05-28-26 Part One - MAGA Triumph in Texas

Now, it's Red Eye Radio, Gary McNamara, and Eric Hurley

talk about everything from politics to social issues. And who's up the day?

“Whether you're up late or you're just starting your day?”

Welcome to the show, from the Relief Factor Studios. This is Red Eye Radio. All across America, we are Red Eye Radio. He is Eric Hurley and I'm Gary McNamara. We're looking at him in a good morning.

[MUSIC] We'll get to some analysis of the Texas primary here in just a moment. All right, but I saw this one. Because it all relates, it all relates, just how radical is the left? All right, now this is something new that I didn't know about.

Yeah, and thank you, Allen, for finding this. All right. Oregon Initiative Petition 28, unofficially reached the signature threshold last week to be on the November 2026 ballot. All right, I'm February 15, 2026, the Petition's official name became the people for

the elimination of animal cruelty exemptions, as KATU TV explained, IP28 quote would make it illegal to injure or kill animals and would effectively ban hunting, fishing, and the breeding of animals and of quote and the breeding of animals and the breeding of animals. All right, so there you go, I just thought we would start with that's really going to be interesting to see how that, because you know, let me put it this way.

“I guess we tend not to make absolute predictions, but I think that I'm not going out on a limb”

by saying what is it, the 13 counties in Oregon that we should just succeed and become part of Idaho? Yeah, they were going to call themselves greater Idaho. Yes, I believe that in those 13 counties, this proposition will be defeated, they're all glorious, I'm guessing, there you go, no fishing allowed, no hunting allowed, hey, Oregon,

good luck with the disease, yeah, you don't control the population of wildlife, you're in for it, and then they won't be able to find anybody to hunt after that, yeah, good luck for that, and no breeding of pets, no more breeding of dogs, all right, yeah, so you'd have to go somewhere else to get your dog, or you just have to move, for cats, you know,

I got to, wouldn't bother me, because I always find muts, yeah, you know, so, well, in cats,

and I know muts, you know, really are supposed to be dogs, but muts can be just whatever, I have a muts cat, yeah, and cats tend to be more cats tend to be feral than dogs, so that's good point, and their lawless, feral cats are lawless, don't tell you, we're outlaws, oh, yeah, yeah, so we're going to do what we're going to do, and you're not going to stop us with some stupid law, right, they're going to reproduce, yeah, their cats, you can't tell

them what to do, everybody knows that, we can not get to the point that we got to

“yesterday, was that in the second hour, whatever, I think it was the second of first hour,”

I thought it was the second hour, we got just, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, well, I'll

just say this, we all know you can't tell a cat what to do, no, so if a cat wants to mate with another cat, they're going to do it regardless of the law, so I just, I, I saw that, that's as far as I'm going with that bit by the way, okay, yeah, because the control room's sweating, so thanks, Ellen, for that story, I did not know that that was going on in Oregon, well, I guess the, you know, the big political news, and I guess it's not

really shocking, because when you, when you live here in the state of Texas, you know that Republicans have not viewed a corn in, as even though for the majority of the time he is voted, you know, with Trump, the things that he voted against Trump with, just, you know,

incumbent John Cornen and, you know, the, the media's just, there are two things that the left,

“leftist media went bonkers on yesterday, and first off, it's that, you know, this means a”

talerico is going to win, no, it doesn't, no, and, and the other thing yesterday was, we'll get to this here a little bit, is, well, Trump's, to the doctor again, he's to the doctor again, can you believe he's to the, that, the left went bonkers over that stop, you can't sell that, yeah, you can't sell the, well, you know, something, he's, he's been to the hospital three times in the last 13 months, well, so Biden went to the restroom three times an hour, by the way,

so of I, so of I, and so when you get to be 80 years old and you're president of the United States, or when you get to be 80 years old and you're retired, sometimes you go to the doctor quite a bit, you get exactly, but it's just, I mean, they were going, they were just all going bonkers on CNN and MSNBC, it was just, it was just like, guys, you're not, you can't sell this,

“no, and I think it was, I think it was Chuck Todd, well, he's very loud, so people believe that”

he's always busy, but it's just that he's loud and, and you see him a lot, but he's not very,

he's not really busy, and it's just like, he's, I don't Trump is at busy and Kamala Harris will be stronger on the border. Yeah, these are two things they're trying, they have tried to sell in the past. Yeah, I mean, I just, I was just like, I was laughing all day yesterday, it was just like, whoa, right, but Kenpaks doing, oh, by the way, because I voted yesterday, oh man, I had a bad ballot, did you? It took me like, I, well, you know, because I voted, then I put the

little sheet in, and just like our printer, the printer went on the fritz, you know, it went inside ways, they couldn't do it, so they had to, they had to reinsert the same, you know, they had reset it, but then inserted it again, and it printed over the barcode, which then you couldn't submit it. So I had, so I had a spoiled ballot, so I had to do, I had to vote all over again that happened to me a few months ago. And then I had to take that ballot,

yeah, and there's a whole process of you being there where you've got to take the, you know, the barcode, the actual sheet, which shows what it is. I had to sign off on a couple of things, and I had to, as the voter, take the, you know, put it in the envelope myself, I had to do it, yeah, and then I had to, you know, moisten, moisten it, and lock up the envelope, yeah, and then they look at her, did you look your finger, and then, yeah, because I,

I don't look strange, but I don't, I don't look strange or I don't, I don't look strange or I don't look, I looked it, it didn't matter, because I was at your age, you know what, I didn't write, you know, and I need extra, you know, immunity built in, so I need, well, you don't get a chance to lick things, for example, so what does it, no, we're not going to just go, just go for it, yeah, exactly, it's a Tuesday, just and party your butt off, and then that envelope went into

it, not looking things, and this envelope went into a bigger envelope, yeah, that I had

to sit there and watch as they, you know, they basically lock this thing in an envelope,

right, so my envelope was in a bigger, and look like a much more secure, you know, an envelope and close it, right, and I'm like, wow, and it took like, you know, 15, 20 minutes to get the whole thing done. Now, why was in there, and it was interesting, because I saw earlier on, you know, this is, when, when I woke up, so this is a couple of hours ago, I don't know whether it's still the case or, well, it is a case for early voting, early voting just

blue, the numbers off of previous runoffs like this, and so, by the way, it's a runoff, I said primary, but technically it's the runoff, the runoff election, you know, it was the fourth time I voted this year, yeah, four times, yeah, I was like, what, what, why voted twice today along? So, I, I went in, I suggested to drive in, but when I was in there, because I went and voted, so that's probably five minutes, and everything went pro, you know, went to

