Jack gana government sucks suit of happiness. Radio is doux
Liberty and freedom will make you smile. The a Suda
happen and us on your radio to ol justice, cheeseburgers,
a liby fries at food.
Speaker 2 (00:21):
It's National Barbie Day. Barbie's the ideal woman. Supposedly, she
has a nice house, she's got a cool car, and
she doesn't even mind that her boyfriend lacks genitals. So
there you go, everybody, Happy National Barbie Day. Uh, We're
gonna have Latina Barbie on the show today. Maybe that's
an insulting way of explaining who she is. She's a
good guest. Sarah Gonzal is one of my favorite people
(00:42):
in conservative media. Strong, bold, beautiful mom from the Dallas
Fort Worth area, host of Gonzales Unfiltered Show. Be here
with us. Stick around for that, and I believe we're
getting a visit from Daniel Turner. Is gonna be stopping
from a Power of the Future. We're gonna talk about
how this war, this war is affecting the cost of oil,
(01:02):
among other things. So stick around for that, all right,
So let's get right into this kids. The fireworks are
still popping over tran In this glorious mess called Operation
Epic Fury. It's the Iranian regime's last attempt to nurse
a grudge against Donald Trump. A Brooklyn jury back here
at home just convicted this Pakistani guy asief merchant, some
(01:26):
discount soup peddler. They say, Tyrann handpicked. Is their budget
James Bond. Yeah, the same regime that can't keep the
lights on in their country thought this clown could pull
off the triple play Whack Biden, Whack Trump, whack Nikki
Hanley like it was a buy one, get too free
special at the Hitman Discount. And so anyway, we're now
(01:47):
knee deep in Operation Epic Fury, and we're out arresting
people for trying to kill people here in America to
support the war. Look, I'm not popping champagne over this war.
I didn't wake up one morning thinking, you know what,
the world needs another never war in the mid East.
But we're involved in it. So I'd like to win
at the very least if we're in it, and brother,
we are in it the damn right. I want us
(02:08):
to win, not win like some polite participation trophy where
we bomb a few sites and declare victory and leave
the regime to rebuild their nuclear factory over brunch. I
mean win win, like the regime ends up as scattered
as confetiot a losing Super Bowl parade. Supreme leaders already
doing the eternal dirt nap, the Navy's decorating the Gulf floor.
(02:30):
The missiles are mostly quiet now good, keep going, crush
the missile production, sink what's left to their fleet. I'm
not cheering for the war. War sucks. They cost blood, treasure.
What seven American gis already dead? How many more gold
star families do we need? But half assing It's not
an option. That's how you get endless cycles of contain
(02:51):
and repeat. If the choice is between dragging this out
for decades like the last few ventures, are finishing the
job decisively so our grandkids don't inherit the same headache,
then do it right. Finish it win big, win ugly.
If you have to just win because the alternative is
in peace, it's waiting for the next plot, the next
proxy attack, the next this time, it won't miss postcard
(03:13):
from Tehran. If we're paying the price anyway, make sure
the bill gets sent to them in full, with interest
and no refunds and remember that bargain bin Pakistani hitman.
They pin their hopes. I'm back in twenty twenty four,
the one who thought he was going to take down Trump, Biden,
and Haley like a Black Friday triple homicide. Yeah, he
got convicted, locked up, and his big career move fizzled
(03:34):
harder than Iran's Navy, just like this regime's grand plan.
Dead on arrival, out of style, headed straight for the
history books. Ays what not to do when you poke America? Lesson,
stay sharp, America. We're fighting big. Hopefully we end this
war the right way. Hello, my name is Pedro.
Speaker 3 (03:55):
My favorite things to do is smuggle drugs, pro create
like a rabbit, and sent to pursue of happiness radio
with producer KINI please Dovie.
Speaker 2 (04:07):
All right, I ran just named Majaba Kamani as their
new Supreme Leader and this just in there looking for
a new Supreme leader. Wow, that was quick. That must
be must be some kind of a record up hang
on incoming. Yep, yep, that's right. I'm playing racially insensitive
(04:31):
bumper music for my next guest. Ladies and gentlemen. I'm
a huge fan of this person. I really am. She
is I think one of the strongest, coolest chicks in
Texas conservative media. Please welcome the fearless, unfiltered voice of
conservative commentary. She's a spicy Latina powerhouse host of Sarah
Gonzales Unfiltered on Blaze TV and the Driving Force Betime
(04:52):
behind Come and take it with Texas Scorecard. Very sharp wit,
no no holds bar take on news and culture, unwavering
commit add to truth and Texas values. Ladies and gentlemen,
Welcome to Pursuit of Happiness Radio. It's Sarah Gonzalez.
Speaker 4 (05:07):
Wow.
Speaker 5 (05:08):
What an introduction. Thank you so much.
Speaker 2 (05:10):
Take an honor. Thank you very much. I was warming
that up all morning. I had to I had to learn.
I had to learn how to pronounce your last name.
I'm not good with the Latina vowels. I'll have to
teach you, Sarah. You and I I think around the
same wing of the Texas political you know, the Texas
Conservative movement. I've noticed there's two groups of people that
(05:30):
are real opinionated about the Paxton corn In feud. And
I've noticed every time I find someone who's not on
our side when I go to check on social media,
when I look up the person's bio. Someone goes viral
for their anti corn post or whatever, are their anti
Paxton post. It's always a person who worked in Austin,
(05:51):
who worked in Washington, d C. John Cornyn retweeted this
guy yesterday. It looked like some average guy, and then
I clicked on his post. It's like it's Mike Pence's
comm director every single time. Am I the only person
that's noticing this?
Speaker 1 (06:03):
No?
Speaker 5 (06:04):
And in fact, it gets worse than that because it's
also a total anti Trump libs as well. I mean,
they've got leftists that they're retweeting because those are the
only people who want John Cornyn to continue to be
a part of the swamp and the deep state. It's
absolutely insane. That's the only kind of, you know, traction
that they can garner from people specifically who are not
(06:25):
in Texas. I personally love Kenny. The people who are
posting about, you know, Cornyn in a positive light, and
they're like from New York or California or even though
one this morning from shockingly Florida, and I'm like, okay, guys,
if you'd like John Cornyn to move to your state
and run as a Republican in your state, You're more
than welcome to do that. But we're here in Texas
(06:45):
and we play by a different set of rules, and
our standards are a little bit higher than what John
Cornyn has been giving.
Speaker 2 (06:50):
Us all right past had set on Fryna, he would
make an offer he would step aside from the Senate
race if the Senate leadership finally kills the filibuster and
passes the Save Act. I have mixed feelings about getting
rid of the filibuster. I know that's the popular conservative
position right now, but the Save Act is a no
brainer to me. I want this requiring proof of citizenship
(07:11):
to vote. That should not be controversial. Even Jimmy Carter
was in favor of this back in the day. The
thing that worries me is theoretically Paxton steps aside and
then they don't pass it. Obviously, you know it's the
old SWITCHERU. What are your thoughts on that?
Speaker 5 (07:26):
Yeah, I mean I would agree it would be very
dangerous for Paxston to do that without the Save Act actually,
you know, getting passed and then voted on and then
of course signed into law. But I mean I think
that if I know Ken Paxson the way that I
think I do. He is such a fighter for the
state of Texas, the only one at times seemingly in office,
(07:46):
that is willing to go to the math for the
state of Texas. If I know him like I think
I do, I don't think that he would let that happen.
I know that he's a fighter, and quite honestly, I really, really,
how should I say it, I really resent the fact
that we are even having this conversation, that there is
even a you know, a deal, a negotiation to be made.
(08:07):
How discussing Kenny, that we have a Republican president and
supposedly Republican leadership in the Senate, and we are having
to negotiate on passing a law that eighty percent of
all Americans support, which is, of course, you have to
prove who you say you are before you vote. Eighty
percent of Americans agree on this, seventy three percent of
Democrats agree on this, and we still have to negotiate
(08:30):
with the Senate majority leader who claims to be a
Republican in order to get this act passed. I mean,
I want the American people to really recognize what a
betrayal it is that we are even having this conversation
that we are even talking about negotiating with Republicans to
keep a Republican rhino in the Senate.
Speaker 4 (08:48):
But here's the thing.
Speaker 5 (08:49):
I don't think that John Soon has any intention of
passing this bill. If he did, he would have done
it already. So I enjoy this. I think Ken Paxson
is calling their bluff. Don't think they're going to do it.
And then of course he's free to run and say, hey,
you know what, maybe this vote should be a referendum
on the Save Act. Maybe Texans should go and post
(09:09):
their vote at the ballot box and tell Texans and
the rest of the country whether or not we intend
to get the Save Act passed.
Speaker 4 (09:17):
And I think it's really smart.
Speaker 5 (09:18):
I think it's pretty brilliant of their camp to decide
to go out and do It's a risk, but I
think that it's a smart one.
Speaker 2 (09:23):
Trump is in the sticky predicament here because if he
endorses corn In, obviously it upsets the grassroots in Texas.
If he endorses Paxton, obviously they're not going to pass
the Save Act. But isn't it so, I mean, you
just made this point. It's so abundantly transparent. Tim Scott,
that little homo John Thune. These guys don't care about us.
They don't care. They're taking Texas, in the whole country
(09:45):
hostage right now. I do wonder where this goes from here,
because we spend all this money. I mean, the Republican
leadership spent what one hundred million dollars trying to win
a primary in one of the in the biggest red
state in America. Those are all resource is Sarah that
we were supposed to use in Georgia and Michigan in
the general election if they remove Trump from office. I mean,
(10:06):
I'll remember, you'll remember. But well, most people see, we
lost the House, we lost the Senate because of John Cornyn.
I mean, it hasn't happened yet, God forbid, but it could.
Speaker 4 (10:16):
Of course it could.
Speaker 2 (10:17):
Of course it could.
