  Speaker 1: Pat Gray is here on the Blaze Radio Network.
• 0:14
  Speaker 2: Here's something I was thinking about on the way in
• 0:16
  Speaker 2: this morning. Just a good safety tip for you. Don't
• 0:22
  Speaker 2: go chasing waterfalls. Please stick to the rivers and the
• 0:28
  Speaker 2: lakes that you're used to. Just for what it's worth,
• 0:33
  Speaker 2: I hope that helps. But it just hit me on
• 0:38
  Speaker 2: the way in, and so I wanted to share that
• 0:39
  Speaker 2: with you.
• 0:40
  Speaker 3: Were you moving too fast?
• 0:41
  Speaker 2: I might have been. Yeah, I might have been. And
• 0:43
  Speaker 2: that's why that occurred to me.
• 0:45
  Speaker 3: I'm not sure.
• 0:46
  Speaker 2: But just a little bit of inspiration there that I
• 0:49
  Speaker 2: thought it was my responsibility to share with everybody.
• 0:53
  Speaker 3: And so now I have. That's nice.
• 0:55
  Speaker 2: So now I have. Which is silly because we've got
• 0:57
  Speaker 2: a billion things to talk about today. Like a billion.
• 1:02
  Speaker 2: There's so much going on. I don't even know where
• 1:05
  Speaker 2: to start.
• 1:05
  Speaker 3: It's overwhelming. It really is.
• 1:07
  Speaker 2: It just is. I mean, we've got these Senate races
• 1:12
  Speaker 2: all across the country that are so critical.
• 1:15
  Speaker 3: And they're all in peril.
• 1:18
  Speaker 4: Yes, they are.
• 1:19
  Speaker 3: Ugh.
• 1:21
  Speaker 5: Uh.
• 1:21
  Speaker 2: Recently, I don't know if it was yesterday, but James
• 1:24
  Speaker 2: Tallarico was asked about his favorite drag queen.
• 1:30
  Speaker 4: He was out shaking hands at some event, and somebody
• 1:34
  Speaker 4: tried to catch him in a thing. Hey, what's your
• 1:37
  Speaker 4: favorite drag queen? Now, I will say that off the
• 1:40
  Speaker 4: top of your head, if you met someone. Watch this.
• 1:43
  Speaker 6: Cut to.
• 1:46
  Speaker 5: Mr.
• 1:47
  Speaker 3: Tallarico, so nice to meet you. Sorry, I broke my head.
• 1:49
  Speaker 7: I was there when you defended the drag.
• 1:51
  Speaker 3: Who's your favorite drag queen in Texas? Oh, my God.
• 1:53
  Speaker 3: Probably Alyssa Edwards.
• 1:54
  Speaker 8: Alyssa Edwards?
• 1:55
  Speaker 3: I love Marky Mays.
• 1:56
  Speaker 1: Thank you so much.
• 1:57
  Speaker 3: He knew that quickly. Okay. I couldn't name a drag
• 2:00
  Speaker 3: queen in Texas.
• 2:02
  Speaker 5: No.
• 2:02
  Speaker 3: Well, I mean.
• 2:03
  Speaker 2: You could name... RuPaul. RuPaul. Anybody can... RuPaul's been around
• 2:08
  Speaker 2: for 200 years.
• 2:09
  Speaker 3: He's the one.
• 2:10
  Speaker 2: But could you name another one?
• 2:13
  Speaker 3: I couldn't.
• 2:13
  Speaker 2: No. Not if my life depends on it.
• 2:15
  Speaker 3: David Robles. David Robles.
• 2:17
  Speaker 2: David Robles.
• 2:18
  Speaker 3: My uncle.
• 2:20
  Speaker 2: He's a drag queen?
• 2:21
  Speaker 3: Yes.
• 2:22
  Speaker 2: Really?
• 2:22
  Speaker 3: So that's true.
• 2:23
  Speaker 2: Congratulations. Your family must be proud.
• 2:24
  Speaker 3: Oh, they're not proud. Yeah, they're not? They're not proud.
• 2:26
  Speaker 5: Oh, wow.
• 2:27
  Speaker 3: That's why he's shunned to Puerto Rico. We don't speak
• 2:30
  Speaker 3: of him.
• 2:31
  Speaker 9: Oh, wow.
• 2:32
  Speaker 3: Wow. Well, you just did. So I bet your family
• 2:35
  Speaker 3: appreciates that.
• 2:35
  Speaker 9: I'm not deadnaming him because that's not his real name.
• 2:38
  Speaker 5: Oh.
• 2:38
  Speaker 3: He goes by Sikone. Sikone Robles. Sikone Robles.
• 2:42
  Speaker 10: Hey.
• 2:42
  Speaker 6: It's beautiful.
• 2:44
  Speaker 4: Does he have multiple characters that he drags?
• 2:47
  Speaker 3: He does have multiple characters, yes. Is he good at it?
• 2:49
  Speaker 3: Have you watched his routine?
• 2:51
  Speaker 2: No, he sucks.
• 2:52
  Speaker 3: No, he does?
• 2:53
  Speaker 2: So even if he were here, he wouldn't be James
• 2:55
  Speaker 2: Tallarico's favorite.
• 2:56
  Speaker 3: He would not be, no.
• 2:58
  Speaker 10: Well, the drag queen fan, James Tallarico, now has a
• 3:01
  Speaker 10: Polymarket odds of winning at 56%, his highest. Oh!
• 3:06
  Speaker 4: The latest poll had him up three. He's up three.
• 3:10
  Speaker 2: On Ken Paxton. This is a guy who can immediately
• 3:14
  Speaker 2: name his favorite Texas drag queen.
• 3:17
  Speaker 3: Make it stop.
• 3:19
  Speaker 9: And Pat, you posted all the polls yesterday on your
• 3:21
  Speaker 9: ex account. And we should have them going up. And
• 3:25
  Speaker 9: this is not good for us. This goes back from
• 3:28
  Speaker 9: June to September.
• 3:29
  Speaker 6: Yeah.
• 3:30
  Speaker 3: Okay. Tallarico. None of it looks good. Working our way
• 3:34
  Speaker 3: up the chart.
• 3:35
  Speaker 2: Sure doesn't.
• 3:36
  Speaker 3: Trends are pointing in the wrong direction.
• 3:39
  Speaker 2: Does not. Is there just a quick cursory scan? Doesn't
• 3:44
  Speaker 2: look like there's any. There was one there on August 9th, 4746, Paxton.
• 3:47
  Speaker 3: Oh, okay, yes. Okay. There's a couple of dead heats
• 3:52
  Speaker 3: up there. There's a 50-50.
• 3:54
  Speaker 11: Yeah.
• 3:54
  Speaker 3: But the most recent ones there here in September, you have,
• 3:57
  Speaker 3: what is it?
• 3:58
  Speaker 5: 50-45. 50-45, 45-43, 47-46.
• 3:58
  Speaker 3: And during that time, Tallarico was.
• 4:06
  Speaker 3: Had a great ad campaign going. Yes, he did. And
• 4:09
  Speaker 3: Paxton did not. Yes, he did. Paxton ads are appearing
• 4:12
  Speaker 3: all over the place now.
• 4:13
  Speaker 12: Yeah.
• 4:13
  Speaker 3: Next round will be better, I believe.
• 4:16
  Speaker 2: He also had a really special moment about running the world.
• 4:19
  Speaker 3: This is creepy. This is interesting. Watch this.
• 4:22
  Speaker 13: What if we ran our world like we run a
• 4:25
  Speaker 13: kindergarten classroom? Because at the end of the day, aren't
• 4:28
  Speaker 13: we all just really big kindergartners?
• 4:30
  Speaker 3: No.
• 4:32
  Speaker 2: No, we're not.
• 4:33
  Speaker 3: The world.
• 4:39
  Speaker 4: Who's he talking to there?
• 4:40
  Speaker 3: I don't know. Is he talking to a kindergarten class?
• 4:42
  Speaker 3: It doesn't matter. Jeffy, it doesn't matter.
• 4:44
  Speaker 9: I'm all for it if we get nap time. If
• 4:46
  Speaker 9: we get nap time through some form of legislation, mandatory
• 4:49
  Speaker 9: nap time.
• 4:50
  Speaker 2: Well, I think that's what he's talking about.
• 4:51
  Speaker 1: I think he is.
• 4:52
  Speaker 2: Just get a little nappy in the middle of the day,
• 4:54
  Speaker 2: and you'll be fine.
• 4:55
  Speaker 3: A little binky. Have somebody read to you. Yes. I
• 4:59
  Speaker 3: want chocolate milk today.
• 5:00
  Speaker 1: Thank you.
• 5:01
  Speaker 3: Chocolate milk is always white.
• 5:02
  Speaker 2: Play that again, because I want that to soak in
• 5:05
  Speaker 2: a little bit for Texans.
• 5:07
  Speaker 13: What if we ran our world like we run a
• 5:09
  Speaker 13: kindergarten classroom? Because at the end of the day, aren't
• 5:12
  Speaker 13: we all just really big kindergartners?
• 5:15
  Speaker 2: Again, no.
• 5:18
  Speaker 3: No, we're not.
• 5:19
  Speaker 10: But that's how Democrats look at us. As little children
• 5:22
  Speaker 10: that need shepherding and needed control.
• 5:24
  Speaker 3: As children or sheep. Get in line.
• 5:26
  Speaker 4: Cattle.
• 5:27
  Speaker 2: Something to lead and herd and tell them what to do.
• 5:30
  Speaker 4: That's tremendous.
• 5:33
  Speaker 2: This guy is... Maybe the most bizarre candidate we've ever
• 5:38
  Speaker 2: seen in a major race.
• 5:42
  Speaker 10: Wow.
• 5:43
  Speaker 2: And he's three points ahead in Texas.
• 5:47
  Speaker 3: I can't.
• 5:48
  Speaker 6: I just can't.
• 5:50
  Speaker 4: And what saves me on that is that I just
• 5:52
  Speaker 4: don't believe it. I don't believe Texas is going to
• 5:55
  Speaker 4: vote for him in the. Well, we're going.
• 5:58
  Speaker 2: To talk to Steve Dace about that because we were
• 6:00
  Speaker 2: at the event last week right after the convention. And
• 6:05
  Speaker 2: we threw like a little reception for some of the
• 6:08
  Speaker 2: people that were there afterwards. And Steve was there and
• 6:11
  Speaker 2: he was telling me that Tallarico will win. Like, I mean, no,
• 6:17
  Speaker 2: Paxton will win. That Tallarico can't beat Paxton.
• 6:21
  Speaker 12: Right.
• 6:22
  Speaker 2: And it was the certitude with which he proclaimed.
• 6:24
  Speaker 3: It that gave me some confidence and some hope. And
• 6:27
  Speaker 3: I'm like, yes, thank you.
• 6:29
  Speaker 2: From a person in Iowa looking at this from the
• 6:32
  Speaker 2: outside looking in, I appreciate that because I'm– frightened out
• 6:38
  Speaker 2: of my mind.
• 6:38
  Speaker 3: Not so confident?
• 6:39
  Speaker 2: Yeah, not quite so confident.
• 6:41
  Speaker 9: Even though he just said his favorite drag queen wants
• 6:44
  Speaker 9: us to run this as a kindergarten.
• 6:47
  Speaker 2: Even those two things have not calmed my fears.
• 6:50
  Speaker 3: Yeah, that's weird, right? He's very weird, but okay, it
• 6:54
  Speaker 3: is you.
• 6:54
  Speaker 2: So at the bottom of hour two, we're going to
• 6:56
  Speaker 2: talk to Steve about that and some other things. He's
• 6:59
  Speaker 2: a big Michigan fan. It might be fun to talk
• 7:01
  Speaker 2: to him a little bit about college football. But the
• 7:04
  Speaker 2: Tallarico-Paxton race, I mean.
• 7:09
  Speaker 2: Never seen anything like it.
• 7:11
  Speaker 3: I know.
• 7:11
  Speaker 2: With somebody this extreme in Texas, which is supposed to be,
• 7:16
  Speaker 2: you know, a bastion of conservatism.
• 7:19
  Speaker 3: Uh-huh.
• 7:20
  Speaker 2: Not so much right now.
• 7:21
  Speaker 10: It wasn't that long ago that many were saying, if
• 7:24
  Speaker 10: Texas falls, we've lost the country.
• 7:26
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 7:26
  Speaker 10: Are we still prepared to hold to that in a
• 7:28
  Speaker 10: couple months if Tallarico pulls this out?
• 7:30
  Speaker 11: No.
• 7:31
  Speaker 9: Okay.
• 7:31
  Speaker 6: No.
• 7:31
  Speaker 3: No.
• 7:33
  Speaker 2: Nah, if Texas falls, that's fine. We can withstand anything.
• 7:36
  Speaker 2: That's my new thing.
• 7:38
  Speaker 3: Come and take it.
• 7:39
  Speaker 2: It's just one state.
• 7:42
  Speaker 14: What are you talking about?
• 7:46
  Speaker 3: There's 46 other states. If we lose Texas, there's 46
• 7:48
  Speaker 3: other states.
• 7:49
  Speaker 2: 46 others. Thank you, Barack Obama. I think there's 56 others.
• 7:54
  Speaker 10: I knew where you were going with that.
• 7:58
  Speaker 2: Redo the math there, but good. That's a good callback
• 8:01
  Speaker 2: on that. So this guy is just so frighteningly dangerous.
• 8:07
  Speaker 2: And he shouldn't be because, I mean, Texans and Christians
• 8:11
  Speaker 2: should be able to recognize that this guy is completely
• 8:16
  Speaker 2: extreme and bizarre and out to lunch. And every time
• 8:22
  Speaker 2: he brings up Christianity, which is a lot, especially for
• 8:26
  Speaker 2: a Democrat candidate, it's the opposite of what Jesus taught.
• 8:31
  Speaker 2: And some are obviously following for it.
• 8:33
  Speaker 3: Yes.
• 8:34
  Speaker 2: I mean, just start with the fact that he claims
• 8:37
  Speaker 2: that God is non-binary. What? A, we are created in
• 8:45
  Speaker 2: his image. We are not non-binary. We are either male
• 8:51
  Speaker 2: or female. That's a binary choice. Binary. Doesn't get any
• 8:55
  Speaker 2: more binary than male and female. B, how many times
• 9:00
  Speaker 2: in the Bible do the father and son have to
• 9:04
  Speaker 2: self-identify as father and son? Like, do we have, I
• 9:09
  Speaker 2: think we have scriptures to back that up.
• 9:11
  Speaker 3: Oh, yeah, we do. It's on the screen.
• 9:13
  Speaker 2: Right there, John 8, 18, King James Version. I am
• 9:17
  Speaker 2: the one that bear witness of myself, and the father
• 9:19
  Speaker 2: that sent me beareth witness of me. The father seems
• 9:23
  Speaker 2: to be a male figure there.
• 9:27
  Speaker 3: Does he not?
• 9:28
  Speaker 2: I mean, it's just it's not a difficult concept. And
• 9:33
  Speaker 2: listen to the mind numbingly bizarre justification he gave. We
• 9:39
  Speaker 2: couldn't believe this on the on the day we first
• 9:41
  Speaker 2: heard it. The justification for abortion because he's a big
• 9:45
  Speaker 2: abortion advocate. He was trying to claim that the conversation
• 9:50
  Speaker 2: that Mary, the mother of God, had with the angel
• 9:53
  Speaker 2: of God about her being the one to bring the son.
• 9:56
  Speaker 3: Of God to earth. Do we have that? Do we have? OK,
• 10:01
  Speaker 3: let's see that. Here's what he had to say.
• 10:03
  Speaker 9: What do you think is the biblical evidence to support
• 10:05
  Speaker 9: the opinion of being pro-abortion?
• 10:07
  Speaker 15: Mary is probably my my favorite figure in the Bible,
• 10:10
  Speaker 15: the mother of Jesus. And, you know, she is she's
• 10:15
  Speaker 15: an oppressed peasant teenage girl. living in poverty under an
• 10:20
  Speaker 15: oppressive empire as a Jew. And she has a vision
• 10:25
  Speaker 15: from God that she's gonna give birth to a baby
• 10:29
  Speaker 15: who's gonna bring the powerful down from their thrones. God
• 10:32
  Speaker 15: asks for Mary's consent, which is remarkable. I mean, go
• 10:37
  Speaker 15: back and read this in Luke. I mean, the angel
• 10:42
  Speaker 15: comes down and asks Mary, if this is something she
• 10:45
  Speaker 15: wants to do. And she says, if it is God's will,
• 10:48
  Speaker 15: let it be done.
• 10:49
  Speaker 3: Let it be. Let it happen.
• 10:51
  Speaker 15: So to me, that is an affirmation in one of
• 10:53
  Speaker 15: our most central stories that creation has to be done
• 10:57
  Speaker 15: with consent. You cannot force someone to create. Creation is
• 11:00
  Speaker 15: one of the most sacred acts that we engage in
• 11:04
  Speaker 15: as human beings. But that has to be done with consent.
• 11:07
  Speaker 15: It And to me, that is absolutely consistent with the
• 11:13
  Speaker 15: ministry and life and death of Jesus. And so that's
• 11:16
  Speaker 15: how I come down on that side of the issue. Again,
• 11:19
  Speaker 15: I'm very open for my fellow Christians to disagree with that.
• 11:22
  Speaker 15: And they may have scriptural passages they point to to
• 11:27
  Speaker 15: be anti-abortion. And I think that's a debate that we
• 11:31
  Speaker 15: should feel comfortable having. All I'm saying is that it
• 11:33
  Speaker 15: shouldn't be assumed that just because you're a Christian doesn't
• 11:36
  Speaker 15: you are anti-gay or anti-abortion because there are so many
• 11:40
  Speaker 15: Christians out there who.
• 11:42
  Speaker 2: Don't subscribe to either of those policy positions. You don't
• 11:45
  Speaker 2: follow the Bible.
• 11:45
  Speaker 8: Yeah, there are.
• 11:46
  Speaker 3: So there's a lot of nuance. And you're one of them, frankly.
• 11:49
  Speaker 5: No.
• 11:49
  Speaker 2: No, Joe.
• 11:49
  Speaker 3: There's no nuance. There's no nuance. You're not just talking
• 11:53
  Speaker 3: about Joe.
• 11:53
  Speaker 2: I can't take it.
• 11:54
  Speaker 3: That's enough. Please.
• 11:55
  Speaker 2: Joe, I've tried to tell you, no nuance.
• 11:58
  Speaker 3: No.
• 11:59
  Speaker 2: Don't buy into that. I mean, we tried to make
• 12:01
  Speaker 2: sense of this. justification for abortion right after this interview.
• 12:05
  Speaker 3: Yes.
• 12:05
  Speaker 2: And you can't.
• 12:06
  Speaker 3: You can't.
• 12:07
  Speaker 2: Of course, God wants to be sure that Mary is
• 12:09
  Speaker 2: willing to become pregnant with the Savior of the world.
• 12:12
  Speaker 2: The angel is not saying to her, though, hey, if
• 12:16
  Speaker 2: you get pregnant, you can certainly have an abortion if
• 12:18
  Speaker 2: you want.
