Florida’s New Dem Senate Nominee Goes Off the Rails

Florida’s New Dem Senate Nominee Goes Off the Rails

Author: Jim Geraghty & Greg Corombos – Political Humor Commentary August 21, 2026 Duration: 28:04
Join Jim and Greg for the Friday 3 Martini Lunch as they consider Mike Rogers finding plenty of Democrats to endorse him publicly in the Michigan Senate race, Florida Democrat/Socialist Senate nominee Angie Nixon saying Republicans are trying to kill black people, the U.S. Navy reportedly considering removing the name of a World War II hero from a forthcoming aircraft carrier and possibly renaming it for President Trump, and California finally counting a lot more votes in a special congressional election.

First, they applaud Michigan GOP Senate nominee Mike Rogers for aggressively reaching out to Democrats who feel uneasy about the far-left agenda Abdul El-Sayed would bring to the U.S. Senate. 

Next, they reveal a whole lot more about Florida Democratic U.S. Senate nominee Angie Nixon. In multiple interviews that have emerged since her surprising win on Tuesday, Nixon claims Republicans want to kill black people. She also contends Congress has plenty of money for government-run health care.

Then, they discuss the U.S. Navy reportedly considering whether to remove Pearl Harbor hero Doris Miller's name from a future aircraft carrier. The same reports also say some in the Navy want to rename it after President Trump. Jim contends no sitting president should have a carrier named for him and removing Miller's name would be seen as an insult.

Finally, they give a golf clap to California election officials for managing to count enough votes to determine a winner in a California congressional election within 48 hours.

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.
