Common Ground with Canada, Buttigieg's Bogus Blame, Bass' Protest Paralysis

from 3 Martini Lunch – Political Humor & Commentary · host Jim Geraghty & Greg Corombos – Political Humor Commentary

Join Jim and Greg for 3 Martini Lunch as they analyze President Trump’s decision to pause tariffs on Canada, Pete Buttigieg’s absurd theory about a deadly air disaster in D.C., and Mayor Karen Bass failing to control protests in Los Angeles.First, they dive into the new U.S.-Canada border security arrangement, which has resulted in a pause of tariffs on both sides. They discuss the potential impact of this agreement and debate whether it could have been reached without the threat of tariffs, or if the public pressure and political environment played a significant role in reaching this deal.Next, they discuss former Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg’s comments on the deadly air disaster in Washington, D.C. Buttigieg suggested that the Trump administration’s offer for federal employees to resign in exchange for eight months of severance might have contributed to the tragic collision between a regional jetliner and an Army Blackhawk helicopter. Jim and Greg explain why they believe this theory is absurd and offer an update on Buttigieg's potential run for Michigan’s U.S. Senate seat.Finally, they address Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass failing to confront unruly protests against deportations of illegal immigrants. Despite the protests causing major disruptions to traffic and defacing government buildings, Bass has not taken action to restore order. Jim says this is the latest evidence that Bass is simply incapable of leading the city.Please visit our great sponsors:Betterhelphttps://BetterHelp.com/3MLDiscover your relationship green flags and get 10% off your first month at BetterHelp.com/3MLNetsuitehttps://NetSuite.com/MARTINISee what is next for your business with the CFO’s Guide to AI and Machine Learning free when you go to NetSuite.com/MARTINI.   Omaha Steaks https://www.OmahaSteaks.com/3MLGo to https://www.OmahaSteaks.com/3ML to subscribe and get 12 FREE burgers, FREE shipping, and an EXTRA 10% OFF for the life of your subscription.
