Summary

Join Jim and Greg as they're pleasantly staggered to see Connecticut Sen. Richard Blumenthal publicly slamming the federal government for not doing more to get American citizens and our Afghan allies out of Afghanistan. They also dig into recently divulged documents showing labs in China were doing experiments with SARS-related cornavirus on mice with human cells and we paid for it. And they unload on the Biden administration for its ongoing lies about Americans and Afghan allies being allowed to leave.

0:43.5	And the reason that Dick Blumenthal is not happy and the reason that we think he's actually
0:48.2	doing the right thing here is because he is calling out the Biden administration because
0:53.6	as we learned over the weekend, there are planes waiting to take off from Missouri Shereef
