Speaker 1 (00:00):
Jack gannon government sucks. The suit of having radio is DeLux.
Liberty and freedom will make you smile. Of a suit
of having and us on your radio toel justice, cheeseburg
is a liberty rise at food.
Speaker 2 (00:20):
Congressman Tony Gonzalez is under investigation by the House Ethics
Committee because he cheated on his wife with one of
his staff members and then that staff member killed herself.
Speaker 3 (00:37):
Wow, that is crazy.
Speaker 2 (00:40):
I can't believe the House still has an ethics committee. Hi, everybody,
thanks for joining us. My guest at the bottom of
the hour here is gonna be Matthew Wilshire, local neo
KHN political strategist. A lot of our listeners are Matt
at Matt because yesterday he published an article in the
Houston Chronicle calling Texas primary voters a bunch of weirdo
and freaks. And he's going to be here shortly, so
(01:03):
we will talk about that stick around.
Speaker 3 (01:06):
We will get to it shortly.
Speaker 2 (01:08):
Now, with all that being said, before we get to
anything else, let me just say there's a lot happening
today and I just can't I always feel like it's
important to start the show with a barometric reading of
what's happening in America. Yes, I will be at Southern
Rhythm tomorrow night in denhim Spring Saturday night. Come see
us do stand up comedy right outside of Baton Rouge.
(01:29):
Tickets available now. Jesse Isfunny dot com or Southern Rhythm
is the name of the venue, Southern Rhythm. It's that
place right outside of Baton Rouge where they always have
midget wrestling.
Speaker 1 (01:39):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (01:39):
I think that's how Jesse knows the owners. I don't
know anyway.
Speaker 2 (01:41):
Breitbart dot com today, reporting on a record number of
thirty eight percent said they like the idea of America
discarding capitalism for socialism. This is according to a Fox
News poll. Forty nine percent of registered voters polled said
capitalism is not working well or it doesn't work at all.
And I'll bet they said that on a thousand dollars
(02:02):
iPhone after pausing Netflix on their sixty five inch TV.
Speaker 3 (02:06):
While waiting for their daily door dash delivery.
Speaker 2 (02:09):
Guys, we live in a country that's so prosperous, so comfortable,
so convenient, so cozy, and above all, so narcissistic that
ignorant people feel the need to invent problems and crises.
Speaker 3 (02:23):
Listen to this.
Speaker 2 (02:24):
The latest Fox News survey released Thursday, finds a record
thirty eight percent think it would be a good thing
for the US to move away from capitalism. The shift
may be tied to divided views on capitalism itself. Voters
are split over whether capitalism is working. This is nothing
less than a toxic mix of entitlement and ignorance. Amless,
(02:46):
your goal is to see hundreds of millions of people
murdered and starved and oppressed. Socialism has never worked. Meanwhile,
capitalism has been an unqualified success. Look around, dummies, We've
ended p Yeah. Sure, some people might still qualify as poor.
But America's poor have iPhones and air conditioning and healthcare
(03:06):
and central heating. They have an obesity problem. We have
fat poor people in this country. You know how crazy
that is. Our poor people have access to the Internet
and microwave ovens and massive TVs.
Speaker 3 (03:19):
The modern day poor in America live like kings.
Speaker 2 (03:22):
They live better than the top one percent throughout ninety
nine percent of human history. This obviously does not include
the homeless, but they're a separate problem, involving addiction and
mental illness. In a lot of cases, homelessness is a choice. Sorry,
you don't like it, Come down here and fight me.
Let me clear things up for you, and this will
explain a lot of it. Democrat women seventy nine percent
(03:44):
and democrats under forty five seventy two percent are those
most likely to give up poor marks to give it
poor mark capitalism.
Speaker 3 (03:50):
They don't like capitalism.
Speaker 2 (03:53):
How about the most of those seventy nine percent of
leftist women whining about capitalism not working for them are
just people who want more ink.
Speaker 3 (04:00):
They deserve more just because they're so awesome.
Speaker 2 (04:04):
Our culture here in America has spent decades poisoning women
with this toxic nonsense that they deserve it all just
because they do because you're a queen. Slay queen. Meanwhile,
men are told to be understanding and patient. We're required
to protect and provide above all, we are shamed into
ignoring our masculine nature. Meanwhile, women are told that they're
(04:27):
perfect just the way they are, and there's no need to.
Speaker 3 (04:30):
Improve or better yourselves.
Speaker 2 (04:32):
It should all come to them on a silver platter
with zero effort. The closest America has to full blown
socialism can be found in the democrat run cities and
states that are losing their populations. Why is everybody leaving California?
Why is everybody moving on to Chicago? They get what
they want and then like a virus, they flee and
(04:53):
they infect the other places that are working and try
to take the problems from California, from Chicago, from New
York City and destroy Tennessee, Texas, Arizona, and Florida.
Speaker 3 (05:04):
Imagine that to the government.
Speaker 2 (05:07):
I started listening to the Jews Proceeds of Happiness Radio
with Cana Webster Judio aka producer Kenny President Trump. I
don't love this. I do not love this. My friends.
Trump says he wants to pick Iran's next supreme leader.
So it sounds like Marco Rubio is about to get
(05:28):
yet another job assignment that'll be great. He can't you know,
he can't do Christy Nome's old job because I don't
think he wants to sleep with Corey Lewandowski. Joining me
shortly in the studio here is going to be Matthew
will Shire, local neo con strategist. I know a lot
of you are mat at Matt. You don't like man.
People are always weird about like why do you like Matt?
(05:49):
Why do you like Matt will Shire? For me, he's
a friend. I don't agree with a lot of Matt's
political beliefs. He's joining me in the studio. Shortly he
wrote this article in the Houston Chronicle where he said
that some of you Texas Republican primary voters are weirdos
and what was it?
Speaker 3 (06:04):
What was the other thing there?
Speaker 1 (06:06):
Weird?
Speaker 2 (06:07):
He said, weirdos and idiots. He's in the studio now.
But before we get to any of it, and I'm
gonna address why you may or may not be weirdos
or idiots.
Speaker 3 (06:13):
So that's the that's the tea stick around for that.
Speaker 2 (06:16):
But before we get to any of that, can we
start off with this Texas politics right now? It's like
a family barbecue where two uncles are arm wrestling over
the last ribi and then the whole table's about to
flip over. People are losing their minds. We just had
this big primary March third. Cornin eked out forty three percent,
spent almost over one hundred million. I feel like every
time we turn around, the numbers higher. I thought it
(06:37):
was seventy million, then it was one hundred million. Now
it's a gajillion dollars. Paxton's spent four million, they're forty
three percent, forty one percent. Whether you like Cornin or Packston,
you got a myth that's concerning nobody hit fifty percent.
SAPAM made twenty six runoff or will there be a runoff?
Now there's a rumor that Trump's working out a deal
with Paxton, and Paxton might drop out in order to
(07:00):
get the Save Act or the Filibuster over it. Firstly,
I actually think we should keep the filibuster. But that's
of all my unpopular opinions. We'll save that one for
another day. Now, with all that being said, this could
be a very costly primary over one hundred and twenty
five the runoff, that is to say, one hundred and
twenty five million dollars in ads dumped like confetti at
a bad wedding, Corny's side, burning through seventy million, Just
(07:23):
a lot of money, guys. And then Trump has made
a crystal clear he does not want this dragging on.
They're taking this money out of the National Senate Committee,
the Senate Leadership Fund. The second this happened, the second
it was over, you saw the what's the guy's name, Alex,
the head of the National leader I don't know him personally,
basically the super pac for Thune and Tim Scott and
(07:44):
John Cornyn, and they're out making fun of Wesley Hunt
the morning after published someone it wass as if they'd
written it already.
Speaker 3 (07:51):
They're like, take that, Wesley Hunt, You're a loser.
Speaker 2 (07:53):
Clearly they didn't want those fifteen percent of people to
vote for cornn or they wouldn't have published that. But
do they know something we don't know. So Trump's made
a crystal clear he doesn't want this to go on anymore.
He said this must stop. Now, we have to win
in November. Trump's not subtle. He's yelling from the rooftops
that this runoff's bad for business, it's bad for unity,
it's bad for keeping the Senate red and his agenda rolling.
(08:14):
We're probably gonna lose the House. Historically that seems to happen,
it's not Look, I'm a realist here. I'm not here
to lie to you guys or tell you what you
want to hear. I'm here to tell you the truth.
We may lose the House. If we also lose the Senate,
they're going to impeach Trump and remove him from office.
So it's time to be pragmatic guys. I like Ken Paxton.
I don't care about what if you can't explain his
(08:37):
scandals out loud to a guy with a vaccine injury
whose wife lost her job because she didn't adhere to
a COVID mandate. And they see Paxton suing Pfizer and
you know, different hospitals where doctor Mary Bowden worked at.
They're not going to care what Paxton scan, what happened
with his marriage. They don't care. Paxton's a fighter. He
sued the hell out a big tech and Pfizer in
(08:57):
the Colony Ridge crooks real results or at least close
to results, or at least someone tried. But the Senate
is never going to confirm him to be the age,
or so we've been told, so forget that. They'd be
like hurting cats through a fireworks factory. He's a little
too bulldog. The Dems are squishy, the Republicans are squishy.
They're not going to confirm him. So here's the pragmatic play.
(09:19):
Trump could fire Bondy. Sorry, if you guys are one
of the people, you're one of the nine or ten
people left that like the woman who protected the job
the Jeffrey Epstein customers, I don't know why you'd want
her to stick around, get rid of her. Corny's got
to go somewhere, he has to. We can either have
an expensive runoff or Paxton could drop out. I don't
(09:40):
want that, or and follow me here. You may not
like this idea, but I'm being mister pragmatic today. What
if we replace Pam Bondi with Corny? But hang on, stop,
hang on, listen, hear me out. Corny is going to
coast right through the Senate confirmation. There will be nothing
controversial about that. Mar Kurubio got every vote when he
(10:01):
was nominated to be Secretary of State. With the amount
of time Cornyn spent in the Senate, do you think
that's gonna get held up?
Speaker 3 (10:07):
Not at all.
Speaker 2 (10:08):
He coasts right into the attorney general position. No problem there.
Then Paxton wins the Senate race. We've been told over
and over again Paxton can't win in a general election.
Speaker 3 (10:16):
He's won every.
Speaker 2 (10:17):
Time, He's never lost a he's never lost a runoff,
He's never lost. I don't think he's ever lost in
the general election as he unless he ran for something
I wasn't aware of. So with that being said, you
don't like Paxton, couldn't be worse than Bondy. Pam Bondy
protected pedophiles. I don't know what to I don't like
Pam Bondy at all. I don't know any neo khn's
and conservatives and populists and libertarians don't agree on much,
(10:39):
but they all seem to be sick of Pam Bondy
at this point. So let's say that happens. Then Trump
endorses Paxton, right, tells corn Congratulations, Now you're the attorney general.
