  Speaker 1: We've got a question for our American mamas. Dear mamas,
• 0:01
  Speaker 1: early voting has begun, so what do you think is
• 0:03
  Speaker 1: going to happen in these midterms?
• 0:06
  Speaker 2: Let's ask our American mamas.
• 0:09
  Speaker 3: Mama, mama, mama.
• 0:13
  Speaker 2: Mama told me not to come. She said that ain't
• 0:17
  Speaker 2: the way to have fun, no.
• 0:20
  Speaker 1: And joining us now are American Mamas Terry Nedeville and
• 0:23
  Speaker 1: Kimberly Burleson. Some places have already been doing early voting.
• 0:26
  Speaker 1: Some places are starting this week. There's a lot riding
• 0:31
  Speaker 1: on these midterms. How are you guys feeling heading into it?
• 0:33
  Speaker 3: I know in Texas, we start today. And we're going
• 0:37
  Speaker 3: to get there because we're going to vote because we
• 0:38
  Speaker 3: feel like everything is at stake right now with a
• 0:42
  Speaker 3: looney tune that's out there. I'm shocked at the number
• 0:44
  Speaker 3: of people that even have signs for, what do you
• 0:46
  Speaker 3: call it?
• 0:46
  Speaker 2: Tallarico?
• 0:47
  Speaker 3: Yeah, Tallarico. So we've got to show up in droves.
• 0:50
  Speaker 3: But I saw this post by Gentry Jeevers, or Gevers,
• 0:55
  Speaker 3: I don't know his name. But I thought he laid
• 0:57
  Speaker 3: everything out kind of like clearly about what's at stake
• 0:59
  Speaker 3: right now. And he said, you know, Trump did his work.
• 1:03
  Speaker 3: He has done his work. He came in the election.
• 1:06
  Speaker 3: He signed the orders. He sent these orders, Congress, with
• 1:11
  Speaker 3: the bills. And then what happened? Item after item, the
• 1:15
  Speaker 3: bills he backed up. passed in the House, went to
• 1:17
  Speaker 3: the Senate, and then they died there.
• 1:19
  Speaker 1: Yep.
• 1:19
  Speaker 3: And it became a pattern.
• 1:21
  Speaker 1: In many parts because of John Cornyn.
• 1:23
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 1:23
  Speaker 3: Absolutely.
• 1:24
  Speaker 1: Who was the senator from Texas who lost to Ken
• 1:26
  Speaker 1: Paxton in the primary. But that conflict between Ken Paxton
• 1:30
  Speaker 1: and John Cornyn is part of why Paxton is not
• 1:36
  Speaker 1: dominating in the polls right now because there's so much
• 1:39
  Speaker 1: animosity within the Republican Party within Texas itself.
• 1:41
  Speaker 3: Exactly. Well, for my friends that are kind of on
• 1:44
  Speaker 3: the inside with Paxton, it's, there's not a lot of
• 1:48
  Speaker 3: people that like him.
• 1:49
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 1:49
  Speaker 3: And it's like right now, it's like he's the lesser
• 1:52
  Speaker 3: of the two evils.
• 1:53
  Speaker 1: Right.
• 1:53
  Speaker 3: So that's what people are kind of toying with. And
• 1:56
  Speaker 3: which is frustrating because you're like, why don't we have
• 1:58
  Speaker 3: a candidate that.
• 1:58
  Speaker 2: We just, yes.
• 2:00
  Speaker 1: Because they didn't vote for Wesley Hunt.
• 2:02
  Speaker 2: Exactly.
• 2:02
  Speaker 3: Isn't that the truth? Isn't that the truth? So it's
• 2:05
  Speaker 3: so very frustrating right now, but there's too many things
• 2:08
  Speaker 3: at stake. Yeah. you know, and I feel like we've
• 2:10
  Speaker 3: got two more years. If we can get the right
• 2:12
  Speaker 3: people in right now and get rid of the ones
• 2:15
  Speaker 3: that are stopping this, because everything that's happening, the integrity,
• 2:19
  Speaker 3: the election integrity, the doge cuts, social security, women in sports,
• 2:25
  Speaker 3: all of these things are overwhelmingly supported by the population.
• 2:30
  Speaker 3: And I feel like these people that are In office,
• 2:33
  Speaker 3: it's all about themselves.
• 2:35
  Speaker 2: Right.
• 2:35
  Speaker 3: When they work for us.
• 2:36
  Speaker 2: That's right.
• 2:36
  Speaker 3: It's like, do the job. I wish we could fire
• 2:38
  Speaker 3: them in the middle of things.
• 2:39
  Speaker 2: I know it.
• 2:40
  Speaker 3: And say, you're messing up.
• 2:41
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 2:42
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 2:42
  Speaker 1: And that's one of the things about the Senate is
• 2:43
  Speaker 1: that the Senate is supposed to be a place of stability.
