Speaker 2 (00:20):
A new poll polling data reveals one in five Canadians
consider America to be the enemy. And then they remembered
we took Justin Bieber off their hands, and they said, ah,
never mind. Today on the show Stopping Buying a little Bit,
Brandon Waltons is here from Texas scorecard dot Com with
all the latest on what happened late last night the
Texas State Capital as we passed universal school choice in
(00:43):
the Texas State House. We'll explain what that means, what's
going to happen next, how it will affect you and
your family members, and education in the state. Also here
this afternoon Holly Hansen from the Texan Dot News. She
is the local Harris County, Houston area reporter and she's
got all the latest from our little neck of the woods.
Speaker 3 (01:00):
Well us.
Speaker 4 (01:00):
Tim mathis our Hollywood News reporter.
Speaker 2 (01:02):
We've got news about Harvey Weinstein, puff Daddy coming up,
and a female Silver server apparently Marvel comics still thinks
you want to see a woke comic book movie. Before
we get to any of that, let's start out with
this report today from Breitbart dot com. Nobody's surprised about
what we learned yesterday. I never had time to get
to this story. But Cody Balmer's the thirty eight year
old man who was arrested for trying to I would
(01:24):
say he was trying to murder Governor Shapiro. He firebombed
his home. He did it over the weekend Pennsylvania, and
it turns out he hates the Jews. Big surprise there, right,
Shocker Balmer called nine to one one following the attack
early Sunday. He identified himself by name and told reporters
operators excuse me, that Shapiro needs to know he will
(01:45):
not take part in his plans for what he wants
to do to the Palestinian people. Does this guy think
that Governor Shapiro of Pennsylvania is in charge of the military.
What exactly do people think the governor of Pennsylvania?
Speaker 3 (01:57):
Does?
Speaker 2 (01:58):
I get it, he's a Democrat. You don't like him.
I don't like him either, but I don't think that's
a good reason to hurt the guy. This is per
the search warrant obtained from journalists. During the call, Balmer
added that he needed to stop having my friends killed,
he said, and that our people have been put through
too much by that monster. End quote. He also said,
(02:18):
you all know where to find me. I'm not hiding.
I will confess to everything that I had done.
Speaker 4 (02:23):
End quote.
Speaker 2 (02:24):
Police said it sounded like Balmer was reading a script,
and what Balmer allegedly did was pretty awful. If you
go look at the damage to the home, the dam
remember who's in the house, people that have nothing to
do with Palestine or Israel. And yeah, it seems like
he's trying to kill him, didn't he. At two o'clock
Sunday morning, the Sunday after passover, Governor Shapiro was asleep.
(02:47):
So is his wife. So we're four children, so we're
their guests. The governor's residence in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania was literally firebombed.
Balmer's accused of scaling the residence's iron security fence. He
broke into the residence, he said, at it on fire
and then planned to beat the governor to death with
a hammer. Sounds familiar. Bomber was arrested later that day
(03:07):
faces charges of attempted homicide, terrorism, aggravated arson, aggravated assault.
Attacks on elected officials are attacks on everyone. I don't
like it. If you attack a Democrat, if you attack
a Republican, it's all the same to me. It's not okay,
for better or worse. These are the people we the
people have chosen to represent us. Murdering or attempting to
(03:29):
murder our representatives is an attack on America itself, in
this case, the entire state of Pennsylvania. This is the
second time Shapiro has been targeted for being a Jew.
During the twenty twenty four presidential election campaign, there his
little doubt, Shapiro was passed over u pun intended as
Kamala's running mate because he's a Jew.
Speaker 4 (03:52):
Nothing really makes sense, does it.
Speaker 2 (03:55):
Shapiro is very popular in a swing state, but harr
chose Goofy Tampon Tim Walls to be her running mate
a state she had in the pocket. She didn't need
Minnesota that wasn't up for grabs for Trump. Democrats had
become the party of anti Jewish hate, the party of discrimination.
Kamalin knew that choosing Governor Shapiro would cost her a
(04:17):
key part of the Democrat Party's sick base, the pro
Hamas Jew haters, the people who storm our campuses, the
people who rampage through the streets that call for the
extermination of Israel from the river to the sea. They
say that means dump all the Jews in the ocean,
the Mediterranean Sea. If Balmer's guilty, he needs to go
to prison. These were four kids in that house. They
(04:37):
were children, little kids. It's not okay to kill anyone,
but I think it makes it a little worse when
their kids. People on the left can no longer be
appeased or negotiated with. Had this Sunday attack been on
a Republican, Democrats would be treating Balmer like they're treating
accused murderer Luigi Mangione or deported terrorist Kilmar Abrago Garsa,
(05:01):
or the black teenage track runner Carmelo Anthony up in
the Dallas Fort Worth area. I could list more examples.
They treat them all like martyrs and folk heroes because
liberals love violence.
Speaker 3 (05:11):
I'm not a fan of the government doing anything.
Speaker 4 (05:14):
This is the pursuit of happiness. Radio on kprc AM
nine fifty it was a song in the nineties, Black Jesus.
Speaker 2 (05:26):
It is Holy Thursday, and I'm spending some time today
at Saint Michael's Catholic Church. I remind our Catholic listeners confession, dude,
do a little confession feels good, cleanses the soul feels
good to do it. My next guest is a the
only female Catholic priest in America. Her name is Holly
Hanson of Saint Mother Teresa. That's not true, Holly, you're
(05:47):
Catholic though. How are you this week?
Speaker 5 (05:50):
I'm doing great and I am absolutely not a priest
that would be going to the teaching of the church.
Speaker 2 (05:57):
You didn't grow up Catholic. You became a Catholic as
an adult. What made you decide to do that?
Speaker 5 (06:02):
I converted, you know. I've been fascinated by the Catholic
Church and the teachings for a long time and did
some deep dives into the study of the history and
the theology, and last year went ahead and joined the
Catholic Church and very happy with that decision.
Speaker 4 (06:19):
Okay, So what religion did you grow up with?
