"Show me a man that gets rich by being a politician, and I'll show you a crook." ― Harry Truman
Bernie isn’t wealthy as a politician. He’s wealthy as an author. Most of the GOP and many Dems however are wealthy from their lobbyist and PAC money.
@@Dead_pixelz_ Ah yes, the 6 figure "speaking fees" aren't clearly bribes. Pardon me.
@@ShaggyRogers1 who is bribing him for speaking fees? Universities? No you’re probably thinking of your senator that takes speaking fees from big oil or big finance or big tech. Odds are your senator is bought.
@@Dead_pixelz_ Your Senator is fine it's those evil Reps. Yup, your name is fitting.
@@Dead_pixelz_ Bernie sold 600,000 electronic copies of his book to the CCP. Didn't even have to print them.
Hillary Clinton as Secretary of State, purchased 100,000 copies of Obama's book and gave them to foreign gov.
Frankly put, I think millionaire politicians are a lot worse than businessmen who became billionaires.
Billionaire businessmen are orders of magnitude worse than people like Sanders, who seek better outcomes for everyone else instead of themselves.
I think so too
@@lindawilliams2995 especially when the accumulate wealth by writing books attacking rich people.
Meanwhile, the billionaires are literally buying politicians…
Agreed. Snakes gonna “snake” (billionaires with generational wealth). Politicians platform in a different “face”, get elected, swap faces after swearing oath, then serve the donor class. At least the billionaire club is open about being complete fucking pigs wanting to be Americas landlords. Politicians are the worm tongues that serve them under the guise of the American people making them even more deplorable…but let’s not stop tradition and instead keep voting the same pricks into office, it’s doing wonders for the shareholders.
Corruption is getting worst with the passing years in this country
Yes, but from what perspective do you see it? Because I see people corrupting Bernie Sanders the dude who hasn't changed his views, flipped sides or anything else his entire career. His money gains have been consistant and never jumping huge amounts. He is a genuniely kind human who wants the best for the U.S. and people smear that good nature the literal heart of the U.S. is INTEGRITY.... He hasn't wavered his once.
Because they just don't care anymore. Laws don't apply and they have no self respect, so basically WA is filled with a bunch of evil spoiled brats. MTG is one of the very few real people in Congress at the moment imo.
The Swamp protects itself - "D" or "R"!
@@markjaycox7524 agreed and America deserves better - much better!
And Bernie isn't corrupt it is Mullin with his billionaire campaign funders who is corrupt
We need TERM LIMITS !!!!!!
Goodbye crazy republicans.
@@blackout07blue Democrats as well. And I'm speaking as a former Democrat!
Or just do what the constitution says. The acting members of congress only get compensation based on their wages from their private jobs (Whether it is a minimum wage or a CEO). It states they only get paid in equal value to the amount they would have lost while actively preforming their duties. Otherwise, they are to be doing their private jobs like the rest of us. Only thing extra is the travel/medical expenses while in office.
@@zackiebullock3614 Members of the United States House of Representatives, United States Senate, Delegates, and the Resident Commissioner from Puerto Rico get paid $174,000/Year. That doesn't include whether or not they have a private business that they have back in their Home Districts, State, or Territory that they represent. That doesn't include any additional "perks" that are allowed for their Congressional job. In fact, one of the "perks" that they have are free air junkets flying on U.S. Air Force Transports for their "fact finding missions" abroad. I agree with "jorgebrew" for the need for "Term Limits." If it's good enough to "Term Limit" a President, then it's good enough for Members of Congress. People are getting sick and tired of 'Career Politicians.'
For every single elected position in Government.
When Bernie was Campaigning he got caught underpaying most of his staff, then to correct it he fired half of them to pay the other half a "living wage".
Don't forget about the college Bernie and wife defrauded for financial gains .....
Get the story correct. They were all paid the living wage for a regular days work. However, some did extra hours that pushed their per hour wage less than 15$ hence, once he found out, he put an end to people working extra hours so that everyone gets 15$ per hour.
@@rongee4433 LOL Tell me, how did Bernie defraud them and how did he gain financially. I followed the story and, even if there was fraud, it was Bernie's wife. Still not sure how the wife benefitted financially though(although there something about her that I do not like.). I guess if Bernie 4th cousin commits a crime, that's on Sanders too eh...
