Join Jim and Greg for 3 Martini Lunch as they focus on three  crazy martinis to wrap up the week, as they tear into New York City mayoral hopeful Zohran Mamdani's rent freeze scheme and his other far-left ideas, expose Jake Tapper's ongoing excuses for his role in the Biden health cover up, and reproach Taylor Lorenz for her ugly remarks about 9/11. First, Jim and Greg groan at the economic lunacy of Zohran Mamdani as he pledges to freeze rent across New York City if elected mayor. He's also promising government-run grocery stores, “free” child care, and free bus rides — all paid for by hiking taxes on “the rich.”Next, they harangue Jake Tapper for claiming he could not have done anything else to reveal the mental decline of Biden. Instead, Tapper blames it on the Biden family for pretending like nothing was wrong. Jim and Greg wonder how Tapper can act so innocent when the public has known for a long time about the incompetence of the former president. Finally, they fume over the audacity of disturbed journalist Taylor Lorenz for suggesting 9/11 is treated as a joke by younger generations and people even have parties to mock it. Jim is baffled that after demonstrating her paranoia over masking and praising accused murderer Luigi Mangione, Lorenz believes she should be taken seriously. Her claims that 9/11 is a punchline is horrifying and further plummets her credibility as a journalist.Please visit our sponsors:Fatty15 is on a mission to help you live healthier, longer.  Get an additional 15% off their 90-day subscription Starter Kit by going to https://Fatty15.com/3ML and use code 3ML at checkout. Cut through political bias with Ground News's Vantage Plan—visit https://GroundNews.com/MARTINI to get 40% off for a limited time!It's free, online, and easy to start—no strings attached.

Chris Cuomo breaks down why the long-term impact of Trump's trade policies and tariff tactics remains widely misunderstood. He argues that the real consequences of Trump's economic moves haven't even started yet — and that both media and political leaders are pretending otherwise. From supply chain shifts to small business strain and rising consumer costs, Cuomo warns that chaos in the global marketplace doesn't equal progress. He challenges the populist narrative by asking why ordinary Americans are told to sacrifice while the ultra-rich continue accumulating more. With inflation, borrowing, and investment uncertainty looming, Cuomo pushes for a deeper look at who really wins under “America First” economics. Later in the episode, Kirk Elliott, Ph.D. (Owner and Founder, Kirk Elliott Precious Metals) joins the show to discuss how investors can protect themselves and adapt in the face of mounting economic uncertainty.

Join Jim and Greg for the 3 Martini Lunch as they highlight the Democrats' clumsy attempts to woo Gen Z men, the horrible records of leading NYC mayoral candidates towards the city's Jewish population, and Senate Democrats refusing to apologize for demonizing Special Counsel Robert Hur.First, Jim and Greg have a good laugh over reports that Democrats are spending millions trying to win back young men—especially after Gen Z males swung Republican more than expected in 2024. But instead of rethinking policies, Democrats are focusing on tone and messaging. Jim floats the idea of launching his own Gen Z initiative, mainly to fleece naive Democrat donors.Next, they slam the dismal choices facing New York City in the mayoral race, as Democrats with lousy records toward Jewish residents lead the pack. Jim and Greg discuss former GOP New York Lt. Gov. Betsy McCaughey's warnings about Andrew Cuomo's empty promises and Zohran Mamdani's poorly concealed hostility, leaving Jewish New Yorkers with little reason for optimism.Finally, they shake their heads in amusement as Democrat Senators Tina Smith and Tim Kaine say they will not apologize to former Special Counsel Robert Hur for publicly trashing him last year after Hur referred to President Biden as an elderly man with a poor memory. Even with the audio clearly vindicating Hur, the Democrats stand by their vicious statements.Please visit our great sponsors:Cut through political bias with Ground News's Vantage Plan—visit https://GroundNews.com/MARTINI to get 40% off for a limited time!It's free, online, and easy to start—no strings attached.

Former Governor and mayoral hopeful Andrew Cuomo and Jeanine Pirro have a long, combative history. Now, The New York Times reports that Pirro, recently appointed to lead the U.S. Attorney's Office in Washington D.C., is overseeing a criminal investigation into Cuomo's congressional testimony about his handling of COVID in nursing homes. WNYC's Samantha Max explores their political rivalry and what it could mean for the case.

