NYT Poll Has Dems Trying to Shove Biden, Obama Says We're All 'Complicit' in Middle East Mess, Rep. Tlaib's 'River to the Sea' Gaslighting
Join Jim and Greg as they respond to a new New York Times/Siena College showing Donald Trump leading President Biden in five of six swing states, and the calls from Democrats for Biden not to run next year are growing louder. But will he? Who would replace him? And this poll most damaging to Republican presidential candidates claiming that Donald Trump is unelectable?They also slam former President Barack Obama for suggesting "all of us are complicit" for the ongoing mess in the Middle East. Jim outlines many of Obama's failed approach to the Middle East that coddled Iran and put far more pressure on Israel than the people who don't want Israel to exist.Finally, they shred Michigan Rep. Rashida Tlaib for trying to claim that the chant "From the river to the sea, Palestine will be free" is about "peaceful coexistence" and not a call for violence and genocide.Please visit our great sponsors:4Patriothttps://4Patriots.com/martiniCatch the deal of the day before it is gone!

Jim in Taiwan: Strong Defenses, The Chinese Threat, Earthquakes & Innovation
Jim spent more than a week in Taiwan, getting first-hand briefing and answers to key questions about how our ally is bracing for a possible Chinese invasion. Today, Jim briefs us on what he learned - the good the bad and the crazy.First, Jim explains the significant advantages Taiwan has in the event of Chinese aggression. From the physical characteristics of the island to the massive urban setting and even jungle conditions in other areas, China would face a hostile environment in addition to a hostile population.Then Jim details the sobering assessment that China will likely attack within the next several years. He also shares how Taiwan's lack of formal independence gives it a second-class status in several important ways - from the United Nations to being ignored by Interpol and the World Health Organization.Finally, Jim reveals some of the intense and amusing sidelights, from being caught in an earthquake to the quirks of other journalists on the trip to his overt jealousy of the superior engineering of Taiwanese toilets.Please visit our great sponsors:4Patriothttps://4Patriots.com/martiniCatch the deal of the day before it is gone!

Virginia's Terrorism Probe, Hamas Traps 600 Americans, Abortion & the Elections
Join Jim and Greg as they welcome Virginia's investigation of a domestic Islamic organization over possible ties to terrorist organizations. They urge a full and honest probe but Jim also explains why he's not fretting over the public relations impact on the group in the meantime.They also fume over the ongoing dearth of coverage of the approximately 10 American hostages still held by Hamas nearly a month after the attack. And now we also learn that Hamas refuses to let some 600 American residents leave Gaza without major concessions. Why are media outlets so quiet about these Americans being held against their will?Finally, they look ahead to next week's off-year elections in several states and wonder whether Democrats can win by talking almost exclusively about abortion and when Republicans will start defending their positions more effectively.Please visit our great sponsors:4Patriothttps://4Patriots.com/martiniCatch the deal of the day before it is gone!After Deathhttps://angel.com/threemartinilunchNow in theaters.

Fetterman's Curious Encounter, FBI's Terrorism Warning, Politico Dissects DeSantis' Boots
Join Jim and Greg as they react to an odd encounter Pennsylvania Sen. John Fetterman had with one of his voters - a voter who was shoved outside by a staffer after demanding an answer about a Middle East ceasefire. They also wince as FBI Director Christopher Wray warns of Hamas-inspired terrorist attacks against Americans - similar to the ISIS-inspired attacks from several years ago. And Jim breaks down how anti-Semites convince themselves that the demonization of Jews justifies any horrible deed in their minds.Finally, they hammer Politico for running a ridiculous story investigating whether Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis likely places lifts into his boots to appear slightly taller. And Jim explains how this type of "journalism" has made our country and our politics dumber.Please visit our great sponsors:4Patriothttps://4Patriots.com/martiniCatch the deal of the day before it is gone!

Pence Ends 2024 Bid, Russian Airport Mob Targets Jews, Rep. Phillips Challenges Biden
Jim Geraghty is a bit weary but he's back from Taiwan! Join Jim and Greg as they discuss former Vice President Mike Pence announcing that he is suspending his presidential campaign and former President Trump saying he expects a Pence endorsement.They also shudder as a predominantly-Muslim mob of Russians in Dagestan swarm an airport trying to get their hands on Jewish people. Jim says that last week we witnessed "the American intifada" on U.S. college campuses and it's obvious there are plenty of others around the world who feel the same hatred.Finally, they serve up a double crazy martini over Rep. Dean Phillips challenging President Biden for the Democratic presidential nomination. It's crazy because very few Americans know who Phillips is but the reaction on the left that this new campaign is a threat to democracy is also insane.Please visit our great sponsors:4Patriothttps://4Patriots.com/martiniCatch the deal of the day before it is gone!

