Speaker 1 (00:00):
Jack ganon government sucks. The Suit of Happiness radio is
do us Liberty and freedom will make you smile. Of
the suit of happiness us on your radio toel just
as cheeseburgers and a liberty fries at the food.
Speaker 2 (00:21):
A new report claims that sixty one percent of Americans
have cut back on groceries due to inflation. I was
wondering about the other thirty nine percent. I'm guessing they're
probably just used to the insane prices because they go
to whole foods. I don't know, good question. I'm Kenny Webster.
It's election day. We got a packed house this afternoon.
Attorney General Ken Paxton's here, he wants to be the senator.
(00:44):
State Senator Mays Middleton's here he wants to be the
attorney general. And a local guy named John Bonk is
stopping by. He wants to be the Congressman to replace
Wesley Hunt. Stick around for all of that, but first
I want to talk about smoking in Japan.
Speaker 3 (01:00):
A fella with a heart of gold, with the waves
of a gentleman. I've been told that kind of a
fella that wouldn't even harm a fleed, but I've never
been to Tokyo.
Speaker 2 (01:08):
I've certainly never been there at night, but I'm told
if you go there, you'd stumble into three different bars
and get three completely different worlds. One joint is so
thick with cigarette smoke it looks like a London fog
evening decided to take up sumo wrestling. And then in
the next door there's a fingency sealed glass smoking room
humming away like a high tech aquarium for nicotine addicts.
(01:32):
And then right down the street you'll find a bar pristine,
smoke free purity, where the only thing getting inhaled is
overpriced craft beer and self righteousness.
Speaker 3 (01:42):
Sounds weird, right, because that's not how we do it
in America. In Japan, the owner of the business gets
to decide if you can vote in there. Isn't that crazy?
They decide if you.
Speaker 2 (01:53):
The noble customer, get to vote with your wallet and
your lungs.
Speaker 3 (01:56):
It's amazing.
Speaker 2 (01:58):
It's like freedom at a love child with common sense
and raised it on sak and mild government medaling delicioso
or however you say that in Japanese, I don't know.
Speaker 3 (02:11):
Let's compare that to America.
Speaker 2 (02:12):
We're roughly eighty two percent of US are smothered under
one hundred percent smoke free rules. Our bars is regulated
as a TSA pat town, except the only thing they're
protecting is your ability to smell like nothing at all.
Japan regulates smoking like they regulate everything else, with a
polite bow and a healthy dose of eh.
Speaker 3 (02:34):
Mostly. The twenty twenty Health Promotional Act cracked down on
indoor puffing in public spots, hospitals, offices, parks, you name it.
But out on the street, forget it. Light up while
walking and you might get fined enough yen to buy
a small island. Smokers are herded into tiny glass booths
like zoo animals on display. Look honey, the endangered Marlboro
(02:58):
man in his natural habitat. But here's the genius part.
The loopholes are bigger than a sumo wrestler's belt. Tiny
bars and restaurants basically the size of your average American
walking closet, can just slap up a sign saying smoking
aloud and then hey, let her rip no employees. Even better,
the owner could change smoke while pouring your drink and
(03:21):
philosophizing about life. These places are everywhere in Tokyo. One counter,
six stools, one guy who is both bartender and bouncer
and probably your knew best friend. As one bar owner
Keith Tanaka put it, I don't even like smoking inside,
but some customers think it's part of the whole experience.
Speaker 2 (03:42):
Translation. Look, I try to be healthy, but the market
demanded lung cancer with high balls. This skuy runs ventilation
that could suck a boeing out of the sky, air purifiers, humidifiers,
the works. It's like trying to balance a geisha's elegance
with a frappois hygiene habits, but it works. Bigger places
(04:03):
smoking band but they build these glass walled nicotine terrariums
where you can sit and drink and eat sushi and
slowly pickle your insides in style. It's adorable, like a
smoking section designed by Apple. And then there's the heated
tobacco stuff whatever sci fi nonsense. Big tobacco is cooked
(04:25):
up recently. Heat don't burn, so the government treats them
like polite cousin of real cigarettes, you know, with the
vaping and all that. Some bars ban the old school
coffin nails, but they let you vape your heated sticks
like a sophisticated robot. One bar owner admitted he allows
them because well, that's what he smokes. Honestly, in this economy,
(04:48):
it's kind of a refreshing, isn't it. Back in the
good old days, pre twenty twenty, Japan was basically one
big ashtray. Now it's a patchwork quilt, your bar, your rules,
and you know what that works. I can remember when
New Orleans ban smoking. Boy, here, that's weird. You can't
smoke cigarettes in the bars in New Orleans, but you
(05:09):
can buy drugs out on the streets, and they've got weird,
sketchy brothels all over the place. Nobody seems to do
anything about it. But you better not light up a cigarette.
