Garland Grilled Over Border, Biden’s Border Posturing, Scarborough’s Absurd Biden Defense

Subscribe to 3 Martini LunchSubscribe

Today, Jim and Greg discuss Texas Rep. Rep. Chip Roy's unrelenting takedown of Attorney General Merrick Garland's border security record, Biden's useless new executive order to limit border crossings, and Joe Scarborough's dubious assertion that Joe Biden is sharper than any House Speaker over the past 30 years.

First, they applaud Texas Rep. Chip Roy for taking Attorney General Merrick Garland to task for trying to excuse the egregious lack of enforcement at the border and pin the blame on a lack of funds. Jim says for Garland to blame the problem on a lack of funding is insulting.

Next, they explain why President Biden's executive order that supposedly tightens border security has no teeth because there are so many loopholes that nothing really changes.

Finally, Jim has little patience for MSNBC's Joe Scarborough trying to rebut a Wall Street Journal story about Biden's cognitive decline by claiming that Biden is mentally sharper than every Speaker of the House over the past 30 years.
