Trump Protects Women’s Sports, Bondi Blocks Sanctuary Funding, State Dem Stunts Fail

Subscribe to 3 Martini LunchSubscribe

Jim and Greg serve up all good martinis on 3 Martini Lunch as they break down President Trump's executive order banning men from women’s sports, Attorney General Pam Bondi cutting off funding for sanctuary cities, and Democrats’ electoral shenanigans backfiring in multiple states.

First, they cheer Trump for signing an executive order to keep men out of women’s sports, regardless of how those men "identify." They highlight America’s overwhelming support for the move despite years of media narratives suggesting otherwise. They also note that even left-wing figures like tennis legend Martina Navratilova admit Democrats just handed Trump a major campaign weapon for 2024.

Next, they applaud U.S. Attorney General Pam Bondi for cutting off Justice Department funding to self-proclaimed sanctuary cities. Jim compares this to the transgender sports debate, emphasizing that the left ignores just how strongly Americans want criminal illegals out of the country and illegal immigration to stop.

Finally, they take satisfaction in Democrats' political stunts likely failing in Minnesota and New York. In Minnesota, Democrats stalled state house business because Republicans temporarily hold a one-seat majority, but after weeks of dysfunction, a power-sharing agreement is finally taking shape. Meanwhile, New York Democrats appear to be retreating from an effort to delay a special election to replace GOP Rep. Elise Stefanik, which would have prolonged the razor-thin Republican majority in the U.S. House.
