Jeffries Stokes 3rd Impeachment Talks & Tallarico LUVS him a Queen · The 47 Morning Update with Ben Ferguson

• 0:00
  Speaker 1: Iran wants to make a deal.
• 0:02
  Speaker 2: They're not ready, in my opinion. We're going to either
• 0:04
  Speaker 2: make a deal that's good or we're not going to
• 0:06
  Speaker 2: make a deal at all. We've already ended their capability
• 0:09
  Speaker 2: toward getting a nuclear missile. If we would not have
• 0:12
  Speaker 2: used our B-2 bombers, we would right now have an
• 0:15
  Speaker 2: Iran with a nuclear weapon, and they would use it.
• 0:18
  Speaker 2: They would use it very easily. They are considered the
• 0:22
  Speaker 2: You look anywhere in the world, they're considered the most
• 0:24
  Speaker 2: evil country right now in the world. And they've been
• 0:26
  Speaker 2: that for a long time. They've been that for many,
• 0:28
  Speaker 2: many years.
• 0:29
  Speaker 3: You're listening to the 47 Morning Update with Ben Ferguson.
• 0:33
  Speaker 4: Good Saturday morning. Nice to have you with us on
• 0:35
  Speaker 4: the 47 Morning Update. And we've got two stories for
• 0:37
  Speaker 4: you that you may have missed from this week. First up,
• 0:40
  Speaker 4: Democrats are now saying publicly if you reelect them, they're
• 0:44
  Speaker 4: going to weaponize the government to impeach Donald Trump for
• 0:48
  Speaker 4: a third time. What did he do that they believe
• 0:51
  Speaker 4: he should be impeached for this time? Apparently, you voting
• 0:54
  Speaker 4: for him. And we break it down. Also, in a
• 0:57
  Speaker 4: cringeworthy moment, the guy running for the Senate in Texas
• 1:01
  Speaker 4: on the Democratic Party ticket, James Tallarico, was asked a
• 1:05
  Speaker 4: very interesting question. Who is your favorite Texas drag queen?
• 1:10
  Speaker 4: You'll be shocked to hear how fast he answered the
• 1:13
  Speaker 4: question with a big grin. It's the 47 Morning Update,
• 1:18
  Speaker 4: and it starts right now.
• 1:20
  Speaker 3: Story number one.
• 1:21
  Speaker 1: Democrats are now sending a major warning.
• 1:25
  Speaker 4: And they're telling you that if you vote for them,
• 1:27
  Speaker 4: the Democratic Party, and they gain control of the House
• 1:31
  Speaker 4: in November in the midterm elections... Then they're going to
• 1:34
  Speaker 4: go after Donald Trump for a third impeachment. On ABC
• 1:39
  Speaker 4: this week, the leader of the Democratic Party in the House,
• 1:42
  Speaker 4: Hakeem Jeffries, was asked the question.
• 1:45
  Speaker 1: And here's what he said in response.
• 1:47
  Speaker 5: You said hold the crooks accountable.
• 1:48
  Speaker 2: Does that mean that the House is going to be
• 1:49
  Speaker 2: pursuing impeachment proceedings on day one?
• 1:52
  Speaker 5: No, we haven't ruled anything in and we haven't ruled
• 1:55
  Speaker 5: anything out in terms of impeachment. As it relates to accountability,
• 1:59
  Speaker 5: what we're going to do, led by Jamie Raskin and
• 2:01
  Speaker 5: House Committee members, Democrats on the Judiciary Committee, as well
• 2:05
  Speaker 5: as House Democrats on the Oversight Committee, led by Robert Garcia.
• 2:09
  Speaker 5: Both of them are doing a tremendous job. We've got
• 2:11
  Speaker 5: to follow the facts, apply the law, be guided by
• 2:13
  Speaker 5: the Constitution, and then let the chips fall where they may.
• 2:17
  Speaker 4: Now, you listen to Hakeem Jeffries there, and it's pretty clear.
• 2:21
  Speaker 4: We haven't rolled anything out, and we haven't rolled anything
• 2:24
  Speaker 4: out in terms of impeachment yet. Now, Donald Trump has
• 2:28
  Speaker 4: already been impeached not once, but twice by the crazy Democrats.
