Summary
Asmongold TV dives into a chaotic post-election moment featuring Thomas Massie’s unconventional concession speech. The clip blends Massie’s signature libertarian rhetoric with surprise cameos from internet influencers and a surreal stream-side vibe, all while he proclaims a “movement” over a traditional campaign. Asmongold notes the debate around America-first foreign policy, government spending, and civil liberties, peppering the stream with skeptical commentary on media coverage and mainstream politics. Massie touts a clean ethics record, rails against overseas interventions, and tosses in pop-culture quips about raw milk, the Epstein Files Transparency Act, and Klaus Schwab’s World Economic Forum. The host questions the influence of big donors, super PACs, and online personalities in shaping political narratives, while Massie hints at future political ambitions and a continuation of his transpartisan branding. The overall tone is frenetic, humorous, and combatively anti-establishment, capturing a moment where traditional politics collide with internet culture. Viewers get a taste of Massie’s platform — less about policy detail, more about principle, memes, and a counter-establishment swagger. The segment ends with speculation about the next steps for Massie and the ongoing narrative of “we started a movement.”

There he is. All right. We We didn't wait for nothing. Super Israel. We already have Super Israel. It's called America. There he is. I wonder now if he's uh if he's out of a job if he come on a stream. All right, listen. I would I would have come out sooner, but I had to call my opponent and concede. And it took a while to find Ed Galrine in Tel Aviv. talking mad [ __ ] I did get the call through though. I have I have called and conceded the race. Um we've been honorable the whole time and we're going to stay that way.
You know, welcome to the most expensive congressional primary ever in the 250 year history of this country so far. It's not just the most expensive. This thing went on longer than Vietnam. It started nine months ago and this they didn't even have a candidate and they decided they want to take me out. Um I want to start by thanking the volunteers who have put so much effort into this. Some of you came from all across the country. Some of you are homegrown. I love all of you. All right. Hold on. Hold on. All right. I see.
I see how this is going to work. I'm going to have to not quit talking or you'll start doing it. Uhhuh. Um, I want to thank my staff, too. Some of my staff have been with me from the very first race in 2012. And they have done so much. the, you know, I know he's around that long. Contrary to all the BS you've heard, we've never had a single ethics complaint filed against me or my staff in 14 years. That's really respectable. You know, that really is. I I want to I want to thank the donors.
Now, listen, I'd name them all, but there's 50,000 donors, okay? We didn't we didn't lose this race because we didn't have enough money. You know, it it is the most expensive race ever. I think when they add it up, right now they can count 35 million. I think when they add it up, it's going to be a lot more than that because on our side probably is. We know we spent more than 15 million and um we were able to go toe-to-toe. There was never a week that we got outspent more than two to one in this entire race.
um once it got underway and that's that's also it did it wasn't just the grassroots donors we had a long time one of my longest friends he went through a a rough spell and I never left him I always supported him and he actually started the super PAC the one that nobody knows who runs it um Cliff Maloney if you're around would you come up here maybe I can get him out here to take some credit. If he's in the crowd, just pick him up and surf him over. Wasting money. They didn't waste money. They tried to win.
They didn't win. Cliff, cliff, cliff. Cliff. That's the way it is. Cliff. I see. By the way, I see one of my online influencer heroes, Bobby Soft, over here. Wait, what? OH, I THOUGHT HE was going to say me, bro. Come on. There were there were a lot of surreal moments in this race and frankly in being in Congress, but being in a side by side racing through the woods with Bobby Sauce was definitely on my it wasn't even on my bucket list. It was amazing. Um, so and and getting to that point, I want to thank the influencers who came all this way and produced all the videos and got out the young vote.
You're welcome. I want to thank my family. That's who we have arrayed back here. My grandbabies. All three of them. Damn. She's she's clapping too. Um it's a little bit overwhelming for him, but um they are what recharges my batteries when I come back from Washington DC, these grandb babies. And that's what we're fighting for really is the next generation and the next generation after that. Yeah. But I have to especially thank my wife Carolyn. Her parents Her parents knew what they were doing when they named her. Her middle name is Grace. And um but she's a fighter.
I mean, she's uh been tweeted at twice by the chief executive, the most powerful country in the world. She blames me for that cuz I didn't invite him to the wedding. God, bro. Also, she can't she voted this morning and she came out and she said, "Well, that was a wild experience. That was great. I never imagined that would happen." And I said, "What happened?" and she said, "I got to vote for my husband and my favorite congressman." I said, "That's practically a throppple." Oh my god. Oh, in all seriousness, um, walking out here and seeing all of you has really energized me.
