Speaker 1 (00:00):
Jack ganon government sucks. The suit of happiness radio is
dux liberty and freedom will make you smile of a
suit of happiness on your radio toil, just as cheeseburg
is liberty fries at the food.
Speaker 2 (00:23):
All right, So Monday night football starts up again. Tonight's
Chicago versus which of the following A Minnesota, B Green
Bay see themselves because they won't let Donald Trump deploy
federal troops to the streets of the windy city. I'm
sure you probably know the answer. Hi, everybody, it's Monday.
(00:45):
It's great to be here with you this afternoon. Here's
you stopping by today? Who is stopping by?
Speaker 3 (00:49):
Uh?
Speaker 2 (00:49):
Well, Aaron Reetz is coming up in a little bit.
He's running for attorney general, and I'm gonna look, I'm
gonna give him some tough questions. I don't know what
you think of this guy. I know some of you
like him, some of you don't like him. He's a
candidate for Texas Attorney General, taking on Chip Roy, the congressman,
Joan Huffman, the state senator, Mays Middleton, also a state senator.
See who you like the most. I'd like to give
(01:10):
him an opportunity to be heard. You can decide if
you think he's a good vote or not. Now, who
else is stopping by? Ethan Buchanan is going to be
here in just a little bit. We're gonna talk about
what happened last week with Tim Kaine and Ted Cruz.
Tim Kaine very offended by the fact that anybody would
suggest that our natural rights come from God himself. What
an odd thing to get mad about. That's the Senator
(01:30):
of Virginia, formerly Hillary Clinton's running mate. It's gonna get
weird to stick around for that. And then finally, here's
something that hopefully won't be weird. Today's my mom's seventy
fifth birthday. I'm gonna call her live on the air,
coming up in a little bit. I promise I won't
make it more. It'll be fun. My mom's a sweet lady.
She's making chicken pacada. We're having chicken pacata for Danna
to I Kenny, it's risotto put it might you like hair?
(01:52):
Have a bite? Might be what's for dinner? It's my mom.
I love my mom. Anyway, I love you guys. Thank
you so much for tuning in today when I don't
like is all this disturbing violence you see out on
the streets today. New York Post Today reporting on surveillance
video capturing the very disturbing death of a Ukrainian refugee,
a young woman named Irna Zarutska, riding on a light
(02:14):
rail last month in Charlotte, and she's It's North Carolina, right.
It's impossible to watch the surveillance footage showing this woman
being stabbed to death on a crowded light rail and
not understand that America has a serious crime problem. There's
a twenty three year old woman just sitting there on
the train. Fled a war zone so she could be safe.
He're in the United States. She was a street savvy
(02:36):
enough to hide her beauty under a baseball cap in
shapeless clothing, but it didn't protect her from a career
criminal with hatred in his heart. Crime written blue city.
That's what Charlotte is, and that city failed her. The
Democrat mayor there says, we will never arrest our way
out of the problem. That's actually what the mayor said, Yeah,
you actually can. You can't arrest your way out of
(02:57):
a problem. Donald Trump's crackdown on Washington, DC proves that
that's exactly what cops her for arresting dangerous maniacs, keeping
them off the street. That's the point. This young woman
was out. She had a job, she was commuting. She
probably wouldn't have to work if she didn't watch. She
was a very attractive woman. She could have married into money,
(03:18):
coasted through life on someone else's labor. She had choices.
She didn't take that route. She worked. She had a
job at a pizzeria, standing around brick ovens, taking orders,
putting in hours. That's not the path of someone looking
for a shortcut. That's somebody choosing dignity, somebody choosing independence,
somebody choosing to carve out her life the hard way
(03:39):
on her terms. And for that, she got stabbed to
death by an animal that should never have been roaming free.
This woman's reward for trying to work hard and be
an average person was getting slaughtered in public, like her
life had no value. Her story is the kind of
story that rips the mask off of our society. It
(04:00):
shows you how backwards things are, how upside down things are.
A predator walks again and again. An innocent girl had
an average job. Didn't have to die, but she did.
Her path was noble. The man who murdered her vile,
and yet she's the one gone. It's tragic, but it's
not just a tragedy. It's a verdict on our society itself.
(04:24):
You want to hear something that should make you all
very uncomfortable. White people are victims of black violence and
insanely disproportionate rates. There's actually a movie on Netflix right
now about how a black woman on a train wasn't
safe because a white man was preying on her. Yet
here in real life we see the exact opposite thing happening,
and these disproportionate rate numbers, they're not even close. Between
(04:46):
twenty seventeen and twenty twenty one, black on white violent
incidents totaled two point three to eight million. That's a lot.
White on black violence totaled one point three to seven million.
The annual victimization rate for every one thousand people whites
by blacks two point four, blacks by whites one point
eight per capita, offending rates by the thousands blacks against
(05:10):
whites eleven point six, whites against blacks point three eight.
That's a ratio of thirty one to one. According to
the FBI, for homicides black on white five hundred and
sixty six white on black, not even half of that.
A white person is thirty one times more likely to
be victimized by a black person than the other way around.
Here in the United States, black people make up only
(05:34):
thirteen point six percent of the American population. Tell me
why that is. It's remarkable, right. The truth about urban
crime is actually pretty disturbing. Trump sent the troops out
to Washington, d C. To police the streets, and it worked.
(05:55):
It was declared that he had basically eliminated violent crime
from the city his administration. They should said they plan
to deploy federal law enforcement to the streets of other
Democrat run cities, and weirdly, elected officials in those places said, no,
we don't want your help. We take the side of
the criminals. If you watch liberal cable TV throughout the day,
you'll hear a lot of people political pundits on panels
(06:17):
opining about how they don't want the National Guard coming
to Chicago or Detroit or Memphis or New Orleans because
it endangers illegal immigrants. But weirdly, the National Guard is
not ice. The National Guard is not there to arrest
non citizens or deport anybody. They're just there to stop crime, looting, rioting, vandalism,
(06:39):
petty theft, muggings. There's plenty to debate here regarding federalism.
I get it, law enforcement posse commatatis, it's a Latin word,
you can look it up. Talks about how you're not
supposed to use the military as police. But what if
you're just using the military as a guard. When we
sent the National Guards out to the street to Washington,
(07:00):
d C. They weren't doing any actual police work. They
were just standing around making sure everyone was safe. Their
mere presence was existence enough to deter violence and crime.
So what's the problem. What's controversial about that? It shouldn't
be anything. There are many ways to slice all the
data on crime in American cities. The fairest way to
(07:22):
summarize it would be this, crime in Washington, DC, like
crime in every other major city, has fallen dramatically in
the last year, but it's still too high. At least
it was too high until we put the National Guard
out on the streets, and then it really seemed to help.
If you're offended by that, that means you're on the
side of criminals. And I got to think. Historically speaking,
(07:43):
that's not going to look good when we look back
on this little moment in time and ask ourselves, were
you for crime or were you for law and order?
The government?
Speaker 4 (07:54):
Listen Alive, Listen now to proceed of Happiness Radio, Serginia
per Geezer Kenny.
Speaker 3 (08:04):
All Right.
Speaker 2 (08:04):
Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Aaron Rodgers actually had a great weekend
playing with the new team. The Steelers played against the
Jets over the weekend. Crushed him, Chris, it would be
interesting to see him playing against an actual NFL team,
wouldn't it. I digress. If you're just turning on your radio,
we've been talking about crime, quite a bit of it.
A lot of you have already seen that video of
(08:24):
the Ukrainian refugee being murdered on a train by a
person whose skin color we're not supposed to describe out loud.
I guess it upsets everybody. You know who gets really
pissed about that. The most pissed off Black conservatives. They
don't like it. I've noticed two groups of people are
willing to have honest conversations about race, conservatives and black people.
(08:46):
White liberals don't want to talk about race. Isn't it
kind of interesting how that video of the woman at
the Philadelphia baseball game taking a little boys baseball went
viral at the same time as that video of a
guy on a train, black guy on a train murdering
a Ukrainian refugee. I find it remarkable because the same
woman who took that baseball away is the exact kind
(09:08):
of voter who allowed there to be criminals out on
the street like that in the first place. When you
look at the photos of that guy online, it's like
looking at the opening scene on the Brady Bunch. There
are all these different mugshots filling out the screen. Why
has he been arrested and released so many times? You
know why? Democrat DA Democrat Attorney General, Democrat judicial system,
(09:29):
white shame, white guilt, so tail as old as time.
A lot of this happening around the country right now.
It's disturbing, it's bothersome. There was, I think recently, a
bill that was being proposed in the state of Texas
in the last legislative session that was supposed to do
something about this. It was supposed to hold these radical
leftist judges responsible for when they were actually released at
(09:53):
least partially responsible for arresting and releasing a dangerous criminal
and then lo and behold the person that was supposed
to be in jail to protect the innocent from this
dangerous person. That person got out and they hurt somebody.
What is the point of jail if not to protect
the innocent from the dangerous. It's not rehabilitation, right, It's
certainly not entertainment. We didn't build these facilities so gay
(10:16):
black men could do drugs and have sex with each other.
