Tim Walz Compares Criminal Illegals to Anne Frank

Tim Walz Compares Criminal Illegals to Anne Frank

Author: Jim Geraghty & Greg Corombos – Political Humor Commentary January 26, 2026 Duration: 27:59
Join Jim and Greg on the Monday 3 Martini Lunch as they break down Saturday’s fatal Minnesota shooting involving federal immigration agents & President Trump’s frustration with the Homeland Security response, Gov. Tim Walz making everything worse by comparing immigration officials to the Nazis, and the despicable Slate attack on Second Lady Usha Vance.

First, they piece together the facts surrounding the Customs and Border Protection-involved shooting of anti-ICE protester Alex Pretti in Minneapolis and some of the bad decisions Pretti made that morning. They also highlight clearly incorrect statements from Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem that ascribed sinister motives to Pretti. President Trump appears unhappy with het response and is putting Border Czar Tom Homan in charge of the operation.

Next, they unload on Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz for comparing illegal immigrants fearing arrest and deportation by immigration officials to Anne Frank hiding from the Nazis. Jim and Greg argue this reckless and historically ignorant comparison only inflames tensions by equating lawful federal agents with history’s greatest monsters.

Finally, they hammer a Slate author for her ugly, unhinged essay ripping Second Lady Usha Vance for having another baby with Vice President JD Vance. Jim comments on the unhealthy obsession many seem to have with the Vance marriage and other high-profile political couples.

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.