Cornin gets a cool new title, one more thing, one
more accolade he could put on his resume before he retires.
The guy's at gajillion years old. He's the geriatric of Jeriat.
He's the Joe Biden of the republic Could Party. This
(11:01):
is my idea. Trump gets his win in November. Locked
agendas protected. It continues the tradition of having an attorney general.
No one's really passionate about Jeff Sessions, Bill Barr, Pam Bondi,
John Cornyn. Fine, and no more wasting energy on Texas
drama where we could be spending that money in I
don't know. The Georgia Senate general election, the Carolinas, the Michigans,
(11:24):
the Ohios, the Michigans, the Michigan Well there's really two Michigans, right,
because there's Michigan and then there's deer Bornistan. And anyway,
it's not poetic, it's not pure, but in this circus,
it's a move that stops the bleeding. Trump doesn't want
to run off. He has been loud and proud about that.
We can make this happen and the circus make the
twenty twenty six general election great again. That's my idea.
(11:44):
That's Kenny Webster's idea. Go ahead and hate on me,
joining me now. Before we even get to the op ed,
he wrote that is upset every Republican in Houston, Texas
this week. Whoa, whoa, Matt, whoa. I just put you
on camera. This is do you know you look half
Puerto Rican?
Speaker 3 (12:00):
You know, I get that I've been.
Speaker 2 (12:03):
Why did you decide to dress up today like the
attorney for a drug smuggling cartel.
Speaker 3 (12:08):
No. I thought that we were going to church after this,
and uh, and I thought that I would show the
Lord the proper respect. But uh, anyway, I think that
we might have to go to go to church together
with each other on Sunday.
Speaker 2 (12:19):
You know, I think you don't think the Lord likes
my chest hair. I'm wearying a crucifix.
Speaker 3 (12:24):
Here, Kenny, I gotta say that rant. You know that
I wasn't expecting to have to add you in to
my list of idiots and weirdos. But that rant kind
of kind of makes me wonder whether I should.
Speaker 2 (12:34):
All right, what do you not like about it? Do
you want an expensive runoff? You want Paxton to drop out?
Speaker 3 (12:39):
I think that Paxton should drop out for the exact
same reason that Tony Gonzalez has dropped out. Okay, that
he is unfit morally. He texted a one out of
two in the morning about antal side and she killed
herself because he he is unfit morally to be a
leader of this nation. His daughters don't think so, his
family doesn't think so. Man, that must have been, you know,
(13:00):
so so low to go to your children and say
I need you to cover for me for cheating on
your mother.
Speaker 2 (13:07):
But they didn't seem to mind. They seem like they
meant it. Do you think that what you think he's
got some dirt on them.
Speaker 3 (13:12):
You seem to think that political advertising is always the truth.
Speaker 2 (13:16):
Well, well, the Political Advertiser's cornin has been running say
that Lesley Hunt is a rhino who was a snake
that voted for Hillary or something like that.
Speaker 3 (13:24):
I'm not going to go and attack Wesley. I think
that you know that the primary is over, the runoff
is now, and so I'm I'll focus on Cornan and
Paxton right now. And Paxton is not fit for the job.
I think that the Trouton administration recognizes that he is
not fit for the job. And you know when you
when you mentioned, oh, well, Ken Paxton has never lost
(13:45):
a runoff. John Cornyn has never lost an election. Period.
Has Paxton ever lost an election? No, he hasn't. But
this isn't that? What isn't that why it makes this
so interesting? But but your comment was that he'd never
he'd never lost a runoff. The but but.
Speaker 2 (13:59):
Let's go into the well, hang on, I want to
back up on that. Yeah, because that's my thing, the
like Tony Gonzalez. But I'm bumping the argument that you
almost sped up my coffee.
Speaker 3 (14:11):
Thank you.
Speaker 2 (14:12):
The argument that Neil cons are making is we can't
have Ken Paxton the general election because they'll lose to
James Taler.
Speaker 3 (14:18):
And and here's the math on that. Every time that
Ken Paxson has been on the ballot, he has been
the lowest statewide vote getter for Republicans. What does that mean?
So there are there are local candidates, there are statewide candidates.
They're national candidates. But you don't vote nationwide. You vote
with your state for the for the president. And so
(14:39):
you look at the state wide vote getters, you know,
and so your you know, abbot is on there, and
you know, and Dan Patrick and et cetera. Every single
time Ken Paxton has two hundred thousand votes fewer than
the top of the ticket. We're saying is the top
of the ticket. So we are going to have a problem.
Speaker 2 (14:58):
So I heard this argument yesterday from some woman named Morgan,
who is an Austin Republican. She used to be an
NESSAC member. She's not a fan of this woman, but
she's trying to make the argument. R She's like, you know,
back in twenty twenty, Cornying got more votes than Trump did,
thank you, that's why we need to close the primary.
Speaker 3 (15:15):
A bunch of Biden voters like Corny. But go back
a little bit further, go back to twenty sixteen with
that argument.
Speaker 2 (15:22):
We have to break care real quickly. So I just
want to wrap this up, get you on record. You
do not want Corny to be the Attorney General of America.
That's what you're saying.
Speaker 3 (15:29):
I want him to remain senator, a senator of the
United States.
Speaker 2 (15:33):
So I just want to keep it on the record here.
Matt Willshire wants Pam Bondy, the woman who protected the
Epstein John's, to remain attorney general.
Speaker 3 (15:40):
That's what you're saying. Absolutely not.
Speaker 2 (15:43):
It's never too early to learn that the government is
a greedy piglet that suckles on a taxpayer's teat until
they have sore, chapped nipples.
Speaker 3 (15:52):
The Pursuit of Happiness Radio on AM nine fifty KPRC.
Speaker 2 (15:58):
I got to make a couple of points. First, let
me get your article on the screen. Hi, everybody, I'm
Kenny Webster. Can I just for those of you that
don't know if you never watched this show before, well
I don't know how you got here, but welcome. It's
good to be here. Today is National Employee Appreciation Day.
Unless your name is Christinome, it's not not for her. No, Unfortunately,
(16:19):
you know what's interesting about this, It's great. I mean,
I like Christy. I think she's prettier than Mark Wayne,
and she has an easier name Matthew well Shire. But
you know what I like about christin home she looks
beautiful on a horse. We gave her two hundred million dollars.
We're surprised she spent it on a vanity project. She's
a beautiful woman. Of course she did. But now she
have more time to spend with her dog.
Speaker 3 (16:39):
Right, I mean she'll just spend the rest of her
career putting down dogs. No, it'll be real sad.
Speaker 2 (16:44):
You know it's odd about that. Wouldn't you think the
Haitian migrants would like her? Considering do you know what
I mean?
Speaker 3 (16:49):
Like all the dogs in this country, all the dog
lovers in this country are thrilled today. How did she
really think that telling people, yes, I shot my dog
was a good pr move.
Speaker 2 (17:02):
Okay, I don't dislike Christy, no, but I'll admit she's
not perfect. Here's what I think happened. For those that
don't remember where that little joke originated from, it was
in a book. Yeah, and I bet she never read
the book. I think that she read the book.
Speaker 3 (17:14):
I think that what she thought was that it came
across as tough and Trump. You know, she's she's trying
to get Trump's attention. And Trump is not a dog lover.
He's the first president since like Teddy Roosevelt to not
have a pet. Dude, I know, I don't get it either. Well,
I mean, look what it is. He's got a pet.
Speaker 2 (17:35):
I mean he's got Marco Rubio. I thought you were
going to say jd Vance that's unfair that they pick
up jad Vance is an intellectual. I don't know what
Marco does, but he's Uh, Marco is effective.
Speaker 3 (17:48):
And Jade Vance is you know, Tucker Carlson's pet, you know,
pet puppet.
Speaker 2 (17:53):
All right, let's talk about your article for a second.
For those of you just turning on the radio, my
guest right now is Matthew will Shier is a big
fan of guys like John Cornyn, Uh, Dan Crenshaw. I
suppose you probably love Lindsay Graham is probably one of
your people.
Speaker 3 (18:08):
I like it when Lindsay Graham is uh is advocating
for American supremacy. Sure ha, my name is Lindsay.
Speaker 2 (18:15):
What we got to do is get all the Libby
and Brown boys, bring them back here. To America, grease
them up and oil them up because it's tough over them.
Speaker 3 (18:22):
Have you ever watched the show Alpha House? Okay, so
it's I think it's on Amazon Prime. It is. It's
John Goodman and a few others, and it's a two
seasons of a TV show where it's four US senators
all living in a house together and it's like a
frat house. And there's this guy that is, you know,
essentially great essentially Lindsey Graham, and another guy who is
(18:46):
essentially Marco Rubio living in this house. And it is hilarious.
And so you got John Goodman, Clark Johnson. Oh, they
got a black guy at it. I like that. Matt
molloy is Matt mccoey. I can this show. He'd be
good in there anyway. It's a funny show.
Speaker 2 (19:04):
HBO presents The Matt mkoyac Show, sponsored by Venmo.
Speaker 3 (19:09):
No, you don't want to be on camera, you know.
I don't want to camera. Oh I talk about that.
I have no comment. I don't know what you're talking about.
Speaker 2 (19:16):
All right? Can we talk about your articles? S? Matt
and I are friends. I'm a Catholic, he's a Catholic.
We both have become over the years, we both have
united and worked hard together to mobilize young conservatives against
the local progressive movement here in Houston state politics. That
gets a little complicated national politics, man and I don't
necessarily agree on everything. I often make the point when
(19:37):
people ask why are you friends with Matt well Scheire,
And I was like a few reasons. Number one, God
before politics, comedy before. For me, it's God comedy. Politics.
Politics is third, maybe even fourth, if there's good barbecue
for lunch. But you know, local politics we can make
so much more of a difference than we can on
a national level. I'm not going to stop the war
and Iran, you think anyone's listening to me. I'm not
(19:58):
going to be able to secure the border or open
the border or whatever. But I bet if me and
Matt and a handful of other people teamed up, we
could replace somebody in the commissioner's court. You know, we
could get a better city council man. And so that's
the reason why I'm friends with guys like Matt Wellshire
and I cause.
Speaker 3 (20:12):
You get people asking me the same thing, why are
you friends with Kenny when he's so critical of the
people that you're supportive of. And I say, similar to
that God country family and my friends or my family.
I mean there it is. You can have friends that
you disagree with, otherwise they're boring friends.
Speaker 2 (20:27):
Yeah, I would agree with that. Plus also in a photo,
I always look really handsome next to you. I don't
know why that is.
