Summary

Join Jim and Greg for Monday’s 3 Martini Lunch as they dissect the liberal media’s persistent fantasy of a blue Texas, the horrifying massacres of Christians and Druze in Syria, and the left’s conspiracy-laced outrage over CBS canceling The Late Show with Stephen Colbert.

First, Jim calls out Politico for spotlighting Texas State Rep. James Talarico as the latest Democratic hope to flip Texas for the Democrats. Talarico, who recently appeared on Joe Rogan’s podcast, is seen as someone who could connect with Christian conservatives. But Talarico isn’t even running statewide, and Jim says there’s no real evidence Democrats are on the brink of flipping the Lone Star State.

Next, they react with horror to reports that more than 700 people have been brutally murdered in Syria in recent days, including Christians and Druze targeted by Sunni Islamist militants. Jim explains what's happening in Syria, the impact of the U.S. lifting sanctions not long ago, and whether the new leader in Syria (who was formerly with ISIS) is incapable or unwilling to stop the bloodshed.

Then, they get a kick out of the left's meltdown over CBS cancelling The Late Show. From Sen. Chris Murphy to former NPR CEO Vivian Schiller, the lefties are convinced President Trump made axing Colbert a condition for approving Paramount's pending merger and we are entering a "bone-chilling" era of censorship. These activists seem uninterested in the fact Colbert's show was losing CBS $40 million per year.

Finally, Jim and Greg pay tribute to Ed Feulner, the founder and longtime president of the Heritage Foundation, who died on Friday, after decades of work in the conservative movement.
