Cornyn’s Poor Voting Record - THU 7.1

Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:00):
I'm cutting.

Speaker 2 (00:01):
Yeah, that's me.

Speaker 1 (00:01):
You you you hitting him skins. I'm pretty good. Huh yeah,
I had no idea. Somebody told me they saw a
video of you and you was a drummer. I didn't
know you had any musical talent at all.

Speaker 2 (00:12):
I'm okay.

Speaker 1 (00:13):
Yeah, he plays the synthesizers.

Speaker 2 (00:15):
I play him with synthesizers. I do.

Speaker 1 (00:18):
Okay, Well, no, you're right, I do some drumming, forth man.
That's impressive, Thank.

Speaker 2 (00:28):
You very much. The nine o'clock show is totally different
from the six am show. Stick around, tip your bartender.

Speaker 1 (00:34):
Yeah that's right. The second show, it's gonna be really dirty.

Speaker 2 (00:38):
Oh yeah, it's felthy. Yeah, you wouldn't believe it. Okay.

Speaker 3 (00:41):
So, in case you guys haven't heard yet, we've got
all these people in the government and there are a
bunch of douchebacks. Yeah, you're not gonna like him, but
fortunately we got this guy, Donald Trump, and he's taken
care of that problem for us. I like that about him.
One of the guys in our government who's getting a
lot of attention lately is actually the uh former Well

(01:02):
he's not really maga. His name is Thomas Massey, and
I never heard of what does he do? I know
everyone hates Thomas Massey because he's not a liberal, but
he's not really maga.

Speaker 1 (01:11):
But I don't know enough about him to hate him yet.
But if you say everybody hates him, I'll jump on you.

Speaker 3 (01:14):
I actually think he makes a few good points. I
think the brilliant thing about Thomas Massey.

Speaker 1 (01:18):
Is who don't hate him? No, Well, then not everybody
hates him.

Speaker 3 (01:21):
Clearly, he makes all the other Republicans more conservative just
so they could try to keep up with him. I
know he doesn't get along with Trump, but he says
stuff like this.

Speaker 4 (01:29):
Can we be honest with the American people about what's
going on here?

Speaker 1 (01:32):
This is political theater.

Speaker 4 (01:34):
I'm going to call out both sides right here. It's
all posturing as fake fighting. We all know where it
ends up. This is groundhog Day. I don't care if
the Democrat is the speaker or Republican is the speaker.
We always get a cr in September and then we
get an omnibus. Sometimes there's a twist on that we
might get the omnibus before Christmas, but if we're not good,

(01:56):
it comes after Christmas. But that's what's going to happen.
And in the meantime, it's political theater. You know, we've
got some it's good theater. We've got great writers. Oh sure,
I wish.

Speaker 2 (02:08):
They'd just come up with a new plot.

Speaker 4 (02:11):
It's the same plot every fiscal year. What should we
be doing, It's already been discussed. We should have done
twelve separate bills. We should have done twelve separate bills.
But again, whether Democrats are in control or Republicans are
in control, we never.

Speaker 2 (02:26):
Do the twelve separate bills did.

Speaker 4 (02:29):
Why do we always spend at least as much as
we did last year, and why do we never cut spending.
It's because Democrats want to grow the welfare state and
Republicans want to grow the military industrial complex.

Speaker 1 (02:41):
Yep.

Speaker 4 (02:42):
And we're eventually going to get together and they're both
going to go up.

Speaker 2 (02:46):
Maam, Okay.

Speaker 3 (02:48):
I know we're all supposed to hate that guy, but
what if he's the only one telling us the truth
right now?

Speaker 1 (02:52):
Yeah, somebody will probably do something to him pretty soon.
We won't have to worry about him.

