Summary
First, they highlight the exceptional performance of the B-2 Bomber pilots, the lengthy and complex mission, and the airtight operational security, which may have been achieved by not telling any Democrats about the mission until after it happened. They also highlight how President Trump deftly pushed for a diplomatic solution, ramped up the tough talk, seemed to grant a two-week reprieve and then successfully surprises everyone with the timing of the strikes.
Next, they contemplate what will come next - both from Iran and the United States. Will Iran close the Straits of Hormuz, focus on U.S. military bases in the region like today in Qatar, unleash sleeper cells in the U.S., or prioritize cyberterrorism? They also weigh in on Vice President Vance saying the U.S. does not have a goal of regime change in Iran while Trump openly suggests it on social media.
Finally, they react to some of the most unhinged reactions to the bombings in Iran. Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez thinks Trump's actions are impeachable. Obama administration figure Tommy Vietor says any deadly response from Iran will be because we started it. And even the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Office condemned the bombings.

| 0:00.0 | Welcome to the three martini lunch. |
| 0:04.9 | Grab a stole next to Greg Corumbus of Radio America and Jim Garrity of National Review. |
| 0:10.6 | Three martini's coming up. |
| 0:12.9 | So glad you're with us for the Monday edition of the Three Martini Lunch. |
| 0:16.6 | Jim Garrity is away and it's got to be killing him. |
| 0:19.4 | He would love to be talking today. But he's |
| 0:21.5 | on a much deserved vacation and here in his place we are thrilled to have Tevi Troy. He's a presidential historian. He is a senior fellow at the Ronald Reagan Institute. He is a huge diehard fan and a three martini lunch fan. So that'll always get you everywhere you want to go. Tevi, sorry we don't have a bigger news day for you, but we're really glad to have you. Well, it's great to be here. I really |
| 0:21.3 | am going to have you. Well, it's great to be here. I really am going to have a great time channeling Jim today with that kind of a wry sense of humor that he has and the ability to find a way to mention diehard no matter what the situation, no matter how big the emergency, he can always find a way to bring diehard in there. And we will get close to the LAPD today. We're talking about the L.A. Sheriff's Office, which is not an entity that was present, as far as we know it, and NACA. back in 88. But they have definitely beclown themselves over the last 48 hours. Oh, yeah. Sounds like Wing T. Robinson is working for them. Yeah, he's shifted over to the sheriff's office. But all right, well, we got a lot to get to when we're talking about the U.S. strikes on Iran over the weekend, what we can expect to follow that, and some of the most ludicrous responses. So we're going to be talking all about the U.S. strikes on the Iranian nuclear facilities. But in the meantime, let's talk about Hillsdale College. |

| 1:32.6 | when you're talking about understanding the institutions that underpin our society and make it successful, |
| 1:38.6 | Hillsdale is second to none in that department when it comes to higher education. |
| 1:42.2 | And right now, they have a very special focus on |
| 1:44.6 | capitalism. You go to most other schools, they'll tell you capitalism is evil. The people in charge |
| 1:49.4 | of capitalistic enterprises are greedy and they exploit people. No, no, no, no, no. Capitalism is the |
| 1:54.8 | most successful economic system ever devised. And now Hillsdale College can teach you the truth about it |
| 1:59.7 | in a free online course entitled Understanding Capitalism. In fact now Hillsdale College can teach you the truth about it in a free online course |

| 2:19.2 | In Understanding Capitalism, you'll learn about the role of profit and loss, why capitalism |