Judge Jeanine Pirro is TAKING CHARGE. Now serving as D.C. District Attorney, she’s leading a powerful new DOJ investigation into Andrew Cuomo’s alleged COVID nursing home cover-up. The walls may finally be closing in on the former New York Governor.Meanwhile, powerhouse attorney Alina Habba isn’t done yet—she’s reportedly preparing more legal action against Democrats accused of obstructing law enforcement at the New Jersey ICE facility. Another Democrat Rep is now meeting with Habba today over possible charges.And Letitia James? She’s on defense. Caught trying to explain away her alleged mortgage fraud, the New York AG was grilled last night—just as President Trump dropped new bombshell comments about her.All this and more in today’s LIVE edition of The Trish Regan Show.

Join Jim and Greg for Friday's 3 Martini Lunch as they dissect Chuck Schumer's dramatic flip-flop on immigration, Trump's latest tariff threats against Apple and the European Union, and Andrew Cuomo's surprising critique of the far left in his bid to run New York City.First, they highlight Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer's complete reversal from his previous position on illegal immigration. Recently, Schumer said he wants to see all illegals become citizens. In 2009, he blasted illegal immigration, said we need to stop it, and even insisted on calling them illegal aliens instead of undocumented workers. It's clear proof that the far left wing of the Democrats is driving the party.Next, they brace for impact as President Trump calls for a 50 percent tariff on products from the European Union and a 25 percent tariff on Apple for iPhones sold in the U.S. that are not made here. Jim notes the volatility such proposals inject into the markets, warning that economic uncertainty from abrupt policy changes could have serious consequences.Finally, they find themselves in the strange position of agreeing with Andrew Cuomo about the far left leading deep blue areas into disastrous policies and consequences. His shift comes as the biggest threats to Cuomo in the NYC mayoral primary come from his political left. But can Cuomo really make this argument with any credibility after how he ran the state for more than a decade?Please visit our great sponsors:If I needed to find a doctor quickly, Zocdoc is what I'd use.

Andrew Cuomo is under criminal investigation. The Justice Department is examining whether the former governor - and current mayoral frontrunner - made false statements to Congress regarding the state's response to the COVID-19 pandemic. NY1 investigative reporter Courtney Gross, political reporter Bobby Cuza and statehouse reporter Bernadette Hogan break down whether this development propels or harms Cuomo's candidacy. After that, the “Off Topic” team continues their series profiling Democratic mayoral hopefuls. This week, they focus on Zohran Mamdani, the Queens assemblymember whose grassroots campaign has stunned political insiders. With over 18,000 individual donors and a solid second-place position in recent polls, what's fueling Mamdani's momentum? Leave a message: 212-379-3440 Email: yourstoryny1@charter.com

The Associated Press is reporting that former New York Governor Andrew Cuomo is under federal investigation for allegedly lying to Congress about his administration's pandemic response. Meanwhile, Memorial Day weekend travel is expected to cause major delays on roads and at airports across the region. Also, the Knicks will try to even their series against the Indiana Pacers tonight at Madison Square Garden in Game 2 of the Eastern Conference Finals. Plus, this week's transit updates include Amtrak construction on the first of its two East River tunnels, a proposed 34th Street busway, and Mayor Adams' $400 million plan to redesign part of Fifth Avenue.

