Speaker 1 (00:00):
Consistency is not an epidemic, especially when it comes to
consistency and principles. When you look around at social media influencers, politicians, journalists,
you can't help but wonder why they feel so differently
about specific problems depending on who's in charge.
Speaker 2 (00:19):
Yeah, you started kind of talking in code there for
a minute, and I'm really sleepy still, but it sounds
like you're onto something good here.
Speaker 3 (00:27):
I could give you three examples right off the top
of my head.
Speaker 2 (00:30):
You've already impressed me this morning, before the show ever started,
you said something extremely important and I was shocked.
Speaker 3 (00:40):
Was this before we went on the air?
Speaker 2 (00:41):
Oh?
Speaker 3 (00:41):
Yeah, I was it about breakfast.
Speaker 2 (00:43):
No, we were discussing the fact that it felt good
outside yesterday in the middle of the afternoon. The humidity
was really low and it felt great. And you, like
these scientists that claim to know what the weather's going
to do fifty years from now, you figured out why.
Speaker 3 (01:04):
Sure.
Speaker 1 (01:04):
Yeah, yesterday all the Democrats got on a private jet
and they flew to Warrenville, Illinois, the whitest suburb in
the Chicago land area.
Speaker 2 (01:14):
And suddenly no humidity and it felt great out. I say,
let's leave them where they are, Steve. It was suspiciously
nice out yesterday. It couldn't be anything else that. You know,
the climate change people, they won't hear it. If you
suggest maybe it's just one of those things, maybe it's cyclical. No, no,
(01:34):
well then it's the Democrats who calls humidity. And I'm
glad they're going for those of you that are just
scanning the dial of the radio. You just stumbled upon us,
and you don't even.
Speaker 1 (01:43):
Know who we are. We're a regional radio show. We're
not national, we're not local. We are a radio show
for the South, particularly around the Gulf Coast South, but
of course beyond that, and where we are located in
the southern tip of Texas right now, this specific time,
the humidity levels are supposed to be at plus three
(02:03):
hundred percent and the temperature is supposed to be nine
thousand degrees. Yesterday there was a light breeze. It was
eighty five out, it was a little overcast, and the
humidity was low.
Speaker 2 (02:14):
It was real obvious the minute you stepped outside. It's like,
oh my god, what changed? What's different? The Democrats they're gone,
not mean, not all of them, obviously, but the lawmakers
in Austin and it really did make a difference.
Speaker 1 (02:29):
Suspiciously nice out. But that actually raises a great point.
It's what I was talking about when we cracked this mic.
Speaker 3 (02:35):
Right.
Speaker 1 (02:35):
Bill Nye, the not a science guy, is all over
the news today telling us that if we don't vote
for Democrats, the world will be destroyed. And he's saying,
you know, everybody knows I used to work on an
oil patch.
Speaker 3 (02:48):
We'll play the sound by later.
Speaker 2 (02:50):
Nobody knows what Bill n did or what he does
today for that matter, he doesn't really count.
Speaker 3 (02:56):
Bill Nye is not a scientist. He's just not.
Speaker 1 (02:58):
He doesn't do science for He's a guy that talk,
says a talking head pretending to be a scientist. It's
actually the worst kind of person in the science community
because he doesn't have objective scientific method. He just tells
you what is politically partisan in an effort to get
paid by a giant media company. But waltonon Johnson Show,
you guys do that too. No, we're not scientists. We
(03:21):
tell boner jokes about politicians. It's not the same thing.
But anyway, so.
Speaker 2 (03:26):
What's the last time somebody from a major media corporation
told you what to think about a news story exactly.
Speaker 3 (03:32):
Never they're not supposed to. No, they don't. I don't.
Speaker 2 (03:36):
They don't even try because I think they know we're
really stubborn.
Speaker 1 (03:40):
Bill and I has no consistency in principles. If he
cared about what he was saying today in the news,
he would have said it when Joe Biden was president.
Speaking of Rachel Maddow has lost her mind in the
past twenty four hours seeing.
Speaker 3 (03:53):
All mad Cow, I mean Madow. Yeah, don't do that.
