00:00:33.840Hello, everybody, and welcome to The Great America Show.
00:00:38.260The Senate this week doing all that it could to protect the second most corrupt man in government.
00:00:44.620And that is, of course, DHS Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas.
00:00:50.080The Senate, for the first time in American history, voted to table the articles of impeachment against Mayorkas.
00:00:58.760Marxist stem leader Chuck Schumer started off the day with a motion to declare the first article of impeachment against Mayorkas that he will willfully refuse to comply with U.S. immigration laws unconstitutional.
00:01:12.740The vote of 51 to 48, a close vote, with RINO Senator Lisa Murkowski voting present.
00:02:14.280I didn't anticipate that this would be an easy path.
00:02:17.240Former Speaker Newt Gingrich posted a couple of days ago on his social media that this is the hardest challenge that's faced a speaker probably in the history of the country in the moment we're in right now.
00:02:25.960He said arguably may be comparable to the Civil War, but may be worse.
00:02:30.640I have to tell you, Mike Johnson is an utter disgrace.
00:02:35.440He's now obviously delusional and doesn't really have a very strong grip on American history.
00:02:41.960At this point, I don't see much of a difference between him and Hakeem Jeffries in the policies that they're pursuing, the way in which they are treating the Republican conference.
00:02:51.500And that is that Mike Johnson is treating the Republican conference like both a plaything and an enemy.
00:03:01.300There hasn't been a time, not one time since he took over as speaker, that Johnson wasn't steamrolled by the Marxist Dems and that he wasn't awed by the intelligence community, the surveillance state.
00:03:15.540It's disgusting. And the good news is that there is now mounting a considerable amount of pressure to to simply get rid of it.
00:03:26.340And rightfully so. In the in the case, you haven't already been sold on the fact that Joe Biden has lost his mind, is seriously impaired cognitively.
00:03:37.580Take a listen to the puppet president talking to a small crowd, of course.
00:03:41.980So he only gets small crowds in Scranton, Pennsylvania, what he likes to consider his hometown.
00:03:48.720He tells them a story about opening his hotel door to a visitor in a towel with shaving cream on his face.
00:03:59.120One day I showed up at all for your convention and I was in I was in the motel after the local motel getting changed after the afternoon session.
00:04:09.000Go back to the evening session. I'd come down with some young activists who are a little older than me, but still young activists who were involved in trying to reform the party.
00:04:20.580And I was in one of those eight by 10 bathrooms, you know, they have shower, toilet and the sink.
00:04:27.220And I got a towel on me and shaving cream and I hear bam, bam, bam at my door really loudly.
00:04:33.320And when I went to hell, I thought of this guy, Bob Cunningham on a radio show and a couple of the guys.
00:04:40.640I said, OK, OK, guys. And I walked to the door and opened up and standing there was the former governor of the state of Delaware, Albert Ann Carville.
00:04:49.160Big guy, about 6'5", talked at you like he is.
00:04:51.760Well, folks, we have no idea what he was talking about either, but we wanted to share that with you.
00:05:21.180So you had a sense of what the country is up against when it comes to the mental acuity, the cognitive impairment of this this president of the United States.
00:05:33.020Illegitimately so, but nonetheless, the man who we still have as commander in chief.
00:05:38.520I have to tell you, I'm delighted to tell you that our next guest is Congressman Thomas Massey of Kentucky.
00:05:46.520He is one of the sharpest minds in Congress and the Senate.
00:07:41.700You know, Jim Jordan made great progress in our Judiciary Committee.
00:07:45.620And, in fact, Mike Johnson helped us with this when he was on Judiciary in terms of getting a warrant if the government wants to spy on Americans.
00:07:52.720In other words, reforming the FISA program.
00:07:58.560We fought really hard in the rules committee that I also serve on to get that bill to the floor under a rule so that you could vote on whether to have an amendment or not.
00:08:07.240Or, sorry, amendment that would require a warrant.
