1
00:00:03,920 --> 00:00:11,840
Speaker 1: It's that time time time, luck and load. So Michael

2
00:00:11,920 --> 00:00:13,880
Speaker 1: Barry Show is on the air.

3
00:00:19,079 --> 00:00:23,280
Speaker 2: Out lights. You'll get into Mica week. You gotta feed

4
00:00:23,400 --> 00:00:27,680
Speaker 2: a beard. I don't plan to shave, and it's good thing,

5
00:00:27,880 --> 00:00:32,120
Speaker 2: but I just gotta see I'm doing it all right.

6
00:00:33,200 --> 00:00:38,040
Speaker 2: Will you come make me support? It's beating rid of

7
00:00:38,240 --> 00:00:44,320
Speaker 2: un that's the truth. It's neither drinking, no drug indunool.

8
00:00:44,600 --> 00:00:46,319
Speaker 2: I'm just doing all right.

9
00:00:47,520 --> 00:00:52,760
Speaker 3: It's okay, dad be I know the sun's still shining.

10
00:00:53,240 --> 00:00:58,160
Speaker 2: Close my eyes. It's hard times in the neighborhood. But

11
00:00:58,440 --> 00:01:04,760
Speaker 2: whyking every day? I was driving to the studio this

12
00:01:04,880 --> 00:01:08,160
Speaker 2: morning and I saw carry a guy carrying a scrabble board,

13
00:01:08,680 --> 00:01:12,800
Speaker 2: which is not something you see every day. And I'm

14
00:01:12,840 --> 00:01:17,160
Speaker 2: watching him acting odd, and then he trips and the

15
00:01:17,280 --> 00:01:20,520
Speaker 2: tiles went everywhere, and I pulled up beside him. I

16
00:01:20,560 --> 00:01:28,520
Speaker 2: couldn't help but asked, what's the word on the street.

17
00:01:30,040 --> 00:01:33,320
Speaker 2: What's the word on the street? What do you call

18
00:01:33,400 --> 00:01:45,200
Speaker 2: a scientist that studies carbonation? A physicist? A physicist? I

19
00:01:45,319 --> 00:01:47,720
Speaker 2: do that again. Now you know the answer, because I'm

20
00:01:47,720 --> 00:01:50,360
Speaker 2: not a pronunciate ramon. What do you call a scientist

21
00:01:50,400 --> 00:02:02,840
Speaker 2: that studies carbonation? A physicist, so prouder Ramona. He's lost

22
00:02:02,920 --> 00:02:06,040
Speaker 2: so much weight. He's finally managed to conquer his addiction

23
00:02:06,160 --> 00:02:12,360
Speaker 2: to chocolate, marshmallows and nuts. But it's been a rocky road.

24
00:02:17,919 --> 00:02:21,600
Speaker 2: I say marsh mellow instead of marsh mallow. Does he

25
00:02:21,639 --> 00:02:25,040
Speaker 2: even say marshmallow? Do you know anybody? Can we identify

26
00:02:25,080 --> 00:02:33,360
Speaker 2: anybody that says marshmallow? We say marshmallow? Well, I was

27
00:02:33,400 --> 00:02:35,960
Speaker 2: starting to think it wouldn't happen. Now it looks like

28
00:02:36,000 --> 00:02:39,160
Speaker 2: it will. Wesley Hunt is in the Senate race, telling

29
00:02:39,200 --> 00:02:42,480
Speaker 2: the Associated Press what I've seen in polling over the

30
00:02:42,560 --> 00:02:46,760
Speaker 2: last few months is people want an alternative, and I'm

31
00:02:46,880 --> 00:02:53,160
Speaker 2: going to give it to them. The uh, the DC

32
00:02:53,320 --> 00:03:01,440
Speaker 2: swamp has protected Corning for a long time. That's why

33
00:03:01,480 --> 00:03:05,560
Speaker 2: they tried to take out Paxton, because Paxton has been

34
00:03:05,639 --> 00:03:12,080
Speaker 2: for several years eyeing that Senate seat, and so they've

35
00:03:12,120 --> 00:03:15,520
Speaker 2: done a lot of things to try to harm him,

36
00:03:16,160 --> 00:03:20,760
Speaker 2: not at all, unlike what they did to President Trump

37
00:03:21,200 --> 00:03:24,280
Speaker 2: in between the twenty election and the twenty four If

38
00:03:24,320 --> 00:03:27,920
Speaker 2: we can smear him enough, then he'll be wounded and

39
00:03:27,960 --> 00:03:30,919
Speaker 2: won't be able to run for president. It didn't work.

40
00:03:31,919 --> 00:03:37,560
Speaker 2: I don't know if in Texas these smears, allegations, investigations,

41
00:03:37,640 --> 00:03:42,320
Speaker 2: you lawsuits, divorce, all that will affect Paxton or not,

42
00:03:42,760 --> 00:03:46,400
Speaker 2: because much like Trump, he has made the base very

43
00:03:46,440 --> 00:03:49,760
Speaker 2: happy by doing the sorts of things Trump would do.

44
00:03:50,280 --> 00:03:54,440
Speaker 2: And I don't think you can deny he's one of,

45
00:03:54,560 --> 00:03:58,119
Speaker 2: if not the best attorney general in the country when

46
00:03:58,120 --> 00:04:01,200
Speaker 2: it comes to the actions he's taken. And I think

47
00:04:01,200 --> 00:04:05,480
Speaker 2: that in a Republican primary, that's what's gonna matter most. However,

48
00:04:06,280 --> 00:04:09,600
Speaker 2: Corning is very unpopular and there will be people who

49
00:04:09,640 --> 00:04:14,320
Speaker 2: don't like Corning. There's really nobody that likes Corning. People

50
00:04:14,320 --> 00:04:17,120
Speaker 2: will tolerate Corning and they end up with Corning, but

51
00:04:17,200 --> 00:04:20,440
Speaker 2: nobody is loyal to Corning. I'm sort of amused when

52
00:04:20,440 --> 00:04:23,240
Speaker 2: I see these ads. They try to a bunch of

53
00:04:23,279 --> 00:04:25,280
Speaker 2: small town people, you know, because they try to seem

54
00:04:25,360 --> 00:04:29,480
Speaker 2: like real tasting. I'm just so proud that John Cornyn

55
00:04:29,560 --> 00:04:32,920
Speaker 2: and glad to stick with him. He's protecting our border

56
00:04:32,920 --> 00:04:36,920
Speaker 2: and my little baby girl, Gigi. And this truck here

57
00:04:36,960 --> 00:04:39,960
Speaker 2: I'm a drive and it's American maid and this house

58
00:04:40,000 --> 00:04:42,279
Speaker 2: I'm living in and I'm about to cut my grass

59
00:04:42,279 --> 00:04:45,560
Speaker 2: because I love American and Jesus, John Cornyn, please everybody

60
00:04:46,160 --> 00:04:49,080
Speaker 2: it's so fake and I don't think anybody's buying it.

