"TEXAS LUNATIC Abbott's Stupidity Sends Shockwaves Through Texas"

Am posting the video for the content, but just *love* the title, if only.

The video opens with a clip with the face of a rabid talk show wingnut, Joe "Pags" PAGLIARULO. A very brief sampling of his wingnut b.s. is more than enough. He's got the "tough guy" bluster, prides himself on his Italian heritage, which is only the *worst* part of Italian - i.e., of the MUSOLINNI variety. Like INGRAHAM, he's a cancer survivor and adopted a kid, and also shares her wingnut logorrhea.

Born in Amityville, New York, Pagliarulo later lived in nearby Copiague, moved to Lake Worth, Florida at age seven, and graduated from Santaluces Community High School.[2][3] By 1988, Pagliarulo became a store president with Domino's Pizza.[2] ....

In 2005, Pagliarulo transitioned to talk radio and began his daily talk show that was first heard on iHeartMedia's flagship talk radio station WOAI 1200 in San Antonio, Texas as well as KPRC-Houston, KEX-Portland, KHOW-Denver, and KTLK-Minneapolis. After Andy Dean's departure from America Now in 2014, Pagliarulo's daily show titled The Joe Pags Show was broadcast to the 130 America Now affiliates for almost a year until a full-time replacement host was selected. After the America Now fill-in period ended, Pagliarulo's show began its own syndication through Compass Media Networks, and was heard on over 90 stations as of May 2017.[6] His daily show is broadcast live from 6-9 PM EST and on tape delay in some of his syndicated markets.[5] He also hosted a weekend nationally syndicated radio talk show through Premiere Networks titled The Weekend with Joe Pags[7][8] which he stepped down from in 2022.[9]

Pagliarulo has made many appearances on Fox News, CNN, and MSNBC and previously served as a long-time frequent fill-in for Glenn Beck on Beck's television and radio programs. He has won multiple broadcasting awards from the Associated Press,[10] and his show is listed in the top 25 of Talkers Magazine's "Heavy Hundred"[11][12] and has been named by Newsmax as one of the most influential talk shows in the country.[5][13] ....

On September 2, 2016, Pagliarulo reported that his daughter Gabriella (aka Gabby) had been missing since August 31.[16][17] His request for help was spread across news and social media sites including Facebook and Twitter, and she was recovered unhurt the next day in Mexico accompanied by a 29-year-old male named Christopher Lee Fretwell, who was arrested on multiple charges.[18][19] Pagliarulo promised on-air to assist with other missing and exploited persons, and has since given multiple missing person reports and alerts with the assistance of various missing person agencies.[citation needed]
