| 0:00.0 | I'm thrilled today to be joined by state representative Gloria Johnson, who is running against |
| 0:08.7 | Marsha Blackburn from the great state of Tennessee for the United States Senate seat. |
| 0:15.1 | Gloria Johnson is from eastern Tennessee, from the city of Knoxville. |
| 0:21.3 | It represents that area in the state legislature. |
| 0:24.3 | We're thrilled to have her with us today on the warning as we continue to bring unfiltered |
| 0:30.9 | some of the leading Democrats in the country who, unfortunately, you're not going to see much on the |
