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 focus on the U.S. military's incredible execution in Operation Epic Fury against Iran, the downfall of Homeland Security Sec. Kristi Noem, and the Dems' disturbing fondness for a truly radical Senate candidate.
First, Jim and Greg look at the jaw-dropping performance of the U.S. military in the war against Iran. Within the first few hours, the United States and Israel killed Iran's Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khameini and dozens of other top officials and seized military dominance by air and sea.
Next, they look at how the week ended with President Trump firing Homeland Security Sec. Kristi Noem. Her congressional testimony seems to have been the final straw, as she admitted to spending $220 million on ads for the department. She claims President Trump knew about those costs and approved them. Noem also said there was open bidding for those contracts. That does not appear to be true.
Then, they shake their heads as Democrats are starting to rally around Maine U.S. Senate candidate Graham Platner despite his Nazi Totenkopf tattoo, radical writings, and disturbing associations. So why is the left OK with Platner?
Finally, the "chaser" for the week is how a once-famous TV pitchman got wiped out in a Texas congressional primary.