America could learn something from Japan. Instead of blanket bands
that turn every bar into a church basement, maybe let
small businesses decide if they want to be the smoky
Dive or the kale Smoothie. Sanctuary, property rights, freedom of association,
(05:36):
the radical notion that adults can sort this out without
a forty five page federal guideline. Imagine that in Tokyo,
the air in the bar isn't dictated solely by some
bureaucrat in a suit. Sometimes it's decided by a guy
pouring the drinks and the folks who walk in knowing
exactly what they're getting. Now, that's a policy you can
(05:57):
exhale with. Why not coming up Attorney General Ken Paxton?
Speaker 4 (06:02):
Coming up more Kenny Webster's Pursuit of Happiness. A safe
space for those who love liberty and try not to
take themselves too seriously.
Speaker 5 (06:11):
Even if your name is Karen.
Speaker 2 (06:16):
Our gold and silver is still a goodbye JP Morgan
and Bank of America thinks.
Speaker 3 (06:20):
So they're forecasting higher prices ahead. That's why Morgan Stanley's
new portfolio allocation is up to twenty percent in precious metals.
Speaker 2 (06:27):
They're getting educated and you should too. Call your Capital

hundred three six four nine two zero zero. That's eight
hundred three six four ninety two hundred. This morning, as
we were broadcasting all over the South, we had Fox
(06:48):
News on in the background, and there it was you
could tell who the establishment wanted to win it was
crystal clear. Fox and Friends was Takada. Senator John Cornyn
about what happens in the very dangerous predicament we'd be
in if his opponent won. His opponent is a tireless
champion for the role of law, the guy that stood
up to the federal government time and time again to
protect the borders and defend our freedoms and fight the Constitution.
(07:12):
John Cornyn's opponent sued the Biden administration hundreds of times.
Speaker 3 (07:17):
He sued big Pharma, he sued big Tech. The reason
people go.
Speaker 2 (07:21):
After John Cornyn's opponent, the reason he gets attacked, is
because all these lobbyists for all these big corporations don't
like John Cornyn's opponent.
Speaker 3 (07:30):
You know, they like they like John Cornyn, which is
the reason why.
Speaker 2 (07:33):
On KPRC Radio Today and our sister station KTRH, it's
pretty much everybody at our team here is admitted to
me out loud unless they're lying who they're voting for.
And it's not John Cornyn, it's Attorney General Ken Paxton.
He is live on the line right now. General Paxton.
What's the mood like out there?
Speaker 6 (07:50):
Brother?
Speaker 7 (07:51):
You know what, I think people are encouraged They're excited
because we've been under this under John corn leadership for
twenty four years. He's actually been in office in college
and I'm sixty three. So I think people are excited
that someone actually will go to Washington represent them, fight
for them, and actually listen to them instead of listening
to Mitch McConnell and the Washington establishment.
Speaker 2 (08:12):
Yeah, and that's it. The East Coast, the Upper East
Coast elites don't want you. They want to pick the
leaders in Texas. They want to pick John Corny. And
one of the reasons why is because you sued Netflix
for spying on Texas kids and families, secretly collecting data,
pushing addictive auto play features. This is the kind of
thing that gets people motivated. This is what the grassroots wants.
(08:34):
Why is big tech like Netflix treating our children like
products instead of protecting them.
Speaker 7 (08:40):
You know, they claim to be family friendly, children friendly,
and yet they are collecting data without telling the parents,
without telling anyone, and then they're selling it. They're selling
the data, and then they use that data to manipulate
behavior and try to get people to do that, try
to get these kids to watch program programming, and so
(09:01):
in the end, consumers. Parents have no idea what's being
pushed at their kids, and so we suit them because
we think that this company, just like many other companies
we sued, including Google and Facebook and seven Chinese company,
they have an obligation to disclose that they're collecting your
data and get your consent before it's done.
Speaker 2 (09:18):
Okay, so you've also filed a lawsuit against a Houston
area birth tourism center. If I explain what this is
out loud, most people won't even believe it. They bring
Chinese nationals to the country specifically to exploit the birthright
citizenship loophole. How big is this problem and what does
this mean for American taxpayers in national security?
Speaker 7 (09:40):
I think we don't know how big this problem is.
We just discovered it, and we did it by using AI.
We went over to China because obviously I don't have
people to teach Chinese, Nanda and Chinese, so we used
AI to figure out what this birthing centers are supposed
birthing center, childcare services center, what they were doing and
what we discovered is they were advertised in China for
birthright citizenship, telling these women come over on a tourism visa.
(10:05):
And you can have your child here and then they'll
forever vise citizens. And they've been doing this for like
twenty years. And the problem with that is now it's
these Chinese communists have access to our voting, they have
access to running for office, and so we sued the
center to stop them from deceiving and deceiving first of
all the government deceiving us, but also doing things that
(10:28):
are completely in voliation of federal law.
Speaker 2 (10:30):
Okay, you secured a historic ten million dollars settlement with
Texas Children's Hospital, unbelievable, including the nation's first de transition clinic.
