3 Martini Lunch

Today, Undisputed King of Stuff and Discourse Magazine & Arizona Republic contributor Jon Gabriel is in for Jim today. Jon and Greg discuss the mighty fall of New York Rep. Jamaal Bowman, the Supreme Court's decision in favor of the Biden administration on social media censorship, and Wisconsin Sen. Tammy Baldwin's bizarre attack ad on challenger Eric Hovde.
First, they applaud the voters of New York's 16th congressional district for their round rejection of Rep. Jamaal Bowman's re-election bid, as he lost by a gaping 17-point margin. They remark that it is delicious to see Bowman get his just desserts for his childish fire alarm stunt and, more importantly, for his vile anti-Semitic rhetoric.
Next, they lament the Supreme Court's disappointing decision on Murthy v. Missouri, which challenged the federal government's role in social media censorship. The court decided in favor of the Biden administration, ruling that the plaintiffs did not have sufficient standing.
Finally, they attempt to make sense of Wisconsin Sen. Tammy Baldwin's illogical attack ad on likely GOP opponent Eric Hovde because of his support for higher insurance rates when one is obese. Jon and Greg point out that everyone with significant health risks faces higher insurance premiums, and there is no logical reason to make obesity an exception.
