This is the government our founders warned us about.
Oh no, it isn't.
No Dick Durbin is what the forefathers warned us about
And gave us our2nd amendment for!!!
What is it about Illinois?
@@michellesmith5436Totally corrupt We need a forensic audit We are not happy in Illinois These Dems are out of control and are a dictatorship
Term Limits must be enacted immediately. Put these overpaid senators out to pasture because they don't do sh... for the people.
Term limits will NEVER HAPPEN.
They would be firing themselves
Loosing careers, benefits, name recognition, TV time, book tours, blah blah blah.
Term limits want fix this ! This is an Authoritarian Regime at work against We The People ! When a democrat controlled committee refuses to allow senators from across the isle to have their voices heard on these grossly far left judges ! These two new judges are exactly like the one that voted to free juicy smolette !! Until the American People wake up we’re SCREWED !! Our country is GONE !
Republicans are put that law in
@@ula6222 That's the problem with our country,we have forgot that we are their boss. We implement the rules and laws that they will follow. That it is why every person must study the forgotten history of our constitution. There needs to be a constitutional class in every school
in this nation.
Reduce there pay to $1 like they did others
I truly am amazed that this is tolerated. In-our-face corruption.
And the long term republicans just continue allowing it to happen. Dems would have gotten up and walked out if the situation was reversed.
It's not corruption. The ones objecting missed the 2 hearings when the issues were discussed. Then on the day of the vote they showed up and cried about it. They never get anything accomplished because all they do is make spectacles of themselves.
Is he suffering from dementia or Parkinson's or something like that?.
@@savinaking8637 some type of dementia. Oh wait, are you talking about Joe or Dick Durban. Don't know about Dick but Joe certainly is!
@@savinaking8637 He is suffering from arrogance mixed with liberalism and a hatred for the Constitution.
Is totally unconstitutional. How on earth are we going to stop these crazies
We all know how. The question is when it is appropriate and supported by the great majority.
@samuelswiden it'll never happen, the only group capable of doing it, with a track record of doing it and succeeding have been taught for atleast the last 2 generations to hate themselves and God.
Remember Senator McConnell denying Obama a Supreme Court nominee?
@@AmonAnon-vw3hr well it is not that they are taught to hate God. It is the folks going to church that have made God and Christ worthless. In the US our churches have taken a political side that actively works against everything that Christ said to do. You can't worship Mammon and God. You either share your riches or you put razor wire to keep out refugees....and refugees of our own making.
Who are you referring to? who is the Jew in question@@91dodgespiritrt
80% of these senators if not all of them need to resign , they’re a disgrace to America and the constitution .
Oh, I don’t believe it is THAT high.
Probably 50/50
In 2017 Sen Grassly (R) dumped the "blue slip" tradition. Both Ds and Rs have been dropping rules that require cooperation (60 votes to end filibuster) for 15 years. McConnell not holding a hearing for nominated Garland ("we need wait for the next election in 10 months" - in 2016), then rushing Comet-Barret hearing n vote (a mere 2 months before 2020 election), was dishonest at best; political chicanery.
Start with Cronyn and Kennedy.
@@adrienneanderson-smith2257if you only cut out 50% of the cancer. You still have 50% of cancer.
Only on the Democrat side are they totally corrupt.
This is what a tyrannical government looks like !
" WHEN GOVERNMENT BECOMES TYRANNY, REBELLION BECOMES
DUTY "
More like "this is what happens when you don't bother showing up for work several days in a row."
It's not Durbin's fault the Republicans couldn't be bothered to arrive for the previous two SUPER IMPORTANT (according to that one guy) meetings.
Maybe if they'd actually bother showing up for work once in a while the US Government could get shit done, but no, Republicans only know how to delay and distract these days.
You gotta go back to the previous senate when republicons were cramming down fanatical SCOTUS nominations to see that. Democrats are playing by the rules. The only tyranny being attempted here is by the minority republicons.
Nah, this is what happens when people ignore their scheduled committee meetings, then complain that they missed 2 debates but DEMAND to be heard....nope, this has been debated, you missed the boat, it is time to vote.
Nope not really. Get your Orange Jesus back on the top of the mountain and then you will have the dictatorship you are imagining.
