Current events, satire, humor news: Iran Retreats from Yemen, Will AOC Oust Schumer? Horrible Options for NYC Mayor

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 discuss Iran pulling troops out of Yemen under U.S. pressure, a poll showing Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez crushing Sen. Chuck Schumer in a hypothetical primary, and NYC Mayor Eric Adams now running for re-election as an independent as the Democrats choose from a horrible list of candidates.First, they welcome reports that U.S. strikes in Yemen have forced Iran to pull out its forces. Jim contrasts this development with The New York Times coverage, which criticizes the cost of U.S. munitions. They also enjoy hearing that the Iranians still have no idea how to deal with President Trump and are very nervous about him.Next, they examine new polling that shows Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez dominating Sen. Chuck Schumer in a potential 2028 New York Democratic Senate primary. While they thoroughly enjoy watching Schumer twist in the political wind, Jim says the left's fascination with AOC proves that image, style, and "vibes" are becoming far too important in how people choose whom to vote for. Finally, they react to New York City Mayor Eric Adams announcing his re-election run as an independent. But they're also repulsed by the dismal field of Democratic contenders, including disgraced former Gov. Andrew Cuomo and avowed socialist city council member Zohran Mamdani. Greg predicts Mamdani will soon become the progressive media’s latest darling.Please visit our great sponsors:This spring, get up to 50% off select plants at Fast Growing Trees with code MARTINI, plus an extra 15% off at checkout on your first purchase! at https://fastgrowingtrees.com/MartiniNew episodes every weekday. 👉 Subscribe to the show so you never miss a moment.Follow us for more daily clips, updates, and commentary:FacebookInstagramYoutubeOther InfoWebsite