Hillary Clinton's campaign was found to be paying the women 2/3rds of what they paid the men.
You have to bring republicans back to reality. They are there because star bucks employees want the right to unionize... what does that have to do with BERNIE SANDERS pay or wealth. Its a diversion Mullin is in it for the company not the employees.
A senator saying he isn't rich, yet he has several houses including a fancy one in California, is just beyond me on the amount of hypocrisy people are willing to drink and accept.
Lol. Wut? Also, he didn’t say he wasn’t rich. He said he’s not worth $8m. But even if he is, it’s from books. And he fights for the poor and wants to raise his own taxes. Opposite of republicans.
Republicans: “You are only okay to have money if you don’t want to raise your taxes and you don’t want to help poor people!”
@@blackout07blue The timing of him buying homes right after dropping out of the presidential race does raise an eyebrow or two though, no?
@@LMarshall73 maybe. But I bet he wanted them but had to see how it went.
@@blackout07blue Citation? Nah, of course not. Bernie's wealth is estimated at 3-5 Million dollars. Secondly, the "wealth tax" that they're proposing is 90% of people making above $475k. That's not tax, that's theft. Even Sam Seder couldn't defend it.
If he's so much for higher taxes, why doesn't he donate his whole paycheck? Trump did when he was president. If he was such a great example, why isn't he setting it?
Socialists are all for everyone else paying but themselves. Parrots like you have nothing but empty platitudes and invectives, but no actual original thought or brain activity that isn't given to them by someone else.
Finally someone just calls Bernie out on his role of playing poor, but being rich...yet never having a job other than working for the Govt.
"Working" for the government. Good one, lol
Yeah no kidding a few years back I had seen a video of him getting into some high end sports car that to me looked like a Ferrari which would cost a couple hundred thousand dollars so yeah he's a poor old man like he says lol. He looked like a fool even getting into it which he could hardly do yet actually drive the car like it should be being he's half blind and his reflexes are so slow at his age he would probably kill himself just trying to drive it like the way it's ment .
They are no different than people we complain about on welfare. Only difference their welfare is on steroids.
He worked for 35 years becoming a politician, but cool propaganda
@@esSDeeThunder He failed at it. He's a crappy politician and a shitty human being. Hopefully he shuffles of this mortal coil very soon.
I was a teacher and to continue being a teacher, it was a must to pay and join the teachers union. What a crock!!!👍🤙
Until you need them.
Then they don't respond.
A socialist walks into a bar a yells, "free drinks for everyone........who's buying?"
Ahhhahaha good one!
Bernie Sanders: we should make the one pehcent buy our drinks! The one pehcent!
That is Bernie for sure he still has his recess money from grade school cheap is his middle name
😂😂😂🎉😂😂🎉
Im telling my socialist sister this
"If good intentions were all it takes, the Samaritans would not be so significant. They had money too." M. Thatcher
The point of the Good Samaritan was the Jews hated the Samaritans.
It’s a story in not judging people based on where they come from, and that you should help if someone needs help.
Also it was one of the VeggieTales tapes I wore out :3
Bernie says his not worth 8 million dollars but then he doesn't say what he is worth. “Show me a man that gets rich by being a politician, and I'll show you a crook.” President Harry S. Truman.
Lol. He got rich entirely by writing a couple books. Unlike your corrupt republicans. Or Mullin who inherited tens of millions from daddy.
Markwayne is rich because he taken government welfare and cheated others and under paid workers. Mullins never said what he was worth I guest this was not a dk measuring contest so money and wealth was not measured. Republicans are just grimy.
He “got rich” by successfully selling a couple books he’s written. Explain to me how that makes him a crook?
It's probably 7.99 million
@@MrRay2499 I have some land in the everglades I would like to sell you.
Truth hurts don't it Bernie!
czcams.com/video/_fZXRaS3r0I/video.html
Probably why Mullins seems to be in so much pain trying to string together words
@@TheeStrouds No. Mullin is correct. Bernie is making tons of money while touting socialism. Why don't the socialists call him out?
@@TheeStrouds he is 💯, Bernie is in fact lying his ass off
@@WhyHandleCZcams I don't really care about how much money he makes or his socialism. The topic was on unions. Mullins is distracting from that while also making petty false statements.
"I'm not worth $8,000,000! That is a lie. I'm worth $7,999,999!"