A 2021 Department of Justice investigation concluded that former Governor Andrew Cuomo sexually harassed 13 women, fostering a toxic workplace culture defined by power abuse, intimidation, and retaliation. In 2020, Lindsey Boylan did something brave and necessary. After years of working under former New York Governor Andrew Cuomo, she became the first woman to publicly accuse him of sexual harassment. Her voice cracked the silence, and eventually, 13 women in total came forward as part of a Department of Justice investigation that began under the Biden administration. That courage forced Cuomo to resign, but now he's back, eyeing one of the most powerful posts in the resistance to Trump: New York City Mayor. Boylan's story is a warning. She worked closely with Cuomo from 2015 to 2018, first as the Chief of Staff at Empire State Development and later as Deputy Secretary for Economic Development. She resigned when the environment became, in her words, “more and more toxic.” When media reports floated Cuomo possibly joining the Biden administration as Attorney General, Boylan took to Twitter, risking everything to speak out. And now? Just last week, in the middle of the NYC mayoral primary, Cuomo flirted with a female radio host on air, asking her out on a date. That's Cuomo gloating that even he can stage a comeback, like Trump, after costing taxpayers tens of millions of dollars in legal bills fighting sexual harrassment claims. America cannot afford a sexual predator in the White House and in charge of one of our biggest cities, especially with activists, immigrants, and real journalists increasingly vulnerable to MAGA's creeping fascism. Share this interview with voters you may know in NYC. And New Yorkers, the mayor's race matters. Use ranked-choice voting wisely: do not rank Cuomo at all. Want to enjoy Gaslit Nation ad-free?

Chris Cuomo examines the media response to President Biden's cognitive decline and recent cancer diagnosis, arguing that the real scandal isn't a cover-up—it's that the truth was plainly visible all along. Citing Biden's long-known history of brain aneurysms, age-related decline, and now prostate cancer, Cuomo pushes back on the idea that these developments were hidden or suppressed. Instead, Cuomo claims the media deliberately chose to downplay Biden's condition to help him defeat Trump in 2020 and beyond. He argues that this isn't a conspiracy—it's worse: a decision rooted in political preference, not journalistic integrity. Cuomo says what happened wasn't secrecy, but strategic silence.

Today's Headlines: Representative Gerry Connolly of Virginia passed away at 75 from esophageal cancer, just weeks after announcing he would not seek re-election and being named the top Democrat on the House Oversight Committee. Meanwhile, President Trump hosted South African President Cyril Ramaphosa, derailing trade discussions by screening a video alleging a white genocide in South Africa—claims Ramaphosa rejected. This comes as the administration continues to deport refugees from numerous countries while welcoming white Afrikaners. Separately, the DOJ has launched a criminal investigation into Andrew Cuomo over his COVID-era decisions as governor, raising suspicions of political motives ahead of his likely NYC mayoral bid against Eric Adams, whose own federal charges were recently dropped. The DOJ also announced it will dismiss police reform consent decrees in Louisville and Minneapolis and rescind earlier findings against the Phoenix Police Department, effectively reversing major civil rights investigations. Finally, a federal judge found the Trump administration in violation of a court order after it deported migrants—most not from South Sudan—to South Sudan, only for the flight to be rerouted to Djibouti, again without legal basis.

In a milestone episode of The Daily Herold, Jon Herold welcomes special guest VA Secretary Doug Collins, marking the show's first sit-down with a Trump cabinet official. Collins offers a candid look at the challenges of reforming the Department of Veterans Affairs, including widespread bureaucratic waste, contractor overreach, and union-protected inefficiencies. He addresses the media's misleading claims about budget “cuts,” emphasizing that Trump's proposed VA budget actually increases funding while slashing misused resources to prioritize real patient care. The conversation dives deep into broader constitutional dysfunction, as Collins critiques Congress's failure to legislate, the judiciary's national injunction abuse, and the difficulty of governing when the executive branch is isolated by coordinated opposition from other institutions and the media. Collins also confirms the VA is actively exploring alternative treatments like cannabis and psychedelics for PTSD and brain injury, offering cautious optimism for innovation in veteran care. Herold rounds out the show with segments on Trump's “Golden Dome” missile defense initiative, Senator Rubio's surprising reformist stance, the Biden administration's mounting narrative collapse, and the DOJ's investigation into Cuomo. It's an unfiltered, insight-packed episode for anyone interested in real reform, from the VA to the Constitution itself.

