer President Biden for his racially divisive demagoguery in his commencement address at Morehouse College in Georgia. They not only dissect the appalling lies in the speech but also what it tells us about how Biden and his advisers see the state of the 2024 campaign.
Finally, they groan as a new poll shows Democrat Ruben Gallego leading Republican Kari Lake by a wide margin in the Arizona Senate race. They see Lake as a surefire loser with way too much political baggage and urge GOP voters there to pick a nominee who would be far better at the job and would actually have a chance at winning in November.

Presidential Election Maps; Juveniles in Congress; PGA Felon
Jim and guest host Chad Benson close out the week by asking if the state of Minnesota is really as safe for Joe Biden as Democrats insist, roll their eyes at the latest ridiculous juvenile behavior on Capitol Hill, and then contemplate the future options of the notorious dangerous outlaw, PGA champion Scottie Scheffler.

HHS Funding Changes in Wuhan; Presidential Debates; Democratic Convention
Chad is still in for Greg, and he and Jim warn that Donald Trump may have agreed to a bad deal on the debate schedule, and marvel that a Democratic congressman is so worried about 1968-style violence outside the Democratic National Convention in Chicago that he wants the whole convention canceled.

Presidential Debates; Tariffs; Inflation
GOOD: Well, for what it's worth, Biden says he wants to do debates. I'll believe it when I see it.
BAD: I'm a cheap date when it comes to any policy that aims to hurt the Chinese government, but these tariffs are window-dressing that are a favor to labor unions, not a real effort to hit China.
CRAZY: So when Biden says twice in five days that inflation was 9 percent when he took office, is that a deliberate lie, a sign he doesn't remember being corrected, or evidence no one around him bothered to correct him?

Biden's Overconfidence, High Senate Stakes, and Psaki's Falsehood
Chad Benson is in for Greg Corombos today; Chad and Jim note that the Biden and his campaign insist that all of the polls are wrong, and that's he actually ahead of Trump. Feeling good, Democrats? Meanwhile, an unnerving observation is that if Democrats keep control of the Senate after this year's elections, there won't be a Joe Manchin or a Kyrsten Sinema around to constrain them. Meanwhile, Jen Psaki's new autobiography includes an error so glaring that even Kristi Noem exclaimed, "Wow, you need to hire a proofreader."
