America First!
The more they do the more obvious it is that we are the ones fighting Russia we cannot have this
Go to bed
We’re killing Russians at the cost of 0 American soldier lives. This is an absolute win. Eventually we would have to fight them anyways
@@deloresosborne2818 you have Been on this platform for one year where have you been? sleeping? why do you want me to go to bed?
@@deloresosborne2818 I still haven’t gone to bed is that OK?
Well done 👍
They can’t stand truth, you should know that.
Military/Industrial Compex. Abandon billions of dollers of equipment in Afghanistan and billions around the world suppoorting who knows whom. No wonder we are short of munitions. Who is making tons of $$$$$$$$?
If Tom Cotton ever runs for president, his campaign slogan would be "PICK COTTON! 😊
lmfao
Geez this Senator Cotton talks like a robot
@@legion1630 politicians are out of their cotton-pickin minds 😵💫
@@legion1630 He sounds like most of the senior officers I worked for in the Army -- dead serious and straight to the point.
He’d have a great chance of being elected if he gets a septum piercing, a face tattoo and becomes a non-binary. Then 81 million voters will win him the election.
Get us out of that mess.
😮😂😂😂😂
These are not defensive weapons. These are all offensive weapons. We didn’t sign up for a offensive .
There really is no such things as defensive or offensive weapons. In war, all weapons are used in both ways.
@@thomassenbart not these I am Pryor service so you don’t need to tell me about weapons I also have a secret clearance so I probably know a little more than you do
@@benvineyard3😂
@benvineyard7649 your ego will kill you one day.
@@thomassenbart case and point, Russian S-300 missiles being used as strike platforms.
Completely distracted by that cute little kid. I’m guessing that’s Tom Cotton’s son. How adorable that he was getting excited about his questions. Those faces he was making, like “You’re reading those questions so good dad. Way to go!” 😊
I didn't know a giraffe could father a human child! ❤
Tom Cotton old times there are not forgotten! 😂😂😂😂
Look away look away Dixieland.
I WANT TO GO HOME! YOU TELL THE JOINT CHIEFS I WANT TO GO HOME NOW!
“These weapons are different in the sense of the environment that they used”
…so they’re exactly the same. 😅
THIS IS WHAT HAPPENS WHEN THE MILITARY TAKES OVER THE MOST POWERFUL NATION ON EARTH.... DISASTER.
I applaud Tom Cotton for being very friendly and respectful during this exchange. More of this please!
It's sadly become routine for MAGA Republicans to needlessly berate Democratic appointees for soundbites.
Our money does not need to go to Ukraine!
munitions personnel do NOT have enough personnel to do the job. MCA is a thing now, more responsibility, no additional pay to accomplish 4 other people’s jobs. enlisted supervision only look out for their own personal gain and not their people they “lead”.
“the yes” man is promoted, not the one who is knowledgeable or a hard charger, they are actually looked at as a threat. The AF isn’t the same anymore.
Very unprofessional from Sen. Cotton to bring his kid on this serious matter.
@janicknorman9396 sometimes you have to get personal to get your point across.
I agree, very unprofessional and VERY ODD
So what?
@augustusb3501 It's funny and sad that when Republicans say something like what representative Cotton said, it's unprofessional and disrespectful, but when democrats do the exact same thing or something relatively similar....nobody says a word....hmmmm. partisan or bias anyone 🤔 I mean, call it both ways.
Americans don't care if he has his child there!! Leave the children alone!!
Doesn't matter if Gen Brown is the most talented and professional person for the job or not. He is being blocked by Sen. Tommy Tuberville of Alabama for political reasons. For that reason this conformation hearing is a complete waist of time.
Why are children present?
It is pretty simple. While we might be low on certain munitions we have more for 2 wars. Not three. Simple as that. We have more capable aspects in munitions then the other 2 countries. We can build anything if we have the executive and legislative green light to build. We can build at a cheaper rate if we are at war and issue certain legal and law acts to procure certain munitions
“General, do we have too many whyte officers in the Air Force?” What kind of woke azz question is that? The answer is no, there could never be too many.
I was about to say, what kind of stupid ass question is that? Glad someone else has sense.
idk, there is such a thing as too many chiefs and not enough Indians.
he asked because the general himself said that.
