Summary
First, Jim and Greg spotlight former Pete Buttigieg adviser Lis Smith, who openly admitted, “We resisted so hard between 2017-2024. We impeached (Trump). We prosecuted him, convicted him of 34 felony counts. And guess what? He still got elected.” CNN conservative commentator Scott Jennings that proves the legal cases against Trump were designed to derail his campaign. Jim argues not only did those efforts fail—they backfired dramatically.
Next, they unload on Arlington County, Virginia, where local officials voted unanimously to prevent county police from contacting federal immigration authorities—no matter the charges against the illegal immigrants in their custody. This week, the county board removed exceptions even for those suspected of terrorism, human trafficking, gang activity, or violent felonies. Jim suspects this insanity is driven by short-term political calculations.
Finally, they break down the controversy surrounding an Instagram post by former FBI Director James Comey, which featured seashells spelling out “8647.” The message is widely interpreted as “get rid of Trump, the 47th president." Jim suspects Comey was not calling for violence. But he also points out that there really is no way Trump will resign or be impeached during this term, so the only other way to "86" him would involve "something really terrible." Greg says Comey should already be in a heap of serious legal trouble for letting Hillary Clinton skate and for his malicious role in targeting Trump through Operation Crossfire Hurricane.

| 0:10.6 | Three martini's coming up. |
| 0:13.0 | Really glad you're with us for the Friday edition of the three martini lunch. |
| 0:17.1 | A lot to talk about today. |
| 0:19.5 | Good, bad, crazy bad. We'll be talking today about very close to |
| 0:26.4 | where Jim and I live, one of the dumbest decisions you'll ever see about a local government and how |
| 0:31.0 | it treats illegals, especially the ones who are likely to cause the most mayhem in their |
| 0:36.2 | communities. We'll also be talking, as you might expect, about former FBI director James Comey and the shell formation that he found along the beach yesterday, quote unquote. But we'll also be talking about Scott Jennings and his latest accomplishment, let's say, on CNN and getting the left to admit something that we've |
| 0:55.1 | been suspecting for quite a while. So, Jim, all of that to come. I know we've talked a lot about |
| 1:00.7 | Biden in the last week, but I think the dumbest thing I've heard this week is Jake Sullivan |
| 1:05.2 | yesterday at Politico saying he had absolutely no idea, never seen Biden any trouble at all until |
| 1:10.6 | that debate. He was |
| 1:11.3 | shocked as shocked as anyone, even though most of us weren't shocked at all. Well, what's more, |
| 1:15.9 | I believe Sullivan was asked, you know, by this anecdote in the book about Biden not being able |
| 1:20.4 | to remember his name, his own national security advisor who'd been working for Biden for a very |
| 1:25.6 | long time, way back to his vice presidential days. And Sullivan said, I don't recall. So now we have to worry about Biden's memory and |
| 1:33.2 | Sullivan's memory. I stand by the assessment of my friend Stephen Moore who said, why isn't |
| 1:38.2 | Jake Sullivan working at Chipotle? Well, don't forget, Jake Sullivan's a Clinton person. So I don't |

| 1:44.7 | It means he was well taught by the Clintons because that's how they've stayed out of incarceration |
| 1:48.7 | for the last 30 years. |
