Join Jim and Greg as they take the current president and both major party nominees to task today. They unload on Kamala’s proposed government intrusion into the economy, Trump’s cavalier comparison involving the Medal of Honor, and Biden’s staff having to explain yet again that what Biden said isn’t administration policy.

First, they review more specifics from Vice President Harris’s economic plan to reduce the cost of food, housing and more. They explain that the money she wants to give first-time homebuyers will only drive up prices – due to the infusion of money and higher demand. And they tee off on her plans to tell companies how much they are allowed to charge. And one of Jim’s fellow Washington Post columnists – who is not on the political right – pulls no punches on condemning the agenda.

Join Jim and Greg as they still struggle to locate a good martini. Instead, they highlight how Kamala Harris is trying to gaslight Americans about why everything costs so much, the details surrounding Tim Walz’s drunk driving arrest back in the ’90s, and a Secret Service agent found missing from her post just moments before Trump’s arrival at a rally in North Carolina.

First, they note Vice President Harris, just like President Biden, is planning to blame high prices on greedy, gouging companies instead of their reckless spending and other inflationary policies. They give Harris a quick review of why costs skyrocketed in the first couple years of the Biden-Harris administration and why demonizing corporate America is not going to help at all.

Join Jim and Greg as they offer no good martinis but a whole tray of crazy ones. Today, they react to media reports that Kamala’s campaign is doctoring media headlines in online ads, Harris trying to politically reinvent herself as the change candidate in 2024, and the media realizing it’s now OK to admit Hunter Biden was up to his eyeballs in shady foreign deals due to his name and access to his dad.

First, they fume at an Axios story explaining that the Harris campaign created fake headlines under the banner of real media outlets like Reuters, USA Today, and CBS News. The reporter who broke the story then immediately tried to downplay it and the media entities involved hardly seem to care.

Join Jim and Greg as they applaud Fox News anchor Bret Baier for easily blowing up the Democrats’ ridiculous narrative about debates, enjoy watching a studio audience laugh at the idea of CNN being objective but highlight the disturbing truth beneath it, and they document the ongoing hall-of-fame level grift perpetrated by the Lincoln Project.

First, they react to Bret Baier immediately shredding the weak argument from New York Rep, Dan Goldman that Donald Trump is afraid to debate Kamala Harris – and pointing out that Harris is the one refusing to commit to debates right now.

Jim Geraghty is back after a much-deserved vacation and weathering the remnants of Hurricane Debby. Join Jim and Greg as they cheer Virginia Gov. Glenn Youngkin and his team for their due diligence in preparing for the elections, scold the AP and other media for allowing Kamala Harris to dodge serious questions for three weeks and counting, and slamming Tim Walz for forcing his own 87-year-old mom to isolate after heart surgery during Covid.

First, they applaud Virginia for doing what Jim calls the “basic blocking and tacking of government” and making sure the commonwealth’s voter rolls are up to date. In doing so, officials found 80,000 dead people still eligible to vote along with more than 6,300 non-citizens. This shouldn’t be that hard to update. So why isn’t every state doing it?

Undisputed King of Stuff and Discourse Magazine and Arizona Republic columnist Jon Gabriel is in for Jim. Today, Jon and Greg offer brief thoughts on the 50th anniversary of President Nixon’s resignation. Then they hammer the British government for criminalizing free speech, take CNN to task for minimizing JD Vance’s service in defense of Tim Walz, and get a good laugh at just how far Politico will go to carry water for the left.

First, they unload on officials in the UK who threaten to arrest anyone for making or repeating a social media post they deem offensive or could lead to violence. And they have many police officers who spend all day scouring social media looking for offenders.

Inez Stepman of the Independent Women’s Forum and host of the “High Noon” podcast is in for Jim. Today, Inez and Greg discuss the controversy over Gov. Tim Walz’s military service, his problem with free speech, and a federal judge ruling that Google is a “monopolist.”

First, they dig into the back-and-forth between Gov. Walz and Sen. JD Vance over Vance’s life story, whether Walz retired from the Army National Guard to avoid going to Iraq, and Walz’s documented comments about “weapons of war that I carried in war.” Will this be a lingering issue in the campaign? Inez says this alone might not be a huge problem long term for Harris-Walz but additional stories that raise doubts about his veracity might be a different story.