Speaker 3 (20:33):
Yeah, I look like a team of Ted Cruz. That's
the unfortunate part, dude.
Speaker 2 (20:38):
True story about Matt When Facebook started using this algorithm
where it would look at people's photos and try to
tag them, like, oh, here's a photo of you and
this guy together.
Speaker 3 (20:48):
That's your coworker.
Speaker 2 (20:49):
We'll alert his Facebook accounts so he can have the
photo added to his newsfeed. When people post photos of
Ted Cruz, more than once it thought it was you.
Speaker 3 (20:58):
Right, Yeah. It would always auto tag me, and so
it became this running joke where on my birthday people
would say, oh, here's my favorite photo of me with Matt,
and it was just you know, it was a photo
of them with Ted Cruise. All right, I got one
for you right now, are you right? I saw this.
Speaker 2 (21:14):
For those that don't know, we're looking at a photo
right now in the studio of James Tallerco and this
guy named what is his name, britt Brillo.
Speaker 3 (21:24):
Or something like that. I don't know.
Speaker 2 (21:25):
There's this young kid who wants to be the new
turning Point USA Charlie Kirk guy. So he like got
his dad to pay for a private jet and he
started flying around the country. Maybe he's a nice kid.
I have no idea. I don't know him, but he
looks exactly like James Tallerco. And now that I've seen
this photo, I'll never think that they're two different.
Speaker 3 (21:42):
But I I the better one that I saw was
James tall Erico photo next to Obama's presidential portrait, and
they I mean, he just looks like a wider version
of Obama. You know.
Speaker 2 (21:53):
You know the thing about James Tallerco is it's really
handsome and just like me, he supports trans what TRANS?
Speaker 3 (22:00):
I like James. He's a good guy. So you brought
me on to talk about these two articles you.
Speaker 2 (22:05):
I'm gonna let you talk uninterrupted for a minute about
your article.
Speaker 3 (22:08):
Let's start off with this.
Speaker 2 (22:09):
You have called local uh, well, state, what did you
call them? Fervent idiots and weirdos for electing Steve Touth
instead of Dan Crenshaw.
Speaker 3 (22:19):
Let's see, I'm gonna give you. I'm gonna give you
three minutes. Okay, I'll be I'll be as quick as
I can on this. I'm telling you what that that quote,
you know, where I say I'm calling people fervent idiots
and weirdos is actually a reference to the previous last
week's UH Houston Chronicle op ed in which I was
talking about, don't let idiots and weirdos rule over you.
The fact is is that, sorry, did we did we
(22:41):
let that? Really? I think that we did. I think
that we did let idiots and weirdos rule over us.
And I'll and I'll make the argument as to why. Unfortunately,
when we are looking at at primary voter turnout, it's
really low. It's really low, you know. So, uh, there
are about five hundred thousand registered voters and in Congressional
(23:01):
District two and thirty seven thousand of them voted for
Steve Toath. So, you know, seven and a half percent
of the registered voters decided that they wanted Steve Toath
as the as their Republican nominee who will almost certainly
be their next representative. What that means is that the
vast majority of people because they don't see voting in
(23:23):
a primary as an integral part of their civic duty.
That means that they don't have a say in it.
The number of times over the years where people will
call me, you know, right before general election and be like,
these candidates, all the candidates on the ballot are awfully
Why are these And I'll be like, did you vote
in the primary? And They'll be like, no, I didn't
vote in the primary. I didn't have time for that.
(23:44):
I'm like, then you don't get to complain. You don't
get to complain that you don't like the candidates if
you didn't vote in the primary. Not many people vote
in the primary, and unfortunately, the people who do vote
in the primary are oftentimes weirdos. So two weeks ago,
I spent some time over at the at two polling
locations in Harris County. Now, let's be clear, I'm not
(24:06):
saying that everyone that votes in a primary is a weirdo.
I'm saying that the weirdos have a disproportionate a disproportionate
amount of the vote because it's such a low amount.
If one percent of the population are weirdos, let's just
say that it's one percent. I think it's higher. But
let's say that it's one percent and they always vote,
(24:26):
they you know, and and sixty percent of the people
or fifty percent of the people show up to vote,
then they only represent two percent of the total turnout.
But if ten percent of the people show up to vote,
then that one percent represents ten percent of the people
that showed up to vote. And that's It's just this
mathematical fact that if the weirdos always vote, then the
(24:47):
weirdos have a disproportionate effect on primaries. And why do
I call these people weirdos? When I was over at
one of the polling locations, different polling locations, I was
out there handing out literature or for my friend Dan,
And you know what, I like to connect with the
other pole greaders, And honestly, some of the some of
toasts pole greaders were perfectly fine. There was this one
(25:09):
guy that I had a really nice conversation, older gentleman,
don't remember his name, very nice conversation with. There was
another guy who was from originally from Canada, great conversation with.
Speaker 2 (25:19):
Him, Canadian, Canadian, Canadian.
Speaker 3 (25:25):
No. But there were four different people all handing out
Steve toaf literature. Out of the nine that I interacted
with who were pushing really weird things, two of them
told me that nine to eleven was an inside job. Now,
let's be clear, my dad worked in the World Trade
Center both when it was bombed in on nine to eleven.
Speaker 2 (25:43):
I don't I had family there too, and I know
it wasn't an inside job.
Speaker 3 (25:47):
I do not put up with people telling me that
it was an inside job either. It was obviously the
Jews go on. I think it was pretty obviously continuing.
So we So two out of nine that I was
interacting with were saying that nine to eleven was an
inside job. Another one told me that the voting booths
(26:09):
in Montgomery County were being rigged by the Democrats in
Montgomery County via wi FI. And another one told me
that the only reason that the war in Ukraine was
continuing is because of cash payments to Zelensky. And here's
the thing. You can debate what American policy should have
(26:29):
been after nine to eleven. You can debate what the
best form of voting would be. You can debate what
we should do in Ukraine. Bottomlind me. But those are
all weird positions held by idiots. It sounds like what.
Speaker 2 (26:41):
You're saying is this is why Crenshaw lost because weirdos
vote in normal people don't.
Speaker 3 (26:46):
I think that low primary turnout. Dan does extremely well
in generals and does a lot worse in partisan primaries.
All right, let's talk about that.
Speaker 2 (26:54):
In twenty eighteen when he was first elected, your boy
Dan got twenty thousand votes. In twenty twenty six, he
got twenty six thousand votes. Right, So it's sexually more
more people came out in the election where he lost
than one where he won.
Speaker 3 (27:08):
Matt, Well, so are you talking about the primary in
we're talking about the prime. We were talking about the
primary twenty eighteen, there were nine candidates, uh, and he
won that vote. He won that election by one hundred
and fifty five VU. And this time there were what
three or four or something? There was there were effectively
two okay, well the other the other two there were
effectively too. Is Kathy Wall. Hi, I'm Kathy Wall I'm
(27:28):
Texas tough. No. No. In twenty eighteen, there were, uh,
there were nine candidates, and there were uh there were okay,
there were four that got.
Speaker 2 (27:38):
Over at least minimum five percent or something semantics, So
more people voted in this round. Okay, I get your point.
There were more options in but with more options, you
think more people would have come out and voted. They didn't. Uh,
Less people came out and voted it. But Crenshaw still
made it. And Crenshaw got elected every time, right up
twenty eighteen, two thousand, twenty twenty two, twenty twenty four.
(28:00):
In twenty twenty six he finally lost. So is all
those same people? I think that it was all the
same people voting and everything for At the very least,
it was most of the same people in those primaries.
Speaker 3 (28:10):
It wasn't the same people keeping in mind to keep it.
It's a different distract the Trump a different district.
Speaker 2 (28:15):
Who was the keynote speaker at the Montgomery County Trump
Ragan dinner, Matt, I know that there are hundreds of
people in this room. They all voted in the primary
in twenty eighteen, they voted for Crenshaw. In twenty twenty six,
they didn't. Are they all wrong? Did they become weirdos
that they used to be normal?
Speaker 1 (28:30):
No?
Speaker 3 (28:30):
No, no, I'm my point of the idiots and weirdos comment.
Speaker 2 (28:33):
Okay, because simply that's fine. If they're mad about it,
it's you start your card. If they want to be
mad about it, then you know it's because they can't
do math. So maybe they're approving my point that they're idiots,
but no, no, the bottom line is that if one
percent of idiots and weirdos always vote, they have a
disproportionate impact when ten percent of the people vote versus
(28:56):
one fifty percent of the people vote.
Speaker 3 (28:57):
That's just math. There's there's no there.
Speaker 2 (29:01):
Okay, you know you're calling people weirdos right now, but
you are wearing two different patterns on your tie and
your shirt, and.
Speaker 3 (29:07):
Some people might say that that makes you a weirdo.
Listening to the Pursuit of Happiness radio, I guess it's
not available in Canada.
Speaker 2 (29:15):
All right, this is just in Dorrito's with protein has
hit the store shelves. So if you're a stoner who
wants to build muscle mass, you have some seriously conflicting goals.
I don't really see how those two things are. They
don't work together. Hi, everybody, welcome back from break. It's
not all bad news for neo cons and populists and
(29:36):
right wingers and conservative there's one thing that I bet
we all agree on decent people. Maybe you don't like
Dan Crenshaw, maybe you do like them. Maybe you don't
like Steve Telleth. Maybe if Paxton Wesley Hunt, maybe you
find whatever the case may be. I think one thing
we probably all agree on is that most of us
are not big fans of Tony Gonzalez. Tony Gonzalez is
(30:00):
the lawmaker from South Texas. My buddy Tony Ortiz, who
current Revolt dot Com broke this story six seven months
ago about how Tony Gonzalez, his staff member, committed suicide
by self immolation after she was effectively pressured by her
boss into having sex with the guy, and nobody believed
it at the time. We had Washington insiders telling us, Kenny,
(30:21):
don't read that story on the radio. You guys are
on a lot of radio stations. You're gonna get sued.
They're gonna take you off the air. They're gonna take
your bulldog away and your house and all your skateboards
and your synthesizers. And we read the story anyway on
the air, and months later it turned out we were correct.
Tony Gonzalez is now left office. He's finally admitted he
cheated on his wife. Matt, I know you left office.
Speaker 3 (30:42):
He dropped out of thank.
Speaker 2 (30:43):
You're right getting I'm getting at him myself. He hasn't
left office, and he probably shouldn't.
Speaker 3 (30:48):
The Republicans have such a narrow majority in the House. Look,
it's unfortunate, but the reality is is that he either
give the Democrats the House or keep Tony there, you know,
without any responsibility other than to show up and vote yes.
All right.