Hahahahahaha! Sounding like a Republican lol these politicians switch roles depending on what parties candidate is president
Hahaha excellent comment! So true. Bernie avoided the excellent point that was being made as always.
@@FiaskoEnfuego No, it sounds like a leftist hypocrite that once again demands the the plebs perform some action in the name of whatever the DNC decides.
He's worth well over 30 million.. he also has 3 homes.. he requires a private jet for his personal use... paid for by donations.. for which he pays no taxes.. So that 30 million is probably more like 50 million.
😂 😂 😂 too funny
Teachers Unions take this to a whole level
Plus they do so on taxpayer paid time, and lobby an employer who doesn't pay out of pocket for them.
They need to end an ket the parents do it
@@microcolonelTeachers absolutely pay out of their own pockets in dues. Also, there are so many politics involved you have to be a member to protect your rights. They will go after you more if you aren't a member. They are wonderful. The teachers union is paid with dues from the teachers!
What an absolutely AMAZING point made by this Senator! This NEEDED to be said, because Bernie Sanders became a millionaire BY WORKING IN CONGRESS FOR 28 YEARS!
That’s not all
Another GOP invention
@@heatherwilliams6558
shes confused
LOL....Bernie became a millionaire through graft and corruption during his tenure in the US Senate.....his salary did not but those 3 luxury houses he owns
one of the huge problems is our politicians becoming rich because of their position
No they extort the public with fear & sanders wife corrupted the govt funds to gain wealth! Research it the crunchy wife is as corrupt as Bernie IS!
This is true. Also keep in mind that I can't stand Bernie Sanders. But that's not how he became rich. Making bank off writing a book is admirable and has nothing to do with him using politics to gain an advantage. Corrupt senators like Nancy Pelosi, and Biden who make direct money from their political influence are the ones who should be strung up.
Strangely, after over 40 years in public service, Sanders only got wealthy after his book. About as wealthy as an early pro-sports career - a very low end in regards to US congressmen.
Bernie is literally fighting for workers to unionise, if he gets some money off of a single book deal because people like what he says, who the fuck cares? It doesn’t change his interests from being pro-worker like the rest of the senate and their pac money.
@Bernhard Schwarz Yes because of their positions. If they weren't in positions of power & authority their actions wouldn't matter to the companies & special interest groups who pay them to do their bidding. It's like the popular influences on social media who are paid by companies to promote & sell their products. Only the product being sold is power of the rest of us.
I haven't seen Bernie this upset since they told him he couldn't buy another house.
Ah, so he's not running in '24? 🤣👍
Hell, Hillary bought him the lake house...Bernie is so full of shit
Probably hasn't been this upset since he was kicked outta the hippie commune in '71 for being a serious distraction to the hard working, productive members.
I don't think he's been this upset since he was told he'd have to pay his campaign workers above minimum wage.
He’s just mad he won’t be able to renew his vows in Soviet Moscow this year.
When I lived in Florida, I made more money in a non union crane company than I did with a union crane company for the same job.
Way to go Sen Mullin! Hold Bernie up for what he is, a hypocrite.
Pure Republican projection….
LMFAO. Bernie crushed him and his lies. Hey take a look at your Ultra-MAGA leaders below. See who the criminals are.
Never has TFG looked more like a Mob Boss. Most if not all Mob Bosses prosecuted had far shorter lists of associates investigated, prosecuted, and convicted. Now MAGAs go drink that Kool-Aid and go look in a mirror.

• The company attached false diagnosis codes to patient records to increase reimbursement to the hospitals;
• Illegally claimed non-reimbursable marketing and advertising costs as community education;
• Billed the government for home health care visits for patient’s who did not qualify to receive them. Columbia/HCA fined 1.7 billion. Largest Health Care fine, ever, at that time. Resigned 7/97, 4 months after it went public. Company execs stated: If Scott had remained CEO, the entire chain could have been in jeopardy.
I think you meant parasite
@@elephantoflight3362, pointing out that a millionaire socialist Senator, who has made disparaging remarks about millionaires, is projecting???
I agree. Sanders is an awful human being.
Wow. I think somebody touched a very sensitive nerve there...
Yeah, he was afraid to let Bernie speak and had to interrupt him more than 10 times in 2 minutes. Talk about no confidence in his own perspective.
