3 Martini Lunch – Political Humor & Commentary

Latest Episodes:

Ana Navarro Uses DC Shooting to Push Familiar Leftist Agenda Apr 28, 2026

Show notes

Join Jim and Greg for the Tuesday 3 Martini Lunch as they react to The View co-host Ana Navarro hoping Republicans were shaken enough by Saturday’s attempted shooting to pass gun control legislation, Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis unveiling a new congressional map that could flip multiple House seats towards the GOP, the growing feud between Jimmy Kimmel and Melania Trump, and Rep. Ilhan Omar clearly needing a history lesson.
First, they describe Navarro’s comments as not only tasteless but remarkably ignorant. They explain why her reaction echoed other unconscionable responses from the left in recent years and argue that additional gun control laws would have done nothing to stop the would-be shooter at the White House Correspondents’ Dinner.
Next, they break down the new Florida congressional map released by Gov. DeSantis. Legal challenges are almost certain. Jim and Greg discuss the endless redistricting wars, why they are not surprised by this move, and how a critical Supreme Court decision on congressional districts expected in the coming weeks plays into all of this.
Then they dive into the controversy over Jimmy Kimmel’s White House Correspondents’ Dinner joke that Melania Trump was “glowing like an expectant widow.” Mrs. Trump wants Kimmel fired, while Kimmel insists it was harmless comedy. Jim and Greg weigh in.
Finally, they have some fun at the expense of Minnesota Rep. Ilhan Omar after her reference to World War 11.

Manifesto Proves Motive for Latest Trump Assassination Attempt Apr 27, 2026

Show notes

Join Jim and Greg for the Monday 3 Martini Lunch as they break down multiple angles of the attempted shooting of President Trump at the White House Correspondents Dinner on Saturday. They discuss their relief that the incident did not turn out far worse, the left’s bizarre insistence that the would-be shooter was not political despite his manifesto, and Trump’s argument that the threat proves the need for a White House ballroom. Plus, some great news for a good friend of the podcast.
First, they breathe a sigh of relief that the attempted shooting of President Trump and other administration officials did not become deadly. Jim explains what the environment is like around White House Correspondents Dinner and the surrounding receptions. They also credit the Secret Service for quickly taking the gunman into custody while examining the serious security concerns exposed by the incident.
Next, they focus on the would-be shooter and his manifesto. Jim and Greg are stunned as Barack Obama and others on the left claim the motive was unknown long after the manifesto had already been released.
Then they react to President Trump suggesting the White House Correspondents Dinner crisis is the clearest example yet of why a White House ballroom is needed. Democratic Sen. John Fetterman agrees. Jim says the ballroom is a good idea overall but explains why it would not be the proper site for this specific event.
Finally, they share a very encouraging health update from columnist and frequent 3 Martini Lunch guest host, Jon Gabriel.

SPLC Indictment, Labor Sec's Resignation, & Carville’s Radical Agenda | Last Call Apr 25, 2026

Show notes

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 they examine the Justice Department indicting the far-left Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC) on multiple fraud charges, the resignation of Labor Secretary Lori Chavez-DeRemer, the left's radical - but likely - agenda whenever they retake Congress and the White House, and the resignation of Florida Democratic Rep. Sheila Cherfilus-McCormick.
First, they focus on the Justice Department’s 11-count fraud indictment against the SPLC. Jim and Greg walk through the formal charges and reveal how the SPLC allegedly spent large sums on “informants” within extremist organizations. They also explain why Democrats and much of the media continue to embrace the SPLC.
Next, they're not at all sorry to see President Trump forcing Sec. Chavez-DeRemer to resign. Jim and Greg explain how she was always far too cozy with big labor and a threat to the freelance economy. They also note the serious ethics problems, both personal and professionsl, that were mounting against her.
Then, fossilized former Clinton campaign adviser James Carville urges Democrats to aggressively seize power whenever they control the White House and both chambers of Congress again. You'll hear what specific ideas Carville and the Democrats are pushing, along with his advice that candidates avoid talking openly about those plans until after Election Day.
Finally, they wave goodbye to Rep. Cherfilus-McCormick, who resigned Tuesday and still faces federal corruption charges.