• 2:32
  Speaker 4: And if you want to remember just how much Democrats
• 2:35
  Speaker 4: hate Donald Trump, specifically Hakeem Jeffries, I want to take
• 2:40
  Speaker 4: you back to January the 24th of 2020. This is
• 2:46
  Speaker 4: Hakeem Jeffries unhinged on the Senate floor. He's the top Democrat,
• 2:52
  Speaker 4: and he was the impeachment manager. Not only does he
• 2:56
  Speaker 4: hate Trump, but he compared Trump to a terrorist, and terrorists,
• 3:00
  Speaker 4: in fact, who attacked America on 9-11.
• 3:04
  Speaker 1: He wasn't done there.
• 3:06
  Speaker 4: He also compared Donald Trump during this impeachment trial back
• 3:10
  Speaker 4: in 2020 to Nazis in Germany and World War II.
• 3:16
  Speaker 5: America is a great nation. We can handle adversity better
• 3:21
  Speaker 5: than any other country in the world. Whenever America has
• 3:27
  Speaker 5: found itself in a tough spot, we always make it
• 3:31
  Speaker 5: to the other side. We were in a tough spot
• 3:36
  Speaker 5: during the Civil War when America was at risk of
• 3:40
  Speaker 5: tearing itself apart, but we made it to the other side.
• 3:46
  Speaker 5: a tough spot in October of 1929 when the stock
• 3:49
  Speaker 5: market collapsed, plunging us into the Great Depression, but we
• 3:54
  Speaker 5: made it to the other side. We were in a
• 3:58
  Speaker 5: tough spot in December of 1941 when a foreign power struck,
• 4:04
  Speaker 5: plunging us into a great conflict with the evil empire
• 4:08
  Speaker 5: of Nazi Germany, but America made it to the other side.
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: We were in a tough spot.
• 4:16
  Speaker 5: In the 1960s dealing with the inherent contradictions of Jim Crow.
• 4:24
  Speaker 1: But we made it.
• 4:27
  Speaker 5: To the other side. We were in a tough spot
• 4:33
  Speaker 5: on September 11th when the towers were struck and young
• 4:39
  Speaker 5: men and women like Jason Crowe was sent to Afghanistan
• 4:46
  Speaker 5: to fight the terrorists there. So we didn't have to
• 4:50
  Speaker 5: fight the terrorists here.
• 4:53
  Speaker 3: And we made it.
• 4:55
  Speaker 5: To the other side. America is a great country. We
• 5:00
  Speaker 5: can handle adversity better than any other nation in the world.
• 5:04
  Speaker 5: But what are we going to do about our character?
• 5:10
  Speaker 5: President Trump tried to cheat and solicit foreign interference in
• 5:18
  Speaker 5: an American election, that is an attack.
• 5:23
  Speaker 1: On our character. That is unhinged. That is the same.
• 5:27
  Speaker 4: It came Jeffries back in 2020, comparing Trump to terrorists
• 5:32
  Speaker 4: who attacked America on nine 11. That would be Al
• 5:34
  Speaker 4: Qaeda and Nazis in war war two.
• 5:38
  Speaker 1: Now he's not done there.
• 5:40
  Speaker 4: And this is a bigger plan now by the Democrats
• 5:43
  Speaker 4: and a warning of what's to come if they went
• 5:45
  Speaker 4: in the midterms. And I'm going to explain more of
• 5:47
  Speaker 4: this to you in a moment. But before we get
• 5:49
  Speaker 4: to that, The stakes right now could not be higher.
• 5:53
  Speaker 1: We've been talking about it.
• 5:54
  Speaker 4: We finally have a president and administration fighting hard for
• 5:57
  Speaker 4: America first. But if we as conservatives lose focus, the
• 6:01
  Speaker 4: same people that we're talking about right now who created
• 6:04
  Speaker 4: this insanity, they're ready and waiting to weaponize the government
• 6:08
  Speaker 4: to go after us and push their progressive agendas.
• 6:12
  Speaker 1: Now, protecting the momentum takes more than just votes.
• 6:14
  Speaker 4: It takes everyday Americans just like you and I staying
• 6:17
  Speaker 4: in that fight for our rights and freedoms. And that's
• 6:20
  Speaker 4: why I want you to know about Patriot Mobile and
• 6:23
  Speaker 4: why I switched my cell phone service to Patriot Mobile.
• 6:27
  Speaker 4: Because they're America's only Christian conservative wireless provider. Now, look,
• 6:32
  Speaker 4: Patriot Mobile offers you premium priority nationwide service on all
• 6:36
  Speaker 4: three major networks. That means you get the best coverage possible.
• 6:40
  Speaker 4: You have unlimited data plans, mobile hotspots, international roaming.
