Kamala’s Economic Gaslighting, Walz’s Drunk Driving Episode, Another Secret Service Blunder

Subscribe to 3 Martini LunchSubscribe

Join Jim and Greg as they still struggle to locate a good martini. Instead, they highlight how Kamala Harris is trying to gaslight Americans about why everything costs so much, the details surrounding Tim Walz's drunk driving arrest back in the '90s, and a Secret Service agent found missing from her post just moments before Trump's arrival at a rally in North Carolina.

First, they note Vice President Harris, just like President Biden, is planning to blame high prices on greedy, gouging companies instead of their reckless spending and other inflationary policies. They give Harris a quick review of why costs skyrocketed in the first couple years of the Biden-Harris administration and why demonizing corporate America is not going to help at all.

Next, they dig into the details of Tim Walz's 1995 drunk driving arrest for going 96 MPH in a 55 MPH zone. In addition to documenting that Walz lied about it as recently as his 2006 congressional campaign. Jim also points to the final days of the 2000 presidential election to prove that drunk driving arrests can cause serious problems many years later.

Finally, they groan as a Secret Service agent was discovered to be away from her post without permission just minutes before Donald Trump arrived for a rally because she was breastfeeding her baby. While they love kids, Jim and Greg don't think bringing kids to your protective detail is a very good idea. And they are stunned that anyone in the Secret Service would be cutting any corners right now.
