She should have asked him if he was a KKK member because of where he's from.
Do you have a letter? Can you look in your records for a letter you resigned from the KKK?
nah, The DNC has a Lock on KKK members.. remember Biden even gave the eulogy of the Grand Wizard senator.. senator Byrd..
I guarantee you that Kenedy is a grand dragon.
lol good one! And accurate.
@@donofon101 - "Most of those ol KKK birds shifted to Nixon."
They actually voted against Nixon for not being racist enough - they voted for a third party for George Wallace, the guy from Alabama who famously called for "segregation now, segregation tomorrow, segregation forever".
After that they all voted for Republicans though.
McCarthy, Kennedy, and Communist accusations, it's the 1950s all over again
Makes sense, they were already assholes during the '50s...
Except this John Kennedy lacks any of the previous John Kennedy's charisma
Well, that's the America they're trying to take us back to to make us "great again, again".
I literally just screamed 'oh my god shut the f*** up' at my computer screen as Kennedy asked those questions, and it was completely involuntary.
He irritated me that much.
Exactly
it's so disingenuous because he's definitely old enough to have seen that the USSR was there but not anymore. And the mere idea that a citizen could just resign by post from the USSR to get out ... like if it was that easy they wouldnt have much use for the wall. several million people died from famine and persecution when they could have all just written letters and I guess the soviet social structure wouldn't apply to them?
Ridgerunner21, what did you think of the quotes Kennedy read from Omarova's own papers (written in the last two years) in which she proposed nationalizing all bank accounts , bankrupting our fossil fuel companies, and having the federal government set wages, gas, and food prices? Did they irritate you? (Sorry, I just remembered that Seth didn't include those in his clips. Go to 3:40. czcams.com/video/BHNPDrVBCC8/video.html)
P.S. I agree that it was a shame that Kennedy wasted 2 minutes on the stupide questioning about the Young Communists organization. I wish he had pushed harder on her outrageous writing in the last two years.
Me too....
Normal person: "Senator, when I turned 18 I was legally not a child anymore."
Senator: "Did you write a letter to resign from being a child though?"
The previous First Lady was born in a Soviet country, her parents had links to the communist party, and had an accent thicker than a Bond villain. Did that raise Kennedy's hackles in any way, shape or form?
No but it should've to all of us
Yugoslavia was most definitely not part of the Soviet sphere. Absolutely communist, yes, but Yugoslavia was very famously non-Soviet.
@@williamheayn3760 But communist,comrad!
@@ThePoppinger I live under a communist government, in an Indian state called KERALA. But it's a democratically elected one. We, including myself ,vote for a Liberal government and communist government alternatively. Although, at the end of the day, a politician, left or right, only care about his pocket.
@@sfsen there you have it. Politicians being crazy isn't partisan and they are great at distraction and pitting us against eachother
It was impossible to resign from being a Komsomol or any other youth organization in USSR. If you actually had a mental capacity to do that, you'd be under KGB radar 24/7. For literally anything. I remember tearing off the USSR star badge from the chest of my classmate (by accident), and my parents were called to school for investigation, questioned as if they were the enemies of the country. After that, my dad kept like a dozen of those star badges in the drawer - just in case anyone of his children did the same again. It was a running joke in our house ten years after USSR collapsed.
In a soviet regime, there was no freedom to refuse. Either you did as asked, or you were the enemy of the country. Or in jail. That senator is dreaming flowers about USSR.
sounds like the modern GOP....if you vote for a bill that could help your constituents you must be outed by the Republican party IMMEDIATELY. You are not allowed to vote for any democratic bill but dont worry you will be able to take credit for the effects of that bill that you voted against.....because LOGIC
Well , of course he is dreaming. Thats the only brain activity he's able to have, hence the moronic questions and insane the lack of understanding of the real world..
On the bright side the reactionary response to the freedom to refuse, for simple things like basic science, has helped the US get to 800K dead in the last year and a half! Hopefully there's more to come as at the very least; those evil communists actually didn't like Nazis and we in America are very much pro-nazi rhetoric and ideology. But thank your lord or demon we extrajudicially murder dissenters who are pro communism.
She shouldn't have to justify her ancestry, this is disgusting.
Same thing they did to Obama. The GOP doesn't have any actual negative info on them, so all they have is personal attacks. Disgusting, coward, un-American, you call it however you want. It's a disgrace.
The Republicans accuse you of being communist because you appear to be Asian. That brings back a bad memory of elderly Asian Americans being randomly attacked.
Did Sen. Kennedy ask the same questions of Mitch McConnell's wife?? Probably not.
Why NOT. Everybody else does this days in the left's Stupid America.
@@mauricioszwerdszarf1455 citation needed, there, um... Mauricio. What's that last name? It's not one typically found in the USA. Are you sticking your nose into US politics when you don't even live here?
@@mauricioszwerdszarf1455 that doesn't even make sense
The fact that we pay these people to do this "job" KILLS ME. And they definitely make more than me...
We're not. Corporation is. Are all the Senators getting the same pay or is it by state?
Insulting...
I'm starting to think that the USA should start teaching real, actual, genuine world history in schools.
It is counted as hatred for them to teach their own history in school, so teaching genuine world history is off the table.
No, they would be heartbroken.
