Join Jim and Greg for the Tuesday 3 Martini Lunch as they discuss Democrats failing to explain why they're inflicting horrific airport security lines on travelers, Trump's National Counterterrorism Center director quitting and claiming Israel snookered up into war with Iran, and the New York Times assigning 60 people to cover the Oscars.
First, they show how bad Democrats are at explaining why they've shut down the Department of Homeland Security for more than a month. While the media still try to shield the Dems from blame, when will the frustration with TSA lines and shuttering the department in the wake of four domestic terrorism incidents boil over?
Next, they react to National Counterterrorism Center Director Joe Kent stepping down and alleging that President Trump was pushed into war with Iran by Israel. Jim explains why this resignation and the accusations behind it go far beyond a typical policy disagreement.
Finally, Jim and Greg are staggered by how many personnel the New York Times devoted to covering the Oscars.
