Speaker 1 (00:00):
The Giganic government Sucksseuit of Happiness Radio is deluxe. Liberty
and Freedom will make you smile. Of a suit of happiness.
Us on your radio, Toyle Justice Cheeseburgers a Liberty Rise
at FO.
Speaker 2 (00:19):
We have an American Pope. The new Pope is from Chicago,
which is probably why everybody in Green Bay just became
a Methodist. It also means the Vatican will start serving
deep dish Communion wafers for the first time ever. The
Pope is an American. There are already language barrier issues.
Nobody in the Vatican gets his Seinfeld references. You know,
(00:41):
his first order of business is probably going to be
to get a restraining order against jd.
Speaker 3 (00:46):
Vance.
Speaker 2 (00:46):
Be careful. Jd Vance is wiry and Donald Trump has
congratulated the new Pope by putting a fifty percent teriff
on him. Don't blame the guy. Finally a leader at
the Vatican who speaks English, just like Jesus did. We
welcome friends to an all new edition of Kenny Websterey's
Pursuit of Happiness. If everything goes as planned this afternoon,
(01:07):
and it almost never does, we will be joined by
Michael Quinnsullivan of Texas scorecard dot com and Brandon Darby
at brightbart dot com. So we get to all of
that shortly, but before we begin our after well, actually,
let's first topic here. I think probably the most important
thing to point out is that as we as a
society take a good long look at what's going on
(01:30):
around us, maybe we shouldn't reward people for bad behavior.
The culture war is a term we often use to
describe the ideological and theological feud between people on the
left and people on the right, more specifically in places
like social media, academia, TV, movies, music, You know, the
(01:53):
culture war? Right, do we young people? Do we encourage
them to be pro life? Do we encourage them to
be free marketing? The catch? Do we encourage them being
anti war advocates? Kirsten Fleming at The New York Post
recently pointed out how the culture wars have added a
new front crowdfunding. People get very angry, and when they
(02:15):
get angry, they'll put their hard earned money behind poorly
behaved people and even alleged murderers. Why would they do this, Well,
they do it because these shameless offenders somehow represent their cause,
or so they think. There's very twisted tribal mentality that
we see. There's so many examples right now, but I
think there's really three good ones on full display right
(02:37):
now as we walk into these topics. I just want
you to consider that whether these people suckers I would
call them, believe they're fighting against cancel culture or racial justice,
or rallying against the decadence of a CEO and some
billionaire class, they're making a pretty pathetic financial pledge. It's
(02:57):
as if we're living in a late night commercial for
ambulance chasers. Did you do something odious or anti social
that is terrible real world consequences, You may be entitled
to compensation from your fellow believers. And hey, maybe civilized
people who don't believe in randomly murdering powerful executives on
(03:20):
the street because we're angry about how the laws were
written had a right to be disgusted by the glorification
of Luigi Mangione, the guy allegedly gunned down the United
Healthcare CEO Brian Thompson back in December, and now there
is a musical in San Francisco named after him. I've
not seen it yet, so I'll refrain from reviewing it,
(03:43):
but that does seem a little tacky, although I'll be honest,
if it's funny, I mean, look, if it's funny, it's funny.
I don't know. I don't want to get off topic here.
Supposedly there's a musical in San Francisco right now about
Luigi Mangione in a Brooklyn federal prison with Jiz laying masks.
What's her name? Jiselaine Maxwell, the Epstein Madam Puff, Daddy's
(04:05):
in there. R Kelly's in there, the ceo of FTX
bank Free, Sam bankfant freed, the crypto bro. I don't
know if they're glorifying those people or if it's just
dark humor. I have no idea, but it seems a
little odd, doesn't it. Anyway? This isn't about Broadway musicals
or off Broadway musicals. It's about people giving money to
(04:26):
people like Luigi Mangione. Because what's even more jarring is
the financial support he received. His online fundraising has accumulated
more than a million dollars. But these last two months,
this trend has reached troubling new heights. There's a blonde woman,
she's cute, it's a pretty lady, and she's walking around
on a playground while somebody films her with a cell phone.
(04:50):
Her name is Shiloh. She refers to a young black
autistic child as the N word. Supposedly, I don't know.
I wasn't there when it ha but that's the way
that she has now raised seven hundred and fifty three
thousand dollars on the Internet from people who like her
and don't like black people, I'm presuming. And then there's Carmelo, right,
(05:12):
remember him, Carmelo Anthony. He stabbed a white kid at
a track meet up in the Dallas Fort Worth area.
He's raised over half a million dollars all on social media.
Carmelo Anthony supposedly stabbed seventeen year old Austin Metcalf in
the heart at attract Meat. I think, if I'm not mistaken,
he admitted to doing it. He just said it was
in self defense. Well, the victim died at the scene
(05:34):
and Carmelo was arrested. He admitted he stabbed him, and
yet many rushed to his defense. Sides were drawn racial lines.
Supporters have dumped five hundred and twenty six thousand dollars
into his family's fundraiser. By the way, that woman Shiloh
Hendrix that used the N word. She's from Minnesota, dropping
(05:55):
end bombs on little kids. She claims that she needs
the money because she's in danger. Well it worked. Seven
hundred and fifty thousand dollars. She says she was dosed
by anti white activists on the internet. Is it any
wonder that a dim witted Temple student would use this
same method after it was revealed that he and his
friends visited a Barstool Sports owned joint and added a
(06:19):
F the Jews sign to their bottle service. The student
was a guy named Mohammed Khan. He uploaded the video
of the sign to his own account. F the Jews
barstool boss de Portnoy, you've heard of him, who happens
to be Jewish, kind of flipped out over the situation. Then,
with all eyes on Dave Portnoy, he did something different.
(06:41):
He offered grace. He explicitly said he didn't want to
ruin the kid's life. He threw them a timeline, offered
them a free trip to pull in to visit Auschwitz. Wow.
According to Dave Portnoy, the the guy Mohammed Khan was
crying on the phone and agreed to Go. But suddenly
Khan changed his tune defiantly, so he started to give
send to Go aunt crowdsource funding. He asked people to
(07:04):
help defend him against Dave Portnoy's attacks. Dave Portnoy's sending
you to Poland is getting a free trip to Poland
an attack? Sign me up, I'll go. He listed how
he had been suspended by his school, he got docked,
he was fired from his job. Maybe don't write f
the Jews on your receipt next time you drink in
the bar owned by a Jewish guy. This guy had
(07:26):
an unmitigated goal to claim you as a citizen journalist
merely capturing what was going on. But in his fundraiser,
he said, quote, they have no right to destroy my
life over free speech and what is ultimately an edgy joke,
puzzlingly adding that Portnoy owns the owes him restitution. He
thinks Dave Portnoy owes him money now, and so he
(07:49):
started to give send go account and I think it
worked from what I'm seeing online. He raised fifteen thousand
dollars By proclaiming himself a victim, He's made it impossible
for him to be employable. No company would put up
with someone who lacks the ability and inclination to be
(08:10):
accountable or tell the truth, never mind expressing some terrible
anti Semitic sentiment. When I look at Dave Portnoy, I
don't immediately think like, oh, this jew controls of the media.
There's a lot of people out there. That guy built
his media company from the ground up. Whether it was
he's Jewish or not, He's still put in the work.
It's his business now to plete his case. Temple University's
(08:33):
finest in an interview with the proud Jew hater Stu Peters.
I never heard of him before this week, and now
Kahn has brought Peters into the media spotlight starting an
online fundraiser. Cancel culture was bad when it targeted people
like artists or thinkers or comedians and yes, everyday people
(08:54):
over opinions or jokes that were a little off putting
Kevin Hart telling a gay joke in an old tweet.
Now that the window has been blasted open, one can
make edgy jokes again. You can cancel culture. The pendulum
swung back in the other direction. It certainly seems that way,
But I would say screaming f the Jews, or calling
(09:15):
a toddler an N word. That's not really a joke,
it's just hate. Never mind the whole murder thing with
Carmelo Anthony. Look, I'm still anti cancel culture, and I'm
against making these clowns into heroes. To lionize these people
as dangerous. It only incentivizes and encourages more anti social behavior.
(09:36):
I guess you could say it's a slippery slope. Stop it, government,
get out of my life. You're listening to the Pursuit
of Happiness radio. Remember, everybody, Sunday is Mother's Day. Your
mom told you all she wants from you this year
is love, and I'm here to remind you that is
(09:57):
a lie. She wants a gift, Get her a gift,
get her something. Come on, she's her mom for crying
out out. Imagine what she's put up with if you're
just hurting on your radio. Kind of a long opening
monologue this afternoon, as they talked about the cultural pendulum
swinging back and forth over cancel culture, I always felt
like we were you know, we often get accused of
(10:17):
being extremist on this radio show, and then and then
you find out what an extremist really is.
Speaker 3 (10:22):
Right.
Speaker 2 (10:22):
My next guest, Michael Quinn Sullivan, has been accused of
being on the far right before. Well, what is he
believe in? Liberty and wholesome values? That can't be the
far right? Come on, that's the center right at best.
I think it's a pretty practical position to be in.
You look at what's going on around the country right now.