That means also some of these companies that are coming up making weapons and planes they're receiving some of this through incorrect knowledge of distance they've understood this in license out to a spread value
How is it okay to discuss "Munitions Shortages", without addressing the $87 BILLION in Ordinance abandoned in #Afghanistan?
More purchases to give 10% to The Big Guy?
Brown is all about equity. No thanks.
wow - must be a confederate euro
Whenever someone's black you say that , fix your biases he's beyond qualified
@@yalemokgoba378 get real. I feel the same about Milley. You keep showing your racism.
@@goodnews6823 yeah right after the fact 🙃 you're racist I don't know who you're trying to fool , he's the boss now whether you like it or not. Get used to having black bosses.
Cotton? Say no more! 😂
A pair of pansies.
They even signal to each other at the very beginning.
The dod, the tail wagging the dog the entire us Corp of American Government must be permently closed
Otay buckwheat!
Did you hear him help us plan? I mean them plan
No one in the upper ranks seems to be accountable or lacking the basic skills tp perform their responsivities. Leaving Afghanistan chaos should have been part of a many Military Trails and appropriate action taken including all the way to the White House President and his Cabinet. Sickens to be to see what has happened to our Military. Rank and File are really protecting us without any help from the politized upper ranks.
Wow... Senator Cotton sounded like a well prepared and reasonable member of Congress who's genuinely interested in both policy and administration-- you know what that means?!?!? He'll be attacked as woke.
The principal adviser to the president doesn't know if he's out of Ammunition.
With advisers like that, can you blame the president for not knowing anything at all? So then how can you expect the american people to know anything at all.
He sounds just like a politician
Meth half vodka
Who's the cute kid? Are they are having this intense very important discourse in this cute little kid is hanging out! Funny!
Hope this guy is a better military commander than Milley was
He's no different than Milley.
I want you to think about this see how long it takes you to react they've no disc for a very very long time now we have children sitting there staying sick cuz all these computers don't work inside themselves and they're laid up in hospitals and running really powerful strong forms of equipment and not a single one of them for me's companies are sitting inside these hospitals it'd have been different if they'd have been inside there but they wasn't
The highest ranking drinky girl ever
Selecting Air Force is myopic. Understanding World Economic would point to Sea Lanes and the High Seas Treaty. Probably should get a sleepy (non-woke) Navy.
Probaly 🤔 some component is. Production process is Made in China 🇨🇳 or oter Contry 🗺️
Navy SEALs you allow them to ring a bell You're qualification teacher ought to be the one leading them into their what cuz that's what they're seeing now because they can't get qualified past that bill You're supposed to tear up not tear out
In my you're teaching the side of them understand and failure I thought you was against that so in that battlefield that hesitantness is a succession of your failures your unmotivational speeches nominating their girlfriends in another man's life
Tom cotton for head of FBI
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
FBI has no future.
Ask Wray, he killed the job
Is that Cottons son next to him?
This just in: My wife calls my lil dinger "Jeremy Piven"
That is all. You're welcome in advance.
who's the cute kid? Tom's kid?
Yeah, what’s that goofy kid even doing there, babysitter was all booked up that day?
Nice kid ❤️
GOP so many questions give the General your support. No more backward thinking
Time for thinking ahead
The world has changed
So very much
From what it used to be
There is so much hatred. GOP hate peace, Military & law enforcement.
STOP THESE ATTACKS ON ME WITH THESE BLACK VOODOO POWER PLAY! I CANT TAKE THIS SHIT ANY MORE@
Thought y'all was more prepared than that Y'all showed up with empty questions empty analogies of paperwork thinking you can just outwit somebody to really out with somebody is to bring an honesty with the forms of everything going wrong to going correct but you have no paperwork so you was mentally unprepared all of you your physical capabilities lacking behind accepting ratios of not teaching above and beyond them delegating up and down only certain people can't teach that far can you
everything you just said is an accurate description of your comment, or more aptly your attempt to comment!
Tom should help Comer Simpson find a credible witness. I would suggest no Chinese spies this time.
I’m blown away that we hang our dirty laundry out for our enemies to see! 👺
You can't join the Air Force unless you have an High IQ, Since the Air Corps.
Quite frankly I'd love to ask Tom call Cotton a simple question and it's general a simple question if we have been manufacturing weapons of Mass destructions for multiple years don't you think we'd have it down pat by now and why don't we have the capability of manufacturing as much military hardware as we need for a cheaper damn price because quite frankly the more that you make a one damn thing everything drops in that category