Speaker 5 (10:18):
And then you see all of these videos that are
being dug up and passed around, which I mean, God
bless everyone who's digging up these old videos of John
Corny and just to prove how anti Trump he is.
I mean, he supported the impeachment, he supported Christine Bloggy
Ford against you know, Brett Havanaugh. I mean, he has
a history of I'll say, see blocking president Trump got
his every turn. And so the idea that like we
(10:42):
would just say, oh okay, John Cornyn all of a sudden,
he's gonna he's really gonna fall in line with President
Trump's agenda once he gets elected or once he you know,
gets through the runoff, it's just I mean, it's asinine,
just past what do they say the best predictor of
future behavior is past behavior.
Speaker 4 (10:58):
We see what.
Speaker 5 (10:59):
John Corny has done, We see how he has felt
about President Trump. He doesn't even want President Trump to
be in office right now. So the idea that we
would just trust that, oh yeah, John corn is going
to go along and get along and you know everything's
going to be fine is just preposterous. I mean, we're
in real trouble if we don't get someone in there
who even passed these elections, can really you know, keep
(11:21):
this conservative agenda strong, because you're right, as soon as
the Democrats get in there, it's going to be the
same song and dance from them. We're going to be
talking about impeachment. Nothing's going to get done. And all
of the great work that President Trump has done and
caught I'm sorry, President Trump has done and signed as
executive orders still needs to be caudified, and none of
that is going to be codified if that happens. So
it really is we're't dangerous territory at this point.
Speaker 2 (11:43):
You kind of predicted this whole thing back in twenty
twenty two, which seems like a long time ago, but
you were one of the first to point out Paxton
should take on Cornn. You've been spot on calling out
the risks of Trump endorsing Cornyn alienating the base this
but this primary season hasn't been all bad news news,
or at least if he news. We got rid of Crenshaw,
we got rid of Tony Gonzalez, that monster predator, freak creep,
(12:07):
Jasmine Crockett. And isn't that amazing to think Gonzales, Crockett,
and Crenshaw are all irrelevant in Texas politics now? I mean,
it's not all bad news.
Speaker 5 (12:16):
Yeah, you're right, you're going glass half full today and
I like it. You're right Tony Gonzalez obviously. And by
the way, Tony Gonzalez, not only is he a total creep,
a total sexual predator, he also is just like he's
not a conservative, he's a total rhino. This has been
you know, a long time coming for him. He barely
hung on last primary against Brandon Herrera, so I was
really glad to see Brandon Herrera, you know. I mean,
(12:38):
he got the most votes and now Tony's dropped out,
so essentially Brandon Herrera has already kind of clinched that,
you know, for the candidacy. But I mean, aside from that,
Jasmin Crockett, good riddance, go back to Missouri where you're from,
you know. And then Dan Crenshaw another one, longtime coming.
I'm so happy for that for that district. I am
so happy for them. Did you see I think I
(13:00):
think you might have commented on it.
Speaker 4 (13:01):
I shared it.
Speaker 5 (13:02):
Steve's host. He posted the video of him through the
night of you know, election night, and you know, he's
like receiving the news that he was winning, and then
he received the news that he won, and then he
got a call from the White House and you could
just see the look on his face. This is a
man who just genuinely wants to serve his district. This
is a man who just genuinely wants to push forth
(13:23):
conservative you know, legislation and help the people of his district.
And it was really represented and reflected in his face
and his tone. I think he really seemed taken aback
that he actually won against the machine, against the establishment,
and it was really really refreshing to see. And I
was just so happy for the people in that district
to get real, true conservative representation. And you know what, Hey,
(13:46):
Dan Crenshaw, he can take his millions that he's made
off of all the insider trading and he can go,
you know, go live his life in the private sector.
Speaker 4 (13:53):
But I'm so glad that.
Speaker 5 (13:55):
People Texans made it clear that that type of behavior
is not welcome here in the state anymore. We're just
not tolerating it. We're onto the rhinos, we're onto the swamp,
and we just don't have the time or the energy
for it.
Speaker 2 (14:05):
Man, You're so right about that. I witnessed back in January.
Paxton and I were the featured guest at the Trump
Reagan Montgomery County dinner. He was the keynote speaker, I
was the host, and Wesley Hunt was there. Paxton and
Wesley were very friendly with each other. But the thing
from that night I find to be the most remarkable.
Women from the local school board gave Toth an award
and Crenshaw's people were mad about it, like they felt like, oh,
(14:28):
you're making us like he got this award because he
shows up to school board meetings and defends the parents.
He's concerned about local issues. Crenshaw, You're never here. I
don't know. It's like he was surprised or something that
he lost, you know.
Speaker 5 (14:41):
Yeah, yeah, Dan Crenshaw. He's too busy in his office.
I'm not even kidding. If your viewers think I'm kidding,
I'm not. He's too busy in his office DJing to
himself with empty bottles of alcohol, you know, strewn about
his office. This is a true story. That video exists.
He's like, I don't know, he's a wanna be DJ.
I guess so he didn't time for his actual constituents.
(15:02):
It's really sad to see. Hey, you mentioned Wesley Hunt.
He's your front, right, I mean, we.
Speaker 2 (15:07):
We're very friendly. Yeah, good, good acquaintance.
Speaker 5 (15:10):
Tell him you've got to tell him to endorse. You
got to tell him to endorse Paxton.
Speaker 2 (15:15):
It's my understanding he was prepared to do it. And
then on Friday, this thing about Paxton offering to step
down over the Save Act. It's complicated, is what I'm told,
but that Wesley is offering his support to Paxton is
What've been told. But I don't know. I don't know
what's happening behind the scenes. I will tell you what
I am excited about. Friday, June twelfth, Me, Alex Stein
Jesse Payton are hosting the Right Side of count Are

Speaker 5 (16:14):
Thank you, my friend.
Speaker 2 (16:16):
Talk soon, ladies and gentlemen in pursuit of happiness, Radio You.
Speaker 4 (16:22):
And now two to the sound.
Speaker 2 (16:26):
According to a new survey, nearly one third of gen
Z men, the young men in their twenties, believe a
wife should always obey her husband. The other two thirds
were unable to answer the question because their wives have
a boyfriend. Hi, everybody, welcome back from break. Great being
here with you guys. Tony Ortiz coming up in a
little bit. Stick around for that. But before we get
(16:48):
to any of that. You know, like I said before,
I'm not a big fan of war. I'm a millennial.
What do you want from me? You know, Iraq, Afghanistan,
this stuff went on for needlessly long. It was depressing
and expensive and cause Lee and Luqueric on us. With
all that being said, we don't have a choice about
this war with Iran. It's happening right now and hopefully
it ends soon. But one thing is for sure. We
(17:08):
all know this is having an interesting effect on the
cost of energy in this country, and as Houstonians, that's
very important. It's important to understand it. My guest right
now is a fearless voice who's been taking on the
eco left, Hollywood elites, billionaire activists for years the brilliant
mind behind Power the Future. He has dedicated his career
to defending the hard working Americans and our energy hertlands
(17:31):
who keep the lights on in the country. Running a
master communicator with deep experience in Washington and beyond, He's
not just talking about the energy and dependence that which
we clearly need. He's delivering results and truth. Let's give
a very warm welcome to mister Daniel Turner to the show.
How you doing, brother?
Speaker 4 (17:47):
Okay, that was a very kind introduction. You know, what
does our friendship?
Speaker 2 (17:52):
I try that. I try to be I try to
be kind if nothing else. Right now, we have that
except when I'm not. Right now, we have the ongoing conflict,
the twenty twenty six Iran War. We're calling it Operation
Epic Theory. I think that's a cool name. Israel wants
to call it Operation Roaring Lion. Look, I think that's
a little soft. It almost its kind of sounds a
little Lindsey Graham to me, a little light in the wrist,
(18:14):
a little uh like the kind of guy that wears Capri's. Obviously,
Operation Epic Theory is a better name, right.
Speaker 4 (18:20):
Yes, Roaring Lion makes me think of like that kind
of like like queer guy who wears a catsuit for
colloween and goes around going like, are so yeah, I
like wearing lion that's like little cat ear a little tail.
I don't. I don't like that. I like Epic Fury.
Speaker 2 (18:36):
Yeah. I like Operation Kill the Bad Guys even more.
Operation Kill the Bad Guys is a cool name. Have
you seen that? When they make fun of Pete hag
sets on Saturday Night Live, they make them seem so cool,
Like do they not know that?
Speaker 3 (18:51):
Like?
Speaker 2 (18:51):
I really like their version of Pete Haggseth seems almost
cooler than the real Pete hag Seth. I don't know
if that's what they're trying to do, but that's how
I feel about it.
Speaker 4 (19:01):
The Left hates Pete haig Seth When I watch him testify,
and those Democrat Senate senators, the women senators tear into him. Secretly,
they are tearing into him because they lust for Pete
haig Seth in ways that their loins cannot contain. Pete
haig Seth is without sounding too homosexual, Pete Haigseth is
(19:22):
like every American dude's like I want to be his
friend or I kind of wish I could be him.
I want his hair, I want his bravado, I want
the I want his medals. Right, So they hate Pete
haig Seth because guys like Pete haig Seth never winked
at them, right, Like guys like Pete haig Seth didn't,
you know, hang out with Elizabeth Warren. So that's why
she hates him. It has nothing to do with his
(19:44):
beliefs or his It has to do with the fact
that he is Pete. Pete is everything you want in
a secretary of war. Proof of that is the enrollment numbers.
And I think enrollment numbers will go up even during
an Operation Epic Fury, because there are a lot of
seventeen and eighteen year old bros who are lost. Sadly,
(20:05):
some of them have turned to a holes like Nick
Fuintes and Tucker Carlson. Sadly, some of them have turned
to lost voices and have been screwed up. But a
lot of them look at Pete and are like, I
kind of want to be like that. And that is
why people are adjoining the military left and right. Because
Pete is attractive in the classic sense, and people want
(20:27):
to emulate that.
