LEAKED AUDIO: Ken Paxton Says D.C. Is Running His Campaign | MAGA Mondays

Look at him smiling, folks. Look at that. That's Will Summer. Big smile. I'm sensitive. It's bag of Mondays. I guess we're smiling because love is in the air. It's beautiful. The leaves are changing, foliage is everywhere. You get that little chill of fall. I don't know about you. I get into my little fall guy attire. Got the vests, cup of coffee. It's just great. And for Cash Patel, it's love. Cash Patel's married or he's engaged, I should say. Engaged. So I guess we should start there. I want to send my whole heart of congratulations to our FBI director. He announced his engagement to country music sensation Lexus Watkins over the weekend. Do we have the post, the shot of them? There it is. I love that they use the black and white filter. It's very good. It's nice. She's got that ring on. She looks happy and he looks happy too. So I have nothing snarky to say. He says, went and got the law involved. Engaged. I can't imagine he snarky. A lot of heart emoji. Yeah, look, I mean, we've obviously had a lot to say about this couple. And then one thing that's interesting here is that, Cash's conservative critics have sometimes said, like people like Kyle Serafen have said, okay, you're going through all this trouble. She's riding on the jet, all this stuff. And they're not even married, you know? And so, you know, I obviously he's taken care of that. Congrats to all involved here. I'm excited for them. You know, obviously some have said she's a Masad Honeypot. People have been sued for saying she's a Masad Honeypot. But you know, it looks like it's real. Well, let's not, we can't still, we can't rule that out yet. I mean, there's, you know, Masad's pretty, you know, they're pretty devious. They can, they can play the long game. So it's possible that this is just part of it. But I'm going to choose to sit on the side of love. Yes. And I think this is genuine. I'm excited to see the wedding where it's going to be. Will they get the ballroom done in time for this? I'm curious. I have questions like what took so long? What, why now? Was there something that happened? Is he worried about the midterms? And you want to get this out of the way? Probably not. That has nothing to do here. But yeah, that was weighing on voters minds. Yeah, this is cash going to settle down. This could change. This could flip Texas. We don't know. What do you think Trump's going to get them? Which Russian oligarch do you think is going to pay for the wedding? Well, I will say, you know, fuel up the jet folks. Because, you know, if cash has a honeymoon, he's required to travel by private jet. I mean, let's go to the Maldives. Let's go to the Seychelles. You know, we could take the jet anywhere. I mean, they've already snorkeled at the remains of Pearl Harbor. So we can't do that one. Got other spots he got to do. All the domestic honeymoon destinations got to cross that one out. Can't go to Milan and party with the US hockey team because they're not there anymore. So there's a few, there's a few spots that they can't honeymoon in. But the wedding's going to be interesting. I'm very curious to see who attends. Well, you know, you know, famously, right? He was just at, um, which, what, you know, Alita Habba's wedding, partying with that guy who was a suspected Russian asset or a foreign intelligence asset. So, um, you know, you can imagine who might be on this guest list. It would be interesting. You mentioned that people have been sued for alleging that she's a Mossad agent. The person who most notably was sued was Elijah Schaeffer. Yes. He had to apologize. But didn't he have to like make some sort of disclaimer in his apology too? He had to make a very long disclaimer as part of his settlement of the lawsuit. And among other things, he said it was sort of along the lines of like, any FBI investigations of me that may or may not exist, would be totally like, you know, based on legitimate law enforcement interest. It would not be, you know, punishing me for saying the FBI director's girlfriend is Mossad Assa. Okay. Well, well, I don't want to be sued. I don't think she, I was just joking about the Mossad thing. This seems genuine. I'm happy for them. I wonder how the rest is going to go. And we're going to easily be following this. This is one of our favorite topics. But to cash, who I'm pretty sure watches the show, right? Congrats. Anything else, Todd? No, I don't think so. I mean, when you say pretty sure he watches the show, it reminds me of those text messages that came out where he was texting his spokesman. Where he's like, you need to blast this account called, I find retards. And the spokesman was like, sir, we can't do it. You know, this will identify ourselves. Oh, man, well, look, as an invitation, as an invitation, as a, as a gift to the, to the engaged couple, we offer a chance to come on the show. Oh, I can't put a present at it. You can't put a present at it. I go Monday. I agree. Yeah, exactly. Okay. Let's get to the good stuff. There's so much to get to folks. We want to get the cash thing out of the way because we believe in love here. I mean, I go Monday's. Benny Johnson had a weekend like on multiple fronts. Our guy, Benny, he was sued. Yeah, this is interesting. I believe this is the first Benny lawsuit that exists. Now, look, we expected a defamation. We were hoping for a Benny defamation lawsuit, but one where he would be the plaintiff. He has long threatened to sue Milo Ewanopolis for saying he's gay. Obviously, after Milo got deported, Benny said, unfortunately, you can't sue a deported man, which is not true, by the way. But so instead, what we get is, are two protesters who are suing Benny, I believe, anti-ice protesters, for basically alleging he was sort of portrayed them as violent antifa. And they have understandably taken exception to that, and now they're suing him. Yeah, so basically, what happened was Benny was in a ride along during the Chicago area, immigration detention enforcement days. He did fall see portray two violent, what he called violent extremists as assaulting federal officers. Those Illinois residents, one was Kyle Frank Kovic, a gay to scientist at Harvard University and Marine Foodie, a contract court reporter, not unusual backgrounds for violent extremists. They filed a lawsuit. They said they were detained while protesting peacefully outside the broad detention center, that Johnson knowingly framed them as criminals and left-wing terrorists in videos he posted to his millions of viewers. This was back in October 2025 during the Christie Noem days. Not happening in Christie Noem too, by the way. Has he addressed this at all, or is he just playing low? No, he hasn't addressed this as far as I know. This is an interesting one. I think we're seeing, number one, it's a clever idea. It's kind of obvious, but I don't think anyone's done it, because you see these people, they'll post everyone who got arrested or they'll show crowd shots of protesters and they'll say, these are bloodthirsty antifa, murderers, whatever. And we know from general libel law that if I show a video of someone where they're recognizable and I say, this guy wants to murder people, they could potentially sue. And so it's interesting that as far as I know, this is sort of the first time someone had this idea, it's a pretty good one. Yeah, I mean, that's intriguing. The other thing I wanted to add is, this is actually not the first lawsuit in the past week that has kind of noted this nexus between DHS and the influencers. Renee Good's family is suing DHS over that shooting. And interestingly, they actually make a lot in the lawsuit. They're suing, they're