impeachment is an indictment it's not the trial it's not conclusive it doesn't mean

you're voting to remove the person from office it's an indictment I think that gets

lost a lot of times. City Right. Maybe you just came drunk and stay inside. Good afternoon Michael Malice here, let that be a welcome for the next hour.

We have with best returning guest Justin Amash, former congressman.

He is now running for the Senate in Michigan.

Justin, I really hope you get the nomination and I hope you get the seat. I think you'd be a great asset to the Senate period and a discussion.

Before we start I do want to point out that you had just messaged me as we record that Thomas Massey's wife of 35 years has passed away this morning. messes

as we record that Thomas Massey's wife of 35 years has passed away this morning

so we'll dedicate this episode in her memory.

It's just a very very tragic who's quite young,

early 50s, and I know you're friends with both of them so this is just a very sad way to start this interview

Yeah, it's really heartbreaking news. You know Thomas is a good friend. I've known Rhonda as well for many years and just to hear about it and very sudden unexpected

Our heart goes out to them and and may her memory be eternal.

Yeah, that actually segues to the next question which I had planned, which I was going to be a little

facetious about, so let's see if we can still pull that off which is your young great resume

charismatic articulate I'm sure you got a JD great Rolodex I'm sure your wife's a lovely woman. I know you're really into being a dad.

Last time we interviewed you had your kids pictures on the wall behind you. Why are you putting your family through this?

I mean Michigan's a great place. Do you really need this?

Yeah. I think that we have to have someone doing this right now. I mean, I looked at this race and you had

Alyssa Slochen on the Democratic side and Mike Rogers on the Republican side.

You have two people who are the most pro-surveillance state, pro-war, pro-spending, just basically the worst kind of senators you could possibly have if they're elected.

And so I saw myself as a person who was ideally suited to take them on.