Speaker 5 (06:23):
I grew up a couple of different things. It kind
of balanced around Protestant, you know, Lutheran, and then you know,
went to some non denominational churches and named some Baptist
churches for a while, and you know, so kind of
explored all of Christianity, you might say, and all the
different theological approaches to God and Christianity, and decided Catholic
(06:49):
is the home for me.
Speaker 2 (06:50):
I got to think Lutheran, Lutheranism and Catholicism not real different,
but you know, obviously non denominational quite different. So you're
kind of an unlikely Catholic as you grew up with
being a Protestant and non dominational. I'm kind of an
unlikely Catholic because I'm a dirt bag, and so I
guess we have that in commonly.
Speaker 5 (07:09):
Well, you know what, I love confession. It's awesome. We're
all kind of dirt bags, right, Yeah. Confession helps us
cope with that and get.
Speaker 2 (07:17):
To a better polate but especially me, And that's part
of being a Catholic. You got to own it all.
Speaker 5 (07:22):
Right.
Speaker 2 (07:22):
Let's go to Harris County. Harris County twenty twenty two
judicial election do over. Last year, a judge ordered a
new election to be held in May twenty twenty five
for the one hundred and eightyieth District Court. You and
I have talked about this story on the air before,
and this is actually, this is important to people in
Southeast Texas.
Speaker 4 (07:39):
This will affect us.
Speaker 2 (07:40):
But because there's so much else happening in the news,
a lot of people may not even be aware of it.
Can you explain why they needed a do over? Who's involved?
You know, give us the skinny here, Holly, go.
Speaker 5 (07:49):
Ahead, absolutely say this is a du ever from the
twenty twenty two election, So we are to what two
and a half years away from that now. But your
listeners that don't know, twenty twenty two Harris County's elections
were just chaotics. So we had we had dueling court orders.
One thing, pull us up to stay open an extra hour,
(08:11):
and then the Supreme Court came in and said no,
you can't do that. And then they were votes casts
and they were supposed to be kept separately. All along
the way too, we had officials who undersupplied the different
polling locations with the paper ballots that they needed. In fact,
we had someone who was charged with felony crime in
relation to that last year. So there was just a
(08:33):
lot that went on that day and a lot of
confusion and chaos, and so you had twenty one candidates
file election contests. Most of them were unsuccessful, but one
was successful. Now, the case was delayed for quite some
time because the candidate who purportedly won kept filing appeals.
(08:56):
And last year I judge said enough is enough and
I'm ordering a new election. Well, that new election was
supposed to take place next month, in May of twenty
twenty five, but again the candidate appealed to Texas a
first Court of Appeals, and even though that court heard
oral arguments earlier this year, they still haven't issued an opinion.
(09:20):
And so now all of the deadlines have passed forgetting
something on the ballot in May, and so it's going
to be delayed again. In the meantime, this judge is
sitting on a criminal court in Harris County, a felony
criminal court for that matter, and Judge has already said
that really the true outcome of that election is not
(09:42):
known and it needs to be redone. By the time
it gets redone, though, I mean, it could be maybe
as early as November twenty twenty five, but everybody's best
guess is that maybe twenty twenty six. So now you're
talking about four years away from a very problem election
that voters might get another chance to weigh in, And
(10:04):
it's just I think it's really frustrating for people who
are election observers when they see a problematic election like that,
that there is so little recourse and it's very costly
and time consuming, and it may take years to sort
it all out and for voters to get to say
I will say in it.
Speaker 2 (10:24):
You know, that is very cool, But boy, what are
the term limits of these I mean, how long were
these people even supposed to be on office for? It
feels like if they're delaying the election, do over this long?
Like why even do the do over?
Speaker 5 (10:38):
Right? Exactly? So yeah, I mean it's a four your term,
so that bench will be on the ballot again in
twenty twenty six anyway, So then what happens we just
don't know. I mean, we're all kind of in new
territory here, but really an interesting legal problem. I note
that some of our lawmakers have been trying to look
(10:58):
at how to resolve it and trying to eat up
this process. But again, you know, we had a lot
of issues in twenty twenty two. I think things have
gotten better in Harris County. But you know, recently Governor
Abbot called a special election for the congressional district that
was held by for Shila Jackson Lee and then Sylvester Turner.
(11:18):
But he didn't call it right away, whereas you know
in the past sometimes he might see some quickly called
special elections. The reason Governor Abbot Gates gave for waiting
is because Harris County has such a poor track record
of running elections, and he said he wanted to give
them more time to prepare and make sure that they
had a free and fair election.
Speaker 2 (11:40):
Okay, so perhaps you've heard by now speaking of the
banded seat over there in Texas Congressional District eighteen, we
are going to name a terminal at Bush Airport after
Shila Jackson Lee. I'm guessing that's where Spirit Airlines in
front Airline Frontier will be at.
Speaker 5 (11:58):
I really I don't know the answer to that question,
but yes, that passed last week, and and so there
will be a terminal named after the late congresswoman. You know,
it's it's one of those things you do when one
of your elected officials, especially someone who's in office as
long as Shilo Jackson Lee's just something we do is
we name things after them. I think the more controversial
(12:22):
push is going to be to rename a street in
Houston after the late Sylvester Turner. You know, he died
in March, and you know, his legacy is a little
bit problematic when we're looking at the time he spent
as the mayor of Houston. We now have a new mayor,
and it seems like every week we hear about some
(12:42):
new issue that's carried over from the previous administration. There's
been you know, arrest and allegations of corruption, and you
know a lot of people would say that the current
mayors had had quite a mess on his hands to
sort out as far as the budget and shortfalls and overlaps,
(13:03):
and just to you know, I think it's too early
to be rushing out to rename things after Sylvester Turner.
And one of the streets they want to rename in
Houston is bag the streets named after a nineteenth century
founder of Houston and just you know, someone who helped
found the library and helps try to emancipate a black
(13:25):
slave and just a really interesting character. But you know,
we'll see what happens. That one may be a little
more controversial.