When you think about great political comebacks, maybe you think of Donald Trump, or Richard Nixon, or “comeback kid” Bill Clinton. You might soon add Andrew Cuomo to that list. In 2020, Cuomo was at the top of the world. He had been governor of New York for a decade. He had an illustrious career in New York politics—which is sort of the Cuomo family business. He learned how the state worked from his father, three-term Democratic governor Mario Cuomo. When COVID hit, Governor Cuomo's star just kept rising. Millions of Americans—even outside of New York—tuned into his COVID briefings, and his CNN segments with his brother, Chris Cuomo. He was “America's Governor.” On the cover of Rolling Stone. Women and men were even self-identifying as “Cuomosexual.” But then it all came crashing down. With two scandals—one personal and one political. As Covid was peaking in New York City, Andrew Cuomo was hit with a wave of allegations. In the end, state Attorney General Letitia James brought forward a report that alleged Cuomo sexually harassed 11 women. (Cuomo denies wrongdoing.) The other scandal, as many will recall, had to do with Covid—specifically, Cuomo's administration was accused of mishandling the readmission of elders who'd had Covid into nursing homes, and many alleged that he misrepresented the nursing home death count. The governor disputes that, as you'll hear today. By August 2021, Cuomo announced his resignation. His political career appeared to be over. For a time, he totally disappeared from public life. He went from having an audience of 59 million tuning into his Covid briefings to zero. But today, in May of 2025, the picture is dramatically different. Andrew Cuomo is now the front-runner to be the next mayor of New York City. Among Democrats—the party that tore him down—he has a commanding lead, polling at around 37 percent ahead of next month's primary. His closest competitor, 33-year-old socialist state Assemblyman Zohran Mamdani, is hovering around 18 percent, according to a Marist Marist poll from just last week. So, what is it about Andrew Cuomo? Will New York choose Andrew Cuomo again? And if so, why? What does that say about the state of the city and our political choices? And why does he want the job of mayor at all? Today on Honestly, Bari asks former governor Andrew Cuomo about all of it—Covid and the harassment allegations, but also his vision for New York City, addressing public safety and affordability, his thoughts on school choice, Eric Adams's tenure, the state of the Democratic Party, Donald Trump, illegal immigrants in New York City, Zohran Mamdani, and his plan for getting NYC back on track.

Terry McAuliffe (72nd Governor of Virginia and former chairman, Democratic National Committee) joins Chris Cuomo to assess the state of the Democratic Party and what went wrong in the 2024 election. From failing to connect on core issues like inflation, immigration, and working-class economic anxiety, to misreading the appeal of culture war politics and populist messaging, McAuliffe lays out why Democrats are struggling — and what needs to change. He and Cuomo debate the party's messaging strategy, Kamala Harris's political positioning, and whether MAGA's success stems from Trump's policies or his symbolic power as a disruptor. McAuliffe also shares his experience on the front lines in Ukraine and weighs in on what the party must do to win back Congress and move forward after Biden.

Time's running awfully short for Zohran Mamdani to turn momentum into position, Adrienne Adams to ignite or anyone else to catch up with Andrew Cuomo, who's happy to stay out of the fray, keep unscripted interactions with voters let along other candidates to a minimum and other otherwise trust, like Eric Adams did four years ago, that even Democratic primary voters are more conservative than most of the party's candidates. Christina Greer, Katie Honan and Harry Siegel discuss all that and much more, including Albany's arrogance, The Wizard of Oz and The Wiz, and how the hipster burnt his tongue.

In part two of our miniseries on Andrew Cuomo's record as Governor of New York, we examine his policy record over his ten-and-a-half-year tenure (January 2011-August 2021). Jon Campbell, a longtime state politics reporter now with WNYC/Gothamist, joined the show to recount and examine Cuomo's policy record over the course of his nearly three terms as the state's chief executive and put it into the context of Cuomo's 2025 bid to become Mayor of New York City. This is the second in a series of Max Politics episodes that will examine Cuomo's record as Governor and bid to become Mayor — the first episode focused on Cuomo's leadership and governance style. Cuomo has been invited to appear on the show himself but has yet to accept the invitation. Stay tuned for other episodes in this series and additional conversations on the 2025 NYC elections. (Ep 499)