Unbelievable how corruption is running rampant
Revolt
This is going to go bad soon..... These scumbag crooked people !!!!!! When and how can we the people put a stop to this?!?!? 🤮🤮🤮
This is a pure example of why America is failing
Explain how. Or did you hear your parent say that ??
@tabernaclejones6115 Because the white man didn't allow a woman to speak.
“Just going on with it” that slipped out.
04:22 it's the GOP who started this trend back in 2005/2006 during immigration reform debate. .. back then all the criminal mainstream media(??) like CNN, FOX,etc. labeled "A nation divided" to get viewerships to kill the immigration reform. ... indeed a nation got dived to the point of no returning.
🎯
This is Disturbing.... sounds like Durbin & any other so called Gov officials that govern like this need to be expelled/replaced.
Hard to watch right? Takes me back to when the GOP was in control of the Senate. Good on Durbin for playing the game the GOP setup for themselves.
And the GOP cowards sat there whining instead of acting on the threat of denying the required quorum. Wonder why the RNC can't get donations from anyone but the corrupt lobbyists.
Tooberville?
ASAP
@@Jeff-hw6xt I seem to remember a Mr. Harry Reid that did something similar that brought on majority vote for confirmation of SC Justices. Don't try and say that Republicans did this first. Republicans follow the precedent set be Democrats.
They can't figure out why we the people loathe and dispise the federal government.
They know, they just dont care. They know we can't do a thing about it. All is not as it seems. obama is still in power and he is an enemy of this nation. He was put in place to take us down and we are watching it happen with our own eyes. They are throwing the elderly out of state run housing and it is being given to our muslim enemies who are crossing our borders unchecked. People had better wake up and turn to our Creator because He truly is our only hope at this late date. He is allowing this because we have basically thrown Him out of this nation. I pray He will have mercy on those of us who see what is happening and trust Him to help us through it.
The current regime thinks we are so dumb and backwards that we believe every lie that oozes from their pores. Therefore we worship the ground they stumbled down!
Do your feelings have anything to do with the way trump views the government?
Republicans want their chance to whine like little snowflakes first, and then lose the vote, then complain until the next vote.
It's a tradition lol.
@@nancyosullivan719Oh but but but Trump😂😂😂
I can't believe that this is happening in the US!
Specifically?
@@fractal_nature Yes, because I grew up looking up to the US admiring its democracy and freedom of speech, it's a huge sad schock...
Were you complaining when the Republicans did the exact same thing in Trump’s term? The Republicans set the precedent which the Democratic Party is now following. You reap what you sow.
@@Tamingsouls no, he's asking you to please specify what you are referring to - tell us what it is that you can't believe
@@rocketsalad I've always looked up to the US in terms of democracy and culture, such shit happens in our governments but I've never expected it from the US, the entire world became disappointing...
What a sorry state our government has become!!!!
How many times do they need to debate this nomination? They had two already and it was out of committee. All these yucks want to do is delay and deny any Democratic judicial nomination. Go back and watch republicons deny any debate for their judicial nominations when they were in power.
ATOTALFREAKINGMESS!!
It is not our government when our elections are rigged.
thank the democrats, the left, lamestream media and spinless republicans
The democratic party is trying to pack the court
Isn't Durbin the one who blocked the request for the flight list to a particular island?
Tuberville?
Yes he is.
YES!
Yea he is!!
He's on the list !
Our brave soldiers gave their lives for this sad display of governing
God help us
🇺🇸
This is precisely why our country is so messed up !
This is an excellent example of why we need term limits.
My question is: Why didn't they speak at either of the two previous mtg.s? Was there some valid, compelling reason, or was the reason simple "petulance"? Was it merely a way to deny quorum?
How about age limits.... and term limits.
It is called "voting". You might want to look it up, comrade.
@@ITOFishingCharters How about the republicans show up for work. You people who voted for the republican senators should call and ask why they didn’t show up when they had the chance to. Don’t like republican bs, vote blue. Maybe you republican politicians should worry about your constituents instead of your twitter feed.
We need accountability
Dick Durbin definitely lives up to his first name
@@jetme8815 Trump did everything he said. Democrats said he would start a war too...he stopped them. Biden started two and tripled the price of everything.
I’m glad Mr. Durbin is putting his first name in their mouth.😂
@@king1maduro, like your 2 daddies do with you.