Speaker 2 (13:33):
I think, Yeah, he started a famous bank, he started
the library, He tried to get black people freed, right,
and then compare that to Sylvester Turner who tried to
make Astro World Day into a citywide holiday even though
children got murdered there.
Speaker 4 (13:47):
I feel like one of these things is not like
the other, Holly. But you know, you know what else
I feel like.
Speaker 2 (13:51):
I feel like on this Holy Thursday, I'm very grateful
to have my Catholic friend Holly Hansen join me on
the radio this afternoon and tell us about all the
late news. And I pray for you and I'm grateful
for you. You are my sister from another mister.
Speaker 5 (14:04):
Holly, same, same, feel the same, Thanks, Kenny, appreciate it.
In Happy Monday Thursday.
Speaker 2 (14:11):
I know it sounds like I'm joking when I say that,
but I really mean that from the deaths of my soul.
The problem is when I talk, it always sounds like
I'm sarcastic. It's like a weird problem that I have.
Don't you think I'm entitled to some government money for that?
Speaker 5 (14:24):
I you know, you might you might need to file
for you know, I don't know, disability compensation. Or something
like that. But I know when you're sincere, and yeah,
but I.
Speaker 4 (14:35):
Am being sincere. But I also want some money.
Speaker 5 (14:37):
This is Biney sent this and you are listening to
the Pursuit of Happiness radio. Now give me all of
your money, because that's the only thing that's fair.
Speaker 2 (14:44):
Yeah, he wants some money to Aerosmith. Stephen Tyler apparently
used the scarves on his microphones during live performances to
hide his drugs.
Speaker 4 (14:55):
That's remarkable.
Speaker 2 (14:57):
When asked for Keith Richards used to hide his drugs,
he said in his veins, is just a spoiled, pampered,
narcissistic Hollywood brat or.
Speaker 4 (15:05):
What or what?
Speaker 2 (15:09):
He is a comedian from Texas, very funny stand up
comic Tim Mathis travels too Hollywood to become a comedy writer,
leaves Hollywood to go to Albuquerque, New Mexico, where he
is now managing and performing regularly at a popular comedy.
Speaker 4 (15:24):
Club out there.
Speaker 2 (15:25):
Tim, you've lived in New Mexico, California, and Texas. I'm
these places are about as different as peanut butter and bubblegum.
Speaker 4 (15:33):
But what was your experience?
Speaker 2 (15:34):
What you know any notable differences between the three places?
Any similarities worth mentioning.
Speaker 6 (15:41):
I would just.
Speaker 3 (15:41):
Say that the New Mexico homeless they're a little bit
more spry than those out in California. In California, they
seem to be on mostly marijuana, but out here there
seemed to be on fentanyl and myths. So I guess
it's breaking bad. Is art imitating life?
Speaker 6 (16:00):
I don't know.
Speaker 4 (16:00):
Harder drugs anything.
Speaker 2 (16:01):
Now, speaking of New Mexico, Gene Hackman and his family
are in the news today because there were these photos
of their home online, and I guess the family members
were trying to stop the media and people from getting
pictures of the house they were living in Squalor. Gene
Hackman and his wife talk about hoarders. This was like
a hoarder's dream come true. The house had rats nests everywhere.
That's how the wife died. The wife died because supposedly, purportedly,
(16:25):
because the house was so dirty and disgusting, she breathed
in the toxic air spread by rats in their home.
And it's weird because their rats nests in the house,
she couldn't even tell from the piles of garbage everywhere.
Speaker 4 (16:38):
Have you had a chance to look at this at all?
Speaker 6 (16:41):
I haven't looked at it.
Speaker 3 (16:42):
It's unfortunate when people get older, you know, I know
he was I think he had smility or alzheimer or
Alzheimer's and yeah, dementia. It's tough when you get that way.
Speaker 6 (16:56):
Now.
Speaker 3 (16:56):
Granted, I mean they had the money. I'm sure to
have somebody come in and clean it up. But it
just sounds like they were both a little too far gone.
Speaker 5 (17:04):
I don't know, all right.
Speaker 2 (17:05):
So in the world of Hollywood today, people are pretty
excited about a comic book movie. We haven't had a
big comic book movie in a while, at least not
that I can remember. So July twenty fifth, Marvel Studios
is going to release a new film, Fantastic four. First
Step stars Pedro Pascal among other people. The big change
(17:26):
here from previous films is, I guess now the Silver
Surfer is a woman.
Speaker 4 (17:29):
Is that correct?
Speaker 3 (17:31):
Yes, they have gender swapped the Silver Surfer. They're basing
her on a very very obscure character that was only
in like one or two books. And yeah, I'm just
glad they didn't go with the trans Tastic four, which
I'm sure was the original the original pitch where they
were just going to trans all the Fantastic Four, but
(17:53):
at least they didn't do that.
Speaker 2 (17:54):
So okay, So every time Woke does a Marvel does
a woke movie. That's funny that I said that backwards.
Every time Marvel does a woke movie, it seems to fail.
Other than Black Panther, which wasn't really woke, it just
had a lot of black actors in it.
Speaker 4 (18:07):
Captain Marvel sucked. The Marvel sucked.
Speaker 2 (18:11):
We all remember what happened when they did the Star
Wars prequels.
Speaker 4 (18:14):
It's the same people. What are they gonna learn if
this doesn't work?
Speaker 3 (18:19):
It doesn't work, And I mean just the fact that
Pedro Pascal is in it should be a warning sign.
He's in most of the things that they try to wokeify.
But like Exo Hunter said in Crimson Tide, everybody who
reads comic books knows that the Kirby's silver Surfer is
the only true silver surfer. We are not going to
(18:42):
accept their gender swap surfer. So good luck with that, Marvel,
good luck with that Disney, but you might have another
flop income.
Speaker 4 (18:52):
Okay, So let me get this straight.
