Summary

Join Jim and Greg for Tuesday's 3 Martini Lunch as they dig into how the Kamala Harris campaign's extravagant spending left the DNC paying her debts, President Trump's efforts to force Lisa Cook from the Federal Reserve Board of Governors, and famed rapper Snoop Dogg getting fed up at LGBT content getting shoved into movies for kids.

First, their jaws hit the floor as the New York Times reports that Kamala Harris spent $1.5 billion over a 15-week campaign and DNC had to pay her outstanding debts. There is no silver lining for the Dems from the Harris campaign, and Jim explains why he does not expect her to run in 2028.

Next, they dig into the standoff between President Trump and Lisa Cook of the Federal Reserve Board of Governors. Trump says Cook is fired for falsely claiming two different homes as her primary residence within a couple of weeks. Cook is refusing to leave the Fed. So, this is headed to court and Jim says Trump might not have the legal high ground here.

Finally, they react to Snoop Dogg getting mad that a same-sex couple with a baby was included in the new kids' movie Lightyear. It's part of the Toy Story franchise. The rapper and ubiquitous media figure says his young grandson peppered him with questions about how that could happen, and he was unprepared to answer. Snoop Dogg says that content should not be in movies geared for children, so of course many of the left are now denouncing him.

0:00.0	Welcome to the three martini lunch. Grab a stool next to Greg Carumbus of Radio America and Jim Garrity of National Review.
0:10.6	Three martini's coming up. Really glad you're with us for the Tuesday edition of the three martini lunch. We have so much to get to today.
0:18.8	We're going to be talking about how Snoop Dog somehow has become favorable on the side of cultural conservatives, and now he's being demonized on the left. We'll tell you why that's happening, and just the transformation of Snoop over the years is quite something. But we'll get into all of that. We'll also talk about Donald Trump trying to fire.
0:37.9	A member of the Federal Reserve Board, she is not accepting that firing,
0:42.5	and so there's going to be a big legal fight over that.
0:45.2	And we'll also take a look at Kamala Harris.
0:48.3	She definitely let the Democrats down in 2024,
0:51.1	and she's still letting them down from the 2024 campaign in a lot of ways, Jim.
0:55.5	So I'm sure you're licking your chops here to get into this stuff.
0:58.6	I was going to say we could do something funny about Kamala Harris just about every day.
1:04.4	And my attitude was, all right, that's almost too easy.
1:06.6	It's fish in a barrel.
1:07.7	If we're going to talk about Kamala Harris, it has to be actual news.
1:10.9	And the New York Times said actual news about her yesterday afternoon into early evening.
1:15.7	I had been leaning in this direction. I suspect she will not be running for president in
1:19.0	2028. You've got to wait just several seconds to hear about that right after this message.
1:25.0	Boy, it seems like Kamala Harris has been the headlines a long time, and when you hear all sorts of news like this
1:29.4	makes you want to get some good rest to deal with the craziness the next morning,
1:32.8	but if you're going to do that, get bowl and branch sheets.
1:36.2	As mentioned yesterday, Jim and I have both received bowl and branch sheets.
1:40.4	Thread quality, they say not thread count is what really matters, because Boland Branch uses the highest quality organic cotton threads for long-lasting sheets
1:49.0	that get softer over time, which means the more you wash them, the better they feel, Jim.