Speaker 2 (31:05):
There is this video from years ago, Matt, what was
this was called what Texas? At the time, we felt
very differently about all these people. At the time, we
thought they were all very similar. I don't like Dan Crenshaw.
I'm not a big fan of his policies. I think
he's kind of an arrogant prick. But at the very
least he's never like bullied a woman into having sex
with him until she reached suicide. So he's not in
(31:29):
politics anymore. At least he's leaving soon. He's featured in
this political ad called Texas Reloaded, where he gets on
a plane and he jumps out of the plane and
I'm just going to fast forward here a little bit.
Speaker 3 (31:39):
It featured at the time a lot of superhero landing.
Speaker 2 (31:42):
We're considered to be upcoming politicians in the Texas Republican Party.
So Dan Crenshaw, he's he's out now. Can I pause
real quick on this? Right here, Wesley Hunt is smoking
a cigar in this scene.
Speaker 3 (31:55):
Okay, is that your cigar? That is my cigar.
Speaker 2 (31:57):
I'm a very big fan of Wesley Hunt. I think
he's a good guy. I think he's a maga populist.
I think he's a friend of the liberty movement. Wesley
is did not win his race, right, So okay, so
that's zero for two here in this commercial.
Speaker 3 (32:10):
Who's that guy August Fluger? So he's still in office.
August Flucker is still in office. If I was August
Flucker right now, I'd be nervous. But we'll leave that alone.
Speaker 2 (32:18):
Moving along here, from August Fluger Wesley Hunt, Dan Crenshaw,
we have now got who's this Beth?
Speaker 3 (32:24):
Where did Beth go? Uhh, that's Genevieve College and Genevieve No,
that's Beth fan Oh that's Beth un done. Yes? Sorry, yeah, yeah,
that's Beth. Sorry. And who's the blonde next door? That's
was the HPD officer who was Dan Crenshaw's bodyguard at events.
And she's married or she got a boyfriend. I don't remember.
It doesn't matter who it is.
Speaker 2 (32:43):
It's not important, all right, Moving along here, Beth's still
in office. If I was Beth, i'd be nervous now.
But that's besides the point.
Speaker 3 (32:49):
So so Beth van Dyne has she calls me broccoli guy,
because why does she call you? Because we were filming
another ad two or three years later, and in the ad,
I played a transgender vegan at a vegan barbecue place
(33:10):
and I throw it. What was it hard for you
to get in the character?
Speaker 2 (33:12):
Mat?
Speaker 3 (33:13):
And I throw a head of broccoli at Dan Crenshaw
and I missed, and I hit Beth van Dine in
the head with a head of broccoli.
Speaker 2 (33:21):
Okay, yes, this is actually very funny to me, all right.
So if I was Beth, i'd be very nervous right now.
And so anyway, poor Wesley, Wesley was great, A big,
big fan of Wesley.
Speaker 3 (33:31):
And now we come to this guy.
Speaker 2 (33:33):
Oh no, if only we knew then what we know now.
For those listening on the radio, they can't see what
we're looking at. It's a very famous political ad from
several years ago which now features Tony Gonzalez, the rising
star from South Texas, and was he already in office
or was he running?
Speaker 3 (33:49):
Though? This was all of these people, it was their
first time running. It was their first time running, and
Dan was going to help him out. Dan did help
him out. We raised them a ton of money off
of this ad. And then so anyway, what became a
Tony Gonzalez? Then where's he? Where's Tony Gonzalez? Now Tony
is not. He has dropped out of the race as
of like eleven o'clock at night last night.
Speaker 2 (34:10):
All right, I'm not going to say anything about who
it is or it's kind of a poorly kept secret
in Texas politics that there may or may not be
other women.
Speaker 3 (34:21):
I don't know. I have no idea.
Speaker 2 (34:22):
I don't personally know Tony Gonzalez. I don't know these people.
But it's a thing, as Current Revolt would say, many
people are.
Speaker 3 (34:27):
Saying, look, look, Tony Gonzalez is not the only It's
it's unfortunate to say, but this is not This is
not the case of just Tony Gonzalez having had an affair.
I remember being in being there while Byron Donald's was
hitting on a Byron Donalds, a married man was hitting
on and took home a political staffer at a party
(34:49):
in he had come to an event in Texas and like,
it was so uncomfortable that I left the party. This
is not this, this is not a unique thing. I
will say. I think that it's a good thing that
Tony Gonzalez has decided that he's not going to continue
his race. Kind of think that, you know, maybe the
(35:10):
same the same logic should be applied to Ken Paxton.
Speaker 2 (35:14):
Let me ask you this, Matt, are you the person
that went home with Byron Donalds?
Speaker 3 (35:18):
Don't lie to us, don't you know? I, uh, I
think I have a joke that I don't want to say.
Oh say it, Oh, Matt, say it, Matt. You know
the dark chocolate is my favorite. Don't say it. Don't
say it, Matt. I don't know anyway.
Speaker 2 (35:34):
And then so if I was bath or whatever, it's like, uh,
what an odd it's weird how this political ad age.
That was my only point of bringing it up here.
I do you think we see more when we see
Wesley Hunt again?
Speaker 3 (35:45):
I got I think so. Look, I think that there
are I think that as the political climate changes, and
a lot of these people, Uh, Wesley, I do believe
Dan are seriousitical thinkers. They are willing to put the
intellectual part of conservatism front and center. And it's one
(36:08):
of the things that I was impressed with about a
lot of the people that were chosen here. You know,
we see Genevieve doing that through AFP and so yes,
I think that there's going to be a further political
career for a lot of these people.
Speaker 2 (36:23):
All right, we've got comments on the screen. I'm going
to read some of them for those of you that
are watching us live on the radio, on social media.
We're going to react to some of these comments. People
are leaving right now. Paul says, whatever Paxton's meritable marital foibles,
he fights the good fights. Texan Republicans have factored in
his failures. It's a compromise, and his mistress has not
(36:43):
immolated herself. Cornyn has proven himself to oppose Trump when
he thinks it will earn him.
Speaker 3 (36:48):
Rhino points. I tend to agree with Paul.
Speaker 2 (36:50):
I mean, Paxton and Wesley Hunt, these guys didn't help
Joe Biden pass a red flag law, so.
Speaker 3 (36:57):
Okay, let's bring that up, because I'm glad you brought
that up. You're thirty seconds guy, because I think that
that bill was going to be passed as a as
a ban on assault weapons. That's what the Democrats were pushing.
And then John Corny comes in and says, how about
we don't do a ban on assault weapons and we
make it it so that states that don't have red
(37:17):
flag laws get mental health care money. And all of
the people that are upset seem to be lying about
what John Cornan voted on.
Speaker 2 (37:25):
I feel like this is a Matt mccayac tweet. This
is a Matt Wilcher statement.
Speaker 3 (37:29):
Okay, Matt Well, allow it all right.
Speaker 2 (37:31):
South Texan says that Matt's tie is loose. He says,
if you're he's saying, I don't put Matt on the
screen while we do this. He said it here. He said,
if you're going to be a pocket square guy, be
that guy.
Speaker 3 (37:43):
Tighten up your time.
Speaker 2 (37:44):
Monsir Country Club Cardifax Maximus says, I'm but heard and
struggling to cope. You people are stupid weirdos. Quote Matt
will Shire, he's quoting you. He says, that's what you
would say.
Speaker 3 (37:55):
I don't think that I would have. I mean, I'm
happy to call that guy that you.
Speaker 2 (38:00):
Joshua Delano says, tiny is reaping the whirldwind? What is
that always talking about Crenshaw? I think, I don't know.
Is that because Dan is a little guy? I think
is what they mean a lot of politicians. Dan is
jacked as well. He's not, but he's not like a
high and I.
Speaker 3 (38:14):
Mean the average height of the American How do you
know Dan Crenshaw's height because he's because he's an inch
teller than me. It's always annoyed me. Yeah, and only
five inches long. Never mind that, all right?
Speaker 2 (38:26):
And then Ronnie on YouTube says, I'm a fan of
Dan Crenshaw's DJ career.
Speaker 3 (38:30):
Will he become so? So let me really quickly mention
because I saw an ad that was put out by
Steve Toath's pack, funded by the guys who who no.
Speaker 2 (38:40):
No, no, we're not We can't end the show with this.
He's already lost. It's not fair fight. I will offer
an olive branch to team Dan Crenshaw. While I am
not a pro war guy, While I am not a neocon,
I'm not a social conservative, I'm none of those things.
Dan and I do have one thing in common, a
love of electronic music. As you know, I own many synthesizers, turntables,
DJ equipment. I will if Dan Crenshaw wants to team
(39:01):
up with me and do electronic music in his post
political career, I will offer that to him now at
the will you be the raven that delivers that?
Speaker 3 (39:08):
Will? I will? I will happily deliver that message at
the inauguration for Donald Trump. All there were all these parties,
but there was only one party that wasn't having a
jazz band, and it was the Young Republicans Party, and
we had a thousand people there and we thought the
big thing to bring people in is to say, hey,
let's get members of Congress to be the DJs. We
thought it was an awesome idea, and the members of
Congress thought it was an awesome idea. There were many
(39:30):
members of Congress that showed up because of it, and
Kat Camick was one of the DJs. But one of
the big attacks on Dan was a photo of him
from that event being a djuh for our party. And
I got to say, I found it extremely disingenuous to
to use that as as a as a way of
saying that he doesn't care about his job.
Speaker 2 (39:51):
There's a lot of things I don't like about Dan Crenshaw,
the pro war stuff, the red flag thing, the arrogance,
the jesus Is folks here are come on. But I
will defend him on his love of DM.
Speaker 3 (40:01):
I will.
Speaker 2 (40:01):
Interestingly enough, by the way, DJ Ryan Kanowski, DJ Rancan,
DJ Rava drums. If I'm not mistaken, some of these
they the EDM community tried to cancel some of these
guys for going to that inauguration blow you know he
was Yeah, dead mouse came out after him.
Speaker 3 (40:19):
That's crazy.
Speaker 2 (40:19):
Hey, this conversation has confused our mostly boomer.
Speaker 3 (40:22):
Talk radio listens to that. We got a run. I
love you all. Thank you to my guest.
Speaker 2 (40:26):
Matthew will Shire, thanks for having me, and to everybody
that sent him hateful tweets for calling them weirdos and
freaks or whatever.
Speaker 3 (40:32):
After reading is used to chronicle IBED, I enjoy it.
Speaker 2 (40:34):
I'll be breack bright and early Monday morning for more
of what you bought a radio for.
Speaker 3 (40:38):
Have a great afternoon, folks. You are listening to the.
Speaker 2 (40:48):
Pursuit of that miss radio.