61
00:04:50,040 --> 00:04:55,800
Speaker 2: So Paxton had to feel to himself. So Paxton versus Corning,

62
00:04:55,839 --> 00:04:58,560
Speaker 2: and we know what the number show. Paxton wins that,

63
00:04:59,040 --> 00:05:03,200
Speaker 2: Corning wins that. Cornyon knows that Paxton wins that. But

64
00:05:04,240 --> 00:05:08,400
Speaker 2: there was a lane and Wesley Hunt saw that for himself. Now,

65
00:05:08,440 --> 00:05:11,440
Speaker 2: as of this summer, it was there were millions of dollars.

66
00:05:11,480 --> 00:05:13,520
Speaker 2: It was one of the biggest adviys in the country

67
00:05:13,560 --> 00:05:17,640
Speaker 2: for a non campaign in a campaign format, and that

68
00:05:17,800 --> 00:05:23,000
Speaker 2: was Wesley Hunt building name ID across the state. The

69
00:05:23,720 --> 00:05:26,560
Speaker 2: establishment in DC is saying, oh, it's going to cost

70
00:05:26,680 --> 00:05:28,400
Speaker 2: us a lot of money. It's going to cost the

71
00:05:28,440 --> 00:05:30,680
Speaker 2: state a lot of money. We don't need a spirited

72
00:05:31,720 --> 00:05:35,120
Speaker 2: primary campaign, but we do well now. Hunt is in

73
00:05:35,680 --> 00:05:38,640
Speaker 2: the Associated Press reports. Hunt has been testing the waters

74
00:05:38,680 --> 00:05:42,400
Speaker 2: as a potential third way for Texas Republicans, as Cornon

75
00:05:42,480 --> 00:05:45,360
Speaker 2: and Paxton have weiged a contentious battle of words in

76
00:05:45,400 --> 00:05:49,839
Speaker 2: the media. Since the spring, Hunt and groups supporting him

77
00:05:50,120 --> 00:05:53,440
Speaker 2: have spent six and a half million dollars on advertising

78
00:05:53,560 --> 00:05:58,159
Speaker 2: in Texas, according to the ad tracking site ad Impact.

79
00:05:58,640 --> 00:06:01,839
Speaker 2: Groups supporting corn however, have spent more than twenty one

80
00:06:01,880 --> 00:06:05,239
Speaker 2: million dollars on television ads this year, according to ad Impact,

81
00:06:05,520 --> 00:06:09,400
Speaker 2: to promote the four term senator and attack Paxton. In

82
00:06:09,480 --> 00:06:14,560
Speaker 2: a September memo, Thune and Scott said that Cordon had

83
00:06:14,680 --> 00:06:18,599
Speaker 2: narrowed his deficit with Paxton and that Hunt quote continues

84
00:06:18,640 --> 00:06:21,600
Speaker 2: to cling to the false narrative he pushed as a

85
00:06:21,720 --> 00:06:26,440
Speaker 2: justification for his own ambitions. In quote, they said in

86
00:06:26,480 --> 00:06:29,240
Speaker 2: their memo, there never was and never will be a

87
00:06:29,360 --> 00:06:33,640
Speaker 2: tenable pathway for Hunt. It's time for the vanity project

88
00:06:33,720 --> 00:06:36,640
Speaker 2: that would cost Republicans control of the Senate and dilute

89
00:06:36,680 --> 00:06:44,320
Speaker 2: our resources to end. When you're saying of a candidate, yeah,

90
00:06:44,360 --> 00:06:47,599
Speaker 2: he can't win, he can't. He can't beat our guy

91
00:06:47,760 --> 00:06:49,719
Speaker 2: that we can control. He can't, he can't win. He

92
00:06:49,720 --> 00:06:57,799
Speaker 2: he shouldn't run. People who know understand the message. That's

93
00:06:57,839 --> 00:07:02,040
Speaker 2: a sign of weakness. They've got polling data that's better

94
00:07:02,080 --> 00:07:04,640
Speaker 2: than any polling data they spend a fortune that you're

95
00:07:04,680 --> 00:07:07,960
Speaker 2: going to see published, and that polling data says Republican

96
00:07:08,000 --> 00:07:14,640
Speaker 2: primary voters voters do not want corning. Hunt argued that

97
00:07:14,720 --> 00:07:19,680
Speaker 2: it Senate Republicans who are wasting money on resources on corning,

98
00:07:20,000 --> 00:07:22,240
Speaker 2: and resources that can be used in other states to

99
00:07:22,320 --> 00:07:25,320
Speaker 2: hold and perhaps expand the majority. This is not a

100
00:07:25,400 --> 00:07:27,640
Speaker 2: vanity project. This is about giving the people to Texas

101
00:07:27,680 --> 00:07:31,520
Speaker 2: a viable alternative. Hunt told the Associated Press, let's stop

102
00:07:31,560 --> 00:07:34,120
Speaker 2: the exercise in futility and get the right person for

103
00:07:34,160 --> 00:07:38,840
Speaker 2: the job. Well, you've got us basically a six month

104
00:07:39,120 --> 00:07:43,240
Speaker 2: campaign until we get to Super Tuesday in the day,

105
00:07:44,760 --> 00:07:49,280
Speaker 2: the Republican Party primary in the state of Texas. Six

106
00:07:49,320 --> 00:07:54,400
Speaker 2: months is not very long now, one advance, one positive

107
00:07:54,680 --> 00:07:57,920
Speaker 2: for Wesley is that he spent six and a half

108
00:07:58,000 --> 00:08:01,840
Speaker 2: million dollars when he had the few to himself. Six

109
00:08:01,880 --> 00:08:05,480
Speaker 2: and a half million dollars between say, Valentine's Day and

110
00:08:05,520 --> 00:08:08,600
Speaker 2: March first, will not go very far because, as you

111
00:08:08,680 --> 00:08:11,720
Speaker 2: remember how this game plays out, if you're watching TV

112
00:08:11,840 --> 00:08:14,000
Speaker 2: or listening to radio, it's just gonna be ad after

113
00:08:14,040 --> 00:08:16,200
Speaker 2: ad after ad for every campaign, and they all run

114
00:08:16,240 --> 00:08:19,960
Speaker 2: together they stopped having any impact. But Wesley Hunt's been

115
00:08:20,000 --> 00:08:23,559
Speaker 2: basically in a field left to himself for this period

116
00:08:23,560 --> 00:08:25,760
Speaker 2: of time. It's gonna be a very very interesting primary

117
00:08:25,840 --> 00:08:29,040
Speaker 2: because Paxton is very popular. It's gonna be interesting. Indeed,

118
00:08:33,400 --> 00:08:41,679
Speaker 2: Matt mccoveac, disgraced former Austin political official who will save that.