New York City's mayoral race is heating up, and into the inferno walks Brad Lander: City Comptroller, longtime progressive pain in the ass (in the best way), and, most importantly, not a corrupt tool of the oligarchy. That alone is refreshing. Lander's running on a revolutionary NYC platform: competence, decency, and not being Eric Adams, Andrew Cuomo, or a trash fire named Donald Trump. He's spent his career backing tenants, workers, and immigrants, including showing up at an ICE facility to demand Newark mayor Ras Baraka's release. On Gaslit Nation, Lander made it clear: he's not here to play nice with predators in power. He's here to break the cycle of corruption, fight for working people, and stop ICE from turning Rikers Island into Guantanamo East. On climate? “Climate risk is financial risk,” Lander says. His plan includes rooftop solar, ensuring net-zero emissions by 2040, and preventing your apartment from becoming a boiling deathtrap during the next heat wave. (Remember Cuomo leaving people to die in nursing homes?) As the feds abandon us under Trump and Musk, someone's got to step up. Lander wants to expand the Department of Consumer and Worker Protection. And for non-New Yorkers: NYC's mayor matters nationally. This is a frontline job against elite impunity and rising autocracy. We need Lander to help rebuild democracy. Want to protect New York, and the country, from grifters like Adams and Cuomo? Use ranked-choice voting, ranking Lander #1. Then rank all the other progressives endorsed by the Working Families Party. Do not put Cuomo on your ballot. He already resigned after using his power to prey on women. Don't make us go through that again. Go to landerfornyc.com and help make New York City safer and stronger, for the sake of its residents and all of America. Share this interview with the New Yorkers in your life to help stop Cuomo and elect Lander New York City's next mayor.  Want to enjoy Gaslit Nation ad-free?

Chris Cuomo reacts to Donald Trump's decision to accept the use of a luxury jet from Qatar, calling it the clearest proof yet that Trump's populist image is a lie. He explains why this isn't just about optics or foreign influence—it's a symbol of how power protects itself, and how the very figure meant to “drain the swamp” is embracing the perks of the establishment. From presidential ethics loopholes to foreign access, Cuomo breaks down how this one gesture reveals everything about who benefits from the system, who gets left behind, and why outrage only flows in one direction depending on whose team you're on.

In our first segment, we speak with democratic socialist State Senator Jabari Brisport of Brooklyn about the recently approved $254 billion-dollar New York State budget which was passed 38 days after its April 1 deadline. We talk with Brisport about the good and the bad of the new budget and why he ultimately voted against it. We will also talk about the convoluted process that led to the final agreement and the Governor's outsized role in causing the delay. In the second half of the show, we talk about former governor Andrew Cuomo, who is now the frontrunner in the New York City mayoral race.

Chris Cuomo responds to Donald Trump's remark that “maybe a kid can have just two dolls, not 20” and says the message isn't wrong—it's just aimed at the wrong people. Instead of telling working families to cut back, Cuomo argues, Trump should be speaking to the billionaires and corporate class who've grown wealthier by shifting burden onto everyone else. He breaks down how capitalism without responsibility has hollowed out the middle class, why economic burden is falling on the wrong side of the system, and how Trump's populist message continues to resonate—despite missing the real target.

Chris Cuomo unpacks the backlash against Senator John Fetterman and argues that Democrats are undermining their own by prioritizing ideological purity over pragmatic progress. Responding to a harsh New York Magazine article, featuring quotes from Fetterman's former chief of staff and anonymous party sources, Cuomo criticizes the renewed questioning of Fetterman's mental fitness and says the attacks are less about policy failure than about his willingness to support Israel and work with Republicans on immigration and trade. He defends Fetterman's “progressive pragmatism” as a path Democrats should embrace and warns that the party risks losing the majority by turning on those trying to deliver real results.

Jake Barber and James Fowler (Co-Founders, Skywatcher Technologies) join Chris Cuomo to share their firsthand experiences tracking unidentified aerial phenomena (UAPs) and sounding the alarm on what they say is a major failure of U.S. transparency. The pair describe how their privately run “Skywatcher” system can detect UAPs that evade conventional detection—and why they believe the government has failed to acknowledge red (adversarial) and “other” (unknown) incursions into U.S. airspace. Chris pushes them on whether this is a national security crisis, a government cover-up, or a new era of misunderstood physics—and asks what it'll take to get the public and policymakers to finally care.
