Iran Slaughters Its People, How Will Trump Respond?

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

Join Jim and Greg for the Monday 3 Martini Lunch as they tackle three major stories: the Iranian regime’s brutal crackdown on its own citizens and what a smart U.S. response should be, Democrats abruptly condemning pro-Hamas demonstrators after years of coddling them, and the rise of the so-called “Karen-tifada,” women who spend all day harassing ICE agents.First, they react to horrifying reports that hundreds or thousands of Iranians were killed in the streets by Iran's ruthless regime. President Trump warned there would be consequences for such atrocities. Will he make good on that promise, and what would an effective, strategic U.S. response actually look like?Next, Jim and Greg note a surprising but still highly suspect shift as numerous Democrats suddenly denounce a pro-Hamas rally held in a Jewish neighborhood of New York City. Condemning Hamas is the right thing to do but why are so many Democrats doing this major reversal in lockstep after so many took the side of these odious activists over the past few years?Finally, they chronicle the reckless and potentially dangerous actions of ICE Watch, a group largely made up of middle-aged or older women who track ICE operations, scream at officers, and sometimes interfere with enforcement efforts. Jim tries to figure their motivation for this madness. Greg reads off the horrific crimes committed by the dangerous people these women are inexplicably trying to protect from law enforcement.Please visit our great sponsors:Improve your sleep with Brooklyn Bedding.

The Hobbit by J. R. R. Tolkien Audiobook Raghvendra Singh The journey through Middle-earth begins here with J.R.R. Tolkien's classic prelude to his Lord of the Rings trilogy.“A glorious account of a magnificent adventure, filled with suspense and seasoned with a quiet humor that is irresistible... All those, young or old, who love a fine adventurous tale, beautifully told, will take The Hobbit to their hearts.”—The New York Times Book Review"In a hole in the ground there lived a hobbit." So begins one of the most beloved and delightful tales in the English language—Tolkien's prelude to The Lord of the Rings. Set in the imaginary world of Middle-earth, at once a classic myth and a modern fairy tale, The Hobbit is one of literature's most enduring and well-loved novels.Bilbo Baggins is a hobbit who enjoys a comfortable, unambitious life, rarely traveling any farther than his pantry or cellar. But his contentment is disturbed when the wizard Gandalf and a company of dwarves arrive on his doorstep one day to whisk him away
