Speaker 1 (00:05):
Always am I on time? Did I make it? I
heard there's going to be another Can on the show
besides you and me.

Speaker 2 (00:26):
That's true.

Speaker 3 (00:27):
There are three people on this radio show named Kenneth
at the exact same moment.

Speaker 2 (00:30):
That's got to be very confusing.

Speaker 1 (00:32):
Well not yet, but there will be, if you know,
if Ken calls.

Speaker 3 (00:35):
But only one of them led anti human trafficking advert
efforts that included the arrest of backpage dot Com ceo
and the platform shutdown. Only one of them strengthen child
support enforcement to the tune of four point eight billion dollars.

Speaker 2 (00:48):
You're welcome, No you didn't.

Speaker 3 (00:50):
Only one of them fought federal overreach, filing dozens of
lawsuits against both the Obama administration and the Biden administration
with over a seventy five percent favorable ruling. Only one
of them secured one point three seven five billion dollars
settlement against Google for illegal data tracking. Only one of
them won major cases on immigration, school rights, EPA regulations,

(01:11):
in religious freedom.

Speaker 1 (01:12):
I've already forgot who we're talking about now.

Speaker 3 (01:15):
Only one of them negotiate a fifty million dollars settlement
with Volkswagen over emissions violations. One of who we only
one of who the three people named Kenneth that are
on this show right now, the three stages who I
don't know what. There's you, there's me, there's him, that's him. Yeah,
this guy on the phone, that's the attorney General Ken Paxton,
probably the best attorney general in the country. I think

(01:36):
you go to General Paxton. I think, well, that's what
our friend Tony Buzby calls him. All right, Dan, what
is the right attorney general? Ken Paxton? We Tony calls
you General Paxton? Is that what we're supposed to say?

Speaker 4 (01:48):
How you can call me Ken? It's the official title
always for an attorney general. That's just me obviously, any
state attorney general, US attorney general is you refer to
him as general whatever they were last name is General
Bondi or whatever.

Speaker 1 (02:03):
Feels pretty good, huh.

Speaker 2 (02:04):
I think that's pretty cool.

Speaker 3 (02:05):
But I've never heard anyone say it anywhere in the
media or anywhere except Tony Busby, who, for the record,
does know quite a bit about the law.

Speaker 2 (02:12):
He's a pretty good lawyer like you.

Speaker 1 (02:13):
He's coming along.

Speaker 4 (02:17):
I'd have to agree with you on that. He's pretty good,
and he's coming along.

Speaker 2 (02:20):
Ken.

Speaker 3 (02:20):
You are obviously on friendly grounds right now. I don't
know if you read my op ed in the Chronicle
recently or any of my tweets, but we are not
big fans of this neokon stooge, warmonger, parasite politician that
you're going up against right now for SMO. Yeah right,
I oh, yeah, that'd probably be a good one. Don't
like we don't like John. What do we do about that?

Speaker 4 (02:42):
Well, that's you keep talking about it because you know,
obviously he's going to spend a ton of money from
Washington d C. To try to convince us that the
old John doesn't exist, that the new John that suddenly
became a conservative that loves Trump is the real John Corn.
But we all know that that's the fake John Corn
that we got to tell people about.

Speaker 5 (03:00):
Say this, if you look at his commercials, him and
Trump are like this man, They're tight, They're like Siamese Twins.

Speaker 3 (03:05):
Yeah, but he deceptively edited one of his TV commercials
to make it sound like he was being impeached. Ken
is that legal? It seemed like that. That seems unethical
at the very least, right.

Speaker 4 (03:16):
Uh, escal, I mean John is running in them of
unethcal campaign just completely acting like he's loved Trump his
whole life. Uh huh, well, when the reality is that's
just not true. He's not been a Trump's sport. He's
been against him. He didn't support him in this last election.
He didn't support him in the previous election. He was
telling us that he was even insinuating that he was

(03:36):
guilty of this Russian hoax.

Speaker 2 (03:38):
So sure that's true.

Speaker 3 (03:39):
Now, I find none of the two things I'm about
to tell you that he's been telling people.

