Summary
First, they get a kick out of Kamala Harris struggling mightily to answer very basic questions from MSNBC's Stephanie Ruhle. Harris seemed to have no insights on tariffs or what she would do if Congress didn't pass a corporate tax increase if she were elected. She also delivered another notorious word salad. Jim and Greg debate whether her poor performance is due to incompetence or an attempt to conceal her radical agenda.
Next, they react to New York City Mayor Eric Adams’ federal indictment for allegedly taking bribes from Turkish officials to expedite a questionable construction project. They discuss the implosion of Adams’ administration, whether his criticism of the migrant crisis played a role in the indictment, and the disgraced figure who may be eyeing a political comeback.
Finally, they debunk President Biden’s claim that his decision to step down in July was a selfless move for the good of the nation. Jim and Greg argue that Biden’s narrative, presented during his U.N. speech and appearance on The View, overlooks pressure from top Democrats pushing him out of the 2024 race.

| 0:22.0 | although it's a little bit crazy that we get |
| 0:24.1 | answers like this from someone who's on the brink potentially of becoming the next |
| 0:27.8 | president of the United States. The second one's definitely bad and the third one's |
| 0:31.1 | definitely crazy. So Jim let's dive right |
| 0:33.7 | in yesterday we talked about how Stephanie rule of MS NBC was essentially |
| 0:37.1 | rewarded by the Harris campaign for carrying a lot of water for Kamala Harris on the |
| 0:41.4 | Bill Marsh show last Friday night saying oh you don't need |
| 0:44.8 | her detailed answers or policy prescriptions all you need to know is that Donald Trump is her opponent |
| 0:50.0 | and he's a big threat to democracy and so you know this isn't nirvana and we don't live in that |
| 0:55.5 | neighborhood and all that so surprisingly Stephanie Ruhl gets an interview with |
| 0:59.2 | Kamala Harris I would say the questions were a little more challenging than I expected, but it basically |
| 1:05.2 | teed her up to say whatever she wanted and had already pre-programmed on a number of issues. |
| 1:09.9 | There's a lot of clips we could use to focus on Kamala's word salad today, but even under these |
| 1:14.7 | friendly circumstances, mostly friendly circumstances, Kamala Harris still struggling mightily. |
| 1:20.8 | For example, Stephanie Ruhl asking, you know, you got all these ideas |