“Axe was probably 25 minutes, not one of the person came in, I think everybody early voted,”

not one Democrat came in, and I live in a Democrat, uh, precinct, not one Democrat was in there,

in the morning. Uh, we were about half full on each side when I went on yesterday, so,

you know what, but you know why that ballot thing happened, because I had a botch ballot thing

“happened a few months ago, you know why that happened to both of us, don't you?”

Jade Helm 15. Ah! Well, the funny thing is, when they said, okay, because after I completed the voting, they said, okay, you've got to come back here, and we've got to have you sign stuff, and you've got to make sure that, you know, you've got to put this in the envelope, and everyone, and watch a seal it, and everything else, and I walked, and I said, are there any hanging chads? Uh-huh, one of the

election workers, the poll workers went, I knew you were going to say that. Did it, uh,

did it kind of shredded or something, did it? No, it's, it, it, uh, deformed the corner. Okay. Yeah. It deformed the corner. Mine was just the misread. I didn't have to do the envelope thing.

“Yeah. Yeah. So they just gave me a new ballot. Yeah, the ballot. I just signed something”

showing that the old ballot was, you know, and they destroyed the old ballot in front of me. So the, so the ballot was or did something with it? Yeah, the, the ballot itself was destroyed. Yeah. So, yeah, uh, because, because when I put it in again, I put it in again, and it actually had printed part of it, but hadn't, and part of the barcode, then the, then it printed over that barcode, but it wasn't exactly lined up, which completely messed it up. Right. Yeah. But, and so

then I realized that, you know, the, when you first go and vote, if you do with that way, is,

I've done, I, it's been years. You know, when you go in and you, you know, vote on the little computer and you, and you put in a little sheet, that doesn't register anything, nothing registers until you go over and take that ballot and put it in. All right. The actual counter, and then it acted like, the longest it took me ever to vote was when I'm standing, and it's in the, this little small church, which happens to be right near City Hall where I live, and you're standing in there,

and it was a primary, and all of a sudden, all of the machines just went off. That didn't lose power to the building. They just turned off. They were the only things in the room that turned off. So they had to get officials to reset the machines, and I, I was there about 35, 40 minutes. Oh, waiting. Just waiting. My longest was 90 minutes. Yeah. Yeah. The, uh, 2020 election. Yeah. Yeah. I went to the, it was that early voting went to the school. The, the line was

out the door around the corner. I mean, it was the, the line, probably was, when I got in the line, it probably was 300, 400 people in a straight line. Yeah. Well, in a line that zigzagged all over the place down the longest line, I, I ever waited in was 2008. That was it, and it wasn't anywhere near the thing is too, because I monitored it. If I would have waited till election day, I mean, where were you votes right around the corner from the house? I mean, it's probably a two minute walk,

“and it's right, you know, it's just on the next block. And I actually, when I, I think I talked about it”

on the air, I said, I've got to go buy and see what it is when I would normally vote. There was nobody in line on election day. Everybody early voted that year. Yeah. Yeah. And so, but, uh, but here in the, you know, the, the, the media, look, Talla Rico's got major problems. Let me play this as part of, uh, Ken Paxton's, uh, victory speech and talking about Talla Rico. All right, here we go. My opponent is the most extreme radical, the Democrats have ever nominated. He's even running a vegan

campaign, whatever that is. He goes by a few names that you may all have heard of. Some people know him as tofu Talla Rico. Some people call him six gender Jimmy. I've even heard some people call him James Talla Rico and others refer to him simply as low tea Talla Rico. Okay. All right, and that was the, the commercial that we played last night. Look, when that, when that, when that pack came out, the, the, the, the pro-packston, uh, pack yesterday. I went, oh, okay, their internals

are showing. He's got this thing, uh, lined up. Yeah. And let me just see if I can find it here because we had played it yesterday. And, um, uh, the, this ad, which is, uh, again, in his, in his own words. And it's the problem that, that Talla Rico is going to have. It's the problem that the Democrats are going to have across the board because of so many radical candidates. And because of whatever

governor's race. And then, uh, what's going on with the, the mayor's race. You think, and, and people

“ask, you know, someone said, well, these are just mayor's of cities. I go, no, no, it's indicative”

of where the party's going on in national scale. Right. Yeah. You know, this, this is a whole thing, where's the party going? But here's the ad that Paxton's pack ran the day before. He wanted we played it yesterday. And all of this is, uh, uh, in Talla Rico's, uh, own words, what they use against him. The Democrats have a weird, a weird candidate. God is non-binary. There are, are many more than two biological fixes. In fact, there are six. It is now existential

that, uh, we try to reduce our meat consumption. The American flag is such a complicated symbol

for most of us, prophetic voices like Jesus have helped me reckon with my own whiteness, my own

masculinity. Our southern border should be like our front porch. There should be a giant welcome mat out front. No need to sit and cry over, you know, your whiteness or your masculinity. They're going to call me a radical leftist. Something that you love. It's not family or friends. I love, and just say this because it's on my mind, the trans children. The Democrats have a weird, a weird candidate.

Low tea, Talla Rico. Where are you? Low tea, Talla Rico. Uh, and, and that's going to be a problem. And he's out there already saying, you know, they're going to misrepresent what, no, they're not. They're not misrepresenting what you know, what you know, they're not, no, no, no. And, uh, and that's the only, that's the only defense

he really can have. But again, he didn't interview the other day where he was talking, you know,

“comparing the, you know, the, you know, from his reading of the Bible, that's why he approves abortion.”