Speaker 2 (03:43):
To be true.

Speaker 3 (03:44):
But supposedly the corn In campaign, led by a guy
named Matt mccoeac who some allege used his Venmo account
to hire a Lady of the night, I'm told that
they've been telling donors that they needed seventy million dollars
to beat you in the primary, or the donor would
have to cough up two million dollars for you to
beat Beto O'Rourke.

Speaker 2 (04:03):
I can't wait to hear your reaction to that.

Speaker 4 (04:06):
Well, yeah, yeah, yeah, they were saying that it would
cost two hundred million for me to win. It's another
made up fact.

Speaker 2 (04:12):
They have no.

Speaker 4 (04:13):
Basis for that, because I've won statewide after state wide
election after statewide election, and so this idea that somehow
they're going to have to spend more on even with him.
The polling doesn't indicate that, and they don't have any
basis in fact for saying it. They just make stuff up. Yeah,
they all right.

Speaker 2 (04:29):
So I love this today.

Speaker 3 (04:30):
One of the news stories that broke in the last
forty eight hours here that frankly should get more attention.
Beto o'rouric funded these guys to go up to Chicago,
the rogue Democrat lawmakers. You are now trying to shut
down that political organization. This is the perfect example of
right wing populism at work. Most people don't even realize
this is possible. Can you explain what's going on here?

Speaker 4 (04:52):
Yeah? So we my job as attorney Zental oversee charities,
public charities, make sure they're not deceiving people. We were
pretty convinced that det Orok in his organization, we're telling
people they were raising money for political contributions, when in
reality it was just fund these legislators that left Texas
and pay for their personal expenses. So we got a
temporary restraining order. We stopped the funding, which I think

(05:14):
largely contributed to them coming back because only was he
paying their five hundred dollars day fines. They was paying
all of their expenses. And as soon as we got
a restraining order to stop that, guess what, the Democrats
showed back up. Because there's nobody paying the bills anymore.

Speaker 5 (05:29):
Did they accomplish anything by leaving? Because now they're back
and there's going to there's another special session? Right so
won't they still be required to vote?

Speaker 4 (05:38):
Yes, they will. And you know they're claiming that it
was a big success they stopped the first special session.
I mean, it's a pyrrhic victory. There's nothing special about
making it slowing down the voting process by thirty days.
They just they just slowed things down, got a lot
of attention, and you know, we're going to move on
and get this thing done.

Speaker 5 (05:58):
I think the most exciting part that those Democrats that
took off was the fact that Barack Obama came along
and hugged them. And you know that that's worth well.
I mean, you can't put a price tag on something
like that. It was a big supporter. Now, you know
one other thing that might get you some positive publicity.
I don't know if you've seen what the Trump was

(06:20):
doing yesterday trying to negotiate a piece between Russia and Ukraine.
You're sure, right, yeah, maybe you could, you know, negotiate
some kind of a peace agreement between the Aggies and
the Longhorns.

Speaker 2 (06:31):
That's a great question, Attorney General Paxton. Can that be done?

Speaker 4 (06:36):
Well? You know, I think that the negotiation was to
get them to play football against each other again. That's happening.
I think most Texans both schools are happy about that,
even though they may not be rooting for the other teams.

Speaker 5 (06:49):
I say that's a good I don't fix it because
it's probably best if they are at war with each
other in the SEC.

Speaker 1 (06:57):
That's that's how you live, all.

Speaker 2 (06:58):
Right, in all serious and is breakfast time right now?
And this isn't nothing. People always associate RFK.

Speaker 3 (07:05):
Junior with the MAHA movement, but you as well have
made great leaps and bounds to accomplish things for them.
The Kellogg's agreement pretty big news here because of you.
Kellogg's is going to take some dangerous chemicals out of
their breakfast cereal. Why was that on you, the Attorney
General at Ken Paxton. That seems like something the federal
government should have done, And yet you're the one that
stepped up and did it.

