Eric Swalwell & Tony Gonzales Resign from Congress, Fallout Begins

Episode length: 29m

Subscribe to 3 Martini LunchSubscribe

Join Jim and Greg for the Tuesday 3 Martini Lunch as they react to two much-needed congressional resignations, New York Times columnist Tom Friedman's insane indecision over who he wants to win the Iran war, and President Trump's social media post of an image depicting him as Jesus.

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, 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 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,

Then, they discuss President Trump's Truth Social post with many people seeing it as him being depicted as Jesus. Jim and Greg also discuss Trump's war of words with Pope Leo XIV over the Iran war and immigration policy.

Finally, they react to the elections in Hungary, where Viktor Orban and his party were soundly defeated in parliamentary elections.