Speaker 3 (02:57):
There's a lot of discussion today over whether or not
the people at DOGE did any good for the government.
One of the people that hated Doge the most was
Randy Winegarden. If you don't know who that is, gentlemen,
get out a photo of Randy Winegarden and take a
good long look at it. The next time you're making
coitus and you don't want to finish too soon, just
think about that photo. I don't like to think about
dudes while I'm doing it. Man, No, Randy is a

(03:19):
check I think, what never mind? Are you sure Randy Winegarden?
You remember when Randy, the national president of the Teachers' Union,
claimed it was cruelty for Doge to audit the Department
of Education. Turns out her own union was spending two
hundred thousand dollars a year a month or on limo
rides chof and frankly, a whole bunch of cruelty, because

(03:41):
at the end of the.

Speaker 2 (03:42):
Day, you can make departments more efficient.

Speaker 3 (03:46):
And I'm not a big believer in bureaucracy, but this
feels like, as Elon Muff said to you of visceration.
So here, boy, I wish it was you know, you
would love avisceraate a viscerate give me the avisceration.

Speaker 1 (04:00):
Uh yeah, Well, she's education lady, so she has to
use in words every now and then, so you'll have
to go hunh Yeah, here's what that means.

Speaker 2 (04:08):
Here's a new few today.

Speaker 3 (04:09):
We didn't expect to get Hunter Biden versus Melania Trump. Yeah,
that's a thing. Milania Trump is uh, actually met Donald
Trump through a friend that was involved in the modeling industry.
It's kind of a famous story about how they met
each other. She came over here to work in the
modeling industry, was introduced to Trump, they fell in love,
they got married.

Speaker 1 (04:29):
Trump said, hubba, hubba, look at that.

Speaker 3 (04:31):
Yeah, Hunter Biden is out telling people it was Jeffrey
Epstein who introduced them, which, oh my god, which I
don't think is true.

Speaker 5 (04:38):
I've seen introduced Milania to Trump. The connections are like
so wide and deep. Anyway, why do we think they
don't want the files released?

Speaker 2 (04:49):
I don't know.

Speaker 5 (04:50):
I think you know that that that thing that John
Howland says is like a long time ago, I think
is the most accurate kind of assessment of them, which
is everything is projection.

Speaker 1 (05:02):
Or confession Milania versus Hunter. But really, shouldn't it be
Donald Trump who goes over there and clocks him, because
the man's he diss and your old lady, you know,
And that's my lady. I got to go over there
and defend her honor. I'm gonna put one, you know,
cross his eyes. Man, I'm in no way at all

(05:24):
justifying violence. But you gotta admit you insult a man's woman.
You are asking to get punched, you right, you know? Yeah,
so you watch yourself out there. I don't let anybody
disrespect my woman. Hell no, who's your woman? It's just
me and the dog.

Speaker 2 (05:39):
Yeah, but still I wouldn't. I wouldn't, though, No, you
better not.

Speaker 1 (05:43):
Obviously, Hunter in his cute little way, they're innocent little way,
is is basically trying to say that Milania was one
of the Epstein Island whores and Epstein said, here, go
hang out with this guy Trump. And that's very rude

(06:04):
to say something like that.

Speaker 2 (06:05):
It never happened.

Speaker 3 (06:06):
It's a big, bold face lie, like what John Cornyan
did yesterday on Twitter.

Speaker 1 (06:12):
X x uh huh.

Speaker 3 (06:14):
John Cornyn yesterday was getting trolled pretty hard by an
op ed writer at the Houston Chronicles, right, and everybody
was aghast at how stupid he looked.

Speaker 1 (06:24):
Do we know if John read your article in the Chronicle.

Speaker 2 (06:27):
I have a good feeling he did.

Speaker 3 (06:29):
But the point is he took to Twitter yesterday to
tell people it's not true I didn't pass a gun
control bill with Joe Biden.

Speaker 2 (06:36):
Oh whoa wait a.

Speaker 1 (06:36):
Minute, Wait a minute. That kind of thing ought to
be on the record if it did or didn't happen.

Speaker 3 (06:41):
It turns out there's actually an article in the Texas
Tribune from twenty twenty three in which John Corny says
it was paramount that we passed.

Speaker 2 (06:49):
It was very important. He has now been fact checked.

