Steve Oglesby is back on the show to deliver his straight-shooting take on the Texas Republican primary election just days away on Tuesday, March 3, 2026 – with early voting wrapping up today and turnout exploding statewide, especially among fired-up Republicans. The brutal U.S. Senate race is the main driver: incumbent Sen. John Cornyn locked in a dead-heat battle against Ken Paxton and Wesley Hunt, with polls showing a likely May 26 runoff and massive ad spending topping $110 million. Steve breaks down Cornyn's establishment edge and cash advantage vs. the raw MAGA energy fueling Paxton, the intense debates over character and loyalty, Trump's potential endorsement wildcard, and why this fight is mobilizing grassroots conservatives like never before in a midterm primary.That high grassroots turnout – surging well above 2022 levels with hundreds of thousands more Republican early votes already cast – is creating real momentum for outsiders. We spotlight Doc Pete "Doc" Chambers' bold challenge to Gov. Greg Abbott in the governor's primary. As a retired Green Beret, physician, and unapologetic critic of establishment politics (with endorsements like Gen. Flynn), Chambers is positioned to capitalize on this energized conservative wave. The same anti-establishment fire driving the Senate race could translate into stronger-than-expected support for Doc Pete if these motivated voters show up in force on Tuesday – turning a longshot bid into a serious protest vote or surprise performer!
