Summary
First, they credit Ohio Sen. Jon Husted for proving Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer and other Democrats don't mean it when they claim to support requiring photo ID in order to vote. They also point out the Democrats have a long history of opposing Voter ID under any circumstances and use absurd & inflammatory rhetoric to oppose GOP efforts to secure our elections.
Next, Jim breaks down how Iran’s recent missile strike on a liquefied natural gas facility in Qatar, along with tensions surrounding the Strait of Hormuz, will strain global energy markets and drive up prices. He also explains why the war needs to continue and whether our energy independence will help to insulate the U.S.
Finally, they remember martial arts icon, actor, and conservative activist Chuck Norris, who passed away at age 86. Jim and Greg discuss how Norris became a popular voice in GOP politics and how he became a larger than life figure who was beloved by people of all political stripes. Jim and Greg also have fun reciting their favorite "Chuck Norris Facts."

| 0:10.6 | Three martini's coming up. |
| 0:13.1 | Hey, we made it to Friday again. |
| 0:14.6 | That's a good martini. |
| 0:15.7 | Thanks for being with us. |
| 0:16.7 | Grab a stool, a lot to get to today. |
| 0:18.3 | We'll say goodbye to a legend, I think, in any walk of American life, but he also dabbled a little bit in politics. |
| 0:24.8 | The late great Chuck Norris, we will get to that. |
| 0:27.0 | We'll also talk about how energy issues could be a problem long term as a result of what the Iranians have blown up there in the Gulf. |
| 0:34.9 | But we start, Jim, with politics close to home. And, you know, there's this big debate over the SAVE Act, which would mandate photo ID to vote nationwide. You would also have to prove that you're a citizen when you register to vote. The Democrats keep saying that you'd have to prove it even if you already registered to vote. That's not true. And they would tighten up verification on mail and balloting. |
| 0:55.9 | Chuck Schumer's out there calling at Jim Crow 2.0, which is confusing because I thought |
| 0:59.7 | the Georgia election laws were supposedly that a couple of years ago. |

| 1:10.1 | they were satisfied with their voting experience |
| 1:12.3 | in Georgia law. Just to be clear on that, sir. Do you interrupt? Carry on. |
| 1:16.2 | Totally, totally. So anyway, you know, Democrats have been against photo ID for a long time to vote. |
| 1:21.8 | But now, because most of the attention is on approving your citizenship to register, |
| 1:26.8 | Chuck Schumer's got this preface of, well, you know, we're not against photo ID. |
| 1:30.0 | Everybody's for photo ID. |
| 1:31.7 | In fact, here's what he said not that long ago. |
