Speaker 1 (00:00):
Tonight is primary night in Kentucky, and the race the
entire country is going to be looking at is that
of libertarian, Republican, anti war activist Congressman Thomas Massey. He
has now opposed Trump on the Big Beautiful Bill, on

(00:22):
the War with Iran, and of course on the Epstein
Files most famously, and President Trump has now called for
him to be defeated. He has backed a primary challenger
to Massey, Ed Golrin, a former Navy seal and a
fifth generation Kentucky farmer. The pole say it is going

(00:45):
to be neck and neck. We may be up until midnight,
even one two o'clock in the morning to finally know
who the winner will be. Massey, a seventh term incumbent,
has a strong following in the fourth congressional district. It
is a deep red state. He's been winning his primaries

(01:08):
and re elections easily. However, now Golrain, in the latest
two poles, is slightly ahead. And what Thomas Massey is
about to find out is that if you cross President
Trump and you oppose him, especially on big issues like

(01:29):
his signature tax cut and spending Bill, or the Epstein Files,
or now the War with Iran, he will come after
you with everything that he has, and Ed Golrain has
had plenty of money backing him. Superpack after superpack, billionaires

(01:49):
aligned with Trump have now filled his campaign war chest
and they have flooded the airwaves with one negative attack
ad against Massey another And so Massey has now seen
his lead. About two weeks ago he was seven points ahead.
Slowly dwindle and dwindle and dwindle to now he may

(02:13):
be behind. If not, it is neck and neck and
down the wire. Thomas Massey maybe the last true libertarian
Republican left in the House Republican Conference, and his opposition
to Trump on such major issues may have cost him

(02:35):
his political career. And the question Massey must now ask
himself was it worth it. Senator Bill Cassidy, a Rhino
Republican in Louisiana, got destroyed in Saturday's primary after Trump
backed his major challenger, a MAGA Conservative. It was so bad.

(02:59):
Senator Bill Cassidy in the Republican primary finished third out
of the three candidates. That's how bad the political defeat was.
Cassidy is now finished politically. Soon. Ken Paxton, the MAGA Conservative,

(03:20):
is going to go up against John Cornyn the Rhino
Republican in the Texas Republican primary. Poll's show Cornyn is
in trouble. Cassidy has fallen, Massy may fall, and it
looks like Cornyn will fall as well in the Texas
primary that's just around the corner. President Trump is putting

(03:45):
his imprimeter, his stamp on the Republican Party. You cross
him at your peril, and tonight Thomas Massey may find
this out the hard way prediction. Massey is going down,
and after he falls, so will Cornyn, and then the

(04:09):
big one can finally a conservative insurgent take out Lindsey
Gramnesty aka Senator Lindsey Graham. If Lindsey Graham falls, it's
good night for the Rhinos. President Trump is making the
Republican Party his party, primary by primary by primary, and

(04:37):
Thomas Massey just may be his next casualty.
