    Dems Relentlessly Push for More Power, Some GOP Helping Them on Amnesty

    Former Virginia Attorney General Ken Cuccinelli fills in for Jim Geraghty on the Thursday 3 Martini Lunch. Today, Ken and Greg break down another maddening bipartisan push for immigration amnesty, the latest battle over Virginia’s congressional map, and a sweeping new gun control effort from Virginia Democrats. First, they examine the so-called “Dignity Act,” backed by Republican Rep. Maria Salazar, which would grant legal work status to illegal immigrants who arrived before 2021 and have not committed additional crimes. While supporters insist it’s not amnesty, Cuccinelli says it is clearly amnesty. He also explains how radical the left has become on this issue and why there are always some Republicans who never learn when it comes to this issue. Next, Ken and Greg update the fight over Democrats' efforts to radically redraw Virginia's congressional map and flip four additional seats in their favor. Cuccinelli explains why he's optimistic that the referendum will fail and why he's confident the new map won't take effect even if voters approve it. Then, they dive into Virginia Democrats’ escalating gun control agenda, highlighting how the state serves as a preview of the midterm elections. They argue it’s a clear example of the gap between the supposedly moderate promises Democrats make on the campaign trail and the far left policies they pursue once in power. Finally, after all of that bad news, they close with some refreshing wisdom from Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas about the proper role of judges.

    Sen. Ruben Gallego Claims Ignorance as Swalwell Scandal Grows

    Join Jim and Greg for the Wednesday 3 Martini Lunch as they break down Arizona Sen. Ruben Gallego’s efforts to distance himself from disgraced former Rep. Eric Swalwell, the radical view of popular lefty podcaster and influencer Hasan Piker, the anti-capitalist domestic terrorism attack the media is barely covering, and Joy Behar's cluelessness about Christianity. First, they dissect Sen. Gallego’s lengthy comments about Swalwell, once described as a close ally, now dismissed as someone living a “double life.” Gallego insists he had no knowledge of the behavior while accusing Republicans of trying to link him to the scandal. Jim and Greg question how such conduct could go unnoticed given Capitol Hill chatter and explain why Gallego is scrambling to politically inoculate himself from the fallout. First, they go through the extensive comments of Sen. Gallego, who was Swalwell's best friend and now Gallego says he had no idea about Swalwell's "double life." He also accuses Republicans of trying to tie him to the scandal. Jim and Greg explain why Gallego pleading ignorance does not pass the smell test. And they explain why Gallego needs to inoculate himself from the Swalwell scandal as quickly as possible. Next, they react to lefty podcaster Hasan Piker doubling down on his claim that Israel is a thousand times worse than Hamas. Piker is a prominent voice on the left and some candidates have asked him to campaign with them. You'll also learn who Piker sees as the biggest terrorist organization in the world. Then, Jim and Greg highlight the domestic terrorism incident where an employee burned down a Kimberly Clark Corp. warehouse in Ontario, California. The suspect was allegedly inspired by Luigi Mangione, who murdered a health insurance executive in New York City, and claimed that his arson was a protest against capitalism. Finally, they sigh as Joy Behar claims Jesus Christ never claimed to be the Messiah. Even the other lefties on The View corrected her. Greg explains why she's wrong and Jim reveals why this kind of ignorance is so common on that show.

    Eric Swalwell Scandal Erupts, Dems Push Him Out of Race

    Join Jim and Greg for the Monday 3 Martini Lunch as they break down the explosive scandal engulfing California Rep. Eric Swalwell and its impact on the governor’s race, escalating tensions after failed U.S.-Iran negotiations, and the growing controversy surrounding a Democratic Senate candidate’s disturbing past. First, parental discretion is advised, as Jim and Greg dig into the details and fallout of four different women accusing Rep. Swalwell of sexual misconduct ranging from rape to sending and requesting explicit photos. Multiple lawmakers and reporters say none of this comes as a surprise about Swalwell. So why did the Democrats decide to kick Swalwell to the curb noe when they've known about him for years? Next, they react to the U.S. and Iran failing to reach a deal to end their six-week war through negotiations in Pakistan over the weekend. In response, President Trump is blockading the Strait of Hormuz and key Iranian ports. What does this mean for the war and your wallet/ Then, they react to Maine Democratic Senate candidate Graham Platner blaming his Nazi Totenkopf tattoo and past inflammatory comments about rape on what he calls a hyper-masculine military culture. But he says he has much different views now. Jim and Greg are not buying it at all. Finally, Democrats forced Swalwell out of the California governor's race, but they're somehow conflicted about whether he should stay in Congress. Jim and Greg predict whether he will be forced out or allowed to finish his term.