How so? Republican senators had two previous sessions to voice their opinions...they failed to do so. Durbin just told them enough. Vote blue
Hope he eats a whole satchel of Richards.
Don't back down. Great job.
This is a prime example of how an obnoxious JEW acts with power.
Durbin needs to go
This should be shown on National news, What a disgrace
The disgrace was when Grassley and McConnell did it a few years back to shove justices and judges down the throats of the democrats. This is just using precedence now. The same rules apply to both parties.
Guaranteed it won't be.
It's been on C-span. One of the c-span channels is mostly just a feed of the House chambers committee meetings. It is usually lots of empty seats.
This particular committee meeting was the same, not much attendance during debate days, then people showed up late, and got butt-hurt that they couldn't delay the vote for THEIR convenience.
@@antiquegirl6505 and no one watches c-span
@@mommadeb49 I guess that makes me nobody....but I am NOT uninformed and believing the short edited clips that generate ALL the outrage.
Maybe a few more people should watch C-span for a little while, they might be less likely to believe the edited BS so easily.
This is a real eye-opener. I wish every citizen could watch this.
Right after they watch the attack on the capital. Nothing like a little context and perspective, right Bro?
We have been watching whenever the republicans want to leave they couldn't care less even if it was in session they just walk out. Unless it was something that wanted or had to vote on from any democrat republican walked . Good for the democrats about time . Let republicans have a fit the snakes😈😈🤣🤣
Republicans did it first. Those senators who ask to speak missed two debates and now asking to speak. This is stalling tac tics that they use. Research before you speak.
@@jetme8815 Given that there was no "attack on the capital"... yep.
A lot of people will it was a push notification on my phone.
Time for the people to speak
This is sick......
Wow. Our Congress is an absolute disaster.
Well this is in Congress so... You could at least start by identifying the right group.. durban's doing a great thing
And why are you cheering on Lindsey Graham and all this? Please explain that to me. You know the man who's an unindicted co-conspirator that actively aided in embedded and trying to destroy our country and committing trees and for a failed ex-president fraud and rapist
Forbes is a Chinese propaganda rag that should be sued until they don't exist
The finest Congress Zionist money can buy. The irony is we give them the money to do it.

Yeah ok
You mean all those REPUBLICONS?!?!? Rich real rich mfers
The GOP has 2 previous meetings in which to speak. They skipped those.
Embarrassed in IL & grieving the loss of representation in the Senate! There are sooo many union members, all the gov. contractors, teachers, and the minority voters are Paid to wash away Republican votes! Durbin sets a new precedent in the Senate by Refusing to let Republicans speak on these nominations for Federal Judges!
We are going down fast😢
This is America, absolutely shocking. What is going on over there.
Stolen elections have consequences.
Our congress is big joke! These power hungry jerks need to be voted out. They no longer represent the people.
Look at the little adult child running back n forth whispering in in that old mans ear.
you mean ignore Dominion dominance, Dominium got paid to install these m.r.s
Durbin you are showing this country who you are!!!
I agree! The DEMs need to vote a few of their people out too.
@@Arturo-lapaz Really? You have proof of that? Because if you do, I’m gonna be as outraged as you.
Wow, just wow. This government just gets worse and worse.
One corrupt Senator at a time. The New Woerld Order has installed their miinions and now with a super majority (includes RINOs) can be brazen enough to show it.
"You ain't seen nuthin' yet!" Just wait 'til the next Blue Wave resulting from fraudulent ballots!
That lady calling for votes when the people were asking to speak is annoying! 😡
UNCONSTITUTIONAL
What’s wild is we are all on the same team. working against each other. Smfh @ America
Disgraceful. The fact that this occurred in public, can you imagine what goes on behind closed doors? We are screwed.
Behind closed doors the Republican senators skipped the 2 debate sessions and then showed up for role call to try to disrupt it. We are doing very good right now. There are no rules to the Republicans - they can deny Obama a supreme court pick because it's the last year of his term and then rush through Trumps pick with even less time on his last term than Obama had. It's over for them - they broke every rule and now I support Dems doing the same - except they aren't - like I said up top the Reps skipped out on both debate sessions.
Do you expect anything else from the Left?