Speaker 3 (06:52):
John Corny teamed up with other Republicans to pass the
twenty twenty two gun bill pushed by Democrats.

Speaker 2 (06:57):
He may not remember, but the internet is forever.

Speaker 1 (07:00):
So he Do you think he just has a terrible
memory as he got older, you know he's got suffering
memory loss or the early stages of Alzheimer's that he
didn't remember it. Or is it possible that a politician
just flat out lied to us, like looked us in
the eye and just lied and said that never happened

(07:21):
and we know it did.

Speaker 3 (07:22):
I know it's not a yes or no question, but
I think the answer is still yes. And so have
you ever met someone that lies so much that they
start to believe their own lie.

Speaker 5 (07:30):
God.

Speaker 1 (07:30):
Yeah, that's the best liar the Clintons, obviously, I mean
Bill the King. He is so genuine when he tells
you things that he didn't do, and you know he did,
but he has told himself so many times, so many
over and over again, he now believes him.

Speaker 3 (07:50):
Is there a word for that when people lie? So,
I guess a pathological liar atho.

Speaker 1 (07:54):
Psycho psychopath, psychopathologically a line.

Speaker 3 (07:59):
I think the word is myth amanium. Right, it's if
you lie so often that you begin to believe your
own lie. The pathological lying becomes part of your your psyche,
It becomes part of your it becomes part.

Speaker 2 (08:11):
Of your your reality.

Speaker 3 (08:13):
And that is a terrifying thing to think that most
politicians in America probably have that. Certainly, Senior Senator of
Texas John Cornyn Dude is down by over twenty points
right now, recently had a meeting with high value donors
in the Houston area where he told him I'm gonna
need seventy million dollars to beat Ken Paxton. And he

(08:34):
told him, but if you don't pay me seventy million,
then you're gonna have to give Ken Paxton two hundred
million to win in the general election next year. And
I don't think I think half of what he said
might be true.

Speaker 1 (08:46):
Maybe sure, it is true that he would love seventy
million dollars, so would I. Yeah, but it it looks
like that might be money down a down a hole
that you're not gonna get back, and you won't get
anything for.

Speaker 3 (09:00):
Listen to me, someday you're gonna die, so you should
give me seventy million dollars so I can work real
hard to protect you because you don't want to die, right,
I don't want to do that. I mean, you're gonna
die anyway. But and the seventy million really has nothing
to do with it. But anyway, here's Senator Bernie Sanders.
Have you seen the Sydney Sweeney ad, Senator, And if so,
what did you think about it?

Speaker 1 (09:21):
Yes?

Speaker 6 (09:21):
I saw the ad, and okay, the young woman does
have big, beautiful breasts. But let's not lose sight of
what's important. We are the party of ugly fat people.
We can't just allow these Republicans to put a beautiful
white young woman in their ads. We need to keep
putting fat, ugly bitches in our ads.

Speaker 1 (09:38):
You know, stay woke, stay tuned for more. Waltman Johnson
to this and that's good for you this early in
the morning.

Speaker 3 (09:45):
This song is probably the only thing I have in
common with Will Smith.

Speaker 1 (09:48):
How you what well he.

Speaker 3 (09:50):
Wants He sang this song in an episode of The
Fresh Prince once.

Speaker 2 (09:53):
I always thought it was a good song.

Speaker 1 (09:54):
I must have missed it dad an eight when that happened.
That's not for people like you, Billy.

Speaker 3 (09:59):
That's for people in the community, you know, like me
and mister Oh you know the community.

Speaker 1 (10:04):
Yeah, me and Kenny yep.

Speaker 2 (10:06):
If we keep a real deal holy field around here.

Speaker 1 (10:08):
We keep it well. I know my place, you know,
y'all keep me in my place.

Speaker 2 (10:12):
While we're trying.

Speaker 3 (10:13):
You know, the problem with you, problem with you, Whitey,
is you come around here bossing us around, trying to
tell us what you're not.

Speaker 2 (10:20):
My boss man. Yeah yeah, you're not to pay you
my biles?