Speaker 2 (18:53):
Pedro Pascal ruins every Marvel movie, every Disney film that
he's in. But somehow I gotta feel I haven't watch
the new season. I guess it's just debuted. The Last
of Us not terrible?
Speaker 4 (19:03):
Right is that? Have you looked at that yet? That
it's back? Right now?
Speaker 2 (19:06):
That HBO show about the post apocalyptic world. Bella Ramsey's
in it as of they them, And somehow it's actually
not terrible despite all the things I just said about it.
Speaker 3 (19:16):
How connected are you to the Pedro Pascal character?
Speaker 6 (19:19):
Though?
Speaker 4 (19:20):
Oh that's interesting? Why would you ask that?
Speaker 6 (19:23):
I'm just asking say no more?
Speaker 2 (19:25):
Yeah, no spoiler alerts there? All right, Well, I'm gonna
take a look at that. Okay, So let's talk. You
are a comedian, let's talk a little bit about this.
Seth Rogan. I'm so old I can remember when Seth
Rogan was funny and entertaining, back before he got real.
Like so many other people in Hollywood, they just want
you to hate them. Seth Rogan is apparently making news
(19:46):
headlines today because he had some Trump jokes that were
edited out of an award show broadcast and I breakthrough
prize ceremony this one?
Speaker 4 (19:56):
What even was this? I'd never heard of this, never
heard of it either.
Speaker 3 (20:01):
I think The only reason that it's getting any press
is because of this alleged controversy about these jokes being cut.
But number one, they might have been cut for you know,
time or editing reasons. And number two, they might have
been cut just because people are tired of the endless,
tiresome Hackney played out be as Trump jokes.
Speaker 6 (20:25):
It's so old.
Speaker 3 (20:27):
You know, I'm doing a lot of comedy right now,
and it's just over and over. You see the same
tired Trump jokes, and now of course with RFK as well,
but not near as much as I mean, they've been
doing Trump jokes now for ten years and it's just like,
oh my.
Speaker 6 (20:44):
God, guys get a new topic.
Speaker 3 (20:46):
So, especially somebody like Rogan, who's supposed to be, you know,
the highest level of comedic talent, you can't come up
with anything else other than just another we and tired
Trump joke. It's it's ridiculous. People are tired of it.
Speaker 4 (21:05):
You know. I love comedy.
Speaker 2 (21:06):
I'm hosting a comedy tour this weekend with Chad Prather
and Jesse Peyton in New Orleans at Southport Hall Friday
night and then Saturday night we're gonna be at Bruski's
in Hattiesburg, and I just wanted to plug that real
quick before I point out to me the funniest thing
has I love South Park. I've always thought that South
Park was the funniest thing on earth as a child.
(21:27):
As an adult, they won't do Trump humor. And it's
not like they think Trump's sacred or they like them
too much. They won't do Trump humor for the exact
reason you just described, Tim. They think it's two played out.
It's the same dumb joke everyone else is doing. Uh,
they're right, I mean, of course they are. It's just
lazy humor at this point, isn't it.
Speaker 3 (21:47):
Yeah, something something Russia, something something orange something something you know,
hair piece.
Speaker 6 (21:54):
Uh, it's it's.
Speaker 3 (21:56):
Just too easy, too played out, and everybody's been doing
it for you know.
Speaker 6 (22:00):
That's one thing that I did early on.
Speaker 3 (22:03):
I said I'm not going to do a bunch of
Trump jokes like everybody else, And that's kind of paid
off for me. I do a bad Trump impression now,
but I figured I might as well pick it up
since he's around for another four years.
Speaker 2 (22:14):
Okay, Well, you know who's great at it, Shane Gillis.
You know he's the one guy. When he does it,
I think it's actually very funny. But part of that
is because he makes for the liberals and.
Speaker 4 (22:23):
Concerts where else.
Speaker 3 (22:25):
That's where SNL really messed up. I mean, I don't
really watch sn L, but I've seen the guy they
have doing Trump, and he's not as good as Shane Gillis.
And because they got so scary when they originally hired
Shane Gillis and then fired him like three days later,
they really did a disservice to themselves. You know, he's
one of the funniest Trump impersonators that's around.
Speaker 6 (22:46):
So they really messed up.
Speaker 4 (22:47):
All right, A little good news before we leave.
Speaker 2 (22:49):
Notable Democrat long lifetime, long, long time Democrat party supporters
Harvey Weinstein and P Diddy are both in the news
right now for similar reasons. Harvey Wan Einstein's lawyers yesterday
the disgraced Hollywood movie mogul as asking for their client
to be moved to a hospital during his retrial on
rape charges. He says he's being mistreated in New York's
(23:11):
notorious Rikers Island. Meanwhile, P Diddy's lawyers they're asking for
a two month delay of his May fifth sex trafficking trial.
They say they need more time to prepare their case.
They want a delay the trial to address some issues.
It happened during a recent hearing. YadA YadA YadA. Don't
you feel sorry for P Diddy and Harvey Weinstein?
Speaker 3 (23:31):
Tim, No, I don't feel sorry for him at all.
I get that their lawyers have to do everything they
can to help their clients out, but.
Speaker 6 (23:43):
Can't feel sorry for.
Speaker 3 (23:44):
Monsters like that. And as I've said multiple times, those
are only two of the many, many monsters that we have,
and not only film but also the music industry and
entertainment in general. So as much as I understand what
their lawyers are doing, and you know, everybody deserves due
(24:05):
process and whatever, hopefully the cases moved swiftly and hopefully
the punishment fits the crime, is all I can say.
Speaker 2 (24:17):
Yeah, And that's weird How P Diddy was such good
friends with Obama and Harvey was such good friends with
Hillary Clinton, and yet none of them are coming to
the defense of their longtime friends and political supporters.
Speaker 4 (24:28):
Weird.
Speaker 3 (24:28):
Huh, Well, you just said to look at this last
presidential campaign we had, and look at all the Diddy
adjacent or Diddy friends. They were coming out in support
of Kamala Harris to let us know which side of
the aisle at particular monstrosity landed on Wow.

