Powerful Convention Moments, Biden Panders to the Far Left, Cheatle’s Sloppy ‘Slope’ Excuse

Today, Jim and Greg discuss the most compelling and important moments from the Republican National Convention Tuesday evening, President Biden's pandering to the hard left, and U.S. Secret Service Director Kimberly Cheatle's unsatisfying interview about the assassination attempt against Donald Trump.

First, they review convention speeches from former South Carolina Gov. Nikki Haley and Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis, as Haley sought to unite the party and DeSantis took a blowtorch to Biden and his record. They also highlight Madeline Brame's impassioned speech soft-on-crime policies of Manhattan DA Alvin Bragg and other far left prosecutors. Jim believes that Nikki Haley's speech may turn out to be the most impactful in the coming election in moving the needle for Trump skeptics.

Next, they shake their heads as Biden scrambles to save his campaign by appealing to hardline progressives with promises of federal rent control in a gaffe-filled speech. Jim is bewildered at why Democrats are pushing so hard to make him the nominee, seemingly terrified of a delegate fight this late in the election cycle.

Finally, they put the spotlight on an interview that Director Cheatle did with ABC News, which raised more questions than it answered about how the shooter gained access to the roof of a building just 400 feet from Trump. They hope to see investigations and hearings that hold the Secret Service to greater accountability, but are resigned to the fact that Cheatle will not be stepping down and probably won't be fired.
