3 Martini Lunch – Political Humor & Commentary

The Disturbing Truth of Ilhan Omar's Immigration Story

3 Martini Lunch – Political Humor & Commentary

Show Notes

Join Jim and Greg for the Wednesday 3 Martini Lunch as they consider Jim's latest discoveries in the convoluted immigration story of Rep. Ilhan Omar, public GOP sniping in South Carolina and other states, Abdul El-Sayed finding the droning of Al-Qaeda leader Ayman al-Zawahiri "troubling," and Trump & others regularly talking about politicians' backsides.

First, Jim takes us through his research into the debate over Rep. Omar's age, why it matters a lot for her immigration status, and the mystery surrounding her father's immigration to the U.S. Jim also explains what the likely story is about the role of Omar's dad in the Somalian genocide and refugee crisis.

Next, they wince as Senate polls in South Carolina are very close and GOP Rep. Ralph Norman is publicly fuming about how the party forced Darline Graham on the voters. Jim and Greg agree Graham is a weak candidate, but they also don't love the intraparty sniping just days before the election.

Then, they shake their heads as 2022 comments from Abdul El-Sayed call the U.S. killing of Al Qaeda leader Ayman al-Zawahiri "troubling" and accuse President Biden of "flogging" War on Terror talking points to justify it.

Finally, why do President Trump and others keep referencing politicians' backsides in recent rallies? Can you please stay focused?