So why did we build them? It's a good question.
I think I'd love to ask that question to our
next guest, and as a matter of fact, I will.
He's running for Texas Attorney General right now. I know
a lot of you, a lot of you have asked
me why I have not had him on the show.
Did I have something against Aaron Reetz, the Texas Attorney
general candidate, And I don't. He used to work for
(10:38):
Donald Trump's Department of Justice, used to work for Ted Cruz,
used to work with Ken Paxton, A lot of people
you've heard on the show. Obviously, I like those guys. Aaron,
thanks for giving us some time this afternoon.
Speaker 5 (10:50):
Happy to be here, Kenny Aaron, what.
Speaker 2 (10:52):
Do you think about what I just said. You've seen
that video. I mean that guy never should have been
on the streets, right.
Speaker 4 (10:58):
Yeah, he never should have been on the streets. You've
just diagnosed it. You've got all the way up and
down the chain. Nothing but liberal Democrats who are pro crime,
and especially pro serial black criminal. These are this conversation.
Black on white crime is something that we're not allowed
to talk about. And in fact, if you as grotesque
(11:18):
as this event was on the subway, an innocent young
white woman just stabbed in the throat repeatedly while she
gurgled through blood for screaming for help by a monster
that should have been behind bars, Look we have I
posted this shortly after the event happened. A lot of
times we talk about, oh, we have an over incarceration problem,
(11:40):
too many people in jail. I totally disagree with that.
I think America has an underincarceration problem. And I'm not
talking about the people that are in there for low
level violations, but even the ones that screamed about, oh,
we don't need all these people in jail for low
level violations, Well, the reason why they're in jail for
quote unquote low level violation is because they typically get
(12:02):
fled down to lower violations, so the reason for them
being in jail is not even really the reason they
should be there in the first place. It was just
the easiest way for the prosecution to notch a win
on their belts, get them in jail for the minimum
amount of time counted as a w so it goes
through their presented high percentage of convictions. At the end
of the day, though, these are wild, unstable, animalistic criminals
(12:27):
that should never be on our streets and should be
locked up behind bars permanently.
Speaker 5 (12:32):
And if they've got mental illness.
Speaker 4 (12:33):
If they're psychotic, if they've got issues of the head,
I get that, But then why aren't we reopening the
insane asylums?
Speaker 5 (12:40):
No matter what the case, an animal like this should
never be on the streets.
Speaker 4 (12:45):
He should have been locked up the first, second, third, fourth, fifth, sixth,
dozens time that he got arrested.
Speaker 5 (12:51):
I totally agree with you, and look like I hate
that this happened.
Speaker 2 (12:55):
I hate it.
Speaker 4 (12:55):
It's discussing and it infuriates me, But it's reopening a
conversation about America's under incarceration problem, and I hope that
there is a zeal that sweeps through our country that says,
enough is enough.
Speaker 5 (13:08):
We've got to get rid of these guys.
Speaker 4 (13:09):
And by the way, even though that stabbing didn't happen
in Texas, the same exact dynamics are here at play
in Texas, especially in the major blue cities and counties.
You've got radical left wing das and county judges and
judges in the judicial system. Who in Houston where you are,
Harris County where I live, in Austin, Travis County, and
(13:31):
in the other major cities, it's still happening, and that
could come. What we saw on screen all over social media,
not covered by anybody in the mainstream media, but the
clips that we all saw, that's coming to a city
in Texas near you. I guarantee it, because the dynamics
are no different here in the Lone Star State than
they are in places like Charlotte where that stabbing happened.
Speaker 2 (13:49):
All Right, you mentioned the media covered John this so
like it's anecdotal because this just happened. But for the record,
you know, obviously this could change soon. But the New
York Times did hundred ninety seven stories on George Floyd.
They wrote about Trayvon Martin eleven hundred and ninety times.
Daniel Penny got over one hundred articles. Kilmar Abrego Garcia,
(14:10):
the so called Maryland Dad fifty six articles. Irinya Zarutska,
the young woman from Ukraine that was murdered on that
light rail in North Carolina, has zero articles in the
New York Times. Obviously that could change soon at some point.
But do you feel like the liberal media is partially
responsible for this?
Speaker 5 (14:28):
I think they are very much responsible for this.
Speaker 4 (14:31):
Like look we Kenny, you and I ever since twenty
fourteen during the Ferguson event, like from then all the
way through the BLM terror summers of twenty twenty, and
all the stats that you just laid out. The main
the soap called corporate media wants us to believe that
there is some epidemic of burrulent, aggressive, Nazi esque white
(14:56):
racism white on black crime, which just statistic is virtually
non existent relative to the kinds of black on black
and black on white crime that we see which are
off the charts. The problem with this clip, problem with
this incident in North Carolina is it completely up ends
the left wing media's narrative about crime and race relations
(15:20):
in this country, when in reality, it is people like
this murderous, psychopathic animal that are stabbing, gunning, down, stealing,
from hurting, assaulting, battering law abiding citizens all over the country.
Speaker 5 (15:36):
Do I blame the left wing media, You're darn right.
Speaker 4 (15:38):
I blame the left wing media because they are propagating
a narrative that is false while at the same time
hiding the realities.
Speaker 5 (15:47):
Of what's staring at us right in the face.
Speaker 4 (15:49):
And if more people knew the kind of dangers that
lurked around every corner, on every subway stop, on every
bus line, on every dark corners, I think more people
would be alarmed at the kind of crime that has
taken over our public spaces and would push back against it.
Speaker 5 (16:06):
But that's contrary to their narrative, and they don't want
it to happen.
Speaker 2 (16:09):
All right, let's close on this. Could some kind of
a law be written, would it? Would it? Would he
even be constitutional to hold a judge responsible if they
released a dangerous criminal and then the criminal went out
and hurt somebody.
Speaker 4 (16:22):
Yeah, you could foresee legislation that passes that that sort
of reduces the autonomy that judges at a state like
Texas or that district attorneys have in a state like Texas.
Right now, we're very, very decentralized in Texas, and so
these das are kind of like kings of their own
little fiefdoms. And the problem part of the reason why
(16:44):
the legislation like that never passes. It's number one, we
really lacked the kind of strong leadership necessary in our
legislature to get it through.
Speaker 5 (16:52):
But number two, I think even more so.
Speaker 4 (16:55):
You get a lot of the deep red, high quality
law and order district attorneys that don't want the state
looking over their shoulder, and look, they may not deserve
that kind of supervision from the state. The problem is
not really in the deep red rural counties where they
throw the book at criminals. The problem is in the
urban centers that are uniformly blue up and down the chain.
Speaker 5 (17:18):
That's where the problems are happening.
Speaker 4 (17:19):
And so in my mind, if I were in the
legislature and I'm not, I might want to target the
large blue cities and counties to crack down on them
and reduce their autonomy.
Speaker 5 (17:30):
But I'll tell you this.
Speaker 4 (17:30):
You know you mentioned at the top of our hit
that I'm running for Texas Attorney General and as Texas
Attorney General. I'm the only candidate in this race that
has any experience whatsoever from the state, from the state's
position as the state stop lawyer when I was Paxson's
right hand man, and as the only Paxton endorsed candidate
in this race who has experienced herbing the out of
(17:54):
control discretion of left wing das.
Speaker 5 (17:56):
And when I'm elected to the.
Speaker 4 (17:57):
Next Attorney General of Texas, I'm going to bring what
are called quo warrento actions against these guys, quot warento
actions when they've gotten popular all of a sudden because
of the darrelic Democrats that fled the state. You saw
Abbot and Packson bring these lawsuits to remove them from office.
When I'm attorney general, I'm going to bring quot warental
actions against these rogue das that are pro crime and
(18:19):
anti cop seeking them to be removed from office under
the common law claim notice coolrento. So I like strong legislation,
but really fundamentally, what you need, Kenny, is you need
a strong attorney general to hold these guys accountable, to
investigate them, expose them, and then bring suits against them.
And I'm the only guy in this race that has
(18:40):
any experience whatsoever doing that. And I would encourage people
to learn more about me at Aaron Rights dot com,
a R O N R I t Z dot com
or follow me on X Aaron Underscore Rights.
Speaker 5 (18:51):
They'll see I'm the Paxson endorse.
Speaker 4 (18:53):
They'll see that President Trump called me a true MAGA
attorney and a warrior for the Constitution, and that I'm
suited on day one to advance law and order in
Texas at way that my opponents can only hope to bring.
Speaker 2 (19:04):
Aaron Wrights, he's running for Texas AG find him on
X Quick Break. Ethan Buchanan right after this.
Speaker 5 (19:09):
I'm not a fan of the government doing anything.
Speaker 2 (19:13):
This is the pursuit of happiness. Radio on kprc Am
nine fifty. One of our producers is here. Let me
turn your mic on. How do you know, Ethan? How
do you know this lady? She looks exactly like my wife.
We're watching a video in the studio right now of
a woman in China named Tina Auto parts store. Tina.
(19:38):
She's a woman in China who sells auto parts in
a warehouse. Look how clean the warehouse is. Oh wait,
how clean those engines are? And That's what I mean.