Speaker 2 (20:28):
You were once a very big fan of, or at
least a supporter someone that of Tucker Carlson. The general
sentiment about him has changed a lot, hasn't it.
Speaker 4 (20:38):
I just don't understand where people lose their perspective that much.
And I know fame can do that to people. It
doesn't new to everybody. I've been coming on your show
for eight years now. You've just grown and grown and grown,
and you're the exact same guy I met eight years ago.
I think that's a testament to who you are. I
(20:58):
don't know when you go off the rail, but you know,
he's just one of a many chorus the view. When
it started twenty years ago, people like my mom used
to watch it because it was a bunch of women,
loud and funny and talking. What happened to them? Right?
What happens to people when you get a platform that
you start becoming insane or.
Speaker 6 (21:21):
You know what.
Speaker 4 (21:22):
We see this in every industry. You become too big
for your breeches. I'll never understand it. The same Donald
Trump is the same. Donald Trump is the same Donald Trump.
You can hate the guy and there's a lot to
discuss about him, or his policies or his beliefs. But
there is no element of surprise in Donald Trump. He
told you exactly what is going to do. He joked,
(21:43):
what you saw that viral video, I'm gonna bomb the
s out of them, like he and everyone applauded at
one of his rallies. He never hid his agenda and
people have voted for it. So I love that about
the guy. You knew exactly what you were getting.
Speaker 2 (21:59):
That famous saying from the Dark Knight you either die
a hero or you live long enough to see yourself
become the villain. I prefer this. You either die the
jester or you live long enough to see yourself become
the punchline.
Speaker 4 (22:11):
Yeah, absolutely absolutely. And you know it's a brutal industry,
you know, the world of ideas. It tears people down
and it gets people like Charlie Kirk shot. But but
you know Charlie died the same way he lived as well.
And these are some big, grandiose principles, you know. I
(22:31):
was I was just on a Cincinnati radio show and
we were talking about oil prices, and I reminded the
Ohio audience that their former senator Shared Brown wants his
job backs. He's running. He lost in twenty twenty four.
He wants his featback. So now he's running again, and
we talk about oil prices, We talk about where was
Sharred Brown when Joe Biden depleted the Strategic Petroleum Reserve?
(22:54):
Where was he when Joe Biden and Ohio as a
huge oil and gas state. Not quite as big as Texas,
of course, course, but nothing is, but Ohio is a
huge oil Where was Sherid Brown, your senator when all
of this was happening? And now he wants his job
back for what? For who? For himself? Because he's bored,
He wants he wants a paycheck, he wants a platform.
Where was he when Ohio needed someone to fight for them?
(23:17):
I guess a lot of people are asking the same
thing about your Texas senator as well. You don't earn
your moxie in times of crisis. You earn your moxie
I think in the day to day grind of doing
the right thing when it's unpopular. When you know when,
when when when you get attacked for it, that's when
you become a hero.
Speaker 2 (23:38):
Yeah, it's true. Cornyn is an absolute garbage example of
a senator. Right now, they're not going to pass the
Save Act unless we endorse Corny, Like, give me a break, dude,
is can they be any more transparent with a bunch
of garbage human beings? These are look, I think we
should keep the filibuster. Frankly, I'm you know, I fear
how quickly government will grow and how bigly big it'll
(23:59):
expand if they get rid of the filibuster. But that's
besides the point. Now they're all talking about how they've
always been against the filibuster. No, they haven't.
Speaker 4 (24:08):
No, And this isn't really even getting rid of the filibuster.
This is making people filibuster. This is the thing. The
only reason why we need this magical sixty votes is
because the Senate procedure says that if you get sixty,
we don't have to do all the hours and hours
of debate, and we'll just get there quicker. If you
only have fifty one votes, you have to do the
hours and hours of debate. So all Republicans are saying, debate,
(24:30):
this is what you guys do for a living. You're
going to have to sit on the Senate floor. It's
going to take five or six days. But they don't
want to do that. They have fundraisers to go to, right,
they have Fox News to go on, they have glamorous
things that maybe they'll say, I want to see my
kids baseball game. I get it, buddy, I want to
see my kids baseball game too. But you signed up
to be a senator, and this is the bad part
(24:52):
of the job. You get the good stuff, you get
the book deals, you get the insider trading tips, right,
but the bad part is every now and then you
have to sit on the damn Senate floor for five
days in a row and listen to to you know,
Patty Murray from Washington State, roll on and on for
forty five minutes Corey Booker and make him wet his
(25:13):
pants again wearing a diaper, demanding that he's you know
what did he what do you call himself? Spartacus. That's
the bad part of being a senator. And if you
don't want, and I'm going to start screaming, Kenny, if
you don't want that part, don't run for the damn job.
And that's all we're asking of our senators. Do the
damn hard work, because the American people are doing the
(25:35):
hard work. There is a nineteen year old kid right
now who is throwing chains on a platform in the
Permian basin listening to us. It is hot, he is tired,
he is sweaty.
Speaker 2 (25:44):
He is doing his damn job.
Speaker 4 (25:46):
There's a cop on the beat risking his life because
there's Antifa and Muslim terrorists everywhere. He's doing his damn job.
Do your flippin' job. That's all we're.
Speaker 2 (25:57):
Asking, Daniel Turner, Power the Few Future. Look, I'm not
a big fan of this war. I think most people aren't.
But one thing is for sure. Controlling the global oil
markets at least keeping Iran and Venezuela out of it
probably is going to contribute to world peace. Will this
be America first in the end, if you trust Donald Trump,
hopefully it will be. Hopefully this war doesn't go on forever. Daniel.
(26:18):
I hope you'll come back soon and give us another
update on your thoughts so far.
Speaker 4 (26:21):
Sorry, I got so angry, camp, but I love being
on with your brothers. Thank you.
Speaker 2 (26:25):
Always Welcome here, Daniel Turner, Power the Future. If you
work in oil and gas, give him a follow on
social media. You owe it to yourself. Chus what it is?
Speaker 4 (26:32):
A star cousin right here, tar seeds, it's.
Speaker 6 (26:36):
Ha work to host the show with a couple of
knucklehears ken Western Gitia.
Speaker 2 (26:41):
So if the whole system hiccups, your stocks are not
going to save you. Gold and silver absolutely they're the
hero swooping in with capes made of shiny metal. Banks
and billionaires already know what I'm talking about. The ultimate
hedge is investing in rare minerals. Silver is not just
pretty anymore. It's the industrial powerhouse everyone needs for things
(27:02):
like solar and EVS and AI and defense. And there's
a big demand for it. So you can call Lear
Capital right now today for your free gold and silver
investment kit and score up to twenty thousand dollars in
bonus coins with a qualified purchase. That's real metal in
your hands, folks. Call him today eight hundred three six
four ninety two hundred. That's eight hundred three six four
(27:23):
nine two zero zero. Don't wait for the crash. Call
lear Capital today at eight hundred three six four nine
two zero zero for that shiny protection. But don't just
take my word for it, take the word of Rush Limbaugh.
He supported Lear Capital for a long time, and there's
a reason, all right, kids, So by now you've probably
heard the US economy has lost ninety two thousand jobs.
(27:45):
You've gone from USFA to JC of Penny. My friends,
it's not good out there right now. It is not good.
But we do have some good news. We've got a
guy here right now, and he loves Japanese girls. Please,
welcome to the show. The founder and publisher of Current Revolt,
the go to source for unfiltered Texas political news. He's
(28:07):
earned the nickname. It's earned the nickname the Texas newspaper
of record, called the best reporter in Texas by some
other often called the most hated reporter in Texas. Tony's
built a powerhouse platform over the past five years, breaking stories,
holding power accountable, and being uninvited to cocktail parties. Welcome
to the show, Tony Ortiz of Current Revolt. What's up, Tony?
Speaker 4 (28:28):
What is up?
Speaker 2 (28:29):
Good morning, Tony. You and I are not well liked
at cocktail parties. Why is that?
Speaker 6 (28:36):
Well, because we tell the truth and people don't like that,
and we're and also like, we're not afraid to call
people out for bad behavior.
Speaker 2 (28:42):
I always try to explain to people that, you know,
there's the Texas Tribune and there's the Houston chronicle. But
all those people read Current Revolt partly because they want
to figure out who their bosses and co workers are
cheating on them with.
Speaker 4 (28:56):
That may be one of the reasons.
Speaker 2 (28:57):
Yes, that may be one of the reasons. Why did
you start Current Revolt. You had a good paying job
in corporate America. You people didn't hate you or want
to care. You didn't have to do this for a living.
Why did you quit and start doing this?
Speaker 6 (29:09):
Well, there's a there was a vacuum for that news,
right there was, There was not there was. I found
so often that there was a lot of stories out
there that media outlets, mainstream or otherwise.
Speaker 4 (29:20):
Were refusing to publish.
Speaker 6 (29:21):
They didn't want to get into it, or they didn't
want to talk about it. And you know, somebody has
to talk about the trash that's going on in politics,
and so yeah, I'll be the trash guy.
Speaker 4 (29:29):
That's fine with me.
Speaker 2 (29:30):
You do a thing on your website called Monitoring the Situation.
It's a series that seems to spotlight under the radar
controversial stories stuff the mainstream new zoom news outlets tend
to skip before we dive into the latest issue of it.
What's your criteria to make the cut for that.
Speaker 6 (29:47):
Well, it's just kind of usually like you know, like
under the table stuff or just really like you know,
like insider information that maybe maybe the general public doesn't know,
because our general public doesn't know who the Republican Party
of Texas chairman is, as you know. So this is
just kind of stuff that's just really interesting, but maybe
not enough for an entire story, but enough for a
quick mention in a brief, you know.
Speaker 2 (30:09):
All right. So people always wonder why I don't like
Doc Pete Chambers, as if I haven't explained it enough.