• 6:43
  Speaker 1: They've got it all.
• 6:45
  Speaker 4: And you can switch now easier than ever with technology
• 6:48
  Speaker 4: literally in minutes. Plus, you keep your same phone or
• 6:51
  Speaker 4: upgrade to a new one and keep your same number. Now,
• 6:54
  Speaker 4: this is where the magic happens. Every year, Patriot Mobile
• 6:58
  Speaker 4: takes the money that you pay in for your service,
• 7:01
  Speaker 4: and they put it towards causes defending faith, family, and freedom,
• 7:05
  Speaker 4: contributing millions each year to organizations on the front lines
• 7:09
  Speaker 4: fighting for our God-given rights. Patriot Mobile isn't just talking
• 7:13
  Speaker 4: about saving America. They're actually putting it as their business
• 7:16
  Speaker 4: model every single day. So if you're going to have
• 7:19
  Speaker 4: a cell phone bill, make sure it's doing great work
• 7:22
  Speaker 4: every day and every month when you pay the bill.
• 7:25
  Speaker 4: I'm going to give you a free month of service
• 7:27
  Speaker 4: just so you can switch. PatriotMobile.com slash Ferguson. That's PatriotMobile.com
• 7:33
  Speaker 4: slash Ferguson or 972Patriot.
• 7:37
  Speaker 1: Use the promo code Ferguson. You'll get a free month
• 7:39
  Speaker 1: of service.
• 7:40
  Speaker 4: PatriotMobile.com slash Ferguson or 972Patriot and make that switch today.
• 7:45
  Speaker 1: All right. So let's go back to the plan here.
• 7:48
  Speaker 1: All right.
• 7:49
  Speaker 4: Not only is what he just said an extraordinary statement.
• 7:52
  Speaker 4: But it is clearly a rallying cry that if you
• 7:55
  Speaker 4: hate Donald Trump, we will impeach him if you'll vote
• 7:58
  Speaker 4: for us. That is the game plan. Democrats win the House.
• 8:03
  Speaker 4: He's positioned to become Speaker. And when it comes to
• 8:06
  Speaker 4: impeaching Trump, Jeffries isn't a newcomer as well to this fight.
• 8:10
  Speaker 4: He's been right in the middle of it before. I
• 8:13
  Speaker 4: go back to Donald Trump's first term, the first impeachment.
• 8:16
  Speaker 4: In 19, Democrats launched the Ukrainian impeachment investigation. After Trump's
• 8:21
  Speaker 4: phone call with Zelensky and allegations that Trump had, quote,
• 8:25
  Speaker 4: pressured Ukraine while congressionally approving military assistance was being, they said, withheld. Now, Democrats,
• 8:33
  Speaker 4: they impeached Trump in December 2019 on two articles. They
• 8:36
  Speaker 4: said it was abuse of power, obstruction of Congress. And
• 8:39
  Speaker 4: Akeem Jeffries, the same guy that says, yeah, we'll do
• 8:42
  Speaker 4: it again for a third time. He wasn't just someone
• 8:44
  Speaker 4: who cast a vote and then went home.
• 8:46
  Speaker 3: No, no, no.
• 8:48
  Speaker 4: Nancy Pelosi personally selected Jeffries to become one of the
• 8:52
  Speaker 4: seven House impeachment managers who prosecuted the case against Donald
• 8:56
  Speaker 4: Trump before the United States Senate. Now, Jeffries was literally
• 9:00
  Speaker 4: one of the prosecutors of the first Trump impeachment. And
• 9:04
  Speaker 4: his job was to stay in the Senate chamber, argue
• 9:06
  Speaker 4: that Donald Trump should be convicted and literally removed from office.
• 9:09
  Speaker 4: The overthrowing of an elected president of the United States
• 9:14
  Speaker 4: of America. This was a coup attempt because they knew
• 9:17
  Speaker 4: that what they were impeaching him for was bogus.
• 9:19
  Speaker 1: They didn't care.
• 9:20
  Speaker 4: They hated how the American people voted. And what did
• 9:24
  Speaker 4: they decide to do? They decided to try to overthrow
• 9:28
  Speaker 4: the will of the people. Now, Jeffries, again, claimed that
• 9:32
  Speaker 4: the evidence showed Trump had pressured a foreign government to
• 9:34
  Speaker 4: target an American citizen for his own political benefit and
• 9:38
  Speaker 4: interfere in the 2020 elections. He told senators, lied to them,
• 9:42
  Speaker 4: that impeachment was the constitutional remedy for what Democrats considered
• 9:46
  Speaker 4: the abuse of presidential power. This is how rogue Jeffries went.
