Trump’s Big Court Win, Newsom Advances Gerrymandering Plot, Racist or Stupid Virginia Dem?

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

Join Jim and Greg for the Friday 3 Martini Lunch as they discuss a New York court tossing the roughly half-billion dollar penalty imposed on President Trump in his civil trial, Gov. Newsom advancing his aggressive gerrymandering plan through the legislature, and a Virginia Democrat’s racist protest sign targeting Lt. Gov. Winsome Earle-Sears.First, they applaud the New York appeals court for throwing out the staggering half-billion-dollar penalty levied against Trump over alleged asset overvaluation. While the civil judgment remains in place, the ruling delivers another humiliating setback for New York Attorney General Letitia James and Judge Arthur Engoron, who pursued the politically charged case.Next, they chronicle California Democrats easily passing Gov. Gavin Newsom's gerrymandering initiative through the lopsided California legislature. It now advances to a November ballot proposal. In addition, after polling originally showed Californians preferring to keep the independent redistricting commission by nearly 30 percentage points, Newsom's plan is now favored by California voters by more than 20 points. But that's coming from Newsom's pollster.Finally, they zero in on the Democrat activist in Virginia who protested GOP gubernatorial nominee Winsome Earle-Sears on Thursday. As Lt. Gov. Sears scolded Northern Virginia school districts for refusing to keep boys out of girls sports or girls private spaces, one lefty held a sign saying, "Hey Winsome, if trans can't share your bathroom, then blacks can't share my water fountain." The activist later insisted it was satire. Of course, the media is not ruining the woman's life. Jim and Greg discuss the appalling double standard in how the the media treat people on the left vs. the right.Please visit our great sponsors:Keep your skin looking and acting younger for longer.

But his contentment is disturbed when the wizard Gandalf and a company of dwarves arrive on his doorstep one day to whisk him away
