Jean-Pierre Claims Independence, Time to Ditch Debt Ceiling? Media Back Terrorist Family

Episode length: 29m

Subscribe to 3 Martini LunchSubscribe

Join Jim and Greg for the 3 Martini Lunch as they roast Karine Jean-Pierre for her laughable new political posture, recoil at President Trump and Sen. Elizabeth Warren pushing to scrap the debt ceiling, and dive into the debate over the Boulder terrorist's family.

First, Jim and Greg make no attempt to contain their ridicule of former White House Press Secretary Karine Jean Pierre, as she laments the brokenness of Washington and positions herself as disillusioned with the system. Jean-Pierre is now burning bridges with Democrats and proving she frequently lied to us from the White House podium.

Next, they marvel at Trump and Warren’s sudden agreement on scrapping the debt ceiling. Jim points out that Trump has said he wants to balance the budget, yet he is pushing for more spending. They worry that this will lead to even more irresponsible spending in Washington.

Finally, they push back against media narratives painting the Boulder terrorist’s family as victims. The entire family overstayed tourist visas and is in the country illegally. Jim notes that U.S. law prohibits the families of terrorists from remaining in the country, making deportation not just appropriate, but required.