This was so necessary to protect kids from what I
would describe as irreversible harm.
Speaker 3 (10:45):
I'm sure you agree. Can you explain why to the audience.
Speaker 7 (10:50):
Yes, So this is historic because I don't think it's
ever been done. We sued Texas Children because they were
transitioning children, which I think is child abuse. We have
state laws against it now, fortunately, and so we sued them.
We got a ten million dollars settlement. Their job now
under this settlement they have to open up a d
transitioning unit that will take care of these kids for
five years for free. Because a lot of these children
(11:12):
don't have access to healthcare, they can't afford the de transitioning,
and so what I'm hoping happens is that more states
will see what we did in Texas and that more
kids will be taken care of through efforts like we
just accomplished in Texas.
Speaker 2 (11:26):
I often describe Governor Abbott as being governor good enough
when it's election time. He's a conservative and mixed feelings
about him other times. But when it came to stuff
like property taxes or the state legislature, it feels like
you were more aggressive on this than they were. You
just send letters to over one hundred and thirty Texas
cities blocking them from raising property taxes because they skip
(11:46):
the transparency roles. Texans are finally going to get some
relief from sneaky tax hikes.
Speaker 3 (11:52):
This is so important. Do you think we'll see more
of this in the future.
Speaker 6 (11:56):
Yeah.
Speaker 7 (11:56):
Look, first of all, if to give the legislatesure credit
for passing legislation that allowed me to do this.
Speaker 6 (12:01):
So basically what happens.
Speaker 7 (12:03):
Every city in Texas has to disclose their financial statements
within six months.
Speaker 6 (12:08):
Of the end of the year.
Speaker 7 (12:08):
They have to have them audited. If they do not
do that, then they cannot raise property taxes. And so
we discovered through our work that one hundred and thirty
cities couldn't do that, didn't properly have audited financial.
Speaker 6 (12:21):
Statements available to the public. So we sued them.
Speaker 7 (12:23):
Or no, we sent a letter to them saying that
you cannot raise property taxes, then we will sue you
if you do.
Speaker 2 (12:30):
Yeah, over one hundred and thirty cities failed basic audit
and transparency requirements.
Speaker 3 (12:34):
That's crazy.
Speaker 2 (12:35):
How is holding them accountable help control skyrocketing property taxes
across the state?
Speaker 7 (12:41):
Well, first of all, legislature is trying to make it
transparence because they raise your property taxes, but they don't
tell you why they're raising your property taxes. This is
a way for the public to know what they're spending
the money on it and why they're raising their taxes.
If they do not disclose that, the punishment is you
can't raise your property tax So you have to follow
the rules of disclosure in transparency, or you can't raise
(13:03):
your property taxes.
Speaker 2 (13:05):
It's important and I love that you explain it like that.
We have been watching corporate media all day long. Make
this pitch for cornn it's not just Fox News, it
is mostly the liberal media, which to me is disgusting.
Speaker 3 (13:17):
We don't want that here in Texas.
Speaker 2 (13:19):
This morning, Governor Landry of Louisiana was on this radio
show bragging about you, bragging about all the work you
guys did. They just got rid of Cassidy over there
in that state. Dan Crenshaw is on his way out.
Tony Gonzalez is on his way out. Tony Busby, very
good friend of the show, made this prediction two summers ago.
Speaker 3 (13:37):
I think it was three summers ago. At this point
that the George Bush Republican Party is over, I feel
like you were placing Corn is a perfect example of that.
Can you give us a good pitch of why Corn
needs to go?
Speaker 7 (13:50):
Like it's simple for forty two years, he's been in
office since I was sixty three. Every voter I've talked
to that, every meeting I've been in, I that's the question.
What is John Corn accomplish?
Speaker 6 (13:59):
That is good? Keyword being good?
Speaker 7 (14:02):
And you know what, I've asked that question for fourteen
months across the state of Texas to thousands of people.
No one's ever given me an answer. And the reason
they don't give me. An answer is John Cornon has
never done anything significantly good for the state of Texas
in forty two years. If that's true, we can also
look at the corollary, which is he has done a
lot of bad things, Siding with Joe Budden and restricting
(14:22):
second Memoriz, siding with Joe Biden, of bringing Afghan refugees
here without vetting him, going against Donald Trump on the border,
going against Donald Trump's reelection, going against Donald Trump's first election,
fighting for amnesty, open borders.
Speaker 6 (14:36):
That's John Cornyn. That's why it's don for change.
Speaker 7 (14:38):
We need to send somebody that actually represents Texas studies
and actually does something good for them.
Speaker 3 (14:43):
All Right, one more.
Speaker 2 (14:44):
Quick question, because I know you got to run John
Cornan passionately voting yes on any foreign age paid package,
red flag laws. You're probably going to replace him soon,
which is good, but it's bittersweet. We lose the best
attorney general we've ever had in Texas. Hopefully May's Middleton
replaces you. Is there a chance, if the most likely
the best scenario plays out, we get you and him
(15:06):
to win this election. Today, you could call May's on
the phone and give him you know how to be
the Texas AG one on one.
