13 AUG 2026 · Join Jim and Greg for the Thursday 3 Martini Lunch as they discuss how the U.S. Secret Service smuggled President Trump out of Turkey on a different plane without the media or his staff knowing, Texas Republicans getting very worried about Ken Paxton losing the U.S. Senate race, Abdul El-Sayed becoming the latest Democrat to hate Thanksgiving, and the cautionary tale of former rising political star Andrew Gillum.
First, they dive into how the Secret Service used covert moves to get President Trump onto a different plane when he was leaving Turkey last month due to the threat of an Iranian attack. Some in the media are crying foul because they or their colleagues were left on the original plane. Jim and Greg walk through what criticism is fair and what is not.
Next, they get nauseous as Republicans in Texas openly worry that Ken Paxton is on track to lose his U.S. Senate race against James Talarico. GOP operatives tell Mark Halperin that Paxton is being lazy in his campaigning and evasive in addressing his many scandals. But this is Texas. Against Talarico. Is it really that dire?
Then, they throw up their hands as Abdul El-Sayed becomes the latest Democrat in this cycle to express his hatred for Thanksgiving. It was seven years ago and El-Sayed insists he does not believe that anymore. But it came after his run for governor in 2018. They also react to El-Sayed's comments comparing football to the transatlantic slave trade.
Finally, they detail the latest legal trouble for former Tallahassee, Florida, Mayor Andrew Gillum, who was narrowly defeated by Ron DeSantis in the 2018 governor's race. Since then Gillum has faced numerous drug charges and other revelations. Jim wonders about the impact of being a political star everyone quickly forgets about. Greg says Florida dodged a huge bullet.

12 AUG 2026 · Join Jim and Greg for the Wednesday 3 Martini Lunch as they dig into Tuesday's critical primary results in three states, another blue state enthusiastically embracing abortion up to the moment of birth, Tucker Carlson and Hunter Biden blaming Israel for Hunter's laptop scandal, and another House incumbent losing his primary.
First, they walk through the primary results in Wisconsin, Minnesota, and South Carolina, including how socialist Francesca Hong blew a nearly 30 point lead within just a few days, whether Michele Tafoya can win a U.S. Senate seat in Minnesota, and what Tuesday's South Carolina U.S. Senate primary might tell us about who might win the runoff there.
Next, they shudder as Massachusetts becomes the latest state to legalize abortion for any reason or no reason up to the moment of birth. Greg points out that any third trimester complication can be dealt with by delivering instead of killing the baby. Jim details how drastically the left's position on abortion has changed in recent years.
Then, they groan as Tucker Carlson and Hunter Biden blame Israel for Hunter's laptop fiasco and pushing the story to the media. Jim begs Biden to go away and he also addresses growing concerns that Tucker will start a third party designed to sink Republicans in 2028.
Finally, they note Connecticut Rep. John Larson losing his primary on Tuesday, adding to a much longer list of incumbents fired by their own party's voters in 2026 thna in most cycles.

11 AUG 2026 · Join Jim and Greg for the Tuesday 3 Martini Lunch as they discuss the Trump political team reportedly telling Ohio Republicans to stop trying to force Max Miller out of his re-election bid, the Democratic Socialists of America having no ideas beyond slogans, Mamdani's rent adviser owing more than $108,000 in rent, and critical primaries being held today in three states.
First, they shake their heads as Politico reports Trump's political advisers urged the Ohio GOP to stop pressuring Rep. Miller to drop out and resign from Congress because it won't work. Miller is facing numerous serious abuse allegations and the polls show he is likely to lose in November.
Next, they highlight Democratic Socialists of America (DSA) Co-Chair Megan Romer having no idea how much the DSA would tax the rich, how it would abolish prisons, end borders, or defund the police. Jim is amazed Romer is still doing interviews. Greg argues her evasive answers on taxes aren't much different from regular Democrats.
Then, they get a kick out of news that New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani's rent adviser has not paid her own rent since 2021 and owes more than $108,000 in back rent. Jim and Greg discuss how this case seems to be another example of the left trying to demonize landlords.
Finally, they offer a quick preview and predictions for key primaries today in Wisconsin, Minnesota, and South Carolina.

