Episode length: 24m

Subscribe to 3 Martini LunchSubscribe

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 the resignation of President Trump's National Counterterrorism Center Director Joe Kent, the childen of top Iranian officials teaching at American colleges and universities. and New York Gov. Kathy Hochul begging rich people who fled he state to come back so she can tax them again.

First, they react to National Counterterrorism Center Director Joe Kent stepping down and alleging that President Trump was pushed into war with Iran by Israel. Jim explains why this resignation and the accusations behind it go far beyond a typical policy disagreement.

Next, they react with disbelief to reports that children of senior Iranian regime figures are living in the United States and teaching at American colleges and universities. Jim has some pointed questions for U.S. immigration officials.

Then, they get a good laugh out of Kathy Hochul openly lamenting the exodus of wealthy residents from New York and urging them to return so the state can collect more tax revenue. But how she said it is also very telling.

Finally, in their Chaser of the Week, they have good news for an actress at the Oscars and the cause she is so passionate about.