He moved to Texas to an RV park, voted in
one election, bought a cowboy hat, endorsed a woman who
told people they should violently attack me if they see
me in the streets because I and you asked questions
about her weird carpetbagging candidacy. Then one of his supporters
posted my home address online and blocked me. But other
(30:31):
than that, how is the movie Missus Lincoln? The play?
I botched the joke? Other than that, how is the
play Missus Lincoln? Doc Pete Chambers claims he actually won
the Texas Governor's race, despite the official results. The guy
he barely got double digit He barely squeezed into eleven percent.
His opponent got eighty five percent. Why would anyone think
(30:52):
that he won the election.
Speaker 6 (30:54):
Well, when you drink enough of the kool aid, you
start to believe it actually has special powers.
Speaker 4 (30:59):
You know. This is the This is the case with Chambers.
Speaker 6 (31:01):
Chambers, as you said, performed actually surprisingly well considering like
you know what everybody thought he was going to get.
You know, I personally thought he was going to get
five percent. But yeah, he's now claiming in video that
he actually took the election and that he won. And
he says he's not going to waste his time or
his supporter's money paying nine hundred thousand dollars for a recount, which,
(31:24):
by the way, if you've lost by double digits, you
cannot request a recount.
Speaker 4 (31:30):
So he doesn't.
Speaker 6 (31:31):
He doesn't know that, which is not surprising because he's
a goofball. But yeah, a lot of people are are
kind of laughing at this guy. Even his strongest supporters
of are now jumping the ship because they're like, okay, okay,
this guy's drifting.
Speaker 2 (31:43):
Okay. So with that in mind, you raised an interesting
point there. How did a guy with no budget, nothing
but a small amount of cloud On acts get eleven
percent of the vote. It's actually quite impressive if you
think about it. I have a theory. My theory is
that he was basically picking backing off of a sling
shotting off of the port, the the outrage over Abbott
from four years ago, and the grassroots that was basically
(32:05):
built up by an Alan West or a Don Haffines
or a Chad Prayther who all collectively still couldn't beat
Abbot even though they spent millions of dollars that left
enough disenfranchised voters out there. But I didn't hear him
praise any of them. I didn't hear I didn't see
any of them endorse him. Nor did did I see
him suggest that they were great patriots who tried to
(32:26):
fight the establishment. That's kind of an underrated story, isn't it.
Speaker 4 (32:31):
Yeah.
Speaker 6 (32:31):
I think I think Alan West kind of gave a
half budded endorsement of of Chambers. I think I think
I think that was the case because Chambers announced it
on his platform, But Alan West himself never came out
publicly and endorsed him. You know, But yeah, you know,
you had was a Huffines, Prather, and and and West
(32:54):
spend collectively like twenty five million dollars trying to pry
marry Greg Abbit and they still lost. In fact, they
couldn't even trigger a run off of twenty five million dollars.
Speaker 4 (33:06):
And then you've got this guy.
Speaker 6 (33:07):
I think he spent collectively like one hundred thousand dollars
and he got eleven percent. So again, not bad. People
have justifiable concerns and complaints for Governor Greg Abbott, but
two things could be true.
Speaker 4 (33:17):
At the same time.
Speaker 6 (33:18):
Greg Abbot needs to do better and he's not, you know,
performing the best is I think people wanted to perform.
Speaker 4 (33:23):
And also Doc P. Chambers as a joke.
Speaker 2 (33:26):
Yeah, no kidding, he's a complete joke. But apparently in
addition to raising almost thirty thousand dollars, he had an
alarmingly high amount of Beaver bucks donated to him. Those
gift cards you can use it BUCkies that could be
used for gas and snacks, and you know, you just
can't put a price on that.
Speaker 6 (33:42):
Tony's about the only Beavers that were donating to enduring campaign.
Speaker 2 (33:48):
You know, you can get away from that on this
radio show, and you can't get on o An on CHAOSV.
You can't make that joke anywhere else but here it
is completely okay. What do you think happened at the
back of that RV with some of those middle aged
ladies A fifty five year old grandma's he brought back there, Tony, just.
Speaker 6 (34:08):
All some Texan stuff, man, Nothing, nothing crazy, you know,
it's all very very very very proper, very normal campaign.
Speaker 2 (34:14):
By the way, isn't it amazing? You and I have
given more airtime to the candidacy of Doc Pete Chambers
than any other news outlet in the state. He didn't
send us a gift basket. I didn't get any beaver bocks.
I got nothing from the guy.
Speaker 6 (34:28):
Yeah, I mean we should be listed on the TEC
report as an in kind in kind donation.
Speaker 4 (34:33):
All right, all the all the publicity, all right. You.
Speaker 2 (34:36):
I love monitoring the situation. It's one of my favorite
things that you do on your website. There's a story
today about there is another candidate entering the race for
the Republican Party chair trying to take on Abraham George.
And this guy is very big and very black. His
name is Pastor Troy Jackson. What do we know about him?
Speaker 6 (34:55):
Yeah, big black candidate. He is running for the chairman
ship for RPT right. So the Republican Republican Party of
Texas holds an election every two years and basically the
precinct chairs and the delegates get to decide on who's
going to be the new chairman of the Republican Party.
Currently it is Abraham George, who is an Indian born
(35:19):
guy who came to America and he's got a citizenship
and he's running the Texas Republican Party. And now this
the gentleman Troy Jackson has announced his run. Funny enough
in his announcement message, he has a pretty pretty obvious
spelling air but him he's running and is another woman
named Deranda Deranda Randall who's also running against Abraham George.
Speaker 2 (35:43):
I want to support some of these grassroots people. Sometimes
they just make it so hard. You posted this thing earlier,
it was Texans for Vaccine Choice. I probably believe in
everything that they believe in, and yet they posted a
press release. Here they're announced the Department sure a political
director Michelle Evans, and the and then the the press release.
(36:05):
It doesn't there are no spaces in it. It's just
one sheet. It's all it's well, it's it's a lot
of words and there's no space between any of the words.
How does this get published without someone noticing it?
Speaker 4 (36:18):
I have no idea.
Speaker 6 (36:19):
I looked at it and I was like, oh boy,
I thought I got an sweep this morning.
Speaker 4 (36:23):
But yeah, there's a it was. We posted it on
our Twitter.
Speaker 6 (36:26):
It's it's just got a whole bunch of runout messages
and no spaces. But you know, these accidents happen. I
do get it. And TFBC is a phenomenal organization. Texans
or Vaccine Choice the phenomenal organization. But it was just
it definitely, it was definitely funny, all right.
Speaker 2 (36:41):
I just want to say, Tony is the reason we're
organizing a comedy show Friday, June twelfth at the Texas
State Republican Party Convention. It's at ours is going to
be at the House of Blues one block away. It's
a couple of blocks, so it's a short walk, you know,
relatively nice part of downtown. I gotta think we're gonna
We've already sold dozens of tickets. Tony Ortiz had the
idea for me and Jesse Payn and Alex Steying to
(37:03):
throw this show, So he's the reason we're doing it.
I don't know how this happened, but we organized our
event faster than they organized theirs, which is amazing because
I am an FOP tony. But they finally updated their
website with the convention dates, and I got to think
at least part of the reason why is because you
were tweeting about how there was nothing on their website
about the convention.
Speaker 6 (37:22):
Oh, it's going to be and by the way, your
event's going to sell out. So if you're listening to this,
you need to buy tickets for this thing as soon
as possible because come three days towards close to the
actual convention time, it's going to.
Speaker 4 (37:33):
Be sold out.
Speaker 6 (37:34):
Sure, but yeah, the RPT convention or the RPT finally
updated their website to have information on the convention that's
going on. For blisteners that don't know, the Texas Republican
Party Convention that happens every two years is the largest
Republican convention in the world, believe it or not, and
this is going to be such a screw up because
(37:54):
of the logistics they are hosting this convention, which again
is the largest in the world for Republican conventions the
same weekend as the World Cup in Houston. It's going
to be a total disaster and hotels are already overpriced,
restaurants are going to be completely full. It's going to
be a total mess. But you know, that's kind of
what you get with the leadership that's running this thing.
Speaker 2 (38:15):
So I will tell you, you know, it's like pros and
cons to everything. I like Rinaldi, I don't dislike Abraham George,
but I remember a time when this party was ran
by a guy who just wanted to be governor.
Speaker 4 (38:28):
Yeah.
Speaker 6 (38:28):
Yeah, Alan West was a total disaster. Alan West and
the consequences from his race have been a disaster for
the state. And you know now he's running the Republican
the Dallas County Republican Party, and it's not doing much
better under his leadership.
Speaker 2 (38:41):
They do not like you. Why is that?
Speaker 4 (38:43):
Well, because they tell the truth.
Speaker 6 (38:44):
You know, a lot of these politicians they want people
that are constantly, you know, kissing their butt and telling.
Speaker 4 (38:50):
Them nice, good things about them.
Speaker 6 (38:51):
And if they want that, there's plenty of rags out
there and plenty of Republican activists that are willing to
do that.
Speaker 2 (38:57):
But I'm not.
Speaker 4 (38:58):
I'm a Republican but not willing to kiss their butt.
Speaker 2 (39:01):
Tony, how much would it cost for you? How much
would it cost for me to write a flattering for
you to write a flattering article about me on your website?
How many? How many beaver buck gift cards do I mean?
Speaker 6 (39:10):
It's one beaver buck, one beaver and a Portillo sandwich.
Speaker 2 (39:14):
You deal absolutely, Tony Ortiz curveroll dot com is the
website hit it up today? Liberals Republicans hate it. Liberals
hate it even more. But as a voter, I think
a taxpayer, you're gonna appreciate the information you find. To
the rest of you, I love you all. Don't forget
to get your tickets to our Right Side of Comedy
June twelfth at the House of Blues. Buy them now
before they sell out or we get canceled. Both of
(39:36):
those are equally possible. And to the rest of you,
I love you all. We'll be back bright and early
tomorrow morning for more of what you bought a radio for.
Speaker 3 (39:44):
Dude, you are listening to the Pursuit of Happiness Radio.