And look how clean she is. She's all wearing, she
doesn't do any labor. Why is she so attractive? Do
you know what I mean? Something about that makes me
very nervous. I cannot understand it, very confusing to me.
(20:00):
I mean, it's it's quite the marketing tactic. Yeah, no kidding.
I enjoy Tina auto Partina. And you're uh, you're married
to a Chinese woman. If I'm not mistaken. Ethan Buken
is here one of our one of our producers, one
of the reporters in the newsroom, also hosts a talk
show on Sunday nights that could be heard on KPRC.
And you are a one of these god fearing Christians
(20:22):
who loves democracy and the Constitution and the Declaration of Independence. Yeah,
you know, just like the Iranians. Well apparently that's a
that's what Tim Kaine thinks of you. If you if
I had Tim Kaine and Tim Walls a photo of
both of them on the screen here, would you know
which was which? Yeah?
Speaker 6 (20:39):
I would, but only because I'm in this all day.
Most people, I think, to your point, probably would not.
Speaker 2 (20:43):
Do you think Tim Kaine and Tim Walls would even
know which one of them was, which, oh for sure.
Speaker 7 (20:47):
Not.
Speaker 2 (20:48):
For the record, Tim Kaine is a Senator from Virginia,
and Tim Walls is one of the male cheer cheerleaders
for the Minnesota Vikings. That's that's what he does. Last week,
this SoundBite went viral, and I know, I think we
reacted to it on the Morning show, but we didn't
really have time to talk about it on the afternoon show.
It's kind of terrifying how many members of the Democrat
(21:09):
Party elite senior senators leaders, this guy was Hillary Clinton's
running mate, don't know anything about American history. Listen to
Tim Kaine last week.
Speaker 7 (21:19):
The notion that rights don't come from laws and don't
come from the government, but come from the Creator.
Speaker 5 (21:26):
That's what the Iranian government believes.
Speaker 7 (21:29):
So the statement that our rights do not come from
our laws or our governments is extremely troubling.
Speaker 8 (21:37):
So Senator Kine said in this hearing that he founded
a radical and dangerous notion that you would say our
rights came from God and not from government. I just
walked into the hearing as he was saying that, and
I almost fell out of my chair because that radical
(21:59):
and dangerous notion in his words, is literally the founding
principle upon which the United States of America was created.
Speaker 2 (22:09):
And if you do not believe me, and you.
Speaker 8 (22:11):
Made reference to this, mister Barnes, then you can believe
perhaps the most prominent Virginian to ever serve, Thomas Jefferson,
who wrote in the Declaration of Independence, we hold these
truths to be self evident. Yeah, that all men are
(22:32):
created equal, and that they are endowed by their creator.
Speaker 2 (22:39):
I know in the media on social media, people always
trying to make Ted Cruz seem kooky or weird, but
he really is a brilliant guy and he's funny. He's
good at writing tweets Ted Cruz. I don't care if
it's not cool to like Ted Cruse. He's one of
my favorite people in government. And I say that as
a guy that didn't really have any favorite people in government.
Speaker 6 (22:56):
As far as people in government goes, he's one of
the few decent ones.
Speaker 2 (22:59):
What Ted cru is talking about is so much bigger
than American law or the Declaration of Independence of the Constitution.
He's talking about natural laws. Natural laws are fundamental principles
that govern the behavior of the physical universe, derived from
consistent observations and empirical evidence. Guys. I mean, you have
(23:19):
to understand. This idea that you have the right to
express yourself or defend yourself shapes our understanding of the
universe's order. It raises questions about the origins of why
humans even exist. What is it that makes us different
from animals or you know, bugs or insects or raw
(23:40):
pure evil. As humans, we have the ability to be humane.
We have the ability to show pity and empathy to others.
There's no other species on Earth that can do this. Yeah, no,
that's exactly right.
Speaker 6 (23:52):
It really comes down to the fact that what the
founding Father's state that was so revolutionary was they took
something that has been true forever that all people are
created equal and endowed by their creator with certain unalienable rights.
Speaker 2 (24:07):
That's an objective fact wherever you go.
Speaker 6 (24:09):
They created the first country that not only recognized that,
but built their entire legal system around it. And it
should be concerning to everybody that Tim Kaine is saying this,
because if he doesn't understand this, which is literally the
founding principle of the United States. I mean, it's one
(24:31):
of the first most important things written in the Declaration
of Independence when they list the reasons for why they're
separating from England, and he doesn't understand that. What other
key parts of our government or our civics does he
not understand if he managed to.
Speaker 2 (24:47):
Miss that, that's exactly correct. Now. Another guy he's upset
at right now is our Health and Human Services Secretary
Bobby Kennedy Junior. He's upset that RFK Junior is halting
five hundred million dollars for RNA vaccine research. The guy
who invented mRNA vaccines says they're not ready for human
consumption yet. Says it's amazing technology, it's fascinating, it's going
(25:10):
to change the course of human history. But right now
it's just not safe to take this stuff yet. People
were getting milecarditis at alarming rates, women are being are
having problems with fertility. There's a lot of this happening
right now. I'm not really sure why Bobby Kennedy Junior
is the problem. Apparently there's more firings on the way here.
(25:30):
He is talking yesterday on Sunday. It's hard to listen
to him talk, but he's making a lot of good
points here.
Speaker 9 (25:35):
We literally are we're the worst team in the league.
I've been brought in as a new manager, and my
job is to shake up the organization, to fire the
people who were responsible. Are masking our children with no
science for social distinct orders, with no science.
Speaker 2 (25:54):
Why now, it's amazing that they don't like this. Actually,
the funny thing about it is they do like it.
Listen to the back in two thousand and eight, here
is Bobby Kennedy Junior testifying before Congress saying all the
same stuff he's saying right now, But back then Democrats
liked it.
Speaker 5 (26:09):
I'm about it.
Speaker 10 (26:10):
Eight years ago, the EPA announced that in nineteen states,
it is now unsafety eat any fresh water fish caught
in the state because of mercury contamination. The mercury is
coming from those coal burning power plants. In forty nine states,
at least some of the fish are on Safety eight.
In fact, the only fish state where all of the
fisher safety eight is Dick Chaty's home state of Wyoming,
(26:32):
where the Republicans controlled legislators refused to appropriate the money
to test the fish. We know a lot about mercury now.
According to CDC, the mercury there is one out of
every six American.
Speaker 2 (26:45):
Women boy, it's hard to listen to him talk, but
I agree with his points. I don't want to eat
poisonous food. I don't want to take you know, look,
maybe we shouldn't inject mercury right into our veins.
Speaker 6 (26:56):
You know, it's not the craziest idea, is it an ethan?
It's I had of this idea of the Democrats. The
progressives are all about progress at any cost.
Speaker 2 (27:07):
And listen.
Speaker 6 (27:07):
I love scientific progress, medical progress, advancements, and technology. I
think they're great. But I also recognize that progress and
new technology comes with risk that can and should be mitigated.
If we have great new medical technology like mRNA vaccines,
we should take a lot of time to make sure
(27:30):
that it does exactly what we want it to do
and nothing else before we say, hey, this works for everybody,
And that's somehow controversial. No, we need the progress right now. Well,
if it doesn't work because it's not ready, then it's
not progress.
Speaker 2 (27:45):
Well, they want to sell something before. They want to
sell the car before it's done being manufactured. That these
guys are all in bed with the lobbyists from big pharma.
Of course they want to push a new drug on
you that's not ready for human consumption, which, by the way,
I might point out our own life awmakers, Tim, the
Tim Kynes of the world were exempt from the mandate.
Hey question for you. You're pretty smart for a twenty
(28:06):
two year old. You have a podcast or a radio
show or something I could listen to if I want
to hear more about what conservative zoomers you're talking about.
Speaker 6 (28:13):
You can listen to the next Gen Report wherever you
get podcasts as well as YouTube and x's a it's
a video podcast now on YouTube, and then I upload
it on my X page and then it's it's on
the radio. It's on wherever you get your podcast Sundays
at seven here on KPRC nine fifty seven pm.
Speaker 2 (28:30):
That is, by the way, not seven am on a Sunday.
I won't make you get up that early, but yeah, yeah,
the nerve of anybody making people get up early in
the morning to listen to a radio show discuss how
dare you free? Special leaves on right here on proceeds
(28:52):
I'm Happy to a radio kind of a one hit
wonder from the late sixties. It was a Van Morrison
cover but g l o Ria Gloria. They liked this
version at my mom's high school because she I guess
this band went to high school with my mom and
they got famous, so that was a big deal to
(29:13):
the local kids. Uh, hang on, I don't think I
don't think I diled it right. Let me try that again.
You'd think i'd know my own mom's phone number. Let
me see if I can get it right here. She's
seventy five years old today. Isn't that exciting? Really exciting stuff?
Doesn't All right, we're calling mom. She doesn't answer the phone.
(29:38):
That's gonna be so embarrassing there she is. Hang on,
all right, mom?
Speaker 3 (29:45):
Right here?