A few years ago, several years ago, people were getting
canceled for telling jokes, jokes they'd told years earlier. You'll
(10:46):
remember a cooking celebrity, Paula Dene got canceled or fired
from Target for selling a cooking wear line because forty
years later, she supposedly used the N word once and
it wasn't even recorded. I don't even know if it's true, right,
Aziz and Sorry? A popular comedian was you know, I
remember him, Parks and Rex. He was on the TV
(11:08):
show with Amy Poehler. He got canceled in Hollywood because
he went on a date with a female blogger. They
had consensual relations with one another, and then months later
she realized he didn't want to date her again, and
she wrote a blog post that basically made him look
like a rapist. Was it true? It wasn't. The post
didn't even say that he raped her. It just said
that he was a jerk and a misogynist. And he
(11:30):
never worked again because it was right at the height
of the hashtag me too scandal. Okay, to be accurate,
he worked again, but he wasn't the big star that
he was. Now it's gone in the other direction. You
see people are out screaming the N word in public
and they're getting seven hundred thousand dollars in donations online
or stabbing a kid to dath that track meet up
(11:51):
in Frisco. Same thing, right. Luigi Mangiones made over a
million dollars for whether or not he murdered a United
Healthcare ceo. It seems like he did. Michael Quinn Sullivan,
you and I worked pretty hard for a living to
make the money and we make are we working too hard?
I guess all you got to do is stab someone
and screen the N word and you can make a
million bucks in a week.
Speaker 1 (12:11):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (12:12):
I mean, let's be clear.
Speaker 4 (12:14):
You shouldn't stab someone and you shouldn't yell the end word.
Speaker 2 (12:18):
Thank you?
Speaker 4 (12:18):
Yeah, I agree, I agree, Yeah, yeah, there are there there.
You know, you can make a lot of money doing
a lot of very obnoxious, immoral things, right, and that's
you know, kind of get what you pay for and
get returned there. But yeah, I mean, you're you're so
wort the the we've reached this strange place in our
culture where everything gets we allow everything to be pushed
(12:40):
to extremes, and then we're surprised when the pendulum keeps swinging.
Speaker 3 (12:45):
The cultural mass. Cultural mass is hard to push.
Speaker 4 (12:49):
But once you push it, watch out because you've pushed
it and it's moving.
Speaker 3 (12:53):
You know, Newton talked about this.
Speaker 4 (12:55):
You know, an object in motion stays in motion. All
those you know, equal opposite reaction, All the kind of
things come into play in the in the cultural world
as surely as they happen in the physical world. And
which why don't we we should always make sure that
we're acking, you.
Speaker 2 (13:12):
Know, we should take the take on test.
Speaker 4 (13:15):
Do we do we really want to do this? Do
we really want to say? When talking about jokes mobile,
I say about James Gunn, you know, the the very
talented director of the Guardians of the Galaxy series who
it was found out that you know, fifteen ten years
earlier he had posted some you know, maybe some slightly
(13:36):
inappropriate I think sex related jokes on Twitter and uh.
And then he'd kind of moved on and changes change crowthings,
and he was kicked off of directing Gardens of the
Galaxy for a while because of it's just one of
those you know, like what, I what do I want
my son telling those jokes on social media? No, don't
(13:56):
want him some of those jokes with the friends. No
do I think that he should be kicked out of
his jobs for life?
Speaker 3 (14:02):
No?
Speaker 4 (14:03):
Right, I mean, it's that kind of But yet we
we allowed that. In fact, many of us on the
right that happened to James Gun we kind of cheered,
he's kind of a lefty. Oh hey, canceled cultures now
taking out their own, we said. But yet that's that
that's the wrong way for us to be looking at
these bad cultural trends, because because the same thing that
(14:24):
you know caused James Gun to be pushed out, the
same cultural momentum u that you know caused the actor
from Parks and Wreck uh to kind of get you know,
knocked to the wayside, That same cultural momentum you know
now allows you know, the stabby uh, the stabby teenager
up in up in the Metroplex, uh to get you know,
(14:47):
seven hundred and fifty thousand dollars, because it's you know,
it's also culturally crazy. We need to be asking better
questions of what what are we tolerating, what are we
celebrating in our culture, because those what we tolerate, what
we shame, have a way of flipping that and forth.
Speaker 2 (15:00):
I feel like, you know, as you know, I wasn't
born yesterday, So I remember life in the late nineties
and the late nineties, it felt like people were getting
a little sensitive. There was Limp Biscuit in South Park,
and you know, things like that on TV and the
world of music. And then suddenly everyone started getting hyper
sensitive for just a brief, fleeting moment. And then nine
to eleven happened, and suddenly it changed us. Right, we
(15:23):
forgot about all of our stupid problems and we focused
on that. Twenty years later, the pandemic happened, and I
had hoped the same thing would take place, that the
pandemic would cause us all to forget about all the
stupid little issues that were actually pretty inconsequential if not
for the fact that we're making them consequential. And yet
it did. The exact opposite. People being alone at home
all the time with nothing to do but look at
(15:44):
their iPhones back in twenty twenty and twenty twenty one
caused people to be very, very sensitive. And I'm not
really sure how exactly to define it, but is there
some kind of a you know, a landmark moment that
could take place here in the next year or two.
What war in South Asia, warren Eastern Europe, and war
all over the Mideast that would suddenly make people stop
(16:05):
and remember, you know, maybe we shouldn't reward people for
saying the N word or stabbing someone, but similarly, maybe
we shouldn't cancel someone for fifteen year old jokes. I mean,
there's got to be a middle ground. Does it take
a world changing moment to bring us back to that?
Speaker 4 (16:21):
It seems like it kind of does. But I'm and
this is where I'm going to sound like the old man,
you know, shaking his fist at the cloud for a moment.
You know, I do worry that some of these things
are become sort of permanent because in the past, when
you when Kenney Webster late nineteen nineties version of Kenney
(16:41):
Webster told a dumb, bad something your mother would be
offended hearing you say on a stage in a stand
up comedy club. You know, half the audience laughed because
it was an appropriate half of it. Our quarter of
them laughed because they were already drunk. And the other
(17:01):
quarter rolled the rise of what an idiot he ought
to go do talk radio and so stand up comedy right,
you know, you know, you know, and it was done right,
and it was done you know, you know some of
those people, you know, some of the twenty people in
the room. Uh, just you know that's all. That's all
who heard it right? Well today, you now, because my
(17:23):
phone that I keep in my pocket, that goes with
me every everywhere I go, everything coming through it is
very personal, right, So I now take personally, you know,
when someone sent you know, when someone sends me the
video clip of you from nineteen ninety eight telling a
stupid joke at open mic night, suddenly, I now take
(17:43):
that personally because it's on my personal lif I should
take it personally. And I think this is where we
have allowed so many things that are not personal. You know,
whatever stupid joke James Gunn wrote, he wasn't writing it
to me. He didn't send it to me when writing
it for you know, but yet I took it personally.
And this is again, this is a thing that each
(18:05):
of us individually have to work through, this idea of
you know, I don't have to take everything personally. I
don't have to take the events of the day personally.
What Donald Trump says today the Rose Garden does not
impact me personally unless I choose to make it impact
me personally. And you rinstant repeat with all of this stuff.
You know, it is very sad that two high school
(18:28):
boys had had such conflict that one decided to kill
the other. Right, that's very bad. But you know what,
I don't have to be personally engaged in that fight.
I don't be personally engaged in them. I hope and
pray that there's reconciliation, I hope and pray for justice,
all those kind of things, right, but I don't be
personally invested.
Speaker 3 (18:45):
Yeah, but yet we have a.
Speaker 4 (18:47):
Culture that says, you know, damn it, Kinney, you must
care about every tweet and everything.
Speaker 3 (18:53):
That's bad for your brain. Man, that's really bad for
our brain.
Speaker 2 (18:56):
Oh absolutely. I mean, if anything, I think it's a
concept for a soul. By the way, too, Amen, to
that from from one Catholic to a Baptist. I couldn't
agree with you more. And I think I think it's
as I knew that at Presbyterian I apologize. I knew
that I did not mean.
Speaker 3 (19:12):
No, I'm knowing those weird Baptists. Yeah, both agree.
Speaker 2 (19:15):
The best you will have a beer in a public
place in front of others, unlike a bet. If there's
more than one Presbyterian around, they'll still have a beer. Hey,
I do have a I want to go a little
long on this segment though, because I want to take
a deep dive into this topic. I think you have
some great insight here. I think that what you just
pointed out is a consequence of loneliness. The reason that
people are so obsessed with problems that don't affect them
(19:37):
is we live in a world where we're isolated all
the time on computers and social media. And people know
about this case in the Metroplex, all over Texas, all
over America, all over the world, the latest on this,
and I really got to wonder how this shakes out
in a courtroom. The latest on this is now the lawyer, well,
the representative for the the suspect Carmelo Anthony, who stabbed
(20:03):
purportedly stabbed Austin Metcalf, had a track meet, has been
publicly attacking the dat. The spokesperson for the family of
Carmelo Anthony took to x late Monday to attack Austin
Metcalf's father for the second time. How do you you're
let's pretend you're on the jury and you're gonna go
because this will be at a court. There's no way
this doesn't end up in front of a jury. And
(20:24):
you know full well that the representative for the suspect
is out bad mouthing the family of the victim. I
just can't imagine how that plays out well in court
for him.
Speaker 4 (20:34):
Michael, Yeah, no, it again. We live in the social
media age, and we live in this period where all
of us have to care about everything and everything's a
personal slight and everything's everything's everything's everything right. You know,
for all of time, when one person is aggrieved, when
(20:57):
you know there's when there's a a murder, a killing,
a disfigurement, all those kind of things happen, there are
people who are upset, right, and yet generally speaking it's
the parties involved. But yet we have allowed now and
now you cheered on. And and when someone cheer when
I do something objectionable, but people cheer me.