not suing the influencers yet, but they make a lot of talk. I think they mentioned Benny. They mentioned Nick Sorteur. They mentioned this guy named Ben Berquam, who's like a banan crony. So there's kind of this developing legal discussion about the role these influencers play. Yeah, well, it was always grotesque at the real in the moment watching it, where they would just kind of hang out and it was like treating it like, you know, ice porn basically and they're so excited to be with like detaining people and they thought it was very cool. And then obviously it backfired, spectacularly. It's been a year since the recordings happening. And I have to wonder if there's some sort of statute of limitations issue here. But I'd be curious to see what Benny says about this because, you know, I mean, even if you just get to discovery, it would be lovely to see the sort of text messages that he was exchanging with the DHS officials at the real time. This was not the only Benny news as we alluded to. Benny was on the hill. What was he, I don't even know what he was covering on the hill, do you? No, this was a yeah, I'm not sure. Yeah, I believe his wife was there to speak to the maha hearing. His wife is Nurse Kate. And she is we obligated to call her just Nurse Kate. Is that like the thing? Yeah, that's that's under a legal agreement we have with Benny. Yeah, Nurse Kate. I'm Jill Biden, Dr. Jill Biden. And so she's kind of like a maha mom influencer. Obviously, I follow her on Instagram. And so I get a lot of her like, you know, workout stuff and what have you. And so in this case, we got this character named Patrick Howley. Okay. Patrick Howley is one of the, this is where we got to, you know, unscrew my head and get like the deep lower here. This guy I believe used to be at the daily caller. He kind of went, went nuts. I think it's fair to say and has been more or less banished from the conservative movement. He played a role in a false flag operation. I believe there were some there were some protests at a Smithsonian. This was in the first Trump administration and he was kind of like caught like riling up the crowd or like something like that. But basically, he confronts Benny over, you know, he accuses him of being gay. Do we have that video? Well, hold on. Before we put the video, I just need to make a disclaimer. This tortured me a little bit. I don't want a put any spotlight on Patrick Callie necessarily. Not a good guy. And it's like, you know, you sort of wonder editorially, do we like, can't do we, do we have to play this video like he's not reading? Should we give him any knowledge meant that he did this? Like it's kind of grotesque. Also, frankly, who gives the fucking shit if Benny is gay normally, except for the fact that Benny is wildly influential figure on the right and this has been shadowing him for years. And then on top of that, he is threatened to file suit again against Milo over allegations and hasn't done it. And of course, you know, he postures that he's living this pristine lifestyle that everyone should emulate. And if that lifestyle is in fact a lie, I think it is editorially significant to note that. I don't think there's anything particularly controversial about covering this issue. But I, as I mentioned to Will, this is like the Iran Iraq war kind of of online influencers. I'm not sure, you know, you don't really like either side here. But for the sake of good journalism, let's play the Patrick Howley video of him confronting Benny about whether Benny is gay. Are you a homosexual now? Were you a homosexual? No. Well, then why are there so many allegations against us? People lie. People lie, they're all lies. Said Jones is lying when he said he made out with you and the BuzzFeed dressing room. We'll see what happens. How come you didn't sue Milo? You said you were going to sue him, right? What? I want to sue him. You want to sue Milo? But you don't want discovery, right? No, let me find one with this camera. All right, well, let's see what happens. Okay. Why did nobody ask me, right? Wasn't that Milo's big thing? Go ask her. Okay. Why didn't they ask me? All right, so what was going on? What was going on with the boys? We just answered all your questions. Why did you plagiarize Lindsey Graham's lifestyle? Hold on. You're talking about plagiarism. What year is it? I have to say, Benny handled himself well. I do like the Patrick Colley thing. He was like, you gay? And he's like, no. And he's like, come on, come on. What? This guy says you're being out. And he's like, I don't know, very bad. I will say Benny claims that Patrick cut out several minutes. We're Benny truly engaged in some witty rap part day. Although, you know, we don't have that footage. We can't. We don't have the footage because it wasn't shot by Benny and Patrick hasn't put out whatever else he has. I don't know. I'd seem Benny was trying to be calm, but he seemed a little defeated to me or a little bit worn down. I want to sue Milo. Unfortunately, it is impossible. He's a phantom. We know where Milo's staying in the QAnon castle in the UK. I don't think he's going to get there. It's impossible. You got to. You can't do it. Can't serve him. I'm actually briefly saying that if I could just as we move, but as we're on the topic of like gay allegations, I mean, we talked on the bulwark pod with Tim. We did a trio about the Candace stuff. Obviously, Candace has been facing some lesbian allegations. It's a lot. It's a lot. It's a lot. Now, this was propagated by a guy named Esoteric Shaggy, Shaggy from the Scooby Doo thing. Now, I want to point out, over the weekend, Candace's fans found another gentleman named Mormon Shaggy. And they were going after obviously Mormons are very deep in the Candace mythos related to Charlie Kirk. And they were going after Mormon Shaggy. And Mormon Shaggy had to put out a video saying, I'm innocent. I'm another scuzzy internet character who takes, you know, they confused Mormon Shaggy and Esoteric Shaggy. Yeah. It was a, you know, they went after the wrong Shaggy. Why would they confuse those two wildly different? Yeah. I mean, both scruffy fellows. So the hunt is on. What is going on with all the gay subculture stuff here, surfacing right now? You know, it's a good question. I mean, I think obviously the bending stuff has been around for a while. I mean, it is just the phrasing. Sometimes these accusation videos, just like the phrasing makes me laugh, like where he's just like, what about Saigi Jones? He said, you made out with him at a Buzzfeed party. You know, it's like, okay, you know, the idea of being confronted in the halls of Congress over time. Yeah. What does Patrick think Ben is going to do? You're like, fine. You've got me. Yeah. I want to point out that Patrick Halley is like my age folks. He's really, he's like late 30s, maybe early 40s. And he sounds like he's like 70, where he's like, why did I just, I heard you're gay guy. The other just like brief, you know, I get very few occasions to talk about Patrick Halley. Basically, his, the thing that always strikes me about him is when he worked for the daily caller, he, there was at the time, there was an awful part of the, that operation called Fishbowl DC run by Betsy Rostin or Betsy Rostin had moved over there. And so she wrote a gossip column. And she wrote one of the craziest things I'd ever seen where it was like a gossip column about Patrick or maybe she wasn't working for the daily call, maybe it was just for Fishbowl. But basically it was like about him hooking up with a female conservative reporter. And clearly he had like leaked to her and it was like, it was like, she was spotted leaving his apartment and Patrick was like, it