    SCOTUS Free Speech Ruling & The Birthright Citizenship Clash

    Inez Stepman of the Independent Women’s Forum fills in for Jim Geraghty on Wednesday’s 3 Martini Lunch. Today, Inez and Greg break down a major Supreme Court free speech ruling, the latest birthright citizenship arguments before the court, Congress leaving DHS unfunded for another two weeks, and the jaw-dropping cost of college at George Washington University & other schools. First, they react to the Supreme Court’s 8-1 ruling against a Colorado law that banned therapists from counseling minors to accept that their biological sex is correct. Inez also slams Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson as essentially writing op-eds from the bench instead of rooting decisions in the law. They also discuss today's high profile birthright citizenship case. Next, they take Congress to task for leaving Washington for a two-week break while the Department of Homeland Security remains unfunded. Inez argues this dysfunction underscores the need for at least a talking filibuster, and maybe an end to the fllibuster altogether, to get things done. Greg is skeptical that ending the filibuster would be good in the short term or the long term. Then, they dig into the skyrocketing cost of higher education after reports that George Washington University will charge returning students up to $98,000 per year for tuition, room, and board. Inez explains how government involvement in higher education continues to drive prices higher, leaving families burdened while universities reap the benefits. Finally, they highlight the scheduled launch of the Artemis II mission, which aims to send astronauts around the moon and pave the way for future lunar landings and a permanent base there. They're glad to see America aiming high again, both in exploration and for our national security.

    Daily Mail Report Ignites False Claims in Charlie Kirk Case

    National Review Senior Editor Charles C.W. Cooke, host of the Charles C.W. Cooke Podcast, fills in for Jim on Tuesday’s 3 Martini Lunch. Charlie and Greg break down misleading Daily Mail reporting fueling conspiracy theories about the Charlie Kirk murder case, White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt blasting media silence on a high-profile crime committed by an illegal alien, and backlash from The View over comments encouraging young women to get married and have kids. First, they dismantle a Daily Mail report highlighting a defense motion in the Charlie Kirk murder case that’s being framed as a bombshell revelation. Charlie explains why the filing is a routine legal strategy and not evidence supporting conspiracy theories promoted by figures like Candace Owens. They also praise Karoline Leavitt for calling out major broadcast networks for giving minimal coverage to the murder of Loyola University student Sheridan Gorman by an illegal alien. Charlie and Greg examine the media’s reluctance to spotlight crimes involving illegal immigrants and the left's pattern of protecting violent criminal illegals from deportation. Next, they dig into why the women on The View would be so horrified that a speaker at last week's CPAC encouraged young women to prioritize marriage and having children while they are young. Charlie also points out the policy ignorance on display in the reaction on The View.  Finally, in today’s chaser, they react to the bizarre story of twelve tons of KitKat products stolen in Europe. While condemning the theft, Charlie and Greg reveal which candy or snack they would be most tempted to swipe.

    The Dystopian Future the "No Kings" Protestors Really Want | Guest Host: Nick Freitas

    Former Virginia Del. Nick Freitas, host of the Making the Argument podcast, fills in for Jim Geraghty on the Monday 3 Martini Lunch. Nick and Greg break down the real agenda behind the “No Kings” protests, Pennsylvania Democrats hilariously failing to honor National Women's Month, and what's really happening with the Virginia Democrats aggressive far left agenda. First, they highlight the latest series of "No Kings" protests around the U.S. this past weekend and how numerous rallies featured communist flags and banners. They also highlight how this supposedly grassroots effort is funded and carefully organized by very far left groups.  Next, they get a good laugh as Democrats in Pennsylvania try to approve a resolution honoring National Women's Month. But a very simple Republican amendment ended up derailing the whole thing. We share the story and discuss how the the party that supposedly champions women ends up insulting and disrespecting them over and over again. Finally, Freitas draws on his experience in the Virginia House of Delegates to explain what's really happening as Democrats lurch far to the left and which parts of their agenda disturb him most. Nick also previews his upcoming book, The Man Book.

    Senate Funds DHS But Who Actually Caved?