Speaker 3 (21:16):
On, I guess I'm wanna do. I'm gonna do, I'm
gonna do more of it?
Speaker 4 (21:19):
Right we we we are, we are programmed in many
ways to to respond to likes. We responded. We all are,
We're all social creatures. We want social approval. And so this,
this family is going after the victim's father because there's
(21:39):
this very loud uhh, you know, social group around them
who are cheering them on for this. In a in
a slightly different age, there would have been people standing
around them going, oh, yeah, hey, Bob, I think it's
really cool that you made fun of the dead kid's dad.
That's fantastic. But there would have another people saying, no,
(22:01):
that's that's something to come on, let's let's let's let's.
Speaker 3 (22:04):
Let's not do that.
Speaker 4 (22:06):
But yet, today, because of social media, because of all
these new kind of the where a culture is, you
can have, you know, these very loud voices cheering on.
Speaker 3 (22:15):
So you keep doing what what would you would would
you know.
Speaker 4 (22:18):
Where you get that approval and and and and this
is gross, and it's going to and it just leads
to more and more destructive behavior.
Speaker 2 (22:26):
Amen to that. Michael, Can you do one more short
segment with us? I didn't even get a chance to
ask you about the DJ Ken Paxton, Governor Abbott all
going to war in a courtroom figuratively speaking of course. Uh,
can we do one more short segment or do you
need to run?
Speaker 3 (22:40):
No?
Speaker 4 (22:40):
This is great.
Speaker 3 (22:41):
I'd love to.
Speaker 2 (22:41):
Michael quinn Sullivan Texas scorecard dot coments here. I have
often said he's one of the most dangerous men in
Texas political media. There's a reason why he's ended a
career or two. And hopefully in the next segment he'll
end some of your questions you might have about what's
going on right now with Texas indicting five county officials
on election frauds. We'll tell you the story to the government.
(23:03):
I started listening to the Shoes Proceeds.
Speaker 5 (23:06):
Of Happiness Radio with Ky Webster Judio aka producer Kenny.
Speaker 2 (23:13):
I don't know he's playing Danzig on Mother's Day? You
know why? What how tacky? It's like you just just
play the most obvious thing to play on Mother's Day. Well, yeah,
we know how the song goes. It was a one
hit wonder in the nineties. No one even understands what
(23:35):
this is a song about. It was a weird metal
song in the nineties on alternative rock radio and now
morning radio DJ's play it on Mother's Day. I don't
think it even gets played the rest of the year anyway,
it is Mother's Day. I don't know what Katy Perry's
doing for Mother's Day to day, but I would imagine
it probably involves going to Planned Parenthood. I don't know
what Megan Fox is doing on Mother's Day, but I
(23:57):
would imagine it involves her and her three tram sons
going dress shopping or their trans daughters. I don't really
know what the words are for that. I do know
this here in the state of Texas, Ken Paxton will
probably be spending at least part of Mother's Day checking
his email as he once again is involved in a
lot of lawsuits against some very bad people. Say what
you will about Ken Paxton. He's been accused of a
(24:19):
lot of things, but one thing you can't accuse him
of doing is not working hard. This guy does more
than any other attorney general in America. We have just
indicted five county officials in a voter fraud investigation. Michael
Quinn Sullivan is here from Texas squarecard dot Com. Michael,
why wasn't this a bigger news story?
Speaker 4 (24:38):
Well, look at it's a very inconvenient news story. Okay,
it's inconvenient news story for a couple of reasons. The
first reason it's inconvenient is because you have you know,
I'm doing air quotes here, and you got to know
I'm capitalizing these words, right. The national media narrative is
that there's not election fraud, no where, never has there, ever,
(25:02):
in all of human history ever been election fraud. Never
mind that LBJ rigged an election to get elected to
the student council, that he rigged an election elected Congress,
and he rigged an election elected the Assent. You're not
supposed to pay attention to those things. History. History doesn't matter.
History is not real. Nothing's real. You're not real. I'm
not real. And certainly election frauds else and so so
(25:23):
this is this is contrary to that, because you have
people kind of admitting to doing vote harvesting and other
illegal activities.
Speaker 3 (25:30):
Uh So that's reason number one.
Speaker 4 (25:32):
The second reason it's it's inconvenient to the national narrative
and to the Democrats narrative in Texas is because these
are Democrats praying on Democrats. And in fact, what's what's
the one of the most amazing arneds is you look
at at all there have been a lot of election
fraud cases, a lot of ballot fraud cases in Texas.
(25:54):
They don't get reported except by Texas Scorecard generally because
they run contract to the narrative. But what's been fastenings
and all almost every one of these cases, these have
been Democrat officials stealing the votes of Democrat voters in
predominantly Democrat counties and Democrat areas, and.
Speaker 3 (26:13):
So so again it's the this.
Speaker 4 (26:15):
Is literally the Democrat playbook that you know for for
most campaigns, it's you know, you know, get a red,
white and blue yard sign, make sure it's got big
font on it, get a good you know, airbrush, a
picture of yourself. But the Democrats add in steal, steal
the election, still steal ballot fraud. So that's you know,
that that's part of their part of their campaign. And
(26:36):
they don't like it because in many cases they're not
doing it to steal elections from Republicans. They're using it
steal elections from other Democrats, and that's what you have
going on here in Frio County.
Speaker 2 (26:46):
Yeah, it's kind of amazing Texas, of all places. You know,
people that live outside of Texas have such a different
opinion of what our state is like then what it's
actually like. Michael, And you know, I can't think of
a better sampled than this epic city. Oh what's epic city.
It's the uh East Plano Islamic Center. It's a city
(27:07):
for where they say it's been described as a Sharia
law community. They're videos of the guy organizing this housing
development up in the Metroplex and he's been openly admitting
to people that what he wants to do is bring
in Muslims from other countries to live there. I mean,
it's video of him saying it. It's not my opinion. Now,
apparently Abbot and Cornyn and Paxton and many others are
(27:30):
probing the controversial Islamic compound. You guys describe it as
a compound. I think that's probably a good way to
describe it, because if me and my girlfriend, for example,
I don't have one, but if we showed up there
and tried to buy a condo in their community grid,
thank you very much. Yeah, and we were walking around
in the way. Yeah, what's up with that? No, But
(27:50):
you know, if if if, if, if two women moved
in and wanted to wear bikinis and you know, sunbathe
in the front lawn, I don't think they'd be allowed to.
This isn't like a normal housing development, is it.
Speaker 4 (28:02):
Well, you also wouldn't be allowed to sunbathe in a
bikini on the front one.
Speaker 3 (28:07):
But you know, equal opportunity is that.
Speaker 2 (28:09):
I'm actually okay with that. I'm okay with that role.
I think it's more the women can't worry a bikini's
part that bothers me, okay.
Speaker 4 (28:16):
So you know, there's just a whole lot about this
this development that raises lots of questions. Number one and
other people pointed out that it's not entirely clear that
the guys who are selling the property even yet owned
the property, which is its own kind of special land
fraud problem. You see a lot of this is this
(28:36):
is kind of like the Colony Ridge thing where you
had these guys engaging and financing with it, you know,
granted with illegal aliens, tokay. But so side side, for
a brief moment InCom facts, you're Illegiliams. You're still human beings,
and these human beings were being enticed into these what
what you and I would think of as predatory loans
(28:58):
in some ways are probably illegal, but hey, you're targeting
a population that doesn't know the rights, doesn't know I mean,
they're not here illegally all those kind of things. Right,
It's very it is sinful and it is evil, right,
and you see the same kind of things being play
here with and that I think a lot of us
are getting very caught up in the fact that these
(29:19):
are Muslims and that it's Islamic and all those kind
of things, when in fact there's just some very basic Hey,
this doesn't look like this is legal.
Speaker 3 (29:30):
This isn't legit.
Speaker 4 (29:31):
You know, set aside, Do you do you want a
housing to you know, a Muslim housing development. Set that aside,
roma to say, is this an ethical thing to have happened?
And we have the First Amendment for different religion all
those kind of things. Sure, And I think it's very
I think it's very easy for us to get caught
up in the emotion of the islam thing and escape
past the bag. And this is what Greg Abbott and
(29:51):
Ken Paxton and John Cornyn are asking or doing the
various listigations around, are these other kind of very real,
kind of violations of very basic law. Now, then compound
with the fact that these guys are clearly trying to
bring in to the country people to who share a
(30:14):
world of view that you know, may be at odds
with ours. That's a political that's a different cultural and
political problem than the very real legal problems that seem
to exist with this so called epic city and this
model that they're replicating, where you don't actually own the home,
you own the right to live in the home. I mean,
it's this all very weird stuff. This is very contrary
(30:37):
to our Western understanding of property rights that's enshrined a
heart constitutions in our laws.
Speaker 2 (30:43):
Okay, let's talk more about that housing developments in the
state of Texas. There is a bill being passed around
it again, another really underreported thing happening in state legislature
this week. How Spell forty one sixty six is supposed
to replicate more colony ridges around this state. I gotta
think epic cities just as controversial as for those that
(31:03):
don't know epic cities like the Muslim equivalent of what
Colony Ridge is here in the Houston area, Epic City
of course being up in the Metroplex, and Colony Ridge
the largest housing development for illegal immigrants in the country,
probably maybe the western half of the world, if you
could imagine that. And they are actually people trying to
expand this. What is HB forty one sixty six and
(31:24):
what's the latest on it.