Yeah, which you're not going to sell. Nope. Uh, this is what I radio brought to you by hot shot, secret. Hi, I'm Jen Lumis, a transport safety expert at JJ Keller. In order to manage speed, you need to understand the four factors involved in stopping a vehicle, perception distance. Is the distance of vehicle travels from the time you see a hazard until your brain recognizes it?

The perception time for an alert driver is approximately three-fourths of a second.

Reaction distance is the distance of vehicle travels from the time your brain tells your foot to move from the accelerator until your foot hits the brake pedal. The average driver has a reaction time of three-fourths of a second. Brake leg distance also needs to be taken into account. When operating a vehicle with air brakes, it takes about half a second for the mechanical operation to take place. Finally, braking distance is the distance. It takes a vehicle to stop once

the brakes are applied. Braking distance is affected by the weight, length, and speed of the vehicle, as well as road condition. This tip was brought to you by JJ Keller and associates. Visit us at JJ Keller.com. We'll be right back with more red eye radio with every currently yet in Gary McNamara. We are in a radio. He is our colony and I'm Gary McNamara. You know, I found this

interesting yesterday. I saw this from a political analyst looking at the voting numbers in the state of Texas. Paxton's margin in El Paso, Hidalgo Harris, and most of the real grand Valley are outrunning his overall statewide margin and are highly suggested a mega candidate retains high Latino support in line with the trends developing over the past six years. Well, there you have it. I mean, you saw a lot of those areas vote for Trump

and that's kind of where it goes. I mean, Trump put his name behind Paxton. You see this trend, and you see a trend where, especially with those living on the border, they're just absolutely sick and tired of the federal government, not only not doing anything during the Biden administration, but creating the problem itself to begin with. And this is why they voted Trump and it's likely why they're supporting Paxton.

Hey, I'm Chris Fanfleet. Go behind the scenes and beyond the headlines with the biggest

“names in pro wrestling and beyond. You could pop up in WWE tomorrow. Would Surrey be there?”

Or would Paige be there? Hey, 1 hundred percent. So when you're setting up Logan Paul to frog splash you through the announced table, it's going through your mind. This should make every headline in the world, but it makes sense. Right in jelly roll, we knew we had that kind of

follow and listen on your favorite platform.

“You're listening to Red Eye Radio from the Ray Leaf Factor Studio.”

Hey, and I'm Gary McNamara, along with Eric, Harley coming up. All right, the Texas runoffs are over looking forward to November. What are the, what are the issues? What will the public, what will the public see over the next five months or so? We'll get to that coming up in just a minute. Living with paying every day. It's not a good thing. It used to be my every day thing. In fact, thanks to relief factor. It is no longer my every day thing. George from Oregon, in fact,

same thing. And we want to share with you his relief factor stories, a hard working guy. He

spends 10 hours a day on a garbage truck tough job. And it was made even tougher at a point when he could not even bend his knee because it was so sore. And George writes us, he started taking relief factor. And here's a quote, "I can bend my knee again with very little pain." And quote, George, we're very happy about that. Thank you so much for writing in so many people, in fact, writing in and telling us how much they love relief factor. And I'm going to tell you right now.

Thanks to relief factor for providing some to me. For my honest opinion, my honest opinion is very simple. It's exactly what I've been telling you. And that is my lower back pain is not an everyday factor in my life. Thanks to relief factor. The three week quick start gets you started. It's just 1995. Go to relieffactor.com, relieffactor.com or call 8004 relief. That's 800 then number four relief. All right. So yesterday we were talking yesterday and I think last last week,

“but I think it was, I think it was yesterday. Yeah. Man, one show just melds into another doesn't it?”

Mm-hmm. But we were, you know, talking about, you know, the democrats and, you know, this upcoming race and other races, the messy race. Well, they're just going along with Trump. And I think the mistake that democrats make is that they believe that Republicans, especially the Republican primary voter, is tribal. Look, tribalism exists in both parties. You know, we've seen it. Mm-hmm. But the tribalism is much greater in the democratic party, who lives with the identity politics

across the board. We already know that. Right. And as we have said, the difference between the democrats and the republicans is the republicans are still arguing issues. The democrats haven't changed. They're in complete agreement on all the radical issues that they've been endorsing over the last decade. Yeah. That they've moved to where they are right now. Right. There is no, like somebody like Thetterman, you know, uh, uh, Thetterman, look at, I saw him seeing on the other

day. I think they were saying, he's down a hundred and eight points. He was like plus 68. Now he's down negative 40. Yeah. Right. It's like, sorry, you've got to agree with us on everything or you've got, if you're not an absolute radical, if you will not admit that a boy can be a woman and a boy should be in a woman's locker room and a boy should compete against a girl and a man can be a woman if the man says so, if you don't agree with that insanity, you're out. Pretty soon, they're going to say

“you need to attempt to transition. Remember, remember the whole thing where they said, well,”

you're a bigot, if you say you would never date someone who is transition. Um, yes, remember that.

Yes, remember that. Yes. Yes. Well, we're not that far from them saying, okay, we all need to transition. And if you don't, you're not one of us. Uh-huh. But Scott Jennings is on CNN and and brought that up because again, they were relating to a, uh, I believe a call or a Democrat, uh, uh, uh, caller here, uh, and it's important to know the difference. And he, and he, in, in a different way, says basically what we were saying last night. Where I go. Back from Detroit asks, why are Republicans

not allowed to support their constituents instead of Trump? Why do they allow Trump to bully them and to go along with him when they do not agree? Scott, let's have you take that one? On what, what issue? Uh, read again, why are Republicans not allowed to support their constituents instead of Trump? Why do they allow Trump to bully them and to go along with them when hit, if him, they do not agree. Obviously, talking about who they believe he should endorse

And his opinion matters a lot when Barack Obama was a president, when George W. Bush was a president,

when Bill Clinton was a president, all of these people had enormous influence over what the people in the party, uh, were going to do, top to bottom. Trump, I would argue of all of those people is probably the strongest party boss of the modern political era. If he wants you to be the

“nominee of your party, he can will it into existence. But you have to understand, his agenda”

is what Republican voters and personally Republican primary voters. It's what they've endorsed is what they voted for. They trust his judgment. And if he says, I think candidate A is better to enact that agenda than candidate B. They follow along, not because of its personality contest, because they voted for a particular agenda to this president and they want him to have the best possible team based on his judgment to enact that agenda. It hadn't been Kentucky with Massey.