Betting on the Future When You Know the Future is Easy Money Apr 24, 2026

Show notes

(00:00:00) U.S. Navy Intercepts Iranian Vessel
(00:05:38) A Bailout for Spirit Airlines?
(00:10:27) Betting on the future when you know the future
Craig Collins remains in for Greg Corombus Friday, and Craig and Jim start by noting the U.S. Navy’s success in capturing Iranian-flagged ships trying to run the blockade on Iran’s ports – while noting that the growing size of the “ghost fleet” in the past decade or so is a scandal.
Speaking of ghosts, the Trump administration is attempting to resurrect the bankrupt Spirit Airlines, in a move unpleasantly reminiscent of the federal government’s bailout of General Motors.
In the crazy martini, Craig and Jim have mixed feelings about the special operations soldier who was involved in the capture of Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro who allegedly made more than $400,000 by betting on Maduro’s removal from office. Is this what they mean when they say to bet on yourself?
Finally, a New York Giants fan and a New York Jets fan watch the first round of this year’s NFL Draft and come away… happy!

A Congressman Has Vanished, The Mystery Deepens Apr 23, 2026

Show notes

(00:00:00) Virginia referendum challenged in court
(00:04:22) NJ Congressman MIA
(00:08:24) The politics of gas prices
Craig Collins is in for Greg Corombus, and Craig and Jim start with the good news that a Virginia judge blocked the state from certifying the results of Tuesday's congressional map referendum, deeming the referendum and the bill that triggered it as unconstitutional. (Don’t get too excited, this is just the first step in a multi-step process.)
Then Craig and Jim wonder about the long absence and unspecified health issues of New Jersey Republican congressman Tom Kean Jr., and tell the administration that when it comes to gas prices, it’s better to underpromise and overdeliver than the other way around.
Finally, the two long-suffering fans of New York’s NFL teams contemplate the Giants' and Jets' prospects in tonight’s NFL draft.

SPLC Indicted by DOJ, Shocking Allegations Emerge Apr 22, 2026

Show notes

Join Jim and Greg for the Wednesday edition of the 3 Martini Lunch as they react to Virginia voters approving Democrats’ heavily gerrymandered congressional map, the Justice Department indicting the far-left Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC) on fraud charges, Connecticut Sen. Chris Murphy’s controversial tweet about the Iran war, and the resignation of Florida Democrat Sheila Cherfilus-McCormick from Congress.
First, they wince as Virginia voters approve the Virginia Democrats’ aggressively partisan congressional map. The fight now moves to court and will likely be decided soon. Jim says Tuesday’s narrow margin shows just how unreasonable a 10-1 Democratic advantage would be for Virginia in the U.S. House of Representatives.
Next, they focus on the Justice Department’s 11-count fraud indictment against the SPLC. Jim and Greg walk through the formal charges and reveal how the SPLC allegedly spent large sums on “informants” within extremist organizations. They also explain why Democrats and much of the media continue to embrace the SPLC.
Then they roll their eyes as Connecticut Sen. Chris Murphy draws criticism for calling reports that 26 Iranian vessels got through the U.S. blockade in the Strait of Hormuz “awesome.”
Finally, they wave goodbye to Rep. Cherfilus-McCormick, who resigned Tuesday and still faces federal corruption charges.

Inside Labor Sec. Chavez-DeRemer’s Scandal & Sudden Resignation Apr 21, 2026

Show notes

Join Jim and Greg for the Tuesday 3 Martini Lunch as they break down the resignation of Labor Secretary Lori Chavez-DeRemer, signs of momentum among House Democrats towards expelling Rep. Sheila Cherfilus-McCormick, and the sudden surge of former Health and Human Services Secretary Xavier Becerra in the California governor’s race.
First, they're not at all sorry to see President Trump forcing Sec. Chavez-DeRemer to resign. Jim and Greg explain how she was always far too cozy with big labor and a threat to the freelance economy. They also note the serious ethics problems, both personal and professionsl, that were mounting against her.
Next, House Democrats now seemed more inclined to expel Rep. Sheila Cherfilus-McCormick or at least pressure her to resign over allegations that she stole millions in COVID-era FEMA funds for personal and political benefit. But Democrats were adamantly opposed to punishing her just a few weeks ago. What changed?
Then they are startled to see Sec. Becerra leap to the front of the pack in the California governor’s race, especially since he was barely an afterthought for most of the campaign until Eric Swalwell was forced to withdraw.
Finally, they take a quick look at the Los Angeles mayoral race, where Karen Bass appears on track for re-election. But as leading challenger and former reality television star Spencer Pratt alleges the Chinese are aggressively buying up lots after the Palisades and other fires, Jim and Greg wonder whether Pratt’s celebrity will help or hurt his campaign.