• 9:51
  Speaker 4: Jeffries became one of the most recognizable figures of the
• 9:54
  Speaker 4: Senate trial. And remember his famous closing line after Trump's
• 9:58
  Speaker 4: attorneys asked why Democrats are putting the country through impeachment?
• 10:01
  Speaker 4: Jeffrey laid out the Democrats case and finished with a
• 10:05
  Speaker 4: reference to the notorious B.I.G.
• 10:09
  Speaker 1: I'm going to quote. This isn't a joke, what I'm
• 10:11
  Speaker 1: telling you right now. This is real.
• 10:13
  Speaker 4: Quote, and if you don't know, now you know. By
• 10:17
  Speaker 4: the way, the Senate acquitted Donald Trump. But Jeffries, oh no,
• 10:21
  Speaker 4: he wasn't finished. A month later, Jeffries and the other
• 10:24
  Speaker 4: impeachment managers wrote that Trump remained, in their words, quote,
• 10:28
  Speaker 4: lawless and corrupt.
• 10:30
  Speaker 1: And then came January 6th, impeachment number two.
• 10:33
  Speaker 4: The Capitol riot, Jeffries immediately called for Trump's removal from office.
• 10:37
  Speaker 1: Coup attempt number two.
• 10:39
  Speaker 4: On January the 7th, one day after the 6th, Jeffries
• 10:42
  Speaker 4: said the president should be removed from office. And he
• 10:45
  Speaker 4: said all options should be on the table, including impeachment
• 10:47
  Speaker 4: and conviction.
• 10:48
  Speaker 1: Go to jail and removal.
• 10:50
  Speaker 4: Six days later, the House impeached Donald Trump for a
• 10:54
  Speaker 4: second time. And of course, Jeffries voted yes. So now
• 10:59
  Speaker 4: you look at Jeffries. What is he saying? It's a
• 11:03
  Speaker 4: call to arms, folks, to help him overthrow the government again.
• 11:07
  Speaker 4: The will of the people to cancel out your vote.
• 11:12
  Speaker 4: And now this is what he's decided to do, which
• 11:14
  Speaker 4: is to campaign on it. I'm going to say it again.
• 11:17
  Speaker 4: To campaign on it. That is what they're saying. Vote
• 11:23
  Speaker 4: for us and we'll impeach Trump for a third time.
• 11:27
  Speaker 4: We will overthrow the will of the people.
• 11:28
  Speaker 1: Try to for a third time.
• 11:32
  Speaker 4: So if you think this election is about like normal
• 11:35
  Speaker 4: everyday issues, no. If you want to know what Democrats
• 11:39
  Speaker 4: are going to do, this is it. It is going
• 11:42
  Speaker 4: to be lawfare. They're going to go after Trump and
• 11:46
  Speaker 4: anybody else around the president of the United States of America.
• 11:50
  Speaker 4: They're going to do anything they can to destroy Trump
• 11:55
  Speaker 4: and anyone around him, no matter what. So don't say
• 12:00
  Speaker 4: you weren't warned. Get ready, America, because the Democrats have
• 12:04
  Speaker 4: made it clear publicly now for the very first time
• 12:07
  Speaker 4: that if you elect them, they will impeach Trump and
• 12:10
  Speaker 4: go after everyone around him.
• 12:13
  Speaker 3: Next, story number two.
• 12:14
  Speaker 4: All right, so if you're running for office, you know
• 12:18
  Speaker 4: that people are going to ask you certain questions. Things like,
• 12:21
  Speaker 4: you know, maybe like what your favorite food is or
• 12:24
  Speaker 4: where's your favorite place you've ever been on a vacation.
• 12:27
  Speaker 1: Or what is your favorite sports team?
• 12:30
  Speaker 4: And you should probably be able to answer those pretty
• 12:33
  Speaker 4: quickly because they're pretty normal. Maybe like, you know, hey,
• 12:36
  Speaker 4: where'd you go to college would be another one that's
• 12:38
  Speaker 4: pretty easy to answer. Well, when it comes to the
• 12:42
  Speaker 4: freaks in the Democratic Party, they've got a different set
• 12:45
  Speaker 4: of questions. And James Tallarico, he's making headlines right now.