@@Alarik52 That 's just silly. If he had "no confidence in his own perspective" then he wouldn't be so adamant about stating it. 😐
@@maxwellsilver3115 Stating it, over the explanation of the target, is a method to deny the target speech to avoid revealing logical faults. Its a known tactic in argumentation. Yes, it's silly to think someone who is confident in their stance, will feel the need to constantly interrupt another stance. He' also very emotional about it, which is a method of playing the audience.
He not once held himself as a standard against Bernie.... why is that? Is he worth more than Bernie? Take a guess....
@@Alarik52 You give Mullin MUCH too much credit. He simply isn't bright enough to be so tactical in his argumentation.
Rich politicians are corrupt as how is it possible that these politicians become so rich.
You have all ready told us in the first sentance
I personally have and always will call out Hypocrites straight to their face it's always a good time seeing them freak out when they try to defend themselves right after and all you got to do is lean back smile straight at them and let em dig themselves a deeper hole😁
Come on, Mullin is not a hypocrite. He is proud to tell anyone who will listen that 1) he can beat you up, and 2) he is anti-union.
I was in the UAW for 25 years and I can say, the union never did jack for me, but take 2 hours pay per month for dues!
they just are a colletion racket
Now it's 2.5hr, don't forget they also get their chunk of profit sharing. I see our local leadership before shutdown, thanksgiving, and Christmas. At least they give out a t shirt every election year, when they come around asking for votes.
UAW is weak, we should shut it down. It's barely alive anymore, they failed to force the co.panies to stay in the States multiple times. That Union, is a fake and is not trying g at all, to force D.C. to keep Automotive jobs in USA.
That's not fair. They also lobbied against the politics of their members, using their money, to get laws passed they don't want. I remember I was an apprentice when the shady politics representative of the union came around to our class, to tell us what a bright idea it was to vote blue for the union, and on issues blue disagrees with us, like gun control or other issues, just donate our money to those causes. So take our money to do stuff we don't like, but it's ok because we can take more of our money to try and off-set what they spent. He said all this with a straight face, and nobody laughed. Every single union worker in America that doesn't have a Democrat bumper sticker, is a republican and just isn't allowed to have a red one.
AMEN. READ MY POST ABOUT MY EXPERIENCE AT FORD MAZDA IN FLAT ROCK.
the truth only bothers the guilty
Yeah Bernie sure got fired up huh
Freaking old cronie
is that why you’re always whining about the January 6 insurrection?
But yeah, Bernie fights for the poor and wants to raise his own taxes. Opposite of republicans. I’d let the Republican senator who inherited tens of millions of dollars lecture me too.
@ScootMagoot46 no that's why you guys are crying about tucker showing the video of what actually happened that completely destroys the Dems narrative.. nothing from the Jan 6 committee was the actual truth..all edited film and bullshit testimony from bullshit"witnesses"..even the secret service guys that were there with trump during the whole thing said the committee was lying and the woman's lies about trump trying to grab the wheel was just that, LIES!! But you fools were told to hate him and believe everything that they tell you to believe just like the sheep you are..I bet you still believe the Russia collusion garbage too huh? Or that the 2016 election was stolen..y'all are the original election deniers..
@@blackout07blue thats a peaceful protest wtf are you talking about 5/29 was an insurrection
Interesting how Bernie didn't go ahead and say how much he is worth just to clear the record.
How much are *you* worth? Just to clear the record.
@@liedersanger1 I haven't been a Senater accused of being corrupt yet, clear what record? Google says he he worth about 2-3 million so it isn't a secret if that is true. Unless that also is a made up figure to cover up that he really is worth 8 million and he doesn't want a sound bite of himself giving numbers.
@@liedersanger1 🤣💯
@@liedersanger1 if he's like most people, probably negative some amount.
He aint worth zip. His old lady has the money.
Union company summed up: Try to make a delivery of a key raw material at 11:59AM when lunch break starts at 12:00PM. Once you do that, you’ll see how they really think. Then do the same with a non union shop.
Was a member of IBEW for 26 years I recommend not joining a union they are nothing but money hungry people who take care of their friends and family first and could care less about the workers all the care about is dues ,if you forget to pay dues you are in a world of hurt.
I am glad your no longer a member so enjoy your scab wages with no benefits.