Speaker 3 (15:13):
I know he's a great lawyer in the oil and
gas industry. Most people have never done your job before.
Speaker 2 (15:18):
You've created a lot of powerful enemies, but you have
very successfully made some great changes in this state.
Speaker 3 (15:24):
What advice would you offer to him.
Speaker 6 (15:27):
Well, look, there's a lot to learn when you're walking
into that.
Speaker 7 (15:29):
I've told Mays I'd be happy to help him as
much help as he wants. I'm willing to give. I
certainly have I will have twelve years of experience doing
that job. I certainly won't make any decisions for him,
but I think, you know, at least when he's first
getting started, I could get him. I could help him
get off to you know, a good star, which I
want him to get off the good start.
Speaker 6 (15:47):
I want him to win.
Speaker 7 (15:48):
I want him to do to do well if he's
going to be in that position, and hopefully that's that's
what happens.
Speaker 2 (15:54):
General Paxton, we wish you great luck today. The grassroots
are behind you. I think we know what the establishment things.
Thanks so much for giving us some time this afternoon. Sir, Hey,
thank you, have a great day.
Speaker 6 (16:05):
Thank you.
Speaker 4 (16:07):
Be wary of strong alcoholic drinks. They could make you
shoot at tax collectors and miss no. No pursuit of happiness.
Do the KPRC nine point fifty Houston no violence.
Speaker 8 (16:19):
All of.
Speaker 2 (16:22):
Our gold and silver is still a goodbye. JP Morgan
and Bank of America think so. They are forecasting higher
prices ahead. With trillions in US debt and inflation gutting
our savings. Gold remains a historical hedge for wealth protection.
Call Lear Capital at eight hundred three six four ninety
two hundred for your free gold investment kit and learn
how you could qualify for up to twenty thousand dollars
(16:42):
in bonus gold. Lear is my trusted source. Call them
today eight hundred three sixty four ninety two zero zero.
That's eight hundred three six four ninety two hundreds. Election Day.
We just spoke to Attorney General Ken Paxton very soon,
Senator Ken Paxton, which bags the question who who replaces
Ken Paxton?
Speaker 3 (17:01):
You know who my pick is.
Speaker 2 (17:03):
It is an absolute honor to introduce a true Texas warrior,
principal to conservative. He was an attorney in the oil
and gas industry, a very successful one. Moved on to
become a lawmaker and a state senator and an entrepreneur,
a businessman, a lifelong Texan.
Speaker 3 (17:19):
He is often attacked by his opponents.
Speaker 2 (17:21):
Chip Roy says, May's Middleton's not a real lawyer, May's Middleton,
State Senator, May's Middleton.
Speaker 3 (17:27):
Why don't we start with that. Are you a real lawyer?
Speaker 6 (17:30):
Absolutely?
Speaker 9 (17:31):
And look, the thing that matters the most is defeating
the left, the number one thing in this office. And look,
for seven years, I've been riding these laws, drafting these laws,
defending them against the Democrat attorneys on the House floor,
defending them against Democrat attorneys on the Senate floor.
Speaker 6 (17:48):
Who better to enforce these laws?
Speaker 9 (17:50):
And someone was on the ground floor of riding them
and already defending them against the left's attacks. And that's
why I've earned the endorsement of so many grassroots conservatives
across the state. And Attorney General Packson says he is
voting for me in this Republican primary runoff, and he
could not imagine chip Roy in this office. And I
know the reason why he couldn't imagine it is chip
(18:10):
Roy did work for the office of the Attorney General.
And on his last day in office, you know what,
he was told, resign or be fired. And he was
escorted out of the building because of gross and subordination.
And I don't know about you, but when you tell
someone resign or be fired, you don't let him back
in the building.
Speaker 3 (18:28):
All right, let's talk about this doctor Ethan Ham.
Speaker 2 (18:32):
Doctor Ham blew the whistle on Texas Children's Hospital mutilating kids.
Speaker 3 (18:37):
Now.
Speaker 2 (18:37):
Attorney General Ken Paxson was just here last segment. We
were talking about the lawsuit the detransitioning clinic. That is
that is all great news, that is the right direction
to move in. But you would pointed out to me,
Chip Roy, Congressman Ship Roy and doctor Ham don't exactly
have the kind of relationships somewhat expect.
Speaker 3 (18:55):
Could you speak to that for a minute.
Speaker 6 (18:57):
Yeah.
Speaker 9 (18:58):
So, look, protecting Texas is one of the most important
things you do in this job. Those that cannot defend themselves,
and I fought to change the law to ban this
evil practice of child transgender surgeries, genital mutilation, and these
sterilizing drugs that permanently disfigure children. We got done in Texas.