Tell the government to kiss your ass when you listen
to this show.

Liberty and freedom will make you smile. The a Suda

Speaker 2 (00:21):
It's National Barbie Day. Barbie's the ideal woman. Supposedly, she
has a nice house, she's got a cool car, and
she doesn't even mind that her boyfriend lacks genitals. So
there you go, everybody, Happy National Barbie Day. Uh, We're
gonna have Latina Barbie on the show today. Maybe that's
an insulting way of explaining who she is. She's a
good guest. Sarah Gonzal is one of my favorite people
(00:42):
in conservative media. Strong, bold, beautiful mom from the Dallas
Fort Worth area, host of Gonzales Unfiltered Show. Be here
with us. Stick around for that, and I believe we're
getting a visit from Daniel Turner. Is gonna be stopping
from a Power of the Future. We're gonna talk about
how this war, this war is affecting the cost of oil,
(01:02):
among other things. So stick around for that, all right,
So let's get right into this kids. The fireworks are
still popping over tran In this glorious mess called Operation
Epic Fury. It's the Iranian regime's last attempt to nurse
a grudge against Donald Trump. A Brooklyn jury back here
at home just convicted this Pakistani guy asief merchant, some
(01:26):
discount soup peddler. They say, Tyrann handpicked. Is their budget
James Bond. Yeah, the same regime that can't keep the
lights on in their country thought this clown could pull
off the triple play Whack Biden, Whack Trump, whack Nikki
Hanley like it was a buy one, get too free
special at the Hitman Discount. And so anyway, we're now
(01:47):
knee deep in Operation Epic Fury, and we're out arresting
people for trying to kill people here in America to
support the war. Look, I'm not popping champagne over this war.
I didn't wake up one morning thinking, you know what,
the world needs another never war in the mid East.
But we're involved in it. So I'd like to win
at the very least if we're in it, and brother,
we are in it the damn right. I want us
(02:08):
to win, not win like some polite participation trophy where
we bomb a few sites and declare victory and leave
the regime to rebuild their nuclear factory over brunch. I
mean win win, like the regime ends up as scattered
as confetiot a losing Super Bowl parade. Supreme leaders already
doing the eternal dirt nap, the Navy's decorating the Gulf floor.
(02:30):
The missiles are mostly quiet now good, keep going, crush
the missile production, sink what's left to their fleet. I'm
not cheering for the war. War sucks. They cost blood, treasure.
What seven American gis already dead? How many more gold
star families do we need? But half assing It's not
an option. That's how you get endless cycles of contain
(02:51):
and repeat. If the choice is between dragging this out
for decades like the last few ventures, are finishing the
job decisively so our grandkids don't inherit the same headache,
then do it right. Finish it win big, win ugly.
If you have to just win because the alternative is
in peace, it's waiting for the next plot, the next
proxy attack, the next this time, it won't miss postcard
(03:13):
from Tehran. If we're paying the price anyway, make sure
the bill gets sent to them in full, with interest
and no refunds and remember that bargain bin Pakistani hitman.
They pin their hopes. I'm back in twenty twenty four,
the one who thought he was going to take down Trump, Biden,
and Haley like a Black Friday triple homicide. Yeah, he
got convicted, locked up, and his big career move fizzled
(03:34):
harder than Iran's Navy, just like this regime's grand plan.
Dead on arrival, out of style, headed straight for the
history books. Ays what not to do when you poke America? Lesson,
stay sharp, America. We're fighting big. Hopefully we end this
war the right way. Hello, my name is Pedro.

(04:31):
bumper music for my next guest. Ladies and gentlemen. I'm
a huge fan of this person. I really am. She
is I think one of the strongest, coolest chicks in
Texas conservative media. Please welcome the fearless, unfiltered voice of
conservative commentary. She's a spicy Latina powerhouse host of Sarah

Welcome to Pursuit of Happiness Radio. It's Sarah Gonzalez.
Speaker 4 (05:07):
Wow.
Speaker 5 (05:08):
What an introduction. Thank you so much.
Speaker 2 (05:10):
Take an honor. Thank you very much. I was warming
that up all morning. I had to I had to learn.
I had to learn how to pronounce your last name.
I'm not good with the Latina vowels. I'll have to
teach you, Sarah. You and I I think around the
same wing of the Texas political you know, the Texas
Conservative movement. I've noticed there's two groups of people that
(05:30):
are real opinionated about the Paxton corn In feud. And
I've noticed every time I find someone who's not on
our side when I go to check on social media,
when I look up the person's bio. Someone goes viral
for their anti corn post or whatever, are their anti
Paxton post. It's always a person who worked in Austin,
(05:51):
who worked in Washington, d C. John Cornyn retweeted this
guy yesterday. It looked like some average guy, and then
I clicked on his post. It's like it's Mike Pence's
comm director every single time. Am I the only person
that's noticing this?
Speaker 1 (06:03):
No?
Speaker 5 (06:04):
And in fact, it gets worse than that because it's
also a total anti Trump libs as well. I mean,
they've got leftists that they're retweeting because those are the
only people who want John Cornyn to continue to be
a part of the swamp and the deep state. It's
absolutely insane. That's the only kind of, you know, traction
that they can garner from people specifically who are not
(06:25):
in Texas. I personally love Kenny. The people who are
posting about, you know, Cornyn in a positive light, and
they're like from New York or California or even though
one this morning from shockingly Florida, and I'm like, okay, guys,
if you'd like John Cornyn to move to your state
and run as a Republican in your state, You're more
than welcome to do that. But we're here in Texas
(06:45):
and we play by a different set of rules, and
our standards are a little bit higher than what John
Cornyn has been giving.
Speaker 2 (06:50):
Us all right past had set on Fryna, he would
make an offer he would step aside from the Senate
race if the Senate leadership finally kills the filibuster and
passes the Save Act. I have mixed feelings about getting
rid of the filibuster. I know that's the popular conservative
position right now, but the Save Act is a no
brainer to me. I want this requiring proof of citizenship
(07:11):
to vote. That should not be controversial. Even Jimmy Carter
was in favor of this back in the day. The
thing that worries me is theoretically Paxton steps aside and
then they don't pass it. Obviously, you know it's the
old SWITCHERU. What are your thoughts on that?
Speaker 5 (07:26):
Yeah, I mean I would agree it would be very
dangerous for Paxston to do that without the Save Act actually,
you know, getting passed and then voted on and then
of course signed into law. But I mean I think
that if I know Ken Paxson the way that I
think I do. He is such a fighter for the
state of Texas, the only one at times seemingly in office,
(07:46):
that is willing to go to the math for the
state of Texas. If I know him like I think
I do, I don't think that he would let that happen.
I know that he's a fighter, and quite honestly, I really, really,
how should I say it, I really resent the fact
that we are even having this conversation, that there is
even a you know, a deal, a negotiation to be made.
(08:07):
How discussing Kenny, that we have a Republican president and
supposedly Republican leadership in the Senate, and we are having
to negotiate on passing a law that eighty percent of
all Americans support, which is, of course, you have to
prove who you say you are before you vote. Eighty
percent of Americans agree on this, seventy three percent of
Democrats agree on this, and we still have to negotiate
(08:30):
with the Senate majority leader who claims to be a
Republican in order to get this act passed. I mean,
I want the American people to really recognize what a
betrayal it is that we are even having this conversation
that we are even talking about negotiating with Republicans to
keep a Republican rhino in the Senate.
Speaker 4 (08:48):
But here's the thing.
Speaker 5 (08:49):
I don't think that John Soon has any intention of
passing this bill. If he did, he would have done
it already. So I enjoy this. I think Ken Paxson
is calling their bluff. Don't think they're going to do it.
And then of course he's free to run and say, hey,
you know what, maybe this vote should be a referendum
on the Save Act. Maybe Texans should go and post
(09:09):
their vote at the ballot box and tell Texans and
the rest of the country whether or not we intend
to get the Save Act passed.
Speaker 4 (09:17):
And I think it's really smart.
Speaker 5 (09:18):
I think it's pretty brilliant of their camp to decide
to go out and do It's a risk, but I
think that it's a smart one.
Speaker 2 (09:23):
Trump is in the sticky predicament here because if he
endorses corn In, obviously it upsets the grassroots in Texas.
If he endorses Paxton, obviously they're not going to pass
the Save Act. But isn't it so, I mean, you
just made this point. It's so abundantly transparent. Tim Scott,
that little homo John Thune. These guys don't care about us.
They don't care. They're taking Texas, in the whole country
(09:45):
hostage right now. I do wonder where this goes from here,
because we spend all this money. I mean, the Republican
leadership spent what one hundred million dollars trying to win
a primary in one of the in the biggest red
state in America. Those are all resource is Sarah that
we were supposed to use in Georgia and Michigan in
the general election if they remove Trump from office. I mean,
(10:06):
I'll remember, you'll remember. But well, most people see, we
lost the House, we lost the Senate because of John Cornyn.
I mean, it hasn't happened yet, God forbid, but it could.
Speaker 4 (10:16):
Of course it could.
Speaker 2 (10:17):
Of course it could.
Speaker 5 (10:18):
And then you see all of these videos that are
being dug up and passed around, which I mean, God
bless everyone who's digging up these old videos of John
Corny and just to prove how anti Trump he is.
I mean, he supported the impeachment, he supported Christine Bloggy
Ford against you know, Brett Havanaugh. I mean, he has
a history of I'll say, see blocking president Trump got
his every turn. And so the idea that like we
(10:42):
would just say, oh okay, John Cornyn all of a sudden,
he's gonna he's really gonna fall in line with President
Trump's agenda once he gets elected or once he you know,
gets through the runoff, it's just I mean, it's asinine,
just past what do they say the best predictor of
future behavior is past behavior.
Speaker 4 (10:58):
We see what.