• 12:20
  Speaker 3: He's not.
• 12:21
  Speaker 2: He is saying, are you willing to carry, give birth to,
• 12:25
  Speaker 2: and raise on this earth the Son of God? Because
• 12:30
  Speaker 2: we don't want to just surprise you with that. So, yeah,
• 12:34
  Speaker 2: consent is a big deal. Yeah, he's giving you a choice.
• 12:38
  Speaker 2: That's one thing he will not take from us is
• 12:40
  Speaker 2: our agency. And he knew she would say yes. He
• 12:44
  Speaker 2: knew that. But he still asked her anyway. The rest
• 12:48
  Speaker 2: of us need to see that. Had she said, if
• 12:51
  Speaker 2: she had said no, I'm sure he would have found
• 12:55
  Speaker 2: somebody else. He knew he wasn't going to have to,
• 12:57
  Speaker 2: but would have found somebody else. I mean, giving birth to,
• 13:01
  Speaker 2: and Raising the Savior of the universe is quite the
• 13:06
  Speaker 2: massive undertaking. And God is all about agency. We have
• 13:13
  Speaker 2: our will. He doesn't take it from us. God was
• 13:16
  Speaker 2: certainly not going to surprise her with the pregnancy. So
• 13:19
  Speaker 2: that's why he sent the angel to be sure she
• 13:22
  Speaker 2: was a willing participant in the most important pregnancy ever.
• 13:27
  Speaker 2: I don't know how, what kind of weird twisted evil
• 13:31
  Speaker 2: makes that into an abortion justification. It's despicable. That needs,
• 13:40
  Speaker 2: you know, his wealth thing. You're not supposed to be wealthy. That's,
• 13:44
  Speaker 2: to him, that's evil. You know, but this is a
• 13:47
  Speaker 2: guy who up until.
• 13:50
  Speaker 2: Very recently, shared a bank account with his mom. I mean,
• 13:54
  Speaker 2: up to the time he was 32, they were still
• 13:57
  Speaker 2: paying for his moves. The guy, he doesn't have a job.
• 14:01
  Speaker 2: His job right now is being in the legislature in Texas.
• 14:05
  Speaker 2: That's his job. That's what he does. I mean, so
• 14:10
  Speaker 2: is he irritated that people are wealthy and successful and
• 14:14
  Speaker 2: he's not? Yeah, I think he is.
• 14:16
  Speaker 3: I think so.
• 14:18
  Speaker 2: But, you know, when he was talking about Wealth and
• 14:21
  Speaker 2: the Bible. He said he instructed, meaning Jesus, he instructed
• 14:26
  Speaker 2: the wealthy to sell their possessions and give to the needy.
• 14:30
  Speaker 2: During his campaign speeches addressing what Jesus would do if
• 14:33
  Speaker 2: he visited modern day Washington, D.C. This was just the
• 14:36
  Speaker 2: other day. Do we still have that clip? He noted
• 14:42
  Speaker 2: that Jesus blessed the poor and explicitly commanded the redistribution
• 14:45
  Speaker 2: of personal wealth to those in need. Contrasting this with
• 14:50
  Speaker 2: lawmakers who cut food assistance and health care. He would
• 14:54
  Speaker 2: have told them to depart from me, is what he said,
• 14:57
  Speaker 2: because they weren't giving them health care. Again, he misses
• 15:02
  Speaker 2: the point, or maybe on purpose, he twists the point. Yes,
• 15:07
  Speaker 2: Jesus blessed the poor, but he did not talk about
• 15:10
  Speaker 2: wealth redistribution. That was Karl Marx. Please don't confuse Karl Marx...
• 15:18
  Speaker 2: with the Son of God. What he did was to
• 15:22
  Speaker 2: a specific rich man, he told that rich man to
• 15:26
  Speaker 2: sell everything he had, give it to the poor, and
• 15:29
  Speaker 2: then follow him. That specific person. Jesus knew the man's
• 15:34
  Speaker 2: heart and how important money and wealth was to him.
• 15:39
  Speaker 2: And that was the point, that the wealthy guy said
• 15:43
  Speaker 2: he'd been obedient to God his entire life, so what
• 15:47
  Speaker 2: else do I need to do to receive salvation? And
• 15:50
  Speaker 2: he wasn't willing to do it. That was the point
• 15:54
  Speaker 2: of that. The love of money, not the fact that
• 15:58
  Speaker 2: he had money, that's not evil. It was the most
• 16:01
  Speaker 2: important thing to him to have that wealth, and he
• 16:04
  Speaker 2: wasn't willing to give it up. You've got to be
• 16:06
  Speaker 2: willing to give it up in order to save yourself.
• 16:10
  Speaker 3: And he wasn't.
• 16:11
  Speaker 2: So that doesn't mean that nobody should have wealth and
• 16:14
  Speaker 2: you should take all of your money and give it
• 16:16
  Speaker 2: to the poor. I mean, I really believe we're expected
• 16:19
  Speaker 2: to share what we have, but you can also be wealthy.
• 16:24
  Speaker 2: If we didn't have wealthy people, we wouldn't have jobs.
• 16:29
  Speaker 2: How many poor people, I'm sure you've heard this question before.
• 16:32
  Speaker 2: How many poor people employ tens, dozens, hundreds, thousands of
• 16:38
  Speaker 2: other people?
• 16:38
  Speaker 9: None.
• 16:39
  Speaker 3: None.
• 16:41
  Speaker 2: None. Then this Presbyterian seminarian, James Tallarico, said that all
• 16:50
  Speaker 2: faiths are equal paths to the truth.
• 16:55
  Speaker 3: What?
• 16:56
  Speaker 2: He described major world religions as branches on the same tree.
• 17:04
  Speaker 3: Again, no.
• 17:05
  Speaker 4: It's like a big circle, Pat.
• 17:06
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 17:08
  Speaker 4: Right there in the middle, and all paths are leading
• 17:09
  Speaker 4: to that.
• 17:10
  Speaker 2: Yeah, that was his thing, right? He noted that Christians, Muslims,
• 17:14
  Speaker 2: and Jews all worship the same God. And further... Yeah,
• 17:18
  Speaker 2: do they?
• 17:19
  Speaker 6: Do they?
• 17:19
  Speaker 3: Is Allah the same God? Do they? Uh-huh.
• 17:22
  Speaker 2: He also argued that there are so many pathways to
• 17:26
  Speaker 2: the sacred, referencing God, Yahweh, Allah, and nirvana.
• 17:31
  Speaker 3: Oh, okay.
• 17:32
  Speaker 2: Let's throw that in there, too. Again, it's just false doctrine.
• 17:36
  Speaker 2: As you know... Jesus said, I am the way, the truth,
• 17:41
  Speaker 2: and the light, and no man comes to the Father
• 17:43
  Speaker 2: but by me. That's one way, right? That's not many ways.
• 17:47
  Speaker 2: That's not a million ways. That's one way to salvation.
• 17:54
  Speaker 2: The man is just preaching the opposite of Jesus' teachings. So,
• 18:00
  Speaker 2: if you're going in the opposite direction of Christ, what.
• 18:05
  Speaker 3: Would you call that?
• 18:08
  Speaker 1: Hmm.
• 18:09
  Speaker 3: Anti?
• 18:10
  Speaker 2: Would you call it Antichrist?
• 18:13
  Speaker 3: Would you go so far as that?
• 18:14
  Speaker 1: I would.
• 18:15
  Speaker 2: I personally would. Because I think that's what this guy is.
• 18:18
  Speaker 2: A or an Antichrist. Not the, perhaps. I don't think
• 18:23
  Speaker 2: he's that powerful. He'll never be. He shares a bank
• 18:27
  Speaker 2: account with his mom.
• 18:28
  Speaker 14: His girlfriend lives at the KOA in another state.
• 18:32
  Speaker 3: Right. We don't even know her. You don't know her.
• 18:36
  Speaker 3: You don't know her.
• 18:39
  Speaker 2: And frankly, he's just not smart enough or good enough
• 18:43
  Speaker 2: to be deceiving the ultimate Antichrist. But the guy that's
• 18:52
  Speaker 2: and that's why he uses the gospel so much when
• 18:56
  Speaker 2: he's trying to pull the wool over our eyes. And again, sadly,
• 19:00
  Speaker 2: it looks like it's in part working. He's three points
• 19:03
  Speaker 2: ahead in Texas now.
• 19:05
  Speaker 10: I mean, it's working because he has the perfect opponent
• 19:08
  Speaker 10: for that to work against.
• 19:10
  Speaker 2: That is a big problem. Yeah, that is a problem.
• 19:13
  Speaker 3: What about Wesley Hunt's up to these days? Anybody know?
• 19:15
  Speaker 3: What does he do? Dude. What's he doing? Dude, need
• 19:19
  Speaker 3: to let that go.
• 19:21
  Speaker 2: Yeah. Although, would have been nice, you know, six months ago.
• 19:26
  Speaker 2: Had we paid attention to this? And Keith was.
• 19:30
  Speaker 10: predicted everything that has happened in the last six months,
• 19:34
  Speaker 10: I have said was going to happen.
• 19:35
  Speaker 3: And I'm terrified that this man is going to be
• 19:37
  Speaker 3: into office. Me too. Me too.
• 19:40
  Speaker 2: Because, you know, when it got down to Cornyn, Paxton, obviously,
• 19:44
  Speaker 2: you're going to want Paxton over Cornyn because he's been terrible.
• 19:47
  Speaker 15: Yep.
• 19:49
  Speaker 2: But if you go be that to the Republican primary,
• 19:54
  Speaker 2: when we had a chance to vote, and we could
• 19:56
  Speaker 2: have taken the really good guy who was also conservative.
• 19:59
  Speaker 5: U.S.
• 20:00
  Speaker 3: Army veteran, Southern Baptist, I believe. Right. Dude.
• 20:03
  Speaker 2: Then you don't have the issues. But here we are.
• 20:06
  Speaker 2: We're stuck with his choice.
• 20:07
  Speaker 3: Yeah. So....
• 20:10
  Speaker 2: Let's get him in office.
• 20:14
  Speaker 3: What a mess. What a mess, Texas. It is a mess. Dang.
• 20:20
  Speaker 2: And, you know, up in Michigan, they've got their mess.
• 20:23
  Speaker 3: Yes, they do.
• 20:24
  Speaker 2: With Rogers and El-Sayed, El-Sayed, El-Say-yood, whatever, however you pronounce
• 20:29
  Speaker 2: that stupid name.
• 20:31
  Speaker 3: Doctor. Thank you. He's just so annoying. Oh, yeah. You
• 20:36
  Speaker 3: sent in a clip on El-Sayed. We haven't played it yet.
• 20:40
  Speaker 3: I don't know. You want to hear from old Dr.
• 20:41
  Speaker 5: Abdul?
• 20:42
  Speaker 2: Yeah, this might be a good time to do it.
• 20:44
  Speaker 3: Clip six. All right, let's see what this is. I
• 20:46
  Speaker 3: don't even know what this is.
• 20:47
  Speaker 16: Well, there are.
• 20:48
  Speaker 12: Jewish voters in your state who are concerned about your
• 20:52
  Speaker 12: relationship with Piker.
• 20:53
  Speaker 9: You have condemned anti-Semitism, but not called out his rhetoric directly.
• 20:58
  Speaker 11: Why not?
• 20:58
  Speaker 12: With all due respect, this is the third time you've
• 21:02
  Speaker 12: asked about a Twitch streamer in California. Four events in
• 21:05
  Speaker 12: Michigan this week. You know what didn't come up? Twitch
• 21:08
  Speaker 12: streamers in California. Wow.
• 21:09
  Speaker 2: You know what should have come up? The Twitch streamer
• 21:12
  Speaker 2: in California that you used multiple times during your campaign.
• 21:18
  Speaker 2: That's why the Twitch streamer from California is coming up.
• 21:21
  Speaker 2: Because you brought him into it. And now he's all
• 21:24
  Speaker 2: indignant when he's asked about it.
• 21:26
  Speaker 3: Again.
• 21:30
  Speaker 4: Again.
• 21:31
  Speaker 2: It's like a Republican who would have used David Duke
• 21:33
  Speaker 2: to campaign for us. This is David Duke. He's here
• 21:37
  Speaker 2: helping me campaign right now. Don't worry about it. He's
• 21:41
  Speaker 2: just some guy from, I don't know, Georgia or wherever.
• 21:44
  Speaker 2: I just found him on the street, and I thought, hey,
• 21:46
  Speaker 2: would you like to vote for me? And he wanted to,
• 21:48
  Speaker 2: so I'm going to let him talk for a minute.
• 21:50
  Speaker 4: Those are nice robes you're wearing. Why don't you come along.
• 21:51
  Speaker 12: For the ride?
• 21:52
  Speaker 10: Hasan Piker serves his purpose. He helped El-Sayed get through
• 21:57
  Speaker 10: the Democratic primary, and now he wants to cast him aside.
• 22:00
  Speaker 10: And no, I'm sorry, he's a relevant issue. You made
• 22:02
  Speaker 10: him an issue, and you don't get to determine when
• 22:04
  Speaker 10: we're done talking about him, bro.
• 22:06
  Speaker 1: Right.
• 22:06
  Speaker 2: And he thinks he does.
• 22:08
  Speaker 3: He certainly does.
• 22:10
  Speaker 2: But that's what these guys do, right? Just deflect and
• 22:15
  Speaker 2: go on to the next thing. Well, I hope they
• 22:18
  Speaker 2: don't let it go. I hope they don't let the
• 22:20
  Speaker 2: Hasan Piker thing go, because you brought him into it.
• 22:23
  Speaker 2: All right, I guess I'm being corrected by Robert in Kentucky. Hey, Robert,
• 22:27
  Speaker 2: welcome to The Blaze.
• 22:29
  Speaker 11: Hey, gang. So, and it's not really correction, Pat. You
• 22:37
  Speaker 11: had said that God wanted to make sure that Mary
• 22:40
  Speaker 11: was okay with it. And in Luke, it says an
• 22:45
  Speaker 11: angel came to her that he said, oh, sorry, I
• 22:51
  Speaker 11: lost this section. An angel said to her, do not
• 22:53
  Speaker 11: be afraid, Mary, for you have found favor with God,
• 22:56
  Speaker 11: and behold, you will conceive in your womb and bear
• 22:58
  Speaker 11: a son, and you shall call his name Jesus. He
• 23:01
  Speaker 11: didn't give her a choice.
• 23:02
  Speaker 2: Yeah, because he knew the future. But they did want
• 23:07
  Speaker 2: her affirmation that she's willing to do it. Do you
• 23:12
  Speaker 2: think she was actually forced to bear the Son of God?
• 23:17
  Speaker 11: I mean, forced?
• 23:20
  Speaker 2: No, I think that God— Force is from Satan. It
• 23:25
  Speaker 2: is not from God.
• 23:26
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 23:27
  Speaker 2: But you're right. I mean, that was the proclamation.
• 23:30
  Speaker 3: Thanks, Robert.
• 23:31
  Speaker 2: Because I think the outcome was already known. And he
• 23:36
  Speaker 2: was telling her what was going to happen. But they
• 23:38
  Speaker 2: still wanted her permission for it.
• 23:39
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 23:39
  Speaker 2: They still wanted her to be okay with it.
• 23:41
  Speaker 4: He did not want Peggy, who was over there in
• 23:44
  Speaker 4: the corner.
• 23:45
  Speaker 3: He wanted Mary.
• 23:46
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 23:46
  Speaker 3: Was it Peggy Sue? I think it was Peggy. I
• 23:48
  Speaker 3: think it was.
• 23:49
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 23:49
  Speaker 6: Yeah.
• 23:50
  Speaker 3: Wait, Peggy? Yeah, Peggy was waiting. That's a big Jewish
• 23:53
  Speaker 3: name back in the day. Oh, okay. Yeah, Peggy.
• 23:57
  Speaker 4: Peggy, she's over there in the corner.
• 23:59
  Speaker 9: We have the Bible verse, Luke 1.30, if you want
• 24:03
  Speaker 9: to read it, Pat.
• 24:03
  Speaker 3: Yeah, all right. Let's see.
• 24:06
  Speaker 2: And the angel said unto her, Fear not, Mary, for
• 24:09
  Speaker 2: thou hast found favor with God. And behold, thou shalt...
• 24:13
  Speaker 2: Conceive in the womb.
• 24:15
  Speaker 3: Conceive in the womb.
• 24:15
  Speaker 2: I've got stuff in the way.
• 24:17
  Speaker 3: You've got a hat in the way there. Yeah, I've
• 24:18
  Speaker 3: got a hat in the way. Bring forth a son.
• 24:19
  Speaker 2: Conceive in the womb and bring forth a son, and
• 24:21
  Speaker 2: she'll call his name Jesus.
• 24:23
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 24:23
  Speaker 2: So he's just letting her know, here's what will happen
• 24:27
  Speaker 2: if you're willing.
• 24:29
  Speaker 3: That's what I think. Oh, and I get that.
• 24:31
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 24:31
  Speaker 3: I get that.
• 24:32
  Speaker 2: You're not going to force somebody to bear the son
• 24:36
  Speaker 2: of God, right? That's kind of counterproductive, I would think.
• 24:40
  Speaker 3: And I think it shows the servant heart that Mary had.
• 24:42
  Speaker 2: Yeah. Yeah, and she was willing, obviously. She wanted to
• 24:46
  Speaker 2: do the will of God, and she did.
• 24:49
  Speaker 4: And I'm not sure where I talked about it, but
• 24:50
  Speaker 4: she didn't like Peggy.
• 24:51
  Speaker 3: She didn't? She did not like Peggy. Yeah.
• 24:53
  Speaker 11: Huh.
• 24:54
  Speaker 3: What was the issue? I don't know. I was going
• 24:56
  Speaker 3: to ask.
• 24:56
  Speaker 4: Something when they were kids.
• 24:58
  Speaker 2: Something happened.
• 24:59
  Speaker 9: Yeah.
• 24:59
  Speaker 3: Okay. Did you get hit in the eye with a berry?
• 25:02
  Speaker 9: Oh, no.
• 25:03
  Speaker 1: Nah, that was Ken.
• 25:04
  Speaker 3: That was good Paxton. Her last name was not Paxton.
• 25:07
  Speaker 3: It's not Peggy Paxton? No.
• 25:11
  Speaker 2: Okay, everybody needs to get over the eye injury. No doubt.
• 25:14
  Speaker 3: Okay? No doubt. We looked into it the other day.
• 25:17
  Speaker 3: We need to move beyond the eye injury. Yeah.
• 25:19
  Speaker 2: But it's weird what happened to him.
• 25:20
  Speaker 15: Yes.
• 25:22
  Speaker 2: He was playing hide-and-seek or something? Is that what the
• 25:24
  Speaker 2: story is?
• 25:24
  Speaker 3: He got hit with a berry.
• 25:25
  Speaker 2: And somebody threw a berry at him. Which I didn't
• 25:27
  Speaker 2: know was a component of hide-and-go-seek.