(19:19):
It was a Freedom Caucus priority.
Speaker 6 (19:20):
It is law.
Speaker 9 (19:21):
Ken Jackson had the big victory here last week where
he started and forced them to settle and create a
detailed transitioner clinic, in other words, the first in the
nation to reverse this evil practice of child abuse. And look,
there's a difference here between myself and my opponent. What
happened when a very similar bill was going through Congress.
Speaker 6 (19:44):
Chip Roy tried to.
Speaker 9 (19:45):
Offer an amendment that would have allowed child transgender surgeries
to continue. That would have rewarded Gavin Newsom, that would
have rewarded the transgender lobby, all in the name of
states rights and the Commerce clause.
Speaker 6 (19:58):
There is no right to harm a child.
Speaker 9 (20:00):
And I am here and we are here to end
all evil, not just taxpayer funded evil, and not make.
Speaker 6 (20:06):
Excuses about it. Doctor Ham was a champion, and he
blew the whistle and exposed.
Speaker 9 (20:11):
That at Texas Children's Hospital, and because of his boldness,
his bravery, handed that practice there and General Pax, of course,
sued Texas Children's and got that settlement. Though I just
talked about here, But what did chip Roy do when
doctor Haym said he supported me because of my efforts
and leadership in banning this practice, he called him. Chip
Roy called doctor Haym and threatened him. That's not the
(20:34):
kind of character we can have in this office. And
more than that. You know, if you really believe in
this right, if you really believe that life begins at
fertilization like I do, if you really believe that we've
got to protect children from harm, then you will do
whatever it takes to do that and not make excuses
like Chip Roy has.
Speaker 2 (20:53):
Okay, so let's talk about Ken Paxton for a second.
He's got a lot of enemies, and I think the
reason why he has him is because he sues big Tech.
He sues big Pharma. They tried to impeach Ken Paxton.
He was acquitted, there were the old security charges settled, dismissed,
some personal stuff about his life and his marriage. You know,
he's a grandpa. It's sad that he got divorced, but
(21:14):
he was married for a long time, had kids. As
kids have all endorsed him. I think a big part
of the reason why they go after him, why they've
invented a lot of these so called scandals against Paxton,
is because he sues big Pharma, because he sued all
these tech companies. That's what the grassroots want from an
attorney general. But that kind of an attorney general has
(21:34):
very powerful enemies. Mace, will you continue that tradition of
going after these two big defail organizations and corporations, suing
liberal institutions like the State of California or possible future
Democrat presidents. And are you prepared for the consequences that
could come with that.
Speaker 9 (21:53):
Absolutely? And I've got a simple rule. If you aren't
enemy of Texas, you are an enemy of mine. And
I already have this record of going after these woke companies.
I authored and passed the strongest ban on COVID vaccine
mandates in America. Big Farm in the vaccine lobby came
after me on that. We got it done at his law,
it's fifty thousand dollars per occurrence.
Speaker 6 (22:15):
I also took on big soda last year.
Speaker 9 (22:18):
Right, we were spending a billion dollars a year in
Texas on taxpayer funded soda, and they went all in
to stop me and stop this law from passing. I
defeated them one got that into law, and just as
past April, we officially kicked taxpayer funded soda and candy
out of the food stamp program in Texas. And the
(22:38):
left does come after you. Look, I can't be bought
her in it. The left cannot get to me the
swamp cannot get to me. This is about putting our
Christian conservative values into action. And I'm not there to
be liked in love by my fellow politicians and lobbyist.
I'm there to do what's right and leave the results
to God.
Speaker 2 (22:57):
Okay, so we've been told over and over again, Matt
is not popular anymore. Looking at what happened to Bill
Cassidy in Louisiana, looking what happened to Tony Gonzalez. Dan
Crenshaw would be another great Thomas Massey in Kentucky. Clearly,
the people in the wing of the party that aren't
so called MAGA are all on their way out the door.
Speaker 3 (23:17):
It has not gone well for them in this election cycle.
Speaker 2 (23:20):
You are the attorney general candidate that most people consider
to be the pro MAGA candidate. The mega candidates, Paxton
and all these other guys seem to be endorsing you.
That's got to be exciting on election day right now?
Can you speak to that for a minute. Is MAGA
losing its popularity? Is there still a future for the
America First movement?
Speaker 8 (23:40):
Oh?
Speaker 6 (23:41):
Texas is Trump country.
Speaker 9 (23:43):
And look, President Trump is the greatest president we have
ever had, and it's funny when politicians like Liz Cheney
and Ship Roy are surprised when their record of fighting
President Trump touches up to them and haunts them. And
that is exactly what is happening in this race. I mean,
chip Roy is someone that literally gave a speech on
(24:04):
the US House floor saying President Trump needed to be
impeached and that he sided with Liz Cheney against the President.
Speaker 8 (24:12):
He said that she.