A new poll polling data reveals one in five Canadians
consider America to be the enemy. And then they remembered
we took Justin Bieber off their hands, and they said, ah,
never mind. Today on the show Stopping Buying a little Bit,
Brandon Waltons is here from Texas scorecard dot Com with
all the latest on what happened late last night the
Texas State Capital as we passed universal school choice in
(00:43):
the Texas State House. We'll explain what that means, what's
going to happen next, how it will affect you and
your family members, and education in the state. Also here
this afternoon Holly Hansen from the Texan Dot News. She
is the local Harris County, Houston area reporter and she's
got all the latest from our little neck of the woods.
Speaker 3 (01:00):
Well us.
Speaker 4 (01:00):
Tim mathis our Hollywood News reporter.
Speaker 2 (01:02):
We've got news about Harvey Weinstein, puff Daddy coming up,
and a female Silver server apparently Marvel comics still thinks
you want to see a woke comic book movie. Before
we get to any of that, let's start out with
this report today from Breitbart dot com. Nobody's surprised about
what we learned yesterday. I never had time to get
to this story. But Cody Balmer's the thirty eight year
old man who was arrested for trying to I would
(01:24):
say he was trying to murder Governor Shapiro. He firebombed
his home. He did it over the weekend Pennsylvania, and
it turns out he hates the Jews. Big surprise there, right,
Shocker Balmer called nine to one one following the attack
early Sunday. He identified himself by name and told reporters
operators excuse me, that Shapiro needs to know he will
(01:45):
not take part in his plans for what he wants
to do to the Palestinian people. Does this guy think
that Governor Shapiro of Pennsylvania is in charge of the military.
What exactly do people think the governor of Pennsylvania?
Speaker 3 (01:57):
Does?
Speaker 2 (01:58):
I get it, he's a Democrat. You don't like him.
I don't like him either, but I don't think that's
a good reason to hurt the guy. This is per
the search warrant obtained from journalists. During the call, Balmer
added that he needed to stop having my friends killed,
he said, and that our people have been put through
too much by that monster. End quote. He also said,
(02:18):
you all know where to find me. I'm not hiding.
I will confess to everything that I had done.
Speaker 4 (02:23):
End quote.
Speaker 2 (02:24):
Police said it sounded like Balmer was reading a script,
and what Balmer allegedly did was pretty awful. If you
go look at the damage to the home, the dam
remember who's in the house, people that have nothing to
do with Palestine or Israel. And yeah, it seems like
he's trying to kill him, didn't he. At two o'clock
Sunday morning, the Sunday after passover, Governor Shapiro was asleep.
(02:47):
So is his wife. So we're four children, so we're
their guests. The governor's residence in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania was literally firebombed.
Balmer's accused of scaling the residence's iron security fence. He
broke into the residence, he said, at it on fire
and then planned to beat the governor to death with
a hammer. Sounds familiar. Bomber was arrested later that day
(03:07):
faces charges of attempted homicide, terrorism, aggravated arson, aggravated assault.
Attacks on elected officials are attacks on everyone. I don't
like it. If you attack a Democrat, if you attack
a Republican, it's all the same to me. It's not okay,
for better or worse. These are the people we the
people have chosen to represent us. Murdering or attempting to
(03:29):
murder our representatives is an attack on America itself, in
this case, the entire state of Pennsylvania. This is the
second time Shapiro has been targeted for being a Jew.
During the twenty twenty four presidential election campaign, there his
little doubt, Shapiro was passed over u pun intended as
Kamala's running mate because he's a Jew.
Speaker 4 (03:52):
Nothing really makes sense, does it.
Speaker 2 (03:55):
Shapiro is very popular in a swing state, but harr
chose Goofy Tampon Tim Walls to be her running mate
a state she had in the pocket. She didn't need
Minnesota that wasn't up for grabs for Trump. Democrats had
become the party of anti Jewish hate, the party of discrimination.
Kamalin knew that choosing Governor Shapiro would cost her a
(04:17):
key part of the Democrat Party's sick base, the pro
Hamas Jew haters, the people who storm our campuses, the
people who rampage through the streets that call for the
extermination of Israel from the river to the sea. They
say that means dump all the Jews in the ocean,
the Mediterranean Sea. If Balmer's guilty, he needs to go
to prison. These were four kids in that house. They
(04:37):
were children, little kids. It's not okay to kill anyone,
but I think it makes it a little worse when
their kids. People on the left can no longer be
appeased or negotiated with. Had this Sunday attack been on
a Republican, Democrats would be treating Balmer like they're treating
accused murderer Luigi Mangione or deported terrorist Kilmar Abrago Garsa,
(05:01):
or the black teenage track runner Carmelo Anthony up in
the Dallas Fort Worth area. I could list more examples.
They treat them all like martyrs and folk heroes because
liberals love violence.
Speaker 3 (05:11):
I'm not a fan of the government doing anything.
Speaker 4 (05:14):
This is the pursuit of happiness. Radio on kprc AM
nine fifty it was a song in the nineties, Black Jesus.
Speaker 2 (05:26):
It is Holy Thursday, and I'm spending some time today
at Saint Michael's Catholic Church. I remind our Catholic listeners confession, dude,
do a little confession feels good, cleanses the soul feels
good to do it. My next guest is a the
only female Catholic priest in America. Her name is Holly
Hanson of Saint Mother Teresa. That's not true, Holly, you're
(05:47):
Catholic though. How are you this week?
Speaker 5 (05:50):
I'm doing great and I am absolutely not a priest
that would be going to the teaching of the church.
Speaker 2 (05:57):
You didn't grow up Catholic. You became a Catholic as
an adult. What made you decide to do that?
Speaker 5 (06:02):
I converted, you know. I've been fascinated by the Catholic
Church and the teachings for a long time and did
some deep dives into the study of the history and
the theology, and last year went ahead and joined the
Catholic Church and very happy with that decision.
Speaker 4 (06:19):
Okay, So what religion did you grow up with?