00:08:10.460And what happened there, Lou, is the Speaker put his finger on the scales not to help us get a warrant but to kill the warrant amendment.
00:08:18.660And so FISA was reauthorized, that's the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act, to allow the government to spy on Americans without a warrant.
00:08:40.900But he told us he was going to leave after he did all these bad things.
00:08:43.920Well, the third thing that Mike Johnson is trying to get done this week is to send about $100 billion of foreign aid, primarily to three countries, but also to many other countries and programs outside of this country.
00:08:56.620It would go to Israel, Ukraine, and Taiwan.
00:08:59.960And our problem with that is he wants to do it without doing anything for our own border.
00:09:05.700And even the Speaker himself said that was a hill to die on a few weeks ago.
00:09:11.240And he's not even fighting on this hill.
00:09:13.160So the question is, is he the guy to be our speaker?
00:09:17.420I just can't imagine where you go from here.
00:09:22.300You, Marjorie Taylor Greene, others not so publicly are expressing the very same views that you all are.
00:09:33.820You have the courage to do it publicly.
00:09:59.160And when that motion gets called, I don't plan on calling it myself, but it's going to get called.
00:10:04.700And when it gets called, I hope people won't shoot the messenger, but he doesn't have the votes to remain speaker.
00:10:10.440He'll lose far more votes than Kevin McCarthy lost.
00:10:13.720And so what I did this week is I co-sponsored Marjorie Taylor Greene's motion to vacate.
00:10:20.340Now, this is different than what was done last fall.
00:10:23.420Last fall, they called the motion to vacate from the floor of the House, and it had to be voted on within two days.
00:10:29.420And as soon as it passed, we didn't have a speaker.
00:10:32.880What I am proposing and what I'm trying to encourage the speaker to do is that he resign, but announce his resignation eight weeks from now so that we would have time to replace him.
00:12:03.100We saw what happened in 2020 when we found ourselves dependent on global supply chains.
00:12:07.960We're still dependent on China and other countries for more than 90 percent of all our pharmaceuticals.
00:12:13.400With clusters of respiratory illnesses popping up around the world and here, we need to be prepared.
00:12:19.560And now is the time to make certain you have what your family needs when the next crisis hits.
00:12:25.200Our good friends, Dr. Peter McCullough and Dr. Drew Penske over at the Wellness Company have put together just what you and I need with the Wellness Company's medical emergency kit.
00:12:34.900And now the Wellness Company's medical kit provides a solution critical to you and your loved ones.
00:12:40.360This emergency kit includes eight life-saving medications including amoxicillin, Z-Pak and ivermectin for you to keep on hand along with a guidebook for safe use.
00:12:50.960From tick bites to biochemical events, every medical scenario is covered.
00:13:27.160And Congressman, I want to say, again, you are absolutely as rational and thought out on this, I was about to say as thought out as anyone, you are far more thought out and rational on this than anyone I've heard speak from Capitol Hill.
00:13:46.200You're feeling about the temper of the conference.
00:14:14.720The best thing that could happen here in Washington, D.C. is if three or four or five more people co-sponsor this motion to vacate and then we can not call it to the floor yet.
00:14:25.540Go to Speaker Johnson and say, look, here are the cards.
00:14:29.420Show him the cards that he can no longer remain Speaker.
00:14:32.760This is not personal between me and Speaker Johnson.
00:14:35.880He is just on every major issue, failed to negotiate anything of substance for the Republican Party.
00:16:44.300I do believe he's a bit over his head.
00:16:47.040But the thing that that he claims, just to take him at his word, that is motivating his change of opinion and ideology right now is that he's been to this gift where where the classified information is delivered.
00:16:59.860And he says that what he's seen there has changed his mind on Ukraine and what he's seen there has changed his mind on the FISA 702 program.
00:17:10.640And, you know, I don't think I think I can safely put to rest all the stories about blackmail or anything like that.