119
00:08:41,679 --> 00:08:49,320
Speaker 2: That part now works for John Cornyn, says. Senator Cornyn

120
00:08:49,400 --> 00:08:53,000
Speaker 2: has soared ahead in the latest polling. Really release it

121
00:08:54,120 --> 00:08:59,000
Speaker 2: and we'll win this election. Okay, all right, Saddam Hussein.

122
00:08:59,040 --> 00:09:00,720
Speaker 2: This is going to be the mother of all battles.

123
00:09:01,800 --> 00:09:05,600
Speaker 2: Wesley Hunt is a legend in his own mind. No

124
00:09:05,640 --> 00:09:09,520
Speaker 2: one is happier this morning than the National Democrats who

125
00:09:09,520 --> 00:09:15,400
Speaker 2: are watching Wesley continue his kehatic quest for relevancy, costing

126
00:09:15,480 --> 00:09:18,360
Speaker 2: tens of millions of dollars that will endanger the Trump

127
00:09:18,400 --> 00:09:25,359
Speaker 2: agenda from being passed. It was only a year ago

128
00:09:26,480 --> 00:09:32,320
Speaker 2: that John Cornyn said Donald Trump needs to realize his

129
00:09:32,400 --> 00:09:38,640
Speaker 2: time has passed. The party needs a new nominee. Not

130
00:09:38,679 --> 00:09:44,120
Speaker 2: only is John Cornyan not a partner fan friend of

131
00:09:44,200 --> 00:09:49,280
Speaker 2: Donald Trump's presidency, he didn't want him running as of

132
00:09:49,480 --> 00:09:56,160
Speaker 2: a year ago. As of last calendar year. They think

133
00:09:56,280 --> 00:10:00,800
Speaker 2: Texans are stupid. And if I have anything to do

134
00:10:00,880 --> 00:10:04,440
Speaker 2: with it, I'm going to make sure every Texan understands

135
00:10:04,679 --> 00:10:09,680
Speaker 2: that John Cornyn worked very hard and very publicly to

136
00:10:09,840 --> 00:10:16,120
Speaker 2: keep Donald Trump from running for president last year. That's

137
00:10:16,240 --> 00:10:19,360
Speaker 2: not twenty sixteen before we knew what Trump was going

138
00:10:19,400 --> 00:10:22,520
Speaker 2: to do if he had his way. A matter of

139
00:10:22,600 --> 00:10:26,840
Speaker 2: days ago, he was very public talking to the media

140
00:10:28,040 --> 00:10:32,200
Speaker 2: using whatever influence he thinks he has to keep Trump

141
00:10:32,240 --> 00:10:37,520
Speaker 2: out of the race. Ramot, You know when you're on

142
00:10:37,600 --> 00:10:39,960
Speaker 2: a road stop and you get a hankering for something

143
00:10:40,040 --> 00:10:43,320
Speaker 2: quick and easy, of course it has to have a

144
00:10:43,640 --> 00:10:48,440
Speaker 2: drive through dairy queen. Yeah, that's a good one. You

145
00:10:48,480 --> 00:10:51,120
Speaker 2: get Tacos or hunger Buster. What do you get? You

146
00:10:51,160 --> 00:10:56,719
Speaker 2: get the tacos, the good tacos, hunger Buster. That's a

147
00:10:56,760 --> 00:11:01,120
Speaker 2: good choice as well. If there's not dairy quint around,

148
00:11:01,520 --> 00:11:07,080
Speaker 2: where do you stop? Water Birder? Okay, why water Bird?

149
00:11:08,200 --> 00:11:14,840
Speaker 2: Because it's always right there. I guess, Sion, I guess

150
00:11:14,880 --> 00:11:20,719
Speaker 2: you knew that. Do you have that clip from Vengeance? Oh?

151
00:11:20,760 --> 00:11:23,000
Speaker 2: You know what. You've moved computers, So I thought you

152
00:11:23,000 --> 00:11:25,040
Speaker 2: were looking out the win. You confuse me. You normally

153
00:11:25,120 --> 00:11:27,480
Speaker 2: look to your right, you're looking to your left. Here's

154
00:11:27,559 --> 00:11:36,280
Speaker 2: the clip from Vengeance. Well theoretically this would, but now

155
00:11:36,320 --> 00:11:37,040
Speaker 2: we'd be listening.

156
00:11:38,640 --> 00:11:41,280
Speaker 4: Tell me something that you love about where you live.

157
00:11:41,720 --> 00:11:42,600
Speaker 2: Water Burger?

158
00:11:43,000 --> 00:11:48,520
Speaker 4: Okay, great, tell me about it right now? Yeah, all right,

159
00:11:48,840 --> 00:11:50,920
Speaker 4: you want to know, Just tell me about it.

160
00:11:51,160 --> 00:11:54,000
Speaker 2: You're gonna love water Burger. Ben Oh, it's the best.

161
00:11:54,720 --> 00:11:58,120
Speaker 2: What makes it the best? Wherever you are, there's a water.

162
00:11:57,880 --> 00:12:03,400
Speaker 4: Burger, Yeah, it's always right there, Okay, And then when

163
00:12:03,440 --> 00:12:04,840
Speaker 4: you get there, what do you like about it?

164
00:12:04,840 --> 00:12:08,560
Speaker 2: What do you get? Whatever you want? Whatever you want.

165
00:12:08,360 --> 00:12:11,640
Speaker 4: Then, right, But there are a lot of places like that.

166
00:12:12,040 --> 00:12:15,880
Speaker 4: So let's say there's a McDonald's, a Burger King, a Sonic,

167
00:12:15,880 --> 00:12:17,679
Speaker 4: and a Waterburger all lined up.

168
00:12:18,559 --> 00:12:19,319
Speaker 2: Which one you go to?

169
00:12:20,040 --> 00:12:21,200
Speaker 4: Water right?

170
00:12:21,400 --> 00:12:21,600
Speaker 2: Right?

171
00:12:21,720 --> 00:12:29,200
Speaker 4: Why? But they're all right there in this scenario, they're

172
00:12:29,280 --> 00:12:34,960
Speaker 4: all right there. So what do you get out of

173
00:12:35,080 --> 00:12:37,920
Speaker 4: water Burger? What makes it better to you? What are

174
00:12:37,920 --> 00:12:38,360
Speaker 4: you getting?

175
00:12:40,200 --> 00:12:42,360
Speaker 3: Ask him why you love water Burgers, like asking why

176
00:12:42,360 --> 00:12:46,040
Speaker 3: you love Christmas or summer night or why you love

177
00:12:46,080 --> 00:12:49,079
Speaker 3: your dog. I mean, you could point to the reasons,

178
00:12:49,120 --> 00:12:52,360
Speaker 3: but the reasons aren't really the point. You just love it,

179
00:12:53,200 --> 00:12:54,360
Speaker 3: and that's how love works.