    Join Jim and Greg for the Friday 3 Martini Lunch as they dissect the Senate deal to fund the Department of Homeland Security except for ICE and Customs & Border Patrol, reports that many more U.S. ground forces may be mobilized for the war with Iran, and San Francisco school officials reverse the big mistake of eliminating middle school algebra, which had been done in the name of "equity." First, they react to the U.S. Senate passing funding for most of DHS, while excluding ICE and Customs and Border Protection, via a late-night voice vote. Jim and Greg unpack why some conservatives see this as a strategic Republican win, while others argue the GOP squandered critical leverage  and caved in this standoff. Next, they examine reports that up to 10,000 additional U.S. ground forces could be mobilized to the Middle East, giving President Trump more options in the war with Iran. Jim explains why he supports the war effort but stresses that the administration must clearly and publicly justify the deployment of any ground troops. Finally, they offer muted applause for the San Francisco School Board after it reverses its controversial decision to eliminate middle school algebra in the name of “equity.” With test scores declining in the years since the change, Jim explains why dumbing down standards and expectations hurts everyone.

    Jimmy Kimmel’s 'Plumber' Joke Against DHS Sec. Sparks Backlash

    Join Jim and Greg for the Thursday 3 Martini Lunch as they break down Pennsylvania Sen. John Fetterman blasting fellow Democrats over the DHS shutdown, Jimmy Kimmel mocking Homeland Security Secretary Markwayne Mullin’s blue-collar background, Iran’s absurd demands to end the war, and a House Democrat edging closer to expulsion. First, they applaud Fetterman for forcefully rejecting his party’s push to keep the Department of Homeland Security shut down and shredding their arguments for doing so. They also call out Jimmy Kimmel for ridiculing Sec. Mullin’s roots as a plumber Then they get a kick out of Iran’s laughable negotiating demands to end the war. Greg uses a personal analogy to explain why Iran has no leverage, while Jim asks a very important question about any future negotiations. Finally, they react to the House Ethics Committee advancing closer toward a possible expulsion of Florida Rep. Sheila Cherfilus-McCormick following her indictment on corruption charges. Jim and Greg examine why party leaders so often circle the wagons instead of cutting loose members who should be an embarrassment to the party and to the nation.

    Joe Kent Says He’d Defend Charlie Kirk Assassin in Court

    Join Jim and Greg for the Wednesday 3 Martini Lunch as they break down Senate Democrats rejecting an overly generous Republican offer to fund the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), Joe Kent’s offering to testify for the defense in the Charlie Kirk murder case, and escalating chaos in California’s Democratic gubernatorial race. First, they highlight Senate Republicans making the absurd concession of agreeing not to fund ICE’s deportation office in exchange for funding the rest of DHS. Even so, Senate Democrats are refusing the deal. Jim explains what this rejection reveals about the Dems' disturbing mindset. Next, they react with disbelief as former National Counterterrorism Center Director Joe Kent claims the FBI blocked his investigation into Charlie Kirk’s assassination and now says he is willing to testify in defense of the accused killer. Jim and Greg weigh in on the unhinged, conspiracy-minded podcast hosts and what this tells us about Kent in particular. Finally, they have some fun with the dysfunction in California’s governor race after a planned debate was canceled due to controversy over which Democratic candidates were invited. Plus, the ones invited were all white and none of the ones left out were white. Jim and Greg sift through the incredibly pathetic field on the left and how they're playing identity politics against one another.

    Join Jim and Greg for the Tuesday 3 Martini Lunch as they weigh in on an Illinois politician blaming the victim for being murdered by an illegal alien, Tucker Carlson praising the supposed tolerance of Sharia Law, and the Senate confirming Oklahoma Sen. Markwayne Mullin as Secretary of Homeland Security. First, they fume over the murder of a college student near Loyola University in Chicago, allegedly at the hands of an illegal immigrant. A Chicago alderman quickly suggested on social media that the victim may unintentionally be to blame or her own killing. Jim calls out the left's huge double standard on illegals. Next, Jim and Greg react to Tucker Carlson’s latest comments defending Sharia Law as tolerant welcoming diversity.

Then, they discuss the Senate’s swift confirmation of Sen. Markwayne Mullin as Secretary of Homeland Security. And in the chaser, Jim and Greg react to Tom Steyer, the billionaire Democrat running for governor of California, making a truly bizarre statement about current Gov. Gavin Newsom.