Speaker 1 (03:56):
And I don't want to assume her gender because she
does kind of look like that other guy on the network.
There's a guy and a girl on that network. They
look exactly the same, and one of them, I'm pretty
sure is Rachel Maddow. I don't know which is which,
doesn't matter. Gender's fluid. We all agree, sure, Yeah, Rachel
Maddow will do one. Rachel Maddow worked one day a
week for four years.
Speaker 3 (04:16):
Now. You can't get her off TV. Yeah, what's the difference? Exactly.
Speaker 1 (04:20):
The Democrats in the state of Texas right now are
in Warrenville, Illinois. They all got on a private plane
with leather seats and their private bar, and it's quite nice.
So they could fly off to Chicago and drink malort
in old style. That's a joke for people from Chicago.
It doesn't matter.
Speaker 3 (04:37):
You've mentioned milort a time or two in the past.
Speaker 1 (04:40):
It's things people drink in Chicago. And while they're there,
they're complaining about jerrymandering. And they're in the most jerrymandered
state in America. Great and the rest of them went
to New York, which is apparently like second most jerry
matter of course, they they did their divisions a little
differently than Texas. They tried to make sure that the
Democrats at the majority in those states. And look, even
(05:04):
Republicans are guilty of this. There's a social media influencer.
Her name's Valentina Gomez. She claims to be a conservative.
She's a carpetbager. She flies around the country running for
office as a Republican. She recently ran for secretary of
State and Missouri lost. Now she's in Texas trying to
become a lawmaker. She looks like a tranny to me.
(05:26):
I don't know. She's like a deep voice in broad shoulders.
She's been all over social media criticizing Israel until somebody
in the Texas Republican Party offered her a olive branch
to come help promote the flanks of the Rhino movement,
and now suddenly she's pro Israel antijmas. She was at
the state Capitol yesterday giving testimony on some topics she's
(05:49):
not an expert on because she's a fluzy with a
lot of followers on Twitter. Doesn't matter. You could say
whatever you want if someone's paying you for it. Steve
and I have learned, and John and everybody else.
Speaker 3 (06:00):
Our little crew Billy d.
Speaker 1 (06:01):
Of course, sometimes we're just going to say things that
aren't popular. But the point is this pendulum that swings
back and forth. It always moves back in your direction.
After it moves away, it comes back. It doesn't matter
if people like what you're saying, they'll come around if
you're right.
Speaker 3 (06:17):
But when you start saying things just to be popular,
you're scum. You're no better than the politicians you're criticizing. Amen.
Speaker 1 (06:24):
And there's a lot of that happening today. So also
a lot of good breakfast tacos out there. Do you
know why they're just.
Speaker 3 (06:30):
Kind of floating around out there in the universe. We
need to corral a few, and you know, what day
it is, don't you It is.
Speaker 2 (06:39):
Tuesday and you're close NOTAYL.
Speaker 3 (06:42):
Johnson Radio Network.
Speaker 1 (06:44):
If you are one of our affiliates, you're probably wondering
why we're just playing music for the last minute or
so because it was spacey. No I think, man, I
don't even think they were listening to the same thing
as us. We are our our flagship station had to
do an EAS test. Apparently around here, we just bend
our our knees bend over, and we cowtow to the
(07:07):
government whenever they want something around here.
Speaker 3 (07:09):
We talked big about.
Speaker 2 (07:11):
Ten minutes ago and another we are just giving the
government to whatever they want.
Speaker 3 (07:16):
Whenever they say an EAS test. What just to you know,
keep you safe. You're welcome. But the government didn't need
to be telling us what to do.
Speaker 1 (07:25):
The government tells us to do something, we just spread
our cheeks around here. But our affiliates didn't hear the
EAS test. They were just hearing whatever good whatever music
our producer was playing. Anyway, there's nothing we can do
about it. It's not our fault. Our government overlord's demanded
it of us. And apparently the government overlord of one
Illinois congresswoman. What do you call her Delia Ramirez. Why
(07:46):
do I have to learn all these dumb words.