Speaker 3 (10:23):
Yeah yeah, I pay his bills too, no obil oh yeah, no,
he pays his own bills.

Speaker 2 (10:27):
I'll pay you, no, wy, I hope not.

Speaker 6 (10:29):
No.

Speaker 4 (10:30):
Uh.

Speaker 3 (10:30):
Earlier, you asked a question off the air, and I
don't I don't think we asked this. Did you ask
on the air what quiet cracking is because I looked
it up.

Speaker 1 (10:38):
I don't know what that is.

Speaker 6 (10:40):
Now.

Speaker 1 (10:40):
There was quiet quitting. That was a thing. I don't
know if it was just because of the COVID situation
or what, but quiet quitting people just didn't go to
work anymore. But they didn't actually tell anybody that they
were quitting. They just I guess they continue to get paid.

Speaker 2 (10:57):
For a while.

Speaker 1 (10:57):
I don't know.

Speaker 3 (10:58):
There were two definitions of quiet quitting as far as
I could tell. One of them was if you were
working from home and you just like you just described it.
That's what I would have assumed it was. But another
definition of it is you keep going to work, but
you just don't try hard.

Speaker 1 (11:12):
You just don't do anything.

Speaker 3 (11:13):
Wait, so that's what everyone's doing all the time anyway,
they kid, do I have all those meetings all these businesses.

Speaker 1 (11:19):
I mean, luckily here in radio we don't deal with
that kind of stuff very often, but most businesses and
people I know that work in companies, they'll tell you
that we have meetings about meetings to plan other meetings,
and at some point you just got to sit back
and just nod off, not even participate anymore.

Speaker 3 (11:38):
The other day at my gym, there was a person
from corporate America and a person from academia, both great people,
good friends of mine, and they started having a polite
argument over whose industry has more pointless meetings, and I, boy,
I just felt empathy for both of them. The person
in academia was like, no, we have meetings to talk
about meetings to talk about meetings. And then the guy

(11:59):
in corporate, because we have meetings for meetings to talk
about meetings for meetings that we're not going to have,
and we have a meeting to cancel a meeting exactly,
It's like, good God, but we're not talking about quiet quitting.

Speaker 1 (12:09):
Somebody brought up quiet cracking.

Speaker 3 (12:12):
Yeah, if quiet quitting was the poster child at workplace
issues over the past few years, it's not anymore. There's
a new problem employers have to watch out for. It's
called quiet cracking. It's when workers show up, they do
their job, but they struggle in silence while they do it.
And again, kind of like the latter version of whatever
quiet quitting is, and not just what.

Speaker 2 (12:32):
Everyone's doing all the time anyway.

Speaker 3 (12:34):
I think so we have a word now for when
people lose it but they don't tell anyone.

Speaker 1 (12:38):
They just go off.

Speaker 2 (12:40):
I've been doing that my whole.

Speaker 1 (12:41):
Life, right, you're doing it right now, I think.

Speaker 3 (12:43):
All right, So the in a little bit, in the
current job market, you have many workers avoiding leaving their
jobs even if they're unhappy, because economic uncertainty is obviously exist.
Hiring is down. They claim job switching is now worse
for wage growth than sticking it out, And a lot
of folks actually feel where they are so quiet. Crackings
just when you lose your mind, but you don't let

(13:04):
anyone know about it.

Speaker 1 (13:05):
Okay, so you don't go get a gun or anything.
You lose your mind, but you don't go off. So
in some ways then it kind of seem like it's better.

Speaker 3 (13:15):
I remember going postal, right, Going postal was when you
lose your mind at where could kill everyone, and you
do show signs of being cracked, right exactly. So yeah,
Like I hate to be the I hate to be
the person that just dismisses this, but it feels like
it's improving. It's like the male loneliness epidemic. What's that,

(13:35):
asked me to a liberal white feminist. Well, nowadays men
just aren't in touch with their emotions like they used
to be, when were what compared to what? Well, back
during World War Two, guys would sit around in the
fox hole and tell their fellows, soldiers and comrades how
sad they were and they just have these deep No
they didn't, they were dodging grenade.