Speaker 9 (24:13):
Needed to be commended and not condemned. And not only that,
Liz Cheney later endorsed chip Roy for a congressional leadership role.
And when you look up Trump derangement syndrome in the dictionary,
whose picture is there, Liz Chains? I mean not only
that two years ago, not that long ago, chip Roy
worked for one of the largest anti Trump groups in
(24:35):
America that spent millions of dollars trying to oppose President
Trump in the election. Thankfully, he was not successful and
President Trump won overwhelmingly in twenty twenty four. But if
you're confused what he really thinks, if you think that
you're not sure, think of this. Chip Roy got on
TV and he said we were maga efforts who could
kiss his You know what that sounds a lot to
(24:58):
me like Hillary Clinton sixteen calling us a basket of deplorables,
and I'm proud to be in that basket of deplorables.
Speaker 2 (25:06):
Okay, So something I was surprised about, something you've been
criticized for, is being soft on crime. I've never felt
I never I didn't understand where that attack was coming from.
You and I have spoken off the air before about
how both my family and yourfore we both dealt with
stalkers and personal issues and our in our uh you know,
in our are off the air, away from politics life.
(25:26):
To be accused of being soft on crime, where's that
coming from? And what's your reaction to it?
Speaker 9 (25:32):
I am the tough on crime, law and order candidate,
and it's why law enforcement across the board has endorsed me.
Texas Municipal Police Association, the Fraternal Order Police HPOU here
in Houston has endorsed me, because look, if you treat
our laws and our constitution as a suggestion as the
George Soros DA's are doing, you've got to be removed
(25:52):
from office. And I believe in the death penalty as well.
And let's talk about this with Chip Roy. There was
a bill before Congress that held these Blue Soros DA's accountable,
and what it did allowed the federal government to charge
those assaulting police officers, including illegal Emirates assaulting police officers
with a crime that was a protect and Serve act.
Speaker 6 (26:14):
Chip Roy killed that deal.
Speaker 9 (26:16):
In fact, a George Soros group thanked him for killing it,
and the Fraternal Order of Police leader Joe Gamaldi said,
because of this and because of just anti law enforcement ways,
he is disqualified from even serving in this office, and
we have to oppose him in this election. And that
is from the Fraternal Order of Police. So this is
(26:37):
really simple here, because if we don't have law and order,
if we don't have tough on crime, someone can take
your life, someone can take your liberty, someone can.
Speaker 6 (26:45):
Take your property.
Speaker 9 (26:46):
You literally cannot exercise your God granted freedoms.
Speaker 6 (26:50):
And you have suffered this firsthand, Kenny.
Speaker 9 (26:52):
You have suffered that, the stalking, the criminal activity, treating
our laws as suggestions, and thank god there was justice
in your case, but there are many that it's not
the case, and we need to make sure that we
protect those who cannot protect themselves.
Speaker 2 (27:06):
State Senator May's Middleton, You're a friend, I am proud
to have endorsed you. Good luck out there today, brother,
Keep up with us and we'd love to hear back
from you after you win.
Speaker 6 (27:14):
Hey, God bless you appreciate y'all. Got bless Texas.
Speaker 9 (27:17):
Make sure to go vote got till seven o'clock today,
Maga May's for Texas Attorney General.
Speaker 5 (27:21):
Hey, good luck, brother, you were listening to Kenny Webster's
Pursuit of Happiness where everyone is welcome, even scum sucking
meggot swallowing socialist bastards you used to refer to as.
Speaker 3 (27:33):
Mom, ladies and gentlemen, Texans and fellow patriots.
Speaker 2 (27:40):
I'm very excited to interview our next candidate. I have
endorsed all the candidates we spoke with this afternoon. Ken
Paxton was here a short time ago. May's Middleton I
think a great pick for Senate, and I am very
excited about John Bonk in Texas District thirty eight. That's
a lot of you know, Wesley Hunt was a regular
on the show for a long time, probably spent more
(28:02):
time on this radio show than any other person in
public office. So when Wesley Hunt announced that he wasn't
going to be in District thirty eight anymore, some of
us were concerned, and then I learned about John Bank.
John is a devoted husband, father, successful businessman, hard working
Houston conservative populist endorsed by Donald Trump, Ted Cruz, Congressman
(28:24):
Morgan Latrial. So many different people, and isn't it interesting
there are people being hired right now to investigate and
attack him. I mean a lot of money is being
spent right now to take down John Bank, and it
is not working. I'm sure your life hasn't exactly been perfect,
but boy, when some of these paid for political assassins
(28:44):
went after you figuratively speaking, I think they were expecting
to find something. This has turned into a whole lot
of nothing as far as scandals go. Anything you want
to announce on the show right now, Any bad habits, kinks,
any weird visits to Vegas years ago at a bad
thanks for party you want to tell us about before
the paid assassins find it?
Speaker 10 (29:05):
Oh Man, Kenny, hey brother, Good morning, good afternoon, Good
to be with you.
