Republican Ads Hammer Democrats Over Torturous TSA Lines

Republican Ads Hammer Democrats Over Torturous TSA Lines

Author: Jim Geraghty & Greg Corombos – Political Humor Commentary March 23, 2026 Duration: 28:56
Join Jim and Greg for the Monday 3 Martini Lunch as they break down New York Gov. Kathy Hochul’s newest political regret, Republicans blasting Democrats over failing to fund TSA and the Department of Homeland Security, and President Trump saying he was glad former FBI director and Russia special counsel Robert Mueller is dead.

First, they are thoroughly enjoying Gov. Hochul's regret tour. Last week, she lamented the exit of many rich people from the state over high taxes. Now she's begging the state legislature for help because the bill from the Dems' unrealistic climate legislation from a few years ago is coming due.

Next, they applaud the National Republican Congressional Committee for launching an ad campaign correctly blaming the Democrats for defunding the Department of Homeland Security and making your trip through airport security a nightmare in many cities.

Finally, they react to President Trump saying he is glad Mueller is dead. Jim and Greg also think back through the Russia investigation and why that episode is key to the presidents comments and those from people responding to him.

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.
