Summary

Former Chief Assistant U.S. Attorney and National Review Contributing Editor Andy McCarthy joins Greg for today’s 3 Martini Lunch. They break down Senate Democrats blocking a ban on males in women's sports, Andy’s argument that Trump is most to blame for the Oval Office confrontation with Zelensky, and Andrew Cuomo’s political comeback as he runs for mayor of New York City.

First, they highlight how every Senate Democrat voted against legislation barring men from competing in women’s sports, preventing the bill from advancing. They explain why Democrats refuse to change course, even as they keep handing Republicans a potent campaign issue.

Next, Andy asserts that the biggest problem in Friday’s heated Oval Office exchange was Trump himself—allowing the photo-op to drag on, failing to grasp the Russian threat, and positioning himself as neutral between Russia and Ukraine. He also argues against the type of war resolution Trump appears to support.

Finally, they react as disgraced former New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo officially launches his mayoral bid. While Cuomo correctly identifies many of New York City’s biggest issues, Andy reminds listeners that Cuomo’s own policies are largely responsible for the city’s decline.

0:38.1	morning jill today. Turns out he wasn't in Ukraine the whole time. It decided another war zone was
0:42.9	worth visiting before he came home anyway. I wouldn't call him a war monger exactly, but he's

1:00.6	Andy, we've got lots today.
1:03.6	I'm not sure any of it's good, but some of it's nuanced.
1:04.8	So let's just dive right in.
1:09.3	First of all, the Senate yesterday had a chance for a layup.
1:12.7	This issue already passed the House, largely along party lines.
1:19.9	But yesterday, the Senate voted 51 to 49 to restrict males from women's sports.
1:28.5	That would seem to be good news, but on legislation in the U.S. Senate, you need 60 votes to cut off debate, move to a final vote, which would be a simple majority. They didn't get to 60 votes. So Democrats keep stepping on this 80-20 rake. They