That was the issue there. They thought he'd gotten off the team. It's what happened in Texas.

They believed that Paxton would fight harder for the agenda in court. And that's basically

the underlying issue in all these primaries. Yeah. Well, I think it's again, the attempt from Democrats is to say people are just, it's blind loyalty to Trump. Well, that the issues don't matter when the reason that the Republican party back in 2016 was so attracted to Trump, because as we pointed out, you know, it started with illegal immigration. Right. And then it moved on to other areas. But if there was ever a candidate that convinced a political party on specific issues that

the public was looking at and saying, you're not nobody. I don't care who you are, whether you're Republican or Democrat. Nobody is trying to solve the illegal immigration problem. We believe

it can be solved. Trump said he's going to do it. It's something that he has held as a passion

“at opinion for half a century. Yes. And so this is like he's waffling on on on that. And that's how”

he got in and then the economic issues. And then looking at, you know, the working guy, you know, deregulation of so many things that we've talked about the deregulation of the federal government the a smaller federal government, as we're seeing that he's actually done, these are issues. But I think what they're attempting to do, because when they say the guy said bully, nobody's bully, nobody's bully. They're in that. They're not one Republican who went to the

polyester day and said, all right. Well, I was going to vote for court in, but I've been bullied by the president. I mean, it's a stupid question. Yeah. But that's how they think. Yeah. I think that Trump's just a figure. That's a good part of a person. And there's no issues that surround him and look how bullying is working for them. The mob rules to just what we said a moment ago. If you're not on board 100% is a radical, you don't belong. Right. We'll come

after you. The mob will come after you. Silence is violence. Tell me where the bullying is. Here's what I'd say. You're absolutely right, Gary. It's not about this loyalty to Trump. But it is about a support of Trump's agenda. Right. Blind loyalty. Right. Blind loyalty.

“It is about the support for the agenda. If you want to call it a loyalty to the agenda. But it is”

about the support for him getting his things done, which is different than the blind loyalty that you have on the left, which is, which definitely is bullied. People are bullied into voting. How dare you remember Obama in 24, scolding black men who were going to vote for Trump. You know, you can't do that. This is, say what you will about what Trump posts and, you know, the whole Democrats and all of this over the last couple of days and everything that he posts,

the support by the rank and file. What we pointed out with people in these areas of Texas where Paxton is outperforming the rest of Texas, where he, you know, worries running. And it shows that there is great support for President Trump, especially when it comes to the border. There is great support for Trump's agenda. And that's the way it works. Nobody's being bullied into anything. How could you be bullied when nobody knows who you actually vote for?

Exactly. And some no idea. Yeah. But when it comes to the left, I believe there are people who feel like they've got to go along with, well, you know, I'm definitely not going to vote

in 2020 and 2024. It started, it changed in a big way in 2024, as we mentioned with some of those

border counties. Was it all but one border county, I think, in Texas, that voted for Trump. And that's huge. Well, when you, when you look at it, I use federalmen as the example. If the election were held today, federalmen would get smoked in Pennsylvania because

“they have the negatives of, of, of, of Democrats. Right. And, and so when you, and that's why”

said me a year before, if you want to run again, I'm now becoming a Republican. He may have a better chance. Oh, maybe. But when you look at federalmen, what is really the issue? I know when he looked at,

you know, when, when he looked at the, the last election, and, you know, he probably looks at it

and says, you know, Democrats were ridiculous. As you said, Democrats were ridiculous to say that the, you know, the, the, the, the border is secure. You know, it's stupid. Don't lie to the public. They're not stupid. But really, the thing that destroyed federalmen with Democrats, he's, he's, he's not a Jew hater. Right. Think about it. He's not a Jew hater. Right. He doesn't hate Jews. He thinks that we support a Western democracy over a terrorist

radical Islamic terrorist regime, theocracy in Iran. Yep. That's too radical for the Democrats. Yes. And so you talk about bullying with the Democrats are saying is if you're not an anti-Semi, if you don't cheerlead for the radical Islamic theocracy terrorist exporting country of a ran over a Western democracy of Israel, you cannot be in this party. Right. Period. Here. Yeah. We're not talking about,

we don't believe corner was, because if you look at it, you know, one of the things that's really ticked off, you know, you know, you know, a lot of people is the, the, the, the safe act. Again, you can't get to 60, you know, we understand all the arguments back and forth about getting rid of the filibuster and what would happen in that. But it's also the tone and the attitude that you have towards actually, you know, fighting Democrats. And we've talked about this before, you know,

when I look at at, at Coran and one of the problems I always had with him is he was one of the

Democrats that really didn't go after the heart of the Democrat narrative every single day. Right. Right. You know, he didn't go and say, look, this is what they're doing. And this is wrong. This is so evil. He didn't pound on it. He was viewed. And I know he voted with Trump the vast majority of the times. Oh, by the way, is a 287 still going to change to interstate 47. That's according

“came up. By the way, I think that actually hurt him with Laura. I think because remember primary”

voters are different than just regular Republicans at Don Bowen and primary. Right. Right. Right. Right. Right. You think that hurt him with primary voters? Because it was such a silly idea or a attempt over a kiss posterior attempt. Yes, over it. He was, he was, uh, yeah, he was trying to harm it. There's, there's this high way that's near me. It's it goes, but what it was it goes from goes all the way up to like, Wyoming or something. Doesn't it? Uh, yeah, we're just 287.

Uh, it's a go to all the way to Wyoming. I think it does because it goes, I know it goes through goes into Colorado. I think it does Colorado, Wyoming. Where where it passes, uh, how far should for me about five miles from me? It's a highway at that point. Yeah. It's actually, you know, you've gone, it looks like an interstate, but it's not. Yeah. My grandfather died on that highway at 287. September 1st, 1956. Yeah. But I'm in the truck.