Speaker 3 (40:50):
Tell the government to kiss your ass. When you listen
to this show,
Jack gannon government sucks. The suit of having radio is DeLux.
Liberty and freedom will make you smile. Of a suit
of having and us on your radio toel justice, cheeseburg
is a liberty rise at food.
Speaker 2 (00:20):
Congressman Tony Gonzalez is under investigation by the House Ethics
Committee because he cheated on his wife with one of
his staff members and then that staff member killed herself.
Speaker 3 (00:37):
Wow, that is crazy.
Speaker 2 (00:40):
I can't believe the House still has an ethics committee. Hi, everybody,
thanks for joining us. My guest at the bottom of
the hour here is gonna be Matthew Wilshire, local neo
KHN political strategist. A lot of our listeners are Matt
at Matt because yesterday he published an article in the
Houston Chronicle calling Texas primary voters a bunch of weirdo
and freaks. And he's going to be here shortly, so
(01:03):
we will talk about that stick around.
Speaker 3 (01:06):
We will get to it shortly.
Speaker 2 (01:08):
Now, with all that being said, before we get to
anything else, let me just say there's a lot happening
today and I just can't I always feel like it's
important to start the show with a barometric reading of
what's happening in America. Yes, I will be at Southern
Rhythm tomorrow night in denhim Spring Saturday night. Come see
us do stand up comedy right outside of Baton Rouge.
(01:29):
Tickets available now. Jesse Isfunny dot com or Southern Rhythm
is the name of the venue, Southern Rhythm. It's that
place right outside of Baton Rouge where they always have
midget wrestling.
Speaker 1 (01:39):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (01:39):
I think that's how Jesse knows the owners. I don't
know anyway.
Speaker 2 (01:41):
Breitbart dot com today, reporting on a record number of
thirty eight percent said they like the idea of America
discarding capitalism for socialism. This is according to a Fox
News poll. Forty nine percent of registered voters polled said
capitalism is not working well or it doesn't work at all.
And I'll bet they said that on a thousand dollars
(02:02):
iPhone after pausing Netflix on their sixty five inch TV.
Speaker 3 (02:06):
While waiting for their daily door dash delivery.
Speaker 2 (02:09):
Guys, we live in a country that's so prosperous, so comfortable,
so convenient, so cozy, and above all, so narcissistic that
ignorant people feel the need to invent problems and crises.
Speaker 3 (02:23):
Listen to this.
Speaker 2 (02:24):
The latest Fox News survey released Thursday, finds a record
thirty eight percent think it would be a good thing
for the US to move away from capitalism. The shift
may be tied to divided views on capitalism itself. Voters
are split over whether capitalism is working. This is nothing
less than a toxic mix of entitlement and ignorance. Amless,
(02:46):
your goal is to see hundreds of millions of people
murdered and starved and oppressed. Socialism has never worked. Meanwhile,
capitalism has been an unqualified success. Look around, dummies, We've
ended p Yeah. Sure, some people might still qualify as poor.
But America's poor have iPhones and air conditioning and healthcare
(03:06):
and central heating. They have an obesity problem. We have
fat poor people in this country. You know how crazy
that is. Our poor people have access to the Internet
and microwave ovens and massive TVs.
Speaker 3 (03:19):
The modern day poor in America live like kings.
Speaker 2 (03:22):
They live better than the top one percent throughout ninety
nine percent of human history. This obviously does not include
the homeless, but they're a separate problem, involving addiction and
mental illness. In a lot of cases, homelessness is a choice. Sorry,
you don't like it, Come down here and fight me.
Let me clear things up for you, and this will
explain a lot of it. Democrat women seventy nine percent
(03:44):
and democrats under forty five seventy two percent are those
most likely to give up poor marks to give it
poor mark capitalism.
Speaker 3 (03:50):
They don't like capitalism.
Speaker 2 (03:53):
How about the most of those seventy nine percent of
leftist women whining about capitalism not working for them are
just people who want more ink.
Speaker 3 (04:00):
They deserve more just because they're so awesome.
Speaker 2 (04:04):
Our culture here in America has spent decades poisoning women
with this toxic nonsense that they deserve it all just
because they do because you're a queen. Slay queen. Meanwhile,
men are told to be understanding and patient. We're required
to protect and provide above all, we are shamed into
ignoring our masculine nature. Meanwhile, women are told that they're
(04:27):
perfect just the way they are, and there's no need to.
Speaker 3 (04:30):
Improve or better yourselves.
Speaker 2 (04:32):
It should all come to them on a silver platter
with zero effort. The closest America has to full blown
socialism can be found in the democrat run cities and
states that are losing their populations. Why is everybody leaving California?
Why is everybody moving on to Chicago? They get what
they want and then like a virus, they flee and
(04:53):
they infect the other places that are working and try
to take the problems from California, from Chicago, from New
York City and destroy Tennessee, Texas, Arizona, and Florida.
Speaker 3 (05:04):
Imagine that to the government.
Speaker 2 (05:07):
I started listening to the Jews Proceeds of Happiness Radio
with Cana Webster Judio aka producer Kenny President Trump. I
don't love this. I do not love this. My friends.
Trump says he wants to pick Iran's next supreme leader.
So it sounds like Marco Rubio is about to get
(05:28):
yet another job assignment that'll be great. He can't you know,
he can't do Christy Nome's old job because I don't
think he wants to sleep with Corey Lewandowski. Joining me
shortly in the studio here is going to be Matthew
will Shire, local neo con strategist. I know a lot
of you are mat at Matt. You don't like man.
People are always weird about like why do you like Matt?
(05:49):
Why do you like Matt will Shire? For me, he's
a friend. I don't agree with a lot of Matt's
political beliefs. He's joining me in the studio. Shortly he
wrote this article in the Houston Chronicle where he said
that some of you Texas Republican primary voters are weirdos
and what was it?
Speaker 3 (06:04):
What was the other thing there?
Speaker 1 (06:06):
Weird?
Speaker 2 (06:07):
He said, weirdos and idiots. He's in the studio now.
But before we get to any of it, and I'm
gonna address why you may or may not be weirdos
or idiots.
Speaker 3 (06:13):
So that's the that's the tea stick around for that.
Speaker 2 (06:16):
But before we get to any of that, can we
start off with this Texas politics right now? It's like
a family barbecue where two uncles are arm wrestling over
the last ribi and then the whole table's about to
flip over. People are losing their minds. We just had
this big primary March third. Cornin eked out forty three percent,
spent almost over one hundred million. I feel like every
time we turn around, the numbers higher. I thought it
(06:37):
was seventy million, then it was one hundred million. Now
it's a gajillion dollars. Paxton's spent four million, they're forty
three percent, forty one percent. Whether you like Cornin or Packston,
you got a myth that's concerning nobody hit fifty percent.
SAPAM made twenty six runoff or will there be a runoff?
Now there's a rumor that Trump's working out a deal
with Paxton, and Paxton might drop out in order to
(07:00):
get the Save Act or the Filibuster over it. Firstly,
I actually think we should keep the filibuster. But that's
of all my unpopular opinions. We'll save that one for
another day. Now, with all that being said, this could
be a very costly primary over one hundred and twenty
five the runoff, that is to say, one hundred and
twenty five million dollars in ads dumped like confetti at
a bad wedding, Corny's side, burning through seventy million, Just
(07:23):
a lot of money, guys. And then Trump has made
a crystal clear he does not want this dragging on.
They're taking this money out of the National Senate Committee,
the Senate Leadership Fund. The second this happened, the second
it was over, you saw the what's the guy's name, Alex,
the head of the National leader I don't know him personally,
basically the super pac for Thune and Tim Scott and
(07:44):
John Cornyn, and they're out making fun of Wesley Hunt
the morning after published someone it wass as if they'd
written it already.
Speaker 3 (07:51):
They're like, take that, Wesley Hunt, You're a loser.
Speaker 2 (07:53):
Clearly they didn't want those fifteen percent of people to
vote for cornn or they wouldn't have published that. But
do they know something we don't know. So Trump's made
a crystal clear he doesn't want this to go on anymore.
He said this must stop. Now, we have to win
in November. Trump's not subtle. He's yelling from the rooftops
that this runoff's bad for business, it's bad for unity,
it's bad for keeping the Senate red and his agenda rolling.
(08:14):
We're probably gonna lose the House. Historically that seems to happen,
it's not Look, I'm a realist here. I'm not here
to lie to you guys or tell you what you
want to hear. I'm here to tell you the truth.
We may lose the House. If we also lose the Senate,
they're going to impeach Trump and remove him from office.
So it's time to be pragmatic guys. I like Ken Paxton.
I don't care about what if you can't explain his
(08:37):
scandals out loud to a guy with a vaccine injury
whose wife lost her job because she didn't adhere to
a COVID mandate. And they see Paxton suing Pfizer and
you know, different hospitals where doctor Mary Bowden worked at.
They're not going to care what Paxton scan, what happened
with his marriage. They don't care. Paxton's a fighter. He
sued the hell out a big tech and Pfizer in
(08:57):
the Colony Ridge crooks real results or at least close
to results, or at least someone tried. But the Senate
is never going to confirm him to be the age,
or so we've been told, so forget that. They'd be
like hurting cats through a fireworks factory. He's a little
too bulldog. The Dems are squishy, the Republicans are squishy.
They're not going to confirm him. So here's the pragmatic play.
(09:19):
Trump could fire Bondy. Sorry, if you guys are one
of the people, you're one of the nine or ten
people left that like the woman who protected the job
the Jeffrey Epstein customers, I don't know why you'd want
her to stick around, get rid of her. Corny's got
to go somewhere, he has to. We can either have
an expensive runoff or Paxton could drop out. I don't
(09:40):
want that, or and follow me here. You may not
like this idea, but I'm being mister pragmatic today. What
if we replace Pam Bondi with Corny? But hang on, stop,
hang on, listen, hear me out. Corny is going to
coast right through the Senate confirmation. There will be nothing
controversial about that. Mar Kurubio got every vote when he
(10:01):
was nominated to be Secretary of State. With the amount
of time Cornyn spent in the Senate, do you think
that's gonna get held up?
Speaker 3 (10:07):
Not at all.
Speaker 2 (10:08):
He coasts right into the attorney general position. No problem there.
Then Paxton wins the Senate race. We've been told over
and over again Paxton can't win in a general election.
Speaker 3 (10:16):
He's won every.
Speaker 2 (10:17):
Time, He's never lost a he's never lost a runoff,
He's never lost. I don't think he's ever lost in
the general election as he unless he ran for something
I wasn't aware of. So with that being said, you
don't like Paxton, couldn't be worse than Bondy. Pam Bondy
protected pedophiles. I don't know what to I don't like
Pam Bondy at all. I don't know any neo khn's
and conservatives and populists and libertarians don't agree on much,
(10:39):
but they all seem to be sick of Pam Bondy
at this point. So let's say that happens. Then Trump
endorses Paxton, right, tells corn Congratulations, Now you're the attorney general.