Um, and it has all along. But why why am I hopeful right now? Because if you looked at the cross tab in the polling, and I'm sure if we had exit polling, it would show the same thing. The We have the younger demographic. We We It's true. It's true. It's all the old folks. Yeah. It's a lot of young guys, bro. Young guys are in on this. USA. I don't even know who this guy is. You are you are patriots and you will inherit this country and you will make it better and I am hopeful because of that.
Thank you. We we accidentally go voted against I meant didn't mean to do this. It started out as an election and it turned into a movement. We the boy cattle debuff is too strong. So many conservatives are cheering for Apac. It's disgusting. There's more to it than that. To be fair, there's more to it. I mean, I think I think people if you're not if you're not tired of politics, if you're not jaded, if you're not cynical, and so many people are, you know, the people that I, you know, want somebody that'll go along to get along.
I've never heard of that strategy, but that seems to be what the voters want. That's what's been promised to them. But not the young voters. I mean, we stirred up something. There is a yearning in this country for somebody who will vote for principles over party. He's right. He's right there. This 3,000 years ago, this Senate seat was promised. You all You all don't like bullies and you don't tolerate them and I love you for it. You also This is a goyociocracy. They couldn't listen. I don't know if I like that one. Yeah, we'll have to work on that.
Hey, if I known if if I had known this speech if I known this speech was going to be this fun to give, I would have come out 15 minutes sooner. Um, look, for 14 for 14 years, those sobs in Washington tried to buy my vote. Yeah, they they couldn't buy it. Why did this Why did the race get so expensive? Because they decided to buy the seat. Mhm. And it and it got real expensive for I like boyism. Look, um they used they used a lot of dirty tricks, but we stayed the course. We did not we didn't bend a knee.
We didn't throw a foul ball. We didn't do any of those things. We didn't kneecap anybody. There were We had lots of opportunities to try a lot of stuff like that and we never did it. We ran a clean race. and there's by the way after 18 months of blacking of a blackout of not letting me on Fox, they finally let me on Fox today. 4 hours into the election. Oh, that's nice. Just in time. Bro, he got zogged out. Got zogged out of his mind. Hey, their their slop their slop is selling, so they'll keep selling it.
But but listen, I got to watch Fox also for the first time in 18 months. And there was the president talking about, by the way, while gas is almost $5 and diesel's almost filled up last night. They're talking about this big home they're going to build. And it looks it looks like ro the Roman Empire, architecture from the Roman Empire. I see a few analogies there. People are just trying to make ends meet. But we were promised that um Miriam would pay for that ballroom, but she's they she spent so much money in this race.
They're going to have to reduce the footprint of that thing. But here's one thing I saw on Fox. They were saying, "Oh my goodness, you know, we're ready for war. There's about this we're about to restart this war. We were supposed to restart this war today, but we can't restart this war today. The war can't start today." They said, "We got to wait a day." Why? Oh, he thinks it's because like it occurred to me. Where was the secretary of war yesterday? He was here. Listen, this makes him look bad. It does. It makes it look really bad.
Wait, wait. No, look on the wars. Look on the bright side. No more wars. No more wars. No more wars. No more wars. No more wars. No more. Knock that off. You're going to make me feel good about losing. What I wanted to do was give you all credit. When they saw the influencers here, they panicked. They sent the secretary of war here and you stopped the war for a day. That's a good one. All right. We know we don't want a war and we know why young people are and you know middle-aged people are against the next war because we'd be the ones fighting it.
They're trying to bring back the draft. Screw that. Oh, they're trying to raise the age. We're not I don't agree with that. We're not going to fight in it. We're not going to fight some other country's wars, are we? No. I don't like that at all. What else do we stand for? Not. We don't want to send our money overseas. Okay, I'll go for that. I've got a bill to do that. I've also got a bill to end the ed in the department of education. Good. But don't work. Ran Paul says he wants to pass a law that you need one day to read 10 pages of every bill.
I asked Rand, "What are you going to do about my bill that's one sentence long to end the Department of Education?" That'd be like five minutes to read that bill. By the way, do you know how many pages the Epstein Files Transparency Act was? Two pages. We don't want We know we're tired of meddling overseas. We can't afford it. Our empire will collapse if we keep sending our money to other countries. I never picked a fight with the country that's tried to take me out here because I've never But I've never voted for foreign aid to any country.