They wish to make it, the, the, the, the, the plan I was to make it in interstate. Yeah. And, and so, and, and Coran had suggested, you know, that he'd like to call it, uh, you know,

“interstate 47 after Trump. Yeah. Right. Yeah. So, I, yeah. I think it may have come off as,”

there's a little too hard. It was like, there was one two weeks ago. So, we just did the right. Right. We are right. I radio. We'll be right back with more, right. I radio with every currently getting Gary McNamara. We are when I radio, uh, he is her. Coran, I'm Gary McNamara. By the way, in the state of Texas,

was basically two incumbents going head head and, uh, and yeah, he's out. So, Jasmine

“Crocket has gone, uh, and, and Christian metaphys, I mean, he's just radical. It's Al Green. Yeah. Yeah.”

Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. But he's a younger version. Again, they're looking for some. Yep. They're looking for someone who is who can sell the insane ideas, and so they're looking for new faces. Well, and it's exactly, and you look at an Al Green, who, you know, he's the one that's that screamed at Trump at the state of the Union address. Yeah. Uh, it's like, okay, we need a new face.

Well, and it's, it's, uh, exactly what David Hogs said, right? We need younger radicals. Yet,

he got booted from the DNC for saying that. Now, for the our news is brought to you by house products, visit house products.com. This is Red Eye Radio on Westwood One. Now, it's Red Eye Radio, Gary McNamara, and Eric Hurley, talk about everything from politics to social issues, and news of the day, whether you're up late or you're just starting your day. Welcome to the show from the relief

vector studios, this is Red Eye Radio. All across America, we are Red Eye Radio, and he is Eric Hurley, and I'm Gary McNamara, who has come in good morning. All right, so, uh, just, so everybody knows, I mean, probably most of the country doesn't care about the attorney general's race, in, uh, in the state of Texas, but Chip Roy did lose to, uh, and, and, and Trump did not endorse anyone in that one, but he did lose to mega maze Middleton. Yeah, that was the end of the

“ran constantly. Yeah, so, uh, here's the thing, Mr. Middleton assumed the, the mega crown.”

Well, yeah, uh, mega maze. I'll say this just anecdotal evidence here, though, but early on, I started getting Middleton mailers. Oh, yeah. I mean, it seemed like I was getting once one per day, but it was probably, uh, more accurately, at least one a week, and I don't recall getting any from Chip Roy's campaign. That's a may, maybe, if, you know, it could have been one of the days where my wife got it out of the mail, we take the, the, all the political maillers they go into the,

my wife actually made the joke that one of the first Middleton, uh, campaign maillers came out, she goes, this looks like, and I think it was in January, she said, this looks like a late, crisp, family Christmas card, but because you know, that picture was failing in that, everything

got, so it's like, okay, here's what's happened in the past year, here's what our family has done,

we've gone mega, but it's, no, that's a, I didn't see one from Chip Roy, personally, I do not remember getting one from Chip Roy, yeah, and I'm trying to think if I remember a TV commercial from Chip Roy, don't, that's a good point too. Now, don't remember seeing one. But here's the point, maybe I did, and it's just the fact that it was early on, you know, we, I, I agree with you, one of the first maillers I got, one of the first commercials that I saw for anybody running,

you know, in in Texas, uh, on the Republican side was the magma maize Middleton and that was all over the place, right, and it was the deep voice when I'm, I'm just trying to impersonate the deep voice, not as deep voice as our deep voice guy, I don't think there is one, but still it was,

“it was mega maize Middleton, you know, and it was, you, you remember that, yeah, yeah, yeah, and,”

and so, but if you look at it, Chip Roy did better in losing the John Cornin, by almost nine or ten points, yeah. So, but what is this all come down to? You know, when we look at it now, I mean, California's primary next week, I did see, let me just get very quickly here,

Two new, uh, let me see, this is from, uh, Yahoo politics, uh, USA today network, this comes from. Okay.

“Two new California gubernatorial polls show a volatile June primary with just one week until election”

day, the echelon, uh, insights survey released Friday shows Republican Steve Hilton, the poll sponsor, leading the field with 25% of likely voters, our lead is growing, Hilton wrote in a post on X, now's the time to come together and deliver the strongest Republican finish. Now, you could sit there and say, yeah, but he did the poll. Well, I mean, you would have to believe that echelon insights survey were then bribed to do it in his favor and go ahead. I mean, we, you could, you can

make that case, but in a separate global strategy groups, follow up poll sponsored by Tom Steyer's campaign and release the same day, Hilton also leads with 22% of likely voters. Steyer and Bashara are close behind, tied at 19%, uh, Sheriff Bianco holds 12% of voters. The thing is, if Hilton is one of the top two, that's a good thing overall. I mean, for, because this is an umbrella statement, I'm going to make, because we could, and I'm sure we'll

get into each individual race at some time down the line. Sure. And we're really not going to

know where all of this is going. As we've always said, in most of these Senate races,

probably till September or October. Right. That's when people really start paying attention. Yeah, to what's, you know, what's, what's going on right now, what you're seeing are the most

“loyal Republicans and the most loyal Democrats that have been voting. That's what you get in”

the primary. But the entire umbrella, in the entire umbrella, what's going to happen, I want Hilton to be running. I want there to be news items every day about Hilton and Bashara or Steyer, whoever, you know, whoever, you know, whether they come in one or two or two,

you know, whatever order if the top two is Hilton or Bashara and Steyer can only be

two of the three, if Hilton's in there, he's going to be interviewed all the time. If there are no, if there are no Republicans in there, if it's Bashara and Steyer, well, you lose a lot of, because Hilton will be interviewed everywhere. Yeah. He's willing, and he's willing to be interviewed everywhere. Yeah. But, and so right now, it looks like he will be in the top two. And so if he is, I look at the umbrella of the midterms overall. And this is an umbrella,