Speaker 4 (31:26):
So this was legislation that apparently the masterminds behind Colony Ridge,
we're trying to in some ways shore up the gray areas.
They took advantage of in law to create Colony Ridge
to now kind of make bright light legal what they
(31:48):
had done, but then also have the effect of allowing
those same kind of developments in other places going through
the process. Though over the past two days, that legislation
has has been improved to the point that now probably
does not replicate colony ridges around the state. But but
(32:11):
this is a reminder that you know, you know, the
Colony Ridge was able to exist, the septic city able
to exist, all those things because of these very complicated
laws that move through our legislative process. And I hear
time and time again, Kenny, people well intended people saying, oh,
I don't care about the I just care about results.
Speaker 3 (32:30):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (32:30):
Well, by the time you get to the point of
being able to care about the results is too late.
You've got to care about the process. You've got to
follow these things. And in our system of government where
you and I are supposed to be the sovereign masters
of our republic, you and I have to make sure
we're paying attention. And thank goodness, you had people calling
out this legislation so that it could be fixed, you know,
(32:52):
set aside intentions. Let's just care about you know, about outcomes,
and it's being fixed. I think that's where that that's
that's the import important role that all of us as
citizens have to be ready to play, which is to
pay attention and get in bold.
Speaker 2 (33:06):
You know, Michael quinn Sullivan for a right wing extremist,
do you seem pretty rational? But I don't know. The
Texas Tribune says you're a bad guy and they're always
right about everything.
Speaker 4 (33:17):
I'm sorry to disappoint you, my friend. I'll try to
I'll try to be more rabbid next week.
Speaker 2 (33:21):
What will you and your right wing extremist family be
doing for Mother's Day? This weekend.
Speaker 4 (33:25):
Michael, Hey, I got a great week and I'm going
to pick up my son from college, you know, going
to spend spend Saturday at a gun range he's found
outside Stephenville.
Speaker 3 (33:36):
It's going to be fantastic.
Speaker 4 (33:37):
And then on Sunday, you know, so my wife will
have her baby boy home on Sunday and we will
go to church and probably take her out to both
lunch and dinner and kind of have a have a
fun day of it.
Speaker 2 (33:49):
I love that. I'm sure I've said this before, but
if you and your family are ever down here in
the HTx area, we'll take you guys to Texas Gun Club.
I think you're I think you're you're. Your young man
over there will appreciate It's a cool place to shoot.
Gudzam Michael, Absolutely, I appreciate that. Thanks Folks, texascorecard dot com.

(34:10):
At the very least, follow m Q sullivan on x
or Texas Scorecard. You'll be glad you did.
Speaker 4 (34:15):
It's never too early to learn that the government is
a greedy piglet that suckles on a taxpayer's teat until
they have sore, chapped nipples.
Speaker 2 (34:24):
The Pursuit of Happiness Radio on AM nine fifty KPRC. Yes,
Katie Perry, you know she was just in Houston this week.
She kicked off her tour. She's touring the country. She
sees it as an exciting way to reconnect with her
(34:46):
fan Is.
Speaker 4 (34:48):
This a spoiled, peppered, narcissistic Hollywood brat or what?
Speaker 1 (34:51):
Or what?
Speaker 2 (34:57):
Oh my god, Hollywood. If it was is't for Hollywood,
we wouldn't have any more cocaine and child rape. So
keep up the gray war, Hollywood, Right, Okay, I'm saying
that in jest. Obviously, Disney's opening a theme park in
the Mideast. It'll be like any other Disney theme park.
But everyone thinks Aladdin is racist. That's basically they don't
(35:17):
like Aladdin over there. And that's the craziest thing. We
talked about this yesterday, but we didn't really give it
the time it deserves. Braypart dot Com today is discussing
how the Disney groomers, the child groomers at Disney, have
just announced a construction of a new theme park in
the United Arab Emirates. It's a Middle Eastern country that
criminalizes homosexuality, they say. Disney's CEO Bob Iger says, it's
(35:40):
a thrilling moment for our country. Just throw oh yeah,
we're gonna make so much money off the Muslims. He
said that Disneyland Abu Dhabi will be authentically Disney and
distinctly Emmeradi, which means no gays allowed. This is more
proof this is an unprincipled and demonic company. It's in
(36:00):
more proof they're driven by nothing more than their greed
and their hate. Disney hates normal Americans. They definitely hate you,
which is why they seek to destroy your kids with
drag queens and deadly transsexual propaganda. But here they go
hunting for more money from a country and population that
punishes and persecutes people over how they conduct their personal lives.
(36:22):
The United Arab Memorates has a history of human rights violations,
including the criminalization of consensual same sex sexual conduct between adults.
In twenty twenty three, the US State Department reports penalties
for individuals guilty of consensual a sodomy with a man
include six months in prison. Penalties for men dressed up
(36:43):
as women or entering women's spaces were up to one
year in prison and a twenty seven hundred dollars fine.
Now that's the United Air memorates. Disney, on the other hand,
is the same company that three years ago went to
war with Ron DeSantis over a perfectly reasonable bill that
outlawed expo grade school children to adult sexuality by way
of instruction on sexual orientation. They said, if it's a
(37:06):
preview bess and kid like a five, six, seven, eight
year old, they're too young to learn about sex. There's
nothing in the bill that said you can't tell your
students you're gay. You can tell him that you just
can't talk about gay sex. You could tell your students
I'm a man and I'm in love with another man
and we live together. You can tell him that you
just can't tell him what happens in your bedroom. That's
(37:27):
all the so called don't Say Gay bill ever did,
because there was nothing called it don't say Gay bill.
That title was put on it by Disney because Disney
is a bunch of liars. So now we come to
this important point. One of the sleazy moves Disney CEO
Bob Iiger has made since his return to CEO is
attempted to rewrite his own history with respect to that
Florida anti grooming role bill. He's a degenerate liar, he's
(37:52):
a destroyer of children, and he claims his company screwed
up engaging in the American cultural war. That's what he said.
I don't know, we just messed it up.
Speaker 3 (38:02):
Sorry.
Speaker 2 (38:04):
The former CEO was what was his before before Bob Iger,
they had Bob Chappick, And before Bob Chappick, it was
Bob I Eiger again. So basically he was in exile
and when he came back, he blasted his successor for
not coming out strong against the anti gay bill. He
actually said that out loud. He said, ah, we should
have done more about it. This monster believes that not
(38:25):
exposing little kids to gay porn and not encouraging people
to like tomboy little girls to chop off their breasts
is harmful for them. He actually thinks that. No, hey,
it's his own words. When asked if Disney speaking out
on this issue would hurt business, he said no. He said,
we never really saw much evidence of that. Again, when
(38:48):
you're dealing with right and wrong, and when you're dealing
with something that does not have a profound impact on
your business. I just think you should have to do
what is right. That's an exact quote from him. At
the time, the CEO had been chosen to remain silent
on the Florida bill. The in between Bob Eiger guy
Bob Champick was trying to do the smart thing. But
(39:09):
here is Bob Iger screaming from the sidelines, demanding Champick
take a vocal stand against a groom an anti grooming bill.
To me, that makes him pro grooming. I mean, what
else is it? And now this very same Bob Iiger
is eagerly climbing into bed with Islamic extremists and their
anti gay theocracy. For what money? You think he's going
to come out and put up a gay pride flag
(39:29):
at Disney Abu Dhabi. No, this is pure evil. Decent
parents do not leave their children alone with Disney. They're
not safe. I don't want to leave on that note.
I want to leave with some good news. I feel
like it's nice to have a little good news before
we's too much negativity out there. Here's a nice thought
before we leave. In Michigan, there's a cat that went
(39:52):
missing three years ago. That's the sad part of the story.
The nice part of the story is that Catch has
turned up at a McDonald's ten miles from his own home.
Here is Ella Bennett talking about losing her cat for
three years and then finding it just a short distance
away at a local, popular fast food restaurant.
Speaker 6 (40:09):
It's absolutely insane that he survived that long. We kept hoping, oh,
he'd be back a couple of days, but then it
was a couple of days too long than usual. So
that's when we started to get worried. I'm religious, so
I really believe God has a plan. I immediately sent
it to my Grandma was like, that looks just like Buddy.
I like posted a picture of him on there, and
I was like, do you think this could be him?
Speaker 5 (40:27):
You know?
Speaker 2 (40:28):
Oh? That is the sweetest thing, isn't it.
Speaker 1 (40:30):
Hey?
Speaker 2 (40:31):
Before I get out of here, y'all, mind if I
promote two quick things. I promise I'll make this fast
and I bet you'll be interested in what I'm about
to say. Uh, okay, real quick. First of all, if
you're in the New Orleans area, me and Jesse Peyton
have stand up comedy shows May twenty third at Mandeville
and Louisiana and Mederie May twenty fourth, so that and
will be in fact, we'll be in Jackson, Mississippi on
the twenty second, So May twenty second, Jackson, Mississippi. We
(40:53):
have a stand up comedy show. May twenty third, we're
in Mandeville. May twenty fourth, we're in Metai. If you
follow me on X click the link and the first
tweet that's pinned to the top of my page, and
you'll find links to the purchase tickets to that. Now,
if none of that applies to you, here's one more
thing you might think is interesting. Spring. We're halfway through
spring now, we're getting real close to summer. Summer starts
(41:14):
next month. If you could believe that you're gonna need
beach towels, you're gonna need beach apparel, why not get
some from us? Our stuff is really cool. We've got
Golf of America beach towels, We've got Doge bikinis, we've
got Maga bikinis and swim trunks and all kinds of
cool things. You can get them at ILOVEWJ dot com
right now twenty percent off with promo code Summer twenty.