180
00:12:57,400 --> 00:13:02,400
Speaker 2: Well, the Voice of the water was fired, even though

181
00:13:02,400 --> 00:13:06,720
Speaker 2: he was a Californian. He had captured the essence of

182
00:13:06,800 --> 00:13:12,280
Speaker 2: the Texas Burger joint, the down home feel, and when

183
00:13:12,320 --> 00:13:18,920
Speaker 2: Waburger sold out, they got rid of him. Well, John

184
00:13:19,000 --> 00:13:24,040
Speaker 2: Cornyn is sold out, but it sounds like his campaign

185
00:13:24,120 --> 00:13:28,920
Speaker 2: has hired the voice of the Whataburger commercials back when

186
00:13:29,240 --> 00:13:32,840
Speaker 2: they were using that, and now he is very eager

187
00:13:32,880 --> 00:13:37,400
Speaker 2: for you to believe that he is one of Trump.

188
00:13:40,400 --> 00:13:47,680
Speaker 1: John Wayne mccarnyon. He once balanced the budget at home

189
00:13:48,760 --> 00:13:53,839
Speaker 1: with his wife. When he enters a room, he's there.

190
00:13:54,520 --> 00:13:57,520
Speaker 1: He once started a fire just so he could fight

191
00:13:58,320 --> 00:14:02,640
Speaker 1: another FIREQUI refuse to bte him out of respect for

192
00:14:02,720 --> 00:14:07,280
Speaker 1: his best good friend Donald J. Trump. He's never been lost.

193
00:14:07,920 --> 00:14:13,200
Speaker 1: He just navigates the political wins. Like Magellan. Lobbyists declare

194
00:14:13,360 --> 00:14:17,480
Speaker 1: him on their tax returns as a dependent. He doesn't

195
00:14:17,640 --> 00:14:18,640
Speaker 1: drain the swamp.

196
00:14:19,720 --> 00:14:21,720
Speaker 2: He is the swamp.

197
00:14:23,040 --> 00:14:26,160
Speaker 1: John Wayne mcconneck, he's.

198
00:14:26,080 --> 00:14:37,320
Speaker 2: One of us femails coming in. Can Wesley Hunt win, Well,

199
00:14:37,520 --> 00:14:40,440
Speaker 2: anyone can win if you get into a race. You

200
00:14:40,480 --> 00:14:46,000
Speaker 2: can't win if you don't run. I would. At this point,

201
00:14:46,480 --> 00:14:49,360
Speaker 2: it's early. There are a number of things to consider.

202
00:14:50,400 --> 00:14:53,240
Speaker 2: So he'll have to give up his congressional seat because

203
00:14:53,240 --> 00:14:56,280
Speaker 2: he won't be able to run for reelection in March

204
00:14:56,920 --> 00:15:00,280
Speaker 2: in the congressional seat he currently holds, which w will

205
00:15:00,280 --> 00:15:03,760
Speaker 2: pop open a congressional wide open congressional seat in a

206
00:15:03,880 --> 00:15:08,280
Speaker 2: solidly Republican district. I would argue that district was created

207
00:15:08,360 --> 00:15:14,720
Speaker 2: for him. So it is. It's the kind of district

208
00:15:15,120 --> 00:15:18,440
Speaker 2: it's hard to win in a primary, but once you

209
00:15:18,560 --> 00:15:23,200
Speaker 2: win in the primary, you're secure in a general and

210
00:15:23,240 --> 00:15:25,040
Speaker 2: that means that you can go to Washington, d C.

211
00:15:25,800 --> 00:15:29,280
Speaker 2: Without having a challenge every November. You just take care

212
00:15:29,320 --> 00:15:31,640
Speaker 2: of your base and you can hold a seat like

213
00:15:31,720 --> 00:15:35,280
Speaker 2: that for a very long time, which allows you to

214
00:15:35,400 --> 00:15:39,400
Speaker 2: do things on the national scale, to take on very

215
00:15:39,440 --> 00:15:42,200
Speaker 2: controversial issues as long as you are right with the base,

216
00:15:42,800 --> 00:15:46,640
Speaker 2: because the Democrats can't nab you and nip at you

217
00:15:47,680 --> 00:15:52,160
Speaker 2: come November. Running statewide in the state of Texas is

218
00:15:52,200 --> 00:15:55,040
Speaker 2: extremely difficult. Six and a half million dollars sounds like

219
00:15:55,120 --> 00:15:57,240
Speaker 2: a lot of money to build your name idea, and

220
00:15:57,280 --> 00:16:00,000
Speaker 2: that's what they've been trying to do. But we're still

221
00:16:00,160 --> 00:16:06,080
Speaker 2: talking about a major a large city with several major

222
00:16:06,360 --> 00:16:09,440
Speaker 2: media markets. You've got to buy media in the Dallas

223
00:16:09,440 --> 00:16:12,600
Speaker 2: for work area, You've got to buy media in the

224
00:16:13,200 --> 00:16:16,760
Speaker 2: San Anton Austin area. You've got to buy Houston media,

225
00:16:17,080 --> 00:16:19,720
Speaker 2: which that's going to be his strongest suit. That's where

226
00:16:19,720 --> 00:16:24,040
Speaker 2: he is. West Texas, South Texas. They're thirty eight congressional districts,

227
00:16:24,360 --> 00:16:27,400
Speaker 2: so less than three percent of Texans have ever voted

228
00:16:27,440 --> 00:16:29,400
Speaker 2: for you. Not to say it can't be done, but

229
00:16:29,440 --> 00:16:32,400
Speaker 2: it's it's a tough thing to do. It's been done before,

230
00:16:32,440 --> 00:16:41,600
Speaker 2: but it's it's going to be a tough race. Classic

231
00:16:41,680 --> 00:16:49,640
Speaker 2: case of FAFO. Caul comes in yesterday to HPD. There

232
00:16:49,720 --> 00:16:52,520
Speaker 2: is a Hispanic man. We don't know if he's illegal yet.

233
00:16:53,080 --> 00:16:56,400
Speaker 2: Hopefully we'll get that information today. I expect that he

234
00:16:56,480 --> 00:17:02,120
Speaker 2: will be, but we'll see. With an AR fifteen firing

235
00:17:02,160 --> 00:17:07,119
Speaker 2: off rounds yesterday in the northeastern part of the city,

236
00:17:08,840 --> 00:17:16,280
Speaker 2: officers arrived approach cautiously. He's firing at various people and indiscriminately.