was a little article. It's not even like one paragraph. And it was just like, will they see each other again? And Patrick was sort of like, yeah, we locked lips or something. It was, it was one of the strangest, strangest articles I've ever seen. >> My God, okay, I don't need to spend too much more time on this. Benny had a weekend, Benny will be okay, I'm sure, but it is freaking, I don't know. I did, it's just finding it all weird that this is like constant. The candy stuff, I forgot about the candy stuff and the Benny stuff. >> The next Wednesday stuff, I mean. >> Oh yeah, also, I think Patrick's question, why did you plagiarize Lindsey Graham's lifestyle with double entendre was kind of, it's kind of a funny, it's a pretty funny way to put it. >> Yeah, for folks who don't know, Benny had multiple plagiarism scandals that ended his crib briefly, obviously, because he's now elevated to new heights, but it was like a multiple publications for plagiarizing, and he's like, that's so old, he's like, get over it. >> Get over it, man. >> Focus on the gay stuff, the gay stuff's the new thing. >> That's like 12 years ago, I'm totally reformed. Okay, moving on, let's talk, should we do Paxton and Daily Wire? What do you want to do? >> I kind of want to do Daily Wire, I love Paxton's story too, folks living in Montana, the Sleepyburg of Livingston Montana has been roiled by Ben Shapiro's new movie. Now on Thursday, I wrote about this, this is what we have, a lot of hot new information. So backstory here, Ben Shapiro, we may remember Run, Hide, Fight, Infadels, this movie, anti-Muslim action movie. >> We may remember. It's like three weeks old. >> John, the pages was in it. >> And so now that same crew, the same producer and what have you, they've been filming a pro ice movie that uses as their kickoff of it, essentially, they redo the Renee Good shooting in Minneapolis, but what if that was justified, essentially? And then basically, a bunch, an ice agent and some good guys hide up in a pawn shop and they fight with Antifa and MS-13, this is the plot of the movie. >> And there's a Korean grocer hero who's on the rooftop as like shooting all the brands and Tifa protesters. Every trope you could possibly put together in a movie is in this, yeah. >> So after our article came out, Deadline Hollywood, I believe, got some video from the scene. And let's play, it's sort of a rock is seen, and I want to foreground this. We're going to see the car backing up, this is kind of the Renee Good shooting part of it. You're going to see a lot of protesters in the street. These are actors, these are not people protesting the production, but you can also hear audio of someone saying, I think Ben Shapiro is a cuck, that is a protest, so that's not part of the movie. So let's check that out. >> But this is the Renee Good, and then there's the ice shooting, and then the car kind of backs up. >> And you can see that lady, that lady is not part of the production item, I think. >> So, you know, can I just say something, I watched, I had watched that, but I didn't have the sound on. >> So this is all brand new to me. Do we know who the woman is, singing Ben Shapiro is a cuck? >> I mean, I'm not sure, that's one of the protesters, or one of them, like the real-life protesters. >> The real protesters. >> So, does that seem like kind of a crazy scene, I don't know. >> I want to play it again, if you want to play it again. >> Yeah, let's play the game. >> It's blood. >> [APPLAUSE] >> So the lady with her dog in the back, I pause it. >> All right, go back two frames, so your contention is this woman on the bottom right. >> Yeah, and I think I have a great shirt. >> And the guy in the gray shirt are actually not extras, they're just watching. >> Yeah. >> Why the hell would they let them get this close to it? >> It's crazy, and so this is on a residential street, and we'll get into this. This is supposed to just also, this is supposed to resemble Minneapolis. It looks nothing like it. >> All right. >> All right. >> So yeah, so this rabble here. They're extras. >> Okay. >> All right, let's play. [MUSIC] >> And then there's the ice guys at the bottom. >> All right, stop, stop, you could see the woman screaming down there on the bottom left, find her, you found her. So that's her, she's holding a microphone, she's in a purple shirt, she's literally 10 to 15 feet away from the entire set. And she's just screaming into a microphone that Ben Shapiro is a cock. >> Like a megaphone, yeah. >> No, she's not, she's holding a microphone, you can see the wire. >> Oh, you're right, yeah, maybe they must have some speakers set up. >> Yeah, so she, they let them get that close. looking at cigarette after 30 years. - She's smoking a cigarette or a joint. She's 10 feet away from the set. They let her get that close with a microphone and a speaker and she's just screaming, "Ben Shapiro is a cuck." This is incredible. All right, keep going. (singing in foreign language) Oh, see that lady rolls out of the way. Okay, that lady looks like, okay, stop. She's got a dog. The dog's attached tranquil. She's absolutely not an extra. She's freaked out. She thought she was about to get run over. - Yeah, so here's the deal. - Do you think this was unionized or now? - No, it's very much not union. This is a big part of the drama. They don't have Ayatsi, which I'm sorry I'm not a Hollywood guy, but apparently they're good to have on the set. But basically, yeah, we can tick the video down there. So essentially what has happened now is on Saturday, the town commission voted to pull the permits for this production. This is the big development. So they cannot legally shoot. I think they had booked three weeks of street closures and stuff. So this was going to be in the town for a long time. Now, I watched four hours of town meeting on this. Here's the deal. Basically, these folks rolled into town. They emailed the town. They said, "Hey, can we get a permit?" And the town was like, "Oh, yeah, sure, click." There was very little process. The locals looked at the permits and it said, "Okay, the application, what's your security plan?" And A. And A was on the, oh my God. And so someone jumped and it stood for, no, an armed man will terrorize our town or something. But basically this production has gone so crazy in a way that I didn't realize when I initially wrote about it. Number one, they've blocked access to like the town's key food bank. 'Cause basically this is like the Antifa siege of the pawn shop across from the food bank. People who on that block where, you know, look, that's a big scene going down. People are saying there was no notification. Oh, maybe some people were notified some weren't. There are, there are veterans having PTSD flashbacks. Apparently there was a mental health incident where the police had to be called. 'Cause some guy was like, just panicking. 