U.S. Strikes Back at Iran, FBI/DOJ Burying Evidence on Biden? Bowman's Sweetheart Deal
Former Chief Assistant U.S. Attorney and National Review Contributing Editor Andy McCarthy is in for Jim, who will be back on Monday. Today, Andy and Greg cheer the U.S. strikes against Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps sites in Syria following multiple drone attacks against U.S. forces in the region last week. But Andy is very concerned that the Biden administration refuses to get tough with Iran, who is clearly collaborating with Hamas, Russia, and the Chinese. Andy also breaks down the open letter from Sen. Chuck Grassley alleging that dozens of whistleblowers have told him the FBI and Justice Department are refusing to follow up on key evidence of the Biden family corruption and are actively trying to bury it all.Finally, Andy walks us through the incredibly generous deal offered to New York Rep. Jamal Bowman for intentionally pulling a fire alarm to delay a House vote late last month. New video proves Bowman's story to date is false. Andy explains why Bowman should have been charged with disrupting a congressional proceeding and why this sweetheart deal of a $1,000 fine and the charge not staying on his record permanently was done.Please visit our great sponsors:4Patriothttps://4Patriots.com/martiniCatch the deal of the day before it is gone!

Parents Love School Vouchers, Anti-Semitism Gets Worse on Campus, Our Ticking Debt Bomb
Hillsdale College Radio General Manager and Radio Free Hillsdale Hour Host Scot Bertram is in for Jim. Today, Scot and Greg open with a somber update on the horrific mass shootings in Maine last night and noting that we finally have a new Speaker of the House.Then they serve up their martinis, starting with the unsurprising revelations that parents in states with new school choice laws are loving the freedom to choose the right schools for their kids and use their own tax dollars to pay for it through vouchers. And of course the left is furious,They also chronicle the onslaught of anti-Semitism that is only intensifying on many college campuses - from students at the University of Washington calling for the end of Israel and Zionists to a Northwetern University professor cheering on and accommodating demonstrators who cut class to the terrifying scene at Cooper Union in New York City, where Jewish students had to be locked in the library to protect them from a pro-Hamas protest that was banging on the doors and screaming at them.Finally, they fume over the thoroughly predictable debt catastrophe that is already bad and about to get MUCH worse. And both parties are to blame.Please visit our great sponsors:4Patriothttps://4Patriots.com/martiniCatch the deal of the day before it is gone!

NY Voters & the Migrant Crisis, U.S. Military Attacked in Middle East, AP & VOA Won't Call Hamas Terrorists
Hillsdale College Radio General Manager and Radio Free Hillsdale Hour Host Scot Bertram is in for Jim. Today, Scot and Greg muse over the latest twists and turns in the House Speaker race as Louisiana Rep. Mike Johnson seems to be in position to get elected by his fellow Republicans today. Then it's on to the martinis! First, they welcome a strong majority of New York voters agreeing with NYC Mayor Eric Adams that the illegal migrant crisis is going to destroy the city. And they overwhelmingly disapprove of how the Biden administration is handling the issue. They also recoil at the news Iranian proxies have launched drone attacks at U.S. positions in Syria and Iraq, injuring two dozen U.S. personnel. And they're also mad that the government kept this information from the public for a week. Finally, they scold the Associated Press and taxpayer-funded Voice of America for telling their reporters not to refer to Hamas as terrorists.Please visit our great sponsors:4Patriothttps://4Patriots.com/martiniCatch the deal of the day before it is gone!

More Speaker Drama, Half of Young Adults Say Hamas Attacks Justified, White House & Anti-Semitism
Inez Stepman of the Independent Women's Forum and host of the "High Noon" podcast is in for Jim. Today, Inez and Greg walk through the latest House Republican drama over another vote for Speaker of the House and another "winner" who probably can't get the job. They also go over multiple polls showing a sharp divide by age over whether the Hamas terrorist attacks against Israel were justified and whether Israel's military response to Hamas is justified. And Inez says the results shuld not shock anyone. Finally, they assess White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre dodging a question about concerns over rising anti-Semitism and focusing instead on concerns over threats to Muslims.Please visit our great sponsors:4Patriothttps://4Patriots.com/martiniFree shipping on orders more than $97New episodes every weekday. 👉 Subscribe to the show so you never miss a moment.Follow us for more daily clips, updates, and commentary:FacebookInstagramYoutubeOther InfoWebsite
