Craig Collins is in for Greg again today for the 3 Martini Lunch. Join Jim and Craig as they laugh over Democrat's looking to model future campaigns after Zohran Mamdani's, voice concerned over the lack of fiscal considerations regarding the Big Beautiful Bill and reveal the truth about seemingly ominous program cuts at Indiana Universities. 

First, Jim and Craig are entertained by Rep. Chris Murphy's enthusiastic interest in running future Democratic campaigns in similar fashion to that of Zohran Mamdani. Jim wonders if Democrats could really be silly enough to over-interpret Mamdani getting a plurality in a relatively low-turnout Democratic NYC mayoral primary and think this is the way to win elections again.

Next, they are wary of the results passing the Big Beautiful Bill may have. It seems only to get less budget friendly as it moves through the Senate. Jim and Craig are concerned that fiscal conservatives, in hope of seeing their party's bill passed, are not being honest about the financial danger is poses. 

Finally, they are amused misleading numbers in an Indiana Public Media article which would lead readers to believe Republican policy is responsible for the 20% cut in degrees. Jim explains that it sounds ominous -- until you see how many students are affected.
