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 discuss Joe Kent offering to testify for the defense in the Charlie Kirk murder case, an Illinois politician blaming the victim for being murdered by an illegal alien, and Jimmy Kimmel mocking Homeland Security Secretary Markwayne Mullin’s blue-collar background
First, they react with disbelief as former National Counterterrorism Center Director Joe Kent claims the FBI blocked his investigation into Charlie Kirk’s assassination and now says he is willing to testify in defense of the accused killer. Jim and Greg weigh in on the unhinged, conspiracy-minded podcast hosts and what this tells us about Kent in particular.
Next, they fume over the murder of a college student near Loyola University in Chicago, allegedly at the hands of an illegal immigrant. A Chicago alderman quickly suggested on social media that the victim may unintentionally be to blame or her own killing. Jim calls out the left's huge double standard on illegals.
Then, they also call out Jimmy Kimmel for ridiculing Sec. Mullin’s roots as a plumber. In the chaser of the week, Jim and Greg highlight Virginia Rep. Don Beyer admitting his state's gerrymandering effort is "unfair" but explainng why he thinks voters should approve of it anyway.