Cornin gets a cool new title, one more thing, one
more accolade he could put on his resume before he retires.
The guy's at gajillion years old. He's the geriatric of Jeriat.
He's the Joe Biden of the republic Could Party. This
(11:01):
is my idea. Trump gets his win in November. Locked
agendas protected. It continues the tradition of having an attorney general.
No one's really passionate about Jeff Sessions, Bill Barr, Pam Bondi,
John Cornyn. Fine, and no more wasting energy on Texas
drama where we could be spending that money in I
don't know. The Georgia Senate general election, the Carolinas, the Michigans,
(11:24):
the Ohios, the Michigans, the Michigan Well there's really two Michigans, right,
because there's Michigan and then there's deer Bornistan. And anyway,
it's not poetic, it's not pure, but in this circus,
it's a move that stops the bleeding. Trump doesn't want
to run off. He has been loud and proud about that.
We can make this happen and the circus make the
twenty twenty six general election great again. That's my idea.
(11:44):
That's Kenny Webster's idea. Go ahead and hate on me,
joining me now. Before we even get to the op ed,
he wrote that is upset every Republican in Houston, Texas
this week. Whoa, whoa, Matt, whoa. I just put you
on camera. This is do you know you look half
Puerto Rican?
Speaker 3 (12:00):
You know, I get that I've been.
Speaker 2 (12:03):
Why did you decide to dress up today like the
attorney for a drug smuggling cartel.
Speaker 3 (12:08):
No. I thought that we were going to church after this,
and uh, and I thought that I would show the
Lord the proper respect. But uh, anyway, I think that
we might have to go to go to church together
with each other on Sunday.
Speaker 2 (12:19):
You know, I think you don't think the Lord likes
my chest hair. I'm wearying a crucifix.
Speaker 3 (12:24):
Here, Kenny, I gotta say that rant. You know that
I wasn't expecting to have to add you in to
my list of idiots and weirdos. But that rant kind
of kind of makes me wonder whether I should.
Speaker 2 (12:34):
All right, what do you not like about it? Do
you want an expensive runoff? You want Paxton to drop out?
Speaker 3 (12:39):
I think that Paxton should drop out for the exact
same reason that Tony Gonzalez has dropped out. Okay, that
he is unfit morally. He texted a one out of
two in the morning about antal side and she killed
herself because he he is unfit morally to be a
leader of this nation. His daughters don't think so, his
family doesn't think so. Man, that must have been, you know,
(13:00):
so so low to go to your children and say
I need you to cover for me for cheating on
your mother.
Speaker 2 (13:07):
But they didn't seem to mind. They seem like they
meant it. Do you think that what you think he's
got some dirt on them.
Speaker 3 (13:12):
You seem to think that political advertising is always the truth.
Speaker 2 (13:16):
Well, well, the Political Advertiser's cornin has been running say
that Lesley Hunt is a rhino who was a snake
that voted for Hillary or something like that.
Speaker 3 (13:24):
I'm not going to go and attack Wesley. I think
that you know that the primary is over, the runoff
is now, and so I'm I'll focus on Cornan and
Paxton right now. And Paxton is not fit for the job.
I think that the Trouton administration recognizes that he is
not fit for the job. And you know when you
when you mentioned, oh, well, Ken Paxton has never lost
(13:45):
a runoff. John Cornyn has never lost an election. Period.
Has Paxton ever lost an election? No, he hasn't. But
this isn't that? What isn't that why it makes this
so interesting? But but your comment was that he'd never
he'd never lost a runoff. The but but.
Speaker 2 (13:59):
Let's go into the well, hang on, I want to
back up on that. Yeah, because that's my thing, the
like Tony Gonzalez. But I'm bumping the argument that you
almost sped up my coffee.
Speaker 3 (14:11):
Thank you.
Speaker 2 (14:12):
The argument that Neil cons are making is we can't
have Ken Paxton the general election because they'll lose to
James Taler.
Speaker 3 (14:18):
And and here's the math on that. Every time that
Ken Paxson has been on the ballot, he has been
the lowest statewide vote getter for Republicans. What does that mean?
So there are there are local candidates, there are statewide candidates.
They're national candidates. But you don't vote nationwide. You vote
with your state for the for the president. And so
(14:39):
you look at the state wide vote getters, you know,
and so your you know, abbot is on there, and
you know, and Dan Patrick and et cetera. Every single
time Ken Paxton has two hundred thousand votes fewer than
the top of the ticket. We're saying is the top
of the ticket. So we are going to have a problem.
Speaker 2 (14:58):
So I heard this argument yesterday from some woman named Morgan,
who is an Austin Republican. She used to be an
NESSAC member. She's not a fan of this woman, but
she's trying to make the argument. R She's like, you know,
back in twenty twenty, Cornying got more votes than Trump did,
thank you, that's why we need to close the primary.
Speaker 3 (15:15):
A bunch of Biden voters like Corny. But go back
a little bit further, go back to twenty sixteen with
that argument.
Speaker 2 (15:22):
We have to break care real quickly. So I just
want to wrap this up, get you on record. You
do not want Corny to be the Attorney General of America.
That's what you're saying.
Speaker 3 (15:29):
I want him to remain senator, a senator of the
United States.
Speaker 2 (15:33):
So I just want to keep it on the record here.
Matt Willshire wants Pam Bondy, the woman who protected the
Epstein John's, to remain attorney general.
Speaker 3 (15:40):
That's what you're saying. Absolutely not.
Speaker 2 (15:43):
It's never too early to learn that the government is
a greedy piglet that suckles on a taxpayer's teat until
they have sore, chapped nipples.
Speaker 3 (15:52):
The Pursuit of Happiness Radio on AM nine fifty KPRC.
Speaker 2 (15:58):
I got to make a couple of points. First, let
me get your article on the screen. Hi, everybody, I'm
Kenny Webster. Can I just for those of you that
don't know if you never watched this show before, well
I don't know how you got here, but welcome. It's
good to be here. Today is National Employee Appreciation Day.
Unless your name is Christinome, it's not not for her. No, Unfortunately,
(16:19):
you know what's interesting about this, It's great. I mean,
I like Christy. I think she's prettier than Mark Wayne,
and she has an easier name Matthew well Shire. But
you know what I like about christin home she looks
beautiful on a horse. We gave her two hundred million dollars.
We're surprised she spent it on a vanity project. She's
a beautiful woman. Of course she did. But now she
have more time to spend with her dog.
Speaker 3 (16:39):
Right, I mean she'll just spend the rest of her
career putting down dogs. No, it'll be real sad.
Speaker 2 (16:44):
You know it's odd about that. Wouldn't you think the
Haitian migrants would like her? Considering do you know what
I mean?
Speaker 3 (16:49):
Like all the dogs in this country, all the dog
lovers in this country are thrilled today. How did she
really think that telling people, yes, I shot my dog
was a good pr move.
Speaker 2 (17:02):
Okay, I don't dislike Christy, no, but I'll admit she's
not perfect. Here's what I think happened. For those that
don't remember where that little joke originated from, it was
in a book. Yeah, and I bet she never read
the book. I think that she read the book.
Speaker 3 (17:14):
I think that what she thought was that it came
across as tough and Trump. You know, she's she's trying
to get Trump's attention. And Trump is not a dog lover.
He's the first president since like Teddy Roosevelt to not
have a pet. Dude, I know, I don't get it either. Well,
I mean, look what it is. He's got a pet.
Speaker 2 (17:35):
I mean he's got Marco Rubio. I thought you were
going to say jd Vance that's unfair that they pick
up jad Vance is an intellectual. I don't know what
Marco does, but he's Uh, Marco is effective.
Speaker 3 (17:48):
And Jade Vance is you know, Tucker Carlson's pet, you know,
pet puppet.
Speaker 2 (17:53):
All right, let's talk about your article for a second.
For those of you just turning on the radio, my
guest right now is Matthew will Shier is a big
fan of guys like John Cornyn, Uh, Dan Crenshaw. I
suppose you probably love Lindsay Graham is probably one of
your people.
Speaker 3 (18:08):
I like it when Lindsay Graham is uh is advocating
for American supremacy. Sure ha, my name is Lindsay.
Speaker 2 (18:15):
What we got to do is get all the Libby
and Brown boys, bring them back here. To America, grease
them up and oil them up because it's tough over them.
Speaker 3 (18:22):
Have you ever watched the show Alpha House? Okay, so
it's I think it's on Amazon Prime. It is. It's
John Goodman and a few others, and it's a two
seasons of a TV show where it's four US senators
all living in a house together and it's like a
frat house. And there's this guy that is, you know,
essentially great essentially Lindsey Graham, and another guy who is
(18:46):
essentially Marco Rubio living in this house. And it is hilarious.
And so you got John Goodman, Clark Johnson. Oh, they
got a black guy at it. I like that. Matt
molloy is Matt mccoey. I can this show. He'd be
good in there anyway. It's a funny show.
Speaker 2 (19:04):
HBO presents The Matt mkoyac Show, sponsored by Venmo.
Speaker 3 (19:09):
No, you don't want to be on camera, you know.
I don't want to camera. Oh I talk about that.
I have no comment. I don't know what you're talking about.
Speaker 2 (19:16):
All right? Can we talk about your articles? S? Matt
and I are friends. I'm a Catholic, he's a Catholic.
We both have become over the years, we both have
united and worked hard together to mobilize young conservatives against
the local progressive movement here in Houston state politics. That
gets a little complicated national politics, man and I don't
necessarily agree on everything. I often make the point when
(19:37):
people ask why are you friends with Matt well Scheire,
And I was like a few reasons. Number one, God
before politics, comedy before. For me, it's God comedy. Politics.
Politics is third, maybe even fourth, if there's good barbecue
for lunch. But you know, local politics we can make
so much more of a difference than we can on
a national level. I'm not going to stop the war
and Iran, you think anyone's listening to me. I'm not
(19:58):
going to be able to secure the border or open
the border or whatever. But I bet if me and
Matt and a handful of other people teamed up, we
could replace somebody in the commissioner's court. You know, we
could get a better city council man. And so that's
the reason why I'm friends with guys like Matt Wellshire
and I cause.
Speaker 3 (20:12):
You get people asking me the same thing, why are
you friends with Kenny when he's so critical of the
people that you're supportive of. And I say, similar to
that God country family and my friends or my family.
I mean there it is. You can have friends that
you disagree with, otherwise they're boring friends.
Speaker 2 (20:27):
Yeah, I would agree with that. Plus also in a photo,
I always look really handsome next to you. I don't
know why that is.