    Injustice in Charlotte? Newsom's Odd Parenting, Amazing Iran Rescue | Last Call

    Welcome to Last Call, a look at the biggest stories Jim and Greg covered over the past week on the 3 Martini Lunch. This week, Jim and Greg break down how the Charlotte train murderer may escape true justice, the eyebrow-raising parenting confessions from Jennifer Siebel Newsom, wife of California Gov. Gavin Newsom, and the jaw-dropping success of the U.S. military in rescuing two Americans shot down over Iran. First, they vent after DeCarlos Brown, who stabbed Iryna Zarutska to death on train in Charlotte, is deemed incompetent to stand trial in a mental health evaluation. Jim and Greg explain how it's thoroughly implausible for this diagnosis to suddenly emerge now and how this would be a major miscarriage of justice if the court agrees. Next, they dive into comments from California "First Partner" Jennifer Siebel Newsom, who revealed some extreme parenting tactics to fight the patriarchy. Jim and Greg reveal what they think of her advice and what impact this could have on Gavin Newsom's presidential ambitions. Then, they marvel at the U.S. military’s unwavering commitment to leaving no man behind and highlight the remarkable coordination between armed forces and the intelligence community to extract the American flight crew before Iranian forces could capture them.  Finally, in this week's chaser, they can only laugh as MSNOW's Lawrence O'Donnell launches the most ridiculous attack possible in connection with the amazing rescue mission conducted in Iran last weekend.

    GOP to Keep Medicaid Funding for Abortions as they Hit Record Highs

    Join Jim and Greg for the Friday 3 Martini Lunch as they react to Vice President Vance clarifying the terms of the negotiations with Iran, congressional Republicans likely allowing Medicaid dollars to fund abortions as the number of abortions hit record highs, and Senate Democrat Leader Chuck Schumer more and more open to supporting the candidate who had the Nazi tattoo. First, they react to Vice President JD Vance clarifying the terms of negotiations with Iran, explaining that Donald Trump agreed to a different 10-point framework proposed by Iranian officials, not the widely circulated list of extreme demands seen in media and social media. So what's in the other plan? Next, they express deep concern over Planned Parenthood reporting a record 434,450 abortions in Fiscal Year 2024–2025. They're also frustrated by reports that House Speaker Mike Johnson does not plan to include a ban on Medicaid funding for abortions in the upcoming reconciliation bill. Then, they watch the dysfunction on the Democrats' side of the aisle as Sen. Schumer says he will fully support far left Maine U.S. Senate candidate Graham Platner if Platner defeats Schumer's preferred candidate, Gov. Janet Mills, in the primary. Platner is the one who had a Totenkopf tattoo until very recently. Jim also notes the financial woes still afflicting the Democratic National Committee. Finally, parents in Fairfax County, Virginia, are getting frustrated that a majority of weeks during the school year do not have five full days of instruction. Fairfax County parent Jim Geraghty weighs in on the controversy.

    Zarutska Killer Found Not Competent to Stand Trial

    Join Jim and Greg for the Thursday 3 Martini Lunch as they break down how the Charlotte train murderer may escape true justice, the Justice Department’s crackdown on a military leaker, and why Virginia Gov. Abigail Spanberger is already facing sinking approval numbers. Plus, MSNOW's Lawrence O'Donnell delivers a head-scratching reaction to the Iran rescue mission. First, they vent after DeCarlos Brown, who stabbed Iryna Zarutska to death on a Charlotte, North Carolina, is deemed incompetent to stand trial in a mental health evaluation. Jim and Greg explain how it's thoroughly implausible for this diagnosis to suddenly emerge now and how this would be a major miscarriage of justice if the court agrees.

Bragg, North Carolina, over the alleged leak of “top secret” classified intelligence tied to a highly sensitive military unit. Then, they help Virginia Gov. Abigail Spanberger understand the reasons why her political honeymoon is over and why her approval numbers are already south of 50 percent.

    Trump Agrees to Ceasefire, But Can Iran Be Trusted?

    Join Jim and Greg for the Wednesday 3 Martini Lunch as they break down President Trump’s agreement to a two-week ceasefire with Iran, the political implications of a Republican victory in a key Georgia U.S. House special election, a decisive liberal win on the Wisconsin Supreme Court, and the ongoing success of the Artemis II mission. First, they take a deep dive into what we know so far about the temporary U.S.-Iran ceasefire, examining whether the deal advances American interests. Jim zeroes in on shipping through the Strait of Hormuz, Iran's absurd conditions to negotiate, and what national security goals must be achieved before agreeing to anything long term. Next, they react to Republican Clay Fuller’s win in the Georgia special election to replace Marjorie Taylor Greene in Congress. Fuller won by nearly 12 points, but since Trump won the district by 37 points in 2024, how much should the narrower results cocern the GOP heading into the midterms? Then, they wince at the results in Wisconsin, where the Democrat-endorsed judicial candidate cruises to a commanding victory in the state Supreme Court race, further tilting the court’s ideological balance. Finally, they marvel at the accomplishments of Artemis II as it now returns to Earth.