Wait, which country is trying to take? We got to take care of America first. America first. America first. America first. America first. America first. America first. America first. America first. By the way, there was you remember that organization that Klaus Schwab started called the World ECONOMIC FORUM. OH, YOU'LL OWN NOTHING and be happy. Oh, boo. You said they said you should eat bugs. Do you want to eat bugs? Yes, I want to eat bugs. I want I want you to own nothing and be happy about it. You want to do that? Well, guess what happened?
Guess what happened to Klaus's CEO? He was in the Epstein files. He had to resign. We took out We took out the CEO of the World Economic Forum with a two-page No more bugs. Oh, back to playing WoW again. What else? What else are we for? Look, I for years I've been standing up for the Second Amendment, the first amendment, fourth amendment, the fifth amendment, the 10th amendment. I just realized the seventh amendment is under attack. It's because I serve on the judiciary committee. The the seventh amendment is your right to a jury trial. They've taken it away for vaccines.
If you get hurt, you can't sue for vaccines. They're trying to take it away for pesticides. They're trying to take it away for these data. My mom was in on this. No, we've been we've been fighting that back. So, that's part of that's an amendment that frankly I didn't think I was going to have to fight for, but I've been fighting for it in DC and we need to keep fighting for the seventh amendment, too. They want these corporations want get out of court free cards. We're not going to give them one. What else is part of our coalition?
cutting Doge, cutting spending. They They ran They ran Doge out of town. I did. [ __ ] Elon Musk found out it was easier to land a rocket backwards. It was easier to get a car to drive itself. It was easier to put internet on Antarctica than it was to cut a $100 of spending in Washington DC. It's a tough problem, but we're not going to give up on that either. Can you ride about those? Maha. Is anybody here for maja? Does anybody want to eat poison? I did that. Do you want the government telling you what to eat?
It was uh to put a needle in your arm? I don't either. And that's why I've been fighting all of that stuff. We need food freedom. We need medical freedom. We need all of those freedoms. What happened? And we need we need basic decency. We need basic decency. That's what the Epstein Files Transparency Act is all about. By the way, today is the six-month anniversary of the Epstein Files Transparency Act. We've taken out two dozen CEOs, an ambassador, a prince, a prime minister. That's on his way out, a minister of culture. That's the guy that she And that was just 6 months.
I got seven months left in Congress. Oh man. What's your prime minister? I thought he was thinking about pierced armor. Hey, it did negative effect on the man. Bipartisanship become a dirty word in this country. It never should be. By the way, I'm not even sure that I'm bipartisan. By means you like both. I might be transpartisan. cuz I can't identify with either some days. That's That's nonpartisan. That's the great thing about the polls being closed. They can't run an ad where I claim to be trans. Transpartisan. Thank you very much. I don't know which cloak room to go in.
So, but look, if I if if you know I I bet you've been through some of you studied political science, by the way, that's not a real science. I'm a political science denier. If you're already halfway through that degree theater and call it political theater, somebody's not going to like that. Then you can serve on the oversight committee, the judiciary committee. You can be on the whip team. What's a member? What's the difference between a used car salesman and a member of the whip team? The used car salesman knows when he's lying. They go around telling everybody, "Oh, that good stuff's in the bill.
All that bad stuff's not in the bill." I don't blame them. They haven't read the bill. They're not lying. They don't know they're lying. Anyways, that's bad. Um, bipartisanship. We need to bring this concession speech or a roach. We It is not roach. You mean there's too much of the uni party in Washington DC. What we need is a unity party. They want to run. Is Massie a transdemocrat or a trans Republican? We got to figure that out. Look, we ran we ran a race that you can be proud of. You have to apologize to nobody tomorrow for anything you did.
And we kept smiling the whole time. When I was called a [ __ ] at the prayer breakfast, I said, "I'm glad I'm in his prayers." Just that would be my advice to you all. Don't dig in. Don't get mad. Don't even try to get even. Just stay on your course. Get our stuff done. Get the things you care about done. We weren't really running against uh Ed Galrine. We weren't running against Donald Trump. We were running for what we believe in. If we ran as a Democrat government identity politics with the president. If the if the legislative branch always votes with the president, we do have a king.
If the legislative branch always vote, which votes whichever way the wind is blowing, then we have mob rule. But if the legislative branch and the representatives and the senators that serve with it always follow the constitution, we have a republic. He said this on Twitter. That's how I knew. How long is this going to go on for? Why did Why are all the loud ones in the front? I could have heard you in the back. Listen, I want to I I want to leave you with this. Oh, wait, wait, wait, wait. I wanna I want to have a toast.