Speaker 2 (07:48):
Yeah, it's a Democrat, not from around here, but somehow.
But really, a lot of these people with names that
are really hard to pronounce occasionally have been elected to
office in America. And when you pull your head up
and look around a little bit and start noticing, you know,
(08:09):
it's not just the squad, It's not just those four.
The squad's even gone to what five, six, seven people now,
and then these people in the news today that you've
never heard of, like Delia Ramirez and da Qua dec
or whatever.
Speaker 3 (08:27):
Taka she named herself after the Dreamer.
Speaker 2 (08:31):
Yeah, there's all kinds of special letters and backwards cues
and all. Of course, she's a Democrat in Maine, and
she announced a couple of weeks ago, if you missed it,
that her mission as a Democrat duly elected in the
state of Maine is to help Somalia.
Speaker 1 (08:49):
Oh yeah, I think I remember hearing Ilhan Omar say
that too.
Speaker 3 (08:52):
Did the same.
Speaker 2 (08:53):
Well, they they were all apparently with this Delia Ramirez
down in Mexico. By the way, Delia, who you'll hear from,
is an anchor baby married to an illegal alien.
Speaker 3 (09:06):
Oh, I love it, and she's in Congress. It's amazing.
Speaker 2 (09:09):
And she's a proud Guatemalan For you didn't get.
Speaker 1 (09:20):
That, well, if you don't speak German, and don't feel
bad because I'm not fluent or Hungarian or whatever that was.
She's saying, I'm a proud Guanmalan before I'm an American.
Speaker 3 (09:31):
She declared this in Spanish.
Speaker 2 (09:32):
And she's not a proud American by any means, but
she's an American just you know, because she got elected
here can't help.
Speaker 1 (09:41):
But notice you have just performed the trees in this act.
That is that is the definition. I think that's a
hyperbolic expression we throw around too much.
Speaker 3 (09:50):
This guy is a trader to his country.
Speaker 1 (09:52):
If you stand at a podium and you tell a
group of foreigners, my allegiance is to you before it's
to my home country, and you're an e did official
and a lawmaker, you've just committed a crime.
Speaker 3 (10:03):
That's the definition of treason. That's what it is.
Speaker 2 (10:07):
Well, she'll be sending the same people that Abbot is
seeking on the Democrat lawmakers from Texas to go get
this woman too.
Speaker 1 (10:15):
I mean, all right, so before we get to that
because I have a lot to say about it. This
woman is in Illinois, where she's a congresswoman, and that's
where all of the traders. Texas Democrats just went to
prove a point about jerrymandering. They joined a woman who's
an anti American lawmaker in a state where they've jerry
probably more jerrymandering than.
Speaker 2 (10:36):
Anywhere, of course, but it's the right kind. It's Democrat controlled.
The jerrymandering in Illinois is comical. It looks like a
child on acid took a cran and drew him out.
It's crazy. But like you just said yesterday, Governor Abbot,
kind of it was. I don't know if you'd call
this a flip flop. He started the.
Speaker 1 (10:55):
Day saying if he wanted to, he could remove all
these people from office.
Speaker 2 (11:00):
Apparently it turned out to be a popular sentiment.
Speaker 1 (11:03):
And then by the end of the day he said,
we're not going to remove them from office. We're just
going to arrest them and force them to go to work,
which isn't quite the same thing.
Speaker 3 (11:10):
Now, in his defense, as.
Speaker 1 (11:12):
Great as the early earlier in the day idea sounds yeah.
I am told by my legal people that explain the
law of I'm not a lawyer. I tell Boner jokes
that what that would entail would be there, we'd have
to have special elections, we wouldn't be able to return
to a legislative session until September. That there would have
(11:32):
to be we'd have to go out and pick people.
And it can't We couldn't just have all the Republicans
show up at work and have no Democrats. It's not
as simple as that. It'd be great, but we can't
do that. Yeah, So instead he's saying, we're going to
send agents of the government to detain these people and
force them to go to work. Now that's fascinating because
at the end of the day, what this all boils
(11:54):
down to is Governor Abbot and Donald Trump are trying
to get five new congresstional seats for next year's midterm elections.