'Cause there was like a shootout. I mean, who's like, like, you're talking like Mac 10 type machine gun shootouts in the middle of this sleepy town. The security on the production, it's interesting the protesters were able to get that close. Because the security on the production has been wearing body armor, they're armed. Apparently they've been very aggressive with people. It's just been running a month. - What was the meat? So who held the meeting? Was it just like the air zone? - It's in the town commission. - Essentially, it's like the town council. - And you spent four hours watching this? It was live streamed? - Yeah, and the town was very, very nice to share the video with me very quickly. And so, I mean, so I'll be writing about it tonight and false flag. It is like every scene. It's like people said they had no notification. You know, basically, this has just been crazy. They're saying, look, our town. - Do we know how the daily wire settled on Livingston is the place to film? - There's a movie ranch nearby. - Oh yeah, you can see that. - But it's funny, 'cause I sort of assumed most of it would be taking place on the movie ranch, but that's apparently not the case. Maybe it is now. And so we also found out, so we knew Danny Trejo was part of this production. Also Harvey Kytel, who I assumed is kind of the, Danny Trejo, I guess, is the Hispanic pawn shop owner. And Harvey Kytel is sort of the aged pawn shop security card. - What kind of money are they throwing at these things? - So the city manager said the budget is $1.5 million. - Oh my God, I don't get it. I mean, maybe they're making some money on the subscriptions, they must be. This makes no sense to me. - So, you know, a point about the security there. I will say when I saw that video, even just the extras, let's say the protesters and that old lady out of it, even the protesters, it seems a little run and gun with that car backing up and everything, it seems a little crazy. Even if you had gotten everyone else out of the scene. Now, a couple of things, the run-hide fight in Fidel's was a famously unsafe set. Jonathan Majors fell out of a window. - A little window. - Someone got like hit with a mic or a light or something. It was all this crazy stuff, but don't worry. We got a new guy who knows all about film set safety. He's the producer from Rust. The movie where Alec Baldwin shot someone. - Oh God, no. - Okay, so we got, we have a great team. - I can't believe, I don't wanna like just gloss over the fact that Harvey Kay tells in this movie. Like, dude, it was in Resvard Dogs and Pulp Fiction. What the fuck? - How did this happen? - Yeah, this owner of a diner was like Harvey Kytel and Danny Treo have been hanging out at the diner, which is cool, I guess. Unfortunately, this production is otherwise terrorized down down to Livingston. - Producer Matt says Harvey Kytel is 87 years old, so maybe he's just not aware that he's in a movie. - He's just a vinyl bag. - Oh my God, this is so depressing. And there's security for Rust. - That's really bleak. That's like the lowest possible. - Yeah, so he's gonna have a big moment in the movie where he tells the heroin addict to get it together. - Who is? - Ah, Harvey Kytel. Yeah, that's his big kind of moment. - Oh my God. - Again, that security guy from the set of Rust is-- - Unreal, it's like-- - Yeah, it's one of the producers. It really is crazy. Like-- - I'm trying to think of like a parallel here. Like, what would it be? - According to the people who were testifying at the town council hearing, I think obviously after the Rust shooting, using real guns has really fallen out of favor in the industry. And a lot of that is added in post-production in terms of the muzzle flashes and things like that. But they're claiming that real guns are still very much in the mix on this set. So-- - They do. - They'd be like taking the guy who oversaw FEMA during her King Katrina and like putting him on, you know, levy construction somewhere else. - Look, we know we're in a mess up in North Carolina. We have a new FEMA director. - Yeah, it's this guy, Brownie. So yeah, this should work really well. You mentioned that you got this news when you were at some sort of-- - Yeah, I am with your wife. - I was seeing a book podcast thing for the-- Sam, are you familiar with the podcast? Who weekly? - No. - It's sort of a celebrity comedy podcast. I'm a hooligan. If there's any hooligans out there. And so my wife and I were-- - That's a terrific will here. Okay, yeah, this is a popular podcast. - And so my wife and I were out there seeing it. And I got my email back from the city manager confirming the permit was gone or it had been pulled. And you know, I didn't want it. I was like, you know, this isn't quite worth saying to my wife, hey, move. I got a sneak out and send a tweet. - Yeah, so it did lead me to ask you a question before we started taping. What would be the level of story for you to, you know, like you're with your wife at something, you're trying to make sure that the marriage still has spark. And some mega story breaks and you have to decide, do I ditch my wife to go tweet about it? Or do I like save the marriage? And I'm just kind of curious like, what's the level of story after what you would say? Yeah, I got to go tweet about that. - It's a good question. And I actually discussed this with her as well. - Oh, no, you did. I think, I think a Milo getting deported level story, like where it was just like, oh my God. - Yeah, we got to think about the tears here. So there's like Milo getting deported, Elijah Schaefer, if he were like to be posting a video of him walking through a hotel basement that's flooded. - The back room, would that be it? - No, I don't think that's going to happen. - No, Candace, Candace being like, yeah, I'm a lesbian. - Yeah, Candace coming out, tenant media, you know, with Russian payments, the first time, first time. - We need to, we need to, someone in the chat in the comments come up with like different tears. Well, I want four tears, like, one tear, like yeah, obviously I'm treating the shit out of that. I might go, I might go live with Sam. Two being like, I'm treating it, but I do it with some trepidation 'cause I'm worried about my wife. Three is, boy, I really want to treat this, but I value my marriage. And that's three, and then four would be like, this can be saved for, it's gonna be, be matter for the newsletter. I want names for those, for those levels. We'll get back to that. - I feel like my blood is still pumping from that video. It looks so, it's just crazy. It's really reckless. I'm glad that they shut it down. Not because I want, I want the movie to be shut down. I was actually kind of looking forward to it. I find these movies like Black Comedy, to be honest. I thought the run-hide fight in Finales was, I mean, all the clips I saw from that one, I couldn't like quite stop laughing 'cause they were so over the top. So I did kind of want to see what this, and maybe they still will produce it. But now that I'm watching it, I feel like the town did a service, and one of the extras there might have gotten run over accidentally, and so, at some point you do have to say, you know what, maybe we shouldn't have this happen in our town, right? - Well, there's gonna be a hearing today, to see if they get the permit back. So, you know, it may be you may still be here. - I'm as a hearing. That's probably the newsletter. - Yeah, so I should figure that out. Geez Louise, okay, well, we'll be watching that. Hey guys, we're gonna have to go to a quick commercial back before we get to Kempax and some other stuff. There's a lot of other stuff on the flip side is, but I also just want to say, and we're gonna say now I'm gonna say at the end of the show, we have this great new offer for folks on the sub-stacks side, not on the YouTube side, and I apologize to the YouTube side. We'll figure out what we can do for you guys. But there is a new offer on the sub-stacks side that we just. us launch today. It's 30% off of a full year of the bull work. So, you know, you do the math 30% off. It's a great deal. We're doing it right now because we just hit October. We have the election closing. We're calling it the October surprise. It's a good surprise in this case. So basically, you're going to get all our great content. You don't have to worry about the paywalls anymore.