The Democrats' Insane Agenda If They Retake Power Apr 20, 2026

Show notes

Join Jim and Greg for the Monday 3 Martini Lunch as they break down historically low violent crime rates in Washington, D.C., new evidence on the brain damage linked to regular marijuana use, the left's radical - but likely - agenda whenever they retake Congress and the White House, and Zohran Mamdani's curse on the New York Mets.
First, they welcome statistics showing Washington, D.C, on track for the lowest number of murders since 1930 plus a major drop in carjackings. Hopefully, the trend continues. If it does, there are specific, common sense policy changes that are obviously making a big difference.
Next, as pot smokers celebrate 4/20, Jim and Greg examine both recent and longstanding research suggesting regular weed use can damage the brain and lead to other health problems. Jim and Greg discuss how neither party is interested in pushing back against pro-weed policy anymore, even as evidence like this grows. Plus, Jim offers some classic commentary on having to smell weed all the time in America's cities.
Then, fossilized former Clinton campaign adviser James Carville urges Democrats to aggressively seize power whenever they control the White House and both chambers of Congress again. You'll hear what specific ideas Carville and the Democrats are pushing, along with his advice that candidates avoid talking openly about those plans until after Election Day.
Finally, they have some fun with the news that the New York Mets are 0-11 since their mascots, Mr. and Mrs. Met, hugged New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani. But Jim knows that Mamdani, like most Marxists, has a plan to salvage the season.

Swalwell Resigns, Dems' Hasan Piker Problem, TDS at the NY Times | Last Call Apr 18, 2026

Show notes

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 two high-profile congressional resignations, the radical views of popular lefty podcaster and influencer Hasan Piker, New York Times columnist Tom Friedman’s baffling stance on the Iran war, and some badly needed judicial wisdom from Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas.
First, they welcome the resignations of Caiifornia Rep. Eric Swalwell and Texas Rep. Tony Gonzales. Swalwell is the Democrat who was running for governor until sexual assault and other allegations forced him out of the race. Gonzales, a Republican who is married, had an affair with a married staffer who later committed suicide by self-immolation. They react to the resignations and what's left of the Democrats running for governor in Caiifornia.
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 they throw up their hands as longtime New York Times columnist Tom Friedman says he's conflicted over who he wants to win the Iran war. We'll explain the absurd reasons for his conundrum and just how deranged that thinking is.
Finally, after all of that bad news, Greg and Thursday guest host and former Virginia Attorney General Ken Cuccinelli close with some refreshing wisdom from Justice Thomas about the proper role of judges.

The Surge of the Anti-Israel Democrats Apr 17, 2026

Show notes

Christopher J. Scalia of the American Enterprise Institute is in for Jim Geraghty on the Friday 3 Martini Lunch. Today, Chris and Greg discuss allegations that the media could have reported on the Swalwell scandal as early as 2019, the "Michigan Mamdani: surging in the Michigan U.S. Senate race, and signs that Yale University may finally realize it lost its way.
First, Chris and Greg react to a longtime Democratic activist claiming Politico was preparing a 2019 report on Eric Swalwell’s alleged sexual misconduct while he was running for president. But after Swalwell dropped out of the race, the story was never published, even though he remained in Congress.
Next, they shudder as hostility towards Israel is now clearly the popular and safest position among Democrats. Abdul El-Sayed, dubbed the Michigan Mamdani, is now tied for the lead in the Michigan Democratic U.S. Senate primary. They also note that every Democratic senator rumored to be considering a presidential run just voted against military aid to Israel.
Then, Chris welcomes a new report from a special Yale University commission outlining where the school has gone wrong on admissions, academics, free speech, soaring tuition costs and more. They hope it marks the beginning of a return to sanity in higher education, but will actions follow the words?
Finally, Chris observes another small but important return to normalcy: some familiar-looking uniforms for the team formerly known as the Washington Redskins.