• 12:50
  Speaker 4: Back in the spotlight, I would argue for all the
• 12:53
  Speaker 4: wrong reasons. Now, you know that he's got a lot
• 12:56
  Speaker 4: of controversial things that he's said during his political career. Well,
• 13:00
  Speaker 4: somebody decided to walk up to Tallarico at a campaign
• 13:03
  Speaker 4: event and ask him a very simple question. I'm going
• 13:08
  Speaker 4: to read you the question before I play you the audio,
• 13:10
  Speaker 4: because I want you to really listen to how quickly
• 13:13
  Speaker 4: Tallarico answers the question that he's about to be asked.
• 13:19
  Speaker 4: The question is, who's your favorite drag.
• 13:24
  Speaker 1: Queen in Texas?
• 13:26
  Speaker 4: And again, this is James Tallarico being asked who his
• 13:30
  Speaker 4: favorite drag queen is in Texas. And boy, was he
• 13:34
  Speaker 4: happy to answer that question.
• 13:38
  Speaker 5: Mr.
• 13:38
  Speaker 1: Tallarico, so nice to meet you. Sorry, I broke my head.
• 13:40
  Speaker 1: I was there when you defended the drags. Who's your
• 13:43
  Speaker 1: favorite drag queen in Texas? Oh my gosh, probably Alyssa Edwards.
• 13:46
  Speaker 1: Alyssa Edwards, I love Mikey Mays.
• 13:47
  Speaker 5: Thank you so much.
• 13:50
  Speaker 4: That is your pastor, your Democratic mainstream candidate, James Tallarico, grinning, smiling,
• 13:56
  Speaker 4: and immediately saying, oh gosh, probably Alyssa Edwards. Yes, James
• 14:01
  Speaker 4: Tallarico actually has not just drag queens that he likes,
• 14:06
  Speaker 4: but he's got a favorite. And that is the reason
• 14:09
  Speaker 4: why this race is now looking even weirder than it
• 14:12
  Speaker 4: was before. Now, Alyssa Edwards is the stage name of
• 14:16
  Speaker 4: Justin Dwayne Lee Johnson. Apparently, that is a well-known drag
• 14:21
  Speaker 4: queen performer and dance instructor who has publicly described himself
• 14:26
  Speaker 4: as a, quote, drag performer that works with children, quote, unquote.
• 14:33
  Speaker 4: Johnson has operated a dance studio and worked extensively with
• 14:37
  Speaker 4: young dancers. He has also spoken publicly about sharing the
• 14:41
  Speaker 4: stage with his dance students. And his work with young
• 14:45
  Speaker 4: dancers was featured in the Netflix series Dancing Queen.
• 14:50
  Speaker 1: Now, by the way, this story becomes much bigger.
• 14:53
  Speaker 5: Why?
• 14:53
  Speaker 4: Because Tallarico already has a pretty extensive history, I'm not joking,
• 14:58
  Speaker 4: involving drag performances and children. In 2021, Tallarico appeared at
• 15:05
  Speaker 4: a Pride event in Taylor, Texas that also featured an
• 15:09
  Speaker 4: 11-year-old performer. That 11-year-old child was using the stage name
• 15:15
  Speaker 4: Queen Kiki. Promotional materials, by the way, for that event
• 15:19
  Speaker 4: described the child as its youngest drag performer. I'm going
• 15:22
  Speaker 4: to go back to that age again, 11. And then
• 15:26
  Speaker 4: if you look at that event, the reporting on that
• 15:28
  Speaker 4: event says it included a youth drag performance and then
• 15:32
  Speaker 4: a story time event with another drag queen. So when
• 15:36
  Speaker 4: Tallarico instantly names Alyssa Edwards as his favorite Texas drag queen, well,
• 15:42
  Speaker 4: you know that this is something that's pretty normal in
• 15:45
  Speaker 4: his life. Now, if you haven't been following the James
• 15:49
  Speaker 4: Tallarico career closely, you may not realize just how many
• 15:53
  Speaker 4: statements from his past are now being, well, a problem.
• 15:57
  Speaker 4: They're resurfacing, even though he's doubling down and leaning into them.