I actually know firsthand how much therapy can help when I was a kid. I had this very intense fear that whenever my parents traveled something very bad would happen to them whether it was a plane or a train, even a long car ride, it was bad. It wasn't a fear I could just reason myself out of. I was a kid. And seeing a therapist gave me a way to talk through that anxiety. It genuinely helped me get past something that was really scary. There's one reason I appreciate how accessible Talkspace makes therapy. You don't have to rearrange your life around getting to an office, and most insured members have a zero dollar copay.

I know, we're really getting into it. That's just how much I love our community. You gotta do it. All right, Ken Paxden. So, everyone knows who Ken Paxden is, but for those who I guess don't and battled Senate Republican candidate in Texas. Trump keeps showing up in Texas. And keeps telling people how physically disgusting he finds Ken Paxden, repulsive, and he doesn't in a very Trump-y way. You might not like the guy. He might think he's hideous. Speak out out for him. And so, this keeps happening. And for some reason, there continues to be leaks of audio from Ken Paxden's campaign. The first was, it was the times that had a leak about the state of his campaign. And then this won over the weekend where he basically was like, oh, the first one was about, sorry, the first one was Politico. And it was about how the convention, the mid-term convention that Trump had in Texas, the one in which Trump sort of trotted out his line that Ken Paxden is physically repulsive, was not helpful to Ken Paxden, shockingly. Ken Paxden was, his quote was, so to be honest with you, the numbers, when we did that convention, it dropped our numbers. Everybody's numbers dropped. Right now, yeah, not good. And now we have another leak from Ken Paxden, basically where he's like, oh, my God, I can't even do anything on my campaign because it's just nationally focused. The national Republicans are running this thing. And by golly, I would love to make some decisions. And I just can't because all these people and DC are running, running show here. I'm more intrigued by the fact that this is the second leak from the campaign. I am too. When wonders if there is one mole, multiple moles, I mean, the first leak, I felt like it was speaking to donors. I feel like that's a classic thing to leak because you just have a lot of people on the call or something. This one is intriguing. It seems a little more closely held. Yeah. And I guess, you know, part of me is sort of like, well, of course, you're you're getting, you know, national or the national Republicans are orchestrating this thing. They're literally putting like hundreds of millions of dollars into your race. And I'm just going to like hand you 200 million dollars. The whole entire reason they're spending 200 million dollars or whatever on your races because you suck and you haven't been able to do anything. If you didn't suck so bad, they wouldn't have to spend the money. But that money comes with some strings, right? Like you're not going to just be able to keep sucking. So like, yeah, no shit impacts. And this is what's going to happen. So to me, the more interesting one was the first leak. And I think we have the audio of it. If we do, can we play it? And if there are ways come from other people, a lot of times, which you don't control. So I have a little controller in my bucket. That's about it. In my little bit of time, if I can go out as many people as I can, but I've never been in a race where I've thought less control over the like the campaign and like what issues are going to matter because it's all coming, you know, from DC and I don't control the message or what we're doing. Or I can't, I have no, I don't have the ability to change anything. So I have to live with whatever I've got. So it is a challenge. And it's that's what the hopefully this polling will help us figure out. Make sure that we are maximizing every set so that people understand the difference between me. All right. That's the new one. And that was him saying that he's getting controlled by DC. We don't have the old one because it's a couple weeks old. Yeah. You know, as you said, it's like, yeah, no kidding, man. But I think like hearing that, it has a real like all these leaks. It has a real like the walls are closing in. And I know we're all a little wary of blue Texas and things like that. But I mean, this feels like a guy who feels cut off from the national party, who feels frustrated. He knows he's losing. He didn't sound particularly upbeat. No, I mean, he's getting, you know, I think he's bummed out. You know, I do love the idea of them being like, look, Ken, we're going to run things. We're in charge now. And you know, that thing being like, look, the president, he's going to call you repulsive. He's going to say he hates your guts. You look, you dress like crap. You know, that's part of the plan, Ken. I know you might not like it. It's going to work. Trust the plan, Ken. You just got to do a bunch of shit. He sounded so defeated on that. I guess the other thing is like, maybe this is just his, no, it's not. I was going to say, this is him trying to pre-but a loss. But I don't think Ken packs and savvy enough to leak audio from these things to like pre-but. I think someone is in the, in the campaign operation or nearby, where it was just like, you know what, I'm going to record this shit and just leak it because Ken sucks, which meant making a little more paranoid about things. But two leaks is not great. Not great at all. No, I think Telefrico is closing in. Well, you got some Texas roots, right? Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. Hello, down there. That was so bad. Can we try again? That was the worst Texas accent. That's how I was back in the day growing up. Houston, Houston. That was where it went down, you know, rode a horse to school every day and all that stuff. I will say though, I'm getting a little alarmed because another just brief Texas political news as people probably saw the story about how Trump's economic policies are really raising the price of salsa. Yeah, they can't do free chips in salsa anymore. Yeah, restaurants are going to pull it now. Look, I grew up on free salsa at places like papacitos, canteena, and the idea that, you know, they're going to pull that, you know, it's really alarming to me. Well, now, see, now you're actually coming across as a true Texan. Say it again with the condiment. How do you pronounce it? I call it salsa. Salza? Salza. And you know, almost like a Z people can flag that. But I'm a big time. You know, I believe you actually had my salsa when we were at the daily beast. I brought in a huge thing of it that I made. And I do remember that you accused me of bringing in restaurant salsa because it was so good. Did I say that? Like, you pick this up at Tartian coast or something? Yeah. I can't imagine I'm like a kind of impressed like colleague. Well, you know, it's not always, you know, it probably was the first and last time I had a Kylie come and be like, "Yeah, I made some salsa." And I was like, "What did you make?" You know, I have a couple. Some people call it salsa, yes. But I'll tell you what, just don't call me late to dinner with the free salsa. Okay. You think the chips thing is going to matter? I actually think these are the things that you get pissed off bad. It's like, "Oh, my God, we lost free chips in salsa." Yeah, I mean, I think if these restaurants had a sign that said, "Well, by the way, you get an absolutely slammed in the comments right now." It's so good. Someone will sounds like a European visiting. I'm from Texas and I'm cringing at salsa. Please stop saying salsa. There's no Z in salsa. Saliza, so many times. People are just absolutely