237
00:17:17,080 --> 00:17:20,440
Speaker 2: He hops up on a vehicle to get a better

238
00:17:20,560 --> 00:17:26,920
Speaker 2: vantage point from which to shoot. The officers. They emerge

239
00:17:26,960 --> 00:17:29,520
Speaker 2: with their long guns and put him down like the

240
00:17:29,640 --> 00:17:34,040
Speaker 2: rabid dog he is. So that's one less person terrorizing

241
00:17:34,040 --> 00:17:38,240
Speaker 2: our community, and that is a good thing. A Union

242
00:17:38,320 --> 00:17:43,919
Speaker 2: Pacific train stuck on the tracks in the Galleria area,

243
00:17:44,080 --> 00:17:50,840
Speaker 2: blocking San Philippi, West, Timer and Richmond from ten o'clock

244
00:17:50,880 --> 00:17:57,520
Speaker 2: on Friday until three point fifteen in the afternoon. A

245
00:17:57,640 --> 00:18:01,560
Speaker 2: Union Pacific spokesman confirmed that the train was experiencing a

246
00:18:01,600 --> 00:18:06,439
Speaker 2: mechanical issue and was blocking those streets. Just east of

247
00:18:06,560 --> 00:18:12,359
Speaker 2: the West Loop. All three crossings are heavily trafficked, and

248
00:18:12,480 --> 00:18:15,000
Speaker 2: traffic was backed up about a mile for much of

249
00:18:15,040 --> 00:18:19,080
Speaker 2: the day. Officials did not give details on what the

250
00:18:19,160 --> 00:18:28,040
Speaker 2: mechanical issue was. When I was mayor pro ten I

251
00:18:28,160 --> 00:18:30,200
Speaker 2: was able to work with Bill White on a couple

252
00:18:30,200 --> 00:18:33,399
Speaker 2: of things, several things actually, that we both agreed on

253
00:18:33,800 --> 00:18:38,240
Speaker 2: and were passionate about, and one of them was Union

254
00:18:38,280 --> 00:18:41,680
Speaker 2: Pacific is damn well going to stop blocking our streets.

255
00:18:42,480 --> 00:18:45,359
Speaker 2: You have to start with. This is not a uniquely

256
00:18:45,680 --> 00:18:49,560
Speaker 2: Houston problem, but it is a Houston problem more so

257
00:18:50,119 --> 00:18:53,119
Speaker 2: than most big cities. And the reason is we have

258
00:18:53,240 --> 00:18:58,880
Speaker 2: the most what are called at grade crossings. In many

259
00:18:58,920 --> 00:19:03,320
Speaker 2: parts of the country, the road is sunken to go

260
00:19:03,480 --> 00:19:06,879
Speaker 2: under a train track, or it's elevated to go over

261
00:19:07,040 --> 00:19:10,600
Speaker 2: a train track like an overpass, or the train track

262
00:19:11,040 --> 00:19:16,920
Speaker 2: is sunken or elevated. What you don't want is cars

263
00:19:17,240 --> 00:19:24,359
Speaker 2: and trains crossing perpendicularly at grade at the same level,

264
00:19:24,960 --> 00:19:28,040
Speaker 2: because now when the train is coming through, you're going

265
00:19:28,119 --> 00:19:33,480
Speaker 2: to stop traffic, and a lot of products are still

266
00:19:33,480 --> 00:19:37,119
Speaker 2: moved by train way more than you would imagine. In fact,

267
00:19:37,800 --> 00:19:40,160
Speaker 2: most of the time when you see an eighteen wheeler,

268
00:19:40,160 --> 00:19:45,200
Speaker 2: and you think, well, that's how goods are moved. That's

269
00:19:45,240 --> 00:19:49,360
Speaker 2: actually how goods are finished. They're brought to the country

270
00:19:49,480 --> 00:19:55,119
Speaker 2: in shipping containers and then they're traffic to the major

271
00:19:55,240 --> 00:19:59,399
Speaker 2: hubs of the country in railroad cars, and from there

272
00:19:59,520 --> 00:20:02,119
Speaker 2: they're take to their final destination, which is in the

273
00:20:02,119 --> 00:20:06,480
Speaker 2: middle of a block by an eighteen wheeler. So all

274
00:20:06,560 --> 00:20:12,680
Speaker 2: three of those touched most products. Well, for a very

275
00:20:12,720 --> 00:20:17,280
Speaker 2: long time, Union Pacific had done whatever they wanted, whenever

276
00:20:17,359 --> 00:20:21,280
Speaker 2: they wanted, however they wanted, or as long as they wanted,

277
00:20:22,080 --> 00:20:27,760
Speaker 2: without ever being questioned. And the belief was, well, they're

278
00:20:27,800 --> 00:20:31,440
Speaker 2: the federal railroad. You can't do anything to stop them.

279
00:20:31,640 --> 00:20:34,920
Speaker 2: Nobody has the power to stop them. And that goes

280
00:20:35,000 --> 00:20:41,040
Speaker 2: back to almost two hundred years ago when the railroads

281
00:20:41,720 --> 00:20:46,440
Speaker 2: were expanding across the country. Railroad expansion meant the expansion

282
00:20:46,480 --> 00:20:50,320
Speaker 2: of the country before we occupied the entirety of the

283
00:20:50,960 --> 00:20:55,960
Speaker 2: what are now the forty eight states on this continent,

284
00:20:57,359 --> 00:21:00,359
Speaker 2: and nobody was able to stop them. They were able

285
00:21:00,400 --> 00:21:03,760
Speaker 2: to accumulate whatever land they wanted, and they were able

286
00:21:03,840 --> 00:21:07,680
Speaker 2: to operate with impunity. And the theory went, you didn't

287
00:21:07,720 --> 00:21:09,720
Speaker 2: want the locals to be able to stop this great

288
00:21:09,760 --> 00:21:13,119
Speaker 2: westward expansion in this country, and that's how we were

289
00:21:13,160 --> 00:21:16,440
Speaker 2: going to grow and develop and did. But over that

290
00:21:16,520 --> 00:21:20,480
Speaker 2: period of time, they grew very arrogant because they could

291
00:21:20,560 --> 00:21:24,960
Speaker 2: not be questioned, and so without anyone to ever actually

292
00:21:25,240 --> 00:21:28,880
Speaker 2: hold them accountable, they simply began running their businesses if

293
00:21:28,920 --> 00:21:33,760
Speaker 2: no one else mattered. And so Bill White and I

294
00:21:33,840 --> 00:21:38,000
Speaker 2: start working together, and Union Pacific wouldn't even meet with us,

295
00:21:38,680 --> 00:21:41,600
Speaker 2: the mayor and the mayor pro tem of the fourth

296
00:21:41,640 --> 00:21:44,679
Speaker 2: largest city or asking you for a meeting, and you

297
00:21:44,720 --> 00:21:47,800
Speaker 2: won't even come meet with us. That felt weird. You

298
00:21:47,920 --> 00:21:51,040
Speaker 2: got a lot of crossings through this city. So we

299
00:21:51,200 --> 00:21:54,520
Speaker 2: decided that we were going to go Tony Busby on him,

300
00:21:54,920 --> 00:22:00,320
Speaker 2: and we began hurling mud at them. We began getting

301
00:22:00,440 --> 00:22:05,240
Speaker 2: very nasty with them in every way possible, using every

302
00:22:05,320 --> 00:22:07,560
Speaker 2: resource at our disposal. It's what Trump would have done.