Speaker 4 (07:28):
Yeah, it's a good question why it wasn't done sooner,
because clearly these chemicals that they put in the serials
are doing damage to our kids. There's studies and different
effects that are very negative, and so I don't know,
just we just started realizing that nothing had been done,
that the federal government wasn't doing anything about it. So
we started the investigation and thankfully Kellogg's agreed to take

(07:50):
these dies and other chemicals out of their their cereals
that we believe are harming children.

Speaker 3 (07:56):
Oh my god, I forgot to ask you about this.
John Cornyn recently claimed on Twitter that he doesn't remember
in twenty twenty two June twenty third, twenty twenty two,
when he helped pass the bipartisan Safer Communities Actor red
Flag law for Joe Biden. Is it possible that John
Cornyn suffers from the same bit of dementia that the
former president had.

Speaker 4 (08:18):
Well, that's you know, that's a question. I don't know
his mental health, but that is either a lie or
he is suffering some type of mental health issue, whatever
that is. If he can't remember being a part of
he was congratulated by Joe Biden for helping restrict our
Second Amendment rights, and now he's acting like he doesn't
remember that. It's a little shocking.

Speaker 3 (08:40):
He has had some very embarrassing moments on Twitter recently.
That obviously was one of them. He also posted a
photo of himself reading art of the Deal, like forty
years after the book came out. He posted a photo
of himself at trump Berger, which I guess is now
in the news because it was apparently owned by an
illegal alien.

Speaker 1 (08:57):
Or some one of the silent owners was suddenly illegal.

Speaker 3 (09:00):
And then who could forget the photo of his brisket
which he cooked in the oven, covered in ketchup jet awful?

Speaker 1 (09:07):
Do you know how to do you make a good
brisk get there?

Speaker 4 (09:10):
General, Well, I can make one better than what I
saw him cooking. It does not look appetizing.

Speaker 1 (09:15):
I'll say that it was nasty.

Speaker 3 (09:16):
If you had to just pick one, Which of those
moments on social media was his most embarrassing And how
do we trace it back to his con director Matthew
Venmo Mkoyak if you had to, I guess they all
are associated with him, right, yep.

Speaker 4 (09:29):
Yes they are. He Mkoviak is working for John corn
Is his communications director, which is an interesting choice, Matt
being not the most respected communications director in the world.

Speaker 3 (09:40):
I don't expect most people to know who that is
that are listening to morning talk radio. Matt is like
the most hated guy in Texas politics. After we pointed
out the Venmo thing on social media, just someone else
reported it, not us.

Speaker 2 (09:52):
I started getting phone calls and text messages for.

Speaker 3 (09:55):
People I never even heard of telling me what an
absolute disgrace that guy is. Ken, we cannot get you
into that Senate position fast enough. If it's a two
man race between you and him, I think it's a
no brainer that he's got to go. How do people
support your campaign?

Speaker 4 (10:11):
We need we need help at Kenpax dot com. I
mean Kim Pax. That comment at Kim pax and tx
is our Twitter handle, But we definitely need we need
help because he raises a lot of money in DC.
We're having to raise it from this regular people who
want a change, and so if people have the ability,
please contribute whatever you can.

Speaker 3 (10:30):
As an attorney, what advice would you have given to
Matt mccoyac about the Venmo thing?

Speaker 2 (10:35):
If any don't do that?

Speaker 4 (10:37):
Oh, I don't know. I don't know the details.

Speaker 1 (10:41):
Are you currently ahead in this race according to pollsters?

Speaker 4 (10:46):
Yes, every poll I've seen has any head that. You know,
John corn is trying to pitch some new poles that
says he's closing the gap. I don't think that's true.
I think we're still very far ahead of him, and
he's going to continue to try to tell people that.
You know, he's gaining ground. He's spending millions of dollars,
and you know people are being fooled by his rhetoric.

Speaker 2 (11:08):
Ken, we are We're behind you, man. We want you
to win. We got to go to break.

Speaker 3 (11:12):
If you could hang for twenty seconds, we want to
ask you something off the air real quick. That's kind
of funny. Sure cool, hey for keeping no trust me,
it's worth a quick break. We'll be ready to beat.