EVRAZ
Agree. I was in Steel Workers of America union and they would defend degenerates before they would productive union members.
Exactly!
I quit local 1031 millwrights 20 years ago they went crooked just like Joe Biden f.j.b
He unwittingly laid out how politics works in his example of the Unions and CEOs.
Forbes has him listed at $5,000,000. That's still about $20,000,000 than what he's worth...
Why don’t you ask Bernie about his wife’s embezzlement from UVM college as an accountant?
Exactly
Watching politicians debate anything that touches on morals or integrity is like watching the devil sit down with a circle of demons and talk about who's the bigger sinner. We pay these idiots to sit around and pantomime being adults. I was led to believe growing up that there were responsible adults supposedly running the show. Imagine my surprise upon reaching adulthood and finding this.
Amen to that!
When you were growing up there were adults in congress and none of them are still there. Well except for the hot check writers and that whole congressional bank scandal in the 80's. Some of those clowns had checking accounts overdrawn by tens of thousands of dollars never made deposit one! Taxpayers got the hook for that one too! I HAVE KEPT TRACK, I WISH I HAD KEPT PAPER WE DIDN'T HAVE COMPUTERS AND ELECTRONIC FILES AND RECORD KEEPING.
This is damn near quotable!
Our money pays them, but we never voted to give them pay. They voted to give it to themselves. It's not in the Constitution nor the Bill of Rights.
To me, that's theft.
Congress and Senate were never meant to be careers. They aren't intended to have this much control of our daily lives.
Spoken like a true Communist.
I’m retired but those in my profession were never allowed to form or join unions. To even casually mention fees amongst colleagues would bring the DOJ’s full weight down upon you. Since we’re listening in on the Senate HEALTH Committee I wonder if you can name my former profession.
Doctor/Nurse?
@@justkim9827 Winner Winner Chicken Dinner! Nurses are allowed to unionize - physicians CAN NOT!
Doctors get it from both sides. Unions don't want you as you are considered management or a "have" and by the nature of your job you are highly skilled and able to personally negotiate based upon those skills. Society can not have you guys unionized as we require you at your very best (unionization would corrode this), and doctors can not be forced to strike due to the essential nature of the profession. So yea, it's a challenging profession but trust me there are plenty every bit as tough
Donations from companies to senators means they will provide a different marketing and advocating for companies with the public. Slick. What speeches by politicians. Ugh
Millionaire Socialist
SMH
Millionaire Democratic Socialist….
Multi...
My guy, all love here, I'm not trying to win. But...there is a big philosophical economical and social difference between socialism, and democratic socialism. It is absolutely compatible in a socially democratic structure to be that AND a millionaire. He attacks asymmetrical wealth, in 2023 that means individuals with 10s of billions (not millions). People have different takes on life, whether its faith, economic policy etc...we're never going to get anywhere if we reduce someone else's position to simple inaccurate icons such as "socialism" or "communism".
When we drop precision of language it becomes alot easier to reductively show our standpoint is superior.
@@Ye7ia07 All due respect but socialism, no matter what word you add to the front of it, will never work. Even if we all vote to take Elon Musk's money it doesn't mean we earned it or deserve it. Bernie is a hypocrite when it comes to wealth. He proved that during his last presidential campaign. Socialism has never and will never work. The human condition will always turn socialism, no matter how well intended, into dictatorship and tyranny.
@Ye7ia07 absolute total hypocrisy. There is no difference except the Democratic Socialists will let you keep your land for a bit longer until it's needed.
Some people hate to have the truth pointed out to them.
Fact check him if you are so sure, go see the "public records"
The truth is that all those republicans that you see up there have 10x the money Bernie Sanders has. Because they take all corporate bribes and Starbucks is no different, I’m sure they got a big payday before this meeting
Great debate, Mr. Mullen
A constitutional right to form a union? What about the right not to be forced into a union?
“I started my company from nothing even tho I inherited it from my daddy”😂😂😂😂
Glad to be represented by Senator Mullin if this is how he’s going to call out the hypocrites.
Mullin is a liar and thief...
Mullins is an idiot, which makes me doubt your mental acuity.
Mullen straight up lied the entire time using strawman arguments and putting words in Bernie’s mouth
Million is another lying douchebag bought off by corporations. He is the probkem
Mullin inherited tens of millions of dollars from his daddy. Lol
And there is no worse hypocrite in Congress than Bernie Sanders!! Good for Oklahoma!!