It wasn't Trumps last term it was the end of his first, obamas approval rating had been rapidly plummeting so his pick would've been tainted, saved you lefties a little grief if he appointed a hack like Garland, when the reps would've trashed everything he did, you should embrace the positive. Lol
@@ColinPoole Obviously these commentors saying how bad Dick Durbin is DID NOT watch the entire session!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I Thank You, @ColinPoole!

Your "good" Senators support an insurrectionist.
Lol, the Republicans made this allowable and did it it on a number of occasions but don't like it when Democrats do the same thing
Another example of why our government has so many problems with making meaningful, positive changes
Yes, Republicans trying to block court nominations when they are in the minority is a problem.
Democrats manage, all the same.
We're watching an inserted government collapse before our very eyes.
They've managed to intentionally destroy our nation.
Remove Him now for not following policy…
Unbelievable!!! 🤬
I hope that the room is sanitised after what happened.
Wow, Dick Durbin is living up to his first name!
I bet you didn't even know what you are talking about. They missed the 2 hearing prior and they wanted to speak out now to stall the confirmation of judges. Republicans did far worse when they were in control.
I have never seen such a mess before. America , we have actually Traitors sitting in this Committee.

The American people should be absolutely appalled at the ridiculous waste of OUR time by a bunch of people who just want to listen to themselves.

You would not believe this is you didn't see it with your own eyes. Sickening.
Who the hell is Durbin that he can deny the people’s representatives voice?
To just go along with it is exactly what is wrong with America 😢😢😢
I believe he has been in Washington DC for about 41 years. (1982 - present) Durbin is a lawyer and politician, the senior US senator (Democrat) Illinois. Since 1997. In his fifth (6 year) Senate term and has served as the Senate Democratic whip since 2005 and as the Senate majority whip since 2021 Earlier he was a 7 (2 year) term for Rep in Congress. Which he won by 1,400-votes due to gerrymandering district lines. He said he would send "a message to Washington and to President Reagan that our economic policies are not working."
Because he is a CORRUPT senator from Illinois…. Illinois is so full of Corruption!!!
They chose not to speak at two previous sessions. They can now speak in front of the full Senate. They also chose not to vote in this session.
@@WpnsMechbullshit. They are asking to speak and you say they choose not to speak are you kidding me. 😂
Anyone else tired? Angry? Feel disguested with what these "leaders" are doing to our country??
Yep
I could go well beyond that we have been taken over by Oduma.
But WaPo tells us trump is a dictator.

@@Ancaladar100you too precious neighbor of ours ..from Ca the new 3rd world tx to Democrats❤we feel your pain with Castro jr Trudeau

TERM LIMITS - get them all out of there.
Term Limits are definitely needed. This is a disgrace and an embarrassment to our country. RESIGN! Our Founders are rolling over in their graves!
8yrs max.
The founding fathers warned us, A man will come along and be a loyal friend to the russians, North korea, And that man will want to be a forever president And not honor the constitution.. And he will love the uneducated ,And the uneducated will love him. That's what they warned us about..
I disagree. We have the power to vote them out. It was made that way it should stay that way. There are too many good politicians that know the laws and constitution that we will lose. Most people also have problems with the ones that aren't in their state or district anyway, and you vote for who represents you. Like Dick Durbin is a Dick but everyone in Illinois is a dick. My uncle is from Chicago; I'm trying to sound mean because do love the guy and glad he's my uncle, but he's a dick.
@@jakeg3126 Yeah but the problem is MAGA can't be trusted with the constitution..
Collectively they are ancient, stuck in their own darn ways, this is about the people of America, and you deny all rights to every person who has not had a chance to speak? As close to SAYING I CAN SHUT YOU UP.
Wow! I would not have believed this if I hadn't seen it. Thank you, Forbes.
Where were all those GOP senators in those empty Republican chairs? They knew this committee was being held and yet most are gone. Why did the Democrats show up but not the majority of the GOP? I guess it wasn't important to the GOP party.
Tit for tat both parties have gross dirty tactics to push or defend their agendas in the legislative branch. A 4 year president shouldn't have 3 judges on the supreme court nevermind mcconells election year bullcrap that didn't apply when it was their turn. i would say the republicans are better at playing dirty and overwhelming video evidence over many years to prove that. Its like your people when trump got flicked off by bill burrs wife stop being fing crybaby hypocrites.