Speaker 3 (20:33):
Yeah, I look like a team of Ted Cruz. That's
the unfortunate part, dude.
Speaker 2 (20:38):
True story about Matt When Facebook started using this algorithm
where it would look at people's photos and try to
tag them, like, oh, here's a photo of you and
this guy together.
Speaker 3 (20:48):
That's your coworker.
Speaker 2 (20:49):
We'll alert his Facebook accounts so he can have the
photo added to his newsfeed. When people post photos of
Ted Cruz, more than once it thought it was you.
Speaker 3 (20:58):
Right, Yeah. It would always auto tag me, and so
it became this running joke where on my birthday people
would say, oh, here's my favorite photo of me with Matt,
and it was just you know, it was a photo
of them with Ted Cruise. All right, I got one
for you right now, are you right? I saw this.
Speaker 2 (21:14):
For those that don't know, we're looking at a photo
right now in the studio of James Tallerco and this
guy named what is his name, britt Brillo.
Speaker 3 (21:24):
Or something like that. I don't know.
Speaker 2 (21:25):
There's this young kid who wants to be the new
turning Point USA Charlie Kirk guy. So he like got
his dad to pay for a private jet and he
started flying around the country. Maybe he's a nice kid.
I have no idea. I don't know him, but he
looks exactly like James Tallerco. And now that I've seen
this photo, I'll never think that they're two different.
Speaker 3 (21:42):
But I I the better one that I saw was
James tall Erico photo next to Obama's presidential portrait, and
they I mean, he just looks like a wider version
of Obama. You know.
Speaker 2 (21:53):
You know the thing about James Tallerco is it's really
handsome and just like me, he supports trans what TRANS?
Speaker 3 (22:00):
I like James. He's a good guy. So you brought
me on to talk about these two articles you.
Speaker 2 (22:05):
I'm gonna let you talk uninterrupted for a minute about
your article.
Speaker 3 (22:08):
Let's start off with this.
Speaker 2 (22:09):
You have called local uh, well, state, what did you
call them? Fervent idiots and weirdos for electing Steve Touth
instead of Dan Crenshaw.
Speaker 3 (22:19):
Let's see, I'm gonna give you. I'm gonna give you
three minutes. Okay, I'll be I'll be as quick as
I can on this. I'm telling you what that that quote,
you know, where I say I'm calling people fervent idiots
and weirdos is actually a reference to the previous last
week's UH Houston Chronicle op ed in which I was
talking about, don't let idiots and weirdos rule over you.
The fact is is that, sorry, did we did we
(22:41):
let that? Really? I think that we did. I think
that we did let idiots and weirdos rule over us.
And I'll and I'll make the argument as to why. Unfortunately,
when we are looking at at primary voter turnout, it's
really low. It's really low, you know. So, uh, there
are about five hundred thousand registered voters and in Congressional
(23:01):
District two and thirty seven thousand of them voted for
Steve Toath. So, you know, seven and a half percent
of the registered voters decided that they wanted Steve Toath
as the as their Republican nominee who will almost certainly
be their next representative. What that means is that the
vast majority of people because they don't see voting in
(23:23):
a primary as an integral part of their civic duty.
That means that they don't have a say in it.
The number of times over the years where people will
call me, you know, right before general election and be like,
these candidates, all the candidates on the ballot are awfully
Why are these And I'll be like, did you vote
in the primary? And They'll be like, no, I didn't
vote in the primary. I didn't have time for that.
(23:44):
I'm like, then you don't get to complain. You don't
get to complain that you don't like the candidates if
you didn't vote in the primary. Not many people vote
in the primary, and unfortunately, the people who do vote
in the primary are oftentimes weirdos. So two weeks ago,
I spent some time over at the at two polling
locations in Harris County. Now, let's be clear, I'm not
(24:06):
saying that everyone that votes in a primary is a weirdo.
I'm saying that the weirdos have a disproportionate a disproportionate
amount of the vote because it's such a low amount.
If one percent of the population are weirdos, let's just
say that it's one percent. I think it's higher. But
let's say that it's one percent and they always vote,
(24:26):
they you know, and and sixty percent of the people
or fifty percent of the people show up to vote,
then they only represent two percent of the total turnout.
But if ten percent of the people show up to vote,
then that one percent represents ten percent of the people
that showed up to vote. And that's It's just this
mathematical fact that if the weirdos always vote, then the
(24:47):
weirdos have a disproportionate effect on primaries. And why do
I call these people weirdos? When I was over at
one of the polling locations, different polling locations, I was
out there handing out literature or for my friend Dan,
And you know what, I like to connect with the
other pole greaders, And honestly, some of the some of
toasts pole greaders were perfectly fine. There was this one
(25:09):
guy that I had a really nice conversation, older gentleman,
don't remember his name, very nice conversation with. There was
another guy who was from originally from Canada, great conversation with.
Speaker 2 (25:19):
Him, Canadian, Canadian, Canadian.
Speaker 3 (25:25):
No. But there were four different people all handing out
Steve toaf literature. Out of the nine that I interacted
with who were pushing really weird things, two of them
told me that nine to eleven was an inside job. Now,
let's be clear, my dad worked in the World Trade
Center both when it was bombed in on nine to eleven.
Speaker 2 (25:43):
I don't I had family there too, and I know
it wasn't an inside job.
Speaker 3 (25:47):
I do not put up with people telling me that
it was an inside job either. It was obviously the
Jews go on. I think it was pretty obviously continuing.
So we So two out of nine that I was
interacting with were saying that nine to eleven was an
inside job. Another one told me that the voting booths
(26:09):
in Montgomery County were being rigged by the Democrats in
Montgomery County via wi FI. And another one told me
that the only reason that the war in Ukraine was
continuing is because of cash payments to Zelensky. And here's
the thing. You can debate what American policy should have
(26:29):
been after nine to eleven. You can debate what the
best form of voting would be. You can debate what
we should do in Ukraine. Bottomlind me. But those are
all weird positions held by idiots. It sounds like what.
Speaker 2 (26:41):
You're saying is this is why Crenshaw lost because weirdos
vote in normal people don't.
Speaker 3 (26:46):
I think that low primary turnout. Dan does extremely well
in generals and does a lot worse in partisan primaries.
All right, let's talk about that.
Speaker 2 (26:54):
In twenty eighteen when he was first elected, your boy
Dan got twenty thousand votes. In twenty twenty six, he
got twenty six thousand votes. Right, So it's sexually more
more people came out in the election where he lost
than one where he won.
Speaker 3 (27:08):
Matt, Well, so are you talking about the primary in
we're talking about the prime. We were talking about the
primary twenty eighteen, there were nine candidates, uh, and he
won that vote. He won that election by one hundred
and fifty five VU. And this time there were what
three or four or something? There was there were effectively
two okay, well the other the other two there were
effectively too. Is Kathy Wall. Hi, I'm Kathy Wall I'm
(27:28):
Texas tough. No. No. In twenty eighteen, there were, uh,
there were nine candidates, and there were uh there were okay,
there were four that got.
Speaker 2 (27:38):
Over at least minimum five percent or something semantics, So
more people voted in this round. Okay, I get your point.
There were more options in but with more options, you
think more people would have come out and voted. They didn't. Uh,
Less people came out and voted it. But Crenshaw still
made it. And Crenshaw got elected every time, right up
twenty eighteen, two thousand, twenty twenty two, twenty twenty four.
(28:00):
In twenty twenty six he finally lost. So is all
those same people? I think that it was all the
same people voting and everything for At the very least,
it was most of the same people in those primaries.
Speaker 3 (28:10):
It wasn't the same people keeping in mind to keep it.
It's a different distract the Trump a different district.
Speaker 2 (28:15):
Who was the keynote speaker at the Montgomery County Trump
Ragan dinner, Matt, I know that there are hundreds of
people in this room. They all voted in the primary
in twenty eighteen, they voted for Crenshaw. In twenty twenty six,
they didn't. Are they all wrong? Did they become weirdos
that they used to be normal?
Speaker 1 (28:30):
No?
Speaker 3 (28:30):
No, no, I'm my point of the idiots and weirdos comment.
Speaker 2 (28:33):
Okay, because simply that's fine. If they're mad about it,
it's you start your card. If they want to be
mad about it, then you know it's because they can't
do math. So maybe they're approving my point that they're idiots,
but no, no, the bottom line is that if one
percent of idiots and weirdos always vote, they have a
disproportionate impact when ten percent of the people vote versus
(28:56):
one fifty percent of the people vote.
Speaker 3 (28:57):
That's just math. There's there's no there.
Speaker 2 (29:01):
Okay, you know you're calling people weirdos right now, but
you are wearing two different patterns on your tie and
your shirt, and.
Speaker 3 (29:07):
Some people might say that that makes you a weirdo.
Listening to the Pursuit of Happiness radio, I guess it's
not available in Canada.
Speaker 2 (29:15):
All right, this is just in Dorrito's with protein has
hit the store shelves. So if you're a stoner who
wants to build muscle mass, you have some seriously conflicting goals.
I don't really see how those two things are. They
don't work together. Hi, everybody, welcome back from break. It's
not all bad news for neo cons and populists and
(29:36):
right wingers and conservative there's one thing that I bet
we all agree on decent people. Maybe you don't like
Dan Crenshaw, maybe you do like them. Maybe you don't
like Steve Telleth. Maybe if Paxton Wesley Hunt, maybe you
find whatever the case may be. I think one thing
we probably all agree on is that most of us
are not big fans of Tony Gonzalez. Tony Gonzalez is
(30:00):
the lawmaker from South Texas. My buddy Tony Ortiz, who
current Revolt dot Com broke this story six seven months
ago about how Tony Gonzalez, his staff member, committed suicide
by self immolation after she was effectively pressured by her
boss into having sex with the guy, and nobody believed
it at the time. We had Washington insiders telling us, Kenny,
(30:21):
don't read that story on the radio. You guys are
on a lot of radio stations. You're gonna get sued.
They're gonna take you off the air. They're gonna take
your bulldog away and your house and all your skateboards
and your synthesizers. And we read the story anyway on
the air, and months later it turned out we were correct.
Tony Gonzalez is now left office. He's finally admitted he
cheated on his wife. Matt, I know you left office.
Speaker 3 (30:42):
He dropped out of thank.
Speaker 2 (30:43):
You're right getting I'm getting at him myself. He hasn't
left office, and he probably shouldn't.
Speaker 3 (30:48):
The Republicans have such a narrow majority in the House. Look,
it's unfortunate, but the reality is is that he either
give the Democrats the House or keep Tony there, you know,
without any responsibility other than to show up and vote yes.
All right.
