Sen. Mike Lee EXPOSES Mike Johnson & Cronies, Calls for Elon Musk or Vivek as House Speaker!

Sen. Mike Lee had a lot to say during an appearance on Jesse Watters’ Primetime.

Discussing the pork spending bill, which Sen. Lee referred to as a “historic betrayal of the American people,” he accused Mike Johnson of working together with Chuck Schumer, Mitch McConnell, and Hakeem Jeffries to negotiate a bill in secret, which they expect to “sneak” through before Christmas!

And, it didn’t work, primarily “because the American people are awake” and can now voice their opinions through platforms like X.

Sen. Lee also said because of this massive failure, “somebody’s going to have to lose their job over this.”

He even floated the idea of Elon Musk or Vivek Ramaswamy becoming House Speaker!

Watch what he had to say here for yourself:

NEW: Senator Mike Lee reveals Schumer, McConnell, Johnson and Jefferies secretly cooked up the spending bill over the past 85 days expecting to ‘sneak’ it through before the holidays.

Lee said this was a historic moment, crediting X for the bill’s failure.

Full transcript for those who prefer to read:

Jesse Watters:
Wait, so you’re saying… Hold on, just back up. You’re saying these four people—you’re saying Jeffrey, Johnson, McDonald…

Mike Lee:
Schumer, McDonald, Johnson, Jeffrey—the firm. They did this. Okay, McDonald and Schumer cooked this up for the last 85 days in secret, dropped it on everybody Wednesday, and this is where we are.

Yes, it has failed. It’s failed miserably because the American people are awake. They have access to X, they have access to Watters’ World, they have access to information and to apps that will help quickly digest this information.

This does not work. It’s a historic moment. It’s fallen apart. As a result, somebody’s going to have to lose their job over this. I don’t think the Speaker is going to remain in power—that’s my prediction.

I’m not in the House, but if I’m correct in that—and I think I am—we need bold new leadership, outside leadership, and I think it needs to be a Doge Speaker. It needs to be either Vivek Ramaswamy or it needs to be Elon Musk.

Look, I was over here a couple of weeks ago. House and Senate Republicans for a Doge, D-O-G-E, caucus meeting. I’ve never seen—we’re like herding cats, Republicans on Capitol Hill—I’ve never seen so much attention, so much respect for two people in our entire caucus, in the Senate and in the House.

Jesse Watters:
You’re officially nominating, right here on Jesse Watters’ Primetime, either Vivek or Elon to be House Speaker. It doesn’t have to be a politician; it could be anyone. Can they be Speaker? Do they want that job?

Mike Lee:
I don’t know. Look, I’m a little bit skeptical. Elon is busy—he’s got 54 companies that he’s running and trying to get to the moon. I suspect Vivek is a little bit more open to it than Elon. I’ll take either one of them. Vivek, Elon, if you’re watching, please sign up. America needs you.

Jesse Watters:
All right. Well, I don’t think Johnson likes you now. Next time you guys see each other walking through the halls of Congress, he’s probably going to kick you in the leg.

Mike Lee:
He is a good man. He’s a friend. He’s been a friend for a long time—a great person. He’s lost control of this. I don’t know how he can remain in power. We need Elon or Vivek as Speaker.