Speaker 5 (06:23):
I grew up a couple of different things. It kind
of balanced around Protestant, you know, Lutheran, and then you know,
went to some non denominational churches and named some Baptist
churches for a while, and you know, so kind of
explored all of Christianity, you might say, and all the
different theological approaches to God and Christianity, and decided Catholic
(06:49):
is the home for me.
Speaker 2 (06:50):
I got to think Lutheran, Lutheranism and Catholicism not real different,
but you know, obviously non denominational quite different. So you're
kind of an unlikely Catholic as you grew up with
being a Protestant and non dominational. I'm kind of an
unlikely Catholic because I'm a dirt bag, and so I
guess we have that in commonly.
Speaker 5 (07:09):
Well, you know what, I love confession. It's awesome. We're
all kind of dirt bags, right, Yeah. Confession helps us
cope with that and get.
Speaker 2 (07:17):
To a better polate but especially me, And that's part
of being a Catholic. You got to own it all.
Speaker 5 (07:22):
Right.
Speaker 2 (07:22):
Let's go to Harris County. Harris County twenty twenty two
judicial election do over. Last year, a judge ordered a
new election to be held in May twenty twenty five
for the one hundred and eightyieth District Court. You and
I have talked about this story on the air before,
and this is actually, this is important to people in
Southeast Texas.
Speaker 4 (07:39):
This will affect us.
Speaker 2 (07:40):
But because there's so much else happening in the news,
a lot of people may not even be aware of it.
Can you explain why they needed a do over? Who's involved?
You know, give us the skinny here, Holly, go.
Speaker 5 (07:49):
Ahead, absolutely say this is a du ever from the
twenty twenty two election, So we are to what two
and a half years away from that now. But your
listeners that don't know, twenty twenty two Harris County's elections
were just chaotics. So we had we had dueling court orders.
One thing, pull us up to stay open an extra hour,
(08:11):
and then the Supreme Court came in and said no,
you can't do that. And then they were votes casts
and they were supposed to be kept separately. All along
the way too, we had officials who undersupplied the different
polling locations with the paper ballots that they needed. In fact,
we had someone who was charged with felony crime in
relation to that last year. So there was just a
(08:33):
lot that went on that day and a lot of
confusion and chaos, and so you had twenty one candidates
file election contests. Most of them were unsuccessful, but one
was successful. Now, the case was delayed for quite some
time because the candidate who purportedly won kept filing appeals.
(08:56):
And last year I judge said enough is enough and
I'm ordering a new election. Well, that new election was
supposed to take place next month, in May of twenty
twenty five, but again the candidate appealed to Texas a
first Court of Appeals, and even though that court heard
oral arguments earlier this year, they still haven't issued an opinion.
(09:20):
And so now all of the deadlines have passed forgetting
something on the ballot in May, and so it's going
to be delayed again. In the meantime, this judge is
sitting on a criminal court in Harris County, a felony
criminal court for that matter, and Judge has already said
that really the true outcome of that election is not
(09:42):
known and it needs to be redone. By the time
it gets redone, though, I mean, it could be maybe
as early as November twenty twenty five, but everybody's best
guess is that maybe twenty twenty six. So now you're
talking about four years away from a very problem election
that voters might get another chance to weigh in, And
(10:04):
it's just I think it's really frustrating for people who
are election observers when they see a problematic election like that,
that there is so little recourse and it's very costly
and time consuming, and it may take years to sort
it all out and for voters to get to say
I will say in it.
Speaker 2 (10:24):
You know, that is very cool, But boy, what are
the term limits of these I mean, how long were
these people even supposed to be on office for? It
feels like if they're delaying the election, do over this long?
Like why even do the do over?
Speaker 5 (10:38):
Right? Exactly? So yeah, I mean it's a four your term,
so that bench will be on the ballot again in
twenty twenty six anyway, So then what happens we just
don't know. I mean, we're all kind of in new
territory here, but really an interesting legal problem. I note
that some of our lawmakers have been trying to look
(10:58):
at how to resolve it and trying to eat up
this process. But again, you know, we had a lot
of issues in twenty twenty two. I think things have
gotten better in Harris County. But you know, recently Governor
Abbot called a special election for the congressional district that
was held by for Shila Jackson Lee and then Sylvester Turner.
(11:18):
But he didn't call it right away, whereas you know
in the past sometimes he might see some quickly called
special elections. The reason Governor Abbot Gates gave for waiting
is because Harris County has such a poor track record
of running elections, and he said he wanted to give
them more time to prepare and make sure that they
had a free and fair election.
Speaker 2 (11:40):
Okay, so perhaps you've heard by now speaking of the
banded seat over there in Texas Congressional District eighteen, we
are going to name a terminal at Bush Airport after
Shila Jackson Lee. I'm guessing that's where Spirit Airlines in
front Airline Frontier will be at.
Speaker 5 (11:58):
I really I don't know the answer to that question,
but yes, that passed last week, and and so there
will be a terminal named after the late congresswoman. You know,
it's it's one of those things you do when one
of your elected officials, especially someone who's in office as
long as Shilo Jackson Lee's just something we do is
we name things after them. I think the more controversial
(12:22):
push is going to be to rename a street in
Houston after the late Sylvester Turner. You know, he died
in March, and you know, his legacy is a little
bit problematic when we're looking at the time he spent
as the mayor of Houston. We now have a new mayor,
and it seems like every week we hear about some
(12:42):
new issue that's carried over from the previous administration. There's
been you know, arrest and allegations of corruption, and you
know a lot of people would say that the current
mayors had had quite a mess on his hands to
sort out as far as the budget and shortfalls and overlaps,
(13:03):
and just to you know, I think it's too early
to be rushing out to rename things after Sylvester Turner.
And one of the streets they want to rename in
Houston is bag the streets named after a nineteenth century
founder of Houston and just you know, someone who helped
found the library and helps try to emancipate a black
(13:25):
slave and just a really interesting character. But you know,
we'll see what happens. That one may be a little
more controversial.
