Continuing their long Thanksgiving tradition, Jim and Greg unveil their lists of things they are politically thankful for, although this year they don't stick as close to politics as they have in past years. Jim reflects on last week's Pro-Israel march in Washington and the stark contrast to the hateful and often violent demonstrations we've seen from the left for many years. Greg explains why he's thankful for Virginia Gov. Glenn Youngkin despite a disappointing year for Republicans in the comm...

Join Jim and Greg as they appreciate new research from Trinity University in Ireland and The Ohio State University showing that the climate alarmists are way off and that increased carbon dioxide is absorbed by trees and others plants and makes them stronger - just like we learned in basic biology class. They also wince as the Biden administration continues to tread very lightly with Iran despite more than four dozen attacks on U.S. positions in the Middle East by Iran proxy groups and the hijac...

Join Jim and Greg as they serve up three critical martinis after opening with thoughts on the passing of former First Lady Rosalynn Carter, who died Sunday at age 96. Then they react to libertarian Javier Milei's dominant win in Argentina's presidential race amid a massive economic crisis there. They also note Milei's unconventional approach to politics and the media's reflexive opposition to him. They also chronicle a Fox News poll showing showing voters trust Republicans to deal with issues ra...

Join Jim and Greg as they serve up two good martinis and a bad one to wrap up the week. First, they welcome Major League Baseball quietly announcing the 2025 All-Star Game will be in Atlanta, never mentioning that it removed the game from Atlanta in 2021 under the absurd pretext that Georgia's new voting laws were racist and constituted voter suppression. They're also glad to report that were some positive results in last week's Virginia elections, including a final reckoning for the Loudoun Cou...

Join Jim and Greg as they digest the scathing House Ethics Committee report concluding that New York Rep. George Santos likely committed multiple federal offenses in allegedly defrauding his own constituents and others for his personal gain. In addition, they're pleased to hear Santos will not run for re-election, meaning this bizarre episode will be over - at least politically - in just about a year. They also break down the unrest Wednesday night as pro-Palestinian protesters clashed with poli...

Join Jim and Greg as they celebrate the huge, peaceful, civilized rally in support of Israel on Tuesday, an event which brought a very welcome contrast to the violent, hateful demonstrations seen on campus and beyond against Israel and even supportive of Hamas. They also wince at reports that President Biden is planning to sign a deal with Chinese dictator Xi Xinping to limit the use of artificial intelligence in nuclear weapons systems and drones because China won't honor anything it signs if i...
Nov 15, 2023•21 min•Ep. 3279
Join Jim and Greg as they welcome the detailed reporting from CNN's Nic Robertson, as Israeli Defense Forces explained to him on camera how Hamas was using a hospital in Gaza as an armory and military command post - a strategy that unnecessarily put many civilians in harm's way. They also sigh as House Republicans still cannot seem to agree on much - the latest evidence being the failure to impeach Homeland Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas, who so richly deserves to get the boot. There's also the fi...

Join Jim and Greg as they applaud South Carolina Sen. Tim Scott for his presidential campaign but also for recognizing that it's not going to happen for him in 2024 and suspending his White House bid. They also throw up their hands as Politico confirms that President Biden is incapable of governing and campaigning like a normal president. But instead of arguing he should retire, the piece suggests strategies for the Biden campaign to cover up the president's liabilities and bring in veteran camp...

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 break down West Virginia Sen. Joe Manchin announcing he will not run for the U.S. Senate again in 2024 and will instead travel the nation "to see if there is interest in creating a movement to mobilize the middle." Andy and Greg assess the impact another third-party candidate might have on the outcome next year. They also dig into the Nashvill...

Hillsdale College Radio General Manager and Radio Free Hillsdale Hour Host Scot Bertram is in for Jim. Today, Scot and Greg dissect a poll showing President Biden with a 52 disapproval rate in deep blue California. Republicans have virtually no chance to win the state but there is clearly widespread dissatisfaction in Biden's performance. They also recoil at the news Associated Press and Reuters photojournalists were embedded with Hamas during their ghastly slaughter of Israelis on October 7. So...

