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 Virginia paroling felons at a much higher rate since the Democrats took over this year, the New York Times having to issue an embarrassing correction about the terrorist attacks against Israel, Illinois Democrats trying to put gunmakers on the hook for gun deaths and injuries, and Sen. Mitch McConnell proving he's no longer up to the job.
First, they vent over the Virginia Parole Board appointed by Democrat Gov. Abigail Spanberger granting parole to convicted felons - some of them violent criminals - at an exponentially higher pace than the board serving under recent GOP Gov. Glenn Youngkin.
Next, they vent as the New York Times publishes a story stating "Israelis still view themselves as the victims of Oct. 7." In addition to the obvious reaction, Jim explains the double standard that exists in how the Times treats writings from the left vs. the right.
Then, Greg and guest host Scot Bertram fire back as Illinois Democrats try to put gunmakers on the hook for the costs related to murders and injuries connected with firearms. We'll explain what's really happening here and why the left's logic on this is badly flawed.
Finally, they cringe as it's clear Sen. Mitch McConnell is deeply confused at best and clearly seems incapable of doing his job any longer. They discuss how unfair this lack of transparency by McConnell's staff is to his constituents and how Democratic Kentucky Gov. Andy Beshear made this whole situation worse as well.