Speaker 2 (29:46):
Mom, you're on the radio.
Speaker 3 (29:48):
Oh no, for the afternoon show? Is that with the group?
Speaker 2 (29:54):
Mom? What is this band we're listening to?
Speaker 1 (29:56):
What is this?
Speaker 3 (29:58):
A Shadow of Nights? And they named them of Nights
because we are prospect Nights from my high school? How
about that?
Speaker 2 (30:04):
All right? I hate to correct you, but I believe
the band is called the Shadows of Night. It's not
called Knights. It's not plural. I hate to be that guy,
but I'm I know.
Speaker 3 (30:13):
But Jimmy Sounds told me that, and I went to
his funeral too, by the way, a couple of years ago,
because he died. He was the head of the group.
Speaker 2 (30:22):
So you went to high school with these guys and
then they got famous.
Speaker 3 (30:26):
Yeah, but they did have a couple of other big
songs like Shout. There was a couple of other songs
that were on the radio and that as big as Gloria.
Speaker 2 (30:34):
But any rate, I hate to be the one to
bring it up.
Speaker 3 (30:38):
I know we got it, wrote it.
Speaker 2 (30:40):
It wasn't Shout in Eisley Brothers song, not van Halen, Mom,
Van Morrison. Van Halen didn't exist in the nineteen sixties.
They didn't come on along till years like you should
know that that was your era, not mine, I know.
Speaker 3 (30:54):
But they copied the Kinks song years later van Halen,
which was good.
Speaker 2 (31:00):
Yeah, that's true.
Speaker 3 (31:01):
You really you got a cool version of it.
Speaker 1 (31:04):
Girl, you really.
Speaker 2 (31:05):
Got me now. I love that song. I happen to
agree with you. Shadow of Night.
Speaker 3 (31:09):
I just know that when we went to school in
nine and they made the announcement on the PA system,
you know, all the announcements in their school over the PA,
you know, and they announced that they made it yesterday
to the big one, And I knew that. Even my
cousin from New York even called me cousins that it
was on the radio. It was a big deal. It
(31:31):
just was because these kids were only fifteen, sixteen, and
seventeen years old, all right, this one with Jimmy.
Speaker 2 (31:36):
The way I understood the way I understood this mom
The Shadows of Night. Their whole gimmick, their stick was
that they were an American rock band, but they were
pretending to be a British blues band. They were influenced
by the British That's what he said.
Speaker 3 (31:50):
I know, he told me that.
Speaker 2 (31:51):
And do you believe that? I don't know, because there
isn't it.
Speaker 3 (31:58):
I've heard that too, but I don't know if I
believe it.
Speaker 2 (32:00):
In that kind of amazing that so the British guys
were mimicking American bands. But because it got so popular
the British invasion, you had American bands pretending to be
the British bands who were pretending to be the American bands.
Wasn't that kind of confusing for your generation?
Speaker 3 (32:15):
Well, these were just garage bands. I used to go
over to Weigo Trail when Black Away, and I'd hear
them practicing in Warren Procell's garage, and there was Warren
Rodger's were on procell on those days there was norm
the girl across the street was going study with Joe Stanley.
He was another one. You know, they'd have substitutes in
(32:36):
and out. But Jimmy Sons was the one that was
on the longest. And I saw him in more recent
years and followed him and his wife invited me to
his memorial and there weren't that many prospect people there.
It was a small memorial service in Schomberg, but I.
Speaker 2 (32:52):
Went, all right, so correct me if I'm wrong. But
this was considered to be the original punk rock music.
They were called a garage classic garage punk band. Is
that right?
Speaker 7 (33:00):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (33:00):
They were.
Speaker 3 (33:01):
There were a lot of garage bands then the Buckinghams.
We had a lot in Chicago with the Buckinghams from
Niles West High School, with the Crime Change from Hensdale,
Jim Petderick from id to March.
Speaker 2 (33:13):
We had them all, all right. So back in the day,
this band used to perform at a place called the
Cellar in Arlington Heights.
Speaker 5 (33:18):
What was now?
Speaker 3 (33:20):
I got in trouble for going there. I got grounded.
Why yes, I always fought didn't want me to go there.
What was it?
Speaker 2 (33:25):
What was the cellar?
Speaker 3 (33:27):
It started out it was an a basement in a
church in downtown Arlington Heights, and then it was in
a warehouse. And course this was for kids that of
course were not old enough to go to They weren't
old enough to go to twenty one year old places.
They you know, it was all young kids. But all
of the garage bands that were around the Chicago area
(33:49):
were there. But these guys all made it big. I
mean Buckingham's were big, you know, and.
Speaker 2 (33:55):
What is it called? The bands that performed there included
the IDEs of March, the Buckinghams, the Mods, HP Lovecraft,
Saturday's Children, Ted Nugent with the Amboy Dukes, the Huns,
the Flocks, the Ravens, the Other Half and the Little
Boy Blues. Did you know all those bands?
Speaker 3 (34:12):
Crying Yeah, Crying Shames were there. There were a lot.
And then they were an a warehouse that was by
the Tricks, opposite of where Ernie Blunkliss's offices the Corner
Kitty Corner. He was off a euclid and are no
longer being recorded.
Speaker 2 (34:27):
Mom, you don't know how your iPhone works, do you?
You're hitting a button on your phone that's making it record.
It's Okay, hey mom, you're seventy Oh she got disconnected.
My mom does not own My mom accidentally hit a
button on her phone. This is this radio Segment's going great.
I got a call her back here. She acidentally hit
a button on her phone that said she was recording
and then she got disconnected. All right, let's call her
(34:49):
back here. Hang on a second. Here, it's she's seventy
five today. People, I appreciate. Hey, mom, let's quit talking
about bands from the suburbs of Chicago and the stay
our listeners in Texas don't even know who these people are.
I want to talk about you and what's going on
for your birthday? Aren't Are you doing anything fun today?
What's going on on your seventy fifth birthday?
Speaker 3 (35:09):
Not much because we went out Friday night and my
brother was there and we were at Chicago Prime, but
Tony Ocean wasn't there. So my niece's husband got up
and sang still Stefani, I think I sent you a
tape and he pointed to me and he's sanging a
Neil Diamond song to me, and that was pretty spectacular.
Speaker 2 (35:31):
Well, that's great.
Speaker 3 (35:32):
It was Friday, but that's great. I'm getting ready to
go out of town to Oregon to see my sister
in two days.
Speaker 2 (35:38):
Well, if you had one wish for your birthday today,
you know something I can actually do for you. Obviously
I'm far away, I know, but if I was there,
what would you want for your birthday?
Speaker 3 (35:47):
I would like you to come in even by surprise,
on any weekend soon, Okay, I will.
Speaker 2 (35:55):
I'll do that absolutely October, or I can go down there, but.
Speaker 3 (36:00):
Hopefully before Christmas, because I don't want to just see
you on holidays.
Speaker 2 (36:05):
That's all I get it. I understand why I want
that too. Did you get everything you wanted for your
birthday today?
Speaker 3 (36:12):
Yeah, Lisa gave me some nice things. Yeah, yea's true. Okay,
why I have a feeling make me some pottery and
soap and huh.
Speaker 2 (36:18):
I don't want to spoil the surprise, but I have
a feeling you're going to get some more presents before
the end of the day. That's all I'm saying. I'm
not going to say anything else.
Speaker 3 (36:24):
That's very sweet.
Speaker 2 (36:26):
But in the meantime, how are things in Chicago right now?
That's where you live. You live out in the suburbs.
Trump wants to send that Okay, Trump wants to send
the National Guard there to police the streets because, as you.
Speaker 3 (36:38):
Know, I'm not going down there.
Speaker 2 (36:40):
Well hang on, why don't you tell us, why why
don't you go down to the city.
Speaker 3 (36:46):
Well, I'm not going to go anywhere where there might
be trouble. Of course, I've done Navy peer with every
time I got a relative coming to town. But I've
been staying away, and I don't know. I don't think
that the shootings are really where the tourists and people are.
I think it's on the south side. I think it's
a little village. I think it's in some of those neighborhoods.
(37:06):
I don't think it's dangerous really necessarily to be like
a Millennial park or Navy pier. I think those are okay.
It's and it sounds to me like it's all the
mel it's all. Don't you think it's all game? Mom?
Speaker 2 (37:19):
You keep hit you keep hitting a button on your phone,
you're recording the phone call.
Speaker 1 (37:23):
What it is?
Speaker 5 (37:24):
It's you your posture every time I talk to somebody.
Speaker 2 (37:26):
I know, Mom, it's because you're pushing a button. Hey,
we got to break mom. The show's about to end.
But I just wanted you to know I love you.
You're the best mom I ever had. I love you too, Okay,
and I hope you have a happy birthday.
Speaker 3 (37:36):
Mom. All right, thank you so much. Thank you.
Speaker 2 (37:39):
Hey to the rest of you listening right now, I
love you all as well. Obviously not as much as
I love my own mother, but I still love you all.