(41:34):
You go to I LOOVEWJ dot com. Promo code Summer
twenty makes a great place to buy Mother's Day gifts.
I got a run. I love you all. I hope
you guys have a wonderful weekend. Please drive safe, don't
drink and drive out there. We need you back here
bright and early Monday morning for more of what you
bought a radio for.
Speaker 5 (41:54):
You are listening to the Pursuit of Habess Rating. You'll
tell the government to kiss your ass when you listen
to the show.
The Giganic government Sucksseuit of Happiness Radio is deluxe. Liberty
and Freedom will make you smile. Of a suit of happiness.
Us on your radio, Toyle Justice Cheeseburgers a Liberty Rise
at FO.
Speaker 2 (00:19):
We have an American Pope. The new Pope is from Chicago,
which is probably why everybody in Green Bay just became
a Methodist. It also means the Vatican will start serving
deep dish Communion wafers for the first time ever. The
Pope is an American. There are already language barrier issues.
Nobody in the Vatican gets his Seinfeld references. You know,
(00:41):
his first order of business is probably going to be
to get a restraining order against jd.
Speaker 3 (00:46):
Vance.
Speaker 2 (00:46):
Be careful. Jd Vance is wiry and Donald Trump has
congratulated the new Pope by putting a fifty percent teriff
on him. Don't blame the guy. Finally a leader at
the Vatican who speaks English, just like Jesus did. We
welcome friends to an all new edition of Kenny Websterey's
Pursuit of Happiness. If everything goes as planned this afternoon,
(01:07):
and it almost never does, we will be joined by
Michael Quinnsullivan of Texas scorecard dot com and Brandon Darby
at brightbart dot com. So we get to all of
that shortly, but before we begin our after well, actually,
let's first topic here. I think probably the most important
thing to point out is that as we as a
society take a good long look at what's going on
(01:30):
around us, maybe we shouldn't reward people for bad behavior.
The culture war is a term we often use to
describe the ideological and theological feud between people on the
left and people on the right, more specifically in places
like social media, academia, TV, movies, music, You know, the
(01:53):
culture war? Right, do we young people? Do we encourage
them to be pro life? Do we encourage them to
be free marketing? The catch? Do we encourage them being
anti war advocates? Kirsten Fleming at The New York Post
recently pointed out how the culture wars have added a
new front crowdfunding. People get very angry, and when they
(02:15):
get angry, they'll put their hard earned money behind poorly
behaved people and even alleged murderers. Why would they do this, Well,
they do it because these shameless offenders somehow represent their cause,
or so they think. There's very twisted tribal mentality that
we see. There's so many examples right now, but I
think there's really three good ones on full display right
(02:37):
now as we walk into these topics. I just want
you to consider that whether these people suckers I would
call them, believe they're fighting against cancel culture or racial justice,
or rallying against the decadence of a CEO and some
billionaire class, they're making a pretty pathetic financial pledge. It's
(02:57):
as if we're living in a late night commercial for
ambulance chasers. Did you do something odious or anti social
that is terrible real world consequences, You may be entitled
to compensation from your fellow believers. And hey, maybe civilized
people who don't believe in randomly murdering powerful executives on
(03:20):
the street because we're angry about how the laws were
written had a right to be disgusted by the glorification
of Luigi Mangione, the guy allegedly gunned down the United
Healthcare CEO Brian Thompson back in December, and now there
is a musical in San Francisco named after him. I've
not seen it yet, so I'll refrain from reviewing it,
(03:43):
but that does seem a little tacky, although I'll be honest,
if it's funny, I mean, look, if it's funny, it's funny.
I don't know. I don't want to get off topic here.
Supposedly there's a musical in San Francisco right now about
Luigi Mangione in a Brooklyn federal prison with Jiz laying masks.
What's her name? Jiselaine Maxwell, the Epstein Madam Puff, Daddy's
(04:05):
in there. R Kelly's in there, the ceo of FTX
bank Free, Sam bankfant freed, the crypto bro. I don't
know if they're glorifying those people or if it's just
dark humor. I have no idea, but it seems a
little odd, doesn't it. Anyway? This isn't about Broadway musicals
or off Broadway musicals. It's about people giving money to
(04:26):
people like Luigi Mangione. Because what's even more jarring is
the financial support he received. His online fundraising has accumulated
more than a million dollars. But these last two months,
this trend has reached troubling new heights. There's a blonde woman,
she's cute, it's a pretty lady, and she's walking around
on a playground while somebody films her with a cell phone.
(04:50):
Her name is Shiloh. She refers to a young black
autistic child as the N word. Supposedly, I don't know.
I wasn't there when it ha but that's the way
that she has now raised seven hundred and fifty three
thousand dollars on the Internet from people who like her
and don't like black people, I'm presuming. And then there's Carmelo, right,
(05:12):
remember him, Carmelo Anthony. He stabbed a white kid at
a track meet up in the Dallas Fort Worth area.
He's raised over half a million dollars all on social media.
Carmelo Anthony supposedly stabbed seventeen year old Austin Metcalf in
the heart at attract Meat. I think, if I'm not mistaken,
he admitted to doing it. He just said it was
in self defense. Well, the victim died at the scene
(05:34):
and Carmelo was arrested. He admitted he stabbed him, and
yet many rushed to his defense. Sides were drawn racial lines.
Supporters have dumped five hundred and twenty six thousand dollars
into his family's fundraiser. By the way, that woman Shiloh
Hendrix that used the N word. She's from Minnesota, dropping
(05:55):
end bombs on little kids. She claims that she needs
the money because she's in danger. Well it worked. Seven
hundred and fifty thousand dollars. She says she was dosed
by anti white activists on the internet. Is it any
wonder that a dim witted Temple student would use this
same method after it was revealed that he and his
friends visited a Barstool Sports owned joint and added a
(06:19):
F the Jews sign to their bottle service. The student
was a guy named Mohammed Khan. He uploaded the video
of the sign to his own account. F the Jews
barstool boss de Portnoy, you've heard of him, who happens
to be Jewish, kind of flipped out over the situation. Then,
with all eyes on Dave Portnoy, he did something different.
(06:41):
He offered grace. He explicitly said he didn't want to
ruin the kid's life. He threw them a timeline, offered
them a free trip to pull in to visit Auschwitz. Wow.
According to Dave Portnoy, the the guy Mohammed Khan was
crying on the phone and agreed to Go. But suddenly
Khan changed his tune defiantly, so he started to give
send to Go aunt crowdsource funding. He asked people to
(07:04):
help defend him against Dave Portnoy's attacks. Dave Portnoy's sending
you to Poland is getting a free trip to Poland
an attack? Sign me up, I'll go. He listed how
he had been suspended by his school, he got docked,
he was fired from his job. Maybe don't write f
the Jews on your receipt next time you drink in
the bar owned by a Jewish guy. This guy had
(07:26):
an unmitigated goal to claim you as a citizen journalist
merely capturing what was going on. But in his fundraiser,
he said, quote, they have no right to destroy my
life over free speech and what is ultimately an edgy joke,
puzzlingly adding that Portnoy owns the owes him restitution. He
thinks Dave Portnoy owes him money now, and so he
(07:49):
started to give send go account and I think it
worked from what I'm seeing online. He raised fifteen thousand
dollars By proclaiming himself a victim, He's made it impossible
for him to be employable. No company would put up
with someone who lacks the ability and inclination to be
(08:10):
accountable or tell the truth, never mind expressing some terrible
anti Semitic sentiment. When I look at Dave Portnoy, I
don't immediately think like, oh, this jew controls of the media.
There's a lot of people out there. That guy built
his media company from the ground up. Whether it was
he's Jewish or not, He's still put in the work.
It's his business now to plete his case. Temple University's
(08:33):
finest in an interview with the proud Jew hater Stu Peters.
I never heard of him before this week, and now
Kahn has brought Peters into the media spotlight starting an
online fundraiser. Cancel culture was bad when it targeted people
like artists or thinkers or comedians and yes, everyday people
(08:54):
over opinions or jokes that were a little off putting
Kevin Hart telling a gay joke in an old tweet.
Now that the window has been blasted open, one can
make edgy jokes again. You can cancel culture. The pendulum
swung back in the other direction. It certainly seems that way,
But I would say screaming f the Jews, or calling
(09:15):
a toddler an N word. That's not really a joke,
it's just hate. Never mind the whole murder thing with
Carmelo Anthony. Look, I'm still anti cancel culture, and I'm
against making these clowns into heroes. To lionize these people
as dangerous. It only incentivizes and encourages more anti social behavior.
(09:36):
I guess you could say it's a slippery slope. Stop it, government,
get out of my life. You're listening to the Pursuit
of Happiness radio. Remember, everybody, Sunday is Mother's Day. Your
mom told you all she wants from you this year
is love, and I'm here to remind you that is
(09:57):
a lie. She wants a gift, Get her a gift,
get her something. Come on, she's her mom for crying
out out. Imagine what she's put up with if you're
just hurting on your radio. Kind of a long opening
monologue this afternoon, as they talked about the cultural pendulum
swinging back and forth over cancel culture, I always felt
like we were you know, we often get accused of
(10:17):
being extremist on this radio show, and then and then
you find out what an extremist really is.
Speaker 3 (10:22):
Right.
