The Surge of the Anti-Israel Democrats

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

Christopher J. Scalia of the American Enterprise Institute is in for Jim Geraghty on the Friday 3 Martini Lunch. Today, Chris and Greg discuss allegations that the media could have reported on the Swalwell scandal as early as 2019, the "Michigan Mamdani: surging in the Michigan U.S. Senate race, and signs that Yale University may finally realize it lost its way.First, Chris and Greg react to a longtime Democratic activist claiming Politico was preparing a 2019 report on Eric Swalwell’s alleged sexual misconduct while he was running for president. But after Swalwell dropped out of the race, the story was never published, even though he remained in Congress. Next, they shudder as hostility towards Israel is now clearly the popular and safest position among Democrats. Abdul El-Sayed, dubbed the Michigan Mamdani, is now tied for the lead in the Michigan Democratic U.S. Senate primary. They also note that every Democratic senator rumored to be considering a presidential run just voted against military aid to Israel. Then, Chris welcomes a new report from a special Yale University commission outlining where the school has gone wrong on admissions, academics, free speech, soaring tuition costs and more. They hope it marks the beginning of a return to sanity in higher education, but will actions follow the words?Finally, Chris observes another small but important return to normalcy: some familiar-looking uniforms for the team formerly known as the Washington Redskins.Please visit our great sponsors:Prioritize restorative sleep with a mattress made just for you from Brooklyn Bedding—go to https://BrooklynBedding.com and use promo code 3ML for 30% off sitewide.When life feels overwhelming, find your balance again with BetterHelp—sign up at https://BetterHelp.com/3ML to get 10% off.xSchedule a free gold strategy session with Noble Gold.