Speaker 2 (13:55):
What are you talking about?

Speaker 1 (13:57):
Well, maybe the fact that Mormon are getting in touch
with their emotions and their their feelings and feel more
comfortable expressing that in public might be why the Nebraska
A football team, the punter is in the news this morning.

Speaker 2 (14:17):
Mister Ow, did you tell me could do this?

Speaker 4 (14:19):
Is?

Speaker 1 (14:19):
Oh no, no, no, no, But I have no idea
what he's talking about, so I might as well let
him ramble.

Speaker 3 (14:25):
Oh I did not have the sports. It sorts well,
you brought up sports and go sports and it's sponsored,
of course by this great sponsor.

Speaker 1 (14:34):
Well, of course, the folks over at my Pillow would
like you to know that they got some products that
they have selected especially just for you, at a price
that you're gonna love.

Speaker 2 (14:45):
I do love a price that I love and you
can get those low.

Speaker 3 (14:49):
Prices at my pillow dot com when you use promo
code WJ. We know you've heard other radio shows and
podcasters tell you to use their promo code. Oh that's
that's no good, but don't for two reasons. Number one,
a bunch of douchebags. Number two, we're nice guys. Number
number two and a half. If we ever ran into
you in public, we'd probably buy.

Speaker 2 (15:07):
You a beer. They're not gonna do that.

Speaker 1 (15:08):
We could.

Speaker 3 (15:09):
So you used promo code WJ because we deserve it,
and so do you save a lot of money those
little sports Nebraska football.

Speaker 2 (15:16):
Yeah, this better be good, mister Kenneth.

Speaker 1 (15:19):
Well, I don't think you're gonna like it, but it's
it's news. I saw him on on National, the Fox
National broadcast this morning. All right, shut it in the
pumpter for the Nebraska football team. That's corn Huskers by
the way. Yeah we know whatever his name is. Archie.
Archie was doing his first press conference. He's he's new

(15:40):
to the team. He's he's not from here. He's from Australia,
you know where real men come from. And during his
first press conference yesterday, somebody asked him about being so
far away from home, and that's when he broke down
in tears and started crying at the podium. I mean,
he actually like had to lay his head down. It

(16:03):
was so emotional for him. He misses his mom and
dad and his two brothers back in Australia. There's no
crying in football.

Speaker 2 (16:16):
They have football in Australia. I thought they called it soccer.

Speaker 1 (16:18):
Soccer's football or they kick things in Australia and for
some reason they're really good at it. So we got
a kicker up here now. But he didn't say he
missed football. He just said he missed his family.

Speaker 3 (16:31):
You know what, I don't care. How come all the
people that like soccer don't like kickball? Kickball is fun.
You ever play kickball as a kid?

Speaker 1 (16:37):
I sure did. The big red balls they're smack in
the face and stuff.

Speaker 3 (16:41):
Yeah that was fun, right, And you know it's like
red ball smacking you in the face. I wish I
went to your school. No, it's not what he's talking about,
mister Kenneth. Why do you have to make everything gross?

Speaker 2 (16:51):
All right? Anyway?

Speaker 3 (16:52):
And other sports related news Sports going home beside the
Nebraska guy crying. Astros beat the Red Sox yesterday four
to one. A little bit of a comeback there from

win again. Like last night. Why do they have two
different teams.

Well, similar thing just happened with the Braves and the Mets.
The Braves came back and beat the Mets eleven to six.
And of the teams in baseball that we actively cover,
the Rangers lost to the Arizona Diamondbacks six to four.

No, the Titans and the Falcons are practicing against each
other during the week and then tomorrow night they'll suit
up and play the game. But practicing with the other
team calls the quarterback to I believe that they said
he exchanged pleasantries members of the defense and at some

(20:01):
point I guess it got a little too insulting because
it was a bench clearing brawl is what it turned into.

Speaker 2 (20:08):
Wow, at bench clearing brawl. That's the worst kind of brawl.