Bernie said $8,000,000? NO!....I only have 7.9
Bernie is supposedly worth $3M and his wife $5M.
Nothing like a multi millionaire socialist lecturing everyone else.
That's how the 'fact checkers' operate.
It's $3 million. Which isn't crazy for someone with a decent job for 30 years. Everyone's acting like he's pelosi or something
His net worth is more than 7.9 mil how ever when the housing market crashes his net worth will be less
Most excellent.

“I’m not worth $8,000,000!” (My wife is worth $8,000,000).
Coudl you show us that info you have?
After the book his wife is worth less than him. His net worth has a range of 2.5 to 3mil, his wife is worth 1.5mil. It doesn't make a difference though, he has never said people should not have a lot of money.
I used to listen to Bernie Sanders I wasn’t a Berner but he said a lot of good things which I was in agreement of.
He railed against millionaires and billionaires until he gave up his soul to HLC then he stopped railing against millionaires and I would hear him speak against billionaires. Funny how that happened and happens 🤔🤔🤔
He literally went from endlessly using the phrase "millionaires and billionaires " before 2016 to "billionaires" after becoming a millionaire himself by 2017

Bernie might not be a millionaire, but he's really good at helping his wife coverup multiple controversies when she was a college president, including a massive real estate scam.
He's a millionaire based on the value of his assets, income, and earnings from books. If there was a real estate scam, show evidence.

It’s funny, because when he started to defend himself the republican just kept interrupting him while Bernie let him have the floor… all to to say non sequiters and ad hominens. Democratic socialism still uses capitalism, just means the most wealthy people on the planet have to pay more taxes. Boo hoo.
He is from a group that are the lowest liers on earth, but get very triggered when they are called what they are :).
Theres a difference from exploiting workers for money and publishing a book
There is a reason Sanders lost every time he ran.
No. Bernie Sanders won in 2020 through the wretched husk of Joe Biden. SInce 2020 the destruction of the USA has been a Bernie Sanders wet dream.
Yeah. Hilary fixed the primaries 😂
He was a four term mayor, the longest seated independent in Congress' history and has been in the Senate since 2006. He's won quite a bit. He's an important voice to the narrative of debates.
@@jman4204ever AOC is also a winner under that criteria, yet nobody with a straight face could call her a winner. When you are in a safe seat with idiots as constituents, you can 'win' all you want.

Yes snd no more pensions
Term limits for politicians won't mean a thing. All that'll entail is you'll get younger and dumber people in office
@@user-yf6zz3cl8i it’s s good start
@@user-yf6zz3cl8i yes it will I say two terms no pensions
Do you guys *really* want more AOC's in office? Cause that's all a term limit will provide
Government employee unions are ridiculous.
They're the worse union in the country, that's why the country is drowning in debt and yet they still want to raise the debt ceiling.
When I googled his net worth I get between $3 and $5 million for Bernie and about $3 million for his wife. So Mr Mullins is correct, together they have roughly $8 million
You can tell Bernie was lying, because his mouth was moving.
Bernie: "And I'm a stooge who let myself be cheated out of the nomination in 2016 and 2020."
It’s not the 80’s or 90’s being a multi millionaire isn’t as impressive as it used to be.

The best leader training I have ever received - and there was a lot - is no doubt the Union based courses. Of all of the courses they were the only ones that promoted cooperation between leadership and employees. All other courses took the viewpoint of the wiser towards the more stupid, which no doubt always leads directly to a catastrophe. All people are experts and all people need respect and if you have a perfect enterprise the leader is no more than a guy performing service to the employees 99% of the time. Rest of the time he/she is occupied about decisions on equal valued options as to turn either to the right or to the left on a given context, that you can't leave to a group of people, because it would take days and months to reach a decision. That's why I became an excellent leader that benefitted both the company owners and the workers.
it's great how all these PUBLIC SERVANTS have millions of dollars. edit: GET millions, they "get" millions, while in or "just out" of office.
Bernie made money selling books. Other congresspeople cheat the system by engaging in inside trading. I see the difference, but that's because I'm not an idiot.
