You nailed the words right out of my mouth

This one was heard on Fox and Friends, January 8, by one of the hosts talking about Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin and not telling anyone about his hospitalization. This is a mashup of “nailed it” (described a situation or problem exactly) and “take the words right out of (one’s) mouth” (to unknowingly say what someone else was thinking or about to say). A big thank you to John Hatfield for hearing this one (Fox was the only channel on his cruise ship) and sending it in!