• 16:01
  Speaker 4: Take one of the most famous during a debate in
• 16:03
  Speaker 4: the Texas legislature in 2021 over transgender students participating in
• 16:08
  Speaker 4: school sports. Tallarico said God is non-binary. Now, that wasn't
• 16:13
  Speaker 4: something somebody attributed to him. He said it. Now, here's
• 16:17
  Speaker 4: something else that also, again, is amazing. The guy who
• 16:21
  Speaker 4: claims to be this brilliant pastor also said God is
• 16:25
  Speaker 4: both masculine and feminine and everything in between. And then
• 16:29
  Speaker 4: came that big line that God is non-binary. Now, Tallarico
• 16:34
  Speaker 4: has subsequently, quote, acknowledged that he was, well, being, quote,
• 16:38
  Speaker 4: intentionally provocative in that Fox News interview last week. He said, well,
• 16:43
  Speaker 4: I was just being provocative with that statement.
• 16:46
  Speaker 1: I get that. In other words, no, no, no.
• 16:48
  Speaker 4: Don't believe what I used to say, because now I'm
• 16:50
  Speaker 4: running for office and I need to be more mainstream.
• 16:53
  Speaker 4: He said his theological argument was simply that human categories
• 16:58
  Speaker 4: cannot define God.
• 17:00
  Speaker 1: He also said that there are six genders.
• 17:03
  Speaker 4: Now, you look at all of this and you add
• 17:05
  Speaker 4: it up with other things that he said, other controversial statements.
• 17:09
  Speaker 4: For example, like during the 2021 legislative hearing, Tallarico challenged
• 17:13
  Speaker 4: a Republican lawmaker on the number.
• 17:16
  Speaker 1: Of biological sexes.
• 17:18
  Speaker 4: Tallarico said, quote, modern science obviously recognizes that there are
• 17:22
  Speaker 4: many more than two biological sexes. And then he said,
• 17:26
  Speaker 4: in fact, there are six. Now he cited different chromosomal combinations.
• 17:31
  Speaker 4: And then he argued that biological sex exists on a spectrum.
• 17:35
  Speaker 4: But there's another obviously important development on that. Tallarico now
• 17:40
  Speaker 4: is going to walk back that statement saying, oh, well,
• 17:43
  Speaker 4: you know, hey, I was just, I guess, being, you know,
• 17:45
  Speaker 4: kind of inflammatory. He was asked just a couple of
• 17:49
  Speaker 4: days ago whether he still believes there are six biological sexes.
• 17:52
  Speaker 1: And he said, no. Yeah, that's it. One word answer.
• 17:55
  Speaker 5: No.
• 17:56
  Speaker 4: He then went on to explain in another interview that
• 17:58
  Speaker 4: he intended to say, what he intended to say, I guess,
• 18:01
  Speaker 4: is what he's trying to say now, is that there are,
• 18:03
  Speaker 4: you know, two sexes along with a small percentage of
• 18:05
  Speaker 4: people with genetic abnormalities. And then he acknowledged, I obviously
• 18:10
  Speaker 4: didn't say it correctly, there are not six sexes, there
• 18:13
  Speaker 4: are two. So what changed? Well, apparently just one thing.
• 18:18
  Speaker 4: Tallarico is running for office and the people around him
• 18:21
  Speaker 4: are saying, hey, man, you might want to not be
• 18:23
  Speaker 4: talking about all these radical statements of the past.
• 18:26
  Speaker 1: You should probably walk them back.
• 18:28
  Speaker 4: For example, in 2023, in an interview, Tallarico was asked
• 18:31
  Speaker 4: to name something he loved besides his family and friends.
• 18:35
  Speaker 1: And guess what his answer was? Trans children.
• 18:39
  Speaker 4: More specifically, Tallarico said, I love the trans children who
• 18:43
  Speaker 4: showed up yesterday at the state capitol to advocate for
• 18:48
  Speaker 4: their humanity. That is James Tallarico. And also just know,
• 18:53
  Speaker 4: this pastor guy has a favorite drag queen in Texas.
• 18:57
  Speaker 4: He's really excited and couldn't wait to answer the question.
• 19:01
  Speaker 5: Mr.
• 19:01
  Speaker 1: Tallarico, so nice to meet you. Sorry, I broke my hand.
• 19:03
  Speaker 1: I was there when you defended the drags. Who's your
• 19:06
  Speaker 1: favorite drag queen in Texas? Oh my gosh, probably Alyssa Edwards.
• 19:09
  Speaker 1: Alyssa Edwards? I love my feet, man.
• 19:11
  Speaker 5: Thank you so much.
• 19:12
  Speaker 4: I mean, man, you talk about being a big fan
• 19:14
  Speaker 4: of the drag queens. There's the Democratic candidate, James Tallarico.
• 19:19
