Joe Kent Says He’d Defend Charlie Kirk Assassin in Court

Joe Kent Says He’d Defend Charlie Kirk Assassin in Court

Author: Jim Geraghty & Greg Corombos – Political Humor Commentary March 25, 2026 Duration: 27:00
Join Jim and Greg for the Wednesday 3 Martini Lunch as they break down Senate Democrats rejecting an overly generous Republican offer to fund the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), Joe Kent’s offering to testify for the defense in the Charlie Kirk murder case, and escalating chaos in California’s Democratic gubernatorial race.

First, they highlight Senate Republicans making the absurd concession of agreeing not to fund ICE’s deportation office in exchange for funding the rest of DHS. Even so, Senate Democrats are refusing the deal. Jim explains what this rejection reveals about the Dems' disturbing mindset.

Next, they react with disbelief as former National Counterterrorism Center Director Joe Kent claims the FBI blocked his investigation into Charlie Kirk’s assassination and now says he is willing to testify in defense of the accused killer. Jim and Greg weigh in on the unhinged, conspiracy-minded podcast hosts and what this tells us about Kent in particular.

Finally, they have some fun with the dysfunction in California’s governor race after a planned debate was canceled due to controversy over which Democratic candidates were invited. Plus, the ones invited were all white and none of the ones left out were white. Jim and Greg sift through the incredibly pathetic field on the left and how they're playing identity politics against one another.

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.
