Podcasts about Talarico

In this episode of Verdict with Ted Cruz, Senator Ted Cruz and Ben Ferguson examine newly released economic data showing record median household income, historically low poverty rates, and continued low uninsured rates. They compare recent economic trends across different administrations, debate the role of media coverage in shaping public perception of the economy, and discuss the impact of data center construction on jobs, investment, and market growth.The conversation then turns to two high-profile Senate races. Cruz and Ferguson discuss undercover footage involving Texas Senate candidate James Talarico’s pastor, who comments on his campaign messaging and positions on transgender issues. They also examine reports surrounding Michigan Senate candidate Abdul El-Sayed, including controversy involving sermons by his imam, allegations concerning views on Hamas, and El-Sayed’s association with political commentator Hasan Piker. Throughout the episode, the hosts argue that voters should focus on candidates’ stated beliefs, past statements, and political records when evaluating campaigns. New Census Bureau data shows median household income reaching a record high while poverty and child poverty rates fall to historic lows. Senator Ted Cruz and Ben Ferguson argue that these economic indicators deserve far more attention and discuss why they believe the story has received limited media coverage. Topics Covered: Record-high median household income and historic poverty-rate data from the Census Bureau Child poverty reaching a reported all-time low Media coverage of economic news and competing national headlines Data center construction, job creation, and stock market growth James Talarico controversy involving comments from his pastor and campaign positioning Abdul El-Sayed, imam-related allegations, and debate over political associations Please Hit Subscribe to this podcast Right Now.

   What is it with all these fake dems running for Senate in Republican states?  Guys like Talarico and Al-Sayed and.... Pastor Adam Hamilton.  They are being so "outed" as liars and frauds it's embarrassing even by political standards.  The latest is a liberal candidate in Nebraska running as an "independent" caught on tape making fun of the people in a small town.... in his own state!  This dude may be the biggest fraud of all.    Trump keeps telling us gas prices are "a small price to pay" for the war in Iran.  For him, yes.  For all the rest of us, no.  It's one of the very few tone deaf things he's said as president.    Josh Hawley is not running for president if you were curious.    On Thursday, team KKHI took a beating at the hands of team Mundo at Uncle Hud's charity whiffle ball tourney to benefit www.thebattlewithin.org. It's ok... it's all about charity.  Rex Hudler took a few minutes to chat with me about why this is a passion of his and his thoughts on what the Royals could be next year.    Then, Lee Sterling of www.paramountsports.com has your pigskin picks in front of Sunday night's game  KU in London and the Cats and Tigers at home.   Our Final Final is tourists finding some long lost treasure.

How can this guy be anywhere near winning the Texas Senate seat? The more that comes out about his theology, the more insane that prospect is. But I know he's not alone with his blasphemy.

Congresswoman Jasmine Crockett is back in the headlines — and this time, the controversy involves politics, party unity and Chris Brown.Crockett is facing criticism after appearing at Chris Brown and Usher's concert in Arlington, Texas, where Brown received recognition entered into the Congressional Record. The decision has drawn backlash because of Brown's past legal history, including his 2009 felony assault case involving Rihanna.But there's another layer to this story.After losing the Democratic U.S. Senate primary to James Talarico, Crockett endorsed him, but when recently asked whether she would campaign with her former rival, she said her focus would be on helping down-ballot candidates across Texas. Crockett argues that building enthusiasm around multiple races can ultimately strengthen the entire Democratic ticket.So tonight on The Arrington Gavin Show, we're asking: Is the criticism of Crockett fair? Does appearing at a Chris Brown concert undermine her argument about where she wants to spend her political time? Should she be expected to actively campaign alongside Talarico after a contentious primary? And was honoring Chris Brown appropriate in the first place?We'll break down the controversy, the criticism and the bigger debate over party unity, accountability and political priorities.Fun! Informative! Opinionated!

