- 1:00We won and I have to say, you know, it seems like gun owners, you guys got out there and did it.
- 1:05Saw an article talking about the different you know, where the big groups spent their monies Giffords and Anytown and NRA.
- 1:14And it's definitely seems like the NRA where it spent its monies on was a lot more successful.
- 1:21Anytown was a little mixed.
- 1:22Giffords was definitely Did not perform well.
- 1:26They only made they made expenditures in eight race and they lost six of them.
- 1:32So you know, and I love this.
- 1:34There, here's a quote from Giffords.
- 1:37It has been a difficult few days, and we want to encourage you to take some time to care for yourself.
- 1:41The Giffords Pack wrote in a fundraising email to supporters.
- 1:45We understand the emotions you may be feeling.
- 1:47Sadness, anger, grief.
- 1:49confusion, frustration, disappointment.
- 1:51These feelings are all incredibly valid and all of us here at Giffords, including Gabby, are experiencing those feelings right along with you.
- 1:58But we're also gearing up to take on the challenges and the new administration will bring.
- 2:03So yeah, the The left is clutching their pearls.
- 2:06They are so upset.
- 2:07I don't know if you've seen some of the videos and things of people screaming and just wailing and how, Oh, and Jimmy Kimmel is my favorite.
- 2:15The world is coming to an end and but then, you know, we get this you know, information.
- 2:22Let me see.
- 2:22I'll let me pull it up here real quick.
- 2:24Let's see if I can put my hand on it.
- 2:27Where This was a post that came, it said three days after Charlie Kirk posted this, but It said three days since Donald Trump's historic landslide, and already The E.
- 2:36E.
- 2:36U.
- 2:37says it wants to buy American natural gas to avoid Trump's tariffs But it says Putin says he will sell Russian oil in U.
- 2:44S.
- 2:44dollars, Hamas is calling for peace, Zelensky held a private phone call with President Trump and Elon Musk, and Mexico broke up a migrant caravan heading for America.
- 2:55All that happened just right after Trump became president because people realize there's a new sheriff in town There's definitely a new sheriff in town and his name is Donald J.
- 3:05Trump.
- 3:05So but you know, our work is not done We have a lot to get done It's just starting actually and that's part of it is going to be putting together the administration and You know, I'm gonna be coming out with you know, some some definite initiatives one There is a Twitter hashtag out there, no Pompeo, because there has been, and I don't know how, if it's true or not, but it is definitely trending anyway, that Mike Pompeo might have a spot back in the administration.
- 3:36He is a narrow trumper.
- 3:38He did not, he didn't, is not one to be trusted and we need to make sure he does not get in.
- 3:44And yesterday night, last night that no Pompeo hashtag was number one trending on Twitter.
- 3:50So we cannot allow people like my Pompeo back into the administration.
- 3:55The other one is John Cornyn.
- 3:56He is pushing to be the Senate Majority leader.
- 3:59And that is a big no-no, I am here in Texas.
- 4:02He is my.
- 4:03One of my two Texas Senators, and I am going to be spending all my efforts to make sure that he is no longer a Texas Senator when his term is up.
- 4:10I don't know how successful it is that will be, but we definitely cannot allow him to be Senate Majority Leader.
- 4:16But we still have things to get done.
- 4:20We do need to reform the ATF, and I hope President Trump does that.
- 4:24I feel confident, and I feel confident that we might actually get the Hearing Protection Act passed.
- 4:28We may actually get an elimination of the NFA.
- 4:31I don't know about that.
- 4:32Definitely clip the wings of the ATF.
- 4:35And, actually You know start protecting gun owners and protecting gun owners rights.
- 4:40Those are what we want to shoot for.
- 4:42But, and we've got the people to do it.
- 4:44I, I have faith in, in this administration and I believe we're going to be successful.
- 4:49So, you know, here's to everybody that got out vote, got people out to vote.
- 4:53We were successful and it shows, but we're not done, and that's what I mean.
- 4:58It shows in the past Republicans really thought that we could win on our ideas.
- 5:02We had better ideas.
- 5:02We always have had better ideas.
- 5:04Common sense is better than lunacy.
- 5:07Always.
- 5:08But, That doesn't always win.
- 5:11The Democrats were much better workers.
- 5:13They got out, rolled up their sleeves, and they went and scraped and clawed every vote they could.
- 5:18And in this election, the Republicans did it.
- 5:21And I hope we learned something.
- 5:23And I hope we continue to do that.
- 5:25Do that nasty, dirty work in the, in the trenches of getting, getting votes because that's what it takes to win.
- 5:32And when we did, so this is just a little celebratory podcast.
- 5:38We'll be getting into the meat of more things going on in the world the next time, but enjoy, have a good weekend and I'll talk to you later.