Speaker 2 (13:33):
I think, Yeah, he started a famous bank, he started
the library, He tried to get black people freed, right,
and then compare that to Sylvester Turner who tried to
make Astro World Day into a citywide holiday even though
children got murdered there.
Speaker 4 (13:47):
I feel like one of these things is not like
the other, Holly. But you know, you know what else
I feel like.
Speaker 2 (13:51):
I feel like on this Holy Thursday, I'm very grateful
to have my Catholic friend Holly Hansen join me on
the radio this afternoon and tell us about all the
late news. And I pray for you and I'm grateful
for you. You are my sister from another mister.
Speaker 5 (14:04):
Holly, same, same, feel the same, Thanks, Kenny, appreciate it.
In Happy Monday Thursday.
Speaker 2 (14:11):
I know it sounds like I'm joking when I say that,
but I really mean that from the deaths of my soul.
The problem is when I talk, it always sounds like
I'm sarcastic. It's like a weird problem that I have.
Don't you think I'm entitled to some government money for that?
Speaker 5 (14:24):
I you know, you might you might need to file
for you know, I don't know, disability compensation. Or something
like that. But I know when you're sincere, and yeah,
but I.
Speaker 4 (14:35):
Am being sincere. But I also want some money.
Speaker 5 (14:37):
This is Biney sent this and you are listening to
the Pursuit of Happiness radio. Now give me all of
your money, because that's the only thing that's fair.
Speaker 2 (14:44):
Yeah, he wants some money to Aerosmith. Stephen Tyler apparently
used the scarves on his microphones during live performances to
hide his drugs.
Speaker 4 (14:55):
That's remarkable.
Speaker 2 (14:57):
When asked for Keith Richards used to hide his drugs,
he said in his veins, is just a spoiled, pampered,
narcissistic Hollywood brat or.
Speaker 4 (15:05):
What or what?
Speaker 2 (15:09):
He is a comedian from Texas, very funny stand up
comic Tim Mathis travels too Hollywood to become a comedy writer,
leaves Hollywood to go to Albuquerque, New Mexico, where he
is now managing and performing regularly at a popular comedy.
Speaker 4 (15:24):
Club out there.
Speaker 2 (15:25):
Tim, you've lived in New Mexico, California, and Texas. I'm
these places are about as different as peanut butter and bubblegum.
Speaker 4 (15:33):
But what was your experience?
Speaker 2 (15:34):
What you know any notable differences between the three places?
Any similarities worth mentioning.
Speaker 6 (15:41):
I would just.
Speaker 3 (15:41):
Say that the New Mexico homeless they're a little bit
more spry than those out in California. In California, they
seem to be on mostly marijuana, but out here there
seemed to be on fentanyl and myths. So I guess
it's breaking bad. Is art imitating life?
Speaker 6 (16:00):
I don't know.
Speaker 4 (16:00):
Harder drugs anything.
Speaker 2 (16:01):
Now, speaking of New Mexico, Gene Hackman and his family
are in the news today because there were these photos
of their home online, and I guess the family members
were trying to stop the media and people from getting
pictures of the house they were living in Squalor. Gene
Hackman and his wife talk about hoarders. This was like
a hoarder's dream come true. The house had rats nests everywhere.
That's how the wife died. The wife died because supposedly, purportedly,
(16:25):
because the house was so dirty and disgusting, she breathed
in the toxic air spread by rats in their home.
And it's weird because their rats nests in the house,
she couldn't even tell from the piles of garbage everywhere.
Speaker 4 (16:38):
Have you had a chance to look at this at all?
Speaker 6 (16:41):
I haven't looked at it.
Speaker 3 (16:42):
It's unfortunate when people get older, you know, I know
he was I think he had smility or alzheimer or
Alzheimer's and yeah, dementia. It's tough when you get that way.
Speaker 6 (16:56):
Now.
Speaker 3 (16:56):
Granted, I mean they had the money. I'm sure to
have somebody come in and clean it up. But it
just sounds like they were both a little too far gone.
Speaker 5 (17:04):
I don't know, all right.
Speaker 2 (17:05):
So in the world of Hollywood today, people are pretty
excited about a comic book movie. We haven't had a
big comic book movie in a while, at least not
that I can remember. So July twenty fifth, Marvel Studios
is going to release a new film, Fantastic four. First
Step stars Pedro Pascal among other people. The big change
(17:26):
here from previous films is, I guess now the Silver
Surfer is a woman.
Speaker 4 (17:29):
Is that correct?
Speaker 3 (17:31):
Yes, they have gender swapped the Silver Surfer. They're basing
her on a very very obscure character that was only
in like one or two books. And yeah, I'm just
glad they didn't go with the trans Tastic four, which
I'm sure was the original the original pitch where they
were just going to trans all the Fantastic Four, but
(17:53):
at least they didn't do that.
Speaker 2 (17:54):
So okay, So every time Woke does a Marvel does
a woke movie. That's funny that I said that backwards.
Every time Marvel does a woke movie, it seems to fail.
Other than Black Panther, which wasn't really woke, it just
had a lot of black actors in it.
Speaker 4 (18:07):
Captain Marvel sucked. The Marvel sucked.
Speaker 2 (18:11):
We all remember what happened when they did the Star
Wars prequels.
Speaker 4 (18:14):
It's the same people. What are they gonna learn if
this doesn't work?
Speaker 3 (18:19):
It doesn't work, And I mean just the fact that
Pedro Pascal is in it should be a warning sign.
He's in most of the things that they try to wokeify.
But like Exo Hunter said in Crimson Tide, everybody who
reads comic books knows that the Kirby's silver Surfer is
the only true silver surfer. We are not going to
(18:42):
accept their gender swap surfer. So good luck with that, Marvel,
good luck with that Disney, but you might have another
flop income.
Speaker 4 (18:52):
Okay, So let me get this straight.
