- 3:03Speaker 2: out because they know it's important that you have this
- 3:06Speaker 2: bit of information, like it's important you have a kitchen
- 3:08Speaker 2: that works for you. And that's exactly what they did
- 3:11Speaker 2: for me. The countertop, the backsplash, the new sink, a faucet,
- 3:15Speaker 2: putting it all together, making it work. And when you've
- 3:18Speaker 2: already got the existing cabinetry, You know, a lot can
- 3:21Speaker 2: go wrong. You know, the things weren't measured right earlier.
- 3:23Speaker 2: How do you get it done right now? What if
- 3:26Speaker 2: you make a mistake? Brewer Remodeling, for me, they made
- 3:28Speaker 2: no mistakes. They came in with the new countertops, put
- 3:31Speaker 2: it right down, fit perfectly. They are perfect. We thought
- 3:36Speaker 2: about the quartz, and we thought about the quartzite, and
- 3:37Speaker 2: then we thought about the marble, and we thought about this.
- 3:40Speaker 1: And Brewer was like, okay, try this. Look at that.
- 3:42Speaker 2: Here's what this will do. Here's the issues known with
- 3:45Speaker 2: this type of material. We went with the granite. We
- 3:48Speaker 2: went with this honed, leathered granite where.
- 3:49Speaker 1: You can actually feel it. It's got texture. It's super weird,
- 3:53Speaker 1: super amazing. And then, yeah, the backsplash was, if I'm right,
- 3:57Speaker 1: it's like a marble.
- 3:59Speaker 2: That's what we went with. Hey, you could do it differently.
- 4:01Speaker 2: I'm not here to judge. That's the point with Boer.

- 4:36Speaker 1: You want to play it again? Sure, why not? Go ahead.
- 4:38Speaker 1: It's a story you need to hear to believe.
- 4:40Speaker 2: Then grab your popcorn. Because there is more. Thomas Massey.
- 4:45Speaker 2: Walking out the door in the House of Representatives, he
- 4:47Speaker 2: was actually shown the door in Kentucky. And he yesterday
- 4:51Speaker 2: decided to bring impeachment charges against Pete Hegseth.
- 4:57Speaker 1: Didn't know about this. Why didn't you tell them you
- 4:59Speaker 1: were planning to introduce this?
- 5:02Speaker 3: Every time they see the hand that I'm going to play,
- 5:04Speaker 3: they get a chance to react. So last week that
- 5:08Speaker 3: we were in session, I introduced the discharge petition for
- 5:12Speaker 3: the Epstein files, the part two.
- 5:14Speaker 1: What did they do? They called off.
- 5:16Speaker 3: Two weeks of Congress between now and the election to
- 5:18Speaker 3: keep me from getting to 218 signatures. This is the
- 5:22Speaker 3: second Epstein recess.
- 5:24Speaker 1: We had an.
- 5:24Speaker 3: Epstein recess a year ago where they called off Congress
- 5:27Speaker 3: for like six weeks. So I didn't want to show
- 5:29Speaker 3: my hand. I didn't show it to anybody. I was
- 5:31Speaker 3: afraid that they would do something to subvert me getting
- 5:35Speaker 3: on the floor for an hour and 20 minutes and
- 5:37Speaker 3: reading these articles.
- 5:38Speaker 1: And so you read all of this.
- 5:39Speaker 3: In terms of what happened here, have you heard from
- 5:42Speaker 3: Speaker Johnson since this afternoon?
- 5:45Speaker 1: We'll find out about that in a second.
- 5:48Speaker 2: First, if you're going on CNN to talk about your
- 5:51Speaker 2: articles of impeachment against Pete Hegseth, that kind of explains
- 5:55Speaker 2: where you're at right now, Congressman Massey. Pete Hegseth has
- 6:00Speaker 2: not done anything impeachable at all. This is maddening. And
- 6:05Speaker 2: they would have been right to try and keep you
- 6:07Speaker 2: from it. Although I would argue that if a House
- 6:09Speaker 2: member wants to do something dopey, a House member can
- 6:13Speaker 2: do something dopey. The hatred for Pete Hegseth It's just blather.
- 6:21Speaker 2: It's what they say. There's no basis for it whatsoever.
- 6:23Speaker 1: None.
- 6:25Speaker 2: Pete Hegseth may not be perfect, but he's far better
- 6:29Speaker 2: than I thought he would be. And he's been far
- 6:32Speaker 2: more beneficial to rebuilding the military than I thought he
- 6:36Speaker 2: would be. Now, I don't think this means there's an
- 6:39Speaker 2: appetite for him to run for president. I do believe
- 6:44Speaker 2: that Pete Hagstaff has created for himself great opportunities for
- 6:48Speaker 2: the future. And right now he's doing exactly the things
- 6:52Speaker 2: in the main, maybe not in toto, that our military needs.