303
00:22:08,560 --> 00:22:13,280
Speaker 2: And so eventually six months into this, they realized, oh,

304
00:22:13,359 --> 00:22:16,439
Speaker 2: we better have a meeting. So they finally show up

305
00:22:16,440 --> 00:22:19,280
Speaker 2: to the meeting, whereupon they tell us, you have no

306
00:22:19,359 --> 00:22:22,720
Speaker 2: authority to regulate us. You have no authority to tell

307
00:22:22,800 --> 00:22:24,840
Speaker 2: us when we can stop our trains and when we can't.

308
00:22:26,320 --> 00:22:30,200
Speaker 2: So we said look one way or another, you're going

309
00:22:30,240 --> 00:22:33,760
Speaker 2: to stop. You're going to end the process of stopping

310
00:22:33,800 --> 00:22:39,719
Speaker 2: your trains blocking our major thoroughfares. And so what we

311
00:22:39,760 --> 00:22:44,359
Speaker 2: did we had HPD pulled all this data, but the

312
00:22:44,440 --> 00:22:47,960
Speaker 2: better story was the anecdotes. I used to tell this

313
00:22:48,040 --> 00:22:54,840
Speaker 2: story publicly a lot. If you drive down Memorial westbound

314
00:22:55,040 --> 00:22:59,400
Speaker 2: out of downtown, you will come through Memorial Park. Some

315
00:22:59,480 --> 00:23:03,600
Speaker 2: of you made that drive. That is the parkway model,

316
00:23:03,920 --> 00:23:07,000
Speaker 2: based on a fellow named Moses, Robert Moses, out of

317
00:23:07,240 --> 00:23:10,560
Speaker 2: New York. The parkway model of people being able to

318
00:23:10,600 --> 00:23:12,800
Speaker 2: move from the downtown, which is what used to be

319
00:23:12,800 --> 00:23:16,880
Speaker 2: the big commercial hubs, it's much less so now into

320
00:23:17,680 --> 00:23:24,560
Speaker 2: an interior suburb or the perimeter of your city. And

321
00:23:24,600 --> 00:23:28,680
Speaker 2: these broad parkways. It was meant as a more beautiful

322
00:23:28,720 --> 00:23:31,160
Speaker 2: way to get home without getting stuck on the freeway.

323
00:23:31,400 --> 00:23:34,880
Speaker 2: So instead of taking Ien, you would take this parkway.

324
00:23:35,119 --> 00:23:37,760
Speaker 2: This parkway brings a lot of people in in the

325
00:23:37,800 --> 00:23:41,520
Speaker 2: morning and unloads a lot of people in the evening.

326
00:23:43,000 --> 00:23:45,400
Speaker 2: When Union Pacific had gotten worse and worse and worse

327
00:23:45,440 --> 00:23:53,600
Speaker 2: about blocking that particular crossing, one day call comes in

328
00:23:54,680 --> 00:23:59,280
Speaker 2: that the train has been out, has been out of commission,

329
00:24:00,040 --> 00:24:01,800
Speaker 2: were told because that's what they just claimed out train

330
00:24:01,840 --> 00:24:03,960
Speaker 2: broke down. It's not true. The train didn't break down

331
00:24:05,680 --> 00:24:09,000
Speaker 2: on that day for almost two and a half hours.

332
00:24:10,080 --> 00:24:12,520
Speaker 2: The train conductor who came through, they got women in

333
00:24:12,520 --> 00:24:17,440
Speaker 2: every city. He stops his train, gets out of his train,

334
00:24:18,840 --> 00:24:23,040
Speaker 2: goes and gets in a woman's car. They drive to

335
00:24:23,080 --> 00:24:28,800
Speaker 2: a hot sheet motel and have a conjugal visit. All

336
00:24:28,840 --> 00:24:32,600
Speaker 2: in all, that train blocked the road for about two

337
00:24:32,640 --> 00:24:37,520
Speaker 2: and a half hours. So this was the story we

338
00:24:37,560 --> 00:24:41,520
Speaker 2: went public with. And of course we're calling congressmen on

339
00:24:41,560 --> 00:24:44,919
Speaker 2: both sides of the aisle. Turns out Republicans and Democrats

340
00:24:44,920 --> 00:24:47,320
Speaker 2: have constituents who don't want to be stuck in traffic

341
00:24:47,960 --> 00:24:52,760
Speaker 2: because of the arrogance of Union Pacific. And I will

342
00:24:52,760 --> 00:24:55,840
Speaker 2: say that during our time there they knocked that nonsense off,

343
00:24:56,320 --> 00:25:00,560
Speaker 2: but clearly they haven't again. So Whipmeyer needs to let

344
00:25:00,600 --> 00:25:02,760
Speaker 2: them know how the caw ate the cabbage because you

345
00:25:02,800 --> 00:25:05,360
Speaker 2: deserve better. You shouldn't be stuck in traffic because Union

346
00:25:05,400 --> 00:25:07,480
Speaker 2: Pacific or a bunch of arrogant asses.

347
00:25:07,320 --> 00:25:09,840
Speaker 5: Morning suits to coordinating accessories.

348
00:25:13,280 --> 00:25:16,560
Speaker 2: Joe Roberts writes, pot call Kettle, you're one of the

349
00:25:16,920 --> 00:25:22,680
Speaker 2: most arrogant asses there is. I always enjoy when someone

350
00:25:23,359 --> 00:25:26,080
Speaker 2: who I already can tell I don't like does not

351
00:25:26,160 --> 00:25:29,399
Speaker 2: have good command of the English language, because it just

352
00:25:29,720 --> 00:25:34,560
Speaker 2: further demonstrates their stupid you not mark you not. Don't

353
00:25:34,680 --> 00:25:39,200
Speaker 2: they think good? Arrogant? I am one of the most

354
00:25:39,320 --> 00:25:45,560
Speaker 2: arrogant asses there is, and that is absolutely true. However

355
00:25:45,640 --> 00:25:50,480
Speaker 2: you define arrogant, I am arrogant. Here is the difference

356
00:25:51,600 --> 00:25:57,000
Speaker 2: when I criticize Union Pacific for being arrogant. The important

357
00:25:57,000 --> 00:25:59,840
Speaker 2: thing to remember there is if a guy lives up

358
00:25:59,840 --> 00:26:04,720
Speaker 2: in the woods and in his cabin up in the

359
00:26:04,720 --> 00:26:09,080
Speaker 2: woods where he never interacts with anyone, he is extraordinarily arrogant.