10 AUG 2026 · Join Jim and Greg for the Monday 3 Martini Lunch as they focus on AOC trying to giggle away the left's repressive and woke lurch since 2020, Abdul El-Sayed refusing to disavow Hasan Piker and dismissing Piker's comment that the U.S. deserved 9/11, Wisconsin Democrats frantically trying to defeat Francesca Hong in tomorrow's primary, and the passing of Dukes of Hazzard actor-turned-Georgia Rep Ben Jones.
First, they fume as New York Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortes laughs and tries to chalk up the left's destructive demonization of police, white people, and anyone who didn't obey every jot and tittle of the Covid rules as some some crazy "Woke 1" phase the party went through. Jim says you can be sure the next level of wokeness will be far worse.
Next, they shake their heads as El-Sayed refuses to distance himself from Hasan Piker and labels Piker's contention that we deserved 9/11 as dumb or out of context. Jim and Greg also consider how much this issue will hurt Piker and why these comments are not the same as most other issues.
Then, they thoroughly enjoy the desperate attempt by Wisconsin Democrats to do whatever they can to stop Francesca Hong from being the party's nominee for governor. Jim suspects it won't work because the Dem electorate is more radical than even a few years ago. Greg says this is a problem of the Dems' own creation.
Finally, they note the passing of former Georgia Rep. Ben Jones, who is best known as Cooter Davenport on The Dukes of Hazzard. Jim and Greg remember his brief time in Congress, his rivalry with Newt Gingrich, and the greatness of The Dukes of Hazzard.

8 AUG 2026 · 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 discuss Wisconsin Dems at each other's throats over the governor's primary, how radical Pete Buttigieg's presidential agenda would be, the University of Michigan refusing to issue grades to first semester freshmen, and a Senate committee holding Dr. Anthony Fauci in contempt of Congress.
First, they focus on Wisconsin, where many Democrats are furious at outgoing Gov. Tony Evers for aggressively trying to manufacture his preferred outcome in the governor's primary. Meanwhile, online posts from 2019 and 2020 are emerging in which the socialist frontrunner, Francesca Hong, wanted to ban Thanksgiving and felt uncomfortable eating around "old white people."
Next, they recoil as Pete Buttigieg tells Politico about his plans for radical change and incremental change if he's elected president in 2028. Jim and Greg detail just how insane Buttigieg's agenda is but point out the media will still call him a moderate because he doesn't yell much.
Then, they roll their eyes as the University of Michigan College of Literature, Science, and the Arts says freshmen will not get letter grades their first semester in order to help "curb the mental health crisis." The policy, which is set to begin in Fall 2027, will apply to all students. Jim and Greg wonder how we got this fragile.
Finally, Sen. Rand Paul and the Senate Governmental Affairs and Oversight Committee voted Thursday to hold Dr. Fauci in contempt of Congress for refusing to answer questions last week. Jim says he understands why this is happening but doubts much will ultimately come from it in the courts. Greg wonders the same but still thinks it's the right move.

7 AUG 2026 · Join Jim and Greg for the Friday 3 Martini Lunch as they break down a disappointing July jobs report, the University of Michigan refusing to issue grades to first semester freshmen, the left's backwards approach to policing and prisons, and Mitch McConnell going home but not back to the U.S. Senate - at least not yet.
First, they wince as the July jobs report shows a loss of 23,000 positions and significant downward revisions for May and June. The economy is still in decent shape overall but job and GDP growth are clearly slowing. What are the solutions?
Next, they roll their eyes as the University of Michigan College of Literature, Science, and the Arts says freshmen will not get letter grades their first semester in order to help "curb the mental health crisis." The policy, which is set to begin in Fall 2027, will apply to all students. Jim and Greg wonder how we got this fragile.
Then, they react to Bernie Sanders wanting a much smaller prison population. Greg suggests the solution for that is for people to commit fewer crimes. Jim walks through arguments like "defund the police" and "abolish prisons," which socialists frequently embrace.
Finally, Kentucky Sen. Mitch McConnell says he is home but not yet ready to return to the U.S. Senate. Is he ever coming back?

6 AUG 2026 · Join Jim and Greg for the Thursday 3 Martini Lunch as they explore how Democrats nominating far-left candidates might help Republicans in November, deepening concerns about how low the U.S. missile arsenal is, one House Republican abandoning his re-election bid amid scandal while another digs in, and a Senate committee holding Dr. Anthony Fauci in contempt of Congress.
First, they react to Democrats nominating far-left and even socialist candidates in states and congressional districts that are far more moderate or even lean to the right. They also get a kick out of some Dems trying to distance themselves from the Democratic Socialists of America (DSA) after winning their primaries.
Next, they discuss a Washington Post report about the ongoing concerns about U.S. stockpiles of missile interceptors and other munitions, as well as reports concerning how President Trump and Sec. Pete Hegseth are dealing with this issue. The White House denies Post reports that heated conversations took place over this issue last weekend at Camp David.
Then, they're glad to see North Carolina GOP Rep. Chuck Edwards give up his re-election bid after the House Ethics Committee recommended he be censured for his conduct towards young female staffers. Meanwhile, Ohio Rep. Max Miller refuses to withdraw despite the abuse allegations against him, and he is now past the deadline to withdraw from the ballot.
Finally, Sen. Rand Paul and the Senate Governmental Affairs and Oversight Committee voted Thursday to hold Dr. Fauci in contempt of Congress for refusing to answer questions last week. Jim says he understands why this is happening but doubts much will ultimately come from it in the courts. Greg wonders the same but still thinks it's the right move.