Speaker 5 (10:59):
John Corny has done, We see how he has felt
about President Trump. He doesn't even want President Trump to
be in office right now. So the idea that we
would just trust that, oh yeah, John corn is going
to go along and get along and you know everything's
going to be fine is just preposterous. I mean, we're
in real trouble if we don't get someone in there
who even passed these elections, can really you know, keep
(11:21):
this conservative agenda strong, because you're right, as soon as
the Democrats get in there, it's going to be the
same song and dance from them. We're going to be
talking about impeachment. Nothing's going to get done. And all
of the great work that President Trump has done and
caught I'm sorry, President Trump has done and signed as
executive orders still needs to be caudified, and none of
that is going to be codified if that happens. So
it really is we're't dangerous territory at this point.
Speaker 2 (11:43):
You kind of predicted this whole thing back in twenty
twenty two, which seems like a long time ago, but
you were one of the first to point out Paxton
should take on Cornn. You've been spot on calling out
the risks of Trump endorsing Cornyn alienating the base this
but this primary season hasn't been all bad news news,
or at least if he news. We got rid of Crenshaw,
we got rid of Tony Gonzalez, that monster predator, freak creep,
(12:07):
Jasmine Crockett. And isn't that amazing to think Gonzales, Crockett,
and Crenshaw are all irrelevant in Texas politics now? I mean,
it's not all bad news.
Speaker 5 (12:16):
Yeah, you're right, you're going glass half full today and
I like it. You're right Tony Gonzalez obviously. And by
the way, Tony Gonzalez, not only is he a total creep,
a total sexual predator, he also is just like he's
not a conservative, he's a total rhino. This has been
you know, a long time coming for him. He barely
hung on last primary against Brandon Herrera, so I was
really glad to see Brandon Herrera, you know. I mean,
(12:38):
he got the most votes and now Tony's dropped out,
so essentially Brandon Herrera has already kind of clinched that,
you know, for the candidacy. But I mean, aside from that,
Jasmin Crockett, good riddance, go back to Missouri where you're from,
you know. And then Dan Crenshaw another one, longtime coming.
I'm so happy for that for that district. I am
so happy for them. Did you see I think I
(13:00):
think you might have commented on it.
Speaker 4 (13:01):
I shared it.
Speaker 5 (13:02):
Steve's host. He posted the video of him through the
night of you know, election night, and you know, he's
like receiving the news that he was winning, and then
he received the news that he won, and then he
got a call from the White House and you could
just see the look on his face. This is a
man who just genuinely wants to serve his district. This
is a man who just genuinely wants to push forth
(13:23):
conservative you know, legislation and help the people of his district.
And it was really represented and reflected in his face
and his tone. I think he really seemed taken aback
that he actually won against the machine, against the establishment,
and it was really really refreshing to see. And I
was just so happy for the people in that district
to get real, true conservative representation. And you know what, Hey,
(13:46):
Dan Crenshaw, he can take his millions that he's made
off of all the insider trading and he can go,
you know, go live his life in the private sector.
Speaker 4 (13:53):
But I'm so glad that.
Speaker 5 (13:55):
People Texans made it clear that that type of behavior
is not welcome here in the state anymore. We're just
not tolerating it. We're onto the rhinos, we're onto the swamp,
and we just don't have the time or the energy
for it.
Speaker 2 (14:05):
Man, You're so right about that. I witnessed back in January.
Paxton and I were the featured guest at the Trump
Reagan Montgomery County dinner. He was the keynote speaker, I
was the host, and Wesley Hunt was there. Paxton and
Wesley were very friendly with each other. But the thing
from that night I find to be the most remarkable.
Women from the local school board gave Toth an award
and Crenshaw's people were mad about it, like they felt like, oh,
(14:28):
you're making us like he got this award because he
shows up to school board meetings and defends the parents.
He's concerned about local issues. Crenshaw, You're never here. I
don't know. It's like he was surprised or something that
he lost, you know.
Speaker 5 (14:41):
Yeah, yeah, Dan Crenshaw. He's too busy in his office.
I'm not even kidding. If your viewers think I'm kidding,
I'm not. He's too busy in his office DJing to
himself with empty bottles of alcohol, you know, strewn about
his office. This is a true story. That video exists.
He's like, I don't know, he's a wanna be DJ.
I guess so he didn't time for his actual constituents.
(15:02):
It's really sad to see. Hey, you mentioned Wesley Hunt.
He's your front, right, I mean, we.
Speaker 2 (15:07):
We're very friendly. Yeah, good, good acquaintance.
Speaker 5 (15:10):
Tell him you've got to tell him to endorse. You
got to tell him to endorse Paxton.
Speaker 2 (15:15):
It's my understanding he was prepared to do it. And
then on Friday, this thing about Paxton offering to step
down over the Save Act. It's complicated, is what I'm told,
but that Wesley is offering his support to Paxton is
What've been told. But I don't know. I don't know
what's happening behind the scenes. I will tell you what
I am excited about. Friday, June twelfth, Me, Alex Stein
Jesse Payton are hosting the Right Side of count Are
(15:37):
you going to the convention. We have a seat for
you at this comedy show. If you want to go, well,
now I have to will. We are going to see this.

Speaker 4 (15:50):
Sarah.
Speaker 5 (15:52):
Okay, I'll have to get I'll have to prepare a.
Speaker 6 (15:55):
Set for you.
Speaker 2 (15:55):
Guys, guys, you have got If you are not watching
Sarah Gonzalez on Blake, Sarah Gonzalez Unfield, He's one of
my favorite shows. Come and take it with Texas Scorecard.
Sarah is the most based right wing, red pilled conservative
woman doing conservative media in the state. She's a good friend. Sarah.
I thank you so much for your time this afternoon.
Speaker 5 (16:14):
Thank you, my friend.
Speaker 2 (16:16):
Talk soon, ladies and gentlemen in pursuit of happiness, Radio You.
Speaker 4 (16:22):
And now two to the sound.
Speaker 2 (16:26):
According to a new survey, nearly one third of gen
Z men, the young men in their twenties, believe a
wife should always obey her husband. The other two thirds
were unable to answer the question because their wives have
a boyfriend. Hi, everybody, welcome back from break. Great being
here with you guys. Tony Ortiz coming up in a
little bit. Stick around for that. But before we get
(16:48):
to any of that. You know, like I said before,
I'm not a big fan of war. I'm a millennial.
What do you want from me? You know, Iraq, Afghanistan,
this stuff went on for needlessly long. It was depressing
and expensive and cause Lee and Luqueric on us. With
all that being said, we don't have a choice about
this war with Iran. It's happening right now and hopefully
it ends soon. But one thing is for sure. We
(17:08):
all know this is having an interesting effect on the
cost of energy in this country, and as Houstonians, that's
very important. It's important to understand it. My guest right
now is a fearless voice who's been taking on the
eco left, Hollywood elites, billionaire activists for years the brilliant
mind behind Power the Future. He has dedicated his career
to defending the hard working Americans and our energy hertlands
(17:31):
who keep the lights on in the country. Running a
master communicator with deep experience in Washington and beyond, He's
not just talking about the energy and dependence that which
we clearly need. He's delivering results and truth. Let's give
a very warm welcome to mister Daniel Turner to the show.
How you doing, brother?
Speaker 4 (17:47):
Okay, that was a very kind introduction. You know, what
does our friendship?
Speaker 2 (17:52):
I try that. I try to be I try to
be kind if nothing else. Right now, we have that
except when I'm not. Right now, we have the ongoing conflict,
the twenty twenty six Iran War. We're calling it Operation
Epic Theory. I think that's a cool name. Israel wants
to call it Operation Roaring Lion. Look, I think that's
a little soft. It almost its kind of sounds a
little Lindsey Graham to me, a little light in the wrist,
(18:14):
a little uh like the kind of guy that wears Capri's. Obviously,
Operation Epic Theory is a better name, right.
Speaker 4 (18:20):
Yes, Roaring Lion makes me think of like that kind
of like like queer guy who wears a catsuit for
colloween and goes around going like, are so yeah, I
like wearing lion that's like little cat ear a little tail.
I don't. I don't like that. I like Epic Fury.
Speaker 2 (18:36):
Yeah. I like Operation Kill the Bad Guys even more.
Operation Kill the Bad Guys is a cool name. Have
you seen that? When they make fun of Pete hag
sets on Saturday Night Live, they make them seem so cool,
Like do they not know that?
Speaker 3 (18:51):
Like?
Speaker 2 (18:51):
I really like their version of Pete Haggseth seems almost
cooler than the real Pete hag Seth. I don't know
if that's what they're trying to do, but that's how
I feel about it.
Speaker 4 (19:01):
The Left hates Pete haig Seth When I watch him testify,
and those Democrat Senate senators, the women senators tear into him. Secretly,
they are tearing into him because they lust for Pete
haig Seth in ways that their loins cannot contain. Pete
haig Seth is without sounding too homosexual, Pete Haigseth is
(19:22):
like every American dude's like I want to be his
friend or I kind of wish I could be him.
I want his hair, I want his bravado, I want
the I want his medals. Right, So they hate Pete
haig Seth because guys like Pete haig Seth never winked
at them, right, Like guys like Pete haig Seth didn't,
you know, hang out with Elizabeth Warren. So that's why
she hates him. It has nothing to do with his
(19:44):
beliefs or his It has to do with the fact
that he is Pete. Pete is everything you want in
a secretary of war. Proof of that is the enrollment numbers.
And I think enrollment numbers will go up even during
an Operation Epic Fury, because there are a lot of
seventeen and eighteen year old bros who are lost. Sadly,
(20:05):
some of them have turned to a holes like Nick
Fuintes and Tucker Carlson. Sadly, some of them have turned
to lost voices and have been screwed up. But a
lot of them look at Pete and are like, I
kind of want to be like that. And that is
why people are adjoining the military left and right. Because
Pete is attractive in the classic sense, and people want
(20:27):
to emulate that.
Speaker 2 (20:28):
You were once a very big fan of, or at
least a supporter someone that of Tucker Carlson. The general
sentiment about him has changed a lot, hasn't it.