Does anybody have their glasses? If you don't, I saw I saw a few glasses. Okay. A bunch of beers, right? This is This is the one scandal. This is the one scandal they never figured out on me. Oh man, I get my milk from the Amish cartel and I and I don't pay for it with Federal Reserve notes. I I trade peaches peaches for dairy. I wonder if that's true. And and what I want to do is I in um this is uh a toast in honor of my late wife. I introduced a raw milk bill and a milk lobby came after me viciously.
They said there wouldn't be enough hospitals for all the kids that would be sick and dying. Damn, that's a lot. If we had raw milk. But the problem with that is it's already leak in a bunch of states and I've been drinking it for years. So, uh, my late wife's Google alerts were going off. They were she was getting all this bad press about me up there in Washington DC and she was worried for me and I've got a pretty thick skin, but she texted me one of those stories and she said, "OMG, I didn't realize the lactose lobby was so intolerant." Good morning.
So, let's have a drink. I I don't have any opinions on uh on on milk raw milk. I I have no opinions on this topic. I decided before today that we were going to win or lose today and we would win either way whether because Uh, you know, when I try to tell my grandson to be quiet tonight, he is not going to He probably be saying, "Massie, Massie." Here's what I want to leave you with. Um, this we won. We won because we started a movement. We did. Oh, we showed people. All right. All right.
He just says he won. All right. Under 50. You want to save this country? Who lost? Hey, classic. Work for Trump. bro, I won. But but what happened? What happened today was God's will. It couldn't happen if God didn't want it to. So, our job, and I'm not going to make any announcements tonight. I'm going to go back, have me a medical margarita. I'll hang out and party with you all. You know, I don't drink recreationally. I have medical margaritas. I even have a medical margarita card. But, but what happened What happened today? I don't think you can run.
What happened today? Real estate, I think it's going to happen. Was God's will and we have to figure out what was the purpose of having the biggest fight ever. Biggest fight ever. Why did Why did it converge on one of 435 congressional seats right here in Kentucky? What was God's purpose? What is he showing us tonight? Just getting started. We're just getting started. I like that Tomus is not a Simpsons episode. No, he's not. Yellow. He's not. Raw's really bad. In between is dangerous. I I don't know. I don't think I should be the one saying not to drink things that are bad.
What What happens in 2028? Donald Trump begins his third presidential uh term. You Oh, you want me to run for Congress again? Yeah. It means Trump. I don't know what you're talking about. Well, he he wins his fourth, he serves his third. Okay. That's illegal. What are you gay? What do you mean? What do you mean it's it's illegal? What are you talking about? All right. Well, you made you made a compelling argument. You spoke your piece, but I need a medical margarita right now. Okay. And we'll and we'll talk about it later. Thank you and God bless.
Wow. What a That one went on. That was way too long. It was way too long, man. Like, come on. Jesus. I like I like Thomas Massie, but like And damn. So So he's dating a woman like he's They said she's like 20 years younger than him, man. How about that? That's crazy. Isn't it crazy how normalized we've made that recently? Like Trump does it, he does it. Cash Patel does it. Like, wow. Dating way younger girls has just been totally normalized. She's our age. That's nuts. Why not you? Why' you relax? How about that?
Younger women aren't jaded. Yeah. Yeah. They're not ruined by uh by feminism. That's it. Well, um there it is. Thomas Massie lost. Got zogged out of his mind. He went he fought the man and the man won and that's it. And I feel like honestly he uh you know it's like if you've got I thought I was Richard Nixon. Um, and so, uh, I I I feel like if you if you run a campaign and you're honest with yourself, you're honest with your voters and everything and things don't go the way you want, that's just the way it is.
That's it. Yeah. I mean, you can't get upset. It's just the way it is. I hear older women are more emotionally stable. That's not true. My mom was crazy. Talking about what the [ __ ] you mean? You kidding me? Holy. Yeah. What are you talking about? Mom crazy. He's crazy as hell. I be complaining about her about my girlfriend. She going to group my girlfriend. [ __ ] ridiculous. Crazy hasn't made any other appearance. So, well, the thing is that I think Ed Galain is flying over to Tel Aviv to do his uh celebration speech right now. Yeah, I think uh I think that's it.
Paxton has a 96% chance of winning. Yeah, that's probably the case. But yeah, he's flying over there to to say thank you. Thank you guys for voting for me. Thanks for rigging the elections. Uh, I'd like to dedicate this victory to the Jewish space lasers that were able to change the election machines in America. Uh, this was a huge benefit for me and now I will continue to vote for a trillion dollars to Israel. That's it. And he's going to kiss the wall. Yeah. So, um, there it is.