• 25:29
  Speaker 3: I didn't either.
• 25:30
  Speaker 2: I didn't either.
• 25:31
  Speaker 3: We've been playing hide-and-seek wrong, guys. I guess so. I
• 25:35
  Speaker 3: kind of like no holds barred hide-and-seek.
• 25:37
  Speaker 9: And then after that, he went to Baylor and then
• 25:40
  Speaker 9: got elbowed in the eye.
• 25:42
  Speaker 3: Same eye that got hit by the berry.
• 25:44
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 25:46
  Speaker 2: And it broke the bones around it.
• 25:49
  Speaker 3: The lid and all that stuff.
• 25:50
  Speaker 9: So he doesn't have a lazy eye. He has a
• 25:52
  Speaker 9: lazy lid.
• 25:53
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 25:54
  Speaker 2: The lid is an issue. His eye has seen some things, literally. Yes,
• 25:58
  Speaker 2: it has.
• 25:59
  Speaker 3: An elbow and a berry.
• 26:00
  Speaker 2: And because of the things it's seen, it sees less
• 26:03
  Speaker 2: of them now.
• 26:04
  Speaker 3: I see.
• 26:04
  Speaker 2: Because it did damage his vision.
• 26:07
  Speaker 3: Yes, he has partial facial loss.
• 26:08
  Speaker 2: It's a weird, sad story.
• 26:10
  Speaker 3: Right. Really sad. And it got infected. Yeah.
• 26:13
  Speaker 2: They didn't deal with it quickly enough.
• 26:14
  Speaker 3: Right.
• 26:15
  Speaker 2: The initial one.
• 26:16
  Speaker 3: The initial one, right. It got infected. Well, because he
• 26:19
  Speaker 3: was told, get over it, kid. It's a berry. Yeah,
• 26:21
  Speaker 3: dust it off.
• 26:22
  Speaker 1: Right.
• 26:22
  Speaker 2: Somebody threw a berry.
• 26:24
  Speaker 3: Move on.
• 26:24
  Speaker 8: Move on.
• 26:26
  Speaker 2: And back in that day, they probably did.
• 26:28
  Speaker 3: That's exactly what they did. Hell yeah.
• 26:30
  Speaker 10: And we have a governor where a tree fell on
• 26:32
  Speaker 10: him when he was out for a run. I mean, Texas,
• 26:36
  Speaker 10: what's happening here?
• 26:37
  Speaker 2: What is going on?
• 26:38
  Speaker 3: But Pat told us to move on from that, so
• 26:40
  Speaker 3: we're going to move on.
• 26:41
  Speaker 2: Yeah, we have to move on from the eye injury.
• 26:43
  Speaker 4: Well, because it's a legitimate handicap.
• 26:46
  Speaker 3: Yeah, it is.
• 26:46
  Speaker 9: Wait, that's a legitimate handicap, and I get mocked when
• 26:49
  Speaker 9: I bring up my PTSD from a service connection?
• 26:52
  Speaker 3: That's not why you get mocked, bro.
• 26:55
  Speaker 11: Easy.
• 26:55
  Speaker 3: Injury?
• 26:56
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 26:57
  Speaker 3: No, I know.
• 26:58
  Speaker 4: Ken actually had something hit him in the body.
• 27:02
  Speaker 3: A berry just didn't drop.
• 27:04
  Speaker 4: Close by and he got hurt.
• 27:06
  Speaker 3: No.
• 27:07
  Speaker 8: Anyway.
• 27:08
  Speaker 2: Anyway.
• 27:08
  Speaker 9: Wow.
• 27:11
  Speaker 3: He went quiet on you there. Yeah. Because he knows.
• 27:13
  Speaker 3: He knows. He knows.
• 27:14
  Speaker 9: He knows. You know.
• 27:18
  Speaker 3: What else are we going to do?
• 27:19
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean, look, the guy, I don't know what
• 27:22
  Speaker 4: else we could do. It is concerning, I mean, disconcerting
• 27:25
  Speaker 4: when you see that picture. We saw that one picture
• 27:29
  Speaker 4: that's the headshot that's, you know, a really nice headshot,
• 27:32
  Speaker 4: and it's just like.
• 27:34
  Speaker 3: I don't know.
• 27:34
  Speaker 4: Do I want him to put a patch on or something?
• 27:36
  Speaker 3: Maybe.
• 27:37
  Speaker 2: Like Dan Crenshaw?
• 27:38
  Speaker 4: Maybe something, yeah.
• 27:39
  Speaker 3: Work for Crenshaw. Maybe it'd work for Ken. Wait, I
• 27:41
  Speaker 3: thought we were letting this go.
• 27:42
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I know.
• 27:43
  Speaker 3: Oh, okay.
• 27:44
  Speaker 2: Well, this is the process of letting it go. Now
• 27:46
  Speaker 2: we're picking a hook.
• 27:47
  Speaker 3: Trying to work through it. Trust the process. Trying to
• 27:49
  Speaker 3: work through it. Yeah. You know, wear some glasses or something.
• 27:53
  Speaker 3: But seriously, it's time to set. Yeah, we have to.
• 27:57
  Speaker 2: All of that aside and vote for Ken Paxton.
• 28:00
  Speaker 3: I am going to vote for him. I don't think
• 28:02
  Speaker 3: anybody in this room at least.
• 28:04
  Speaker 2: No, nobody's voting for him. This is for those listening.
• 28:09
  Speaker 2: Set it all aside, please, by all that is good, right.
• 28:12
  Speaker 3: And holy.
• 28:12
  Speaker 4: If you're listening outside of the state of Texas, call
• 28:15
  Speaker 4: your friends in Texas.
• 28:16
  Speaker 1: Yes.
• 28:16
  Speaker 9: And look how cool we are. We have a guy
• 28:19
  Speaker 9: with a lazy lid and a guy in a wheelchair.
• 28:21
  Speaker 9: We're freaking killing it here in the state of Texas.
• 28:23
  Speaker 2: Shows how we don't discriminate.
• 28:26
  Speaker 3: That's for sure. Definitely shows that.
• 28:30
  Speaker 2: I guess the governor's race supposedly is tied as well.
• 28:33
  Speaker 3: No way. Abbott and Hinojosa? I saw a commercial for her, man.
• 28:37
  Speaker 3: That's the first one I've seen.
• 28:40
  Speaker 4: I don't know that I've seen one.
• 28:41
  Speaker 3: I've never seen one, no. Was it well done?
• 28:45
  Speaker 10: You could see uninterested voters going, okay, yeah, I want
• 28:50
  Speaker 10: stuff to be cheaper.
• 28:52
  Speaker 2: And she's going to make it cheaper.
• 28:54
  Speaker 3: Okay. All right. Good. Right. Good. I'll have to sit
• 28:57
  Speaker 3: on that. I mean, it's a great cycle to be
• 28:58
  Speaker 3: running against Republicans.
• 29:00
  Speaker 1: It is.
• 29:01
  Speaker 3: It truly is.
• 29:01
  Speaker 10: And the low-information voters, as Rush Limbaugh used to refer
• 29:06
  Speaker 10: to them as, could definitely fall for a lot of
• 29:09
  Speaker 10: these ads that are running for Democrats in Texas.
• 29:11
  Speaker 3: Oh, for sure.
• 29:11
  Speaker 4: I mean, one of those first Tallarico ads that I saw,
• 29:14
  Speaker 4: I was like, It's.
• 29:16
  Speaker 2: All about affordability. Is it the one at the grocery store?
• 29:19
  Speaker 2: He's in his pickup truck and he gets out like
• 29:22
  Speaker 2: he's a real Texan. And he's picking out some steak
• 29:26
  Speaker 2: that he never eats.
• 29:29
  Speaker 4: Still though, it's an American male. A Texas American male.
• 29:34
  Speaker 2: That's the illusion he's trying to create.
• 29:37
  Speaker 10: But he should go overboard like Beto and go out
• 29:40
  Speaker 10: there with a gun.
• 29:41
  Speaker 3: Look, I'm a hunter like you.
• 29:42
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 29:43
  Speaker 3: Oh, it's agonizing. He stopped at the truck.
• 29:47
  Speaker 2: All right, 888-933-93. We'll chew the fat with Jeffy Cohen.
• 29:55
  Speaker 6: This is Pat Gray Unleashed. Great to have you with us.
• 30:06
  Speaker 8: 888-900-3393.
• 30:07
  Speaker 3: Pat Unleashed on Twitter.
• 30:09
  Speaker 2: Oh, Mitch McConnell. Didn't show up for work yesterday. So
• 30:21
  Speaker 2: he showed up on Monday.
• 30:22
  Speaker 3: Oh, my gosh.
• 30:23
  Speaker 2: With all the pomp and circumstance. And everybody got.
• 30:26
  Speaker 3: Up close to him, right?
• 30:27
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 30:27
  Speaker 3: And got to ask him questions and all sorts of
• 30:29
  Speaker 3: good stuff from the press. No. Everybody went in there
• 30:32
  Speaker 3: and said, hey.
• 30:33
  Speaker 2: But nobody was allowed to video it.
• 30:36
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 30:36
  Speaker 2: You couldn't take a video. I guess there were some
• 30:39
  Speaker 2: still shots. And then in the Senate chamber, there was
• 30:42
  Speaker 2: obviously some video.
• 30:42
  Speaker 3: We saw a little bit of video, but no audio.
• 30:44
  Speaker 3: How far away were the cameras?
• 30:46
  Speaker 2: It's a C-SPAN camera.
• 30:48
  Speaker 3: Oh, you mean, okay, so that was the only footage
• 30:50
  Speaker 3: we have of him. Yes.
• 30:52
  Speaker 2: So day two, he's not there. He's not there.
• 30:55
  Speaker 3: And we talked about.
• 30:56
  Speaker 4: This, I don't know if we talked about it on
• 30:58
  Speaker 4: the air or not.
• 30:59
  Speaker 3: Just remember, it took.
• 31:01
  Speaker 2: A lot out of him to create that day.
• 31:02
  Speaker 3: Yeah, we did talk about that. To show up on Monday.
• 31:06
  Speaker 3: Obviously it did.
• 31:07
  Speaker 4: And it took more out of him than, you know
• 31:08
  Speaker 4: what I mean, showing up every day after that.
• 31:10
  Speaker 12: No way.
• 31:10
  Speaker 10: It took three months to get that body double just
• 31:13
  Speaker 10: right on the C-SPAN camera. Exactly.
• 31:15
  Speaker 3: Exactly. And they did. And they did.
• 31:18
  Speaker 2: So now missing in action again.
• 31:21
  Speaker 4: There is audio from that day, though.
• 31:23
  Speaker 2: Oh, yeah, that's right.
• 31:24
  Speaker 4: We were told that we got a release from his people,
• 31:29
  Speaker 4: but nobody ever heard anything.
• 31:30
  Speaker 3: But there is some audio of Mitch. Clip 15.
• 31:36
  Speaker 4: I don't know if we have a whole news report,
• 31:39
  Speaker 4: but we do have a clip of Mitch McConnell report. Yeah,
• 31:42
  Speaker 4: the whole news report gives you the audio clip.
• 31:45
  Speaker 3: From Mitch McConnell.
• 31:48
  Speaker 2: Listen carefully.
• 31:54
  Speaker 5: In a navy blue jacket and yellow tie, Mitch McConnell
• 31:57
  Speaker 5: spoke to me and a handful of other journalists just
• 32:00
  Speaker 5: outside the Senate floor moments before casting his first vote.
• 32:04
  Speaker 1: In more than three months.
• 32:06
  Speaker 5: No video allowed in this area, but I captured his
• 32:09
  Speaker 5: voice and I took these photos just before 6 o'clock.
• 32:12
  Speaker 5: He is smiling, waving, acknowledging people in the hall outside
• 32:16
  Speaker 5: the Senate. The photos represent a summer's worth of speculation
• 32:20
  Speaker 5: about his health and ability to serve, now culminating in
• 32:23
  Speaker 5: a return to the Capitol watched by the nation.
• 32:26
  Speaker 3: Time to get back to work. Finish the job at
• 32:29
  Speaker 3: this conference.
• 32:30
  Speaker 5: McConnell chose to come through the entrance most obvious to media,
• 32:34
  Speaker 5: escorted in a wheelchair by his staff, making his way
• 32:37
  Speaker 5: down the hallway, and also giving brief comments.
• 32:40
  Speaker 9: His voice was low, but deliberate.
• 32:42
  Speaker 3: I'm here to work on farm does.
• 32:45
  Speaker 5: And on the Senate floor, Mr.
• 32:46
  Speaker 3: McConnell, aye.
• 32:47
  Speaker 5: Longtime colleagues and staff greeted the 84-year-old senator. Republican Senator
• 32:52
  Speaker 5: John Kennedy of Louisiana was there.
• 32:55
  Speaker 3: He looks great.
• 32:56
  Speaker 2: I told him he has a nickname.
• 32:57
  Speaker 3: Does he? John?
• 32:58
  Speaker 12: I call him Rock.
• 33:00
  Speaker 3: It has him like a rock, and it's asking.
• 33:05
  Speaker 2: If Elaine was happy to see him out of the house,
• 33:08
  Speaker 2: and he said unequivocally, so it's good to.
• 33:10
  Speaker 3: Have him back.
• 33:11
  Speaker 5: Tommy Tuberville, Republican senator from Alabama, is McConnell's next-door neighbor
• 33:16
  Speaker 5: here in D.C.
• 33:17
  Speaker 3: Hopefully he's healthy. I've seen some people go in, health
• 33:19
  Speaker 3: people that probably are working with him to make sure
• 33:22
  Speaker 3: he's fine.
• 33:22
  Speaker 5: Earlier in the morning, we were outside McConnell's D.C. home,
• 33:25
  Speaker 5: there in red. where we saw at least one SUV
• 33:29
  Speaker 5: connected to a security detail. After McConnell's return to Capitol Hill,
• 33:33
  Speaker 5: I showed Kentucky Congressman Thomas Massey a few of the
• 33:36
  Speaker 5: photos I took.
• 33:37
  Speaker 3: Welcome back to the swamp.
• 33:40
  Speaker 1: Glad he's healthy and able to vote.
• 33:43
  Speaker 3: He's not healthy.
• 33:44
  Speaker 5: McConnell said he's staying back to 100% and will continue
• 33:47
  Speaker 5: physical therapy. But he says he'll do his best to
• 33:50
  Speaker 5: be present for tough votes.
• 33:52
  Speaker 3: He'll do his best. And then day two.
• 33:54
  Speaker 2: He's not there.
• 33:55
  Speaker 5: Oh, he's got to show up today, then.
• 33:56
  Speaker 3: All right, I got it.
• 33:57
  Speaker 1: So you see.
• 33:58
  Speaker 9: That we have reinstalled, we have.
• 33:59
  Speaker 2: Restarted The where's Mitch clock, because day one was yesterday.
• 34:13
  Speaker 3: He was missing.
• 34:15
  Speaker 2: Today's day two. Today is day two, but he may
• 34:17
  Speaker 2: show up. He may show up. We might have to
• 34:19
  Speaker 2: take that back down tomorrow.
• 34:20
  Speaker 3: We'll see. We'll have to go back to one tomorrow.
• 34:22
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 34:23
  Speaker 3: Because there's no way he shows up after.
• 34:25
  Speaker 4: If he shows up today.
• 34:27
  Speaker 3: Which he's not going to.
• 34:28
  Speaker 4: If they make him struggle to show up today for
• 34:32
  Speaker 4: this Farmville vote, wheel him in so he can go.
• 34:36
  Speaker 3: And, okay, did it... I'm sorry.
• 34:38
  Speaker 11: This is.
• 34:39
  Speaker 9: Did you tell me that this guy's not coming back today?
• 34:41
  Speaker 3: I wasn't sure how many of you would be here today.
• 34:46
  Speaker 3: Glad to see you. Glad to see you. It's the
• 34:49
  Speaker 3: United States of America. Yeah. First of all, the guy
• 34:52
  Speaker 3: shouldn't even be in office.
• 34:53
  Speaker 5: No.
• 34:54
  Speaker 3: And then you're going to tell the press? They can't
• 34:56
  Speaker 3: take video of him? What in the world? What we
• 35:00
  Speaker 3: are accepting is just... It's crazy. Robot's glitch. Robot's glitch.
• 35:04
  Speaker 4: It's that close.
• 35:06
  Speaker 3: Well, no wonder I couldn't find video. I told you guys.
• 35:08
  Speaker 10: I drove in yesterday. I heard some audio way off mic.
• 35:11
  Speaker 10: I came in here and I couldn't find the video.
• 35:14
  Speaker 3: There you go. Time to get back to work.
• 35:18
  Speaker 2: Oh, he sounds vibrant.
• 35:23
  Speaker 4: I don't know why he wasn't there yesterday. I just
• 35:26
  Speaker 4: don't know.
• 35:27
  Speaker 3: I'm here to work on a farm bill. I'm here
• 35:30
  Speaker 3: to work on a farm bill. Oh my goodness. We
• 35:37
  Speaker 3: are not a serious country and I'm sick of this.
• 35:40
  Speaker 4: Senator Kennedy called me The Rock.
• 35:43
  Speaker 2: The Rock.
• 35:44
  Speaker 3: I got a new nickname. Holy crap. I don't like
• 35:48
  Speaker 3: that nickname.
• 35:49
  Speaker 2: The Rock?
• 35:50
  Speaker 3: The Rock, no. That's already taken. Yeah, it's Dwayne Johnson.
• 35:53
  Speaker 3: That's what you call a dead turtle. Because you're a turtle. Yeah,
• 35:56
  Speaker 3: thank you.
• 35:57
  Speaker 2: Well, I think because so many people confuse him for
• 36:00
  Speaker 2: The Rock Dwayne Johnson. That's why he got the nickname.
• 36:04
  Speaker 4: I just figured the turtle hadn't moved in a while.
• 36:06
  Speaker 3: I was like, is that a rock or is that
• 36:08
  Speaker 3: a turtle?
• 36:11
  Speaker 2: All right, it is time to chew the fat now.
• 36:13
  Speaker 3: It's rock and roll. With Jeffy.
• 36:22
  Speaker 4: Wednesday is here, so you know what that means.
• 36:26
  Speaker 3: Like the moon to the sun, he will block out
• 36:30
  Speaker 3: your screens.
• 36:30
  Speaker 15: He was the gate guard on the Isle of Spice.
• 36:35
  Speaker 4: He saved the West, so better.
• 36:40
  Speaker 3: Thank him twice when you're in it.
• 36:42
  Speaker 9: You're in it.
• 36:43
  Speaker 3: You can quote him on that.
• 36:46
  Speaker 6: We're two and a.
• 36:48
  Speaker 4: Half. Thank you.
• 36:53
  Speaker 3: Thank you very much.
• 36:55
  Speaker 4: Today, I mean, part of this Chewing the Fat segment
• 36:59
  Speaker 4: should be just called Good Luck, God Bless. More Americans
• 37:02
  Speaker 4: are up and moving to France. Last year, a number
• 37:05
  Speaker 4: of Americans who applied for a first-time French residence permit
• 37:09
  Speaker 4: increased 17.3%. compared to the previous year. Good luck, God bless.