Speaker 2 (10:22):
My next guest, Michael Quinn Sullivan, has been accused of
being on the far right before. Well, what is he
believe in? Liberty and wholesome values? That can't be the
far right? Come on, that's the center right at best.
I think it's a pretty practical position to be in.
You look at what's going on around the country right now.
A few years ago, several years ago, people were getting
canceled for telling jokes, jokes they'd told years earlier. You'll
(10:46):
remember a cooking celebrity, Paula Dene got canceled or fired
from Target for selling a cooking wear line because forty
years later, she supposedly used the N word once and
it wasn't even recorded. I don't even know if it's true, right,
Aziz and Sorry? A popular comedian was you know, I
remember him, Parks and Rex. He was on the TV
(11:08):
show with Amy Poehler. He got canceled in Hollywood because
he went on a date with a female blogger. They
had consensual relations with one another, and then months later
she realized he didn't want to date her again, and
she wrote a blog post that basically made him look
like a rapist. Was it true? It wasn't. The post
didn't even say that he raped her. It just said
that he was a jerk and a misogynist. And he
(11:30):
never worked again because it was right at the height
of the hashtag me too scandal. Okay, to be accurate,
he worked again, but he wasn't the big star that
he was. Now it's gone in the other direction. You
see people are out screaming the N word in public
and they're getting seven hundred thousand dollars in donations online
or stabbing a kid to dath that track meet up
(11:51):
in Frisco. Same thing, right. Luigi Mangiones made over a
million dollars for whether or not he murdered a United
Healthcare ceo. It seems like he did. Michael Quinn Sullivan,
you and I worked pretty hard for a living to
make the money and we make are we working too hard?
I guess all you got to do is stab someone
and screen the N word and you can make a
million bucks in a week.
Speaker 1 (12:11):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (12:12):
I mean, let's be clear.
Speaker 4 (12:14):
You shouldn't stab someone and you shouldn't yell the end word.
Speaker 2 (12:18):
Thank you?
Speaker 4 (12:18):
Yeah, I agree, I agree, Yeah, yeah, there are there there.
You know, you can make a lot of money doing
a lot of very obnoxious, immoral things, right, and that's
you know, kind of get what you pay for and
get returned there. But yeah, I mean, you're you're so
wort the the we've reached this strange place in our
culture where everything gets we allow everything to be pushed
(12:40):
to extremes, and then we're surprised when the pendulum keeps swinging.
Speaker 3 (12:45):
The cultural mass. Cultural mass is hard to push.
Speaker 4 (12:49):
But once you push it, watch out because you've pushed
it and it's moving.
Speaker 3 (12:53):
You know, Newton talked about this.
Speaker 4 (12:55):
You know, an object in motion stays in motion. All
those you know, equal opposite reaction, All the kind of
things come into play in the in the cultural world
as surely as they happen in the physical world. And
which why don't we we should always make sure that
we're acking, you.
Speaker 2 (13:12):
Know, we should take the take on test.
Speaker 4 (13:15):
Do we do we really want to do this? Do
we really want to say? When talking about jokes mobile,
I say about James Gunn, you know, the the very
talented director of the Guardians of the Galaxy series who
it was found out that you know, fifteen ten years
earlier he had posted some you know, maybe some slightly
(13:36):
inappropriate I think sex related jokes on Twitter and uh.
And then he'd kind of moved on and changes change crowthings,
and he was kicked off of directing Gardens of the
Galaxy for a while because of it's just one of
those you know, like what, I what do I want
my son telling those jokes on social media? No, don't
(13:56):
want him some of those jokes with the friends. No
do I think that he should be kicked out of
his jobs for life?
Speaker 3 (14:02):
No?
Speaker 4 (14:03):
Right, I mean, it's that kind of But yet we
we allowed that. In fact, many of us on the
right that happened to James Gun we kind of cheered,
he's kind of a lefty. Oh hey, canceled cultures now
taking out their own, we said. But yet that's that
that's the wrong way for us to be looking at
these bad cultural trends, because because the same thing that
(14:24):
you know caused James Gun to be pushed out, the
same cultural momentum u that you know caused the actor
from Parks and Wreck uh to kind of get you know,
knocked to the wayside, That same cultural momentum you know
now allows you know, the stabby uh, the stabby teenager
up in up in the Metroplex, uh to get you know,
(14:47):
seven hundred and fifty thousand dollars, because it's you know,
it's also culturally crazy. We need to be asking better
questions of what what are we tolerating, what are we
celebrating in our culture, because those what we tolerate, what
we shame, have a way of flipping that and forth.
Speaker 2 (15:00):
I feel like, you know, as you know, I wasn't
born yesterday, So I remember life in the late nineties
and the late nineties, it felt like people were getting
a little sensitive. There was Limp Biscuit in South Park,
and you know, things like that on TV and the
world of music. And then suddenly everyone started getting hyper
sensitive for just a brief, fleeting moment. And then nine
to eleven happened, and suddenly it changed us. Right, we
(15:23):
forgot about all of our stupid problems and we focused
on that. Twenty years later, the pandemic happened, and I
had hoped the same thing would take place, that the
pandemic would cause us all to forget about all the
stupid little issues that were actually pretty inconsequential if not
for the fact that we're making them consequential. And yet
it did. The exact opposite. People being alone at home
all the time with nothing to do but look at
(15:44):
their iPhones back in twenty twenty and twenty twenty one
caused people to be very, very sensitive. And I'm not
really sure how exactly to define it, but is there
some kind of a you know, a landmark moment that
could take place here in the next year or two.
What war in South Asia, warren Eastern Europe, and war
all over the Mideast that would suddenly make people stop
(16:05):
and remember, you know, maybe we shouldn't reward people for
saying the N word or stabbing someone, but similarly, maybe
we shouldn't cancel someone for fifteen year old jokes. I mean,
there's got to be a middle ground. Does it take
a world changing moment to bring us back to that?
Speaker 4 (16:21):
It seems like it kind of does. But I'm and
this is where I'm going to sound like the old man,
you know, shaking his fist at the cloud for a moment.
You know, I do worry that some of these things
are become sort of permanent because in the past, when
you when Kenney Webster late nineteen nineties version of Kenney
(16:41):
Webster told a dumb, bad something your mother would be
offended hearing you say on a stage in a stand
up comedy club. You know, half the audience laughed because
it was an appropriate half of it. Our quarter of
them laughed because they were already drunk. And the other
(17:01):
quarter rolled the rise of what an idiot he ought
to go do talk radio and so stand up comedy right,
you know, you know, you know, and it was done right,
and it was done you know, you know some of
those people, you know, some of the twenty people in
the room. Uh, just you know that's all. That's all
who heard it right? Well today, you now, because my
(17:23):
phone that I keep in my pocket, that goes with
me every everywhere I go, everything coming through it is
very personal, right, So I now take personally, you know,
when someone sent you know, when someone sends me the
video clip of you from nineteen ninety eight telling a
stupid joke at open mic night, suddenly, I now take
(17:43):
that personally because it's on my personal lif I should
take it personally. And I think this is where we
have allowed so many things that are not personal. You know,
whatever stupid joke James Gunn wrote, he wasn't writing it
to me. He didn't send it to me when writing
it for you know, but yet I took it personally.
And this is again, this is a thing that each
(18:05):
of us individually have to work through, this idea of
you know, I don't have to take everything personally. I
don't have to take the events of the day personally.
What Donald Trump says today the Rose Garden does not
impact me personally unless I choose to make it impact
me personally. And you rinstant repeat with all of this stuff.
You know, it is very sad that two high school
(18:28):
boys had had such conflict that one decided to kill
the other. Right, that's very bad. But you know what,
I don't have to be personally engaged in that fight.
I don't be personally engaged in them. I hope and
pray that there's reconciliation, I hope and pray for justice,
all those kind of things, right, but I don't be
personally invested.
Speaker 3 (18:45):
Yeah, but yet we have a.
Speaker 4 (18:47):
Culture that says, you know, damn it, Kinney, you must
care about every tweet and everything.
Speaker 3 (18:53):
That's bad for your brain. Man, that's really bad for
our brain.
Speaker 2 (18:56):
Oh absolutely. I mean, if anything, I think it's a
concept for a soul. By the way, too, Amen, to
that from from one Catholic to a Baptist. I couldn't
agree with you more. And I think I think it's
as I knew that at Presbyterian I apologize. I knew
that I did not mean.
Speaker 3 (19:12):
No, I'm knowing those weird Baptists. Yeah, both agree.
Speaker 2 (19:15):
The best you will have a beer in a public
place in front of others, unlike a bet. If there's
more than one Presbyterian around, they'll still have a beer. Hey,
I do have a I want to go a little
long on this segment though, because I want to take
a deep dive into this topic. I think you have
some great insight here. I think that what you just
pointed out is a consequence of loneliness. The reason that
people are so obsessed with problems that don't affect them
(19:37):
is we live in a world where we're isolated all
the time on computers and social media. And people know
about this case in the Metroplex, all over Texas, all
over America, all over the world, the latest on this,
and I really got to wonder how this shakes out
in a courtroom. The latest on this is now the lawyer, well,
the representative for the the suspect Carmelo Anthony, who stabbed
(20:03):
purportedly stabbed Austin Metcalf, had a track meet, has been
publicly attacking the dat. The spokesperson for the family of
Carmelo Anthony took to x late Monday to attack Austin
Metcalf's father for the second time. How do you you're
let's pretend you're on the jury and you're gonna go
because this will be at a court. There's no way
this doesn't end up in front of a jury. And
(20:24):
you know full well that the representative for the suspect
is out bad mouthing the family of the victim. I
just can't imagine how that plays out well in court
for him.