I'm including everything all together. You know, what we know where is the momentum? The problem with Republicans as we've stated it right now is prices. The public blames them for the prices. The economic numbers are not good. But, in almost every single poll, I've seen, and this is the one thing I think Aryan and CNN is like unbelievable. People do not look at the Democrats as the answer. Right. And so, and again, if a deal is done, whether it's a good deal

or bad deal. All right. This is not about the deal we make with Iran. That's another topic, which I'm sure. Yeah. You know, we'll cover that. But if gas prices come down drastically, that could be a huge, that could be a huge boost for the Republicans. Yeah. Now, the problem with the Democrats is every other is every issue. Every issue. The public doesn't agree

“with them on the major issues. And that's why we stated if you take Trump's name out of it,”

or any Republican and just put down the issues. Where do you stand on the issues? The Republican Party wins in a landslide. Yeah. And so, what you have here, again, if the Republicans can articulate their positions, but more importantly, as it seems like, especially with Tallarico in Texas, if you can simply run the ads with them in their own words. And you, you demonize the demonic stand that they, that they hold on the issues. Yeah.

Okay. To say that. You demonize the, it's okay. If you demonize the demonic stands that they

just the politicians that will be getting all the press of what they're saying in their own words,

you will be hearing from, you know, let's say, Stire or Basharim Basharim is horrible. But Hilton will be articulating for that governor, the governor's race. The LA race is going to get plenty of publicity in the Senate. I can see the Democrats putting the general ad. My god, what the hell's going on? A Nazi, a communist, and, uh, anti-tallarico, by the way, if you say Nazi and communist, those labels are great. The low-tea people would ask,

“why is that? All you have to do is play him in his own words. You play Tallarico in his own words.”

Over and over and over again on the radical positions that they hold. And they really can't deny them

because they're going to be doing friendly. The, the problem is with somebody like a Tallarico,

or a, a platter in, in Maine, is even the friendlies are going to ask them questions when they say that they're longstanding positions that they hold and what the Republicans are accusing them of is not true. Right. Because the left's going to want to know why you're saying it's not true. Because we want to hold those positions. Right. You know, we, we want you to say, we, we just don't want you to say that the, you know, that in my reading of the Bible,

“abortion is okay, you know, they want you to come out and say, Jesus was pro abortion. That's what”

the left wants. Yeah. Right. And so if you start backing off as come, come on here. So it was one of the problems. She couldn't do an interview. She couldn't do an interview with anybody. She could not do a long form interview with anyone. And when you see, for example, you know, we, we played the audio of a styrofoam in California on with Jennifer Welch. What a nutcase. No, she, as I'm telling you. And, you know, when he started talking about the radical transgender movement,

it was horrible. It was absolutely horrible. And so the Republicans have a great chance of,

“I believe, holding the Senate and maybe even holding the House. If gas prices come down,”

remember, prices will moderate because the President's tariffs and wind July, by July, I think it's mid June. Is it mid June? I forgot the, yeah, it's coming up here. Right. And, and so the, even the tariffs that are on now are as a lot less being taken out of the economy than was before. Right. Yeah. And so you get gas prices down, you get prices to moderate. And if the Republicans can successfully in a truthful way demonize the radical Democrats and where

they are. And it's not hard. They're running a Nazi for Senate. But Gary, he says he's not a Nazi. He's, he's, he's, he's not a Nazi. Okay. He's gone from Naziism to communism. He's just, he's, he's, he's a communist. He's, he's, he's, he's pinballing back. Am I Hitler? Am I Stalin? Am I Hitler? Am I Stalin? I mean, by the way, I'm, I'm, I'm having fun with that, but all seriousness, you could use that in a political ad. Yeah. This guy can't decide. Okay.

It's July 24th. Okay. So it goes basically the, at 12 o'clock, 12 o'clock, a, um,

Eastern daylight time on July 24th is when the 150 day section 1222 global tariff expires. Right. So if you get, if gas prices moderated, they, if there is some kind of deal, assuming that the straightforward moves is straightened, uh, it is, uh, then you, you have a lot of things that would moderate between essentially the beginning of August, you got about 90 days for prices to moderate, which would happen if those things are in place.

buried by the election races. The public is focused on what he is doing. He's all over social media.

“And the one thing is, you now have the Democrats that believe they've got younger people that”

can sell the insane ideas, and the radical left does not want them to back off during campaign time, and that's a problem that they have. Right. That was a problem for Kamala Harris. Right. She could answer it. You know, Teala recalls already out there saying they're playing quotes from me that they're taking out a context. Oh, they're not. No, no, no. No, they're not, right at all. Nope. And that's, that's the, well, to, to give you an example, let me just, uh, I want to find the,

I've got this, uh, that's so many windows open here. This is, uh, John Halman on, um, MS now, and this was beginning to march when Teala Rico beat Jasmine Crockett. This is on the most liberal

“network. Okay. From a liberal. All right. Here we go. But look, I think show the key thing here is that”

James Teal Rico was cast is cat was cast and increasingly is still his cast. They're saying increasingly, but still his cast is moderate. There is nothing, he's not a moderate. He's a, he's a,

he's a, he, he in Jasmine Crockett, basically the same positions on almost every issue.

He's a populist. He's progressive. He's pretty far to the left on a lot of issues. There you go. Yeah. We know that. Yep. Even they, they know it, but they can't, that's the problem. It's very tough for the Democrats to pretend to be moderates because the radical left doesn't want it. Yeah. They want you to promote what you actually are. No, this has been a conundrum for them

“for quite some time. And it was weird because when Joe dropped out and then conundra is, you know,”

basically anointed, what did she try to do? She tried to be born like Trump immediately. Of course,

she got backlash from her own side, how dare you, but they believe they have to in order and you do,

you're going to have to appeal to independence and how do you appeal to independence when you're that radical and you refuse to change. In fact, you're going, you're going further in a radical direction. If, if you do not support our, our ways, you're a bigot, right, you're a racist. Exactly. We are right, I radio. This morning's USDA Farm Report is brought to you by house products, tested, trusted, guaranteed since 1920. Prop progress for US court as of the day before Memorial Day

shows 86% of the U.S. intended court acreage planted on that date. That remains ahead of the five year average, which is 83% and exactly the same as the pace a year ago on May 24th. With U.S. the A.B. orologist Brad Rippie doting progress in northern states, where drag has occurred in recent days, facilitating a faster planting pace. The big states that really benefited from that were Michigan, North Dakota and Wisconsin all planting anywhere from 20 to 28% of their

corn acreage just during the week. Michigan, for example, a big jump from 47 to 75% of the corn planted and that takes Michigan ahead of its five year average of 73% North Dakota is 80% planted. Now also ahead of its five year average of 62% and Wisconsin, what their big jump from 62 to 82% planted also ahead of their five year average of 79%.

