Summary

Hillsdale College Radio General Manager and Radio Free Hillsdale Hour host Scot Bertram fills in for Jim on Wednesday’s 3 Martini Lunch. Join Scot and Greg as they dig into new polling showing most Americans leaning right on key cultural and political issues, media disinterest in the attempt to attack Supreme Court justices with hundreds of explosives, and the arrogant behavior of California’s leading Democrat candidate for governor.

First, they break down the latest Harvard/Harris poll revealing that most Americans want all criminal illegal aliens deported and a majority wants all illegal immigrants removed. Large majorities also support rooting out government waste and fraud and oppose biological men competing in women’s sports. Scot and Greg break down why we're seeing these results.

Next, they expose the surprisingly quiet coverage of an attempted terrorist attack against Supreme Court justices at Washington’s annual Red Mass. A man was arrested on site with more than 200 explosives. And yet the media seem to have little interest in the story. Could it be the would-be terrorist's manifesto explaining why he wanted to kill several of the justices?

Finally, they spotlight an obnoxious interview from former Rep. Katie Porter, who is now leading the Democratic field for California governor. Porter could not handle a few simple follow-up questions from a reporter and was on the verge of cutting off the interview as a result. Unfortunately, this performance is very on brand for Porter.

0:00.0	Welcome to the three martini lunch.
0:04.9	Grab a stool next to Greg Corumbus of Radio America and Jim Garrity of National Review.
0:10.6	Three martini's coming up.
0:13.0	Hey, so glad you're with us for the Wednesday edition of the three martini lunch.
0:17.3	Today we're going to be talking about a new issue poll from Harvard Harris,
0:26.5	which suggests that the mainstream media narratives are not landing with the American people.
0:31.6	There's a whole lot of issues where the American people, I would say, are on the right side of the issue, Scott.
0:35.4	By the way, Scott Bertram in for Jim Garrity today. Let's not bury that headline.
0:39.1	Scott is the general manager of WRFH, Radio Free Hillsdale 101.7 on the campus of Hillsdale College. He's also the director of the Hillsdale College
0:44.5	podcast network and the host of many of their podcasts in that network, including the Radio Free
0:49.5	Hillsdale Hour. So Scott, always good to have you with us. Good to be here, Greg. Thanks for having me.
1:12.6	Of course. Of course. Always glad to have you. So yeah, we'll be digging into that poll, which is not going to make a lot of newsrooms very happy. We'll also be taking a look at a story that should have gotten a lot more attention. There was a traditional mass in Washington, D.C., just before the start of this year's Supreme Court session, happens every year.
1:13.9	What doesn't happen every year?
1:16.4	Somebody trying to blow it up with 200 explosives.
1:18.6	Yeah, another left-wing nut job.
1:20.3	Thankfully, nobody injured this time.
1:27.1	And we're going to be looking at Katie Porter, the leading Democrat at the moment for Governor of California in 2026. But if she does any more interviews like the ones we're going to highlight, that may hurt her.
1:31.7	You know, the most populous blue states, Scott, are New York and California.
1:36.6	Kathy Hochle, not at all popular for a myriad of reasons in New York.
1:40.2	And the leading Democrat in California, not too impressive either.
1:43.8	So as Trump said many years
1:45.2	ago, they're not sending their best. Just thinking almost the exact same thing. Like,