• 37:14
  Speaker 4: Around 30 robots protested outside Poland's digital affairs ministry on Monday,
• 37:20
  Speaker 4: calling for tougher regulation of artificial intelligence and robotization. The
• 37:25
  Speaker 4: human organizers say there needs to be greater public debate
• 37:29
  Speaker 4: over the impact on new technologies on the labor market.
• 37:33
  Speaker 3: Now, they're not.
• 37:33
  Speaker 4: Autonomous, so they're just marching around there with their banners,
• 37:38
  Speaker 4: but it looked kind of funny. A Polish radio station
• 37:41
  Speaker 4: that launched a channel run almost entirely by AI, including
• 37:45
  Speaker 4: its presenters, has decided, you know, the project, we're going
• 37:49
  Speaker 4: to go ahead and pull the plug after less than
• 37:51
  Speaker 4: a week. The head of the station admitted they were
• 37:53
  Speaker 4: surprised by the level of emotion that the idea caused.
• 37:57
  Speaker 4: They shouldn't have said anything.
• 37:58
  Speaker 3: Should have just... Should have just done it. But I'm
• 38:01
  Speaker 3: glad that they pulled the plug. Good luck. God bless.
• 38:04
  Speaker 3: Justin Trudeau.
• 38:05
  Speaker 1: You know him.
• 38:05
  Speaker 3: You love him.
• 38:06
  Speaker 4: The Canadian, former Canadian prime minister, boyfriend of Katy Perry,
• 38:11
  Speaker 4: launching a film and TV production company. Man, I bet
• 38:14
  Speaker 4: you we're going to get some good stuff from him.
• 38:16
  Speaker 4: Hope and hard work with his former chief of staff,
• 38:20
  Speaker 4: Katy Telford. The company is developing adaptations of Perry Chafee's
• 38:25
  Speaker 4: 2023 novel, Closer by the Sea. And Uzma Jeladudun's 2025 novel,
• 38:33
  Speaker 4: Detective Auntie. And, of course, the always-present Moore. So I
• 38:38
  Speaker 4: can't wait, cannot wait for those coming from him.
• 38:41
  Speaker 3: Good luck. God bless.
• 38:44
  Speaker 4: It's finally coming to an end. Judge Judy giving up
• 38:47
  Speaker 4: the gavel. Judy Justice ends in October. Judy Shetland, 83 now,
• 38:55
  Speaker 4: have a lot of other things of interest.
• 38:57
  Speaker 3: Okay.
• 38:58
  Speaker 4: I mean, Judy's still cranking. So is Mitch McConnell. I
• 39:02
  Speaker 4: don't want to do hair and makeup anymore, but I
• 39:05
  Speaker 4: still want my message to get out there. She's handing
• 39:08
  Speaker 4: over her famous gavel to her son, Adam Leaf.
• 39:13
  Speaker 3: She devolves it.
• 39:14
  Speaker 4: She's going to produce Adam's Law. A syndicated small claims
• 39:20
  Speaker 4: court show in the vein of the iconic Judge Judy
• 39:22
  Speaker 4: program starring her 58-year-old son.
• 39:25
  Speaker 3: So they'll be.
• 39:26
  Speaker 4: Cranking out some more money. I mean, she's made quite
• 39:29
  Speaker 4: a lot of money.
• 39:30
  Speaker 3: Over the years.
• 39:31
  Speaker 2: She was making, like, $ 40 to $ 100 million a year.
• 39:34
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 39:34
  Speaker 4: There was one year that they reported she made, like,
• 39:36
  Speaker 4: $ 147 million in syndication in the shows.
• 39:39
  Speaker 7: Wow.
• 39:40
  Speaker 3: I mean, that's pretty good.
• 39:40
  Speaker 9: Yeah, it's pretty good.
• 39:41
  Speaker 3: And that was just one year. Pretty good. That's just
• 39:43
  Speaker 3: one year. It's pretty good.
• 39:44
  Speaker 8: Yeah.
• 39:44
  Speaker 3: So good luck to Adam. Hopefully she saves some of that,
• 39:47
  Speaker 3: you know.
• 39:48
  Speaker 11: Well, yeah.
• 39:49
  Speaker 2: Hopefully it's not all gone, because you know how Judge
• 39:52
  Speaker 2: Judy can go on spending sprees.
• 39:55
  Speaker 3: You get used to a style of life. It's true.
• 39:58
  Speaker 3: And that costs money to live that way. I mean,
• 40:01
  Speaker 3: you know that as well as anyone. Oh, sure, sure.
• 40:03
  Speaker 4: Let's see what we've got. Oh, we can look at
• 40:08
  Speaker 4: the movies and the Emmys. At the movie, Spider-Man finally
• 40:11
  Speaker 4: knocked off the top spot this week. Number one at
• 40:15
  Speaker 4: the box office was Practical Magic 2. They only raked
• 40:19
  Speaker 4: in $ 30 million, though, and they expected like $ 40 or
• 40:21
  Speaker 4: $ 50 million. So not really good. Spider-Man number two. Odyssey
• 40:26
  Speaker 4: hanging in there at number three. I mean, these two
• 40:29
  Speaker 4: are just hanging around forever. Spider-Man, you know, almost a
• 40:32
  Speaker 4: billion here domestically and $ 2. 45 billion globally. I mean, it's...
• 40:38
  Speaker 4: Was a good investment.
• 40:39
  Speaker 3: It's a monster. It is a monster.
• 40:41
  Speaker 4: And Odyssey has got $ 1. 68 billion, $ 600.
• 40:46
  Speaker 3: Million here in the U.S. Wow.
• 40:47
  Speaker 4: So, I mean, it's one of their huge movies, too.
• 40:49
  Speaker 9: And I believe Spider-Man signed a contract from, like, till
• 40:55
  Speaker 9: 2039 or 2030 to be the Spider-Man for the next.
• 41:00
  Speaker 4: Tom Holland?
• 41:00
  Speaker 3: Yeah, Tom Holland. Oh, why not? They locked him in
• 41:03
  Speaker 3: for the next five Spider-Mans. Why not?
• 41:06
  Speaker 4: Because they may never get made, but so what?
• 41:09
  Speaker 16: Wow.
• 41:09
  Speaker 3: There's going to be at least five more movies of Spider-Man?
• 41:13
  Speaker 3: I guess.
• 41:14
  Speaker 2: I mean, it's headed toward maybe the biggest movie ever.
• 41:18
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 41:19
  Speaker 2: Yeah, you'd want to do that again.
• 41:20
  Speaker 3: Yes, you would. You do. Yes, you do.
• 41:23
  Speaker 4: And we'd like to recreate it with the person who
• 41:25
  Speaker 4: did it. So, Tom, here's a bunch of money.
• 41:27
  Speaker 3: Yeah. And you're Spider-Man forever. That guy's... bringing in so
• 41:31
  Speaker 3: much money as Spider-Man. Yeah, absolutely. Absolutely.
• 41:34
  Speaker 4: I mean, the dolls, the clothes, aside from the movie.
• 41:41
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 41:42
  Speaker 9: And it's not a Marvel property. It's a Sony property,
• 41:44
  Speaker 9: which is even better.
• 41:45
  Speaker 4: Well, it's Sony Marvel.
• 41:47
  Speaker 3: It's even better. Yeah. Sony has to produce a movie
• 41:51
  Speaker 3: every 18 months. Yeah, to keep the deal, right? To
• 41:54
  Speaker 3: keep the deal. To keep the deal, yeah.
• 41:56
  Speaker 5: Wow.
• 41:56
  Speaker 3: I mean, it has to be associated.
• 41:58
  Speaker 5: Yeah. Yes.
• 41:58
  Speaker 3: With the product. Yes.
• 42:00
  Speaker 4: My son was going through the details of that contract
• 42:03
  Speaker 4: with me one afternoon, and I half listened.
• 42:07
  Speaker 3: So, oh, yeah, okay. All right. That's what they need
• 42:10
  Speaker 3: to do.
• 42:11
  Speaker 4: That's great. Runner with Alan Richen was number four, your boy,
• 42:15
  Speaker 4: with Owen Wilson. And I like Owen Wilson, too. It's
• 42:18
  Speaker 4: going to take– I've been watching Reacher this year, and
• 42:21
  Speaker 4: it's really hard to get past Alan Richen's personal– I.
• 42:26
  Speaker 2: Can't do it.
• 42:27
  Speaker 3: Can't do it.
• 42:27
  Speaker 4: But the season is really good.
• 42:29
  Speaker 3: It is.
• 42:30
  Speaker 4: Reacher's new season is really good. And I bet this
• 42:32
  Speaker 4: movie is probably really good, too.
• 42:34
  Speaker 3: Owen is great. I watched it. And if you like Reacher,
• 42:38
  Speaker 3: you'll appreciate it. It's literally... It's what it is. It's
• 42:41
  Speaker 3: what it is. It's the one character he keeps bringing back.
• 42:44
  Speaker 2: And why not?
• 42:45
  Speaker 3: That's what he's good at. That's all he can do.
• 42:46
  Speaker 2: That is all he can do.
• 42:47
  Speaker 3: That's why his wife's divorcing him. That's all you got.
• 42:51
  Speaker 3: I'm done with you.
• 42:52
  Speaker 4: One trick pony, get out. Then we have the Emmys
• 42:56
  Speaker 4: that happened on Monday night. Mariska Hagedy was the host.
• 43:00
  Speaker 4: By all accounts, she was okay, I guess. After Taylor
• 43:03
  Speaker 4: Swift Disney Plus concert special, the Eros Tour final show,
• 43:08
  Speaker 4: she was nominated for five Emmys. And they wondered if
• 43:11
  Speaker 4: she was going to show up.
• 43:12
  Speaker 3: No way.
• 43:13
  Speaker 4: She was that Monday Night Football baby. And in a
• 43:16
  Speaker 4: bit of agony, they did a whole bit of Law
• 43:20
  Speaker 4: & Order SVU, which Taylor had said she loved. In fact,
• 43:24
  Speaker 4: she named her cat Olivia Benson. So they did a
• 43:27
  Speaker 4: whole bit, about a five-minute bit. I didn't think it
• 43:29
  Speaker 4: was ever going to end. And Taylor was part of that.
• 43:33
  Speaker 4: And she showed up for that bit. So while she
• 43:36
  Speaker 4: was at Monday Night Football live, she had prerecorded the
• 43:39
  Speaker 4: Law & Order bit with Mariska Haggerty and her cat,
• 43:43
  Speaker 4: Olivia Benson.
• 43:44
  Speaker 3: So cute.
• 43:45
  Speaker 1: How fun.
• 43:46
  Speaker 3: Michael J. Fox showed up. That is. That's fun. Michael J.
• 43:49
  Speaker 4: Fox showed up to receive the Bob Hope Humanitarian Award.
• 43:54
  Speaker 4: He was in a wheelchair. He's obviously struggling with the Parkinson's.
• 44:00
  Speaker 3: But bless his heart, he was awesome.
• 44:02
  Speaker 4: I mean, what he had to say.
• 44:03
  Speaker 3: Was great, but it was really... Tough to watch. Yes.
• 44:08
  Speaker 12: Yeah.
• 44:08
  Speaker 4: It was really bad. I mean, if you've had anybody
• 44:11
  Speaker 4: in your life that has had that disease, it is
• 44:14
  Speaker 4: not fun, and you can quote me on that, man.
• 44:17
  Speaker 3: It is not fun.
• 44:18
  Speaker 4: Even Macaulay Culkin showed up to pay respects to Catherine O'Hara,
• 44:22
  Speaker 4: who passed away in January. He was with Andy Murphy
• 44:25
  Speaker 4: and Danny Levy, both co-stars of the TV show they
• 44:27
  Speaker 4: were in together. Part of the In Memoriam segment, which apparently.
• 44:32
  Speaker 4: Slipped the old Emmy's mind that Chuck Norris died this year.
• 44:37
  Speaker 3: Oh, no way.
• 44:37
  Speaker 2: They didn't include Chuck Norris?
• 44:39
  Speaker 4: He was not alone in people that weren't mentioned. So
• 44:43
  Speaker 4: Emmys do better.
• 44:44
  Speaker 14: I mean, Chuck, his show was a monster for like
• 44:47
  Speaker 14: 10 years.
• 44:49
  Speaker 2: Big star.
• 44:50
  Speaker 3: Huge star.
• 44:51
  Speaker 4: A lot huger than many people in that.
• 44:53
  Speaker 3: Audience, I'll tell you that. Yep. A lot huger. Thank you.
• 44:57
  Speaker 3: A lot huger. So do better. And surprise!
• 45:03
  Speaker 4: The 2026 Emmys saw viewership fall 12% from last year
• 45:07
  Speaker 4: per the early numbers on the ceremony. It was broadcast live, obviously.
• 45:11
  Speaker 4: It was 6.7 million viewers.
• 45:14
  Speaker 3: Oh, wow.
• 45:15
  Speaker 4: Across NBC and Peacock. Now, those are the preliminary numbers.
• 45:18
  Speaker 2: That used to be in the 30 to 40 million range.
• 45:20
  Speaker 3: Well, they were up against the first Monday Night Football.
• 45:23
  Speaker 10: Yeah.
• 45:23
  Speaker 3: Bye-bye. You're not winning that. No, you're not.
• 45:25
  Speaker 4: You're just not winning that.
• 45:27
  Speaker 8: Nope.
• 45:27
  Speaker 4: I mean, figure it out.
• 45:29
  Speaker 3: And they didn't. And they didn't. Right.
• 45:31
  Speaker 4: Widow's Bay swept the evening. uh, making history with the
• 45:34
  Speaker 4: most wins for a comedy in a single year. Um,
• 45:37
  Speaker 4: the creative arts nominees were two, a couple last week,
• 45:41
  Speaker 4: the last weekend, the weekend before last. And as for
• 45:43
  Speaker 4: the winners, outstanding drama, the pit on HBO max, uh,
• 45:47
  Speaker 4: lead actress in a drama, Rhea Sheorn, pluribus, which is on, uh,
• 45:52
  Speaker 4: Apple TV plus. And, um, the winner for, um, lead
• 45:58
  Speaker 4: actor in a drama, Noah Pitt or Noah Wiley, the pit. Uh,
• 46:02
  Speaker 4: so I mean, um, It was cleaned up.
• 46:04
  Speaker 3: Okay. Now that is your... Awesome. Let me tell you this.
• 46:08
  Speaker 2: If you're going to take a supplement every day, you
• 46:10
  Speaker 2: don't just want better numbers on a lab test once
• 46:12
  Speaker 2: a year, right? You want to feel the difference. That's
• 46:16
  Speaker 2: why you need to stop wasting money on fish oil.
• 46:20
  Speaker 2: You know, I keep hearing that omega-3s were good for you, but...
• 46:24
  Speaker 2: you never notice more energy, less stiffness or real relief.
• 46:28
  Speaker 2: So when you dig a little deeper, you're going to
• 46:31
  Speaker 2: find Native Path Antarctic Krill Oil. And Chris has been
• 46:35
  Speaker 2: taking this stuff. It's on another level, right?
• 46:38
  Speaker 5: It is.
• 46:39
  Speaker 3: And I just had my blood work last week from
• 46:41
  Speaker 3: the VA. You got all your numbers. And the guy said,
• 46:43
  Speaker 3: what are you doing? What's different? And I told Native Krill,
• 46:46
  Speaker 3: he said, keep taking it. Yeah, good.
• 46:48
  Speaker 2: Because like, your blood was mostly cholesterol.
• 46:53
  Speaker 3: Before, wasn't it?
• 46:54
  Speaker 2: And now it's just... I want to try some. They
• 46:57
  Speaker 2: were actually like, you've got butter running through your veins.
• 47:02
  Speaker 3: It was a little bit of butter and sugar. I
• 47:05
  Speaker 3: want to try some. Now we're good to go. How
• 47:08
  Speaker 3: do I get it?
• 47:09
  Speaker 2: Well, I'm going to tell you. It's up to 50%
• 47:12
  Speaker 2: more absorbable than regular fish oil. So your body can
• 47:15
  Speaker 2: actually use it and it absorbs it. And in head-to-head studies,
• 47:20
  Speaker 2: krill oil beats fish oil for supporting healthy cholesterol, reducing inflammation,
• 47:24
  Speaker 2: and easing joint pain. Give it a try. You're going
• 47:27
  Speaker 2: to love this. There's no scary laundry list of side
• 47:30
  Speaker 2: effects either. And right now, I got you 60% off.

• 48:12
  Speaker 6: Radio Network.
• 48:13
  Speaker 2: Got some tweets here. New Bomb Turk tweets, Tallarico is
• 48:17
  Speaker 2: dangerous because he's a heretic.
• 48:20
  Speaker 3: Yes, exactly.
• 48:22
  Speaker 2: Bunter Hyden, 48% gay crack connoisseur. Again, Pat, you assume
• 48:28
  Speaker 2: that most Christians voting for James know about his past
• 48:31
  Speaker 2: and present statements, but they truly don't. They have zero
• 48:35
  Speaker 2: clue about anything ridiculous. He has said or continues to
• 48:39
  Speaker 2: do and say.
• 48:40
  Speaker 3: Low information. Yeah. Voter. Yeah.
• 48:44
  Speaker 2: From Uncle Doc, Mitch McConnell doesn't decide what he's having
• 48:48
  Speaker 2: for dinner, but he gets to vote in the United
• 48:50
  Speaker 2: States Senate.
• 48:51
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 48:52
  Speaker 2: A national disgrace. America had one heck of a run.
• 48:57
  Speaker 2: A really big kindergartening thought criminal. The Emmys forgot Chuck Norris.
• 49:02
  Speaker 2: The public forgot the enemies. The Emmys.
• 49:05
  Speaker 3: No, you had it right. Same thing. I kind of
• 49:08
  Speaker 3: screwed that up.
• 49:10
  Speaker 2: Let me try again. From a really big kindergartening thought criminal.
• 49:13
  Speaker 2: The Emmys forgot Chuck Norris. The public forgot the Emmys.
• 49:17
  Speaker 3: Coincidence? No, I think not. I think not. I think
• 49:21
  Speaker 3: people are just done with all those award shows.
• 49:24
  Speaker 9: And the Gen Z actresses that were hosting and presenting,
• 49:27
  Speaker 9: they all bombed every single joke.
• 49:30
  Speaker 3: Oh, really? Every joke they said, it was not even registered.
• 49:33
  Speaker 2: Who were the Gen Z hostesses?
• 49:34
  Speaker 3: Oh, the stupid lesbian, Pam, sexuals, and the non-binaries, and
• 49:40
  Speaker 3: they think they're funny. Yeah, the jokes didn't hit. No,
• 49:42
  Speaker 3: none of them.
• 49:43
  Speaker 4: None of the jokes hit. The one comedy, the one girl,
• 49:45
  Speaker 4: I can't remember her name now, but she's in Hacks,
• 49:49
  Speaker 4: and she showed up as an Emmy Award.
