One Year Without Charlie Kirk: How His Absence Changed the Right

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

Join Jim and Greg for the Thursday 3 Martini Lunch as they reflect upon the one year anniversary of Charlie Kirk's assassination and what has happened since, AI whistleblowers warning that the technology could kill all of us within a decade, President Trump's promise of $5,000 checks if Republicans keep control of Congress, and Democratic Pennsylvania Sen. John Fetterman participating in the GOP midterm convention.First, they mark one year since the horrific, public murder of TPUSA Founder Charlie Kirk in Utah. They discuss the huge hole Charlie leaves in the conservative movement, the disgusting conspiracy theories Erika Kirk and others have been forced to endure, and how the right is more fractured without Charlie here.Next, they react to a former Anthropic employee saying Anthropic and OpenAI are not operating responsibly, that AI will soon be beyond their control, and that it will kill all of us within the next decade. Jim and Greg don't think humanity will be wiped out over the next 10 years but they are bothered by tech company leaders who don't seem to care if they lose control of this technology.Then they wince as President Trump promises $5,000 checks to every adult citizen if Republicans maintain majorities in the House and Senate. Jim and Greg explain how cutting checks like this over the past several years has not been good for our economy.Finally, they discuss Sen. Fetterman taking part in the GOP midterm convention. Jim points out that Fetterman is hated on the left and too liberal for the right. So will Fetterman run for re-election and what will that look like?Please visit our great sponsors:ZocDocYour health matters and taking care of yourself shouldn’t be complicated.
