00:00:00.000 Hello, everybody. I'm John Fawcett with this Great America Show midday update for Tuesday, March 24th.
00:00:04.980 Some big news out of the Senate last night. Let's take a listen to just what happened.
00:00:10.160 On this vote, the ayes are 54, the nays are 45.
00:00:13.420 The nomination of Mark Wayne Mullen of Oklahoma to be Secretary of Homeland Security is confirmed.
00:00:17.540 under the previous order the motion to reconsider is considered made late upon the table the
00:00:31.140 president will be immediately notified of the senate's action and there you have it senator
00:00:34.880 former senator i should say mark wayne mullin confirmed as the next department of homeland
00:00:39.360 security secretary senator ran paul voting once again no on that monday vote ran paul has voted
00:00:45.460 no in every procedural vote leading up to monday's final floor vote democrat senator john
00:00:50.900 fetterman and martin heinrich voting yes democrat senator ruben gallego not voting at all the
00:00:57.120 senators erupted in cheers after mark wayne mullen was confirmed it seems rand paul's got to get his
00:01:01.540 act together and either stopped acting like a child because he's upset that he got beat up by
00:01:06.080 his neighbor and mark wayne mullen questioned it or he's got to become a democrat he's got to choose
00:01:11.680 what side he wants to be on because this whole little rhino thing i don't think is working out
00:01:15.880 too well speaking of congress the democrats are hopeful and wishful that they're going to retake
00:01:20.760 the house of representatives in the 2026 midterms i beg to disagree but should they
00:01:25.460 maxine waters is demanding that she resume her position as chair of financial services committee
00:01:31.120 considering the fact that she's 87 years old maxine waters should probably retire what does
00:01:37.140 she bring to the table that congress can't do without now both parties obviously have this
00:01:41.280 problem they have members of Congress who are literally dying in office because they refuse
00:01:45.740 to give up their seats it's absolutely a joke and it makes you wonder why does Maxine Waters
00:01:50.840 care so much about getting back on financial services and running the joint I think I think
00:01:55.980 we've sort of figured it out by now just by looking at some of her friends stock trading
00:02:00.500 perhaps Nancy Pelosi's and over on the Senate side Marx's damn Senator Chuck Schumer his Trump
00:02:06.420 derangement syndrome is absolutely, I don't even, I'm at a loss of words for how bad it
00:02:11.060 is, embarrassing himself on national television today after refusing again and again to admit
00:02:17.080 a simple truth that weakening the world's leading state sponsor of terrorism is a good
00:02:22.480 thing.
00:02:23.640 And if it wasn't a conservative who called them out, it's now MS Now's own Joe Scarborough.
00:02:28.780 It was such an embarrassment and it was so bad for Chuck Schumer that Scarborough was
00:02:33.000 forced to stop schumer mid-ramble and demand a straight answer take a listen is it a good thing
00:02:39.860 that that iran i think you would agree with me epicenter of terrorism in the world since 1979
00:02:45.060 is it good that their military infrastructure is being degraded to the degree that it is yes or no
00:02:51.040 it's it's you can't because it's a premature question what is going to happen in the next
00:02:54.900 several months no no i can ask that question i said about right no no no i can't so you have
00:02:59.860 a military side and i can show you my chart but i i think a third away you have the military side
00:03:05.700 you have the political side i'm simply asking on the military side is it good regardless of whether
00:03:12.480 we agree with going in or not is it good that iran's military infrastructure has been seriously
00:03:18.920 and again i have to tell you joe first um uh you can't what's going to happen three months from now
00:03:26.200 is it worth it what's going to happen will the world economy collapse will something happen even
00:03:32.380 worse will the whole energy infrastructure of the world go up in smoke so you have to when they do
00:03:39.440 it without planning when they do it without understanding where they're going senator
00:03:44.320 where they're going i don't think it's fair it's a trick question because it is let me answer the
00:03:49.620 question for everybody in america the answer yes it's good that the terrorist regime uh their
00:03:56.080 military uh has been and capabilities have been degraded radically imagine that schumer can't
00:04:03.920 admit the simple fact that leveling iran's nuclear program is a good thing for the rest of the world
00:04:09.340 and people vote for that guy think about that for a second president trump said oil prices are set
00:04:14.800 to come down very rapidly and very soon because a deal is very near take a listen the price of oil
00:04:21.840 will drop like a rock as soon as a deal is done i guess it already is today no we have a very
00:04:27.360 serious chance of making a deal that doesn't guarantee anything i'm not guaranteeing anything
00:04:31.820 i'm not going to come out here a week or two weeks and have you all say oh you said i didn't
00:04:37.140 say anything all i'm saying is we are in the throes of a real possibility of making a deal
00:04:43.660 And I think if I were a betting man, I'd bet for it.
00:04:47.220 But again, I'm not guaranteeing anything.
00:04:49.620 They want to make a deal very badly.
00:04:51.640 Sometimes I question if the Democrats really care about the price of oil coming down.
00:04:55.420 I think they'd rather watch the American people suffer
00:04:57.500 so they can run on the talking point that President Trump raised the price of fuel.