• 49:52
  Speaker 3: And everybody beat her up for it.
• 49:54
  Speaker 4: But that's part of her character. She would have done that.
• 49:58
  Speaker 4: But no, it didn't land because everybody hated her for it.
• 50:00
  Speaker 4: That's just an attention grab. Well, yeah, the whole thing
• 50:05
  Speaker 4: is an attention grab.
• 50:05
  Speaker 3: The whole thing is an attention grab. What are you missing?
• 50:08
  Speaker 2: They're there to congratulate each other and get attention. That's
• 50:11
  Speaker 2: what they do, okay? They take a night off from
• 50:13
  Speaker 2: raping each other to show up and award each other
• 50:16
  Speaker 2: with stuff.
• 50:17
  Speaker 3: First of all, you're not taking the night off. Oh, no.
• 50:20
  Speaker 2: Okay, they're still getting that in?
• 50:22
  Speaker 5: Yes.
• 50:22
  Speaker 9: All right.
• 50:23
  Speaker 3: Wow, that took a turn.
• 50:24
  Speaker 2: Yeah, well, that's what Hollywood does.
• 50:26
  Speaker 3: Absolutely. That's why you're there. You know?
• 50:29
  Speaker 14: Wait, that's why you're there? That's why you're there. I mean,
• 50:31
  Speaker 14: rape is a harsh word, but.
• 50:33
  Speaker 3: But... When they're together. Yeah. They're pathetic.
• 50:38
  Speaker 2: I'm so sick of them. So sick and tired of them.
• 50:40
  Speaker 9: Still got to go watch the movie Runner and the
• 50:42
  Speaker 9: TV show Reacher.
• 50:44
  Speaker 2: Nope. Also, the Ed Sheeran controversy is really kind of
• 50:50
  Speaker 2: on fire, right? Yeah, we talked about that. Because he
• 50:52
  Speaker 2: was touring with Macklemore.
• 50:55
  Speaker 3: Right.
• 50:55
  Speaker 2: And kicked him off the tour.
• 50:57
  Speaker 3: Gave him the boot.
• 50:58
  Speaker 2: Because of his Free Palestine nonsense.
• 51:01
  Speaker 4: And Robert Kraft and what's his face from South Carolina?
• 51:05
  Speaker 8: Yeah.
• 51:06
  Speaker 3: It doesn't matter.
• 51:07
  Speaker 4: One of the other owners said, no, you're not going
• 51:11
  Speaker 4: to perform in our stadium if you bring that down.
• 51:14
  Speaker 3: Yeah, Robert Kraft is the one who was really leading
• 51:15
  Speaker 3: the charge. Get the other stadium. It might be about
• 51:18
  Speaker 3: time for that video to surface. Yeah, no kidding. From
• 51:22
  Speaker 3: the parlor. So?
• 51:24
  Speaker 10: I'm just telling you, fight fire with fire. I'm just
• 51:27
  Speaker 10: saying that I'm surprised that that hasn't been threatened to him.
• 51:29
  Speaker 4: I doubt that's available anywhere.
• 51:31
  Speaker 3: That tape's been destroyed by the NFL. So now.
• 51:38
  Speaker 2: They're going after Ed Sheeran, right?
• 51:40
  Speaker 4: And all the other musicians that Ed has asked said.
• 51:43
  Speaker 3: No, I'm not going to. They won't appear with him.
• 51:45
  Speaker 3: I'm not doing it with you.
• 51:46
  Speaker 4: Because they're calling it a free speech thing.
• 51:48
  Speaker 6: Oh, God.
• 51:49
  Speaker 3: Just get out of here.
• 51:50
  Speaker 4: And so, I mean, I don't know what happens. Does
• 51:52
  Speaker 4: Ed continue the tour?
• 51:54
  Speaker 3: I mean, that's a lot of money.
• 51:54
  Speaker 2: And look, it's your tour. If somebody wants to babble stuff,
• 51:59
  Speaker 2: you don't want them babbling because you don't want your
• 52:01
  Speaker 2: audience to be completely turned off by what's being said.
• 52:05
  Speaker 2: And he won't stop? What are you going to do?
• 52:08
  Speaker 2: You're going to kick him off the tour. That's not
• 52:10
  Speaker 2: a free speech thing. He can still go out and
• 52:12
  Speaker 2: speak wherever he wants.
• 52:14
  Speaker 3: Do whatever.
• 52:14
  Speaker 2: Say whatever you want.
• 52:15
  Speaker 3: And he will.
• 52:16
  Speaker 2: That's not a free speech. He didn't take away his
• 52:18
  Speaker 2: free speech.
• 52:19
  Speaker 3: And he will.
• 52:20
  Speaker 2: He took away his platform on his tour. So shut up.
• 52:26
  Speaker 3: I know. It's just so ridiculous. That's not the way
• 52:28
  Speaker 3: they see it. So asinine.
• 52:30
  Speaker 4: And really, Ed may have wanted Macklemore on the tour
• 52:33
  Speaker 4: so that Macklemore was the one saying it, and he
• 52:35
  Speaker 4: didn't have to. Maybe.
• 52:37
  Speaker 3: I don't know.
• 52:38
  Speaker 4: Because Ed doesn't want to say that. He just wants
• 52:39
  Speaker 4: to perform. He doesn't want to be a part of that.
• 52:42
  Speaker 3: Too late. You're in it now, bro. Once you're in it,
• 52:45
  Speaker 3: you're in it.
• 52:48
  Speaker 2: You know, John Resnick from the Goo Goo Dolls just
• 52:52
  Speaker 2: did an interview with Rick Beato.
• 52:55
  Speaker 3: Do you know who he is?
• 52:55
  Speaker 9: Mm-hmm.
• 52:56
  Speaker 2: Big guitar guy, really good music guy.
• 52:58
  Speaker 3: Great YouTube channel.
• 52:59
  Speaker 2: Has a great YouTube channel. And he did an interview
• 53:01
  Speaker 2: with Resnick, and Resnick said... uh he doesn't lecture his
• 53:06
  Speaker 2: audience people should stop lecturing their audience they're there to
• 53:11
  Speaker 2: hear music and be entertained they're not there to hear
• 53:13
  Speaker 2: you spew garbage about palestinians and israeli genocide and all
• 53:19
  Speaker 2: that nonsense and he's right stop it just entertain people
• 53:24
  Speaker 2: make people feel and he said you know the music
• 53:27
  Speaker 2: is there to make them happy and leave feeling good
• 53:30
  Speaker 2: I'm not there to tell them how to feel about
• 53:32
  Speaker 2: political issues. So some of the musicians get it. Certainly
• 53:38
  Speaker 2: not Macklemore, Springsteen, all those doofuses, Jon Bon Jovi.
• 53:46
  Speaker 3: It's agonizing. I know. It's agonizing.
• 53:50
  Speaker 4: It's going to be interesting to see what actually falls
• 53:53
  Speaker 4: out of this, if Sheeran can continue his tour on
• 53:56
  Speaker 4: his own, or who... I mean, if he continues the
• 53:59
  Speaker 4: tour with anyone, man, the protests outside his concerts are
• 54:03
  Speaker 4: going to be a nightmare. They have to postpone the tour.
• 54:10
  Speaker 3: You know what? We're just going to postpone it for
• 54:12
  Speaker 3: a little bit.
• 54:12
  Speaker 2: It's a lot of money.
• 54:13
  Speaker 3: It sure is. It's a lot of money. A lot
• 54:16
  Speaker 3: of hassle. People have already bought tickets. You've got to
• 54:19
  Speaker 3: do refunds.
• 54:19
  Speaker 4: You've got a lot of people that have invested a
• 54:21
  Speaker 4: lot of money in an Ed Sheeran concert, a tour.
• 54:24
  Speaker 4: And they're not going to be happy about that.
• 54:28
  Speaker 3: We should see what Sarah believes because she even has
• 54:30
  Speaker 3: an Ed Sheeran tattoo. Oh, really? That's how big of
• 54:33
  Speaker 3: a fan she is of Ed Sheeran. Sarah. Gonzalez. Oh, really?
• 54:36
  Speaker 9: Is there any other Sarah.
• 54:39
  Speaker 3: In his network?
• 54:39
  Speaker 5: Yes.
• 54:40
  Speaker 1: Oh, there is?
• 54:40
  Speaker 12: Yes.
• 54:41
  Speaker 2: Well, not in the network anymore, but.
• 54:43
  Speaker 4: Yeah. Oh, we can't talk to her about her, so
• 54:45
  Speaker 4: never mind. I apologize for thinking about that one.
• 54:48
  Speaker 3: Anyways.
• 54:49
  Speaker 2: We can't mention anybody associated with Glenn Beck now.
• 54:51
  Speaker 3: She's over there. All right. Stupid.
• 54:56
  Speaker 10: Anyways.
• 54:57
  Speaker 2: Anyway.
• 54:57
  Speaker 3: We should ask Sarah what she thinks about this whole debate. Yeah,
• 55:00
  Speaker 3: we should. Because she has a real big fan of
• 55:02
  Speaker 3: Ed Sheeran. Well, who isn't?
• 55:04
  Speaker 4: You know, that'd be interesting. We should maybe reach out
• 55:07
  Speaker 4: to her again, too, because I'd like to get it.
• 55:08
  Speaker 3: Uh-huh.
• 55:09
  Speaker 2: Get an update on the Ken Paxton stuff.
• 55:12
  Speaker 3: From the press secretary. Yeah. Because we all know she's
• 55:15
  Speaker 3: heading there.
• 55:16
  Speaker 2: Let's do it. All right. Meanwhile, we have found out
• 55:20
  Speaker 2: more about the holdout in the Lindsay Clancy trial. We
• 55:24
  Speaker 2: now know that not only is he— I just stabbed myself
• 55:26
  Speaker 2: in the eye. I'm going to have a lazy eyelid now.
• 55:29
  Speaker 1: Dang it.
• 55:29
  Speaker 3: We didn't even take a strawberry.
• 55:31
  Speaker 2: I just poked myself in the eye.
• 55:32
  Speaker 4: We have to take you to the hospital immediately so
• 55:35
  Speaker 4: it doesn't get infected.
• 55:36
  Speaker 2: Right?
• 55:36
  Speaker 3: Yes. Ken Paxton? That's so weird.
• 55:39
  Speaker 4: Next year we know you're coming to work with gangrene
• 55:42
  Speaker 4: in your eye.
• 55:43
  Speaker 3: Oh, no. Can we get the Blaze doctor in here
• 55:46
  Speaker 3: and take a look? Oh, yeah.
• 55:47
  Speaker 2: The Blaze physician is on his way.
• 55:49
  Speaker 3: I just called him.
• 55:51
  Speaker 2: So we know now that the holdout is Haitian, black,
• 55:56
  Speaker 2: and Catholic. I don't know his shoe size yet, but
• 55:59
  Speaker 2: we're working on that. I think it's around 11 or 12.
• 56:05
  Speaker 2: 11 or 12. His waist size, we need to know that.
• 56:09
  Speaker 2: But the brother of the holdout has spoken out. He
• 56:14
  Speaker 2: said that the jurors' families had to go into hiding
• 56:16
  Speaker 2: due to people hounding them. Yeah, you can imagine. Speaking
• 56:21
  Speaker 2: with the New York Post, the brother said the family
• 56:23
  Speaker 2: of the Catholic Haitian immigrants has had to deal with
• 56:26
  Speaker 2: true crime fanatics and reporters since a mistrial was declared.
• 56:31
  Speaker 2: The lone male juror holding out wanted to find her.
• 56:38
  Speaker 3: Guilty.
• 56:38
  Speaker 2: Apparently, he wanted to find Clancy not guilty by reason
• 56:42
  Speaker 2: of insanity. That was the holdout. Let me read that again.
• 56:48
  Speaker 2: With the lone male juror holding out against the 11
• 56:54
  Speaker 2: other members who wanted to find Clancy not guilty by
• 56:56
  Speaker 2: reason of insanity. So the other 11 were at least
• 56:59
  Speaker 2: going to do by reason of insanity.
• 57:01
  Speaker 3: He wouldn't even go that far. He wouldn't even go there. Okay.
• 57:04
  Speaker 3: But again. Again.
• 57:05
  Speaker 4: That's what juries are for and do.
• 57:09
  Speaker 8: Yes.
• 57:09
  Speaker 2: That's what they've been instructed.
• 57:11
  Speaker 3: Yes.
• 57:11
  Speaker 2: You know, you're supposed to go with what you hear
• 57:13
  Speaker 2: in the trial, not the nurses who are in the
• 57:16
  Speaker 2: jury telling you information. That's got nothing to do with it.
• 57:19
  Speaker 2: And look, if what happened happens, then that's the way
• 57:23
  Speaker 2: it is.
• 57:24
  Speaker 1: Sorry.
• 57:24
  Speaker 4: It's got to be unanimous. Change the rules. Make it,
• 57:28
  Speaker 4: you know, a percentage, whatever.
• 57:30
  Speaker 3: So is he?
• 57:32
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 57:32
  Speaker 3: Okay. So he's a Haitian immigrant? Yeah.
• 57:34
  Speaker 4: Okay.
• 57:35
  Speaker 1: Okay.
• 57:35
  Speaker 2: A Catholic Haitian immigrant.
• 57:37
  Speaker 10: Is he supposed to be self-deporting at this point? Does
• 57:41
  Speaker 10: this put the left in a bind?
• 57:43
  Speaker 1: Wow, yeah.
• 57:44
  Speaker 3: Like, hey, you know, we want these people to stay here.
• 57:47
  Speaker 3: Wait a minute. Not this guy.
• 57:48
  Speaker 10: Not if he's going to vote that way on a
• 57:49
  Speaker 10: jury for three murdered babies.
• 57:52
  Speaker 2: That's going to create a little problem for him.
• 57:54
  Speaker 3: You know it is. This is... Yeah.
• 57:56
  Speaker 10: I mean, there's so many different steps down this path
• 58:00
  Speaker 10: that have just gotten more and more hilarious.
• 58:02
  Speaker 12: Yep.
• 58:03
  Speaker 2: It's... It's tremendous. They've got a couple of problems now.
• 58:07
  Speaker 2: They've got a Haitian immigrant to deal with. And apparently
• 58:11
  Speaker 2: women are different than men.
• 58:12
  Speaker 3: Yes.
• 58:13
  Speaker 2: And there's a hormone thing going on with a woman. Wait,
• 58:16
  Speaker 2: do we even know she's a woman? How do we
• 58:18
  Speaker 2: find that out? Did you bring in a biologist during
• 58:20
  Speaker 2: the trial that I missed?
• 58:21
  Speaker 3: Thank you.
• 58:23
  Speaker 4: And all women that are for sure women that have
• 58:27
  Speaker 4: pregnancies go through this.
• 58:29
  Speaker 2: Yeah, and you don't know. You don't know because you
• 58:31
  Speaker 2: can't get pregnant. Wait, are you saying that trans women
• 58:36
  Speaker 2: can't get pregnant?
• 58:39
  Speaker 12: What?
• 58:39
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it's a real dilemma for them.
• 58:43
  Speaker 3: You are kidding.
• 58:45
  Speaker 2: They're creating a little issue for themselves. You got to
• 58:47
  Speaker 2: love that part of it.
• 58:49
  Speaker 3: You really do.
• 58:52
  Speaker 2: Also, China called the warning by CEOs here in America
• 58:57
  Speaker 2: of OpenAI and Anthropic, the warning that they're issuing to
• 59:01
  Speaker 2: slow down on AI. They're calling it fear mongering. They
• 59:06
  Speaker 2: push back on the calls by U.S. AI execs for
• 59:09
  Speaker 2: companies to slow down the development. They said fear mongering, confrontation,
• 59:14
  Speaker 2: competition will just disrupt the process of global AI governance,
• 59:19
  Speaker 2: according to a spokesman for China's foreign ministry. See, that's
• 59:23
  Speaker 2: the deal. I mean, just what we've been saying, we
• 59:26
  Speaker 2: can slow down all we want. The Chinese are not
• 59:30
  Speaker 2: going to. They will not be joining us in that.
• 59:33
  Speaker 10: Yeah, and President Xi will be at the White House
• 59:37
  Speaker 10: meeting with President Trump a week from tomorrow.
• 59:40
  Speaker 3: Oh, okay.
• 59:40
  Speaker 4: Okay, that's why Trump downplayed the report that said China
• 59:46
  Speaker 4: helped Iran. Trump downplayed that.
• 59:50
  Speaker 3: We'll talk about that in private with him. Just like
• 59:55
  Speaker 3: the space weapons?
• 59:57
  Speaker 2: We just made that announcement, too, that we just admitted
• 1:00:00
  Speaker 2: we've got weapons in space.
• 1:00:02
  Speaker 9: Yeah.
• 1:00:02
  Speaker 2: Do you love that?
• 1:00:03
  Speaker 3: I love it. I'm sorry.
• 1:00:04
  Speaker 2: I love it.
• 1:00:05
  Speaker 3: I love that. And I also heard a report. Love it.
• 1:00:08
  Speaker 4: I heard a report yesterday, and I'm sure it's just coincidence,
• 1:00:11
  Speaker 4: but one of the China satellites just broke up.
• 1:00:15
  Speaker 3: Oh, no. Oh, no. Oh, no. I mean, I hate
• 1:00:17
  Speaker 3: to hear that. Yeah, I hate to hear it. Wait,
• 1:00:18
  Speaker 3: don't tell us like that.
• 1:00:20
  Speaker 1: Oh, well, let's move on.
• 1:00:22
  Speaker 3: So we own the moon.
• 1:00:23
  Speaker 5: Yes.
• 1:00:23
  Speaker 3: And we have space weapons. Yes.
• 1:00:25
  Speaker 5: Yes.
• 1:00:26
  Speaker 4: Yes.
• 1:00:26
  Speaker 3: And the uniforms of the Space Force looks like... The Empire.
• 1:00:31
  Speaker 3: The Empire.
• 1:00:32
  Speaker 2: That's not my favorite element of that.
• 1:00:33
  Speaker 3: But yes. I love all this. All of the above.
• 1:00:35
  Speaker 3: I love all this.
• 1:00:36
  Speaker 2: And Russia and China are not pleased.
• 1:00:39
  Speaker 3: And that's tough.
• 1:00:40
  Speaker 2: Oh, no. That's part of the tough act of 2025.
• 1:00:42
  Speaker 3: Thank you. We already passed that last year or so.
• 1:00:45
  Speaker 3: So tough. I think that's the last thing that the
• 1:00:47
  Speaker 3: Senate got done.
• 1:00:48
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I think it was.
• 1:00:49
  Speaker 3: I think it was.
• 1:00:51
  Speaker 9: Maybe we should have put some other stuff in there
• 1:00:53
  Speaker 9: next time. Like the SAVE Act and all that cool stuff,
• 1:00:56
  Speaker 9: but hey.