Speaker 1 (29:11):
Man.
Speaker 10 (29:11):
I just think it's crazy when a businessman, a father,
a husband, somebody who loves his country, loves Texas, you know,
Phil's called to serve in public office, that you see
the administrative state, right.
Speaker 8 (29:22):
You see the establishment.
Speaker 10 (29:23):
You see the swamp that doesn't want somebody who will
not be beholden to them, somebody who's actually a prethinker,
somebody who's actually America first, who's an actual conservative. When
that person puts an in on a ballot and puts
forth a great race, finishes first in the primary. A
lot of dirt forces are always around the corner.
Speaker 8 (29:43):
And yeah, I mean it's pretty silly.
Speaker 10 (29:44):
I had somebody stalk me at my house, stalk me
at my business. They harassed my employees, all trying to
find something, and obviously they didn't find anything because there's
none for me to hide. Man, I'm an open book,
and man, I just think we need godly everyday Americans
back office, and that's how we move this country forward.
Speaker 2 (30:02):
I ran into you this weekend. You were out with
your family eating tacos. I was out with my girlfriend
walking her dog. And you know, I did a rally
with you just a week or two back with Brandon Gill.
Hundreds of people gathered together in Harris County. People very
excited about your candidacy. But John, I'll tell you when
I ran into you on the street, My first thought
was if I could see you, that means other people.
(30:23):
That means weird people are probably following you around. Your
life is going to change, dude, I don't think anybody
is a very unlikely chance you don't win today. And
if that happens, you are going to have people coming
after you. Washington, d C. Is a weird, corrupt place.
People are going to be throwing money at you.
Speaker 3 (30:39):
People. I mean, you have all the right positions for
MAGA populism, right wing liberty movement. You are a threat
to these people the same way that Paxton is, the
same way Middleton is. The establishment does not want you
to win. John. Does that make you nervous?
Speaker 8 (30:55):
Yeah, it sure does.
Speaker 10 (30:56):
But man, you know I live life on my knees
before the Lord, and you and I talked about this.
If you're rooted in the right things, being rooted in
Jesus Christ, and you surround yourself with the right people.
You know, we're gonna build a very conservative office here
in the district and my congressional staff in DC, and
you know.
Speaker 8 (31:14):
A lot of these people they don't have the boundaries.
Speaker 6 (31:16):
You know.
Speaker 8 (31:16):
We you and I talked the folks that go up
to DC to serve.
Speaker 10 (31:20):
They stay up in DC on the weekends and they
get caught up in all these parties and things like that.
Speaker 8 (31:25):
I'll look at it as a deployment, Kenny. I'm flying out.
Speaker 10 (31:28):
On Monday after I take my kids to school, meeting
with my team and staff incess on Tuesday, Wednesday and
Thursday on the battlefield, and I'm coming home on Thursday,
nights in the district on Friday, soccer fields on Saturday,
and with my church family on Sunday. And that's how
you serve as an effective representative.
Speaker 8 (31:44):
You stay up there. That's where bad things happen, all right.
Speaker 2 (31:47):
You're a deacon, you're a Bible study teacher, you're a
family man. So these paid political assassins, they're not going
to find anything there. The stuff they're trying to come
after you for questions about home loans you offered to people,
and it doesn't seem like they had any definitive proof
that you did anything wrong, So they're intentionally being vague
at least that's how it seems to me. How do
(32:08):
you react to the stuff the critics are saying about you,
the attacks, if there was any there there, I feel
like what they're saying would be more tangible. It just
doesn't have any substance. But you know, I don't know,
I don't know what the truth is.
Speaker 3 (32:20):
What is the truth?
Speaker 10 (32:23):
Yeah, I mean, Kenny, there's a saying in politics, when
you have the law, you bang the law.
Speaker 8 (32:27):
When you have the facts, you bang the facts. When
you have neither, you bang the table.
Speaker 10 (32:31):
And so my opponent's been banging the table real loud
out of desperation, trying to create some fabricated story that
me or my team do loans for illegal aliens or
immigrants and Colony Ridge. Me and my team have never
done the loan for a legal immigrant and never done
a loan in Colony Ridge. And so it's unfortunate that
in a Republican primary a person would choose to start
(32:54):
campaigning on lies when my campaign's been built on truth, integrity, honor,
our conservative values, and honoring the Lord Jesus Christ. And
so that's what I'm going to keep doing. That's how
I plan to serve. But yeah, it is unfortunately that
we've come to this point.
Speaker 2 (33:07):
All right, do you think you have one scandal that
you're not being honest about here? Now, you got your
bachelor's degree in biochemistry. You didn't get it at A
and M. You didn't get it at UT, you got
it at LSU. The Tigers, John, you're breaking our hearts here.
Although there are a lot of tigers in Houston.
Speaker 8 (33:23):
Yeah, yeah, man, there's a lot of Texas tigers. And
I think a.