It’s all stall tactics.
Now do that to Jan 6th.
You saw it, but did you listen to it? This is the third meeting by this committee on these nominees. The GOP had two other opportunities to speak and chose not to show up. The party of personal responsibility needs to take some. This is just more stall tactics to delay these nominations that are going to happen, whether they like it or not. Next time, GOP, show up to work.
Term limits, wage limits, random drug test by third party and investigations/background checks every year in office for all! For all politicians, period!
Absolutely, these people are government employees our taxes pay their salaries and once they grab power they will not relinquish it until as they say "they pry it from my cold ,dead hands"
You are correct.
Spot on!!!
Only politicians ?
Drug tests?? You want us to have zero politicians??
The political system in this country is totally dysfunctional. What a disaster.
Exactly what our enemies, who have infiltrated our political system, want to happen, for us to implode from within!
Dems. Are doing this.god job voters.😅😂
Or maybe if the Republicans would get off their lazy ass and come to these hearings in this committee that they find to be so important, they would’ve had their voice heard. Let’s say you were a teacher, and you had a student who refused to show up to class to learn the content, but when they came on the day of the test they claimed that the class shouldn’t take it because they didn’t know anything about topic. Would you say “Okay class forget the test, we’re gonna teach the same thing we already taught again because this guy wasn’t here,” or are you going to say, “Sucks to be you,” and make them take the test anyways. This is what the Republicans did. Like a teacher with lesson plans, the committee has a very strict schedule of things it needs to do on any given day. If the Republicans want to act like the stuck up idiots they are and boycott their chance to speak, they can do that, but just like in a classroom, everyone else is going to move on with or without them.
@@AndrewBartling-zw9jwthis is just another example of rules for thee, but not for me. This is just regular business for Democrats.
Exactly. Everyone does it. But these Republicans are trying to get sympathy votes and draw outrage from their constituents. The Democrats do it as well, but they acknowledge that when they boycott the debate, they are giving up their right to debate it. These are Republicans who decided not to show up and wanted to delay the process by whining about how they weren’t here the day of the debate when they did that by choice.
And yet nothing will become of this.
Say no on the vote then .
People start voting these bad people out of our government.
Really what you need to do is stop expecting the government to solve what are actually fundamental social and cutlural problems.
Caused by this current government@@megaxenu753
the problem is we the people are allowing this crap,
People are under a satanic mind control spell.
The elections are crooked.
Term limits a must. I would vote no on everyone they are trying to push through. No on every single one.
👍👍👍👍👍
I actually agree with you on term limits. I think that should go for the Supreme court too.
No need for us to wait on these dorks to come up with rules that might restrict themselves. That would be an exercise of futility. We just have to not vote for any one that is an incumbent. We, the people, can perform that task easily.
If you liked the person, let them go home to their families.If they were a poor politician, then they can leave. The main issue is that these goobers think that it is okay to stop doing their job for an entire year, just to campaign that they need to keep that job. At a minimum, that is a 16.6% loss (1year campaign/6year term for senators) of political work to help the people. Not to mention all the vacation time, holiday, and when things get real easy government shutdowns. It's supposed to be 3 branches of government in our capitol, not 3 rings of clowns in a circus tent.

Wow, as an Australian its sad to see such an old democratic system crumble like this....
Dick durbin needs to be removed
Why don't the GOP senators just get up and leave and deny a quorum for the committee to vote?
That was what was wondering, also.
Because then they might affect some change. Republicans are there to rock the boat but are damn sure not to get any water inside.
It's political theater. The Republicans need to get a spine. Action over outrage dammit!
I am not a US citizen, but what I see here is very similar to what happens in other Western democracy parliaments, where the Right/Conservatives/Reps ... think that those in the other side plays nice with the same rules as them. This may have been true in the past where there was a respect for tacit consensus and gentlemen agreements ... but they have decided to blow all these formalities and go ruthlessly towards their political aims.
Excellent suggestion. It was probably too late, as they were already there. DICK(less) Durbin would vote anyway, and just deny them to even vote. We need to PRAY HIM OUT.
they are spineless
Dick Durbin blocked the Epstien client list subpoena put forth by Senator Blackburn as well. What does that tell you about Dick?
