| 0:00.0 | Hello everybody. I'm John Fawcett with this Great America Show Midday Update for Monday, |
| 0:04.1 | December 8th. Happy Monday, folks. I hope you all had a great weekend. Your weeks are off to a |
| 0:08.9 | great start. Everyone's favorite Marxist Dem from Texas, Democrat, Marxist Dem, I should say, |
| 0:16.8 | Congresswoman Jasmine Crockett. She announced Monday and filed paperwork to run for the Democrat |
| 0:23.8 | primary for the U.S. Senate in Texas. That's right, folks. As the Great Roger Stone says, if she had |
| 0:30.8 | an IQ any lower, you'd have to water her like a plant, thinks that she's going to be the next senator, which I guess it's very well |
| 0:39.3 | possible for the Democrat process. |
| 0:41.3 | I don't think she has any chance of beating a Republican. |

| 1:29.2 | making her a clear favorite in the Democratic Party. But recent polling data shows Paxton, |
| 1:34.7 | that's Ken Paxton, the current Attorney General, outperforming any potential Democratic opponents, |
| 1:40.0 | including Crockett in the Red State of Texas. Polling also shows Corman, Wesley Hunt, locked in a three-way tight primary race. |
| 1:49.4 | 26% Cornyn, 25% Paxton, 24% for Wesley Hunt. |
| 1:55.2 | We wish Ms. Crockett the best of luck, and hopefully she loses. |