Speaker 10 (33:27):
Cajun and a Texan's a beautiful blend. And the people
in thirty eight love Louisiana. I love Texas. And you
know who didn't have ton of sassaries in their kitchen
counter cabinet, right.
Speaker 2 (33:39):
Houston is the one city in Texas other than like,
you know, the Golden Triangle, where you just find a
lot of Cajun culture, a lot of Louisiana culture. Almost
every executive here at our radio station went to LSU.
The funniest accents in the South, I gotta think, John, Yeah, it's.
Speaker 8 (33:57):
An eclectic space, man, is unlike any other part.
Speaker 10 (34:01):
But no, I'm very thankful. You know, I moved here
sixteen years ago. Houston's been my home. It's where I
fill up my wife, it's where I built a business,
that's where I'm raising my kids. You know, my opponent
to outs how many generations of Texan they are and
I laughed at My kids are seven generation Texan and
their dad's first generation.
Speaker 8 (34:20):
But I don't see anything wrong with that.
Speaker 10 (34:22):
Because Houston is one of those transient cities where people
come to build a career, build a life, build a family.
And I love Houston and it's gonna be the honor
of a lifetime to serve the folks here in Texas
thirty eight.
Speaker 2 (34:32):
Most people are expecting you to win. You were three
points away from no runoff. I mean that was very close.
And assuming you win today, which I think most people
are expecting you to. Your district was designed for a
Republican to win. It's a very red district. You're definitely
gonna win in November, which means for the next several months,
while other candidates are going out trying to fight Democrats,
(34:54):
your life won't be as stressful as theirs, at least
not in the way that theirs will be.
Speaker 3 (34:59):
That be it said, you told me on the phone
this weekend.
Speaker 2 (35:01):
You think there is a good chance we don't lose
the House, we don't lose the Senate, that it won't
be a lame duck session come next year. Do you
plan to get out and try to help some of
these other candidates around Texas.
Speaker 8 (35:14):
One brother.
Speaker 10 (35:16):
I mean, there's a lot of great Republicans that are
going to be on the ticket in November.
Speaker 8 (35:19):
And our team we knocked fifty five.
Speaker 10 (35:22):
Thousand, six hundred doors between the primary and the runoff,
So we have the infrastructure, we have the personnel ready
to be deployed to all the other races that are
going to be happening around Harris County. And I'm gonna
show up from our brothers and sisters, and we're going
to get the Republican voters out in November and do
everything we can to turn Harris County rid and then
win every state wide election here in Texas.
Speaker 2 (35:43):
All Right, A little bird told me you might be
at the comedy show we're doing Friday, June twelfth at
the House of Blues. You're definitely going to be at
the state convention. John, my brother from another, get out
there today and crush it. We're excited for you. I
am proud to endorse you. Every two years they tell myself,
I'm not going to endorse candidates in the primary, and
I always do, but I don't. I don't regret endorsing you,
(36:05):
my man. Good luck today, brother, Thank you, Bill.
Speaker 8 (36:10):
I really appreciate it.
Speaker 10 (36:11):
And to all the audience members out there, y'all get
out and vote now in this run off today, and
y'all get out and vote in November, and y'all show
up at Kenny Show.
Speaker 8 (36:19):
It's gonna be awesome.
Speaker 3 (36:19):
Now, my man. Thanks John, Hey to the rest of you.
Speaker 2 (36:22):
We'll be back bright and early tomorrow morning for more
of what you bought a radio for.
Speaker 3 (36:26):
Go vote. Two percent of Republicans have voted.
Speaker 2 (36:28):
One percent of Democrats have voted in this election all
over the state of Texas.
Speaker 3 (36:32):
Go do something about that. Have a great afternoon.
Speaker 11 (36:40):
You are listening to the Pursuit of Happiness Radio. To
the government to kiss yours when you listen to this show.
Speaker 3 (36:55):
Everyone.
Speaker 2 (36:55):
Kenny Webster here with a quick reminder from our friend
Rush Limbaugh. Economy the financial equivalent of a drunk eye
trying to parallel park a semi truck. That's why you
need to start considering investing in gold.
Speaker 3 (37:08):
I love it Lear Capital.
Speaker 2 (37:09):
They sent me a free gold investment kig, no strings attached,
no sales pitch, just straight info and get this. You
might even qualify for twenty thousand dollars in bonus coins.
You've heard good things about silver Leiley they're getting It's
getting used a lot in the tech industry, obviously, from
solar panels to AI. Lear has been a trusted source
for years. Call Leer Capital right now eight zero zero
(37:30):
three six four nine two zero zero. That's eight hundred
three six four ninety two hundred. Grab your free kit
and see if you qualify for that bonus gold. Do
it before the economy tries to parallel park a semi
truck again. There's a reason why Rush Limbaugh endorsed Lear Capital.
There's a reason I endorsed Lear Capital.
