00:00What one disgruntled and defeated congressman is attempting is not oversight and it's not
00:06accountability. It's a political spectacle, a personal manifesto driven by ego and resentment.
00:13Time for one man's final days in Congress to try to do damage to this president, this country,
00:20and most irresponsibly, the warriors who defend it. It's a farce and it's a stunt and everybody
00:29knows it. In the 250 years of our American Republic, no Secretary of War or Secretary of Defense has ever
00:39been impeached for carrying out lawful military operations. And in our case, successful ones at that. Not once. War powers
00:51resolution or not. Not under Reagan in Lebanon, not under Clinton in Kosovo, not under Obama in Iraq and Syria,
00:59not under
00:59under Biden in Iraq and Syria. That's the standard. The history is clear and it's very straightforward and one disgruntled
01:09congressman wants to shred it over policy disagreements. That's what it is. Policy disagreements, not high crimes, not misdemeanors, not
01:19treason, not bribery, not the kinds of offenses the founders intended when they wrote the impeachment clause.
01:26The proper remedy for a policy disagreement. It's legislation. It's debate. It's the next presidential election. It's not handing the
01:35House and Senate floor to the Democrats so that they can run a show trial against the president and the
01:43secretary of war while Republicans still control Congress.
