GOP to Keep Medicaid Funding for Abortions as they Hit Record Highs

Join Jim and Greg for the Friday 3 Martini Lunch as they react to Vice President Vance clarifying the terms of the negotiations with Iran, congressional Republicans likely allowing Medicaid dollars to fund abortions as the number of abortions hit record highs, and Senate Democrat Leader Chuck Schumer more and more open to supporting the candidate who had the Nazi tattoo.First, they react to Vice President JD Vance clarifying the terms of negotiations with Iran, explaining that Donald Trump agreed to a different 10-point framework proposed by Iranian officials, not the widely circulated list of extreme demands seen in media and social media. So what's in the other plan?Next, they express deep concern over Planned Parenthood reporting a record 434,450 abortions in Fiscal Year 2024–2025. They're also frustrated by reports that House Speaker Mike Johnson does not plan to include a ban on Medicaid funding for abortions in the upcoming reconciliation bill.Then, they watch the dysfunction on the Democrats' side of the aisle as Sen. Schumer says he will fully support far left Maine U.S. Senate candidate Graham Platner if Platner defeats Schumer's preferred candidate, Gov. Janet Mills, in the primary. Platner is the one who had a Totenkopf tattoo until very recently. Jim also notes the financial woes still afflicting the Democratic National Committee.Finally, parents in Fairfax County, Virginia, are getting frustrated that a majority of weeks during the school year do not have five full days of instruction. Fairfax County parent Jim Geraghty weighs in on the controversy.Please visit our great sponsors:Stop putting off those doctors’ appointments and visit https://Zocdoc.com/3ML to find and instantly book a top-rated doctor today.Better plants, better growing, and an extra 20% off with code MARTINI at https://FastGrowingtrees.com/Martini for a limited time; terms and conditions may apply.New episodes every weekday. 👉 Subscribe to the show so you never miss a moment.Follow us for more daily clips, updates, and commentary:FacebookInstagramYoutubeOther InfoWebsite