Speaker 2 (18:53):
Pedro Pascal ruins every Marvel movie, every Disney film that
he's in. But somehow I gotta feel I haven't watch
the new season. I guess it's just debuted. The Last
of Us not terrible?
Speaker 4 (19:03):
Right is that? Have you looked at that yet? That
it's back? Right now?
Speaker 2 (19:06):
That HBO show about the post apocalyptic world. Bella Ramsey's
in it as of they them, And somehow it's actually
not terrible despite all the things I just said about it.
Speaker 3 (19:16):
How connected are you to the Pedro Pascal character?
Speaker 6 (19:19):
Though?
Speaker 4 (19:20):
Oh that's interesting? Why would you ask that?
Speaker 6 (19:23):
I'm just asking say no more?
Speaker 2 (19:25):
Yeah, no spoiler alerts there? All right, Well, I'm gonna
take a look at that. Okay, So let's talk. You
are a comedian, let's talk a little bit about this.
Seth Rogan. I'm so old I can remember when Seth
Rogan was funny and entertaining, back before he got real.
Like so many other people in Hollywood, they just want
you to hate them. Seth Rogan is apparently making news
(19:46):
headlines today because he had some Trump jokes that were
edited out of an award show broadcast and I breakthrough
prize ceremony this one?
Speaker 4 (19:56):
What even was this? I'd never heard of this, never
heard of it either.
Speaker 3 (20:01):
I think The only reason that it's getting any press
is because of this alleged controversy about these jokes being cut.
But number one, they might have been cut for you know,
time or editing reasons. And number two, they might have
been cut just because people are tired of the endless,
tiresome Hackney played out be as Trump jokes.
Speaker 6 (20:25):
It's so old.
Speaker 3 (20:27):
You know, I'm doing a lot of comedy right now,
and it's just over and over. You see the same
tired Trump jokes, and now of course with RFK as well,
but not near as much as I mean, they've been
doing Trump jokes now for ten years and it's just like,
oh my.
Speaker 6 (20:44):
God, guys get a new topic.
Speaker 3 (20:46):
So, especially somebody like Rogan, who's supposed to be, you know,
the highest level of comedic talent, you can't come up
with anything else other than just another we and tired
Trump joke. It's it's ridiculous. People are tired of it.
Speaker 4 (21:05):
You know. I love comedy.
Speaker 2 (21:06):
I'm hosting a comedy tour this weekend with Chad Prather
and Jesse Peyton in New Orleans at Southport Hall Friday
night and then Saturday night we're gonna be at Bruski's
in Hattiesburg, and I just wanted to plug that real
quick before I point out to me the funniest thing
has I love South Park. I've always thought that South
Park was the funniest thing on earth as a child.
(21:27):
As an adult, they won't do Trump humor. And it's
not like they think Trump's sacred or they like them
too much. They won't do Trump humor for the exact
reason you just described, Tim. They think it's two played out.
It's the same dumb joke everyone else is doing. Uh,
they're right, I mean, of course they are. It's just
lazy humor at this point, isn't it.
Speaker 3 (21:47):
Yeah, something something Russia, something something orange something something you know,
hair piece.
Speaker 6 (21:54):
Uh, it's it's.
Speaker 3 (21:56):
Just too easy, too played out, and everybody's been doing
it for you know.
Speaker 6 (22:00):
That's one thing that I did early on.
Speaker 3 (22:03):
I said I'm not going to do a bunch of
Trump jokes like everybody else, And that's kind of paid
off for me. I do a bad Trump impression now,
but I figured I might as well pick it up
since he's around for another four years.
Speaker 2 (22:14):
Okay, Well, you know who's great at it, Shane Gillis.
You know he's the one guy. When he does it,
I think it's actually very funny. But part of that
is because he makes for the liberals and.
Speaker 4 (22:23):
Concerts where else.
Speaker 3 (22:25):
That's where SNL really messed up. I mean, I don't
really watch sn L, but I've seen the guy they
have doing Trump, and he's not as good as Shane Gillis.
And because they got so scary when they originally hired
Shane Gillis and then fired him like three days later,
they really did a disservice to themselves. You know, he's
one of the funniest Trump impersonators that's around.
Speaker 6 (22:46):
So they really messed up.
Speaker 4 (22:47):
All right, A little good news before we leave.
Speaker 2 (22:49):
Notable Democrat long lifetime, long, long time Democrat party supporters
Harvey Weinstein and P Diddy are both in the news
right now for similar reasons. Harvey Wan Einstein's lawyers yesterday
the disgraced Hollywood movie mogul as asking for their client
to be moved to a hospital during his retrial on
rape charges. He says he's being mistreated in New York's
(23:11):
notorious Rikers Island. Meanwhile, P Diddy's lawyers they're asking for
a two month delay of his May fifth sex trafficking trial.
They say they need more time to prepare their case.
They want a delay the trial to address some issues.
It happened during a recent hearing. YadA YadA YadA. Don't
you feel sorry for P Diddy and Harvey Weinstein?
Speaker 3 (23:31):
Tim, No, I don't feel sorry for him at all.
I get that their lawyers have to do everything they
can to help their clients out, but.
Speaker 6 (23:43):
Can't feel sorry for.
Speaker 3 (23:44):
Monsters like that. And as I've said multiple times, those
are only two of the many, many monsters that we have,
and not only film but also the music industry and
entertainment in general. So as much as I understand what
their lawyers are doing, and you know, everybody deserves due
(24:05):
process and whatever, hopefully the cases moved swiftly and hopefully
the punishment fits the crime, is all I can say.
Speaker 2 (24:17):
Yeah, And that's weird How P Diddy was such good
friends with Obama and Harvey was such good friends with
Hillary Clinton, and yet none of them are coming to
the defense of their longtime friends and political supporters.
Speaker 4 (24:28):
Weird.
Speaker 3 (24:28):
Huh, Well, you just said to look at this last
presidential campaign we had, and look at all the Diddy
adjacent or Diddy friends. They were coming out in support
of Kamala Harris to let us know which side of
the aisle at particular monstrosity landed on Wow.