Speaker 4 (20:38):
I just don't understand where people lose their perspective that much.
And I know fame can do that to people. It
doesn't new to everybody. I've been coming on your show
for eight years now. You've just grown and grown and grown,
and you're the exact same guy I met eight years ago.
I think that's a testament to who you are. I
(20:58):
don't know when you go off the rail, but you know,
he's just one of a many chorus the view. When
it started twenty years ago, people like my mom used
to watch it because it was a bunch of women,
loud and funny and talking. What happened to them? Right?
What happens to people when you get a platform that
you start becoming insane or.
Speaker 6 (21:21):
You know what.
Speaker 4 (21:22):
We see this in every industry. You become too big
for your breeches. I'll never understand it. The same Donald
Trump is the same. Donald Trump is the same Donald Trump.
You can hate the guy and there's a lot to
discuss about him, or his policies or his beliefs. But
there is no element of surprise in Donald Trump. He
told you exactly what is going to do. He joked,
(21:43):
what you saw that viral video, I'm gonna bomb the
s out of them, like he and everyone applauded at
one of his rallies. He never hid his agenda and
people have voted for it. So I love that about
the guy. You knew exactly what you were getting.
Speaker 2 (21:59):
That famous saying from the Dark Knight you either die
a hero or you live long enough to see yourself
become the villain. I prefer this. You either die the
jester or you live long enough to see yourself become
the punchline.
Speaker 4 (22:11):
Yeah, absolutely absolutely. And you know it's a brutal industry,
you know, the world of ideas. It tears people down
and it gets people like Charlie Kirk shot. But but
you know Charlie died the same way he lived as well.
And these are some big, grandiose principles, you know. I
(22:31):
was I was just on a Cincinnati radio show and
we were talking about oil prices, and I reminded the
Ohio audience that their former senator Shared Brown wants his
job backs. He's running. He lost in twenty twenty four.
He wants his featback. So now he's running again, and
we talk about oil prices, We talk about where was
Sharred Brown when Joe Biden depleted the Strategic Petroleum Reserve?
(22:54):
Where was he when Joe Biden and Ohio as a
huge oil and gas state. Not quite as big as Texas,
of course, course, but nothing is, but Ohio is a
huge oil Where was Sherid Brown, your senator when all
of this was happening? And now he wants his job
back for what? For who? For himself? Because he's bored,
He wants he wants a paycheck, he wants a platform.
Where was he when Ohio needed someone to fight for them?
(23:17):
I guess a lot of people are asking the same
thing about your Texas senator as well. You don't earn
your moxie in times of crisis. You earn your moxie
I think in the day to day grind of doing
the right thing when it's unpopular. When you know when,
when when when you get attacked for it, that's when
you become a hero.
Speaker 2 (23:38):
Yeah, it's true. Cornyn is an absolute garbage example of
a senator. Right now, they're not going to pass the
Save Act unless we endorse Corny, Like, give me a break, dude,
is can they be any more transparent with a bunch
of garbage human beings? These are look, I think we
should keep the filibuster. Frankly, I'm you know, I fear
how quickly government will grow and how bigly big it'll
(23:59):
expand if they get rid of the filibuster. But that's
besides the point. Now they're all talking about how they've
always been against the filibuster. No, they haven't.
Speaker 4 (24:08):
No, And this isn't really even getting rid of the filibuster.
This is making people filibuster. This is the thing. The
only reason why we need this magical sixty votes is
because the Senate procedure says that if you get sixty,
we don't have to do all the hours and hours
of debate, and we'll just get there quicker. If you
only have fifty one votes, you have to do the
hours and hours of debate. So all Republicans are saying, debate,
(24:30):
this is what you guys do for a living. You're
going to have to sit on the Senate floor. It's
going to take five or six days. But they don't
want to do that. They have fundraisers to go to, right,
they have Fox News to go on, they have glamorous
things that maybe they'll say, I want to see my
kids baseball game. I get it, buddy, I want to
see my kids baseball game too. But you signed up
to be a senator, and this is the bad part
(24:52):
of the job. You get the good stuff, you get
the book deals, you get the insider trading tips, right,
but the bad part is every now and then you
have to sit on the damn Senate floor for five
days in a row and listen to to you know,
Patty Murray from Washington State, roll on and on for
forty five minutes Corey Booker and make him wet his
(25:13):
pants again wearing a diaper, demanding that he's you know
what did he what do you call himself? Spartacus. That's
the bad part of being a senator. And if you
don't want, and I'm going to start screaming, Kenny, if
you don't want that part, don't run for the damn job.
And that's all we're asking of our senators. Do the
damn hard work, because the American people are doing the
(25:35):
hard work. There is a nineteen year old kid right
now who is throwing chains on a platform in the
Permian basin listening to us. It is hot, he is tired,
he is sweaty.
Speaker 2 (25:44):
He is doing his damn job.
Speaker 4 (25:46):
There's a cop on the beat risking his life because
there's Antifa and Muslim terrorists everywhere. He's doing his damn job.
Do your flippin' job. That's all we're.
Speaker 2 (25:57):
Asking, Daniel Turner, Power the Few Future. Look, I'm not
a big fan of this war. I think most people aren't.
But one thing is for sure. Controlling the global oil
markets at least keeping Iran and Venezuela out of it
probably is going to contribute to world peace. Will this
be America first in the end, if you trust Donald Trump,
hopefully it will be. Hopefully this war doesn't go on forever. Daniel.
(26:18):
I hope you'll come back soon and give us another
update on your thoughts so far.
Speaker 4 (26:21):
Sorry, I got so angry, camp, but I love being
on with your brothers. Thank you.
Speaker 2 (26:25):
Always Welcome here, Daniel Turner, Power the Future. If you
work in oil and gas, give him a follow on
social media. You owe it to yourself. Chus what it is?
Speaker 4 (26:32):
A star cousin right here, tar seeds, it's.
Speaker 6 (26:36):
Ha work to host the show with a couple of
knucklehears ken Western Gitia.
Speaker 2 (26:41):
So if the whole system hiccups, your stocks are not
going to save you. Gold and silver absolutely they're the
hero swooping in with capes made of shiny metal. Banks
and billionaires already know what I'm talking about. The ultimate
hedge is investing in rare minerals. Silver is not just
pretty anymore. It's the industrial powerhouse everyone needs for things
(27:02):
like solar and EVS and AI and defense. And there's
a big demand for it. So you can call Lear
Capital right now today for your free gold and silver
investment kit and score up to twenty thousand dollars in
bonus coins with a qualified purchase. That's real metal in
your hands, folks. Call him today eight hundred three six
four ninety two hundred. That's eight hundred three six four
(27:23):
nine two zero zero. Don't wait for the crash. Call
lear Capital today at eight hundred three six four nine
two zero zero for that shiny protection. But don't just
take my word for it, take the word of Rush Limbaugh.
He supported Lear Capital for a long time, and there's
a reason, all right, kids, So by now you've probably
heard the US economy has lost ninety two thousand jobs.
(27:45):
You've gone from USFA to JC of Penny. My friends,
it's not good out there right now. It is not good.
But we do have some good news. We've got a
guy here right now, and he loves Japanese girls. Please,
welcome to the show. The founder and publisher of Current Revolt,
the go to source for unfiltered Texas political news. He's
(28:07):
earned the nickname. It's earned the nickname the Texas newspaper
of record, called the best reporter in Texas by some
other often called the most hated reporter in Texas. Tony's
built a powerhouse platform over the past five years, breaking stories,
holding power accountable, and being uninvited to cocktail parties. Welcome
to the show, Tony Ortiz of Current Revolt. What's up, Tony?
Speaker 4 (28:28):
What is up?
Speaker 2 (28:29):
Good morning, Tony. You and I are not well liked
at cocktail parties. Why is that?
Speaker 6 (28:36):
Well, because we tell the truth and people don't like that,
and we're and also like, we're not afraid to call
people out for bad behavior.
Speaker 2 (28:42):
I always try to explain to people that, you know,
there's the Texas Tribune and there's the Houston chronicle. But
all those people read Current Revolt partly because they want
to figure out who their bosses and co workers are
cheating on them with.
Speaker 4 (28:56):
That may be one of the reasons.
Speaker 2 (28:57):
Yes, that may be one of the reasons. Why did
you start Current Revolt. You had a good paying job
in corporate America. You people didn't hate you or want
to care. You didn't have to do this for a living.
Why did you quit and start doing this?
Speaker 6 (29:09):
Well, there's a there was a vacuum for that news,
right there was, There was not there was. I found
so often that there was a lot of stories out
there that media outlets, mainstream or otherwise.
Speaker 4 (29:20):
Were refusing to publish.
Speaker 6 (29:21):
They didn't want to get into it, or they didn't
want to talk about it. And you know, somebody has
to talk about the trash that's going on in politics,
and so yeah, I'll be the trash guy.
Speaker 4 (29:29):
That's fine with me.
Speaker 2 (29:30):
You do a thing on your website called Monitoring the Situation.
It's a series that seems to spotlight under the radar
controversial stories stuff the mainstream new zoom news outlets tend
to skip before we dive into the latest issue of it.
What's your criteria to make the cut for that.
Speaker 6 (29:47):
Well, it's just kind of usually like you know, like
under the table stuff or just really like you know,
like insider information that maybe maybe the general public doesn't know,
because our general public doesn't know who the Republican Party
of Texas chairman is, as you know. So this is
just kind of stuff that's just really interesting, but maybe
not enough for an entire story, but enough for a
quick mention in a brief, you know.
Speaker 2 (30:09):
All right. So people always wonder why I don't like
Doc Pete Chambers, as if I haven't explained it enough.
He moved to Texas to an RV park, voted in
one election, bought a cowboy hat, endorsed a woman who
told people they should violently attack me if they see
me in the streets because I and you asked questions
about her weird carpetbagging candidacy. Then one of his supporters
posted my home address online and blocked me. But other
(30:31):
than that, how is the movie Missus Lincoln? The play?