Coming up more with Gary McNamara and Eric Carley, it's Red Eye Radio. We're Red Eye Radio. He is our Crony and I'm Gary McNamara. Welcome in good morning. I saw this and I went, I don't buy it. I saw this. Don't even know who this person is who posted this. Let me just see here. Yeah. Let me see. Okay, incoming national politics fellow with the New York Times, bailis Wagner. Okay. I don't buy it.

Modern Republicans in Texas are going through it tonight. A Texas GOP staff for Texas me as a moderate Republican. I have no place in this party anymore.

That's ridiculous. I don't buy it. That's a big, I don't buy it either.

“They're big. Why? Because the Republican party has gone more left over the last 10 years.”

That's it. If you're already a moderate, you know, this movement of the party that we have watched in recent years, further and further to the left, you're already a moderate. There's no place in the party for me. I don't buy it. Yeah, I don't buy it. Yeah, it sounds like somebody in accordance camp on the phone whining about something, you know, that they lost. Catch Rennai radio live every night on the Rennai radio app available in the app store.

Rennai radio. And we are Rennai radio. He is there, Crony and I'm Gary McNamara. You know, we had, we had talked about earlier about how Paxton was doing with Hispanics.

“New York Times analysis from a few hours ago.”

Paxton is currently doing better with Hispanics than white voters. Wow. According to

New York Times estimates. Wow. Wow. Paxton was with mostly with white voters plus 26 percent

Hispanic voters plus 27. Wow. Interesting. So yeah, we had, we had talked about that earlier. Yeah. But I just, you know, it's, again, I don't think it's, and just so people know, in the state of Texas, you know, for example, you can be an independent and vote in a primary. You can only vote for one side though. So you have people that move around that may vote in a Republican part primary, Democrats could vote in a Republican primary. It was a whole thing that,

well, Paxton got in because the Democrats won him in. That's not true.

Yeah, I don't, I don't see that. Yeah. Because if, if anyone is to think that in Texas as a Democrat, then you underestimate the lack of confidence in John Corne.

“Because that's the only way you can put it. If, you know, thinking that, well, John Corne”

was a, you know, a shoe win and, and, and, and, and, and, and Paxton's going to have to, you know, work to be the Democrat. But the fact of the matter is is that I do believe that the president, his endorsement was helpful. But I think it, it gets back to who's going to actually get in there and fight who's actually going to get in there and, and do the work, and which would be part of the agenda of the president. But again, the majority of the time, Corne and vote for, with the president,

but the times that he didn't, as you mentioned earlier, that's what hurt him. You know, we, we had talked about the one New York Times writer that said, I talked to a, you know, moderate GOP Republican in Texas who said, I can no longer support this party. It's either far left or far right. There's no room for a moderate Republican. And we, we called BS on that one. Yeah. And you, as you said, he goes, must be a disgruntled Corne in person. Yeah.

Uh, you know, this goes back. And again, I'm, I'm, I'm independent. I vote in the Republican primary yesterday, but, uh, I've been independent for a significant period of time now, but, uh, and so when, uh, you know, anybody has ever called me or you were Rino, we said, well, if we were a Republican, you'd be absolutely right. We are Rino. We are way more conservative than the direction of the Republican party, the Republican party is becoming a populist, moderate party.

Right. And the Democratic party is becoming a far left insane radical communist. We can now add communist Nazi party. Yeah. Yeah. Thank you, Platter. We appreciate that. I mean, yeah, Community, Community. Right. He doesn't know. Am I Stalin? Am I Hitler? Am I Stalin? Is the Community.

party, especially on fiscal issues. Uh, in, in some areas, this Republican party isn't even

recognizable. Right. No, when it comes to, for example, debt used to be huge for them. They've completely just said the heck with the, with the heck with the debt. I know that, you know, in the beginning of the, uh, the, the, the term with the Elon Musk and everything else, there was a great big promotion on it. Uh, we called him out on it. We were criticized for that, but we ended up being right. Uh, they weren't going to, they weren't going to take two trillion dollars off the budget.

They weren't going to take 100 trillion off the budget. In fact, uh, it'll be interesting now, once the tax refunds exclude me the, the tariff refunds have to be paid with the interest on that, what will be the debt I heard last. I heard in the last month, it went through the roof. Yeah, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the monthly debt figure. So, um, um, you know, there, you know, and, and, but that's where that's where they are. You know, if you look at it,

I mean, how many times, if you're willing to long time listen to show on certain issues, did you and I look at one time and remember, we said, don't even remember what the issue was and we said,

“is there a conservative left in Congress? Right. Is there a fiscal conservative left?”

