Join Jim and Greg as they serve up three good martinis related to the U.S. Senate. First, they welcome the pursuit of justice in what appears to be a lot of evidence against New Jersey Sen. Bob Menendez and his wife on bribery and other accusations. They're also glad to see Pennsylvania Republicans seemingly uniting around David McCormick in the tough fight to unseat incumbent Sen. Bob Casey, Jr. next year. Finally, they're pleased...

Join Jim and Greg as they welcome Democrats like New York Gov. Kathy Hochul acknowledging that cities and states cannot just accept an unlimited number of illegal immigrants - the same position Republicans were savaged for just a few years ago. They also wince as Republicans lose two very winnable seats in key state legislative races, but they hope other Republicans around the nation learn some important lessons from these defeats....

Join Jim and Greg as they're glad to hear that the debris of the missing U.S. Marine Corps F-35 stealth fighter jet have been found, but they're a bit curious about another order from the Corps.

Join Jim and Greg as they consider the unintended consequences of Hunter Biden's suit against the IRS, alleging the whistleblowers on his case violated his privacy. He seems to be grasping for straws but could he actually end up strengthening protections for the rest of us against the IRS? They're also disgusted as Iran follows up last week's embarrassing Biden administration concessions by kicking a bunch of United Nations weapons...

Join Jim and Greg as they react to Special Counsel David Weiss announcing three felony indictments against Hunter Biden on gun crimes. What will happen next? They also keep a close eye on United Auto Workers members walking off the job against General Motors, Ford, and Stellantis (formerly Fiat-Chrysler).

Join Jim and Greg as they welcome Utah Sen. Mitt Romney recognizing that if your next term will take you into your mid-80s that it's time to retire. They also look at the good and the bad of Romney's time in the Senate and remember key moments and factors in his 2012 presidential loss to Barack Obama. They also shudder as inflation rises more than expected in August and how the average American family is getting pummeled by the cos...

Join Jim and Greg as they welcome the news that New Mexico Attorney General Raul Torrez, a Democrat, is refusing to defend Gov. Michelle Lujan-Grisham's unconstitutional "health emergency" that forbids carrying guns in public for 30 days. They also react to House Speaker Kevin McCarthy calling for the launch of a formal impeachment inquiry against President Biden. They explain how the effort is warranted given the growing evidence ...

Join Jim and Greg for three more powerful martinis today. After chronicling Jim's emotional roller coaster of watching his Jets lose Aaron Rodgers within four snaps and still find a way to win the game, they cheer Bernalillo County New Mexico Sheriff John Allen for calmly explaining that he will not follow Gov. Lujan-Grisham's emergency order removing open and concealed carry rights because it is unconstitutional, does not help pub...

Join Jim and Greg as they reflect upon 22 years since the horrific 9/11 attacks that significantly changed our nation in so many ways. They then tackle the first frustrating piece of news - that military prosecutors are seriously considering removing the death penalty as a possibility for 9/11 mastermind Khalid Sheikh Mohammed and his co-conspirators held at Guantanamo Bay. Jim then launches a legendary scolding of New Mexico Gov. ...

Join Jim and Greg as they applaud Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis for verbally smacking down a reporter claiming DeSantis policies are responsible for the recent racially motivated murders in Jacksonville. They also roll their eyes as the Biden administration considers forcing illegal immigrant families to "remain in Texas" now that Democrats running sanctuary cities and states are begging for the influx of migrants to stop in their comm...

Join Jim and Greg as they marvel at President Biden's dismal poll numbers, including 58 percent of Americans saying the economy is worse under his leadership and 67 percent of Democrats wanting someone other than Biden as the party's nominee next year. But Democrats also have no idea whom they would want to replace Biden. They also react to Special Counsel David Weiss announcing that there will likely be an indictment against Hunte...

Join Jim and Greg as they welcome former Michigan Rep. Mike Rogers to the Senate race to replace Sen. Debbie Stabenow. But they also note why this race is an uphill climb for any Republican. They also groan as the talk of COVID cases and restrictions ramps up again - including mask mandates at elementary schools. Finally, they slam and laugh at a leading bioethicist from New York University calling for genetically modifying people ...

Join Jim and Greg as they credit Texas Gov. Greg Abbott and Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis for making sanctuary cities and states understand a fraction of the stress that a flood of illegal immigration creates on our nation. But are the right lessons being learned? They also keep an eye on reports that Vladimir Putin and North Korean Dictator Kim Jong-Un may soon meet, allegedly as part of Putin's effort to use North Korean weapons agai...

Last week, Jim returned to the U.S. after spending nearly two weeks in Ukraine and learning the depths of what the Ukrainian people have endured and how they remain determined to win the war against Russia.
In this Labor Day special, Jim chronicles the personal warmth and steely national resolve of the Ukrainian people, who have suffered immensely but face the future with hope. He also goes into detail about the repulsive war crimes...

Join Jim and Greg as they cautiously welcome news of Ukrainian progress against Russians at a key spot along the war front. They also groan as the number of families with children apprehended at the border surged in August - yet another sign that the Biden administration's policies are nothing but a giant magnet for people to come to the U.S. illegally. Finally, they unload on California for thoroughly implausible new regulations b...

Jim Geraghty is back! Today, Jim and Greg spend the good martini giving a short overview of Jim's trip to Ukraine and what he learned there. Don't miss Monday's 3 Martini Lunch, when they devote their Labor Day episode to the good, bad, and crazy things that Jim observed in Ukraine.

Ricochet.com Editor-in-Chief Jon Gabriel is in for Jim, who will return on Thursday. Today, Jon and Greg applaud the competence and preparedness of Gov. DeSantis in Florida as Hurricane Idalia comes ashore.

Ricochet Editor-in-Chief Jon Gabriel is in for Jim. Today, Jon and Greg follow up on a recent martini and welcome even more evidence that Oregon voters are ready to reverse the 2020 referendum that gave people possessing hard drugs like heroin and fentanyl a small fine instead of jail time. A new poll shows a strong majority of Oregon voters ready for a full repeal or significant changes to the law. They also cringe at the state of...

Ricochet Editor-in-Chief Jon Gabriel is in for Jim. Today, Jon and Greg examine new polls showing more than three-quarters of Americans and nearly 70 percent of Democrats think Joe Biden is too old to be president for another four years. So do the Dems roll the dice on Biden anyway and hope Trump is even less popular? Do they push Biden out ad gamble on Kamala Harris? Or do they find someone else entirely? They also groan as the Bi...