I botched the joke? Other than that, how is the
play Missus Lincoln? Doc Pete Chambers claims he actually won
the Texas Governor's race, despite the official results. The guy
he barely got double digit He barely squeezed into eleven percent.
His opponent got eighty five percent. Why would anyone think
(30:52):
that he won the election.
Speaker 6 (30:54):
Well, when you drink enough of the kool aid, you
start to believe it actually has special powers.
Speaker 4 (30:59):
You know. This is the This is the case with Chambers.
Speaker 6 (31:01):
Chambers, as you said, performed actually surprisingly well considering like
you know what everybody thought he was going to get.
You know, I personally thought he was going to get
five percent. But yeah, he's now claiming in video that
he actually took the election and that he won. And
he says he's not going to waste his time or
his supporter's money paying nine hundred thousand dollars for a recount, which,
(31:24):
by the way, if you've lost by double digits, you
cannot request a recount.
Speaker 4 (31:30):
So he doesn't.
Speaker 6 (31:31):
He doesn't know that, which is not surprising because he's
a goofball. But yeah, a lot of people are are
kind of laughing at this guy. Even his strongest supporters
of are now jumping the ship because they're like, okay, okay,
this guy's drifting.
Speaker 2 (31:43):
Okay. So with that in mind, you raised an interesting
point there. How did a guy with no budget, nothing
but a small amount of cloud On acts get eleven
percent of the vote. It's actually quite impressive if you
think about it. I have a theory. My theory is
that he was basically picking backing off of a sling
shotting off of the port, the the outrage over Abbott
from four years ago, and the grassroots that was basically
(32:05):
built up by an Alan West or a Don Haffines
or a Chad Prayther who all collectively still couldn't beat
Abbot even though they spent millions of dollars that left
enough disenfranchised voters out there. But I didn't hear him
praise any of them. I didn't hear I didn't see
any of them endorse him. Nor did did I see
him suggest that they were great patriots who tried to
(32:26):
fight the establishment. That's kind of an underrated story, isn't it.
Speaker 4 (32:31):
Yeah.
Speaker 6 (32:31):
I think I think Alan West kind of gave a
half budded endorsement of of Chambers. I think I think
I think that was the case because Chambers announced it
on his platform, But Alan West himself never came out
publicly and endorsed him. You know, But yeah, you know,
you had was a Huffines, Prather, and and and West
(32:54):
spend collectively like twenty five million dollars trying to pry
marry Greg Abbit and they still lost. In fact, they
couldn't even trigger a run off of twenty five million dollars.
Speaker 4 (33:06):
And then you've got this guy.
Speaker 6 (33:07):
I think he spent collectively like one hundred thousand dollars
and he got eleven percent. So again, not bad. People
have justifiable concerns and complaints for Governor Greg Abbott, but
two things could be true.
Speaker 4 (33:17):
At the same time.
Speaker 6 (33:18):
Greg Abbot needs to do better and he's not, you know,
performing the best is I think people wanted to perform.
Speaker 4 (33:23):
And also Doc P. Chambers as a joke.
Speaker 2 (33:26):
Yeah, no kidding, he's a complete joke. But apparently in
addition to raising almost thirty thousand dollars, he had an
alarmingly high amount of Beaver bucks donated to him. Those
gift cards you can use it BUCkies that could be
used for gas and snacks, and you know, you just
can't put a price on that.
Speaker 6 (33:42):
Tony's about the only Beavers that were donating to enduring campaign.
Speaker 2 (33:48):
You know, you can get away from that on this
radio show, and you can't get on o An on CHAOSV.
You can't make that joke anywhere else but here it
is completely okay. What do you think happened at the
back of that RV with some of those middle aged
ladies A fifty five year old grandma's he brought back there, Tony, just.
Speaker 6 (34:08):
All some Texan stuff, man, Nothing, nothing crazy, you know,
it's all very very very very proper, very normal campaign.
Speaker 2 (34:14):
By the way, isn't it amazing? You and I have
given more airtime to the candidacy of Doc Pete Chambers
than any other news outlet in the state. He didn't
send us a gift basket. I didn't get any beaver bocks.
I got nothing from the guy.
Speaker 6 (34:28):
Yeah, I mean we should be listed on the TEC
report as an in kind in kind donation.
Speaker 4 (34:33):
All right, all the all the publicity, all right. You.
Speaker 2 (34:36):
I love monitoring the situation. It's one of my favorite
things that you do on your website. There's a story
today about there is another candidate entering the race for
the Republican Party chair trying to take on Abraham George.
And this guy is very big and very black. His
name is Pastor Troy Jackson. What do we know about him?
Speaker 6 (34:55):
Yeah, big black candidate. He is running for the chairman
ship for RPT right. So the Republican Republican Party of
Texas holds an election every two years and basically the
precinct chairs and the delegates get to decide on who's
going to be the new chairman of the Republican Party.
Currently it is Abraham George, who is an Indian born
(35:19):
guy who came to America and he's got a citizenship
and he's running the Texas Republican Party. And now this
the gentleman Troy Jackson has announced his run. Funny enough
in his announcement message, he has a pretty pretty obvious
spelling air but him he's running and is another woman
named Deranda Deranda Randall who's also running against Abraham George.
Speaker 2 (35:43):
I want to support some of these grassroots people. Sometimes
they just make it so hard. You posted this thing earlier,
it was Texans for Vaccine Choice. I probably believe in
everything that they believe in, and yet they posted a
press release. Here they're announced the Department sure a political
director Michelle Evans, and the and then the the press release.
(36:05):
It doesn't there are no spaces in it. It's just
one sheet. It's all it's well, it's it's a lot
of words and there's no space between any of the words.
How does this get published without someone noticing it?
Speaker 4 (36:18):
I have no idea.
Speaker 6 (36:19):
I looked at it and I was like, oh boy,
I thought I got an sweep this morning.
Speaker 4 (36:23):
But yeah, there's a it was. We posted it on
our Twitter.
Speaker 6 (36:26):
It's it's just got a whole bunch of runout messages
and no spaces. But you know, these accidents happen. I
do get it. And TFBC is a phenomenal organization. Texans
or Vaccine Choice the phenomenal organization. But it was just
it definitely, it was definitely funny, all right.
Speaker 2 (36:41):
I just want to say, Tony is the reason we're
organizing a comedy show Friday, June twelfth at the Texas
State Republican Party Convention. It's at ours is going to
be at the House of Blues one block away. It's
a couple of blocks, so it's a short walk, you know,
relatively nice part of downtown. I gotta think we're gonna
We've already sold dozens of tickets. Tony Ortiz had the
idea for me and Jesse Payn and Alex Steying to
(37:03):
throw this show, So he's the reason we're doing it.
I don't know how this happened, but we organized our
event faster than they organized theirs, which is amazing because
I am an FOP tony. But they finally updated their
website with the convention dates, and I got to think
at least part of the reason why is because you
were tweeting about how there was nothing on their website
about the convention.
Speaker 6 (37:22):
Oh, it's going to be and by the way, your
event's going to sell out. So if you're listening to this,
you need to buy tickets for this thing as soon
as possible because come three days towards close to the
actual convention time, it's going to.
Speaker 4 (37:33):
Be sold out.
Speaker 6 (37:34):
Sure, but yeah, the RPT convention or the RPT finally
updated their website to have information on the convention that's
going on. For blisteners that don't know, the Texas Republican
Party Convention that happens every two years is the largest
Republican convention in the world, believe it or not, and
this is going to be such a screw up because
(37:54):
of the logistics they are hosting this convention, which again
is the largest in the world for Republican conventions the
same weekend as the World Cup in Houston. It's going
to be a total disaster and hotels are already overpriced,
restaurants are going to be completely full. It's going to
be a total mess. But you know, that's kind of
what you get with the leadership that's running this thing.
Speaker 2 (38:15):
So I will tell you, you know, it's like pros and
cons to everything. I like Rinaldi, I don't dislike Abraham George,
but I remember a time when this party was ran
by a guy who just wanted to be governor.
Speaker 4 (38:28):
Yeah.
Speaker 6 (38:28):
Yeah, Alan West was a total disaster. Alan West and
the consequences from his race have been a disaster for
the state. And you know now he's running the Republican
the Dallas County Republican Party, and it's not doing much
better under his leadership.
Speaker 2 (38:41):
They do not like you. Why is that?
Speaker 4 (38:43):
Well, because they tell the truth.
Speaker 6 (38:44):
You know, a lot of these politicians they want people
that are constantly, you know, kissing their butt and telling.
Speaker 4 (38:50):
Them nice, good things about them.
Speaker 6 (38:51):
And if they want that, there's plenty of rags out
there and plenty of Republican activists that are willing to
do that.
Speaker 2 (38:57):
But I'm not.
Speaker 4 (38:58):
I'm a Republican but not willing to kiss their butt.
Speaker 2 (39:01):
Tony, how much would it cost for you? How much
would it cost for me to write a flattering for
you to write a flattering article about me on your website?
How many? How many beaver buck gift cards do I mean?
Speaker 6 (39:10):
It's one beaver buck, one beaver and a Portillo sandwich.
Speaker 2 (39:14):
You deal absolutely, Tony Ortiz curveroll dot com is the
website hit it up today? Liberals Republicans hate it. Liberals
hate it even more. But as a voter, I think
a taxpayer, you're gonna appreciate the information you find. To
the rest of you, I love you all. Don't forget
to get your tickets to our Right Side of Comedy
June twelfth at the House of Blues. Buy them now
before they sell out or we get canceled. Both of
(39:36):
those are equally possible. And to the rest of you,
I love you all. We'll be back bright and early
tomorrow morning for more of what you bought a radio for.
Speaker 3 (39:44):
Dude, you are listening to the Pursuit of Happiness Radio.
Tell the government to kiss your ass when you listen
to this show.
Speaker 4 (40:00):