• 1:00:58
  Speaker 2: So they said they didn't say what type of weapon
• 1:01:01
  Speaker 2: it is, what exactly it does. So that part's a mystery,
• 1:01:05
  Speaker 2: which is awesome. But the next thing you're going to
• 1:01:08
  Speaker 2: hear them admit is that we also have transportation. We
• 1:01:11
  Speaker 2: have transport technology, okay? And, oh, by the way, did
• 1:01:16
  Speaker 2: we mention we have cold fusion? We've got that in
• 1:01:19
  Speaker 2: the basement over here.
• 1:01:20
  Speaker 3: Oh, we found it? Yeah, we found it.
• 1:01:22
  Speaker 8: Oh, nice.
• 1:01:23
  Speaker 2: That's what I'd like to have happen, but we'll see.
• 1:01:27
  Speaker 2: We'll see where that goes. I saw some UK weapons
• 1:01:31
  Speaker 2: experts saying that, oh, it's probably some sort of jamming system.
• 1:01:35
  Speaker 10: Okay.
• 1:01:37
  Speaker 3: Nah, I mean, you can... You know what? I want
• 1:01:40
  Speaker 3: it to be a little sexier than that. Let them guess.
• 1:01:42
  Speaker 2: Yeah, let them guess.
• 1:01:43
  Speaker 12: You're right.
• 1:01:44
  Speaker 3: You're right, UK experts.
• 1:01:47
  Speaker 2: I hope it's some kind of really cool laser technology that,
• 1:01:50
  Speaker 2: I mean, completely.
• 1:01:52
  Speaker 3: Which.
• 1:01:52
  Speaker 4: I thought we had used, right? We did use some
• 1:01:55
  Speaker 4: of that.
• 1:01:55
  Speaker 9: We have lasers on ships and lasers on guns.
• 1:01:58
  Speaker 3: I thought we used that in Iran at the beginning
• 1:02:00
  Speaker 3: of the Iran stuff. On the ships, yes. From the satellites, too. Oh,
• 1:02:04
  Speaker 3: I don't know about that. Okay. All right.
• 1:02:07
  Speaker 2: That does sound familiar.
• 1:02:08
  Speaker 3: We have the technology. Wasn't it China's lasers that we've
• 1:02:12
  Speaker 3: seen video of or something?
• 1:02:15
  Speaker 6: Yeah.
• 1:02:15
  Speaker 3: I forget.
• 1:02:16
  Speaker 2: The lasers over Hawaii?
• 1:02:18
  Speaker 3: Hawaii, yes.
• 1:02:19
  Speaker 4: We saw those, but that's not what I was- Oh,
• 1:02:21
  Speaker 4: that's the fire lasers. There was reports of using the
• 1:02:24
  Speaker 4: lasers from the satellites at the beginning of the Iran thing.
• 1:02:27
  Speaker 3: And Trump has told us- Those just went away.
• 1:02:29
  Speaker 9: That we have technology that we can read a credit
• 1:02:32
  Speaker 9: card from space.
• 1:02:34
  Speaker 3: Right. So- Right. That's pretty amazing. That is pretty cool.
• 1:02:39
  Speaker 2: But we still can't get a decent shot of a UFO.
• 1:02:42
  Speaker 3: That's weird. You gotta let that go. That's weird.
• 1:02:45
  Speaker 2: How is that possible?
• 1:02:46
  Speaker 3: It's not. You gotta let that go.
• 1:02:50
  Speaker 2: We can see the freckles on the back of a
• 1:02:52
  Speaker 2: redheaded person, but we can't get a decent clear shot
• 1:02:57
  Speaker 2: of a UFO.
• 1:02:58
  Speaker 3: It's not possible. They move so quickly.
• 1:03:01
  Speaker 2: All right. Everybody's talking about weight loss injections because, you know,
• 1:03:06
  Speaker 2: the results are really dramatic. They work by lowering blood
• 1:03:09
  Speaker 2: sugar and reducing appetite. So what if you're looking to
• 1:03:11
  Speaker 2: lose weight, but you're not interested in the painful weekly injections?
• 1:03:16
  Speaker 2: especially when you hear about some of the intense side effects.
• 1:03:19
  Speaker 2: And it's also expensive. That's why doctors created a weight
• 1:03:23
  Speaker 2: loss supplement called Lean. And the results are pretty astounding.
• 1:03:28
  Speaker 2: The studied ingredients in Lean have been shown to lower
• 1:03:31
  Speaker 2: your blood sugar, burn fat by converting it into energy,
• 1:03:35
  Speaker 2: and curb your appetite and cravings. So you're just not
• 1:03:37
  Speaker 2: as hungry during the day. But Lean is not for
• 1:03:40
  Speaker 2: just a casual dieter with a couple of pounds to lose.
• 1:03:43
  Speaker 2: The doctors at BrickHouse Nutrition created Lean For frustrated dieters
• 1:03:47
  Speaker 2: who've been, you know, back and forth, up and down,

  Speaker 7: Saying what you're thinking returns after this.
• 1:04:33
  Speaker 2: So many controversies going all at once. It's hard to
• 1:04:35
  Speaker 2: keep them straight. We got the, uh, texas railroad commissioner
• 1:04:39
  Speaker 2: candidate controversy right yeah because he noticed something at the
• 1:04:43
  Speaker 2: texas ohio state game it was in austin and it
• 1:04:46
  Speaker 2: was at texas's big stadium which is what 101 000
• 1:04:49
  Speaker 2: people yeah something like that and uh so he took
• 1:04:53
  Speaker 2: a shot of the crowd and a lot of them
• 1:04:55
  Speaker 2: were looked to be of indian.
• 1:04:57
  Speaker 4: And we believe the picture was real we.
• 1:04:59
  Speaker 2: Believe the picture was real um and i'm think it was,
• 1:05:04
  Speaker 2: but he created quite a controversy because he insinuated that
• 1:05:10
  Speaker 2: that's different than the crowd used to.
• 1:05:13
  Speaker 3: Look at the University of Texas. You're not supposed to notice?
• 1:05:15
  Speaker 2: You're not supposed to notice.
• 1:05:16
  Speaker 3: Oh, okay.
• 1:05:17
  Speaker 2: No, and if you do, you're supposed to celebrate it.
• 1:05:21
  Speaker 2: It's like, look, look how the white people have been
• 1:05:24
  Speaker 2: pushed out of this photo.
• 1:05:26
  Speaker 3: Texas is really diverse. Good, yeah, look at the diversity.
• 1:05:30
  Speaker 3: Diversity is what we love. It's what we worship in
• 1:05:32
  Speaker 3: this country. You want cultural enrichment. Yes. Right. You're right.
• 1:05:36
  Speaker 2: We don't want assimilation. We don't want any of that.
• 1:05:38
  Speaker 2: Because that's bad.
• 1:05:41
  Speaker 1: Unity.
• 1:05:41
  Speaker 2: You don't want to be unified. You want to be diverse.
• 1:05:45
  Speaker 2: You want as many different languages as possible. As many
• 1:05:49
  Speaker 2: different cultures as you possibly can.
• 1:05:51
  Speaker 3: That would be fair. Let's want a little section there.
• 1:05:54
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 1:05:55
  Speaker 3: But, okay.
• 1:05:56
  Speaker 2: But, yes, there's... It's a different look than maybe 20
• 1:05:59
  Speaker 2: years ago.
• 1:06:00
  Speaker 3: It's possible. It's very... You know, it's not possible. That's
• 1:06:03
  Speaker 3: a fact.
• 1:06:04
  Speaker 2: But, you know, he mentioned it, and so Cornyn had
• 1:06:07
  Speaker 2: to make it a big racial issue and call him
• 1:06:10
  Speaker 2: a racist because of it.
• 1:06:12
  Speaker 4: That's why we got rid of you, John.
• 1:06:15
  Speaker 2: Yeah, right.
• 1:06:15
  Speaker 8: Yeah.
• 1:06:16
  Speaker 5: Right.
• 1:06:17
  Speaker 2: You know, no other country on Earth is expected to
• 1:06:19
  Speaker 2: be fine. With a complete reversal of your nation's demographics,
• 1:06:25
  Speaker 2: no other nation would... Just remain quiet about it and
• 1:06:29
  Speaker 2: just say, oh, okay, that's fine. That's fine. We've been
• 1:06:32
  Speaker 2: completely transformed. Let's look at the opposite. Again, would they
• 1:06:37
  Speaker 2: be fine in India if, say, 30 million Americans moved
• 1:06:41
  Speaker 2: to Mumbai? Would they be fine with that?
• 1:06:45
  Speaker 3: Oh, look, we're diverse. You completely changed the makeup of
• 1:06:48
  Speaker 3: the area. Would that not be a problem for Indians?
• 1:06:51
  Speaker 3: I think it would. I think it would. I think
• 1:06:53
  Speaker 3: it would be as well.
• 1:06:54
  Speaker 2: Would Japan have an issue with that? You bet they
• 1:06:57
  Speaker 2: would because they've got laws against it.
• 1:07:00
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 1:07:00
  Speaker 4: I was just going to say, I think all these
• 1:07:01
  Speaker 4: countries have absolute laws.
• 1:07:03
  Speaker 2: They're not racial laws. They're immigration laws.
• 1:07:06
  Speaker 3: Okay.
• 1:07:07
  Speaker 2: So if you want to immigrate there, sorry, no, you can't.
• 1:07:12
  Speaker 2: They make sure it can't happen through immigration, through housing laws,
• 1:07:16
  Speaker 2: through labor laws, all of that. China, same thing. Try
• 1:07:20
  Speaker 2: to become a citizen from America in China. See how
• 1:07:24
  Speaker 2: that works out for you. Try to live there permanently.
• 1:07:27
  Speaker 2: See how that works out for you.
• 1:07:28
  Speaker 3: I was just reading.
• 1:07:29
  Speaker 2: You can't.
• 1:07:29
  Speaker 4: No, I did that story in Chewing the Fat where
• 1:07:32
  Speaker 4: more people are going to France, like 17% more than
• 1:07:36
  Speaker 4: the year before. But I went through, I was looking
• 1:07:38
  Speaker 4: at what it takes to actually live. You know, move there.
• 1:07:41
  Speaker 4: It takes some doing.
• 1:07:42
  Speaker 8: Yeah.
• 1:07:43
  Speaker 3: It takes some doing.
• 1:07:44
  Speaker 2: And that's the case with everybody but us. We're the
• 1:07:46
  Speaker 2: only ones that are just supposed to, olly, olly, olly,
• 1:07:48
  Speaker 2: come free. Whoever wants to come can come. Come on in.
• 1:07:51
  Speaker 2: We'll make room for you. And you don't change a thing.
• 1:07:55
  Speaker 4: Our State Department and the administration is trying to put
• 1:07:57
  Speaker 4: a stop to that.
• 1:07:58
  Speaker 3: And they're the haters.
• 1:07:59
  Speaker 2: Right. That's right.
• 1:08:02
  Speaker 3: It's unbelievable.
• 1:08:02
  Speaker 2: It's agonizing to me. I'm just so frustrated. We're just
• 1:08:06
  Speaker 2: supposed to shut up and take it.
• 1:08:07
  Speaker 3: So many things we're becoming frustrated about. Yeah, I know.
• 1:08:13
  Speaker 3: And with good reason.
• 1:08:14
  Speaker 2: Because there's a lot of frustrating things going on. Jeez.
• 1:08:18
  Speaker 3: And it's been going on forever.
• 1:08:20
  Speaker 4: I mean, look, we had the, you know, going to Mexico,
• 1:08:23
  Speaker 4: we sent back them. We're the exact opposite.
• 1:08:27
  Speaker 8: Yeah.
• 1:08:27
  Speaker 3: We're supposed to be. We're the exact opposite. To your point.
• 1:08:30
  Speaker 8: Yeah.
• 1:08:31
  Speaker 3: Right.
• 1:08:31
  Speaker 9: And Christians should be upset about this because Deuteronomy 28, 43,
• 1:08:35
  Speaker 9: 47 says, The foreigners who reside among you will rise
• 1:08:38
  Speaker 9: above you higher and higher, but you will sink lower
• 1:08:40
  Speaker 9: and lower.
• 1:08:44
  Speaker 5: Oh.
• 1:08:45
  Speaker 9: So, if we want to maintain our Christian influence, how
• 1:08:49
  Speaker 9: about we push back?
• 1:08:51
  Speaker 6: Yeah.
• 1:08:51
  Speaker 9: Because this nation, I don't know, Pat, you keep telling
• 1:08:53
  Speaker 9: me this, I don't believe it, but this nation was
• 1:08:56
  Speaker 9: started by Christian people.
• 1:08:58
  Speaker 3: It was.
• 1:08:59
  Speaker 2: You keep telling me.
• 1:09:00
  Speaker 3: Me this, but people tell me no, so. Yeah. And
• 1:09:03
  Speaker 3: I believe also you said this is a Christian nation?
• 1:09:06
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 1:09:06
  Speaker 6: Yeah.
• 1:09:07
  Speaker 3: Okay.
• 1:09:07
  Speaker 8: Yeah.
• 1:09:08
  Speaker 3: And we have a covenant? Yeah. Okay.
• 1:09:10
  Speaker 12: Yeah.
• 1:09:10
  Speaker 1: All right.
• 1:09:12
  Speaker 2: We've made a couple of covenants with God.
• 1:09:14
  Speaker 3: We've made a couple.
• 1:09:14
  Speaker 1: Okay.
• 1:09:15
  Speaker 2: George Washington did it.
• 1:09:16
  Speaker 12: Okay.
• 1:09:16
  Speaker 2: Abraham Lincoln did it.
• 1:09:17
  Speaker 9: Yeah.
• 1:09:18
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 1:09:19
  Speaker 4: And all the states that were separate in the U.S.
• 1:09:22
  Speaker 4: were all Christian states.
• 1:09:24
  Speaker 3: Oh, okay. That was their point. It wasn't the.
• 1:09:27
  Speaker 4: Government getting involved in Christianity. It was the states mandating it.
• 1:09:32
  Speaker 2: You're right, which we stopped that. But look at the
• 1:09:38
  Speaker 2: states doing it are the states that are so radically– Yeah.
• 1:09:46
  Speaker 2: opposed to any sort of religiosity. Now, Massachusetts, for instance,
• 1:09:52
  Speaker 2: they were a big-time religious state.
• 1:09:55
  Speaker 3: Yeah, you're required to be... Christian to hold office. Right. Pennsylvania.
• 1:09:58
  Speaker 3: What was Pennsylvania? Do we have any Christians out of Pennsylvania?
• 1:10:02
  Speaker 2: Quakers?
• 1:10:02
  Speaker 3: Was the tree? No. Quakers.
• 1:10:05
  Speaker 2: Yeah, like the Quaker Oats.
• 1:10:06
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 1:10:06
  Speaker 3: Oh, so that's what Oats came from? That's what it was. Yeah,
• 1:10:08
  Speaker 3: that's what it was.
• 1:10:09
  Speaker 2: The Oats came from the Quakers in Pennsylvania.
• 1:10:11
  Speaker 1: Oh, wow.
• 1:10:11
  Speaker 10: I will say, be careful on inviting those from other
• 1:10:16
  Speaker 10: countries into your lands. Because that's exactly what happened when
• 1:10:21
  Speaker 10: Mexico invited Anglos to come into Texas.
• 1:10:24
  Speaker 3: Come on in. Okay. They did. And we're not giving
• 1:10:30
  Speaker 3: it back, by the way. So be careful when you
• 1:10:34
  Speaker 3: open up your borders. Because it can flip the other way, too.
• 1:10:38
  Speaker 2: And it can go quickly. As we're witnessing.
• 1:10:41
  Speaker 3: Yeah. In real time.
• 1:10:43
  Speaker 9: It can go anywhere in here and not see some
• 1:10:45
  Speaker 9: disgusting feet.
• 1:10:51
  Speaker 3: That's something that's really bothering Chris. It's an issue, though.
• 1:10:54
  Speaker 3: It is an issue. He talks about often.
• 1:10:57
  Speaker 2: Chris doesn't like people's dirty feet. I don't know what
• 1:10:59
  Speaker 2: his deal is with that. I don't like feet in general.
• 1:11:02
  Speaker 3: No feet.
• 1:11:02
  Speaker 2: And neither does this guy.
• 1:11:04
  Speaker 3: No feet. I don't want to see him.
• 1:11:05
  Speaker 2: This guy's got some weird foot thing.
• 1:11:07
  Speaker 4: First of all, lose that pointing.
• 1:11:11
  Speaker 3: Keep the feet on lockdown. I like feet.
• 1:11:13
  Speaker 4: I just don't like people touching my feet.
• 1:11:15
  Speaker 6: Oh, okay.
• 1:11:16
  Speaker 9: All right.
• 1:11:16
  Speaker 2: So you're okay with other people's feet?
• 1:11:18
  Speaker 3: Absolutely.
• 1:11:18
  Speaker 10: But Chris is seeing them out and about way too often,
• 1:11:22
  Speaker 10: and I sympathize with that.
• 1:11:23
  Speaker 3: Cover up your feet. Okay. I don't want to see them.
• 1:11:26
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I agree with that when you're out and about.
• 1:11:29
  Speaker 4: Put a thing, something called a.
• 1:11:31
  Speaker 3: Shoe. That's what it is. A shoe. That's what it is.
• 1:11:34
  Speaker 2: Or maybe you could wear a shoe.
• 1:11:35
  Speaker 1: Or, I don't know.
• 1:11:35
  Speaker 3: It covers your feet. That's a good idea. Socks with
• 1:11:38
  Speaker 3: your sandals? Socks with your sandals. I'm okay with that.
• 1:11:41
  Speaker 2: That's not a great look.
• 1:11:42
  Speaker 3: But it's okay. But better than your assy ass feet.
• 1:11:46
  Speaker 3: Gotta think of the greater good.
• 1:11:48
  Speaker 8: All right.
• 1:11:48
  Speaker 2: There's more coming up. Oh, we got Steve Dace next.
• 1:11:56
  Speaker 6: This is Pat Gray Unleashed.
• 1:12:10
  Speaker 2: Great to have you with us 888-933-93 is an article
• 1:12:14
  Speaker 2: um we are joined right now by steve days host
• 1:12:17
  Speaker 2: of the steve days program which you can hear uh
• 1:12:21
  Speaker 2: weekdays at noon eastern 11 central here on the blaze
• 1:12:25
  Speaker 2: uh steve welcome.
• 1:12:27
  Speaker 1: Good morning, guys.
• 1:12:28
  Speaker 3: How are you?
• 1:12:28
  Speaker 2: Doing good.
• 1:12:29
  Speaker 3: Doing good.
• 1:12:30
  Speaker 2: Wanted to talk to you about, well, we saw each
• 1:12:32
  Speaker 2: other at the little soiree that we had the other night,
• 1:12:35
  Speaker 2: and I was very heartened by your certitude on the
• 1:12:39
  Speaker 2: fact that Ken Paxton is going to beat... uh james
• 1:12:44
  Speaker 2: talarico steve now we initially thought that and we initially
• 1:12:48
  Speaker 2: said it on the air but man have we been
• 1:12:50
  Speaker 2: beaten down ever since because uh he is everywhere and
• 1:12:55
  Speaker 2: at first at least paxton ads were nowhere paxton wasn't being.