Brian Wesbury, Chief Economist at First Trust LP and the former Chief Economist for the Joint Economic Committee of Congress, is in for Jim. Today, Brian and Greg dissect Kamala Harris choosing Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz as her running mate and why it may be a gift to the GOP. Brian also explains why the markets are in turmoil right now, why you shouldn’t panic, and more.

First, they respond to the breaking news that Harris-Walz will be the ticket for Democrats in 2024. They explain why this is the furthest left ticket in recent memory and why it gives Donald Trump and JD Vance ample opportunities to expose how far out of the mainstream Harris and Walz really are. And they discuss the Walz record in Minnesota – from his disastrous handling of the 2020 riots to his far left economic and social positions.

Hillsdale College Radio General Manager and Radio Free Hillsdale Hour Host Scot Bertram is in for Jim today. After a brief update on the prisoner swap with Russia, Scot and Greg discuss the final jockeying among Democrats to be the vice presidential nominee, July’s worse-than-expected unemployment report, and Kamala flubbing her first unscripted moment in weeks.

First, they examine the state of the Democrats’ veepstakes, including some last-minute efforts to pour cold water on the possibility of Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro joining the Harris ticket. They also comment on how aggressively some figures are campaigning for the job when historically they have downplayed any interest.

It’s four martinis for the price of three today as Jim and Greg unpack the latest details in the killing of Hamas political leader Ismail Haniyeh, the prisoner swap with Russia that freed two Americans, the government striking a plea bargain with 9/11 mastermind Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, and Donald Trump focusing on Kamala’s race instead of her train wreck of a record.

First, they enjoy learning how Haniyeh was killed by a bomb planted months earlier and detonated remotely. It seems to point more clearly to an Israeli operation and a massive, embarrassing failure for the Iranian government and especially its terrorist arm, the Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps.

Today, Jim and Greg discuss VP Kamala Harris’s reversals on several positions she ran on in 2020, the weak U.S. response to election fraud in Venezuela, and Biden’s unconscionable positions on the Supreme Court.

First, they get whiplash from Kamala’s sudden switch on fracking, assault rifle bans, a single payer healthcare system, and more. Jim is encouraged that she is forced to recognize that the Overton Window has shifted right, but he’d like to see her do an interview and explain her position changes on these issues.

Today, Jim and Greg discuss the long shadow behind the recent wave of Kamalamania, from reports that Vice President Kamala Harris treats her staffers terribly, to some highly questionable stances she has taken on immigration and radical Islamic terrorism, to many seeing her as a drag on Biden just a few months ago.

First, they dive into the numerous reports of her troubled vice presidency, featuring an astronomical turnover rate for staffers and a disinterest in being briefed that leads to foolish-looking public appearances. Jim is especially troubled by her disinterest in being briefed, forecasting a fraught presidency if she is elected and keeps this up.

Today, Jim and Greg discuss polls emerging that show Americans believe Vice President Harris helped to cover up President Biden’s decline, Donald Trump not committing to debate Harris yet, and the reluctant endorsement that the Obamas finally gave Kamala.

First, they raise a double-fisted good martini to polls that confirm a broad acknowledgement of the cover-up of Biden’s declining health, with many Americans believing Kamala had a role to play in concealing his true condition. They also observe how she is slowly coming more and more into the spotlight, taking on duties and making appearances that one would expect of the president. And they applaud the Free Beacon’s Matthew Continetti for pointing out the media whiplash on how it characterizes Biden.

Today, Jim and Greg discuss President Biden’s address to the nation last night, Prime Minister Netanyahu’s remarks to Congress, and the media trying to cover up the fact that Kamala was tasked with stopping the tide of humanity illegally crossing our border – and failed.

First, they go over some highlights from Biden’s address, which gave us no clarifying information about why he decided not to run again. They also roll their eyes at his final attempts to gaslight the American people about the merits of his presidency and his ugly insinuation that the fate of our republic depends upon Kamala Harris winning in November.
