Israel Spills Hezbollah Secret, Cracks in Kamala’s Blue Wall, Abortion Surges as Key Issue

Subscribe to 3 Martini LunchSubscribe

Join Jim and Greg as they offer two good martinis and a lousy one. Today, they discuss Israel's creative, non-violent strategy against Hezbollah, Kamala Harris’s team fretting over key "blue wall" states, and how abortion has re-emerged as a leading issue in the 2024 campaign.

First, they break down Israel’s clever tactic of outing a Hezbollah bunker hidden beneath a hospital in Beirut. The Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) publicly announced the location and stated there was a lot of money and gold stored there. Jim and Greg explain why this is a brilliant move that puts Hezbollah in a tough position. They also have fun speculating on which Hollywood movie this situation resembles most.

Next, Jim highlights his “Morning Jolt” report about the Harris campaign’s concerns in battleground states. They reveal that Michigan, North Carolina, and Wisconsin are causing serious worry for Democrats. Greg and Jim explain why Harris is struggling in Michigan and urge conservatives to focus on voter turnout, rather than being distracted by political betting odds.

Finally, they react to Newsweek’s report that abortion is now the second most important issue for voters. While the economy still holds the top spot and immigration is close behind, abortion’s prominence is seen as a political advantage for Democrats. Meanwhile, Republicans continue to fumble for a cohesive message. Jim and Greg also share their thoughts on some of the most absurd arguments Democrats are making against Trump.