• 1:12:59
  Speaker 3: Seen anywhere they are now.
• 1:13:01
  Speaker 2: Yeah and he is now but uh hopefully it's not
• 1:13:05
  Speaker 2: too late so what are your thoughts on that on
• 1:13:08
  Speaker 2: that race Well.
• 1:13:11
  Speaker 8: On your race in particular, I do think Ken will win.
• 1:13:15
  Speaker 8: I think Tallarico's not Beto or work. I get the
• 1:13:19
  Speaker 8: similarities in terms of cycles, but the amount of oppo
• 1:13:23
  Speaker 8: that has already been unearthed on Tallarico, the amount of
• 1:13:27
  Speaker 8: things that can be shown to the wider Texas audience
• 1:13:34
  Speaker 8: is voluminous. I mean, it is rare to see a
• 1:13:37
  Speaker 8: candidate who is just so openly avowed. I mean, forget
• 1:13:41
  Speaker 8: the fact he's essentially a 1930s Unitarian minister, heretical Unitarian
• 1:13:47
  Speaker 8: minister manifested as a candidate. He's just on record anathemizing
• 1:13:52
  Speaker 8: essentially every tradition of the state of Texas.
• 1:13:55
  Speaker 3: Yes, for sure.
• 1:13:56
  Speaker 5: Right?
• 1:13:56
  Speaker 1: I mean, there's just.
• 1:13:59
  Speaker 8: Nothing about the identity of Texans that he has not
• 1:14:01
  Speaker 8: insulted at some point in time.
• 1:14:03
  Speaker 3: That's for sure.
• 1:14:03
  Speaker 6: Yeah.
• 1:14:04
  Speaker 1: So I do think Ken will win. I think it'll
• 1:14:06
  Speaker 1: be costly though.
• 1:14:07
  Speaker 8: And I think some revenue that could have been spent
• 1:14:09
  Speaker 8: in some other places will need to be spent in
• 1:14:12
  Speaker 8: order to carry him across the finish line.
• 1:14:14
  Speaker 1: That's what I think inevitably will happen.
• 1:14:16
  Speaker 3: And they're doing that now.
• 1:14:17
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 1:14:18
  Speaker 2: Heretic is a good word for James Tallarico. I mean,
• 1:14:21
  Speaker 2: that guy is continually preaching the opposite of Christianity. And
• 1:14:27
  Speaker 2: I just hope that that lands with Texans as well,
• 1:14:31
  Speaker 2: because I don't know how closely they're paying attention to
• 1:14:34
  Speaker 2: this race and maybe not at all yet. But the
• 1:14:38
  Speaker 2: latest poll we just saw was he was still three
• 1:14:41
  Speaker 2: points up on Paxton. And I know we got a
• 1:14:43
  Speaker 2: ways to go, but... It's just a little disturbing.
• 1:14:45
  Speaker 8: Well, I would take a look at that poll, honestly,
• 1:14:47
  Speaker 8: given how badly Ken has been outspent.
• 1:14:49
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 1:14:50
  Speaker 8: You know, we just got done polling our state here
• 1:14:52
  Speaker 8: in Iowa, where the president has been the most popular
• 1:14:56
  Speaker 8: politician in our state for about 10 years.
• 1:14:58
  Speaker 1: His favorable right now is minus 15.
• 1:15:01
  Speaker 12: Ooh, wow.
• 1:15:01
  Speaker 3: In Iowa?
• 1:15:01
  Speaker 1: That's what we're doing in Iowa. His favorable is minus
• 1:15:05
  Speaker 1: 15 in Iowa.
• 1:15:06
  Speaker 12: Wow.
• 1:15:06
  Speaker 8: So I would imagine the president's favorables are the lowest
• 1:15:09
  Speaker 8: they've ever been across the country.
• 1:15:11
  Speaker 3: Across the country.
• 1:15:12
  Speaker 1: And Ken's been dramatically outspent.
• 1:15:14
  Speaker 9: Mm-hmm.
• 1:15:15
  Speaker 8: You know, Ken's had some personal problems that has also
• 1:15:17
  Speaker 8: caused some of his own base to be slow to
• 1:15:19
  Speaker 8: get on board.
• 1:15:20
  Speaker 2: Right.
• 1:15:20
  Speaker 8: Let's just say you're probably, if you're a pastor, not
• 1:15:23
  Speaker 8: overly eager to have Ken come and speak in.
• 1:15:24
  Speaker 3: Your church, just being honest.
• 1:15:26
  Speaker 1: I mean, you guys brought me on to give you
• 1:15:28
  Speaker 1: an analysis.
• 1:15:28
  Speaker 3: I'll give it to you.
• 1:15:30
  Speaker 1: Not all of Ken's problems are not his own. Some
• 1:15:32
  Speaker 1: of them are his own.
• 1:15:34
  Speaker 3: Absolutely.
• 1:15:34
  Speaker 8: But if you're telling me after all of that, he's
• 1:15:36
  Speaker 8: only down by three with seven weeks to go, I'd
• 1:15:38
  Speaker 8: be pretty concerned if I were James Tallarico.
• 1:15:42
  Speaker 2: Okay.
• 1:15:42
  Speaker 5: Okay.
• 1:15:42
  Speaker 3: I like that. It's a better way to look at it.
• 1:15:45
  Speaker 3: It really is. I like that spin a lot.
• 1:15:47
  Speaker 8: I mean, how is Paxton's campaign going to be in
• 1:15:49
  Speaker 8: any worse shape over the next seven weeks than it's
• 1:15:51
  Speaker 8: been in up until this point?
• 1:15:52
  Speaker 3: It can't.
• 1:15:53
  Speaker 8: You're at the, you're at the, you're, you know, it's
• 1:15:55
  Speaker 8: a little bit like buy Oregon for the big 10
• 1:15:57
  Speaker 8: championship now.
• 1:15:58
  Speaker 4: Right.
• 1:15:58
  Speaker 11: Okay.
• 1:15:59
  Speaker 8: Because you're never going to get a team that talented,
• 1:16:01
  Speaker 8: more lower at 18 to one ever again, the rest
• 1:16:04
  Speaker 8: of your life to win, to win because they lost
• 1:16:06
  Speaker 8: a game that wasn't even a conference game.
• 1:16:08
  Speaker 5: Right.
• 1:16:08
  Speaker 3: Okay.
• 1:16:08
  Speaker 8: And so it's not possible for the president's favorables to
• 1:16:12
  Speaker 8: go any lower than they are or for Paxton's campaign
• 1:16:15
  Speaker 8: to be, have been in any worse shape than it
• 1:16:17
  Speaker 8: was up until this juncture. And you're telling me that
• 1:16:19
  Speaker 8: Tallarico is up by a handful of points. I'd, I'd
• 1:16:21
  Speaker 8: be pretty concerned if I were the Tallarico candidate.
• 1:16:23
  Speaker 3: I like your idea for that bet on Oregon.
• 1:16:25
  Speaker 10: I think I'm going to put some money right now.
• 1:16:27
  Speaker 2: He's actually going to Calchi right now, probably.
• 1:16:30
  Speaker 1: There you go.
• 1:16:32
  Speaker 2: So what about the overall midterms? What do you see
• 1:16:35
  Speaker 2: happening with the House and Senate?
• 1:16:37
  Speaker 8: Well, I think the House has always been a difficult poll.
• 1:16:39
  Speaker 8: I think the In true Republican fashion, when they were
• 1:16:42
  Speaker 8: handed a gift with the redistricting, they looked that thing
• 1:16:46
  Speaker 8: right at that, looked that horse right in the mouth.
• 1:16:48
  Speaker 11: Right.
• 1:16:48
  Speaker 8: And so did they give us a more favorable map
• 1:16:51
  Speaker 8: than we would have had if the Democrats were in charge?
• 1:16:54
  Speaker 1: Sure. But did they give us what we needed?
• 1:16:56
  Speaker 8: No. And that's kind of a microcosm of really what
• 1:16:59
  Speaker 8: Republican Congresses have been our entire lives, except for like
• 1:17:02
  Speaker 8: the first six months of Newt Gingrich's contract with America.
• 1:17:04
  Speaker 1: That's that was 30 years ago.
• 1:17:06
  Speaker 8: That's essentially what Republican Congresses are. They are a microcosm
• 1:17:10
  Speaker 8: of the party. The party very much struggles to govern
• 1:17:13
  Speaker 8: on a federal level because, frankly, we took decades of
• 1:17:15
  Speaker 8: primary cycles off. And there's just too many people that
• 1:17:19
  Speaker 8: are entrenched with ours after their name that don't even
• 1:17:22
  Speaker 8: have to have really cognitive ability, let alone share our
• 1:17:25
  Speaker 8: values in any way, shape or form. And they can
• 1:17:28
  Speaker 8: just stymie the will of the people every time we
• 1:17:31
  Speaker 8: win an election.
• 1:17:31
  Speaker 3: And they do.
• 1:17:32
  Speaker 8: Trump's made some inroads where that is concerned. But I
• 1:17:35
  Speaker 8: also think that when I get to heaven, a question
• 1:17:37
  Speaker 8: I'm going to have to ask Jesus is, why did
• 1:17:40
  Speaker 8: he still endorse a bunch of these rhinos in primaries?
• 1:17:42
  Speaker 8: That's what I'm just going to need to know. I
• 1:17:43
  Speaker 8: just have to know the answer to that. And I
• 1:17:45
  Speaker 8: won't be able to rest. I won't be able to
• 1:17:47
  Speaker 8: forsake or to take on eternal rest until I get
• 1:17:49
  Speaker 8: an answer to that question.
• 1:17:51
  Speaker 4: You're going to have to wait over there for a
• 1:17:52
  Speaker 4: little while. Just go stand over there.
• 1:17:56
  Speaker 8: And so because of that, so for example, you had
• 1:18:01
  Speaker 8: Republicans basically give us like a B minus redistricting. They
• 1:18:05
  Speaker 8: did not go to the depths that Democrats would. I
• 1:18:08
  Speaker 8: think some of that, frankly, is because in red states,
• 1:18:10
  Speaker 8: they were concerned black athletes would walk off the college
• 1:18:13
  Speaker 8: football teams if they took away all the racial gerrymandering.
• 1:18:17
  Speaker 8: And remember, the Congressional Black Caucus did actually encourage that.
• 1:18:21
  Speaker 8: And so Republicans, particularly in the red states, you know.
• 1:18:24
  Speaker 8: back down a little bit. And now what's funny is
• 1:18:26
  Speaker 8: now the courts are throwing out their B and B
• 1:18:28
  Speaker 8: minus redistricting. So they might as well just gone for
• 1:18:31
  Speaker 8: the whole thing. If there was a chance, that is
• 1:18:34
  Speaker 8: so Republican party. I mean, always attack what you're not
• 1:18:38
  Speaker 8: willing to kill. That's a total violation of one of
• 1:18:41
  Speaker 8: my 10 commandments of political warfare. And so and so the,
• 1:18:44
  Speaker 8: the redistricting helped shrink some of the margin. Like Democrats can't,
• 1:18:48
  Speaker 8: I don't believe we have like a 30 seat, uh,
• 1:18:50
  Speaker 8: win like what they had in 2018, for example, because
• 1:18:53
  Speaker 8: I don't think there's that many, um, competitive seats across
• 1:18:56
  Speaker 8: the country.
• 1:18:58
  Speaker 1: Um, but, but you know, here's the problem.
• 1:19:00
  Speaker 8: Even if we lose the house by two or three seats, um,
• 1:19:03
  Speaker 8: you know, they're going to act like they have a
• 1:19:05
  Speaker 8: 30 seat majority. We need a 30 seat majority to
• 1:19:07
  Speaker 8: act like we have a three seat majority.
• 1:19:09
  Speaker 3: Right.
• 1:19:09
  Speaker 8: And so it doesn't really matter to me what their
• 1:19:12
  Speaker 8: majority is. They're going to be in lockstep pagan occultist anyway.
• 1:19:15
  Speaker 8: And so it's a pass fail thing. It's not graded
• 1:19:18
  Speaker 8: on a curve. So I think the house is very tough.
• 1:19:22
  Speaker 8: I don't think there's any chance at all of reclaiming
• 1:19:24
  Speaker 8: the house as long as we continue to play toll
• 1:19:26
  Speaker 8: booth manager of the Strait of Hormuz.
• 1:19:28
  Speaker 11: Okay.
• 1:19:28
  Speaker 8: So I'm old enough to have watched us play parking
• 1:19:30
  Speaker 8: lot attendant of a rock And now I'm watching us
• 1:19:33
  Speaker 8: play tollbooth manager of the Strait of Hormuz.
• 1:19:35
  Speaker 1: If they're being promised, we wouldn't do such things. But
• 1:19:37
  Speaker 1: here we are.
• 1:19:37
  Speaker 3: All right.
• 1:19:38
  Speaker 8: Now, the Senate is different. The Senate map is so favorable.
• 1:19:42
  Speaker 8: I'm not I don't think even the Republicans could blow
• 1:19:44
  Speaker 8: this one. Now, it might end up being it might
• 1:19:47
  Speaker 8: end up being 50 50 with J.D.
• 1:19:48
  Speaker 1: Casting the tie.
• 1:19:50
  Speaker 8: But but there's actually some places where we that that
• 1:19:54
  Speaker 8: this environment should not be competitive that are. Like, for example,
• 1:19:59
  Speaker 8: right now, I'm more optimistic about New Hampshire and Minnesota
• 1:20:02
  Speaker 8: than I am North Carolina and Georgia on the Senate side. Frankly,
• 1:20:05
  Speaker 8: the candidates in both of those states, I'm not a
• 1:20:07
  Speaker 8: big fan of this new style of Republicanism, but New
• 1:20:10
  Speaker 8: Hampshireans are a big fan of it. And so he's
• 1:20:13
  Speaker 8: a dynamic candidate there. Michelle Tafoya is a dynamic candidate
• 1:20:16
  Speaker 8: in Minnesota who's running a.
• 1:20:17
  Speaker 1: Really good race.
• 1:20:19
  Speaker 8: The Republican in Georgia, Mike Collins, is not running a
• 1:20:21
  Speaker 8: really good race. And the nominee in North Carolina, which
• 1:20:23
  Speaker 8: I hate to say out loud because they're paying me
• 1:20:25
  Speaker 8: to come speak there next week. But I just tell
• 1:20:27
  Speaker 8: you what I really think. And you guys decide if
• 1:20:29
  Speaker 8: you want to continue to pay me for that or not.
• 1:20:30
  Speaker 8: But the Republican candidate in North Carolina leaves a lot
• 1:20:33
  Speaker 8: to be desired and needs to dramatically improve his race,
• 1:20:35
  Speaker 8: considering he's also running against a popular statewide Democrat in
• 1:20:39
  Speaker 8: the state as well. And so we can do those
• 1:20:42
  Speaker 8: kinds of tradeoffs because the overall Senate map is in
• 1:20:44
  Speaker 8: our favor and we have the majority vote. So I
• 1:20:48
  Speaker 8: would give Republicans probably 60, 65% odds of holding the
• 1:20:52
  Speaker 8: Senate with seven weeks to go. I'd probably give Republicans
• 1:20:55
  Speaker 8: about 30, 35% odds of holding the House with about
• 1:20:58
  Speaker 8: seven weeks to go.
• 1:20:59
  Speaker 2: It's really frustrating. You mentioned what we do with majorities,
• 1:21:02
  Speaker 2: and that has been a bane of our existence the
• 1:21:06
  Speaker 2: last couple of years. We waste it every time. Had
• 1:21:09
  Speaker 2: the House, had the Senate, got the presidency, got the
• 1:21:12
  Speaker 2: Supreme Court. We can't get anything done even so. Why
• 1:21:17
  Speaker 2: is it Republicans are so feckless?
• 1:21:19
  Speaker 8: There's too many institutional Republicans, corporatized Republicans. I used to
• 1:21:25
  Speaker 8: call them Republicans because we had this term rhino to
• 1:21:28
  Speaker 8: describe like the Chris Christie's of the world. And to me,
• 1:21:31
  Speaker 8: like a rhino is a Republican who's not good enough
• 1:21:33
  Speaker 8: to be on the Democrat team in a blue state.
• 1:21:35
  Speaker 1: And so they just become a Republican, right? But they're
• 1:21:37
  Speaker 1: really a Democrat.
• 1:21:39
  Speaker 8: But I think there's this thing called Republicans and you
• 1:21:42
  Speaker 8: find them a lot in states like yours, deep red
• 1:21:44
  Speaker 8: states and guys like John Cornyn. I remember being at
• 1:21:47
  Speaker 8: CPAC once, like maybe the last time I'll ever go
• 1:21:50
  Speaker 8: And I remember being at CPAC once and Mitch McConnell
• 1:21:52
  Speaker 8: came walking by me waving an AR-15. I guarantee he's
• 1:21:55
  Speaker 8: never fired that thing a day in his life.
• 1:21:57
  Speaker 3: No way. Okay.
• 1:21:57
  Speaker 1: But these guys kind of know.
• 1:21:59
  Speaker 8: In these Southern states where they're from, they kind of
• 1:22:02
  Speaker 8: know how to patronize audiences like yours and mine. And
• 1:22:05
  Speaker 8: what talking points our audiences want to hear, because they're
• 1:22:08
  Speaker 8: doing eight days a week for labor. And so they're
• 1:22:11
  Speaker 8: not really paying deep attention. So they know what sloganeering
• 1:22:14
  Speaker 8: they want. They know what talking points they want. They
• 1:22:16
  Speaker 8: know what messages to feed them, what cultural tropes and
• 1:22:20
  Speaker 8: triggers to pull. And then they get reelected in these
• 1:22:24
  Speaker 8: low turnout primaries, get to Washington, govern like Democrats. And
• 1:22:27
  Speaker 8: we do this every two years in the House or
• 1:22:29
  Speaker 8: every six years in the Senate. And they're entrenched by
• 1:22:32
  Speaker 8: corporate interest. I've seen this really up close and personal
• 1:22:34
  Speaker 8: in my home state of Iowa, where over the last
• 1:22:36
  Speaker 8: 15 years, some of us have worked very hard to
• 1:22:38
  Speaker 8: turn this from a purple state into a very red state.
• 1:22:41
  Speaker 8: But if you look at our entire congressional delegation, it
• 1:22:44
  Speaker 8: is all to the left of where our entire legislature
• 1:22:46
  Speaker 8: and governor has been for the last 10 years. Because
• 1:22:49
  Speaker 8: the amount of money that it takes, even in a
• 1:22:51
  Speaker 8: low population state like Iowa, the amount of money it
• 1:22:55
  Speaker 8: takes to pierce the veil of these corporate interests that
• 1:22:58
  Speaker 8: protect all these institutional Republicans is extraordinary. And so that's
• 1:23:02
  Speaker 8: why we're probably a couple of primary cycles away from
• 1:23:07
  Speaker 8: actually being able to govern effectively as a party at
• 1:23:09
  Speaker 8: the federal level.
• 1:23:11
  Speaker 3: Man, I tell you, Jeffy isn't sold.