5 AUG 2026 · Join Jim and Greg for the Wednesday 3 Martini Lunch as they analyze the much closer-then-expected Michigan U.S. Senate primary win for socialist Abdul El-Sayed, how radical Pete Buttigieg's presidential agenda would be, Arizona's Democrat governor picking a Republican running mate, and California Gov. Gavin Newsom ranting about the end of democracy if Democrats don't win in November.
First, they react to the very close win for El-Sayed over Democratic Rep. Haley Stevens in Michigan. The polls predicted a blowout. The narrow win boosts the odds for GOP nominee Mike Rogers, who narrowly lost in 2024. But Greg warns that Republicans have to turn out in huge numbers for Rogers to win.
Next, they recoil as Pete Buttigieg tells Politico about his plans for radical change and incremental change if he's elected president in 2028. Jim and Greg detail just how insane Buttigieg's agenda is but point out the media will still call him a moderate because he doesn't yell much.
Then, they discuss Arizona Gov. Katie Hobbs picking an anti-Trump Republican as her running mate. Jim explains why this is a sign of weakness for Hobbs. Jim and Greg also discuss whether Republicans will have an edge in border states like Texas and Arizona because people remember how bad illegal immigration was just a couple of years ago.
Finally, they tell Gov. Newsom to calm down after he claimed Republicans killed the Constitution and democracy will die if his party does not win in November.

4 AUG 2026 · Join Jim and Greg for the Tuesday 3 Martini Lunch as they consider the significant fallout if Abdul El-Sayed wins the Michigan U.S. Senate primary today, growing concerns that the number of U.S. missile interceptors are dwindling, Massachusetts Rep. Seth Moulton caving on trans issues to keep his Senate hopes alive, and James Carville's criticism of far-left streamer Hasan Piker.
First, Jim and Greg examine today's Michigan Democratic U.S. Senate primary, where DSA-backed Abdul El-Sayed is now expected to defeat Rep. Haley Stevens. They explain why an El-Sayed victory could improve Republican Mike Rogers' chances in November, while also exploring the major political consequences if El-Sayed ultimately wins the Senate seat.
Next, they discuss a new study warning that the U.S. supply of missile interceptors is shrinking and could take years to replenish. With Iran constantly shifting from diplomacy to missile strikes and back, how long can the U.S. stay on its current course?
Then, they slam Rep. Moulton for his groveling on trans issues. After the Republican wins in 2024, Moulton said he did not want his daughters getting run over by male or formerly male athletes. In last night's U.S. Senate debate, he apologized and promised always to be a staunch defender of trans activists. Jim says the Democrats have learned nothing.
Finally, they react to longtime Democratic strategist James Carville saying he cannot stay in the same party as Hasan Piker. While Piker is worse than Carville, Jim explains that Carville's threat isn't all that significant.

3 AUG 2026 · Join Jim and Greg for the Monday 3 Martini Lunch as they dig into the multiple reasons we saw that alarming surge of migrants from Morocco into Spanish territory last week, the ugly family fight surrounding Ohio GOP Rep. Max Miller, Wisconsin Dems at each other's throats over the governor's primary, and very hopeful news for our friend, Jon Gabriel.
First, Jim takes us inside the multiple factors behind last week's surge of more than 60,000 illegal migrants into sovereign Spanish territory in North Africa. He explains how Spain's wrongheaded amnesty policies contributed to all of this but so did years of bad blood between neighboring nations.
Next, they wade into the family mess involving Ohio GOP Rep. Max Miller and his ex-wife, Emily. She is also the daughter of Ohio Republican Sen. Bernie Moreno. Jim and Greg review some of the accusations of abuse lodged against Miller, his online defense on Sunday, and Sen. Moreno's response. Whatever the truth is, Jim says Republicans in Ohio's 7th congressional district can do better, but they don't have much time to do it.
Then, they head back to Wisconsin, where many Democrats are furious at outgoing Gov. Tony Evers for aggressively trying to manufacture his preferred outcome in the governor's primary. Meanwhile, online posts from 2019 and 2020 are emerging in which the socialist frontrunner, Francesca Hong, wanted to ban Thanksgiving and felt uncomfortable eating around "old white people."
Finally, an encouraging update from our friend, Jon Gabriel.