Speaker 3 (12:03):
And if that.
Speaker 1 (12:03):
Bothers you, if you're one of those people that thinks
that's jerrymandering or rigging an or dictatorship or whatever it
may be, that's what we're doing is legal. We can
do that anytime we want. We can redraw the congressional districts.
Illinois did it. Part of the reason why you don't
see this happening in all the big blue states.
Speaker 3 (12:20):
They've already done it. They did it a long time.
Speaker 2 (12:22):
Ago and didn't calls a stir did it. It may
have locally, but nobody cared for long now. Gavin Newsom,
mister haircut in California. He's weighing in on the Texas
lawmakers now and he says, if Abbott tries this, then
they'll do it in his state. Only they've already done
(12:45):
it in California many times.
Speaker 1 (12:47):
Not only have they already done it in California, they
jerrymanders so much that in an effort to make sure
their work never gets undone, they passed a law in
their state preventing them, which is hilarious. Apparently, he just
put down the fork on his five hundred dollars a
plate dinner at French laundry, and he's very mad at
the people in Texas.
Speaker 3 (13:06):
You have interrupted my dinner. We'll tell you about it.

where all of the traders. Texas Democrats just went to
prove a point about jerrymandering. They joined a woman who's
an anti American lawmaker in a state where they've jerry
probably more jerrymandering than.
Speaker 2 (10:36):
Anywhere, of course, but it's the right kind. It's Democrat controlled.
The jerrymandering in Illinois is comical. It looks like a
child on acid took a cran and drew him out.
It's crazy. But like you just said yesterday, Governor Abbot,
kind of it was. I don't know if you'd call
this a flip flop. He started the.
Speaker 1 (10:55):
Day saying if he wanted to, he could remove all
these people from office.
Speaker 2 (11:00):
Apparently it turned out to be a popular sentiment.
Speaker 1 (11:03):
And then by the end of the day he said,
we're not going to remove them from office. We're just
going to arrest them and force them to go to work,
which isn't quite the same thing.
Speaker 3 (11:10):
Now, in his defense, as.
Speaker 1 (11:12):
Great as the early earlier in the day idea sounds yeah.
I am told by my legal people that explain the
law of I'm not a lawyer. I tell Boner jokes
that what that would entail would be there, we'd have
to have special elections, we wouldn't be able to return
to a legislative session until September. That there would have
(11:32):
to be we'd have to go out and pick people.
And it can't We couldn't just have all the Republicans
show up at work and have no Democrats. It's not
as simple as that. It'd be great, but we can't
do that. Yeah, So instead he's saying, we're going to
send agents of the government to detain these people and
force them to go to work. Now that's fascinating because
at the end of the day, what this all boils
(11:54):
down to is Governor Abbot and Donald Trump are trying
to get five new congresstional seats for next year's midterm elections.
Speaker 3 (12:03):
And if that.
Speaker 1 (12:03):
Bothers you, if you're one of those people that thinks
that's jerrymandering or rigging an or dictatorship or whatever it
may be, that's what we're doing is legal. We can
do that anytime we want. We can redraw the congressional districts.
Illinois did it. Part of the reason why you don't
see this happening in all the big blue states.
Speaker 3 (12:20):
They've already done it. They did it a long time.
Speaker 2 (12:22):
Ago and didn't calls a stir did it. It may
have locally, but nobody cared for long now. Gavin Newsom,
mister haircut in California. He's weighing in on the Texas
lawmakers now and he says, if Abbott tries this, then
they'll do it in his state. Only they've already done
(12:45):
it in California many times.
Speaker 1 (12:47):
Not only have they already done it in California, they
jerrymanders so much that in an effort to make sure
their work never gets undone, they passed a law in
their state preventing them, which is hilarious. Apparently, he just
put down the fork on his five hundred dollars a
plate dinner at French laundry, and he's very mad at
the people in Texas.
Speaker 3 (13:06):
You have interrupted my dinner. We'll tell you about it.
Hang on the show, Happy Tuesday, everybody. Wilson and Johnson