Speaker 4 (20:34):
Michael, Yeah, no, it again. We live in the social
media age, and we live in this period where all
of us have to care about everything and everything's a
personal slight and everything's everything's everything's everything right. You know,
for all of time, when one person is aggrieved, when
(20:57):
you know there's when there's a a murder, a killing,
a disfigurement, all those kind of things happen, there are
people who are upset, right, and yet generally speaking it's
the parties involved. But yet we have allowed now and
now you cheered on. And and when someone cheer when
I do something objectionable, but people cheer me.
Speaker 3 (21:16):
On, I guess I'm wanna do. I'm gonna do, I'm
gonna do more of it?
Speaker 4 (21:19):
Right we we we are, we are programmed in many
ways to to respond to likes. We responded. We all are,
We're all social creatures. We want social approval. And so this,
this family is going after the victim's father because there's
(21:39):
this very loud uhh, you know, social group around them
who are cheering them on for this. In a in
a slightly different age, there would have been people standing
around them going, oh, yeah, hey, Bob, I think it's
really cool that you made fun of the dead kid's dad.
That's fantastic. But there would have another people saying, no,
(22:01):
that's that's something to come on, let's let's let's let's.
Speaker 3 (22:04):
Let's not do that.
Speaker 4 (22:06):
But yet, today, because of social media, because of all
these new kind of the where a culture is, you
can have, you know, these very loud voices cheering on.
Speaker 3 (22:15):
So you keep doing what what would you would would
you know.
Speaker 4 (22:18):
Where you get that approval and and and and this
is gross, and it's going to and it just leads
to more and more destructive behavior.
Speaker 2 (22:26):
Amen to that. Michael, Can you do one more short
segment with us? I didn't even get a chance to
ask you about the DJ Ken Paxton, Governor Abbott all
going to war in a courtroom figuratively speaking of course. Uh,
can we do one more short segment or do you
need to run?
Speaker 3 (22:40):
No?
Speaker 4 (22:40):
This is great.
Speaker 3 (22:41):
I'd love to.
Speaker 2 (22:41):
Michael quinn Sullivan Texas scorecard dot coments here. I have
often said he's one of the most dangerous men in
Texas political media. There's a reason why he's ended a
career or two. And hopefully in the next segment he'll
end some of your questions you might have about what's
going on right now with Texas indicting five county officials
on election frauds. We'll tell you the story to the government.
(23:03):
I started listening to the Shoes Proceeds.
Speaker 5 (23:06):
Of Happiness Radio with Ky Webster Judio aka producer Kenny.
Speaker 2 (23:13):
I don't know he's playing Danzig on Mother's Day? You
know why? What how tacky? It's like you just just
play the most obvious thing to play on Mother's Day. Well, yeah,
we know how the song goes. It was a one
hit wonder in the nineties. No one even understands what
(23:35):
this is a song about. It was a weird metal
song in the nineties on alternative rock radio and now
morning radio DJ's play it on Mother's Day. I don't
think it even gets played the rest of the year anyway,
it is Mother's Day. I don't know what Katy Perry's
doing for Mother's Day to day, but I would imagine
it probably involves going to Planned Parenthood. I don't know
what Megan Fox is doing on Mother's Day, but I
(23:57):
would imagine it involves her and her three tram sons
going dress shopping or their trans daughters. I don't really
know what the words are for that. I do know
this here in the state of Texas, Ken Paxton will
probably be spending at least part of Mother's Day checking
his email as he once again is involved in a
lot of lawsuits against some very bad people. Say what
you will about Ken Paxton. He's been accused of a
(24:19):
lot of things, but one thing you can't accuse him
of doing is not working hard. This guy does more
than any other attorney general in America. We have just
indicted five county officials in a voter fraud investigation. Michael
Quinn Sullivan is here from Texas squarecard dot Com. Michael,
why wasn't this a bigger news story?
Speaker 4 (24:38):
Well, look at it's a very inconvenient news story. Okay,
it's inconvenient news story for a couple of reasons. The
first reason it's inconvenient is because you have you know,
I'm doing air quotes here, and you got to know
I'm capitalizing these words, right. The national media narrative is
that there's not election fraud, no where, never has there, ever,
(25:02):
in all of human history ever been election fraud. Never
mind that LBJ rigged an election to get elected to
the student council, that he rigged an election elected Congress,
and he rigged an election elected the Assent. You're not
supposed to pay attention to those things. History. History doesn't matter.
History is not real. Nothing's real. You're not real. I'm
not real. And certainly election frauds else and so so
(25:23):
this is this is contrary to that, because you have
people kind of admitting to doing vote harvesting and other
illegal activities.
Speaker 3 (25:30):
Uh So that's reason number one.
Speaker 4 (25:32):
The second reason it's it's inconvenient to the national narrative
and to the Democrats narrative in Texas is because these
are Democrats praying on Democrats. And in fact, what's what's
the one of the most amazing arneds is you look
at at all there have been a lot of election
fraud cases, a lot of ballot fraud cases in Texas.
(25:54):
They don't get reported except by Texas Scorecard generally because
they run contract to the narrative. But what's been fastenings
and all almost every one of these cases, these have
been Democrat officials stealing the votes of Democrat voters in
predominantly Democrat counties and Democrat areas, and.
Speaker 3 (26:13):
So so again it's the this.
Speaker 4 (26:15):
Is literally the Democrat playbook that you know for for
most campaigns, it's you know, you know, get a red,
white and blue yard sign, make sure it's got big
font on it, get a good you know, airbrush, a
picture of yourself. But the Democrats add in steal, steal
the election, still steal ballot fraud. So that's you know,
that that's part of their part of their campaign. And
(26:36):
they don't like it because in many cases they're not
doing it to steal elections from Republicans. They're using it
steal elections from other Democrats, and that's what you have
going on here in Frio County.
Speaker 2 (26:46):
Yeah, it's kind of amazing Texas, of all places. You know,
people that live outside of Texas have such a different
opinion of what our state is like then what it's
actually like. Michael, And you know, I can't think of
a better sampled than this epic city. Oh what's epic city.
It's the uh East Plano Islamic Center. It's a city
(27:07):
for where they say it's been described as a Sharia
law community. They're videos of the guy organizing this housing
development up in the Metroplex and he's been openly admitting
to people that what he wants to do is bring
in Muslims from other countries to live there. I mean,
it's video of him saying it. It's not my opinion. Now,
apparently Abbot and Cornyn and Paxton and many others are
(27:30):
probing the controversial Islamic compound. You guys describe it as
a compound. I think that's probably a good way to
describe it, because if me and my girlfriend, for example,
I don't have one, but if we showed up there
and tried to buy a condo in their community grid,
thank you very much. Yeah, and we were walking around
in the way. Yeah, what's up with that? No, But
(27:50):
you know, if if if, if, if two women moved
in and wanted to wear bikinis and you know, sunbathe
in the front lawn, I don't think they'd be allowed to.
This isn't like a normal housing development, is it.
Speaker 4 (28:02):
Well, you also wouldn't be allowed to sunbathe in a
bikini on the front one.
Speaker 3 (28:07):
But you know, equal opportunity is that.
Speaker 2 (28:09):
I'm actually okay with that. I'm okay with that role.
I think it's more the women can't worry a bikini's
part that bothers me, okay.
Speaker 4 (28:16):
So you know, there's just a whole lot about this
this development that raises lots of questions. Number one and
other people pointed out that it's not entirely clear that
the guys who are selling the property even yet owned
the property, which is its own kind of special land
fraud problem. You see a lot of this is this
(28:36):
is kind of like the Colony Ridge thing where you
had these guys engaging and financing with it, you know,
granted with illegal aliens, tokay. But so side side, for
a brief moment InCom facts, you're Illegiliams. You're still human beings,
and these human beings were being enticed into these what
what you and I would think of as predatory loans
(28:58):
in some ways are probably illegal, but hey, you're targeting
a population that doesn't know the rights, doesn't know I mean,
they're not here illegally all those kind of things. Right,
It's very it is sinful and it is evil, right,
and you see the same kind of things being play
here with and that I think a lot of us
are getting very caught up in the fact that these
(29:19):
are Muslims and that it's Islamic and all those kind
of things, when in fact there's just some very basic Hey,
this doesn't look like this is legal.
Speaker 3 (29:30):
This isn't legit.
Speaker 4 (29:31):
You know, set aside, Do you do you want a
housing to you know, a Muslim housing development. Set that aside,
roma to say, is this an ethical thing to have happened?
And we have the First Amendment for different religion all
those kind of things. Sure, And I think it's very
I think it's very easy for us to get caught
up in the emotion of the islam thing and escape
past the bag. And this is what Greg Abbott and
(29:51):
Ken Paxton and John Cornyn are asking or doing the
various listigations around, are these other kind of very real,
kind of violations of very basic law. Now, then compound
with the fact that these guys are clearly trying to
bring in to the country people to who share a
(30:14):
world of view that you know, may be at odds
with ours. That's a political that's a different cultural and
political problem than the very real legal problems that seem
to exist with this so called epic city and this
model that they're replicating, where you don't actually own the home,
you own the right to live in the home. I mean,
it's this all very weird stuff. This is very contrary
(30:37):
to our Western understanding of property rights that's enshrined a
heart constitutions in our laws.