President Trump is the ONLY President who, unlike OTHER Presidents who are NOW Millionaires, DID NOT BECOME a Millionaire WHILE IN office or IMMEDIATELY UPON LEAVING office.🙏♥️🇺🇲✌
Insider trading and the government-corporate pipeline. Both technically illegal, but exist in a class where laws obviously don’t apply
Have you looked up how McCarthy has gotten his money?
@@bennyb44875 have you looked how Nancy did or Joe or Fienstien there is a list on both sides and you won't find a republican argue about the corruption in DC its the left that needs to wake up to their corrupt party
Spitting straight facts. Dude literally spent his birthday in Russia lmfao
I think it was his honeymoon. But maybe his birthday was in there too.
He honeymooned there too.
Yes cause he one step from a Commie

What do implorers have to do with any of this? And why is that Marquyn Mullet guy so rude, interrupting others when his turn to speak was over?

He got called out and, like all hypocrites, he didn't like it.
If Starbucks is paying good money to their employees, a 401K option, etc., then why do they need to unionize? Unions can lobby to government officials then go into all kinds of demands. People like Bernie Sanders is not on the side of business. He's on the side of control which can come when some unions partner with political power players.
Dont the courts usually punish deadbeat fathers?
LOL you can always tell when a Den is lying, they get mad. My indignation will shut you up dammit!!!!! If you get mad, you lose period. If you get caught lying then you get mad and you lose period. So that means in this instance, Boy-ny lost big time, his finance status IS public record.

Greed is the problem. Bernie has several houses. He bought one near the coast, same with Obama and Clinton, so,... So much for being afraid of climate issues and water rising.
Not to mention Bernie flies private. I guess his carbon footprint doesn't matter.
im as conservative as they come but home & flood insurances ease fears of buying a home in a flood zone.... regardless of what the source would otherwise be for those fears, just sayin'.

I'm for union busting..work should be rewarded for productivity not some slacker who's been there 30 years..I know how it works
👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Or the color of their skin
Yes and no. It depends.
I've worked at my company for 17 years.
I'm ready to retire soon at age 62...the earliest I can...I will accept the lower social security because I'm no longer able to do the work of three or four young men like I used to.
I am no f***ing slacker.
But after 17 years... I only get paid a couple dollars more per hour than new workers.
I could complain. They haven't busted their asses for years as I did to earn what they make.
If we had had a union... I would be making far more... Not because I can outwork them now...but because I did my f***ing time.
It's not unfair to reward a long term dedicated employee that has earned their better income from years of hard work.
Union or no union.
But firing some old worker that has dedicated many years to make a company successful and to make his bosses wealthy...because some cowboy is younger...(and most likely will leave within two years for greener pastures)..and more able to do physical work?????
That is shameful. And I'd never work for such an asshole or recommend anyone else to work for them either.
Those are kind of people that give companies bad reputations.
And brand reputation...is everything.
What's with all these American Politicians over 80 😂😂
Mr. Schulz has the right to not agree to union wages, and let them strike (quit) and hire non-union workers who will take the job(s).
Bernie is like a character from the Simpsons.
Which one? Homer is more intelligent.
None of the characters in the Simpson were stupid enough for Comrade Bernie to copy.
We know that this hearing is way above your head to comprehend so you resort to mockery instead.
@Bernhard Schwarz Only Demoroids.

Bernie needs to pay his “fair share.” Which, in my estimate, is 80% of his net worth, plus 20% for the reparations that he owes the POC.
No its "fah shah"
Nobody owes POC anything. Get a job you mooch.
Show me in the Constitution where it says workers have a right to join a union, Senator Sanders. I'll wait.

Time for Bernie to take a dirt nap.
Unions are against the employees. You pay your dues and the leaders put companies first not employees.
An idiotic claim intended to marginalize unions seeking better outcomes for labor.
Facts!
Union "leaders' don't actually put companies first... they put themselves first.
Without the company you have no job. Also, who put the money, idea and time in to create the company. You don’t like where you work find another job.
@@cdrone4066 That is a money-grubbers narrative intended to normalize greed and marginalize those who actually do the work. Grow up.

why when the Republican guy says some stuff its dead silent. When the Socialist guy says "fake right wing stuff" the chamber bursts out laughing? Was it a real funny play on works? What tidbit of hilarity did I miss?
