  We got a question for American mamas. Dear mama's, what do you think
• 0:02
  about the new speaker of the House. Well, let's ask our American mama's.
• 0:07
  Mama, Mama, and joining is now our American mama's Terry Nutteville and
• 0:22
  Kimberly Burlison. Okay, Terry, you've met Mike right, yes, yes,
• 0:28
  super kind Kimberly, I don't think you've met Mike. I haven't met
• 0:31
  him, but he's really close to our cousins, our friends. His daughter's
• 0:38
  a sorority sister to my niece. Some are Terry's daughter, so a lot
• 0:42
  of connections. It's funny because his daughter and my son actually got their driver's
• 0:47
  license on the same day they were at the DMV. I was sitting around
• 0:50
  V and I saw Mike and his daughter walk in. I'm like, oh,
• 0:52
  hey, so is that Abby, Because let me tell you something.
• 0:55
  That girl has a voice of an angel. If you've ever heard her sing,
• 1:00
  Kimberly, really, it truly is one of those that you will I
• 1:03
  would not be surprised if we heard on the radio. I actually said to
• 1:07
  Summer, I said she sang in a wedding that I heard, and I
• 1:11
  said okay, uh I when I die, I want her singing, beautiful
• 1:15
  voice, beautiful anyway. Yeah, he's their family, you know, Kelly,
• 1:21
  his his wife, his everything. You know, they have four kids.
• 1:25
  They I think they've adopted a next a fifth one years ago. Yeah,
• 1:32
  okay, okay, I didn't. I didn't know that part of the
• 1:34
  story. I didn't. All of his kids are so all of his kids.
• 1:37
  I didn't know anybody was adopted. You know, man has his life
• 1:42
  just changed? Yes, you know, when I saw that he was voted
• 1:48
  in a speaker, I thought, this is God ordained. I just had
• 1:53
  a feeling this is so, it is so absolutely God driven. And then
• 2:00
  ever since then, every interview that I've heard, every time somebody speaks about
• 2:05
  him in the same breath, they talk about his faith in God, his
• 2:08
  trust in God. If there's one thing that we need in this world right
• 2:13
  now, it is God right and to have a man of God leading.
• 2:19
  I know. You know how when you watched I always think about this,
• 2:23
  like when I watch Dateline or when I watched you know those kind of shows.
• 2:25
  There's always something that happens. There's always a twist, and whenever it
• 2:30
  happens where you know, the bad guy gets caught or the girl gets saved
• 2:34
  or something like that. Whenever the twist happens, I always say, there
• 2:37
  you are God, because there's God in the twist, and we need the
• 2:40
  twist. And I believe that Mike Johnson is the twist. That's rightly interesting
• 2:46
  because the way this came about. Think about how he became speaker because there
• 2:50
  was Jim Jordan, right, I thought he was going to get it,
• 2:53
  Steve Sleez first, right, and then he went down and stee Scleeze I
• 2:57
  think would have been fine speaker. Jim Jordan, I think would have been
• 2:59
  a good speaker. And then when Tom Emmert was nominated, I went,
• 3:01
  he's not going to be speaker. I just like he's not going to be
• 3:06
  And you talk about the twist for the number of people, because because Mike
• 3:08
  Johnson was not first in line, he was not second in line, he
• 3:12
  was not fifth in line, he was maybe seventh in line. But for
• 3:15
  him to become the one up at the time, think of all the things
• 3:17
  that had to be moved out of the way about think about it. It's
• 3:22
  crazy. That's why I feel like this is God driven, right, because
• 3:28
  you just feel I don't know, there's a comfort level, and you know,
• 3:30
  I don't know if y'all saw when he was visiting with Sean Hannity on
• 3:35
  his show, Sean Hannity talked about what the Democrats were saying about him,
• 3:38
  and it was of course throwing all of these insults and hurling all of this,
• 3:43
  yes, all the stuff that that of course are going to want their
• 3:46
  base to feel focus on. And his response was so interesting because he basically
• 3:53
  said, ultimately, give me a chance. He is somebody who feels like
• 3:58
  that. He said, if you want to know about me and my belief
• 4:01
  system, go to your shelf at home, grab your Bible and read it.
• 4:05
  That's me. Right. When was the last time we've had a political
• 4:10
  leader in the we're in the country say, if you want to know what
• 4:12
  I believe, go grab your Bible and read it. Yeah. And then
• 4:15
  and then after that, very kindly, he said, I just they just
• 4:18
  I hope they give me a chance to see what I can do. Because
• 4:20
  he knows that he can be. He's a unifier. He is an absolute
• 4:25
  unifier. Another thing that he and his wife Kelly do that is unifying.
• 4:30
  They've done these retreats for couples. They're a very solid couple, and so
• 4:34
  they go to these churches and they have these retreats where they bring couples,
• 4:39
  you know, who have strong marriages, weak marriages in between, and they
• 4:44
  help them to grow in the Bible's way of growing as a couple. And
• 4:48
  so he's a unifier. Can you share his text message? Yeah, so
• 4:55
  I I'll go ahead and share it. So I texted Mike when he was
• 5:00
  he first announced that he was running, and I told him, Hey,
• 5:02
  look, you know we're behind you, we support you and all this.
• 5:05
  I've been I've been friends with Mike since before he got into politics, when
• 5:09
  beck he was doing a radio show. Yeah, he was on another radio
• 5:12
  show I was on, and that's when we first met, back when he
• 5:14
  was an attorney for Lines Defending Freedom and all this. So I texted him
• 5:17
  over the weekend and I said, look, we're behind you, and I
• 5:21
  said I'm honored to call you friend, and I will continue to pray that
• 5:25
  God's will be done in your life. And what he texted back was,
• 5:28
  thank you, good brother. We are completely submitted to God's will that I'm
• 5:33
  trying to tell him, Hey, we're supporting you in your race for Speaker
• 5:36
  of the House, and he went, God's will be done. That's right.
• 5:41
  And I think that's when you go, huh, there's the twist.
• 5:45
  If we all just would live our life like that, just acknowledging and letting
• 5:49
  God's will be done. If you like to ask gar America Mom was a
