00:00:00.000 Hello everybody, this is the Great America Show midday update for Friday, May 10th.
00:00:05.080 House Speaker Mike Johnson vowing to protect Junkyard Jackal Special Counsel Jack Smith
00:00:09.460 at all costs, literally just hours after the Marxist Dems saved him from a motion of vacate.
00:00:16.300 Johnson spoke to Politico this week and was asked about defunding Jack Smith's Special
00:00:20.260 Counsel position.
00:00:21.540 Johnson told Politico, quote, that's not something you wave a wand and just eliminate
00:00:25.720 the Special Counsel as a provision.
00:00:27.200 There's a necessity for a function like that because sometimes the Department of Justice,
00:00:32.220 which is an executive branch agency, can't necessarily, without a conflict of interest,
00:00:37.320 investigate or prosecute the President, who's their boss, or the President's family.
00:00:42.540 The reporter then followed up to try to get a more straightforward answer out of Johnson,
00:00:46.380 asking the Speaker if he was prepared to write language to eliminate Smith's job in an appropriations
00:00:51.120 bill.
00:00:51.840 His answer was very simple, flat out no.
00:00:54.620 Mike Johnson is a snake of the highest order.
00:00:56.740 To sit back and watch a President who has been persecuted for nine years is a disgrace.
00:01:01.760 ...investigation subpoena.
00:01:03.900 And the Biden regime is one step closer to jailing former Trump advisor Steve Bannon.
00:01:08.360 A federal appeals court today upheld Bannon's conviction for a contempt of Congress for defying
00:01:13.560 a subpoena related to the sham January 6th committee investigation.
00:01:18.080 Bannon does not need to report to prison right away.
00:01:20.280 He has seven days to request an en banc review, a decision from the court's entire slate of
00:01:25.620 judges, or he can petition to the U.S. Supreme Court.
00:01:28.800 These Marxist Dems in the judiciary bear no conscience or respect for the rule of law.
00:01:33.800 Join Lou today for The Great America Show.
00:01:35.540 Our guest is Senior Legal Correspondent for The Federalist, Margo Cleveland.
00:01:40.060 This is John Fawcett with The Great America Show Midday Update.
00:01:42.820 Have a great day, everybody.