Yeah. You know, it just, it's, they seem to have completely disappeared. Now, we understand why the Republican Party has become more of a populist moderate party. It's because the public has. Yeah. Right. You know, we saw it. I think one of the beginnings, if you want

to look at one of the benchmarks, it was, uh, when, uh, when Trump, uh, in his first year,

so we go all the way back to, you know, uh, 2017 when it was, let's get rid of Obamacare. Yeah. And it was like, no, we're not going to get rid of Obamacare. We're just going to get rid of the, uh, the, the, the, the mandates, the fine. Right. But Republicans like Obamacare, they just don't wish to pay for it. And so boom, we knew at that point that that was, I think, not that it was and slowly happening, but to us, that was the initial benchmark of the Republicans abandoned, abandoning

fiscal conservatory. Because it was somewhat of a cliff event when you talk about, let's keep the benefits and let's eliminate the payment mechanism. Right. That's, that's exactly what Democrats

“try and do all the time. And, and I think one of the perfect examples, as we have talked about the,”

the, the, the populist moderation of, of the, the, the party, I think a perfect example of that of somebody who was perceived as a conservative, and he may be in cultural and particular cultural issues on fiscal economics is almost where the Democrats stood a few years ago, and that would be Josh Holley. Yeah. And you look at him. You see, he's a great. Look, look at him up there, going after that liberal. Yeah. But he's the one that said that credit card rate should be 10%,

he's the one that's demonizing industry on a consistent basis. Right. It's, it's really become his go to. Yeah. And, and, and that would be the, you know, one of the examples that we have, the other example, when we talked about this last night, was Hall Friendly Trump has gotten with Union leadership and the two Union proposals that the administration has backed that no Republican president would have backed, even, you know, 10 years, you know, 10, 12 years ago. Yeah. When it comes

to negotiations, when it comes to, in fact, the one bill, as a Wall Street Journal points out, takes away the ability of the of the union to act, you know, the union and their workers to approve negotiations and take it to binding arbitration for new unions at new companies, which is just completely and totally unacceptable. And so, you know, you look at, you know, you look at those tariffs, tariffs used to be the domain of the Democrats 15 years ago. Yeah.

Now it's solid Republican belief. You, you can, we can debate it back and forth, what's good, what's bad. We're just telling you where the political party stood on these particular issues, just a little while ago. So while the Republican party has become more populist moderate, you had the Democratic party that's just gone insane left. And as we have said, you know, if there, if there was a, if there was a, if there was a, the same libertarian party out there,

you know, we've always talked about the third, we need a third party. We need a third party. We need a

“third party. Well, they tried, what was that name of the, what was that party again?”

The, no can do party. The no labels. The no labels party. Remember that? Yeah.

All right. We need a conviction party. Remember, remember that, that, when they all sat and said,

okay, we need to have a meeting here. All right, let's bring the, they're meeting to order.

“Who are you to say, bring the meeting to order? You can't bring it. How do we get our leaders in there?”

We don't know. Well, how do we figure out how to get our leaders? Well, we need to come up with the plan. No, if we come up with a plan, then it means somebody makes a decision. And it's all not all inclusive. Yeah. And, and that was, that was an O labels party where they said, well, we really, you know, we are a party that isn't, my God, it was the three bears. It was the porridge party.

You know, we don't like it too hot. We don't like it too cold. We like it just in the middle.

Okay. Fine. Stop the rhetoric. Where do you stand on the issues? We're not going to tell you where we stand on the issues. Because if we tell you where we stand on the issues, we could alienate some people. We just want everybody together. And we said, this is going to fail. Big time. And as we know, it failed. Big time. Well, remember how they screamed transparency. Yet they didn't want to tell anybody where they stood on the issues. Yeah. And they didn't want

to reveal anything going on in their meetings. I mean, it was, it was a joke. And we just said, well, that's not where the party is. You know, the people that are feeling lost politically in the United States are really true conservatives. Yeah. But the Republican party meets a ton of their needs

“and wants the Democratic party doesn't meet any of their needs. And that's why conservatives”

will still stay with the Republican party. Right. Look, we have great concerns with the Republican party. Yeah. You know, going back to that whoever commented, you know, whoever that source was saying, well, there are no, there's no place in Texas for a moderate, it's far left or far right. Well, sorry. The fact of the matter is the parties become more moderate. And there is an effort to bring the party back to the right.

And for good reason, here's the thing, too, where I would question a comment like that,

man, I would have so many questions that wouldn't be just one. Well, tell me what far right is because if you say far right, some people, you know, on the left, there's an extreme, all right, let's stop that. If you're somebody and according to the story, it is who has been a Republican, tell me what too far right is on the issues. Tell me what to do. No, that's it, that's a, that's a, no, don't say conservative to far right. Yeah, because that's the way they phrase.

Right. What is, what is far right? Who is far right? Right. Right. Now, when the media, if you, if you look at it, the media would look at it and go, the far right commentators like Tucker Carlson and Candice Owen. Right. Well, they're not a part of the Republican party anymore. No, they're not a part of the mainstream of the Republican party. No, they've been suffered. They've been severed and a lot of it has to do with their anti-Semitism and they're just all around general

cooginess. Yes. And it's like, no, they're not, they're not part of the mainstream. So that's a great point. Who is the far right of the Republican party? And if you're a person making that, whoever that

“person is making that comment, what is too far right for you on the issues? What is too far right?”

In fact, it's because because what you're telling me is that you're, you're not trying to be a moderate Republican. You're trying to be a moderate because your concern is there are too many issues where the far right doesn't agree with you. Well, what would that be? Well, maybe this is what he's, maybe this is what he's saying, is that since the Democrats now have a common Nazi, that, you know, that can be viewed as very, very far right. And so he's saying that the Democrats are going to

far right and the Republicans are going to far left. Well, you know, yeah, God, this is fun. Well, she's we're, we are doomed. If you're, if you're west of the east side and north of the south side, then someone asks you for directions, no, but you make a good point. Because the far right used to be perceived as, you know, Nazis, you know, Trump's a Nazi, Trump's a fascist,

when our parents were talking, if you were going to the far east, that meant that meant you were

going to, you know, certain part of Asia, right, the far east. Well, at some point, you've gotten too far, you end up back in the west. Just say now, it means Vermont. It means, it means New York City,

“yeah, yeah, it's, you know, again, what, what, how do you define it? How do you define too far right?”

“We are when I renew, he's our colony, and I'm hearing Mac Nemera. You know, I saw yesterday”

Republican, the strategist, Belika Abdul. This was on NBC News, and he said Trump didn't endorse

Paxton because of loyalty. He endorsed it because the base wanted it. That's a great point. You know, that's a solid point. And there was that. There was a lot of chatter around Paxton from the base. That's a really great point. This is Red Eye Radio on Westwood 1. Hello, America, Mark Levin here. Many people seem to be incubating a rage looking for somewhere to go.