• 2:47
  Speaker 1: The House is supposed to be the place where you
• 2:49
  Speaker 1: get to change them out. You get to fire them
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: in the middle of it more often in the House
• 2:52
  Speaker 1: than you do in the Senate. But if you have
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: somebody like Tallarico in the Senate... I don't see any
• 2:59
  Speaker 1: stability there.
• 3:01
  Speaker 2: I really cannot believe that. I never would have dreamed that,
• 3:03
  Speaker 2: especially in Texas, that it would have come to Tallarico
• 3:06
  Speaker 2: being this close. In fact, in some polls, ahead of Paxton.
• 3:09
  Speaker 2: A lot of polls. And you know how the left
• 3:12
  Speaker 2: always says, go to the polls and just hold your
• 3:13
  Speaker 2: nose and pull the lever, even if you don't like
• 3:16
  Speaker 2: them or you think that they're too much of a
• 3:20
  Speaker 2: Muslim faith or whatever. They're like, hold your nose and
• 3:22
  Speaker 2: just do it. We need you. I am begging you.
• 3:25
  Speaker 2: I'm begging our big brother, Texas, to Louisiana, go vote
• 3:30
  Speaker 2: for Paxton. Cornyn was a rhino, and I think people
• 3:34
  Speaker 2: found that. They discovered that. That's why he lost to Paxton.
• 3:37
  Speaker 2: Because it's kind of like our Louisiana's Bill Cassidy years ago.
• 3:42
  Speaker 2: We voted him in. He knew that he represented all
• 3:44
  Speaker 2: of us. Then he gets in office, and I don't
• 3:46
  Speaker 2: know if it's the lobbyists. I don't know what happened.
• 3:49
  Speaker 2: Then he started voting against what we wanted. And they'll say,
• 3:53
  Speaker 2: like Cornyn, others like those rhinos, they'll say, I voted
• 3:56
  Speaker 2: 95% with Trump. Yeah, but when the votes that really mattered,
• 4:01
  Speaker 2: like the SAVE Act came along, you did not vote
• 4:04
  Speaker 2: in our best interest. Those are the ones we freaking
• 4:08
  Speaker 2: care about.
• 4:08
  Speaker 1: Yeah, the name of the post office, it doesn't matter
• 4:10
  Speaker 1: if you're a voter.
• 4:10
  Speaker 2: Yeah, we don't care about that.
• 4:11
  Speaker 1: Yeah, that's all right. But the SAVE Act, we kind
• 4:14
  Speaker 1: of need that one.
• 4:14
  Speaker 3: Well, they're treating the voter's agenda as an option. It's
• 4:19
  Speaker 3: just optional. And it's like, no, that's not how it works.
• 4:22
  Speaker 3: It's what we want. That's how you vote, how the
• 4:25
  Speaker 3: majority wants, and they're not. It's all about themselves while
• 4:27
  Speaker 3: they're in there. But what's very clear is this isn't
• 4:30
  Speaker 3: a White House problem. We have a problem in the Senate.
• 4:32
  Speaker 2: That's right.
• 4:34
  Speaker 3: A big problem.
• 4:35
  Speaker 1: That's right.
• 4:35
  Speaker 2: They always blame. They always say, wait, why hadn't your
• 4:38
  Speaker 2: president gotten stuff done? I mean, he's got the House
• 4:40
  Speaker 2: and the Senate. Republicans have the majority. Yeah, but guess what?
• 4:45
  Speaker 2: The one thing that I can say about the Democrats
• 4:47
  Speaker 2: is They stick together. Yes. Whether it's like the most
• 4:50
  Speaker 2: ridiculous thing or not, they stick together. When it comes
• 4:53
  Speaker 2: to the Republicans, they have been the bull on the
• 4:57
  Speaker 2: butt of our Republican humanity.
• 5:00
  Speaker 1: We splinter over easy things. Yes, yes.
• 5:02
  Speaker 2: They are bald. They know what they're doing. They get
• 5:05
  Speaker 2: in there knowing that they're going to side with the left.
• 5:08
  Speaker 2: We've got plenty of them that we can choose from.
• 5:10
  Speaker 2: I will give that to the Democrats. They don't sway.
• 5:13
  Speaker 2: They vote according to what their people tell them to
• 5:16
  Speaker 2: do on the left. The right, not so much. So, yeah,
• 5:21
  Speaker 2: if we really did have the majority in the way
• 5:23
  Speaker 2: that it matters, President Trump would get everything done that
• 5:26
  Speaker 2: he needed to get done for us. But now, thank
• 5:29
  Speaker 2: God for transparency. Thank God we now know so we
• 5:32
  Speaker 2: can boot the Bill Cassidys out and get real Republicans in.
• 5:36
  Speaker 1: And look, I think a large part of that's Elon
• 5:38
  Speaker 1: Musk buying Twitter. There's a whole bunch of stuff that
• 5:40
  Speaker 1: we got to see that we haven't been able to
• 5:42
  Speaker 1: see before.
• 5:42
  Speaker 2: I can't say that enough.
• 5:43