I pray for you, I am grateful for you. We'll
be back bright and early tomorrow morning for more of
what you bought a radio for. You are listening to
the
Speaker 7 (37:59):
Prison Happy this radial till the government took Kiss your
ass when you listen to the show.
Jack ganon government sucks. The suit of happiness radio is
dux liberty and freedom will make you smile of a
suit of happiness on your radio toil, just as cheeseburg
is liberty fries at the food.
Speaker 2 (00:23):
All right, So Monday night football starts up again. Tonight's
Chicago versus which of the following A Minnesota, B Green
Bay see themselves because they won't let Donald Trump deploy
federal troops to the streets of the windy city. I'm
sure you probably know the answer. Hi, everybody, it's Monday.
(00:45):
It's great to be here with you this afternoon. Here's
you stopping by today? Who is stopping by?
Speaker 3 (00:49):
Uh?
Speaker 2 (00:49):
Well, Aaron Reetz is coming up in a little bit.
He's running for attorney general, and I'm gonna look, I'm
gonna give him some tough questions. I don't know what
you think of this guy. I know some of you
like him, some of you don't like him. He's a
candidate for Texas Attorney General, taking on Chip Roy, the congressman,
Joan Huffman, the state senator, Mays Middleton, also a state senator.
See who you like the most. I'd like to give
(01:10):
him an opportunity to be heard. You can decide if
you think he's a good vote or not. Now, who
else is stopping by? Ethan Buchanan is going to be
here in just a little bit. We're gonna talk about
what happened last week with Tim Kaine and Ted Cruz.
Tim Kaine very offended by the fact that anybody would
suggest that our natural rights come from God himself. What
an odd thing to get mad about. That's the Senator
(01:30):
of Virginia, formerly Hillary Clinton's running mate. It's gonna get
weird to stick around for that. And then finally, here's
something that hopefully won't be weird. Today's my mom's seventy
fifth birthday. I'm gonna call her live on the air,
coming up in a little bit. I promise I won't
make it more. It'll be fun. My mom's a sweet lady.
She's making chicken pacada. We're having chicken pacata for Danna
to I Kenny, it's risotto put it might you like hair?
(01:52):
Have a bite? Might be what's for dinner? It's my mom.
I love my mom. Anyway, I love you guys. Thank
you so much for tuning in today when I don't
like is all this disturbing violence you see out on
the streets today. New York Post Today reporting on surveillance
video capturing the very disturbing death of a Ukrainian refugee,
a young woman named Irna Zarutska, riding on a light
(02:14):
rail last month in Charlotte, and she's It's North Carolina, right.
It's impossible to watch the surveillance footage showing this woman
being stabbed to death on a crowded light rail and
not understand that America has a serious crime problem. There's
a twenty three year old woman just sitting there on
the train. Fled a war zone so she could be safe.
He're in the United States. She was a street savvy
(02:36):
enough to hide her beauty under a baseball cap in
shapeless clothing, but it didn't protect her from a career
criminal with hatred in his heart. Crime written blue city.
That's what Charlotte is, and that city failed her. The
Democrat mayor there says, we will never arrest our way
out of the problem. That's actually what the mayor said, Yeah,
you actually can. You can't arrest your way out of
(02:57):
a problem. Donald Trump's crackdown on Washington, DC proves that
that's exactly what cops her for arresting dangerous maniacs, keeping
them off the street. That's the point. This young woman
was out. She had a job, she was commuting. She
probably wouldn't have to work if she didn't watch. She
was a very attractive woman. She could have married into money,
(03:18):
coasted through life on someone else's labor. She had choices.
She didn't take that route. She worked. She had a
job at a pizzeria, standing around brick ovens, taking orders,
putting in hours. That's not the path of someone looking
for a shortcut. That's somebody choosing dignity, somebody choosing independence,
somebody choosing to carve out her life the hard way
(03:39):
on her terms. And for that, she got stabbed to
death by an animal that should never have been roaming free.
This woman's reward for trying to work hard and be
an average person was getting slaughtered in public, like her
life had no value. Her story is the kind of
story that rips the mask off of our society. It
(04:00):
shows you how backwards things are, how upside down things are.
A predator walks again and again. An innocent girl had
an average job. Didn't have to die, but she did.
Her path was noble. The man who murdered her vile,
and yet she's the one gone. It's tragic, but it's
not just a tragedy. It's a verdict on our society itself.
(04:24):
You want to hear something that should make you all
very uncomfortable. White people are victims of black violence and
insanely disproportionate rates. There's actually a movie on Netflix right
now about how a black woman on a train wasn't
safe because a white man was preying on her. Yet
here in real life we see the exact opposite thing happening,
and these disproportionate rate numbers, they're not even close. Between
(04:46):
twenty seventeen and twenty twenty one, black on white violent
incidents totaled two point three to eight million. That's a lot.
White on black violence totaled one point three to seven million.
The annual victimization rate for every one thousand people whites
by blacks two point four, blacks by whites one point
eight per capita, offending rates by the thousands blacks against
(05:10):
whites eleven point six, whites against blacks point three eight.
That's a ratio of thirty one to one. According to
the FBI, for homicides black on white five hundred and
sixty six white on black, not even half of that.
A white person is thirty one times more likely to
be victimized by a black person than the other way around.
Here in the United States, black people make up only
(05:34):
thirteen point six percent of the American population. Tell me
why that is. It's remarkable, right. The truth about urban
crime is actually pretty disturbing. Trump sent the troops out
to Washington, d C. To police the streets, and it worked.
(05:55):
It was declared that he had basically eliminated violent crime
from the city his administration. They should said they plan
to deploy federal law enforcement to the streets of other
Democrat run cities, and weirdly, elected officials in those places said, no,
we don't want your help. We take the side of
the criminals. If you watch liberal cable TV throughout the day,
you'll hear a lot of people political pundits on panels
(06:17):
opining about how they don't want the National Guard coming
to Chicago or Detroit or Memphis or New Orleans because
it endangers illegal immigrants. But weirdly, the National Guard is
not ice. The National Guard is not there to arrest
non citizens or deport anybody. They're just there to stop crime, looting, rioting, vandalism,
(06:39):
petty theft, muggings. There's plenty to debate here regarding federalism.
I get it, law enforcement posse commatatis, it's a Latin word,
you can look it up. Talks about how you're not
supposed to use the military as police. But what if
you're just using the military as a guard. When we
sent the National Guards out to the street to Washington,
(07:00):
d C. They weren't doing any actual police work. They
were just standing around making sure everyone was safe. Their
mere presence was existence enough to deter violence and crime.
So what's the problem. What's controversial about that? It shouldn't
be anything. There are many ways to slice all the
data on crime in American cities. The fairest way to
(07:22):
summarize it would be this, crime in Washington, DC, like
crime in every other major city, has fallen dramatically in
the last year, but it's still too high. At least
it was too high until we put the National Guard
out on the streets, and then it really seemed to help.
If you're offended by that, that means you're on the
side of criminals. And I got to think. Historically speaking,
(07:43):
that's not going to look good when we look back
on this little moment in time and ask ourselves, were
you for crime or were you for law and order?
The government?
Speaker 4 (07:54):
Listen Alive, Listen now to proceed of Happiness Radio, Serginia
per Geezer Kenny.
Speaker 3 (08:04):
All Right.
Speaker 2 (08:04):
Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Aaron Rodgers actually had a great weekend
playing with the new team. The Steelers played against the
Jets over the weekend. Crushed him, Chris, it would be
interesting to see him playing against an actual NFL team,
wouldn't it. I digress. If you're just turning on your radio,
we've been talking about crime, quite a bit of it.
A lot of you have already seen that video of
(08:24):
the Ukrainian refugee being murdered on a train by a
person whose skin color we're not supposed to describe out loud.
I guess it upsets everybody. You know who gets really
pissed about that. The most pissed off Black conservatives. They
don't like it. I've noticed two groups of people are
willing to have honest conversations about race, conservatives and black people.
(08:46):
White liberals don't want to talk about race. Isn't it
kind of interesting how that video of the woman at
the Philadelphia baseball game taking a little boys baseball went
viral at the same time as that video of a
guy on a train, black guy on a train murdering
a Ukrainian refugee. I find it remarkable because the same
woman who took that baseball away is the exact kind
(09:08):
of voter who allowed there to be criminals out on
the street like that in the first place. When you
look at the photos of that guy online, it's like
looking at the opening scene on the Brady Bunch. There
are all these different mugshots filling out the screen. Why
has he been arrested and released so many times? You
know why? Democrat DA Democrat Attorney General, Democrat judicial system,
(09:29):
white shame, white guilt, so tail as old as time.
A lot of this happening around the country right now.
It's disturbing, it's bothersome. There was, I think recently, a
bill that was being proposed in the state of Texas
in the last legislative session that was supposed to do
something about this. It was supposed to hold these radical
leftist judges responsible for when they were actually released at
(09:53):
least partially responsible for arresting and releasing a dangerous criminal
and then lo and behold the person that was supposed
to be in jail to protect the innocent from this
dangerous person. That person got out and they hurt somebody.