00:17:18.920I just think he's been overwhelmed by the job and that people at the Pentagon, the military industrial complex, people, you know, who he respects,
00:17:27.080have sort of bullied or scared him into a position where he believes he has no negotiating power with Chuck Schumer or Biden.
00:17:36.540For instance, if you deeply and sincerely believe that Ukraine is going to fall, if you don't send him 60 billion dollars tomorrow,
00:17:44.140then you probably aren't going to get anything on our own border if Ukraine is your highest priority because you've been talking to those people.
00:17:51.900But the reality is, if the establishment here really believes that Ukraine is that important,
00:17:57.860we need to hold our ground and say our border is that important and, you know, fix our border before you fix Ukraine's border.
00:18:06.020We're talking with Congressman Thomas Massey.
00:18:09.020We're coming right back as we try to better understand what is a tragic figure right now as it is he stands.
00:18:17.420And that is a man who's likely to fall.
00:18:19.540And that is Mike Johnson, Speaker of the House.
00:18:22.900We'll be right back with Thomas Massey.
00:19:23.520It wouldn't be Hakeem Jeffries himself, but, you know, maybe there are four or five people in Hakeem Jeffries' conference who would be given a hall pass to go do this and to vote for Speaker Johnson.
00:19:36.820Here's the problem with that plan or that notion.
00:19:40.120Number one, I don't think there are enough Democrats.
00:19:42.500A sprinkling of Democrats wouldn't do it.
00:19:45.340He's going to lose a lot of votes when and if this – it's not if – when this motion to vacate gets called by somebody.
00:19:53.680The other problem is for every Democrat who crosses the aisle to help Mike Johnson, he becomes far more toxic to Republicans.
00:20:01.900And he probably loses three people on the fence on the Republican side for every Democrat that comes across to help him.
00:20:08.440That's not to say he might survive one round and remain Speaker for a few more weeks, but then I think the public distaste for having that kind of coalition government and the questions about what did he give up to get those Democrats would further erode his political capital and he would not survive subsequent votes for Speaker.
00:20:28.320Another calculation, if you will, your analysis, how much does this hurt the GOP, the Republican Party, going into November 5th?
00:20:39.700The American people on every poll I've seen are appalled by what they're witnessing here, the weakness of leadership and the failure of the conference.
00:21:19.660But I think we have bigger jeopardy of losing the House with Mike Johnson in charge.
00:21:26.100He's he's not inspiring our base to put us back in the majority.
00:21:31.380And we need somebody who gets in there and does that job and doesn't betray us on every one of these big votes like the omnibus on FISA and on the foreign aid and let us down on the border.
00:21:41.800Let me ask you, the Senate, for the first time in American history, has tabled the impeachment of Alejandro Mayorkas.
00:23:24.660And the unit party probably had a hand in stopping that.
00:23:28.200Well, the all powerful unit party, the deep state, the Marxist Dems and their and their and their sponsors and donors.
00:23:36.420Do you have a person, man or woman, who you think would be that speaker that could salvage the Republican Party and its prospects on November 5th?
00:23:50.040Well, Jim Jordan, without a doubt, would would really renew, I think, people's faith in Congress.
00:23:57.060He showed in the Judiciary Committee that he will fight the whole time he's been here.
00:24:04.680He doesn't go off on wild goose chases.
00:24:07.700He would be a great person to lead this conference.
00:24:10.420I think he would inspire the fundraisers, the donors who aren't back in Congress right now, who's given up on us to really double down and try again.
00:24:19.040So I think he's the leader and he would be my first preference.
00:24:24.000And I'm going to say hallelujah, Congressman.
00:24:29.100And by the way, on everything you've said here today and everything you say nearly every day.
00:24:34.880Thomas Massey, great American, great congressman, great representative for the people of Kentucky, his district, the most fortunate among them, because he represents them full time.
00:24:46.500Congressman Massey, thank you so much.