That his first name fits
He needs.a permanent vacation at the spa 💖🇺🇸
He’s a criminal😡🤮
He’s probably right behind Clinton on the flight logs. Every d rat is on the list and all the rhinos,that’s why they are hiding the log.
Probably why he wont' let her speak now.
So these people want to speak. Where were they? In the last 2 committees, they did not feel like coming. Did they have important want to interrupt?
beginning to interrupt this meeting. Are these the same people that voted for Trump?
I demand to speak also!!! Need my day in court. Why don't someone tell me what in hell is the issue????
Wonder how these "elected officials" act when the cameras aren't on. If any of us were as ineffective at our jobs, we'd be unemployed.
Oh no, the cameras were on. The chair called the vote after flight logs were brought up. I watched live, couldn't believe my ears.
This is one action that gives great cause to citizens not to trust their government.
oh, boohoo... These Republicans have already had their opportunity to speak and now they're playing games, trying to slow the process. What's shameful is how, when they were in the majority, Republicans prevented Democrats from speaking altogether. Henny-Penny Conservatives weren't saying the sky was falling then!

In 2017 Sen Grassly (R) dumped the "blue slip" tradition. Both Ds and Rs have been dropping rules that require cooperation (60 votes to end filibuster) for 15 years. McConnell not holding a hearing for nominated Garland ("we need wait for the next election in 10 months" - in 2016), then rushing Comet-Barret hearing n vote (a mere 2 months before 2020 election), was dishonest at best; political chicanery.
Our country continues to suffer as long as Don the Con is able to conduct hate rallies disguised as "campaigning", while he claims that prosecuting him for his crimes, and attempted coup, are somehow "election interference". 🤨
That's right! The most important thing we can do for the country we love is to stop voting for Republicans! It's the only way to clean up the rot! And people need to see it for themselves! Thank you for posting this video. Disrupting committee business after debate has been concluded (by both sides, as in this case) is nothing more than plain old cheating - the only thing that Republicans really excel at.
@@henrybutchy3242 - But you do admit we dodged a bullet keeping Garland off supreme court! Garland totally unqualified for any government position.
@@henrybutchy3242 Yep! Sucks to be on the receiving end of this b.s. but these are the rules GOP wanted. Now they got'em.
The Republicans if they had any balls at all would have all stood up and walked out.
No! that's what Democrats do
RINOs
GOP menace does not like when Democrat's Pull the same GAME they use. Too Flipping Bad!!!
Its very hard to walk without spines.

My god, what kind of government do we have; this is despicable. "Of the people, by the people, and for the people." Really?!
Unbelievable unbelievable
Imagine all these old people that have "no" life ahead of them, Dictating the laws for our children, who have their whole lives ahead of them.😢
My thoughts exactly all their out there for is to get as much as they can before they kick exactly why term limits should be inforced
Your right let's have the children dictate the future? Lolol. These people represent us it's who we chose. At least on the Republican side. Dems are not chosen but appointed.
Oh yeah. Kindergarteners for Congress.
@@jclark2317 you obviously missed the point.
Listen to all the Southern Accents. Lincoln was on to something.
So corrupt its unbelievable 😊
TRULY! Imagine not bothering to go to work for two HUGE, SUPER IMPORTANT meetings and then acting like everyone else is a dick for trying to move on.
This bullshit is why nothing gets done in US politics. It's just "fuck around and delay" from idiots with nothing meaningful to contribute to the debate in the first place. They literally said they were just going to rehash the vomit their colleagues had spewed before, lol.
The Republicans Are So CORRUPT, What Is NOT TO BELIEVE!!!!
The world is endingggggggggggggggg 😂😂😂😂
Yup, the Republicans' party is. They want democrats to follow rules when they themselves break it over and over again and again. No words.
Yup! Rethuggs getn taste of own medicine
Unacceptable!!!
Dick Durbin should be removed
More than half a century ago, in 5th grade, the class spent a week learning parliamentary procedure. I see this, and am ashamed we spend our dollars on this whole group of people 😢
ye don't spend it, they are stealing your money by not serving the country, only themselves
They have been defunding education for over fifty years what do you expect...😊
I didn't learn about the Parliament or law at all in my 18 years of school.. and that's pretty horrifying. I've learned everything I know, mostly, from researching myself online, and CZcams.
