Join Jim and Greg as they serve up martinis from Iowa and beyond.
First, Jim's excellent reporting uncovers a major surplus for the Iowa government and how GOP Gov. Kim Reynolds is eyeing additional tax cuts. Meanwhile, the high taxing states like California, Maryland, New York, and Massachusetts are running significant deficits.
Then they roll their eyes at the kindergarten-level treatment White House Chief of Staff Jeff Zients is forced to extend to cabinet secretaries. Zients is circulating a memo telling officials they need to tell someone if they will be unable to do their jobs for any stretch of time. But they also hammer Defense Sec. Lloyd Austin for making this embarrassing step necessary.
Finally, they have some fun with Minnesota Rep. Dean Phillips, after he hosts an event in New Hampshire that literally no voters bothered to attend.