killing you right now. Oh, my God. I got some work. Saliza dancing. - Looks, this is great opportunity. We're gonna, Will's gonna go home and he's just gonna make some salsa. And then he's gonna brand it, Will's salsa. - Will salsa. - Yeah, and we're gonna sell it on the bulwark merch store. - That's a good idea. - Yeah, Will's, yeah, you know, folks, I like, you know, I roast the peppers and everything. Oh my gosh. This was very much a pre-kid hobby for me. It was spending like three hours making salsa. - So the average night for Will, I would say on Saturdays, he spent all day making the salsa. And then he and the wife go out to some book podcast and he's checking Twitter. Comes home and puts on some bravo show and just gorgeous. On ships. - Yeah. That's awesome. - No, you know, just very briefly, when I would visit my parents, they would get me a gallon from this papacitos place. And then so over the courses. - Like a literal gallon, like a gallon. They're like a huge bucket. And it's obviously, and typically they give it out for free. And so they'll say, I guess we'll give you just, do you want like a little pint of salsa for free? And it's like, no, no, no, I'm willing to pay. I just need like a gallon of it. And then I would just sort of eat it over the course of the visit. - A gallon. - Yeah. That's so much. - Well, they do a lot. - Well, you know, how long does the salsa last? I mean, you're eating fast, I guess. - About a week, you know, I mean, I, I like, you know, there's a lot of, there's a lot of work. - You're the gallon of salsa for the course of a week. - You know, there's a lot of, we do things a little different down Texas way. And maybe that's something Ken Paxson could pick up on. Maybe if he was saying, you know, his audio is like, you didn't get my gallon. We all have our gallons of that. (laughs) - Now, this is the way that Paxkin can properly break from Trump if he needs to. He's gotta say, now the president, I love him. Love him, but he's gone too far with this salsa. (laughs) - Yeah, that would be a good way to distance himself. - Yeah, I'm just worried about the salsa. - You should call it salsa too. Oh my God. I did not expect this to turn. Are you just getting absolutely slammed in the comments? - I gotta be me folks. You know, how do I say sorry? People don't like how I say sorry. - Story? - It sounds a little Canadian. - How do you pronounce the fluid that is H2O? - Water? - Okay, some people say water. - You know, I like, you know, people come for the, you know, I have some idiosyncrasies, some good, some bad, you know. - No, it's great. I love it. That's the best, that's the best thing I've ever had in a lot. Long time, trying to get steered back onto the tracks here. Another character in our catalog, data Republican. - Yes. - Jenna Capowns. For folks who don't know, we'll kind of blew up her world a little while ago when it was reported that she is not in fact a weirdo online who's posting wildly misleading graphs seemingly trying to uncover corrupt USAID spending and accusing our dear colleague Bill Crystal of being part of some sort of government plot. I don't really get what she was going for there, but whatever. She was actually on the D.I.D. payroll. Oh no, she revealed that herself. Sorry, you didn't blow her up. - Yes. - Yes. No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. Someone else did. Some random Twitter guy. - No, no, it was the, it was the, it was the, it was the gripper. - It was a gripper. Okay. - And then the D.O.D. confirmed it. But basically, yeah. So this lady was secretly on the D.O.D. payroll as a special government employee, which is sort of like a temporary employee. And then we wrote about how there were these other ones and then the Washington Post uncovered some more. These sort of influencers were secretly working for the Pentagon. And now, Jenna, and by the way, whoever put together our planning doc described for her is Jessica. And I said, I can see why you would think her name is Jessica because it's a normal name. Her name is Jenika. And so she announced her resignation. I think we have the tweet. Essentially, she said, there we go. She says, I do wanna say I'm disappointed by how special government employees, not just myself have been treated in public discourse. So essentially, she's stepping back to focus on her book tour. - She's got a book coming out. - Yeah, she has a book. A book coming out from passage press. The publisher of a big time, "Fascist Books" from World War II. Also the head of passage press. People may remember as the guy who was addressing the Indian question last week on "Magamundan." - Yeah, yeah, yeah. - So unsayery group of people, she's quitting. I'm very curious about what led to her quitting. - Very chatter. - I should. I should. You know, Jenika typically does not talk to me, but yeah. - Well, maybe she's disillusioned with the government and needs to get out and wants to spill the beans. You never know with these things, right? Kind of odd timing, right? Like, Hexeth is making these weird speeches. There's a lot of unrest in the defense department right now. She seemed like a loyalist, but, you know, huh. There's gotta be something here. - It's interesting, for sure. It's one wonders if, you know, her, she had some resignation that was tied to, you know, the end of September or something like that. But, you know, also, this is what's weird. She started, I think, as a special government employee at the start of August, I think. So, you know, she's only supposed to do it for two months. It seems like there's a little more to this story that we're not getting. - Yeah, there's something there. I mean, she's not the only one that can kind of vaguely, or not vaguely, really cryptic announcements on Twitter, where you're sort of left wondering. Shavanz Ellis, Elon Musk's partner. I don't even know if we have the tweet here 'cause we didn't even prep for it, but she kind of, like, abruptly announced that they had, I guess, broken up, 'cause the tweet was very weird about it. And, like, included, like, a screen grab of Elon not following, unfollowing her on Twitter, which was super bizarre. - Yeah, basically one of these accounts that follows who Elon unfollows said, Elon unfollowed Shavanz Ellis. You know, the mother of, I think, four of his children. - Right. - And the cheat posted, you know. - I have the tweet here, but we don't have it on the site. I can read it, if you want. - Yeah, please do. - Yeah, read some of it. - It's very long, but she says, "I'm hard to go from in love and let go in a week with no warning, "but that's just how it is sometimes," then she has one of these emojis where a little person sort of-- - Shrug emoji. - Shrug. I feel happy that I got to show you on how it feels to be deeply understood, nurtured, and peacefully loved with stability and gentleness, given the tumultuousness, tumultuous nature of his early life. I would argue it's still tumultuous. He's often tortured soul and how hard he fights for humanity. I want him to feel the deepest and most stable form of love. This world can provide my heart as full knowing I got to do that, and I hope it leaves a lasting good effect. I'm gonna keep-- I'm gonna speed ahead here. I've loved him more than life itself, and he's taught me 100 lifetimes of knowledge and made my cup overflow with life meaning. So there's a lot of loss. Luckily, we created for a beautiful little loves of my life. I'm so beyond grateful for our children, and they make every single day the best day of my life. I do hope and pray he and I can get-- can be great friends and co-parents. I'm hurting, but care deeply about E. And we'll always be cheering for his