Summary
First, after a quick note on the latest air traffic control concerns at Newark Airport, Jim and Greg welcome news of a grand jury indictment against Judge Hannah Dugan. She’s accused of helping a criminal illegal immigrant avoid arrest by ICE. New reports suggest the judge went even further to shield the defendant from federal authorities. But with the case unfolding in deep blue Milwaukee, they wonder if the prosecution can actually win a conviction.
Next, they analyze President Trump’s announcement from the Middle East that he intends to lift U.S. sanctions on Syria and its new leadership. Is it a shrewd, strategic attempt to peel Syria away from Iran and Russia, or a premature reward for a leader with a long history in radical Islamist terrorism? Jim explains why he thinks Trump is making the right decision.
Finally, they react to George Clooney’s claim that President Biden failed to recognize him at a major fundraiser Clooney hosted in June 2024. While some on the right suggest Clooney was only alarmed because Biden's lack of recognition bruised his ego, Jim points to this as another example that Biden was not up to the job but Democrats and the media tried to cover for him until they couldn't any longer.

| 1:06.1 | they're still ordering floppy disks to run this operation in a lot of different ways. So, |