On Wednesday's Mark Levin Show, the central AI debate is between freedom and government, and between knowledge and idiocy. These politicians, bureaucrats, and regulators think they know more than inventors, creators, and innovators, and are trying to make people fearful of technological advancement. We need to remember the politicians who oppose this progress; they're populists, nationalists, Marxists, and socialists who seek greater control while presenting their actions as protecting "the people." Government control of AI would be a power grab and would benefit Democrat political interests and favored groups, while also helping Communist China. Government and politicians need to keep their hands off and allow advancement to move forward. Also, Arkansas Senate candidate Hallie Shoffner says she would trade five Americans for one ‘undocumented immigrant.' Hardworking Americans pay taxes and contribute significantly to the country. Schaffner is ineffective and out of touch. Meanwhile, Texas Senate candidate James Talarico's pastor says that Talarico will return to his previous radical views after being elected. He is changing his message solely to gain political power. Later, gas prices are high but voters should not be discouraged from supporting Republicans in the midterm election. Electing Democrats by staying home on Election day will not lower gas prices. Democrats support policies that would raise costs, increase taxes, expand government power, and advance a radical agenda. Republican victories are necessary to maintain control of the House and Senate and prevent investigations, impeachments, and Democratic control of government. Low voter turnout could lead to the destruction of the economy and our republic. Afterward, Deuteronomy was the most widely read and cited book during the Revolutionary period, appearing more frequently in speeches, writings, and official documents than any other source. Figures such as Madison, Washington, Adams, and Jefferson repeatedly referenced the Hebrew Bible, not to promote Judaism, but because they saw parallels between ancient events and their own circumstances. Ideas from the Hebrew Bible helped shape arguments about natural law, natural rights, and the Creator, while also overlapping with Enlightenment thought, particularly that of John Locke, although Deuteronomy was cited even more frequently. Finally, Ben Shapiro calls in to discuss Daily Wire's new film - Run Hide Fight: Infidels. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

Join Jim and Greg for the Thursday 3 Martini Lunch as they dig into the New York Times having to issue an embarrassing correction about the terrorist attacks against Israel, James Talarico and his pastor proving his efforts to appear like a moderate on cultural issues is all fiction, the U.S. poverty rate hitting a record low, and Sen. Mitch McConnell proving he's no longer up to the job.First, they vent as the New York Times publishes a story stating "Israelis still view themselves as the victims of Oct. 7." In addition to the obvious reaction, Jim explains the double standard that exists in how the Times treats writings from the left vs. the right.Next, they react to James Talarico's pastor saying the candidate's advisers are telling him to sound more moderate on social issues but that Talarico will be just as far left as ever if he wins the U.S. Senate race. They also note Talarico being asked who is favorite drag queen is and immediately having an answer.Then, they celebrate news from the U.S. Census Bureau that the nation's poverty rate is now at an all-time low. Jim looks at the overall economic picture in light of this news. Greg compares the very different political reactions between record high government assistance and news like this.Finally, they cringe as it's clear Sen. Mitch McConnell is deeply confused at best and clearly seems incapable of doing his job any longer. They discuss how unfair this lack of transparency by McConnell's staff is to his constituents and how Democratic Kentucky Gov. Andy Beshear made this whole situation worse as well.Please visit our great sponsors:HomeServeProtect your home with HomeServe.  For 50% less your first year, go to https://HomeServe.com/Martini for the plan that's right for you.

Aaron McIntire covers the Federal Reserve's unanimous decision to raise interest rates despite President Trump's public frustration, amid a 31 year low in new home sales. He covers Vice President JD Vance's midterm messaging push, and undercover video obtained by the Daily Wire in which Texas Senate candidate James Talarico's own minister suggests Talarico is softening his positions purely for electoral purposes. Aaron also covers the arrest of Korby Allen Strube, a Kansas man accused of posting antisemitic death threats against Ben Shapiro tied to a Yom Kippur countdown, and White House Chief of Staff Susie Wiles announcing she is cancer free. He covers NFL star Travis Kelce being named a victim in a $35 million Ponzi scheme run by Indian national Siddharth Jawahar, and pushes back on California Governor Gavin Newsom's breezy CNN fly fishing interview reflecting on COVID era lockdowns.