360
00:26:09,960 --> 00:26:14,800
Speaker 2: It doesn't matter to me or anyone else. Arrogance in

361
00:26:14,840 --> 00:26:18,240
Speaker 2: and of itself is not a problem. The arrogance of

362
00:26:18,359 --> 00:26:23,440
Speaker 2: Union Pacific is not offensive because they are arrogant. It

363
00:26:23,560 --> 00:26:26,879
Speaker 2: is because that is the best word to use for

364
00:26:26,960 --> 00:26:31,440
Speaker 2: the fact that, when asked to be good corporate neighbors

365
00:26:32,080 --> 00:26:36,159
Speaker 2: and share the public space, you know, not leave people

366
00:26:36,240 --> 00:26:39,840
Speaker 2: waiting for five hours on a road because you leave

367
00:26:39,880 --> 00:26:44,439
Speaker 2: your train abandoned or your driver takes a nap or

368
00:26:44,440 --> 00:26:50,719
Speaker 2: has a conjugal visit. That let the reaction that says

369
00:26:51,160 --> 00:26:55,080
Speaker 2: I don't care about the people. People can be stuck

370
00:26:55,080 --> 00:26:57,439
Speaker 2: in the road. I don't care if they were rushing

371
00:26:57,480 --> 00:27:00,000
Speaker 2: to the hospital, if they're trying to pick up their kus,

372
00:27:00,480 --> 00:27:03,080
Speaker 2: if they're rushing to a job interview, if they have

373
00:27:03,760 --> 00:27:06,240
Speaker 2: groceries they're trying to get home with. I do not

374
00:27:06,560 --> 00:27:13,639
Speaker 2: care when someone does that. Arrogant is, in fact the

375
00:27:13,720 --> 00:27:16,240
Speaker 2: word that is used. It's not arrogance in and of

376
00:27:16,280 --> 00:27:19,919
Speaker 2: itself that is problematic. It is the fact that they

377
00:27:19,960 --> 00:27:23,919
Speaker 2: are arrogant in the face of a criticism. But I

378
00:27:23,920 --> 00:27:27,320
Speaker 2: think Joe is probably one of those people that's sitting

379
00:27:27,400 --> 00:27:31,520
Speaker 2: at home choking on his boogers, who already doesn't like

380
00:27:31,680 --> 00:27:37,680
Speaker 2: us anyway. And so you you're arrogant. You got arrogant too.

381
00:27:38,560 --> 00:27:42,840
Speaker 2: You you are arrogant, Yes, yes I am. But in

382
00:27:42,880 --> 00:27:45,960
Speaker 2: this case it's not bothering you because you can turn

383
00:27:46,000 --> 00:27:50,879
Speaker 2: the dial, you jackass. Houston Chronicle has filed a Freedom

384
00:27:50,920 --> 00:27:54,800
Speaker 2: of Information Act request to get Lena Hidalgo's text messages,

385
00:27:55,960 --> 00:28:00,280
Speaker 2: and they did because old Lena. Now she's going to

386
00:28:00,680 --> 00:28:03,560
Speaker 2: rape the taxpayers for every possible penny. She uses a

387
00:28:03,560 --> 00:28:06,720
Speaker 2: government phone, she's not paying for her own. She's the

388
00:28:06,800 --> 00:28:12,440
Speaker 2: queen which means her phone and her text messages are discoverable,

389
00:28:13,520 --> 00:28:17,480
Speaker 2: and the fred of Information Act request shows that she

390
00:28:17,600 --> 00:28:21,520
Speaker 2: had planned to leave the September ninth budget meeting early, which,

391
00:28:21,520 --> 00:28:25,080
Speaker 2: of course we know she stormed out to attend a

392
00:28:25,280 --> 00:28:28,280
Speaker 2: Hans Zimmer concert. Do you know who Hans Zimmer is?

393
00:28:28,320 --> 00:28:29,280
Speaker 2: Who is Hans Zimmer?

394
00:28:30,640 --> 00:28:31,600
Speaker 5: Oh? Oh?

395
00:28:31,640 --> 00:28:33,480
Speaker 2: The conductor? Okay?

396
00:28:34,240 --> 00:28:34,320
Speaker 5: No?

397
00:28:34,440 --> 00:28:34,960
Speaker 2: Who is it?

398
00:28:35,320 --> 00:28:35,399
Speaker 5: Is?

399
00:28:35,400 --> 00:28:35,480
Speaker 4: That?

400
00:28:35,520 --> 00:28:35,760
Speaker 2: Really?

401
00:28:35,800 --> 00:28:35,960
Speaker 5: It?

402
00:28:37,560 --> 00:28:41,560
Speaker 2: He writes music for movies like what like at John

403
00:28:41,560 --> 00:28:50,280
Speaker 2: Williams type gun? Uh? John Claude vun dem huh? Christopher Nolan?

404
00:28:50,640 --> 00:28:54,920
Speaker 2: And who is Christopher Nolan? Uh?

405
00:28:56,000 --> 00:28:56,200
Speaker 5: Oh?

406
00:28:56,200 --> 00:29:02,320
Speaker 2: Oppenheimer? Okay, okay uh. So she wanted to go to

407
00:29:02,360 --> 00:29:04,760
Speaker 2: that concert, and she was going to go to that concert.

408
00:29:05,280 --> 00:29:09,560
Speaker 2: So when she says to everyone, I can't stand this anymore, y'all,

409
00:29:09,600 --> 00:29:13,880
Speaker 2: you don't care about the children, and gets up and

410
00:29:13,920 --> 00:29:17,959
Speaker 2: storms out, supposedly because she was upset they didn't care

411
00:29:17,960 --> 00:29:20,320
Speaker 2: about the children. She was already going to leave. It

412
00:29:20,400 --> 00:29:25,200
Speaker 2: was all a ruse, and text between her and her

413
00:29:25,280 --> 00:29:29,920
Speaker 2: chief of staff indicated that the judge had planned to

414
00:29:30,000 --> 00:29:31,760
Speaker 2: leave the meeting at five point forty five so she

415
00:29:31,760 --> 00:29:36,840
Speaker 2: could buy merchandise, which she did. Adrian Garcia and the

416
00:29:36,880 --> 00:29:40,320
Speaker 2: other commissioners said, Garcia said, none of us chose a

417
00:29:40,320 --> 00:29:45,160
Speaker 2: concert over our constituents. This behavior is disappointing, to say

418
00:29:45,200 --> 00:29:48,800
Speaker 2: the least. I couldn't help it. I read the text

419
00:29:48,840 --> 00:29:54,520
Speaker 2: message exchange with her chief of staff yesterday and she

420
00:29:54,720 --> 00:29:57,440
Speaker 2: says in one of her text messages to her chief

421
00:29:57,440 --> 00:29:59,920
Speaker 2: of staff, I can't remember the name of her dog

422
00:30:00,280 --> 00:30:03,800
Speaker 2: feefee or I mean her cat. But not surprising, because

423
00:30:03,840 --> 00:30:07,440
Speaker 2: she's crazy. She says that she's bringing her cat to

424
00:30:07,480 --> 00:30:13,520
Speaker 2: the concert. Uh. Yes, here she was storming out. Now

425
00:30:13,680 --> 00:30:17,120
Speaker 2: remember now you know she was going to leave at

426
00:30:17,120 --> 00:30:20,000
Speaker 2: that time. Anyway, the storming out, she had to have

427
00:30:20,040 --> 00:30:22,680
Speaker 2: an excuse because she couldn't just say, hey, guys, I'm

428
00:30:22,680 --> 00:30:25,320
Speaker 2: supposed to be chairing this meeting. This is the people's business.