Speaker 2 (31:05):
There is this video from years ago, Matt, what was
this was called what Texas? At the time, we felt
very differently about all these people. At the time, we
thought they were all very similar. I don't like Dan Crenshaw.
I'm not a big fan of his policies. I think
he's kind of an arrogant prick. But at the very
least he's never like bullied a woman into having sex
with him until she reached suicide. So he's not in
(31:29):
politics anymore. At least he's leaving soon. He's featured in
this political ad called Texas Reloaded, where he gets on
a plane and he jumps out of the plane and
I'm just going to fast forward here a little bit.
Speaker 3 (31:39):
It featured at the time a lot of superhero landing.
Speaker 2 (31:42):
We're considered to be upcoming politicians in the Texas Republican Party.
So Dan Crenshaw, he's he's out now. Can I pause
real quick on this? Right here, Wesley Hunt is smoking
a cigar in this scene.
Speaker 3 (31:55):
Okay, is that your cigar? That is my cigar.
Speaker 2 (31:57):
I'm a very big fan of Wesley Hunt. I think
he's a good guy. I think he's a maga populist.
I think he's a friend of the liberty movement. Wesley
is did not win his race, right, So okay, so
that's zero for two here in this commercial.
Speaker 3 (32:10):
Who's that guy August Fluger? So he's still in office.
August Flucker is still in office. If I was August
Flucker right now, I'd be nervous. But we'll leave that alone.
Speaker 2 (32:18):
Moving along here, from August Fluger Wesley Hunt, Dan Crenshaw,
we have now got who's this Beth?
Speaker 3 (32:24):
Where did Beth go? Uhh, that's Genevieve College and Genevieve No,
that's Beth fan Oh that's Beth un done. Yes? Sorry, yeah, yeah,
that's Beth. Sorry. And who's the blonde next door? That's
was the HPD officer who was Dan Crenshaw's bodyguard at events.
And she's married or she got a boyfriend. I don't remember.
It doesn't matter who it is.
Speaker 2 (32:43):
It's not important, all right, Moving along here, Beth's still
in office. If I was Beth, i'd be nervous now.
But that's besides the point.
Speaker 3 (32:49):
So so Beth van Dyne has she calls me broccoli guy,
because why does she call you? Because we were filming
another ad two or three years later, and in the ad,
I played a transgender vegan at a vegan barbecue place
(33:10):
and I throw it. What was it hard for you
to get in the character?
Speaker 2 (33:12):
Mat?
Speaker 3 (33:13):
And I throw a head of broccoli at Dan Crenshaw
and I missed, and I hit Beth van Dine in
the head with a head of broccoli.
Speaker 2 (33:21):
Okay, yes, this is actually very funny to me, all right.
So if I was Beth, i'd be very nervous right now.
And so anyway, poor Wesley, Wesley was great, A big,
big fan of Wesley.
Speaker 3 (33:31):
And now we come to this guy.
Speaker 2 (33:33):
Oh no, if only we knew then what we know now.
For those listening on the radio, they can't see what
we're looking at. It's a very famous political ad from
several years ago which now features Tony Gonzalez, the rising
star from South Texas, and was he already in office
or was he running?
Speaker 3 (33:49):
Though? This was all of these people, it was their
first time running. It was their first time running, and
Dan was going to help him out. Dan did help
him out. We raised them a ton of money off
of this ad. And then so anyway, what became a
Tony Gonzalez? Then where's he? Where's Tony Gonzalez? Now Tony
is not. He has dropped out of the race as
of like eleven o'clock at night last night.
Speaker 2 (34:10):
All right, I'm not going to say anything about who
it is or it's kind of a poorly kept secret
in Texas politics that there may or may not be
other women.
Speaker 3 (34:21):
I don't know. I have no idea.
Speaker 2 (34:22):
I don't personally know Tony Gonzalez. I don't know these people.
But it's a thing, as Current Revolt would say, many
people are.
Speaker 3 (34:27):
Saying, look, look, Tony Gonzalez is not the only It's
it's unfortunate to say, but this is not This is
not the case of just Tony Gonzalez having had an affair.
I remember being in being there while Byron Donald's was
hitting on a Byron Donalds, a married man was hitting
on and took home a political staffer at a party
(34:49):
in he had come to an event in Texas and like,
it was so uncomfortable that I left the party. This
is not this, this is not a unique thing. I
will say. I think that it's a good thing that
Tony Gonzalez has decided that he's not going to continue
his race. Kind of think that, you know, maybe the
(35:10):
same the same logic should be applied to Ken Paxton.
Speaker 2 (35:14):
Let me ask you this, Matt, are you the person
that went home with Byron Donalds?
Speaker 3 (35:18):
Don't lie to us, don't you know? I, uh, I
think I have a joke that I don't want to say.
Oh say it, Oh, Matt, say it, Matt. You know
the dark chocolate is my favorite. Don't say it. Don't
say it, Matt. I don't know anyway.
Speaker 2 (35:34):
And then so if I was bath or whatever, it's like, uh,
what an odd it's weird how this political ad age.
That was my only point of bringing it up here.
I do you think we see more when we see
Wesley Hunt again?
Speaker 3 (35:45):
I got I think so. Look, I think that there
are I think that as the political climate changes, and
a lot of these people, Uh, Wesley, I do believe
Dan are seriousitical thinkers. They are willing to put the
intellectual part of conservatism front and center. And it's one
(36:08):
of the things that I was impressed with about a
lot of the people that were chosen here. You know,
we see Genevieve doing that through AFP and so yes,
I think that there's going to be a further political
career for a lot of these people.
Speaker 2 (36:23):
All right, we've got comments on the screen. I'm going
to read some of them for those of you that
are watching us live on the radio, on social media.
We're going to react to some of these comments. People
are leaving right now. Paul says, whatever Paxton's meritable marital foibles,
he fights the good fights. Texan Republicans have factored in
his failures. It's a compromise, and his mistress has not
(36:43):
immolated herself. Cornyn has proven himself to oppose Trump when
he thinks it will earn him.
Speaker 3 (36:48):
Rhino points. I tend to agree with Paul.
Speaker 2 (36:50):
I mean, Paxton and Wesley Hunt, these guys didn't help
Joe Biden pass a red flag law, so.
Speaker 3 (36:57):
Okay, let's bring that up, because I'm glad you brought
that up. You're thirty seconds guy, because I think that
that bill was going to be passed as a as
a ban on assault weapons. That's what the Democrats were pushing.
And then John Corny comes in and says, how about
we don't do a ban on assault weapons and we
make it it so that states that don't have red
(37:17):
flag laws get mental health care money. And all of
the people that are upset seem to be lying about
what John Cornan voted on.
Speaker 2 (37:25):
I feel like this is a Matt mccayac tweet. This
is a Matt Wilcher statement.
Speaker 3 (37:29):
Okay, Matt Well, allow it all right.
Speaker 2 (37:31):
South Texan says that Matt's tie is loose. He says,
if you're he's saying, I don't put Matt on the
screen while we do this. He said it here. He said,
if you're going to be a pocket square guy, be
that guy.
Speaker 3 (37:43):
Tighten up your time.
Speaker 2 (37:44):
Monsir Country Club Cardifax Maximus says, I'm but heard and
struggling to cope. You people are stupid weirdos. Quote Matt
will Shire, he's quoting you. He says, that's what you
would say.
Speaker 3 (37:55):
I don't think that I would have. I mean, I'm
happy to call that guy that you.
Speaker 2 (38:00):
Joshua Delano says, tiny is reaping the whirldwind? What is
that always talking about Crenshaw? I think, I don't know.
Is that because Dan is a little guy? I think
is what they mean a lot of politicians. Dan is
jacked as well. He's not, but he's not like a
high and I.
Speaker 3 (38:14):
Mean the average height of the American How do you
know Dan Crenshaw's height because he's because he's an inch
teller than me. It's always annoyed me. Yeah, and only
five inches long. Never mind that, all right?
Speaker 2 (38:26):
And then Ronnie on YouTube says, I'm a fan of
Dan Crenshaw's DJ career.
Speaker 3 (38:30):
Will he become so? So let me really quickly mention
because I saw an ad that was put out by
Steve Toath's pack, funded by the guys who who no.
Speaker 2 (38:40):
No, no, we're not We can't end the show with this.
He's already lost. It's not fair fight. I will offer
an olive branch to team Dan Crenshaw. While I am
not a pro war guy, While I am not a neocon,
I'm not a social conservative, I'm none of those things.
Dan and I do have one thing in common, a
love of electronic music. As you know, I own many synthesizers, turntables,
DJ equipment. I will if Dan Crenshaw wants to team
(39:01):
up with me and do electronic music in his post
political career, I will offer that to him now at
the will you be the raven that delivers that?
Speaker 3 (39:08):
Will? I will? I will happily deliver that message at
the inauguration for Donald Trump. All there were all these parties,
but there was only one party that wasn't having a
jazz band, and it was the Young Republicans Party, and
we had a thousand people there and we thought the
big thing to bring people in is to say, hey,
let's get members of Congress to be the DJs. We
thought it was an awesome idea, and the members of
Congress thought it was an awesome idea. There were many
(39:30):
members of Congress that showed up because of it, and
Kat Camick was one of the DJs. But one of
the big attacks on Dan was a photo of him
from that event being a djuh for our party. And
I got to say, I found it extremely disingenuous to
to use that as as a as a way of
saying that he doesn't care about his job.
Speaker 2 (39:51):
There's a lot of things I don't like about Dan Crenshaw,
the pro war stuff, the red flag thing, the arrogance,
the jesus Is folks here are come on. But I
will defend him on his love of DM.
Speaker 3 (40:01):
I will.
Speaker 2 (40:01):
Interestingly enough, by the way, DJ Ryan Kanowski, DJ Rancan,
DJ Rava drums. If I'm not mistaken, some of these
they the EDM community tried to cancel some of these
guys for going to that inauguration blow you know he
was Yeah, dead mouse came out after him.
Speaker 3 (40:19):
That's crazy.
Speaker 2 (40:19):
Hey, this conversation has confused our mostly boomer.
Speaker 3 (40:22):
Talk radio listens to that. We got a run. I
love you all. Thank you to my guest.
Speaker 2 (40:26):
Matthew will Shire, thanks for having me, and to everybody
that sent him hateful tweets for calling them weirdos and
freaks or whatever.
Speaker 3 (40:32):
After reading is used to chronicle IBED, I enjoy it.
Speaker 2 (40:34):
I'll be breack bright and early Monday morning for more
of what you bought a radio for.
Speaker 3 (40:38):
Have a great afternoon, folks. You are listening to the.
Speaker 2 (40:48):
Pursuit of that miss radio.
Speaker 3 (40:50):
Tell the government to kiss your ass. When you listen