happiness. Godspeed, Elon, the world is lucky to have you. And then comes like the very bizarre part, where she includes a text ostensibly from Elon. Where it totally like random, I don't really understand it. Where he's saying, it was, I don't know, she's saying. It was really lovely. Wonderful to see you for breakfast. Love you very much. He apparently responds, love you too. I didn't realize this cheese general, Xi Jinping. State dinner included significant others. Beijing one did not, or I would have invited you. Then she responds, all that means so much to me. Thank you, heart. And that's it. Girl? Have some self-respect. That's my advice. What was the significance of this tweet? I think it's supposed to show that they were on good terms up until like five days ago. I guess. So right then, well, and then of course, her responses were all Elon fans saying, shut up, don't put our man's business out there. Sam, there's a thing, you're probably not aware of this. There's a movement online called Female Dating Strategy. And this movement, it's a subreddit. I think it was banned for extremist views. But essentially, it advises women to ask more from their romantic partners, to say, don't date a bum. Define the situation, shift, move on, whatever. And reading this message, I felt that Shavan could really do with a visit to Female Dating Strategy. Because this idea of this guy, basically, he doesn't even follow you anymore. He dumps you on, by the way, at the website he owns. All this stuff. And she's just like, wow, what a riot it's been. He's taught me more than 100 lifetimes. Oh, brother. Bazaar people. It's just like a different universe. They exist on where social interactions get broadcast. For everyone to see, I don't know. This whole thing is bad. Elon has so many kids by so many people. And we started this whole show with a nod to love with cash. And it feels like a sad book end that we're talking about end of love here. But so we must. There is one last story. Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait. Can we talk about Tucker and Jacob Riesmog? Oh, wait, we have three more stories. Jesus Christ. Okay. Let's go fast because it's been a little bit quickly. We'll go quickly. We're at 50 minutes in. Hold on. I'm going to do rapid fire. Okay. Laura Lumer, Air Force one. Go. Laura Lumer took Air Force one. There they are. Smiling away. Big thumbs up. Laura Lumer took Air Force one to Trump's rally in Alabama. This is interesting. I think this is the first time Laura has been back on Air Force one since the campaign when they were allegations, you know, are sickle perhaps that they were having an affair, then she got kicked off. of Air Force One essentially as a result she claimed. So, you know, this shows she's back in the mix. Didn't she ride with him to like the 9/11 Memorial or something like that? Yeah, that was a mid, that was during the campaign stuff. Yeah, yeah, yeah. No, that's what I meant, yeah. Yeah, exactly, exactly. And people are like, whoa, that's crazy. You can't be associated with her and now she's like the most influential advisor in Washington, DC. And during Trump's rally, he said she's a great strategist. It's interesting because this also comes amid, she's been very unhappy with Trump because he's getting along well with Zoran Mamdani. Mamdani, she hates Muslims. So, she's been very unhappy about that. But it's so it's interesting. I don't know if there's tons we can draw from it at the moment besides just like general insanity of it, but there you go. Yeah, it's like a classic over-tune window shifting moment for us where it's like no one cares that she's on Air Force One, but it was a huge deal during the campaign when she was on the plane. Just the way the world works, I suppose. All right, there was a moment over the weekend involving Vivek Ramaswami trying very hard to lift a child at a rally. Do we have the video if so? Can we play the video? One more time. One more time, it's difficult. Vivek has a few of these moments. The tennis, sorry, the baseball. Trying to hit a baseball was one of them now failing to pick up a small child. Although it looks like a big hearty child, I will say those are high old kids. They may not look big, but they are thick. I could lift that kid pretty easily, I think. I'd have to see him up close. But people are saying he's 10. He looks a little younger than that to me. I don't know. Like I said, Ohio kids, they drink tons of milk. They're hearty heartland boys. Yeah, you're right. They're working in the fields since they're high. Not like my tribe. My tribe are all skinny and in need of like some protein. That kid looked like he was thick. So I'm not like discounting that. He was heavy, but Vivek shouldn't have even tried. We're not here to talk about that. We're here to talk about Dinesh D'Souza defending this. So why don't you take this? Yeah. So Dinesh, he says, hey, that kid, he's not that small. Quite obviously, he's also resisting. People after the fact saying like he's resisting is though it's like a police shooting or something. They're just like, they're just like, hey, that kid was resisting. I mean, look, I will say even a lot of liberal dads on Twitter, I saw we're sort of like, look, who hasn't nearly dropped a kid? You know, I mean, these kids are a little heavier than they seem. And obviously the kid does do some kind of flop. Does he? Is that obvious? There is kind of a point where he's doing the like, you know, dead body, civil, passive resistance kind of thing. You don't. Yeah. Kids part of this is the idea. The kids part of the deep state like trying to remember. He was he was sensitive to embarrassed. He was kind of sucking in his guts. So Vivek thought he could pick him up. And then he said, just kidding. I'm a lot better. Is there nothing George Soros won't do to win these elections sending little kid agents to the stage with Vivek? He's like, hey, kid, I want you to go bodyweight completely dead as soon as become a noodle and just fall over. No, that kid, there's not resisting. I feel like that's bullshit. Dinesh should take that back. Okay. So then Dinesh wasn't done apparently because he put up another tweet. Fact check. I promised I'm going to try to live on stage is 10 years old. Why do you put location? Why did he have to do is like, it's some sort of police report. Oh, they're child serifin. Yeah, because he says location. Vandalia Ohio child's name hunter. As though like, we're supposed to draw that like, well, Vandalia boys are very heavy. They're known for their strength, their readiness and, you know, hunter. That's a rambunctious boys name. That's exactly what a hunter would do. That is too funny. He was responding. Dinesh was responding to Kyle Serifin. We already mentioned this podcast. Second Kyle Serifin mentioned. Kyle was responding to the earlier of a Dinesh tweet saying, Oh, the five-year-old was resisting. Man, these people are so great. All right, moving on, Tucker. Yeah. I don't even know what that was going on here. So Tucker did an interview with Jacob Riesmog, who's the inventor of Mogging, perhaps. And he is a, you know, British conservative politician and very much of the kind of like, you know, Downton Abbey conservative old school. And he's advocating for Britain to arm up in case of, you know, sort of dissuade Russia from bothering NATO. And Tucker, obviously, he loves Russia. And so they do this interview. And I would really recommend people check it out because it's sort of gratifying hearing a conservative who like supports the post-war order. Also, Tucker, this guy's obviously very well read. He's talking about like the end of the Napoleonic Wars, all this stuff. And Tucker is just, it's interesting