What is the point of jail if not to protect
the innocent from the dangerous. It's not rehabilitation, right, It's
certainly not entertainment. We didn't build these facilities so gay
(10:16):
black men could do drugs and have sex with each other.
So why did we build them? It's a good question.
I think I'd love to ask that question to our
next guest, and as a matter of fact, I will.
He's running for Texas Attorney General right now. I know
a lot of you, a lot of you have asked
me why I have not had him on the show.
Did I have something against Aaron Reetz, the Texas Attorney
general candidate, And I don't. He used to work for
(10:38):
Donald Trump's Department of Justice, used to work for Ted Cruz,
used to work with Ken Paxton, A lot of people
you've heard on the show. Obviously, I like those guys. Aaron,
thanks for giving us some time this afternoon.
Speaker 5 (10:50):
Happy to be here, Kenny Aaron, what.
Speaker 2 (10:52):
Do you think about what I just said. You've seen
that video. I mean that guy never should have been
on the streets, right.
Speaker 4 (10:58):
Yeah, he never should have been on the streets. You've
just diagnosed it. You've got all the way up and
down the chain. Nothing but liberal Democrats who are pro crime,
and especially pro serial black criminal. These are this conversation.
Black on white crime is something that we're not allowed
to talk about. And in fact, if you as grotesque
(11:18):
as this event was on the subway, an innocent young
white woman just stabbed in the throat repeatedly while she
gurgled through blood for screaming for help by a monster
that should have been behind bars, Look we have I
posted this shortly after the event happened. A lot of
times we talk about, oh, we have an over incarceration problem,
(11:40):
too many people in jail. I totally disagree with that.
I think America has an underincarceration problem. And I'm not
talking about the people that are in there for low
level violations, but even the ones that screamed about, oh,
we don't need all these people in jail for low
level violations, Well, the reason why they're in jail for
quote unquote low level violation is because they typically get
(12:02):
fled down to lower violations, so the reason for them
being in jail is not even really the reason they
should be there in the first place. It was just
the easiest way for the prosecution to notch a win
on their belts, get them in jail for the minimum
amount of time counted as a w so it goes
through their presented high percentage of convictions. At the end
of the day, though, these are wild, unstable, animalistic criminals
(12:27):
that should never be on our streets and should be
locked up behind bars permanently.
Speaker 5 (12:32):
And if they've got mental illness.
Speaker 4 (12:33):
If they're psychotic, if they've got issues of the head,
I get that, But then why aren't we reopening the
insane asylums?
Speaker 5 (12:40):
No matter what the case, an animal like this should
never be on the streets.
Speaker 4 (12:45):
He should have been locked up the first, second, third, fourth, fifth, sixth,
dozens time that he got arrested.
Speaker 5 (12:51):
I totally agree with you, and look like I hate
that this happened.
Speaker 2 (12:55):
I hate it.
Speaker 4 (12:55):
It's discussing and it infuriates me, But it's reopening a
conversation about America's under incarceration problem, and I hope that
there is a zeal that sweeps through our country that says,
enough is enough.
Speaker 5 (13:08):
We've got to get rid of these guys.
Speaker 4 (13:09):
And by the way, even though that stabbing didn't happen
in Texas, the same exact dynamics are here at play
in Texas, especially in the major blue cities and counties.
You've got radical left wing das and county judges and
judges in the judicial system. Who in Houston where you are,
Harris County where I live, in Austin, Travis County, and
(13:31):
in the other major cities, it's still happening, and that
could come. What we saw on screen all over social media,
not covered by anybody in the mainstream media, but the
clips that we all saw, that's coming to a city
in Texas near you. I guarantee it, because the dynamics
are no different here in the Lone Star State than
they are in places like Charlotte where that stabbing happened.
Speaker 2 (13:49):
All Right, you mentioned the media covered John this so
like it's anecdotal because this just happened. But for the record,
you know, obviously this could change soon. But the New
York Times did hundred ninety seven stories on George Floyd.
They wrote about Trayvon Martin eleven hundred and ninety times.
Daniel Penny got over one hundred articles. Kilmar Abrego Garcia,
(14:10):
the so called Maryland Dad fifty six articles. Irinya Zarutska,
the young woman from Ukraine that was murdered on that
light rail in North Carolina, has zero articles in the
New York Times. Obviously that could change soon at some point.
But do you feel like the liberal media is partially
responsible for this?
Speaker 5 (14:28):
I think they are very much responsible for this.
Speaker 4 (14:31):
Like look we Kenny, you and I ever since twenty
fourteen during the Ferguson event, like from then all the
way through the BLM terror summers of twenty twenty, and
all the stats that you just laid out. The main
the soap called corporate media wants us to believe that
there is some epidemic of burrulent, aggressive, Nazi esque white
(14:56):
racism white on black crime, which just statistic is virtually
non existent relative to the kinds of black on black
and black on white crime that we see which are
off the charts. The problem with this clip, problem with
this incident in North Carolina is it completely up ends
the left wing media's narrative about crime and race relations
(15:20):
in this country, when in reality, it is people like
this murderous, psychopathic animal that are stabbing, gunning, down, stealing,
from hurting, assaulting, battering law abiding citizens all over the country.
Speaker 5 (15:36):
Do I blame the left wing media, You're darn right.
Speaker 4 (15:38):
I blame the left wing media because they are propagating
a narrative that is false while at the same time
hiding the realities.
Speaker 5 (15:47):
Of what's staring at us right in the face.
Speaker 4 (15:49):
And if more people knew the kind of dangers that
lurked around every corner, on every subway stop, on every
bus line, on every dark corners, I think more people
would be alarmed at the kind of crime that has
taken over our public spaces and would push back against it.
Speaker 5 (16:06):
But that's contrary to their narrative, and they don't want
it to happen.
Speaker 2 (16:09):
All right, let's close on this. Could some kind of
a law be written, would it? Would it? Would he
even be constitutional to hold a judge responsible if they
released a dangerous criminal and then the criminal went out
and hurt somebody.
Speaker 4 (16:22):
Yeah, you could foresee legislation that passes that that sort
of reduces the autonomy that judges at a state like
Texas or that district attorneys have in a state like Texas.
Right now, we're very, very decentralized in Texas, and so
these das are kind of like kings of their own
little fiefdoms. And the problem part of the reason why
(16:44):
the legislation like that never passes. It's number one, we
really lacked the kind of strong leadership necessary in our
legislature to get it through.
Speaker 5 (16:52):
But number two, I think even more so.
Speaker 4 (16:55):
You get a lot of the deep red, high quality
law and order district attorneys that don't want the state
looking over their shoulder, and look, they may not deserve
that kind of supervision from the state. The problem is
not really in the deep red rural counties where they
throw the book at criminals. The problem is in the
urban centers that are uniformly blue up and down the chain.
Speaker 5 (17:18):
That's where the problems are happening.
Speaker 4 (17:19):
And so in my mind, if I were in the
legislature and I'm not, I might want to target the
large blue cities and counties to crack down on them
and reduce their autonomy.
Speaker 5 (17:30):
But I'll tell you this.
Speaker 4 (17:30):
You know you mentioned at the top of our hit
that I'm running for Texas Attorney General and as Texas
Attorney General. I'm the only candidate in this race that
has any experience whatsoever from the state, from the state's
position as the state stop lawyer when I was Paxson's
right hand man, and as the only Paxton endorsed candidate
in this race who has experienced herbing the out of
(17:54):
control discretion of left wing das.
Speaker 5 (17:56):
And when I'm elected to the.
Speaker 4 (17:57):
Next Attorney General of Texas, I'm going to bring what
are called quo warrento actions against these guys, quot warento
actions when they've gotten popular all of a sudden because
of the darrelic Democrats that fled the state. You saw
Abbot and Packson bring these lawsuits to remove them from office.
When I'm attorney general, I'm going to bring quot warental
actions against these rogue das that are pro crime and
(18:19):
anti cop seeking them to be removed from office under
the common law claim notice coolrento. So I like strong legislation,
but really fundamentally, what you need, Kenny, is you need
a strong attorney general to hold these guys accountable, to
investigate them, expose them, and then bring suits against them.
And I'm the only guy in this race that has
(18:40):
any experience whatsoever doing that. And I would encourage people
to learn more about me at Aaron Rights dot com,
a R O N R I t Z dot com
or follow me on X Aaron Underscore Rights.
Speaker 5 (18:51):
They'll see I'm the Paxson endorse.
Speaker 4 (18:53):
They'll see that President Trump called me a true MAGA
attorney and a warrior for the Constitution, and that I'm
suited on day one to advance law and order in
Texas at way that my opponents can only hope to bring.
Speaker 2 (19:04):
Aaron Wrights, he's running for Texas AG find him on
X Quick Break. Ethan Buchanan right after this.
Speaker 5 (19:09):
I'm not a fan of the government doing anything.
Speaker 2 (19:13):
This is the pursuit of happiness. Radio on kprc Am
nine fifty. One of our producers is here. Let me
turn your mic on. How do you know, Ethan? How
do you know this lady? She looks exactly like my wife.
We're watching a video in the studio right now of
a woman in China named Tina Auto parts store. Tina.