• 1:23:14
  Speaker 10: I'll tell you, man, it is so frustrating what Republicans
• 1:23:17
  Speaker 10: do in this game that they play and how they
• 1:23:19
  Speaker 10: earn the votes, like you said, and they get back
• 1:23:21
  Speaker 10: into office and then they do nothing with the power
• 1:23:23
  Speaker 10: that we elect them thinking that they're going to do.
• 1:23:26
  Speaker 3: Crazy us.
• 1:23:27
  Speaker 10: But you did a great job over at the forum
• 1:23:29
  Speaker 10: event here in Dallas. And I wrote down something that
• 1:23:31
  Speaker 10: you said that was so simple, yet so profound, Steve.
• 1:23:34
  Speaker 10: You said, as we look ahead to not only the midterms,
• 1:23:38
  Speaker 10: but 2028 and beyond, you said, we don't know what
• 1:23:42
  Speaker 10: Republicans will do with power, but we know what Democrats
• 1:23:46
  Speaker 10: will do with power.
• 1:23:47
  Speaker 3: And that says it all. And it's just so we're
• 1:23:52
  Speaker 3: always in this position, man.
• 1:23:54
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 1:23:55
  Speaker 8: I mean, essentially what they have is a movement. And
• 1:23:58
  Speaker 8: in many respects, what we have is an industry. And
• 1:24:03
  Speaker 8: to give us the benefit of the doubt, this is
• 1:24:06
  Speaker 8: unavoidable on our side. We don't have a series of
• 1:24:08
  Speaker 8: billionaires who just don't care what the return on investment is.
• 1:24:13
  Speaker 8: I remember before I joined Sierra TV and then later
• 1:24:16
  Speaker 8: joined The Blaze, I did an interview with, I won't
• 1:24:20
  Speaker 8: name the brand, but with another major conservative platform, And
• 1:24:24
  Speaker 8: they were they were at this was in 2015. And
• 1:24:27
  Speaker 8: it was a very wealthy family that was starting this.
• 1:24:30
  Speaker 8: And so God bless them for doing it. But they
• 1:24:31
  Speaker 8: were like adamant. We're going to count every view. We're
• 1:24:34
  Speaker 8: going to make sure we count everything. We're not just
• 1:24:35
  Speaker 8: giving this money away. And I get, you know, you
• 1:24:38
  Speaker 8: worked hard for your money, not wanting to give it away.
• 1:24:40
  Speaker 8: Don't like giving mine away either. But when we're up
• 1:24:42
  Speaker 8: against people who view keeping MSNBC on the air. and
• 1:24:46
  Speaker 8: giving them major corporate ads for viewership that would not
• 1:24:49
  Speaker 8: justify it.
• 1:24:50
  Speaker 1: We have shows on this network.
• 1:24:52
  Speaker 8: I mean, we have shows on this network that will
• 1:24:55
  Speaker 8: outperform major day parts of linear networks like CNN and MSNBC.
• 1:25:01
  Speaker 8: And so why do they have these major corporate sponsors?
• 1:25:03
  Speaker 1: It's a tithe.
• 1:25:03
  Speaker 8: They do this for the sake of the message, not
• 1:25:05
  Speaker 8: for the sake of the ROI. And we don't have
• 1:25:12
  Speaker 8: enough of that on our side. We didn't have USAID
• 1:25:15
  Speaker 8: and NGOs handing out checks to keep us all going
• 1:25:19
  Speaker 8: like the politicos of the world either. And so because
• 1:25:22
  Speaker 8: of this, we have to be a profit-generating movement. And
• 1:25:27
  Speaker 8: it's really hard sometimes to be a movement when profit is...
• 1:25:30
  Speaker 8: Let me put it this way. It's hard to be
• 1:25:32
  Speaker 8: a profit... when the prophet is always first and foremost
• 1:25:36
  Speaker 8: in everybody's mind, okay? And that's a major structural disadvantage
• 1:25:43
  Speaker 8: that we have to the other side. And so in
• 1:25:45
  Speaker 8: many respects, they act like a religion. They act ecclesiastically,
• 1:25:49
  Speaker 8: they act liturgically, And we act industrially. And that's why,
• 1:25:53
  Speaker 8: despite we have more numbers than them, we find ourselves
• 1:25:55
  Speaker 8: structurally outflanked. They are there in this and the structure
• 1:25:59
  Speaker 8: of their party is also way different. The debate, the
• 1:26:03
  Speaker 8: hardcore activist donor base of the Democratic Party is to
• 1:26:06
  Speaker 8: the left of the average Democrat that is your neighbor
• 1:26:09
  Speaker 8: in a suburb in Dallas. OK, on our side, it's
• 1:26:13
  Speaker 8: it's it's it's it's the opposite. The activist is harder,
• 1:26:16
  Speaker 8: is more to the right, but the donor is more
• 1:26:18
  Speaker 8: to the left. And so there's that pin and pull
• 1:26:20
  Speaker 8: yet again. You know, the company that we had, that
• 1:26:23
  Speaker 8: I used to be with before we formed, we joined
• 1:26:24
  Speaker 8: with a blaze with CRTV. It was started by a
• 1:26:27
  Speaker 8: very wealthy individual who started it because he was one
• 1:26:30
  Speaker 8: of the biggest bundlers for the Tea Party era under
• 1:26:32
  Speaker 8: John Boehner. Got nothing that he was promised and got
• 1:26:34
  Speaker 8: so pissed off that he said, I'm going to start
• 1:26:36
  Speaker 8: my own company to hold these people accountable.
• 1:26:38
  Speaker 10: Right.
• 1:26:39
  Speaker 8: That's rare on our side of the aisle. And they
• 1:26:42
  Speaker 8: also over there, there's two forms of theories of politics.
• 1:26:46
  Speaker 8: One is access based and one is leverage based. We
• 1:26:49
  Speaker 8: are in an access-based paradigm on the right, right? I
• 1:26:51
  Speaker 8: need relationships to advance. I want to have this guy
• 1:26:54
  Speaker 8: come and speak. I want to make sure this donor
• 1:26:57
  Speaker 8: cuts a check and that I get this son appointed
• 1:27:01
  Speaker 8: to this Eagle Scout and this business partner appointed to
• 1:27:04
  Speaker 8: this ambassadorship. And they primarily practice leverage-based politics over there.
• 1:27:10
  Speaker 8: And it's why they have demonstrably moved their party to
• 1:27:12
  Speaker 8: the left. All of us are old enough to remember
• 1:27:14
  Speaker 8: when Bill Clinton signed the Defense of Marriage Act into
• 1:27:17
  Speaker 8: law in 1998, right? Well, today, you can't get elected
• 1:27:21
  Speaker 8: dog catcher anywhere, even in the deepest red state. You're
• 1:27:23
  Speaker 8: not getting elected dog catcher as a Democrat if you're
• 1:27:26
  Speaker 8: not in a gay marriage yourself willing to or transing
• 1:27:28
  Speaker 8: your kid publicly on behalf of Gaia.
• 1:27:31
  Speaker 3: It's really true. That is absolutely true.
• 1:27:34
  Speaker 2: Turning to the presidential election in 28, I am a
• 1:27:38
  Speaker 2: big fan, as I think you are, of Ron DeSantis.
• 1:27:42
  Speaker 2: And yet, nobody talks about him. What happened to Ron
• 1:27:46
  Speaker 2: DeSantis as a Viable candidate for president of the United States.
• 1:27:51
  Speaker 2: I like J.D.
• 1:27:52
  Speaker 1: Vance.
• 1:27:53
  Speaker 2: I like Marco Rubio, but I love Ron DeSantis. And
• 1:27:57
  Speaker 2: I think that the job that he has done in
• 1:27:59
  Speaker 2: Florida is incredible. It's incredible. It's incomparable. Nobody can touch it.
• 1:28:04
  Speaker 2: And yet the perception seems to be that we're not
• 1:28:09
  Speaker 2: even going to consider him. Do you have that? Do
• 1:28:12
  Speaker 2: you have that perception or do you? Is there a
• 1:28:15
  Speaker 2: reason for that? What happened to him?
• 1:28:18
  Speaker 8: Did you guys just get together and say, let's ask
• 1:28:20
  Speaker 8: all the questions that's going to make our audience hate
• 1:28:22
  Speaker 8: Steve Dace?
• 1:28:23
  Speaker 14: Did you guys just huddle together and do that?
• 1:28:27
  Speaker 8: No.
• 1:28:27
  Speaker 12: Okay.
• 1:28:27
  Speaker 4: No. All right.
• 1:28:28
  Speaker 8: Because, listen, I woke up in a good mood this morning,
• 1:28:31
  Speaker 8: but since you're asking all of these questions, my mood
• 1:28:33
  Speaker 8: is changing. So I love Ron DeSantis, as you do.
• 1:28:39
  Speaker 8: I expended a lot of political capital for Ron DeSantis'
• 1:28:42
  Speaker 8: 2024 run. But the odds that Ron DeSantis, looking back
• 1:28:47
  Speaker 8: on it now, and Ron at first was right to run.
• 1:28:52
  Speaker 1: All the data had flipped on Trump. People had moved on.
• 1:28:55
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 1:28:55
  Speaker 2: So it's the Trump thing, right?
• 1:28:58
  Speaker 1: Absolutely.
• 1:28:58
  Speaker 8: And I would point your audience to go look at
• 1:29:00
  Speaker 8: the Real Clear Politics polling average of the Republican primary.
• 1:29:04
  Speaker 8: Go look at that average on March 23rd, 2023. It's
• 1:29:08
  Speaker 8: basically a tie between DeSantis and Trump.
• 1:29:10
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 1:29:10
  Speaker 8: And then go look on April 3rd, 2024 or 2023.
• 1:29:15
  Speaker 8: And Trump is up by like 20 points.
• 1:29:17
  Speaker 1: What happened?
• 1:29:18
  Speaker 3: Conviction.
• 1:29:18
  Speaker 1: Trump got indicted on March 31st.
• 1:29:20
  Speaker 8: Geez and looking back on it that primary ended it
• 1:29:24
  Speaker 8: ended that date it ended that date now the problem
• 1:29:27
  Speaker 8: if you're wrong is you've already put months of this
• 1:29:28
  Speaker 8: infrastructure in place right jobs have.
• 1:29:31
  Speaker 1: Been hired plans have been made and then.
• 1:29:33
  Speaker 8: To yank it plus you still don't know if trump's
• 1:29:35
  Speaker 8: going to jail or there's a long way to go
• 1:29:37
  Speaker 8: in that right but yeah with the benefit of hindsight
• 1:29:40
  Speaker 8: we can now look back on it and say the
• 1:29:42
  Speaker 8: primary ended march 31st 2023 how is that germane to
• 1:29:45
  Speaker 8: your question Because we're probably going to lose the House.
• 1:29:48
  Speaker 8: And Trump is going to be under impeachment threats. And
• 1:29:51
  Speaker 8: Hegseth will be under impeachment threats. Everybody you like. Everybody
• 1:29:55
  Speaker 8: in the administration you like. Hegseth, RFK, Rubio, they're all
• 1:29:58
  Speaker 8: going to be under impeachment threats from the Democrat House
• 1:30:01
  Speaker 8: day one. Trump is at his strongest when attacked. Trump
• 1:30:06
  Speaker 8: is the best defensive coordinator maybe in the history of
• 1:30:08
  Speaker 8: American politics. He is the Buddy Ryan of defensive coordinators
• 1:30:15
  Speaker 8: in American politics. When you attack him, something supernatural occurs.
• 1:30:20
  Speaker 8: And he's not a great offensive coordinator in terms of
• 1:30:24
  Speaker 8: assembling a wide team of people in various interests within
• 1:30:28
  Speaker 8: the GOP to keep them on message. But as a
• 1:30:30
  Speaker 8: defensive coordinator, there's never been a better politician in American history.
• 1:30:34
  Speaker 8: Our people are all going to rally behind him again
• 1:30:36
  Speaker 8: all of next year. Our shows will be, if we
• 1:30:39
  Speaker 8: lose the House, all impeachment-a-thons, impeachment-paloozas, and they're coming for
• 1:30:43
  Speaker 8: our guy, and our audience is going to eat it up.
• 1:30:45
  Speaker 1: What does that mean?
• 1:30:46
  Speaker 8: What it means is normally a president who's a lame
• 1:30:49
  Speaker 8: duck who then loses his midterm, his prospects of influencing
• 1:30:52
  Speaker 8: the next primary would greatly diminish in every other cycle
• 1:30:56
  Speaker 8: except this coming one. Trump's grip on our primary electorate
• 1:30:59
  Speaker 8: will strengthen, actually, and it's really just a primary of one, okay?
• 1:31:05
  Speaker 8: And I just cannot foresee where Trump could endorse somebody
• 1:31:09
  Speaker 8: as much as Trump. I've been aware all along that
• 1:31:12
  Speaker 8: Trump and Ron get along great. They pretty much have
• 1:31:15
  Speaker 8: since the primary ended. They've talked regularly. This whole thing
• 1:31:18
  Speaker 8: that you see, they golf regularly. This whole thing you
• 1:31:20
  Speaker 8: see between warring influencers online, it's all fake and gay.
• 1:31:25
  Speaker 1: None of it's real. Where the two men are concerned.
• 1:31:27
  Speaker 8: But it's one thing for the king to go ahead
• 1:31:29
  Speaker 8: and bring back the wayward prince. It's another thing for
• 1:31:32
  Speaker 8: him to say, you are my heir. That's not how
• 1:31:35
  Speaker 8: kingdoms typically work. And so kings get to choose their
• 1:31:39
  Speaker 8: successor as long as they're alive. And I think we're
• 1:31:42
  Speaker 8: largely just having a primary of one. Now, DeSantis is
• 1:31:46
  Speaker 8: young enough now that there's a chance he could return
• 1:31:49
  Speaker 8: in another era once the Trump era has maybe been
• 1:31:51
  Speaker 8: seen its way through. But on the other token, if
• 1:31:54
  Speaker 8: the Trump era is successful, I don't see an opening
• 1:31:56
  Speaker 8: for him there. which is why I think he'd be
• 1:31:58
  Speaker 8: an awesome Supreme Court justice.
• 1:32:00
  Speaker 1: Okay.
• 1:32:01
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 1:32:02
  Speaker 2: Might have to settle for that. Steve, we're out of time,
• 1:32:05
  Speaker 2: but thanks for joining us.
• 1:32:06
  Speaker 3: You bet.
• 1:32:07
  Speaker 2: We'll be watching for you on the show today. Next
• 1:32:09
  Speaker 2: time we've got to talk about the University of Michigan.
• 1:32:10
  Speaker 2: Next time we've got to talk about Michigan.
• 1:32:12
  Speaker 3: Yeah, we have.
• 1:32:12
  Speaker 2: And the fact that the head coach there is now
• 1:32:14
  Speaker 2: the former head coach of the Godless Animals.
• 1:32:17
  Speaker 3: And so good luck with him. And I'm a fan.
• 1:32:20
  Speaker 8: I wasn't sure the first Saturday, but after last Saturday.
• 1:32:22
  Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
• 1:32:23
  Speaker 3: Congratulations. Really redeemed themselves. The first college football team to
• 1:32:26
  Speaker 3: be undefeated after losing their first game.
• 1:32:30
  Speaker 2: Thanks, Steve.
• 1:32:31
  Speaker 3: Appreciate it. All right.
• 1:32:32
  Speaker 2: Are you being lied to? Of course you know the
• 1:32:34
  Speaker 2: answer is yes. Wall Street insists the only way to
• 1:32:38
  Speaker 2: have enough money to retire is to put your life
• 1:32:40
  Speaker 2: savings into a 401k. or an IRA, and then roll
• 1:32:44
  Speaker 2: the dice in the Wall Street casino. But if that
• 1:32:46
  Speaker 2: were true, why do studies show that the average American
• 1:32:49
  Speaker 2: following that advice is going to outlive their savings by
• 1:32:52
  Speaker 2: a staggering 10 years? Not good. It's time to get
• 1:32:56
  Speaker 2: the truth and discover a better way to grow and
• 1:32:59
  Speaker 2: protect your money. That's bank on yourself. It's a proven
• 1:33:02
  Speaker 2: retirement plan alternative. Banks and Wall Street desperately hope you

  Speaker 3: All right.
• 1:34:15
  Speaker 2: Mark Halperin and Larry Connor talked about J.D.
• 1:34:18
  Speaker 3: Vance.
• 1:34:18
  Speaker 2: We were just discussing with Steve moments ago, and here's
• 1:34:21
  Speaker 2: what they had to say about J.D.
• 1:34:23
  Speaker 7: I will say to all the Vance haters out there
• 1:34:26
  Speaker 7: in my life, and there are many, including a lot
• 1:34:29
  Speaker 7: of Republicans, underestimate this guy at your peril. He is
• 1:34:33
  Speaker 7: so new to politics, as he said last night. He's
• 1:34:36
  Speaker 7: got four young kids. He's busy. He's the most influential
• 1:34:40
  Speaker 7: vice president of our lifetime. And yet he gave a
• 1:34:43
  Speaker 7: great speech last night. Again, I'm just talking about technically proficient.
• 1:34:46
  Speaker 7: The guy is a super talented person.
• 1:34:50
  Speaker 16: And can I say for the first time as a
• 1:34:52
  Speaker 16: Republican in the last 50 years paying attention to this stuff,
• 1:34:56
  Speaker 16: he is the first Republican candidate who can come this
• 1:34:59
  Speaker 16: close to doing the I feel your pain thing. And
• 1:35:02
  Speaker 16: and I believe it because of his origins, because of
• 1:35:05
  Speaker 16: his background, because of his family, because of what he knows.
• 1:35:09
  Speaker 16: We Republicans don't like to do the I feel your
• 1:35:11
  Speaker 16: pain thing. You saw it last night at a time
• 1:35:13
  Speaker 16: when it was supposed to be a celebration of all
• 1:35:15
  Speaker 16: the great things we've done. But he made sure he
• 1:35:16
  Speaker 16: said there's pain out there and much of it is
• 1:35:19
  Speaker 16: caused because of bad policies.
• 1:35:20
  Speaker 3: In the past from the government. And I'm here to help.
• 1:35:22
  Speaker 7: Well, it is an opportunity to bring some humility back
• 1:35:25
  Speaker 7: to the conversation.
• 1:35:26
  Speaker 3: You're right, Larry. I agree with that.
• 1:35:28
  Speaker 7: I don't I don't read the chat. I glance at it.
• 1:35:31
  Speaker 7: He's more influential than Dick Cheney. I firmly believe that.
• 1:35:34
  Speaker 3: Oh, yeah.
• 1:35:34
  Speaker 5: OK. OK.
• 1:35:37
  Speaker 2: He's got that going for him.
• 1:35:38
  Speaker 3: Yeah. It's not a high bar, though. No, that's the thing.
• 1:35:42
  Speaker 3: That's the thing.
• 1:35:43
  Speaker 2: Dick Cheney doesn't really inspire confidence in Republicans in year 2026.
• 1:35:50
  Speaker 3: No. All right. We've got overtime coming up, and we'll
