00:04:50.920He's become one of the president, Trump's most outspoken, quote, Republican opponents.1.00
00:04:55.980That's how the media is using him as a useful idiot at the moment.0.98
00:04:59.860Massey has already introduced articles of impeachment against head Seth,0.99
00:05:03.500accusing him of misconduct related to American military operations overseas.
00:05:09.480Now, I want you to think about where we are at this exact moment.
00:05:13.120The American people just went to the polls.
00:05:15.040They sent Washington a message about the cost of living, the economy, the war in Iran,
00:05:19.940and their frustrations with politicians who aren't delivering results.
00:05:24.020And now, instead of starting with legislation to address any of those concerns,
00:05:28.760One of the biggest fights, the first major fight in Washington is going to be over impeaching Donald Trump's cabinet.
00:05:36.540Now, Democrats are already saying, well, this is about accountability in the Constitution.
00:05:40.420I think you know how much BS that actually is.
00:05:43.360This is about power and retribution and trying to undermine the president of the United States of America.
00:05:49.100So here's Massey in his own words before the House announcing this big decision.
00:05:54.220He says a brave decision to attack Donald Trump's cabinet.
00:05:57.700Peter Brian Hegseth thus warrants impeachment and trial, removal from office and disqualification to hold and enjoy any office of honor, trust or profit under the United States.
00:06:10.640Short, simple. And the question you should all be asking yourself is, did you hear anything in that speech that has anything to do with affordability, cost of living or any of the things that Democrats or Republicans were talking about in the midterms?
00:06:24.720Well, those that won, this is actually what they're going to do after you've given them the power.
00:06:30.820Democrats are saying it's about getting rid of anyone around the president of the United States of America.
00:06:37.320Now, thank goodness there are great members of the cabinet that are already coming to the defense of Secretary of War Pete Hedgeth,
00:06:43.540including Marco Rubio, who just fully backed the Secretary of War in the face of what many are already describing
00:06:50.160as a ridiculous impeachment attempt by thomas massey and the democrats here is marco rubio in
00:06:56.800his own words i think he's done a great job i mean i've worked with him every single day on
00:07:02.620many of these topics i've seen the work he does and the professionalism he brings to it he's very
00:07:08.480smart he works very hard he puts a lot of hours into this and on all the policy issues we've
00:07:13.220worked on together i think he's done a very good job on the topic of ai how concerning is it to
00:07:19.300you, however, that it was a Republican who introduced these articles of impeachment.
00:07:23.700I think it's unfair. Look, I think Pete's done a good job. I really do. Again, I work
00:07:28.860with him, and so I see perhaps a side of him that the media doesn't see and members of
00:07:32.480Congress may not see. But I think Pete works really hard. He's incredibly smart. I think
00:07:37.420he's not just on the issues that we've worked on together and the execution of it, but if
00:07:41.280you think about it, I mean, he's carried out multiple – the Department of War and
00:07:44.660the Pentagon in particular has been responsible for many of the important things this administration
00:07:49.260working on, whether it's our counter-cartel coalitions that we have going on in the Western
00:07:53.000Hemisphere. He's done a great job with that. I think the performance, like the damage that
00:07:57.020was inflicted on the Iranian military structures – they have no navy, they have no air force.
00:08:01.340They're deeply degraded from a military standpoint. They still retain capabilities,0.97
00:08:04.820obviously, but they are very degraded from where they were a year ago at this time.
00:08:08.560I think the operation they conducted to capture a fugitive of American justice,
00:08:12.520Nicolas Maduro was carried out impeccably. So, you know, I think from the perspective that I
00:08:19.820sit in and the seat that I'm in as the National Security Advisor and Secretary of State, for that
00:08:23.740matter, Pete has done a very good job. He really has. And, you know, but obviously, politics are
00:08:30.360politics and people can have different views. But I can tell you my perspective from where I sit.
00:08:36.060Now, you have to understand all of this is orchestrated. You have on ABC this week,
00:08:40.660Hakeem Jeffries, he is expected to be the Speaker of the House, being asked about impeaching Hegseth, and this is what he said.
00:08:48.160I'm a hard yes on the Hegseth resolution.
00:08:52.080The so-called Secretary of Defense has abused his power, undermined our national security,
00:08:59.080and engineered this reckless and costly war of choice in Iran,
00:09:03.040which has skyrocketed prices on the American people and made the country less safe.
00:09:47.640We're committed to moving aggressively during the first 100 days of the new Congress and beyond
00:09:54.620to keep our word, to fight for an affordable America, to bring about accountability,
00:09:59.620because we've seen unprecedented corruption that has been visited upon the American people,
00:10:04.980And we are committed to holding the crooks accountable and making sure that Congress functions like a separate and co-equal branch of government and a check and balance on an out of control executive branch.
00:10:16.160And we also have to restore American values like liberty and justice for all equal protection under the law, our commitment to the unfettered right to vote and to lift up our glorious history as a nation of immigrants.
00:10:31.700Now, in many ways, you can see the writing on the wall.
00:10:34.580Even Abdul El-Sayed on ABC this week attacking the president of the United States of America,
00:10:39.460saying that they're coming for him and everyone around him.0.99
00:10:42.280Also attacking the White House chief of staff, saying that he is a, quote, unserious fool.0.99
00:10:48.580This is the lawfare that is coming.0.98
00:10:50.640And they're making it clear on the very first Sunday after the election,
00:11:28.900He says he wants to work with us toward our end to actually deliver on the affordability mandate that the American public called for in my state and so many other states.
00:11:38.420And then he decides to hire the most broken man to continue to run the most dysfunctional White House that we've seen.
00:11:44.940I don't know what Stephen Miller has actually contributed to our culture, our society in any real way, except for to make us more angry, to stoke the worst kind of fear and vitriol, to weaponize ice in our streets, to take American lives.
00:11:58.200The real question is why appoint this man, White House Chief of Staff, if you want to have a productive relationship with the Congress that actually intends to deliver on the mandate that the American public has just given us?
00:12:20.360How are you going to deliver on your promises you're calling the president unserious fool that he is?1.00
00:12:26.240Well, let's talk about how he is an unserious fool.0.99
00:12:28.660Think about this war in Iran that every single president had resisted fighting because, of course, it was a dumb idea because there's this place called the Strait of Hormuz that everybody could have told you would have been a choke point on energy.0.98
00:12:39.540He does this in a moment when energy is single handedly upholding the S&P 500 because of the power of of of AI corporations building data centers right now, which we also have to start addressing because, of course, that's run amok.
00:12:52.620Let's talk about the foolishness of a tariff war with Canada.