(19:38):
She's a woman in China who sells auto parts in
a warehouse. Look how clean the warehouse is. Oh wait,
how clean those engines are? And That's what I mean.
And look how clean she is. She's all wearing, she
doesn't do any labor. Why is she so attractive? Do
you know what I mean? Something about that makes me
very nervous. I cannot understand it, very confusing to me.
(20:00):
I mean, it's it's quite the marketing tactic. Yeah, no kidding.
I enjoy Tina auto Partina. And you're uh, you're married
to a Chinese woman. If I'm not mistaken. Ethan Buken
is here one of our one of our producers, one
of the reporters in the newsroom, also hosts a talk
show on Sunday nights that could be heard on KPRC.
And you are a one of these god fearing Christians
(20:22):
who loves democracy and the Constitution and the Declaration of Independence. Yeah,
you know, just like the Iranians. Well apparently that's a
that's what Tim Kaine thinks of you. If you if
I had Tim Kaine and Tim Walls a photo of
both of them on the screen here, would you know
which was which? Yeah?
Speaker 6 (20:39):
I would, but only because I'm in this all day.
Most people, I think, to your point, probably would not.
Speaker 2 (20:43):
Do you think Tim Kaine and Tim Walls would even
know which one of them was, which, oh for sure.
Speaker 7 (20:47):
Not.
Speaker 2 (20:48):
For the record, Tim Kaine is a Senator from Virginia,
and Tim Walls is one of the male cheer cheerleaders
for the Minnesota Vikings. That's that's what he does. Last week,
this SoundBite went viral, and I know, I think we
reacted to it on the Morning show, but we didn't
really have time to talk about it on the afternoon show.
It's kind of terrifying how many members of the Democrat
(21:09):
Party elite senior senators leaders, this guy was Hillary Clinton's
running mate, don't know anything about American history. Listen to
Tim Kaine last week.
Speaker 7 (21:19):
The notion that rights don't come from laws and don't
come from the government, but come from the Creator.
Speaker 5 (21:26):
That's what the Iranian government believes.
Speaker 7 (21:29):
So the statement that our rights do not come from
our laws or our governments is extremely troubling.
Speaker 8 (21:37):
So Senator Kine said in this hearing that he founded
a radical and dangerous notion that you would say our
rights came from God and not from government. I just
walked into the hearing as he was saying that, and
I almost fell out of my chair because that radical
(21:59):
and dangerous notion in his words, is literally the founding
principle upon which the United States of America was created.
Speaker 2 (22:09):
And if you do not believe me, and you.
Speaker 8 (22:11):
Made reference to this, mister Barnes, then you can believe
perhaps the most prominent Virginian to ever serve, Thomas Jefferson,
who wrote in the Declaration of Independence, we hold these
truths to be self evident. Yeah, that all men are
(22:32):
created equal, and that they are endowed by their creator.
Speaker 2 (22:39):
I know in the media on social media, people always
trying to make Ted Cruz seem kooky or weird, but
he really is a brilliant guy and he's funny. He's
good at writing tweets Ted Cruz. I don't care if
it's not cool to like Ted Cruse. He's one of
my favorite people in government. And I say that as
a guy that didn't really have any favorite people in government.
Speaker 6 (22:56):
As far as people in government goes, he's one of
the few decent ones.
Speaker 2 (22:59):
What Ted cru is talking about is so much bigger
than American law or the Declaration of Independence of the Constitution.
He's talking about natural laws. Natural laws are fundamental principles
that govern the behavior of the physical universe, derived from
consistent observations and empirical evidence. Guys. I mean, you have
(23:19):
to understand. This idea that you have the right to
express yourself or defend yourself shapes our understanding of the
universe's order. It raises questions about the origins of why
humans even exist. What is it that makes us different
from animals or you know, bugs or insects or raw
(23:40):
pure evil. As humans, we have the ability to be humane.
We have the ability to show pity and empathy to others.
There's no other species on Earth that can do this. Yeah, no,
that's exactly right.
Speaker 6 (23:52):
It really comes down to the fact that what the
founding Father's state that was so revolutionary was they took
something that has been true forever that all people are
created equal and endowed by their creator with certain unalienable rights.
Speaker 2 (24:07):
That's an objective fact wherever you go.
Speaker 6 (24:09):
They created the first country that not only recognized that,
but built their entire legal system around it. And it
should be concerning to everybody that Tim Kaine is saying this,
because if he doesn't understand this, which is literally the
founding principle of the United States. I mean, it's one
(24:31):
of the first most important things written in the Declaration
of Independence when they list the reasons for why they're
separating from England, and he doesn't understand that. What other
key parts of our government or our civics does he
not understand if he managed to.
Speaker 2 (24:47):
Miss that, that's exactly correct. Now. Another guy he's upset
at right now is our Health and Human Services Secretary
Bobby Kennedy Junior. He's upset that RFK Junior is halting
five hundred million dollars for RNA vaccine research. The guy
who invented mRNA vaccines says they're not ready for human
consumption yet. Says it's amazing technology, it's fascinating, it's going
(25:10):
to change the course of human history. But right now
it's just not safe to take this stuff yet. People
were getting milecarditis at alarming rates, women are being are
having problems with fertility. There's a lot of this happening
right now. I'm not really sure why Bobby Kennedy Junior
is the problem. Apparently there's more firings on the way here.
(25:30):
He is talking yesterday on Sunday. It's hard to listen
to him talk, but he's making a lot of good
points here.
Speaker 9 (25:35):
We literally are we're the worst team in the league.
I've been brought in as a new manager, and my
job is to shake up the organization, to fire the
people who were responsible. Are masking our children with no
science for social distinct orders, with no science.
Speaker 2 (25:54):
Why now, it's amazing that they don't like this. Actually,
the funny thing about it is they do like it.
Listen to the back in two thousand and eight, here
is Bobby Kennedy Junior testifying before Congress saying all the
same stuff he's saying right now, But back then Democrats
liked it.
Speaker 5 (26:09):
I'm about it.
Speaker 10 (26:10):
Eight years ago, the EPA announced that in nineteen states,
it is now unsafety eat any fresh water fish caught
in the state because of mercury contamination. The mercury is
coming from those coal burning power plants. In forty nine states,
at least some of the fish are on Safety eight.
In fact, the only fish state where all of the
fisher safety eight is Dick Chaty's home state of Wyoming,
(26:32):
where the Republicans controlled legislators refused to appropriate the money
to test the fish. We know a lot about mercury now.
According to CDC, the mercury there is one out of
every six American.
Speaker 2 (26:45):
Women boy, it's hard to listen to him talk, but
I agree with his points. I don't want to eat
poisonous food. I don't want to take you know, look,
maybe we shouldn't inject mercury right into our veins.
Speaker 6 (26:56):
You know, it's not the craziest idea, is it an ethan?
It's I had of this idea of the Democrats. The
progressives are all about progress at any cost.
Speaker 2 (27:07):
And listen.
Speaker 6 (27:07):
I love scientific progress, medical progress, advancements, and technology. I
think they're great. But I also recognize that progress and
new technology comes with risk that can and should be mitigated.
If we have great new medical technology like mRNA vaccines,
we should take a lot of time to make sure
(27:30):
that it does exactly what we want it to do
and nothing else before we say, hey, this works for everybody,
And that's somehow controversial. No, we need the progress right now. Well,
if it doesn't work because it's not ready, then it's
not progress.
Speaker 2 (27:45):
Well, they want to sell something before. They want to
sell the car before it's done being manufactured. That these
guys are all in bed with the lobbyists from big pharma.
Of course they want to push a new drug on
you that's not ready for human consumption, which, by the way,
I might point out our own life awmakers, Tim, the
Tim Kynes of the world were exempt from the mandate.
Hey question for you. You're pretty smart for a twenty
(28:06):
two year old. You have a podcast or a radio
show or something I could listen to if I want
to hear more about what conservative zoomers you're talking about.
Speaker 6 (28:13):
You can listen to the next Gen Report wherever you
get podcasts as well as YouTube and x's a it's
a video podcast now on YouTube, and then I upload
it on my X page and then it's it's on
the radio. It's on wherever you get your podcast Sundays
at seven here on KPRC nine fifty seven pm.
Speaker 2 (28:30):
That is, by the way, not seven am on a Sunday.
I won't make you get up that early, but yeah, yeah,
the nerve of anybody making people get up early in
the morning to listen to a radio show discuss how
dare you free? Special leaves on right here on proceeds
(28:52):
I'm Happy to a radio kind of a one hit
wonder from the late sixties. It was a Van Morrison
cover but g l o Ria Gloria. They liked this
version at my mom's high school because she I guess
this band went to high school with my mom and
they got famous, so that was a big deal to
(29:13):
the local kids. Uh, hang on, I don't think I
don't think I diled it right. Let me try that again.
You'd think i'd know my own mom's phone number. Let
me see if I can get it right here. She's
seventy five years old today. Isn't that exciting? Really exciting stuff?
Doesn't All right, we're calling mom. She doesn't answer the phone.