It is true he has three mansions worth millions and he made a couple million off his and wife’s books he’s a millionare probably 10 to 15 million
I'M A VERMONTER THAT'S ABSOLUTELY TRUE YOU SHOULD SEE HIS HOUSE AND PROPERTY ON LAKE CHAMPLAIN
there is a reason why he stopped saying "millionaires and billionaires" after he became a millionaire.
He still says it...why are you lying on the internet for thumbs up? That is weird bro.
He still says it. He still wants to tax himself at a much higher rate.
He doesn't say billionaires anymore either. He just bitches about Trump even though it was the Dems that screwed him.
If you are Bernie's age, and you've managed to work hard and be relatively good at what you do, then it's pretty darned normal to be a "millionaire" - if you're in the suburbs, you're firmly middle class. It's for this reason that Bernie's been talking about billionaires and not millionaires for quite some time now. I still say he's got more integrity in his little finger than every republican and 95% of democrats (also in the pocket of corporations and billionaires) all put together.
@@Kevin6059 he only became a millionaire when he sold out his followers.
Correction. Bernie made $1million on his book. How much did the wife make?
It was stated that Bernie's wife how to accumulated 8 million dollars. Bernie said he wasn't worth it while I agree is the subtlety that frames the argument
Unfortunately the video ended just before Senator Sanders had to excuse himself when his pants caught on fire. If anyone has that footage please let us know.
He may be wrong on some points about Bernie…HOWEVER Bernie used to complain about the millionaires but now he only complains about the billionaires.
Socialists only want those who make more then them to be taxed more.
Bernie used to tell the truth about illegal immigration diluting wages too. He's a typical con artist career politician.
I will say a millionaire isn't what it used to be, but I'm not defending Bernie Sanders. He's a lunatic.
Bernie is another useless opportunist that has bled this country dry
That's inflation for ya.
I don't think Mullin understands the point of a hearing. His opinion is not the purpose of the hearing.

I was in a union ILWU for about 6yrs before getting into the Department and my former union president was indicted and found guilty of stealing money from the union. He did go to federal prison. Later another union president for another local UPW was also convicted and sent to prison. This was the norm in my state for many years. Seems like these union presidents were doing a lot of things with members monies.
They all do the same thing. Union bosses always embezzling
Just like the CEO’s of companies
That’s how it works. I’ve yet to see a union operate on the up and up. Just like Socialism, they’ll make sure the upper echelon are well taken care up while the workers pay them to not work and make millions. It’s always been a scam.
@@Haulin-iron_eatin-sammiches Particularly Banks and Financial Institutions like Bear Stearns etc.
JUST like the politicians. Stealing tax money paid in by WE THE PEOPLE. Whatever is in the head bleeds down throughout the body.
It's ridiculous the spectacles that happen everyday on the floors and in the buildings of gov. Back and forth of accusation after accusation of corruption.
Keeps your mind off the fact that both of them are screwing you daily.
What's ridiculous is they're pointing out each other's corruption but nothing ever happens to any of them. The judicial system looks the other way and they get elected year after year despite blatant, overt corruption.
Yeah and Howard Schultz is enjoying it. One is fighting for ppl to have more pay and another is fighting to help the billionaire
because they are all corrupt. You could take quotes from dems criticizing trump appointments mix them together with criticisms from republicans on Biden appointments and think they all actually agree.
Its crazy how broken it has become, they are so busy trying to get good sound bites or serving the White House that actually governing is lost.
@@onatone 🤣Bernie wants communism not to help working people. FYI you don't get to be a billionaire or stay a billionaire without working, investing and employing others.
Well spoken.
Your history speaks loader than your words
Unions, like political parties, primarily strive to ensure their own existence, prosperity, and power at the expense of others.
Every institution inevitably becomes corrupt. That is the conclusion I have come as I get older.
As someone who’s worked in a union and worked outside of the union at the same job, I gotta say unions are just there to keep bad workers in their positions. That and to gather money and political actions. Our union email was nothing but vote for this person or vote for that person.
Bingo! They are all talk. Realistically they are way more trouble than they are worth.
The only way a union isn't better is right to work states where your union will negotiate the benefits and the company matches them and sells you on how they are bad.
bernie is funny as hell
Not at all he’s a joke for sure but that’s all
Bernie can't stand any criticism of his integrity oh this one is just golden