When it comes to the war in Iran, my supposition is that the economic negativity driving the country — and creating an environment where Democrats could do very well in the midterms — is entirely about one thing: the price of gas. The war is incredibly unpopular, but it's different from the war in Iraq. Both were very expensive, but Iraq brought coffins back at a scale we haven't seen here. The biggest difference is what Americans are paying at the pump.According to AAA's live average, gas is at $4.44 nationally. It's higher in states like California and New York, but even here in Texas, where we have relatively low gas prices, it's edging toward $4. During the memorandum of understanding, that son of a b***h kissed the twos. Before the war in Iran, it was sitting around the twos. It's not good right now.The question is whether this is Iran's play. Iran is extraordinarily sophisticated in its understanding of the American electorate and the American democratic system. Are they timing their greatest chaos in the region to spike the price of oil as high as possible during election season? The United States appeared to have established a flow of tanker traffic through the Strait of Hormuz, but now we've seen missiles and drones fired at American vessels and major damage to Saudi Arabia's 745-mile east-west pipeline.Politics Politics Politics is a reader-supported publication. To receive new posts and support my work, consider becoming a free or paid subscriber.That pipeline can move four to five million barrels a day — roughly 4 to 5 percent of the global supply. Saudi Aramco has already told three European refiners they won't receive their full September allotments, forcing them to buy emergency stock on the open market. Because oil is a globally traded commodity, that drives up the price. Chevron CEO Mike Wirth has warned that stockpile releases and access to previously restricted oil stored abroad had constrained prices, but those buffers are now played out. Iran has been warning about $200-a-barrel oil since the beginning of the conflict.The obvious historical comparison is Jimmy Carter. But this isn't 1979. Headline inflation was 11.8 percent then, compared with 3.4 percent now, and unemployment was 6 percent instead of 4.1 percent. We're doing better by those measures, but will any of it matter? Gas was 98 cents a gallon in August 1979. In August 2026, it was $4.20, and it's even higher now.The sunniest version of Trump's tariff policy was that he'd become the greatest energy president of all time and drive gas prices low enough to give him room to negotiate better trade deals. All of that went out the window with the rush into Iran. Even if you don't totally hate the war from a foreign-policy standpoint, you can understand that this is political poison. It's strychnine for the average voter. Electing Trump was, in part, a cry for economic relief from people who didn't trust Joe Biden to provide it. The numbers currently suggest Democrats will receive that same benefit of the doubt. Whether it holds when people vote is the question.Chapters00:00:00 - Intro00:03:25 - Gas Prices00:16:34 - Update00:16:59 - Data Centers00:18:20 - ICE00:19:34 - Kennedy Center00:21:46 - Interview with Michael Cohen01:00:02 - Wrap-up This is a public episode.

On Episode 180 of The Alan Sanders Show, Alan starts with Universe 25, the crowded mouse-utopia experiment, and what it suggests about comfort, collapse and modern society. He then hits the House's last votes before recess, revelation from James Talarico's pastor that he is faking his walking-back of his more radical statements, more revelations about the Ed Sheeran tour issue and the lie of calling Gaza a "genocide." The show closes on today being Constitution Day, where we look back at the long summer in Philadelphia in 1787, the hard compromises that produced the charter and the months the Framers spent selling that plan to the states in what we now call The Federalist Papers.

NIOSA paused for 2027, city budget vote today, new Talarico ad full of falsehoods, Dems still losing their minds over AI, mass migration, and voting numbers.