(29:38):
That's gonna be so embarrassing there she is. Hang on,
all right, mom?
Speaker 3 (29:45):
Right here?
Speaker 2 (29:46):
Mom, you're on the radio.
Speaker 3 (29:48):
Oh no, for the afternoon show? Is that with the group?
Speaker 2 (29:54):
Mom? What is this band we're listening to?
Speaker 1 (29:56):
What is this?
Speaker 3 (29:58):
A Shadow of Nights? And they named them of Nights
because we are prospect Nights from my high school? How
about that?
Speaker 2 (30:04):
All right? I hate to correct you, but I believe
the band is called the Shadows of Night. It's not
called Knights. It's not plural. I hate to be that guy,
but I'm I know.
Speaker 3 (30:13):
But Jimmy Sounds told me that, and I went to
his funeral too, by the way, a couple of years ago,
because he died. He was the head of the group.
Speaker 2 (30:22):
So you went to high school with these guys and
then they got famous.
Speaker 3 (30:26):
Yeah, but they did have a couple of other big
songs like Shout. There was a couple of other songs
that were on the radio and that as big as Gloria.
Speaker 2 (30:34):
But any rate, I hate to be the one to
bring it up.
Speaker 3 (30:38):
I know we got it, wrote it.
Speaker 2 (30:40):
It wasn't Shout in Eisley Brothers song, not van Halen, Mom,
Van Morrison. Van Halen didn't exist in the nineteen sixties.
They didn't come on along till years like you should
know that that was your era, not mine, I know.
Speaker 3 (30:54):
But they copied the Kinks song years later van Halen,
which was good.
Speaker 2 (31:00):
Yeah, that's true.
Speaker 3 (31:01):
You really you got a cool version of it.
Speaker 1 (31:04):
Girl, you really.
Speaker 2 (31:05):
Got me now. I love that song. I happen to
agree with you. Shadow of Night.
Speaker 3 (31:09):
I just know that when we went to school in
nine and they made the announcement on the PA system,
you know, all the announcements in their school over the PA,
you know, and they announced that they made it yesterday
to the big one, And I knew that. Even my
cousin from New York even called me cousins that it
was on the radio. It was a big deal. It
(31:31):
just was because these kids were only fifteen, sixteen, and
seventeen years old, all right, this one with Jimmy.
Speaker 2 (31:36):
The way I understood the way I understood this mom
The Shadows of Night. Their whole gimmick, their stick was
that they were an American rock band, but they were
pretending to be a British blues band. They were influenced
by the British That's what he said.
Speaker 3 (31:50):
I know, he told me that.
Speaker 2 (31:51):
And do you believe that? I don't know, because there
isn't it.
Speaker 3 (31:58):
I've heard that too, but I don't know if I
believe it.
Speaker 2 (32:00):
In that kind of amazing that so the British guys
were mimicking American bands. But because it got so popular
the British invasion, you had American bands pretending to be
the British bands who were pretending to be the American bands.
Wasn't that kind of confusing for your generation?
Speaker 3 (32:15):
Well, these were just garage bands. I used to go
over to Weigo Trail when Black Away, and I'd hear
them practicing in Warren Procell's garage, and there was Warren
Rodger's were on procell on those days there was norm
the girl across the street was going study with Joe Stanley.
He was another one. You know, they'd have substitutes in
(32:36):
and out. But Jimmy Sons was the one that was
on the longest. And I saw him in more recent
years and followed him and his wife invited me to
his memorial and there weren't that many prospect people there.
It was a small memorial service in Schomberg, but I.
Speaker 2 (32:52):
Went, all right, so correct me if I'm wrong. But
this was considered to be the original punk rock music.
They were called a garage classic garage punk band. Is
that right?
Speaker 7 (33:00):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (33:00):
They were.
Speaker 3 (33:01):
There were a lot of garage bands then the Buckinghams.
We had a lot in Chicago with the Buckinghams from
Niles West High School, with the Crime Change from Hensdale,
Jim Petderick from id to March.
Speaker 2 (33:13):
We had them all, all right. So back in the day,
this band used to perform at a place called the
Cellar in Arlington Heights.
Speaker 5 (33:18):
What was now?
Speaker 3 (33:20):
I got in trouble for going there. I got grounded.
Why yes, I always fought didn't want me to go there.
What was it?
Speaker 2 (33:25):
What was the cellar?
Speaker 3 (33:27):
It started out it was an a basement in a
church in downtown Arlington Heights, and then it was in
a warehouse. And course this was for kids that of
course were not old enough to go to They weren't
old enough to go to twenty one year old places.
They you know, it was all young kids. But all
of the garage bands that were around the Chicago area
(33:49):
were there. But these guys all made it big. I
mean Buckingham's were big, you know, and.
Speaker 2 (33:55):
What is it called? The bands that performed there included
the IDEs of March, the Buckinghams, the Mods, HP Lovecraft,
Saturday's Children, Ted Nugent with the Amboy Dukes, the Huns,
the Flocks, the Ravens, the Other Half and the Little
Boy Blues. Did you know all those bands?
Speaker 3 (34:12):
Crying Yeah, Crying Shames were there. There were a lot.
And then they were an a warehouse that was by
the Tricks, opposite of where Ernie Blunkliss's offices the Corner
Kitty Corner. He was off a euclid and are no
longer being recorded.
Speaker 2 (34:27):
Mom, you don't know how your iPhone works, do you?
You're hitting a button on your phone that's making it record.
It's Okay, hey mom, you're seventy Oh she got disconnected.
My mom does not own My mom accidentally hit a
button on her phone. This is this radio Segment's going great.
I got a call her back here. She acidentally hit
a button on her phone that said she was recording
and then she got disconnected. All right, let's call her
(34:49):
back here. Hang on a second. Here, it's she's seventy
five today. People, I appreciate. Hey, mom, let's quit talking
about bands from the suburbs of Chicago and the stay
our listeners in Texas don't even know who these people are.
I want to talk about you and what's going on
for your birthday? Aren't Are you doing anything fun today?
What's going on on your seventy fifth birthday?
Speaker 3 (35:09):
Not much because we went out Friday night and my
brother was there and we were at Chicago Prime, but
Tony Ocean wasn't there. So my niece's husband got up
and sang still Stefani, I think I sent you a
tape and he pointed to me and he's sanging a
Neil Diamond song to me, and that was pretty spectacular.
Speaker 2 (35:31):
Well, that's great.
Speaker 3 (35:32):
It was Friday, but that's great. I'm getting ready to
go out of town to Oregon to see my sister
in two days.
Speaker 2 (35:38):
Well, if you had one wish for your birthday today,
you know something I can actually do for you. Obviously
I'm far away, I know, but if I was there,
what would you want for your birthday?
Speaker 3 (35:47):
I would like you to come in even by surprise,
on any weekend soon, Okay, I will.
Speaker 2 (35:55):
I'll do that absolutely October, or I can go down there, but.
Speaker 3 (36:00):
Hopefully before Christmas, because I don't want to just see
you on holidays.
Speaker 2 (36:05):
That's all I get it. I understand why I want
that too. Did you get everything you wanted for your
birthday today?
Speaker 3 (36:12):
Yeah, Lisa gave me some nice things. Yeah, yea's true. Okay,
why I have a feeling make me some pottery and
soap and huh.
Speaker 2 (36:18):
I don't want to spoil the surprise, but I have
a feeling you're going to get some more presents before
the end of the day. That's all I'm saying. I'm
not going to say anything else.
Speaker 3 (36:24):
That's very sweet.
Speaker 2 (36:26):
But in the meantime, how are things in Chicago right now?
That's where you live. You live out in the suburbs.
Trump wants to send that Okay, Trump wants to send
the National Guard there to police the streets because, as you.
Speaker 3 (36:38):
Know, I'm not going down there.
Speaker 2 (36:40):
Well hang on, why don't you tell us, why why
don't you go down to the city.
Speaker 3 (36:46):
Well, I'm not going to go anywhere where there might
be trouble. Of course, I've done Navy peer with every
time I got a relative coming to town. But I've
been staying away, and I don't know. I don't think
that the shootings are really where the tourists and people are.
I think it's on the south side. I think it's
a little village. I think it's in some of those neighborhoods.
(37:06):
I don't think it's dangerous really necessarily to be like
a Millennial park or Navy pier. I think those are okay.
It's and it sounds to me like it's all the
mel it's all. Don't you think it's all game? Mom?
Speaker 2 (37:19):
You keep hit you keep hitting a button on your phone,
you're recording the phone call.
Speaker 1 (37:23):
What it is?
Speaker 5 (37:24):
It's you your posture every time I talk to somebody.
Speaker 2 (37:26):
I know, Mom, it's because you're pushing a button. Hey,
we got to break mom. The show's about to end.
But I just wanted you to know I love you.
You're the best mom I ever had. I love you too, Okay,
and I hope you have a happy birthday.
Speaker 3 (37:36):
Mom. All right, thank you so much. Thank you.
Speaker 2 (37:39):
Hey to the rest of you listening right now, I
love you all as well. Obviously not as much as
I love my own mother, but I still love you all.