Join Jim and Greg as they welcome the House of Representatives delivering a bipartisan censure to Michigan Rep, Rashida Tlaib for her brazen lies about the Gaza hospital bombing and her overt gaslighting about the true meaning of "From the river to the sea, Palestine will be free." They also sigh as they track disappointing election results in Kentucky, Virginia, and Ohio. They also offer reasons for the GOP's losses, where the politics go next on abortion, and much more. Plus, they try to find ...

Join Jim and Greg as they set the stage for today's off-year elections that will have big consequences in states like Virginia, Kentucky, Louisiana, Mississippi, New Jersey and more. Then they kick off the martinis with a focus on Iowa Gov. Kim Reynolds endorsing Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis for president. How much does her endorsement matter and will we actually get a competitive primary? They also shudder at the news that our annual interest payments on the national debt are now more than $1 tril...
Nov 07, 2023•23 min•Ep. 3273
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. Ji...

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 ...

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 reside...

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 dee...

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 ...

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 l...

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 ...

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 d...

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 a...

Hillsdale College Radio General Manager and Radio Free Hillsdale Hour Host Scot Bertram is in for Jim. Before today's martinis, Scot and Greg mull over the latest round of Speaker of the House roulette on the GOP side and whether any of the nine new candidates can get to 217 votes. Then they throw up their hands as the New York Times rehires a photojournalist is suspended just last year for blatantly pro-Hitler social media posts. His assignment now? Cover the Israel-Hamas war of course. They al...

Ricochet.com Editor-in-Chief Jon Gabriel is in for Jim. Today, Jon and Greg express their frustrations over the GOP's intraparty food fight that has no obvious end in sight. Although they are pleased that the Republicans can at least agree for now not to make any deals with Democrats. They also cringe as a top Biden national security official says he is confident that Hamas will not interfere with $100 million of U.S. aid to the Palestinian people because they "have an understanding." And they r...

Join Jim and Greg as they serve up three lousy martinis. First, they shudder as 30-year mortgage interest rates hit eight percent, meaning monthly payments on a $400,000 home are now $1,000 more expensive per month than they were just two years ago. They also hammer Health and Human Services Sec. Xavier Becerra for pushing for a "universal system of public health" even though he admits the Constitution doesn't allow it. He thinks it's bad that different states could set different policies during...

Join Jim and Greg as they credit Israeli Defense Forces and other officials for quickly proving it was not responsible for the missile strike near a hospital in Gaza on Tuesday and disproving the Hamas statement claiming an Israeli strike killed more than 500 people. They also unload on American media outlets like the Associated Press, CNN, and others for taking the Hamas lies at face value and reporting them as fact without any confirmation whatsoever. Finally, President Biden promises $100 mil...

Join Jim and Greg as they discuss today's planned vote for Speaker of the House as Ohio Rep. Jim Jordan seems very close to having the votes to win - but he might not quite be there yet. Will it be resolved today? They're also puzzled by the surprisingly little coverage of the hundreds of hostages taken by Hamas - some of them American. Normally, the media would have wall-to-wall coverage of something like that. Finally, they react to President Biden's comments over the weekend about no one need...

Join Jim and Greg as they cheer Jeff Landry's big win in the Louisiana governor's race, dominating the open primary so much that he avoided a runoff. They also applaud Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis for organizing a way to bring hundreds of Florida residents home from Israel, including more than 90 children. Finally, they shake their heads as President Biden tells 60 Minutes that he's running for re-election because he's confident that he's really close to achieving Middle East peace. Please visit ou...

Join Jim and Greg as they welcome the news that the U.S. is refreezing the six billion dollars is freed up for Iran as part of the hostage swap announced on 9/11. Will it stay frozen? They also discuss the Hamas leader declaring today a "Day of Rage" against Israel and how he is clearly looking to foment violence and bloodshed. Finally, they react to new charges against New Jersey Sen. Bob Menendez, who is now accused of conspiracy to act as a foreign agent for the Egyptian government. Oh, and t...

Join Jim and Greg as they serve up a couple of mixed martinis and a crazy one. First, they applaud decorated veteran and Florida Rep. Cory Mills for going to Israel to rescue Americans trapped in the fighting there - but they're frustrated (and so is Mills) that private citizens once again need to do the Biden administration's job to bring Americans home. They also welcome a new Fox News poll showing 71 percent of Americans - including 82 percent of independents - think we need stronger border s...
