Why California's Election System Is Broken

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

Join Jim and Greg for the Wednesday 3 Martini Lunch as they break down California’s chaotic election process, billions in newly uncovered Obamacare and Medicaid fraud, Jill Biden’s latest delusional take on the 2024 election, and a bizarre twist in Alaska’s Senate race.First, Jim and Greg complain about California's inefficent vote counting. We are still waiting for results in the governor's race involving Xavier Becerra, Steve Hilton, and Tom Steyer, and the Los Angeles mayor's primary with Karen Bass, Spencer Pratt, and Nithya Raman. They also discuss disappointing results in other contests. Next, they dig into a new report revealing an estimated $25 billion in fraudulent Obamacare subsidy payments, along with additional Medicaid fraud uncovered in Ohio. How widespread is government healthcare fraud across the country?Then, they react to former First Lady Jill Biden’s claim that Joe Biden would have defeated President Trump in 2024 had he remained in the race. Jim and Greg strongly dispute that and wonder whether the Bidens will ever face reality.Finally, they focus on Alaska, where Sen. Dan Sullivan may have to share the ballot with another candidate named Dan Sullivan in the August primary. Is it a legitimate campaign or an attempt to create voter confusion? Greg and Jim also rip Alaska's convoluted voting system.Please visit our great sponsors:QuoMoney is on the line. Always say hello with QUO.

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