429
00:30:25,360 --> 00:30:28,600
Speaker 2: It's a regular scheduled meeting. I'm going to a concert.

430
00:30:28,840 --> 00:30:34,200
Speaker 2: So instead she creates this whole smoke screen and stands

431
00:30:34,280 --> 00:30:37,360
Speaker 2: up and marches out on her way to the concert.

432
00:30:38,720 --> 00:30:41,840
Speaker 5: I would like to move to restore. Since we're not

433
00:30:41,920 --> 00:30:45,760
Speaker 5: cutting anything, I would like to restore all departments to

434
00:30:45,880 --> 00:30:49,760
Speaker 5: their full fiscal year current level of service budgets. Since

435
00:30:49,840 --> 00:30:52,480
Speaker 5: everybody says we're not cutting any services, then we should

436
00:30:52,520 --> 00:30:55,920
Speaker 5: just have the current level of service repeated for next year.

437
00:30:56,000 --> 00:30:57,640
Speaker 5: So I would like to see if my colleagues are

438
00:30:57,680 --> 00:31:01,400
Speaker 5: willing to have the same level of services next year

439
00:31:01,440 --> 00:31:04,040
Speaker 5: as we've had this year. I would like to vote

440
00:31:04,080 --> 00:31:07,280
Speaker 5: that all departments keep the same level of service. Do

441
00:31:07,360 --> 00:31:09,920
Speaker 5: I have a second for all departments to keep the

442
00:31:09,960 --> 00:31:11,280
Speaker 5: same level of services?

443
00:31:13,120 --> 00:31:17,240
Speaker 2: I think, well, we can't do that because the money

444
00:31:17,240 --> 00:31:20,040
Speaker 2: has to come from somewhere. Right this process we've set up,

445
00:31:20,880 --> 00:31:22,280
Speaker 2: I'm for it, but we can't do it.

446
00:31:22,360 --> 00:31:24,719
Speaker 5: So when the decision, well, I just want to make

447
00:31:24,720 --> 00:31:27,320
Speaker 5: it clear that three colleagues here they say there are

448
00:31:27,360 --> 00:31:30,280
Speaker 5: no cuts, but they're they're not willing to second emotion

449
00:31:30,760 --> 00:31:33,600
Speaker 5: to keep the current level of service. So that means

450
00:31:34,240 --> 00:31:36,800
Speaker 5: so that means there are cuts. It's for colleagues that

451
00:31:36,880 --> 00:31:43,560
Speaker 5: don't want to okay, and so Judge, yeah.

452
00:31:43,240 --> 00:31:46,760
Speaker 2: We bought it at that time. Now when you say anyone.

453
00:31:46,640 --> 00:31:49,280
Speaker 5: You can, well, I'm just not gonna vote for these

454
00:31:49,400 --> 00:31:53,960
Speaker 5: additional I'm not gonna vote for this whole and im

455
00:31:54,080 --> 00:31:57,160
Speaker 5: and I'm not gonna vote against my constituents interests. You

456
00:31:57,240 --> 00:32:01,920
Speaker 5: represent a certain part Commission Raim's gonna respect that, but

457
00:32:02,080 --> 00:32:06,880
Speaker 5: the rest of us ran on something else, the whole county.

458
00:32:07,200 --> 00:32:08,920
Speaker 2: We got about five more items, right.

459
00:32:09,240 --> 00:32:16,960
Speaker 5: Yeah, all right, I'm gonna I'm gonna let you continue

460
00:32:16,960 --> 00:32:18,320
Speaker 5: with the court. I don't want to be a part

461
00:32:18,360 --> 00:32:20,000
Speaker 5: of this nonsense. All right, thank you.

462
00:32:22,520 --> 00:32:24,800
Speaker 2: So she tried to act like she was leaving on

463
00:32:24,840 --> 00:32:31,360
Speaker 2: a principal basis, but she was leaving anyway. And what's

464
00:32:31,400 --> 00:32:35,680
Speaker 2: interesting about all of this is it's Joe Biden all

465
00:32:35,720 --> 00:32:40,640
Speaker 2: over again. Because Lena Hidalgo will not be the Democrat

466
00:32:40,680 --> 00:32:44,040
Speaker 2: nominee to be the county judge next year. It'll be

467
00:32:44,080 --> 00:32:49,840
Speaker 2: an East porker. And the moment she's gone, and maybe

468
00:32:49,840 --> 00:32:55,680
Speaker 2: before she's gone, but certainly when she's gone, the people

469
00:32:55,680 --> 00:32:59,920
Speaker 2: who put her in there will come out and admit

470
00:33:00,760 --> 00:33:06,400
Speaker 2: she was crazy, like boil your rabbit crazy. She's psychotic,

471
00:33:07,120 --> 00:33:09,959
Speaker 2: she's not very smart. She never learned the job. She

472
00:33:10,000 --> 00:33:16,280
Speaker 2: doesn't understand the job. She was petty, unqualified and never

473
00:33:16,840 --> 00:33:20,600
Speaker 2: grew into the job that was handed to her. But

474
00:33:21,520 --> 00:33:28,120
Speaker 2: you supported her and you defended her. You know, you've

475
00:33:28,160 --> 00:33:30,960
Speaker 2: got these Democrats now who are saying, you know, Joe

476
00:33:30,960 --> 00:33:33,760
Speaker 2: Biden was basically brain dead. But I didn't want to

477
00:33:33,800 --> 00:33:36,600
Speaker 2: say anything because I didn't want to help Trump. I

478
00:33:36,600 --> 00:33:38,600
Speaker 2: didn't want to say anything because I didn't want Democrats

479
00:33:38,640 --> 00:33:43,360
Speaker 2: to be mad at me, So they are all responsible

480
00:33:44,600 --> 00:33:47,080
Speaker 2: for having put her into This is Joe Biden all

481
00:33:47,080 --> 00:33:49,560
Speaker 2: over again again. We've got people who don't need to

482
00:33:49,560 --> 00:33:51,000
Speaker 2: be in these positions who were there
