Join Jim and Greg as they enjoy two good martinis along with a crazy one. They’re thrilled with the news that President Biden and Sen. Manchin remain far apart on the massive spending & entitlement legislation and a vote this year is looking more and more unlikely. They also cheer Amtrak for announcing it will not be enforcing a vaccine mandate, the latest blow to Biden’s efforts to force private companies to demand employees get the vaccine. And Jen Psaki sets herself for another day of withering fire by insisting that we’re seeing much higher prices for beef due to the “greed of meat conglomerates.”

Mark Twain is credited with saying “history doesn’t repeat itself, but it often rhymes”. In our modern political environment (especially on the left but not absent from the right), political ideas don’t rhyme but are often regurgitated.  One example is our “debate” over climate changed and the “solutions” to it. We all know the usual talking […]

Join Jim and Greg for the Friday martinis! After a quick discussion on Michigan Democrats censuring one of their state representatives who recovered from COVID and thanked President Trump for mentioning hydroxychloroquine, they turn to three bad martinis. First, they’re bummed to hear Chinese trials of remdesivir were apparently a bust. They also grimace as the virus is significantly limiting production at meat processing plants. And they hammer Trump and the media over Thursday’s disinfectant dust-up.

On another topic we strayed into speculation about how liberals may not have forseen or orchestrated the virus but are now having wishful thinking of an expanded Bernie influence, to make the virus carry that load of unexplained socialist “inevitability” we would normally see past and resist. Well is time of the essence? Today Rush […]

Jim Geraghty of National Review and Greg Corombos of Radio America react to California Gov. Gavin Newsom greatly scaling back high-speed rail in the state, proving once again that the concept is not the dream solution that liberals think it is.  They also slam New Jersey Sen. Bob Menendez for being outraged that people entering the U.S. illegally and illegal immigrants caught driving drunk are treated like criminals.  And they have fun with New Jersey Sen. Cory Booker declaring that meat consumption is destroying the planet and that he wants to make the existing model of the food system obsolete.

How Do You Make That: Tender Pork Chops

 

I love pork chops, but I really dislike pork chops the consistency of shoe leather. Fortunately, I did not have to eat leathery pork chops while Janet was alive, and I learned her technique for cooking them before she died. Pork chops have become one of my go-to meals when I have company over, and they all marvel over their tenderness. Yet making them is ridiculously easy. Here is how.

The offer “Would you like a Salisbury steak for dinner?” “Salisbury? Must be fancy! And it’s steak. Can’t wait!” Presentation “Wait a minute… it’s a measly hamburger patty with onions and sauce. Really?” Mastication “Oh, my — this is amazing.” Epiphany “It’s so good, it makes hamburger steak-like. What’s the name of that town, again?” […]

In the same vein as Aaron Miller’s recent “Why so serious?” post, progressive elites – in this case at the United Nations, but I repeat myself – have found a new way to make us hate our lives by loving our planet: a meat tax. That’s the policy solution suggested by the U.N.’s International Resource Panel, […]

So, being unapologetic carnivores, when T-Bones were on sale for $6/lb I went off to the store to get a few. Well, we normally get one and three quarters to two pounders to grill for the two of us. I had a senior moment and asked the butcher to cut them one and three quarters […]