Speaker 2 (30:43):
Okay, let's talk more about that housing developments in the
state of Texas. There is a bill being passed around
it again, another really underreported thing happening in state legislature
this week. How Spell forty one sixty six is supposed
to replicate more colony ridges around this state. I gotta
think epic cities just as controversial as for those that
(31:03):
don't know epic cities like the Muslim equivalent of what
Colony Ridge is here in the Houston area, Epic City
of course being up in the Metroplex, and Colony Ridge
the largest housing development for illegal immigrants in the country,
probably maybe the western half of the world, if you
could imagine that. And they are actually people trying to
expand this. What is HB forty one sixty six and
(31:24):
what's the latest on it.
Speaker 4 (31:26):
So this was legislation that apparently the masterminds behind Colony Ridge,
we're trying to in some ways shore up the gray areas.
They took advantage of in law to create Colony Ridge
to now kind of make bright light legal what they
(31:48):
had done, but then also have the effect of allowing
those same kind of developments in other places going through
the process. Though over the past two days, that legislation
has has been improved to the point that now probably
does not replicate colony ridges around the state. But but
(32:11):
this is a reminder that you know, you know, the
Colony Ridge was able to exist, the septic city able
to exist, all those things because of these very complicated
laws that move through our legislative process. And I hear
time and time again, Kenny, people well intended people saying, oh,
I don't care about the I just care about results.
Speaker 3 (32:30):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (32:30):
Well, by the time you get to the point of
being able to care about the results is too late.
You've got to care about the process. You've got to
follow these things. And in our system of government where
you and I are supposed to be the sovereign masters
of our republic, you and I have to make sure
we're paying attention. And thank goodness, you had people calling
out this legislation so that it could be fixed, you know,
(32:52):
set aside intentions. Let's just care about you know, about outcomes,
and it's being fixed. I think that's where that that's
that's the import important role that all of us as
citizens have to be ready to play, which is to
pay attention and get in bold.
Speaker 2 (33:06):
You know, Michael quinn Sullivan for a right wing extremist,
do you seem pretty rational? But I don't know. The
Texas Tribune says you're a bad guy and they're always
right about everything.
Speaker 4 (33:17):
I'm sorry to disappoint you, my friend. I'll try to
I'll try to be more rabbid next week.
Speaker 2 (33:21):
What will you and your right wing extremist family be
doing for Mother's Day? This weekend.
Speaker 4 (33:25):
Michael, Hey, I got a great week and I'm going
to pick up my son from college, you know, going
to spend spend Saturday at a gun range he's found
outside Stephenville.
Speaker 3 (33:36):
It's going to be fantastic.
Speaker 4 (33:37):
And then on Sunday, you know, so my wife will
have her baby boy home on Sunday and we will
go to church and probably take her out to both
lunch and dinner and kind of have a have a
fun day of it.
Speaker 2 (33:49):
I love that. I'm sure I've said this before, but
if you and your family are ever down here in
the HTx area, we'll take you guys to Texas Gun Club.
I think you're I think you're you're. Your young man
over there will appreciate It's a cool place to shoot.
Gudzam Michael, Absolutely, I appreciate that. Thanks Folks, texascorecard dot com.
Subscribe to their email list. I know a lot of
you already do. But it's free, it's quick, it's convenient.
(34:10):
At the very least, follow m Q sullivan on x
or Texas Scorecard. You'll be glad you did.
Speaker 4 (34:15):
It's never too early to learn that the government is
a greedy piglet that suckles on a taxpayer's teat until
they have sore, chapped nipples.
Speaker 2 (34:24):
The Pursuit of Happiness Radio on AM nine fifty KPRC. Yes,
Katie Perry, you know she was just in Houston this week.
She kicked off her tour. She's touring the country. She
sees it as an exciting way to reconnect with her
(34:46):
fan Is.
Speaker 4 (34:48):
This a spoiled, peppered, narcissistic Hollywood brat or what?
Speaker 1 (34:51):
Or what?
Speaker 2 (34:57):
Oh my god, Hollywood. If it was is't for Hollywood,
we wouldn't have any more cocaine and child rape. So
keep up the gray war, Hollywood, Right, Okay, I'm saying
that in jest. Obviously, Disney's opening a theme park in
the Mideast. It'll be like any other Disney theme park.
But everyone thinks Aladdin is racist. That's basically they don't
(35:17):
like Aladdin over there. And that's the craziest thing. We
talked about this yesterday, but we didn't really give it
the time it deserves. Braypart dot Com today is discussing
how the Disney groomers, the child groomers at Disney, have
just announced a construction of a new theme park in
the United Arab Emirates. It's a Middle Eastern country that
criminalizes homosexuality, they say. Disney's CEO Bob Iger says, it's
(35:40):
a thrilling moment for our country. Just throw oh yeah,
we're gonna make so much money off the Muslims. He
said that Disneyland Abu Dhabi will be authentically Disney and
distinctly Emmeradi, which means no gays allowed. This is more
proof this is an unprincipled and demonic company. It's in
(36:00):
more proof they're driven by nothing more than their greed
and their hate. Disney hates normal Americans. They definitely hate you,
which is why they seek to destroy your kids with
drag queens and deadly transsexual propaganda. But here they go
hunting for more money from a country and population that
punishes and persecutes people over how they conduct their personal lives.
(36:22):
The United Arab Memorates has a history of human rights violations,
including the criminalization of consensual same sex sexual conduct between adults.
In twenty twenty three, the US State Department reports penalties
for individuals guilty of consensual a sodomy with a man
include six months in prison. Penalties for men dressed up
(36:43):
as women or entering women's spaces were up to one
year in prison and a twenty seven hundred dollars fine.
Now that's the United Air memorates. Disney, on the other hand,
is the same company that three years ago went to
war with Ron DeSantis over a perfectly reasonable bill that
outlawed expo grade school children to adult sexuality by way
of instruction on sexual orientation. They said, if it's a
(37:06):
preview bess and kid like a five, six, seven, eight
year old, they're too young to learn about sex. There's
nothing in the bill that said you can't tell your
students you're gay. You can tell him that you just
can't talk about gay sex. You could tell your students
I'm a man and I'm in love with another man
and we live together. You can tell him that you
just can't tell him what happens in your bedroom. That's
(37:27):
all the so called don't Say Gay bill ever did,
because there was nothing called it don't say Gay bill.
That title was put on it by Disney because Disney
is a bunch of liars. So now we come to
this important point. One of the sleazy moves Disney CEO
Bob Iiger has made since his return to CEO is
attempted to rewrite his own history with respect to that
Florida anti grooming role bill. He's a degenerate liar, he's
(37:52):
a destroyer of children, and he claims his company screwed
up engaging in the American cultural war. That's what he said.
I don't know, we just messed it up.
Speaker 3 (38:02):
Sorry.
Speaker 2 (38:04):
The former CEO was what was his before before Bob Iger,
they had Bob Chappick, And before Bob Chappick, it was
Bob I Eiger again. So basically he was in exile
and when he came back, he blasted his successor for
not coming out strong against the anti gay bill. He
actually said that out loud. He said, ah, we should
have done more about it. This monster believes that not
(38:25):
exposing little kids to gay porn and not encouraging people
to like tomboy little girls to chop off their breasts
is harmful for them. He actually thinks that. No, hey,
it's his own words. When asked if Disney speaking out
on this issue would hurt business, he said no. He said,
we never really saw much evidence of that. Again, when
(38:48):
you're dealing with right and wrong, and when you're dealing
with something that does not have a profound impact on
your business. I just think you should have to do
what is right. That's an exact quote from him. At
the time, the CEO had been chosen to remain silent
on the Florida bill. The in between Bob Eiger guy
Bob Champick was trying to do the smart thing. But
(39:09):
here is Bob Iger screaming from the sidelines, demanding Champick
take a vocal stand against a groom an anti grooming bill.
To me, that makes him pro grooming. I mean, what
else is it? And now this very same Bob Iiger
is eagerly climbing into bed with Islamic extremists and their
anti gay theocracy. For what money? You think he's going
to come out and put up a gay pride flag
(39:29):
at Disney Abu Dhabi. No, this is pure evil. Decent
parents do not leave their children alone with Disney. They're
not safe. I don't want to leave on that note.
I want to leave with some good news. I feel
like it's nice to have a little good news before
we's too much negativity out there. Here's a nice thought
before we leave. In Michigan, there's a cat that went
(39:52):
missing three years ago. That's the sad part of the story.
The nice part of the story is that Catch has
turned up at a McDonald's ten miles from his own home.
Here is Ella Bennett talking about losing her cat for
three years and then finding it just a short distance
away at a local, popular fast food restaurant.
Speaker 6 (40:09):
It's absolutely insane that he survived that long. We kept hoping, oh,
he'd be back a couple of days, but then it
was a couple of days too long than usual. So
that's when we started to get worried. I'm religious, so
I really believe God has a plan. I immediately sent
it to my Grandma was like, that looks just like Buddy.
I like posted a picture of him on there, and
I was like, do you think this could be him?
Speaker 5 (40:27):
You know?
Speaker 2 (40:28):
Oh? That is the sweetest thing, isn't it.
Speaker 1 (40:30):
Hey?
Speaker 2 (40:31):
Before I get out of here, y'all, mind if I
promote two quick things. I promise I'll make this fast
and I bet you'll be interested in what I'm about
to say. Uh, okay, real quick. First of all, if

thing you might think is interesting. Spring. We're halfway through
spring now, we're getting real close to summer. Summer starts
