Summary
First, as Democrats demand the extension of Obamacare premium subsidies, Andy and Greg explain how they were supposedly a "temporary" provision during the pandemic and should be scrapped. But Andy points out that the subsidies were another step in the Dems' tireless push for government-run health care, so rooting them out will be very difficult.
Next, they react to reports that a convicted Chinese fraudster owns land adjacent to the Missouri Air Force base that's home to the B-2 Stealth Bombers that that targeted Iranian nuclear sites in June. Andy explains how there is some tension in law when it comes to stopping our top foreign adversary from getting so close to our most sensitive sites, but there's something far more important than the courts or Congress when it comes to stopping the Chinese from doing this.
Finally, they shed zero tears for Sen. Chuck Schumer as the increasingly left-wing base revolts over how Senate Democrats handled the latest shutdown fight and Schumer's feeble attempts to appease the base through this pointless shutdown left him even more of a pariah in his own party. And as awful as Schumer has been, it's almost certain the next Senate Democratic leader will be even worse.

| 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. |
| 0:13.3 | So glad you're with us for the Tuesday edition of the Three Martini Lunch. |
| 0:17.2 | Jim Garrity is away today. |
| 0:18.7 | He should be back tomorrow. |
| 0:20.1 | Here in his place is Andy McCarthy. |
| 0:22.5 | He's the former chief assistant U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of New York. He's a Fox News |
| 0:26.9 | contributor, contributing editor at National Review, where he writes frequently on all sorts of legal |
| 0:32.2 | issues. And Andy, first of all, welcome back. Great to have you. I joked yesterday that Jim was |
| 0:37.7 | celebrating the Jets' second consecutive win. I'm guessing that you're all worn out from |
| 0:42.4 | celebrating that and ready for a push to a 10-7 season. Yeah, well, I'm not, I'm not as |
| 0:47.9 | rabid as Jim is because I've, I'm older than he is, so the Jets have worn me down more than they've worn Jim down. |
| 0:55.7 | But I was going to ask you, like, if the Jets beat New England on Thursday night, which I really |
| 1:00.6 | don't see happening, but let's, how many days is Jim going to take off then? |
| 1:07.0 | That is a fair question. |
| 1:08.4 | That is a fair question, yes. |
| 1:09.8 | But we're not talking about that in our main martinis today. |
| 1:12.2 | We'll be talking a little bit about the ongoing concern about Chinese nationals, |
| 1:16.8 | most of them, if not all of them, with connections to the CCP, |
| 1:20.1 | gobbling up land in this country, and some of it is dangerously and nervously close |
| 1:25.7 | to sensitive U.S. military installations. We'll be talking |