Almost seems intentional, eh?
@@ZeranZeran It's absolutely intentional
@@ZeranZeransame here! What I have learned tells me this entire debacle goes against what the senate was put in place to accomplish!
And them they wonder why we don't trust them. Kick Durbin out
Kick Durbin out of the breazy of the ground
man this shit is absolutely ridiculous and laughable at best. we the people need to take these things seriously and take back control. oh wait we could never do that because were too busy fighting eachother 😮💨
Time to empty the swamp people. We need a big change in DC
The disgrace is watching the waste of time and money spent by this stubborn, ego-driven chairman of the Judiciary committee. Pushing voting, when our representatives do not have clarity? This happens with passing bills or choosing nominees and is unacceptable
Easiest thing in the world is to just say NO. Anyone who has children knows this. Congress is in charge of OUR SAFETY, just as every parent is responsible for keeping their children out of harm’s way. We’re PAYING Congress to represent US, not their own self interest.
The Chairman is doing a superb job considering the Republican garbage he has to put up with. When the Republicans run committees, they don't put up with these kinds of disruptive tactics for one minute. Of course, the Democrats fight back against Republican ideology and agendas using regular Parliamentary protocol, rules, and ethics in furtherance of democracy. They don't pull their pants/panties down and start having temper tantrums to disrupt committee business like the Republicans do.
@@shirleyb2896 - I strongly object, congress has very little to do with OUR SAFETY.
As a Republican, too fkn bad! These politicians have ONE job, and it's being IN the Senate during Senate procedures. If these people have 'better things to do' than show up to a debate leading up to a vote, then they don't get to ask questions the day OF the vote!! Those meetings are either A) Nothing but Democrats or B) Nothing but Republicans.... The ones in this video don't need to 'SAY' anything. They're mind is made up, they're voting 'no' and 'saying' anything won't change that. STFU and vote! Otherwise, they can do their ONE job and show up to Senate hearings and get their 'facts straight' BEFORE the day of the vote...
Tuberville?
They need to bring charges up against them

Unbelievable...😮
Astonishing
Appalling. Durbin should be ashamed and resign or be forcibly removed from his position as chair.
Wow. This is shows how BROKEN this whole government has become..
My thoughts 💯 exactly 😢😢😢
I’m so embarrassed to live in Illinois. Dick Durbin has let me down every time I have contacted his office. Once my family responsibilities are done here I’m out of this state.
You need to get West of the Mississippi!!!!
Well what did you expect Dick doesn't represent Illinois, he only represents Chicago really. How did you think he got elected? Chicago runs the state, what they say goes for the whole state.
You can see this in quite a few states where pretty much a single metropolitan area runs their state defacto, at the expense of the whole states chagrin.
It's the tyranny of the slim majority, because they represent a larger share of the population in a given state, their area gets overrepresented while the rest of the state gets ignored, those cities priorities which are different from the rest of the state takes precedence over the remaining state.
Agreed, this is a charade...
Those politicians all the same, once they win the election they become arrogant and proud with big ego. Look at the way they talk to each other, they sound like narcissists.
This is a prime example of how an obnoxious JEW acts with power.
these are the things in which revolutions are made
Kangaroo court. This is democracy falling apart
Politized courts have ramifications.
Democracies always fall apart! That is why our founders made our form of government a Republic!!!!! Seems most politicians do not understand that fact or choose to conveniently ignore it!
The GOP skipped out/boycotted the previous 2 meetings in which they had the chance to speak.
@@nancykirkendall1415 the boycott was because their was an illegal vote held where quorum wasn’t present.
Why do you let him continue to be part of the committee? Refuse to participate in it until he’s removed or steps down! Refuse to allow a vote on ANYthing further until he is removed or steps down.
Perfect solution. He will never step down and all nominees will sail through.
Exactly, It's a Hollywood Soap Opera Sitcom Skit. All the people in this room answer to the same person, their only difference is that they are Dems and they are Reps both making sure all money making angles for the ...gov are covered. With what all these clowns are getting paid, this has to be the most expensive soap opera ever filmed.
If the bad guys don't get fired, then the good guys should be for not doing their job.
@@williamclayton7343 They have to have a quorum to be able to vote.

You're right. MTG has to go.