kind of, gives you a sense of where Tucker is these days, where he's just like, we should just surrender to Russia. You know, I mean, it's this weird thing where he's just like, is it worth basically a lot of it is him saying was Britain should Britain have fought Hitler or just kind of give it up. And Jacob Riesmog says, I think it was good to fight Hitler. Yeah, I think that was good that we beat Hitler. And he goes, but I don't know, you lost India after World War II. And he's like, that's not really directly related, I suppose. But like, I mean, there's a lot of this weird thing. And Tucker really has no idea what he's talking about on a lot of these. So let's play this clip that kind of sums it up. Thanks for playing why Russia would want to pick a fight with Britain. It's got a much larger economy than Britain's by, I think, basically, no, no, no, no, no, it hasn't got larger economy than Britain. It's got smaller economy than Britain's larger. It's got larger military. There's much larger economy. It has much more wealth and resources. It's got a much larger manufacturing sector. GDP is smaller than the UK's. Yeah, it's about two. It's about two. It's not. I mean, the only measure of an economy, it's an important measure of an economy. No, no, it's one measure. Russia is Russia's an economic failure that it could have a huge. But it's got a small economy. So and then later Tucker goes, well, they have a lot more like resources in the ground. And the guy's like, okay, well, like African countries, they have a lot of resources in the ground. I mean, it's this very weird exchange. And then this happens over and over where Tucker says, do you think America, like, do you think your country is better off because you won World War 2? And Jigory is more goes, like, do I wish Hitler ran Europe? No, I don't. Like, it's a very weird exchange. It is a little bit weird. You know, it's not like when Tucker gets actually challenged and someone's like, actually, no, you're full of shit. And it kind of produces interesting results because people don't always do that with Tucker. One of his gist is that he just kind of overwhelms you. Yeah, that that is interesting. I'm not knew that Tucker is kind of Hitler curious. Yeah, no, for sure. I mean, but typically he's with the pro-Hitler or at least anti-Hitler. I feel like, no, I feel like, so I guess I may be I'm wrong about this and I apologize if I'm, I do feel like there's been a thread of argument that's persisted that England would have been better off if they just had some sort of resolution with the Nazis in 39 rather than engage in that they could have had some sort of, I don't know, armistice, I guess, where none of World War II would have happened. That's been percolating for a bit. Well, and Tucker has been promoting a lot of that with the Daryl Cooper, the podcaster he went on who is like Churchill was the greatest villain of World War II and yeah, I mean, he's kind of a big font of that stuff. Well, classic, I guess. All right, finally, the last, this is a fun one. Apparently this happened a little while ago, no one noticed it, but it kind of blew up on the on the inner webs yesterday and I was just chuckling the entire time. So let's play this Fox News clip of a guy who claimed that he went to heaven. In days you were in that coma, you had this experience, you came face-to-face with your savior and then you woke up. How has your life been different since that experience? Yeah, now with every single person I meet, I tell them of the love of Christ and that he did it all for them and he died and rose again and also I love how, you know, all these other testimonies, they didn't meet a female Jesus, they didn't meet a soft or a passive Jesus. Jesus is a man and especially in America, he's been misrepresented and especially even, you know, there's so many cultural things that present him as if as if he's some just tolerant guy. It's not that Jesus I met, he's a lion, but he's not a lion angry against me, he's a lion angry for me, he's a Mustang on my back, he did it all for me. And what did he look like when you saw him? Pure fire, he was 5'11" like six feet, yet as tall as eternity, like an ocean of love, yet his eyes were burning white and red at the same time and I mean talk about testosterone, like a Mustang I'm telling you, he's the lion of Judah and there's a roar within his voice. The Chad of Judah. This is a tough one. This is a tough one. Well, you know, I'll note I'm 5'11" that's the the holy height it would appear. And your testosterone is in the scribe that's Mustang level. The testosterone it goes on for eternity, like, you know, this is an interesting guy. I did a little research. It's all the salsa. I did a little research on Gabe Poirot here, our friend. Yeah. He was on the Christian Broadcasting network about his accident. And I will say, like, I'm glad you're feeling better, Gabe. He got him. Yeah. His accident was in the funniest possible way. He was riding one of those little electric like the one-wheel skateboard where it's like one wheel in the center and it's like Gabe and the boys were out riding their skateboards together. You have two things to stand. Yeah, I know what you're saying. Yeah, and they like hit a rock or something. So that's kind of how Gabe and so the broadcasting network thing they did a reenactment of it where they're like whoa like the boys are out and they're oh no. And so yeah, I just find it really funny when the how he tries to like quantify it so specifically like say Jesus was like 511 and then I think he realizes that sounds down and he's like but he was as tall as eternity. Yeah, it's just you yeah you start watching you're like okay this guy's obviously religious something tragic happened to him I didn't realize it was that it's still a tragedy. I'm glad he's feeling better and I don't begrudge anyone for finding religion in deep dark moments and then you keep going and you're like wait a second come on. His testosterone was insane. His testosterone. He was just a strong Mustang. What are we talking about here? Fox, what are you doing? platforming this guy? Did they not do a pre-interview? Like come on. Well, this guy's a big deal. He's like hugely successful YouTuber. He might have more for YouTube followers than the bulwark does. And he has a book, you know, it's I got really into the world of NDE's or near death experiences. He's very popular there. Okay. Well, maybe that's what we have to do is just like I don't know. Maybe we can get egg her to like go into a coma and find something right around. Yeah, right around get it. Just knock it and lock himself out for a week, find some sort of deity that has a lot of tea and write about it and then we can break some YouTube subscription records for the book. I'm just joking. I don't want anyone to do that. Okay, we made it over an hour. Wow, I'm going to do something quickly because all this talk of salsa and the possibility of merchandising it. We actually, we sent producer Matt to the field to grab some tomatoes and to start really creating our own brand of salsa that we're going to sell in our merch store. Let's put up the label that we made for it. Yeah, there it is. We'll salsa. There it is. We love. It should have a Z. We'll salsa. Beautiful. That's the whole point of salsa. We got to go see on it. Yeah, I love that stuff, folks. That that looks fine. I like that the AI gave us a couple cilantro leaves there and some hot peppers and some chips and we're going to be not actually we're not going to be creating that. That was just a gag. All right, before we go, one last thing I said was going to do it twice. 26 20 26 midterm elections are only a few weeks away.