Democrat Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (N.Y.) was confronted by TMZ and explained why she's boycotting Ed Sheeran as the drama surrounding his tour and Macklemore's removal continues. Since then, every opening act and Sheeran's touring band have dropped out of the show. Glenn breaks down the Left's hypocrisy in this instance, the impossible situation Ed Sheeran was placed in, and how almost nobody is thinking about the hardworking people who will be left empty-handed if the tour gets canceled. Glenn explains how both the Rose Garden unsealing of a Russian assassination-network indictment and the public acknowledgment of U.S. space weapons look like a coordinated warning signal to Moscow and China. Former Muslim Danny Burmawi joins to discuss why he proudly identifies as an "infidel" as he breaks down the dangers rooted within Islam. Does Senate candidate James Talarico (D-Texas) have a chance at turning Texas blue? Glenn, Jason, and Rikki go through some of the worst Talarico statements that should end his campaign in Texas.

James Talarico was asked one question at a Texas campaign stop: Who's your favorite drag queen in the state? He didn't hesitate. “Oh my gosh. Probably Alyssa Edwards.” Watch the clip. Then ask yourself if that's the reflex you want in a U.S. senator. Most Americans could not name a drag queen if you handed them a week. The Democratic Senate nominee in Texas had a name in under a second — and he smiled when he said it. The performer he picked, Alyssa Edwards, has described himself as a drag performer who works with children. That sits on top of Talarico's own 2023 line that Texas produces some of the best drag queens in the nation. Ken Paxton, his Republican opponent, asked the question a lot of regular people asked after the clip hit: What normal person can name his favorite drag queen this quickly? Paxton called him too weird and too radical for Texas. Pat also covered: McConnell was out three months — and he's missing again. Does he show up today for the farm bill? Talarico calls himself a Christian seminarian. He also said he's “a Christian who hates Christianity.” Judge Judy is giving up the gavel. The new Judge Judy is her son, Adam Levy. Ed Sheeran's tour debacle just got bigger — he dropped Macklemore, and now the openers are walking. There is news on the Clancy holdout juror: He's black, Haitian, and Catholic — and in hiding after her defenders came after him.

The news of Texas covered today includes:Our Lone Star story of the day: The answer to how the Lubbock County phantom commissioner pay scandal came about is quite simple and it wears a bow tie everyday. The Bowtie Bully's arrogance and political treachery that started, and has continued, all the mess is rooted in his disregard of taxpayer interests. All of this comes from his desire for revenge on Jason Corley for repeatedly being effective at stopping property tax hikes. County salary to Meurer now stops and DA says she's ‘looking into the matter' Lubbock County commissioners question pay for Precinct 2 seat amid legal dispute See and hear yesterday's comments.  Bowtie Bully Parrish's tepid defense over this is that the legal matter is not over. So what?! Is he endorsing the idea that his handpicked accomplice, Mark Meurer, should be paid $70,000 while not serving as a commissioner, even if because of a temporary court order? Our Lone Star story of the day is sponsored by Allied Compliance Services providing the best service in DOT, business and personal drug and alcohol testing since 1995.Off the cuff, little Jimmy “the Creep” Talarico was instantly able to name his favorite Texas drag queen!

THE JACK SHOW talks Arch apology, AI doom, the next COVID, surrogate nightmare, baby "namemaxxing", Talarico mythology.

James Talarico thought he had Ken Paxton in a box. After GOP Railroad Commission of Texas nominee Bo French posted a photo from the UT student section and said the problem in Texas is “far worse than anyone imagined,” Talarico quoted John Cornyn and went straight at Paxton: Condemn this “blatant racism,” or “cower to extremists.” Paxton didn't take the bait. He condemned racism — then pointed at Talarico's own record. White men as America's top terror threat. Praying to overcome his own “whiteness.” The substance underneath it is the part polite Texas will not say out loud: Generations of Texans poured money into UT, H-1B pressure at public universities is a live fight, Abbott already told state campuses to pause new H-1Bs, and a lot of families believe Texas kids are losing ground at the school their taxes built. You can argue about the photo. You cannot pretend the enrollment fight is a hallucination. Pat also covered: CIA and 9/11: Did the agency have a shot to stop it — and miss? Abbott and Paxton: Is the Texas GOP about to give the state away? An anti-Israel film called “Naza” gets a 25-minute standing ovation. Talarico walks Matthew 25 like a campaign sermon. BYU wins, and college football is finally back. Was Talarico asking a moral question, or running a campaign ambush? Have you watched Texas change and been told you're not allowed to notice?