- 6:57Speaker 2: So pushing for the impeachment from Thomas Massey seems like
- 7:03Speaker 2: a pretty callous thing to do as you're heading out
- 7:06Speaker 2: the door. The people of Kentucky voted in a different direction.
- 7:10Speaker 2: Massey already said he's going to run again in two years.
- 7:12Speaker 2: Maybe he'll be successful in two years. Maybe it'll be
- 7:14Speaker 2: a different political climate. Political climates mean a lot. But
- 7:20Speaker 2: how did Speaker Johnson react to you announcing these charges
- 7:26Speaker 2: on the floor of the House?
- 7:28Speaker 1: And of course, you didn't tell anybody.
- 7:30Speaker 3: I have not heard from Speaker Johnson, but he has
- 7:33Speaker 3: two legislative days, actually 48 hours to call this vote.
- 7:37Speaker 3: So he could call the vote tomorrow or the day
- 7:40Speaker 3: after tomorrow. And that was another reason for the timing.
- 7:44Speaker 3: If I were to offer this tomorrow instead of today,
- 7:47Speaker 3: they could have punted this until after the election.
- 7:49Speaker 1: This is a hot war. This could become a nuclear war.
- 7:53Speaker 3: And in the interim, even if it doesn't, there are
- 7:56Speaker 3: civilian casualties that are If we're talking about.
- 7:59Speaker 2: Iran and it could be a nuclear war, is this
- 8:02Speaker 2: you admitting that Iran has nuclear weapons? I'm asking for,
- 8:06Speaker 2: you know, all of humanity here.
- 8:10Speaker 1: Are you admitting, Congressman, that they have nuclear weapons?
- 8:14Speaker 3: Racking up greater than they would have otherwise, because another
- 8:18Speaker 3: one of my articles of impeachment shows that Peter Hegsath
- 8:22Speaker 3: has degraded the ability of the DOD to to minimize
- 8:27Speaker 3: civilian casualties. He asked Congress to repeal a law that
- 8:31Speaker 3: requires him to minimize civilian casualties. Congress didn't do it.
- 8:35Speaker 3: So he went ahead and did it on his own
- 8:36Speaker 3: within the DOD. And the results were predictable. That's why
- 8:40Speaker 3: 200 school kids were killed in the first attack on Iran.
- 8:44Speaker 1: So this has been a conversation for a while.
- 8:47Speaker 2: And certainly if it was indeed a school and certainly
- 8:50Speaker 2: if 200 children.
- 8:51Speaker 1: Died, that is terrible. I concur. Absolutely.
- 8:57Speaker 2: I am different in that I do agree that we
- 9:02Speaker 2: should be a nation that focuses on the enemy. and
- 9:06Speaker 2: recognizing the difference between the enemy and the non-enemy, even
- 9:09Speaker 2: in a country we're at war with. I accept that
- 9:15Speaker 2: in the warfare, bad things can happen. The question before
- 9:20Speaker 2: us is, was there a purposeful targeting?
- 9:24Speaker 1: Not was there a mistake made?
- 9:26Speaker 2: It's a hard mistake, and there are political realities to that.
- 9:29Speaker 2: If you tell me there's purposeful targeting of children.
- 9:33Speaker 1: I can understand your anger and I can be with you.
- 9:38Speaker 2: This is put the United States military in a place
- 9:42Speaker 2: where no other military puts themselves.
- 9:45Speaker 1: You can't even make a mistake. This is war.
- 9:52Speaker 2: But let's get back to the nitty gritty of it.
- 9:54Speaker 2: Do you believe that Iran has a nuclear weapon or
- 9:56Speaker 2: is trying to get a nuclear weapon? And if you do,
- 10:00Speaker 2: thomas massey why wouldn't you want to stop them and
- 10:02Speaker 2: if you believe they're doing it and you don't want
- 10:04Speaker 2: to stop them and you think it's wrong to try
- 10:06Speaker 2: and stop them well then weren't the people of kentucky
- 10:08Speaker 2: right to vote you out because i believe they were
- 10:12Speaker 2: in either situation because you can totally agree with thomas
- 10:15Speaker 2: massey if you want on not being in this war,
- 10:19Speaker 2: and you can argue that Iran wasn't a problem. I'll
- 10:22Speaker 2: think that you're wrong, and I will say so loudly.
- 10:26Speaker 2: But this impeachment proceeding is ridiculous. Gross, amateurish politics from
- 10:34Speaker 2: what has become a gross guy, and it's a shame.
- 10:39Speaker 2: But he'll be gone soon, and, well, that'll be that.
