  • The Attempted Assassination of Donald Trump

    The Attempted Assassination of Donald Trump
    Jul 15 2024
    Today, Jim and Greg do wall-to-wall coverage of Saturday's attempted assassination of former President Donald Trump. They discuss the miracle of Trump's survival, the suspicious details coming out about how the Secret Servicefailed to stop the shooter before he fired, and a mainstream media that will always find a way to attack Trump, even as he recovers from an attempt on his life.

    First, they take a few moments to express gratitude for Trump's survival. Jim points out that mere microseconds made the difference between what could have been one of the darkest moments in our nation's history, and the survival of our former president.

    Next, they point to the very obvious need to beef up the quality of the Secret Service, which failed to secure an obvious security concern with a clear line of sight to Trump. Officers also did not respond to the threat of the gunman climbing onto the roof until he began firing. Jim recalls many instances of lax, unprofessional behavior on the part of the Secret Service in the past, and hopes that this near-disaster will lead to a serious investigation of the agency.

    Finally, they facepalm at how the media handled coverage of the shooting, starting with their hesitancy to call the shooting a shooting even though video footage made that clear. They also slam prominent reporters for criticizing Trump's initial reaction to being shot and his perfectly normal statement a short time later. And Jim and Greg discuss Morning Joe being pre-empted this morning, reportedly because NBC wanted to avoid any of the guests making an inappropriate comment.

  • Dems Still Stuck, Biden's Gaffes & Gaslighting, RNC's Regrettable Guest Speaker

    Dems Still Stuck, Biden's Gaffes & Gaslighting, RNC's Regrettable Guest Speaker
    Jul 12 2024
    Today, Jim and Greg discuss President Biden's press conference last night and how Democrats are still twisting in the wind. They also highlight Biden's embarrassing verbal fumbles. And they weigh in on the news that former stripper and Kanye West girlfriend Amber Rose will speak at the Republican National Convention.

    They begin with an overview of the press conference. Jim notes that while it was not bad by Biden standards, that still does not make it remotely good.

    Next, they highlight some of Biden's worst gaffes from the conference, including referring to President Zelensky as President Putin and to VP Kamala Harris as "Vice President Trump." Greg notes Biden's horribly revionist view of the economy and his ongoing demonization if Israel. Jim says Dems should be shuddering over Biden's statement that he would refuse to step down even if the polls hypothetically showed that Kamala Harris was more likely to beat Trump than him.

    Finally, they lament the Republican National Convention's unfortunate speaker choice of Amber Rose, an ex-stripper who dated Kanye West and has several other tawdry items on her resume. Jim wonders whose idea it was to pick Rose, observing that this decision makes the RNC seem desperate for anyone remotely famous.

Short, sharp and timely

Every day, the 2 commentators pick three news items and rate them as a "good", "bad" or "crazy" martini. You get a short summary of the issue and their response and why they ranked them. Conservative bent but focus is mainly commonsense. Conservatives and liberals get called out. 20 minutes long, published M-F. Lots of fun - give it a try.
