DeSantis vs. Newsom, House Expels Santos, Is Biden Abandoning Israel?
Join Jim and Greg for a very full Friday edition. First, they react to the passing of former U.S. Supreme Court Justice Sandra O'Connor, who was President Reagan's first nominee to the high court.
Then they dissect the Red State vs. Blue State debate between Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis and California Gov. Gavin Newsom on Fox News - including some of the best zingers from DeSantis.
They also cover the breaking news of the U.S. House of Representatives expelling New York Rep. George Santos after dozens of indictments and a scathing ethics report over alleged rampant corruption.
Finally, they blast Secretary of State Antony Blinken and President Biden for already growing impatient with how long Israel's operation against Hamas is taking in Gaza.

Remembering Henry Kissinger, Hamas Kills More Israeli Civilians, Trump Supported by BLM?
Join Jim and Greg as they remember the long and complicated legacy of former Secretary of State Henry Kissinger, who advised presidents for 60 years before his death Wednesday at the age of 100. They highlight Kissinger's record and why he is deeply respected by some deeply reviled by others.
They also hammer Hamas for the deadly shootings of Israeli civilians in Jerusalem, including a pregnant teacher, and what this means for the temporary ceasefire in the Israel-Hamas war.
Finally, they scratch their heads after former President Trump claims he has the support of a former Black LIves Matter official and from the organization itself. While the veracity of the BLM support is drawing scrutiny, why would Trump want it in the first place?

Is Biden Getting Tough on Iran? Trump's Twitter & Your Speech, The Feds & Mayor Adams
Former federal prosecutor and National Review Contributing Editor Andy McCarthy is in while Jim Geraghty is under the weather. Today, Greg and Andy discuss new sanctions from the U.S. Treasury Department against individuals and entities helping for finance Iran's military and IRGC. But Andy explains why this step is hardly bold considering Iran's recent actions against the U.S.
Andy also breaks down the legal and constitutional impact of Special Counsel Jack Smith not only demanding many different details about President Trump's Twitter account but also Smith demanding the information of anyone who like, retweeted, or otherwise engaged with Trump in the months leading up to January 6th.
Finally, they test out Andy's postulate that Democrats only prosecute other Democrats to protect Democrats. Is the FBI publicly digging into allegations of illegal fundraising in Adams' orbit and possibly his ties to Turkey because that's where the evidence leads or because Adams is now a thorn in the side of the Biden administration?

Biden's Inflation Reality Check, Joe Wilts Under Leftist Pressure, Education Sec. Flunks Reagan 101
Join Jim and Greg as they wince at a new Bloomberg reports showing how much more Americans are paying for food, electricity, water, rent, childcare, and much more. But the report is an important rebuttal to the Biden administration's gaslighting that the inflation problem has been solved.
They also groan at reports that just one day after Biden reasonably said he does not trust casualty figures from Hamas, the president buckled under criticism from Muslim leaders, said he was ashamed of himself and promised to do better.
Finally, they have some fun as Education Sec. Miguel Cardona appears to quote President Reagan unironically as having said he was from the government and was here to help. Of course, that's exactly the opposite of what Reagan said.

U.S. Navy Thwarts Houthi Attack, The Israel-Hamas Pause, The U.S.-Canada Border Explosion
Join Jim and Greg as they return from Thanksgiving break with good, mixed, and crazy martinis. First, they cheer the U.S. Navy for ending a Houthi assault on an Israeli-linked ship off the coast of Yemen and then taking the pirates into custody.
They're also thrilled that some women and children held hostage by Hamas are now home but they are wary of the growing pressure for Israel's military pause to continue, which is a big advantage for Hamas.
Finally, they examine the mysterious car explosion at the U.S.-Canada border last week, early reports of terrorism, and the media's habit of dropping a story when the narrative suddenly changes.

Black Friday Political Gifts for 2023
It's Black Friday, the day retailers offer major deals to get shopper through their doors or online and hopefully guarantee finishing in the black for the year. Continuing a long 3 Martini Lunch tradition, Jim and Greg each offer up three gift ideas to political figures.
In the first round, Jim brings a practical gift for FTX founder, con man, and convict Sam Bankman-Fried while Greg finds a lovely present to break some tough news to Vice President Kamala Harris.
Next, Jim thinks of a gift President Biden can use on a daily basis while Greg offers medical appointments to prominent leaders who desperately need them.
Finally, Jim comes up with a gift to benefit his favorite football team in the relatively near future and Greg hopes his final offering can bring some political peace.
Enjoy the rest of your Thanksgiving vacation! Travel safely and join Jim and Greg again on Monday when they return to their usual format.

Hey y’all. If I have to hear another grating advertisement for Sooper Beeets I’m going to scratch my fingernails off on the nearest blackboard.