-Bill Maher provides some unlikely common ground as Rob highlights Maher's criticism of reluctance to call terrorism “terrorism” and his arguments about radical Islam, Israel, Gaza and how attitudes toward 9/11 have changed over 25 years. -Rob turns Jimmy Kimmel's interview with Texas politician James Talarico into a theological fact-check-with-punchlines, ripping Talarico's use of Christianity to argue about Trump, immigration, Medicaid and transgender issues.

“I always think of myself as a Christian who hates Christianity. … [I am against] religion in neutral and public spaces. … The Bible is all over the place [on marriage and morality]. … I trust women [and men] to make their own decisions.” These are just a few quotes from Democratic candidate James Talarico, who is running (and leading in the polls) against Ken Paxton to replace John Cornyn as senator from Texas. If you have a sense of deja vu — that you heard this all somewhere before — you are right. In fact, one of America's most influential historical leaders said something similar more than 200 years ago.

The news of Texas covered today includes:Our Lone Star story of the day: Once again, a Bo French social media post gives every anti-Republican ammunition to label conservatives and Republicans as racists and/or bigots. Bo French is condemnable as much for his political stupidity as he is for the apparent bigotry of his online post BUT, don't buy into the media attempt to get you to vote for the Democrat over this. Big Media has been pushing outright bigotry and racism for years including Marxist Critical Race Theory and D.E.I. racism that includes a call for racial discrimination against Caucasians, Asians, etc.Ken Paxton Responds to James Talarico's Call to Condemn Bo French. Paxton is right on this. All these leftist Dems are race focused in almost everything they do.Our Lone Star story of the day is sponsored by Allied Compliance Services providing the best service in DOT, business and personal drug and alcohol testing since 1995.In the Texas House, James Talarico said that parents who disagree with their own child over “gender identity” or homosexuality are engaged in child abuse. He voted against protecting parents from abuse liability for such and voted for an amendment in a bill that specifically would say that  “rejecting a child's gender identity or sexual orientation is abuse” and “should be treated as such under Texas law.” [See more on Talarico's real record here.]Lubbock Lights has learned, county paid two commissioners for same precinct job. Well, Lubbock Lights did learn it, as well as did I, and is writing about it. I mention a thing or two not in the Lights' story as of mid-day. Much more will be coming out I'm sure.

Welcome to Last Call, a look at the biggest stories Jim and Greg covered over the past week on the 3 Martini Lunch.This week, they discuss AI whistleblowers warning that the technology could kill all of us within a decade, Abdul El-Sayed saying your kids should be "our kids," James Talarico being very slippery with the truth, and Democratic Pennsylvania Sen. John Fetterman participating in the GOP midterm convention.First, they react to a former Anthropic employee saying Anthropic and OpenAI are not operating responsibly, that AI will soon be beyond their control, and that it will kill all of us within the next decade. Jim and Greg don't think humanity will be wiped out over the next 10 years but they are bothered by tech company leaders who don't seem to care if they lose control of this technology.Then, they rip Michigan Democratic U.S. Senate candidate Abdul El-Sayed for saying "If I had one political philosophy it's that I want us to build what we would build if we took seriously the idea that all of our kids were all of our kids." And of course he's using kids to further his radical, big government agenda.Next, they highlight the slick lying of Texas Democratic U.S. Senate candidate James Talarico. Now that he's running statewide, Talarico claims to have been a vocal critic of Pres. Biden's border policies at the time. But his argument implodes once it faces the truth.Finally, they discuss Sen. Fetterman taking part in the GOP midterm convention. Jim points out that Fetterman is hated on the left and too liberal for the right. So will Fetterman run for re-election and what will that look like?Please visit our great sponsors:ZocDocYour health matters and taking care of yourself shouldn't be complicated.
