Al Qaeda-Linked Democrat Running for Congress in New Jersey

Al Qaeda-Linked Democrat Running for Congress in New Jersey

Author: Jim Geraghty & Greg Corombos – Political Humor Commentary May 28, 2026 Duration: 25:21
Join Jim and Greg for the Thursday 3 Martini Lunch as they skewer former First Lady Jill Biden over her obvious lies about Joe Biden's condition in 2024, New York Gov. Kathy Hochul's failed attempt to dunk on President Trump, a Democrat with ties to Al Qaeda running for Congress, and Virginia Democrats postponing their congressional campaigns.

First, Jim and Greg hammer Jill Biden after her CBS News interview in which she claimed she thought President Joe Biden was having a stroke during his 2024 debate against President Trump. She also insisted she had never seen Biden in that condition before or after that night. Jim and Greg call out her lies as Mrs. Biden pushes her new book.

Next, they laugh as Gov. Hochul gets embarrassed by her attempt to get in a petty jab at President Trump over the New York Knicks. Trump said he was excited to see the Knicks back in the NBA Finals and calls himself a lifelong fan of the team. Hochul tried to challenge that assertion and it backfired big time. Jim and Greg have a lot of fun correcting the record.

Then, they spotlight New Jersey congressional candidate Adam Hamawy, a Democrat who reportedly interned for the “charitable” arm of Al Qaeda during the 1990s. Jim and Greg react to the controversy and wonder whether Democratic Party standards have fallen so low that they'll even vote for this guy.

Finally, they have fun noting several Virginia Democrats are quietly ending their congressional campaigns now that this year's elections will be held under the existing congressional map and not the egregiously gerrymandered map struck down earlier this month by the Virginia Supreme Court.

Each day can feel like a barrage of headlines, a chaotic mix of the serious and the absurd. That’s where 3 Martini Lunch-Political Humor & Commentary comes in. Hosts Jim Geraghty of National Review and Greg Corombos have built a following by sorting through the noise with a specific, effective ritual. They serve up the day’s events in three distinct parts they call "martinis": one for the genuinely good news, another for the frustratingly bad, and a final one reserved for the utterly crazy stories that defy belief. What you’ll hear in this podcast is a conversation that feels like sitting with two well-informed friends who aren’t afraid to be sharp, witty, or blunt. They analyze politics and culture with a perspective that cuts through partisan talking points, aiming for clarity and, often, a much-needed laugh. The pace is brisk and designed for a commute or a lunch break, but the commentary is substantial. Tuning into this podcast means getting a digest of what matters, framed with humor and insight that makes the whirlwind of news actually digestible. It’s a daily check-in that manages to be both smart and consistently entertaining, providing a structured way to understand the world without losing your sanity in the process.