Fat Chance of that with the conservative controlled content of most of our schoolbooks in this country.
That'll never happen since Conservatives are determined to paint white people as the "saviors" of black slaves instead of their masters and ignoring the vile ways that Native Americans were treated during the early history of America.
They're crying about statues being removed as "erasing history" while they literally try to erase history.
Being a hypocrite is a prerequisite for being a Republican.
We can't even teach our own history!
Sen. Kennedy DEFINITELY meant to be disrespectful with that "comrade" question, just in case anyone was still wondering...
@yossarian agree 100%. Shameful that he represents the US :(
@yossarian I was almost waiting for him to flip out the oversized novelty teeth and rice farming hat.
It's the same way people say "I'm not a racist, but..." before saying some of the most racist things you've ever heard.
She should have asked the fool if he addresses Melania Trump as comrade. Her dad a card carrying commie.
it wasn't a question , as musch as a comment
I wish she would have looked at him and asked, "Senator, is it true you went to Oxford? Because I can't imagine anyone as uninformed as you even getting through the door.!
She was so shocked at the stupidity of Kennedy's questions, that she almost stuttered to answer him. She was probably thinking, are these questions real, did he get them from a 1st grader and he's a senator, Wow!
"I don't know whether to call you professor or comrade"
"That's okay senator, I know exactly what to call you"
EXACTLY 💯 %UNBELIEVABLE TRUE 👍 🤡💩
Has Senator Kennedy resigned from kindergarten? Can he bring a copy from his records to prove this?
👏👏👏👏👏
J. Kennedy Oxford graduate? Did he pay intelligent people to write his papers and take his tests??
Senator J.K. displays little evidence that he learned the basics of good, moral behavior expected of a kindergarten graduate, let alone an Oxford graduate..
I don't think he resigned from the confederacy either
Obviously, he has not.
An article in today's Washington Post referred to Sen. Kennedy as Foghorn Leghorn. Laughed my head off reading that.
One of the things I really enjoy about the comments for the Closer Looks is reading what other countries write about what America is doing. We are sometimes truly an embarrassing horror comedy show!
Honestly some of the GOP are crazy. Or so cynical they fake it to appeal to the lowest common denominator which seems worse somehow. The UK isn’t perfect don’t get me wrong but things like healthcare unite us. Climate change law was pioneered in government by a conservative. Admittedly it suited her agenda but they are anti facts.
Can we talk about how amazing Dr. Omarova was? She acted with such dignity and restraint to such absurd questions.
She was excellent, but really her restraint was kind noticeably battling to burst out, in fairness she fought the urge off.
Yes she was patience and calm.
YES! ABSOLUTELY 💯 %TRUE UNBELIEVABLE ! Dr. Omarova DESERVES a 🏅 MEDAL 4 Having 2 Put Up 👏🏽👌With Kennedy's BS🤡💩👍🙏
Elizabeth Warren's speech in praise of Dr Omarova is a very good thing to watch. Pallet cleanser from all the bullshit.
@@stefanhoimes thanks for the heads up!
My turn for being a jackal…
When you said over 60 court cases had found no evidence of fraud, in _actual_ fact, the court cases never even got to the discovery phase, because the people bringing the cases had no evidence they could present to judge. So they were thrown out of court, possibly while being laughed at.
That was my jackal, thank you.
😂 the Tr**p administration kept claiming voter fraud in public but then doubled down in actual court cases cause they had no evidence. Every single one of this cases was a flaming pile of garbage.
Correction(ish) - Whole corn, on the cob, is considered a vegetable. The corn kernel itself (where popcorn comes from) is considered a grain. Corn is actually a vegetable, a whole grain, and a fruit.
Popcorn is its own kind.
Kevin McCarthy is insane! He represents the area of California where my son lives. Heaven help all the “babies” in his district!
Thank you Ohio Rep Tim Ryan for reminding KM that no one was listening. You are restoring my faith in my birth state.
Whenever someone says I don’t mean any disrespect, they are about to be disrespectful.
"I don't mean to pry.. " "Are you free Saturday ?" Great I need someone to babysit. Jr. has a runny nose.."
"I'm not bragging but..."
Not all the time but most of the time especially during political discussions yeah they’re either about to be flat out awful or disrespectful
Or even..." with all due respect" what follows very rarely contains the respect I thought I was due
No offense, but
Same deal with "I'm not racist, but..."
OMG, just when I think Kennedy can't get any dumber he blows my mind.
That was preformance art; red meat for the MAGA base. They killed off some of their true believers and now are seeking to reve up their turn out for the 2022 mid-terms.
Maybe all sides of Senate and Congress should fight it out in Vegas we all can place bets and make some money instead of letting these people use the citizens to go to war on themselves and lose everything!
He's not dumb at all. Just like Cruz, this is what passes as humor to the maga crowd.
They eat it up
@@andymartin2481 No, we don't want the RNC to give anymore money to Trump. Throwing our money in the street is a more sound investment than giving to Trump.
In Kennedy's own words: it must suck to be that dumb
Thank you Seth and your writers for keeping me sane! It’s only humour keeping me going in this crazy-ass world right now! Keep up the good work
The sad part is: when someone lies enough and defends it fervently enough he will acknowledge it as truth and will seek confirmation wherever he can while entirely ignoring common sense and factual truths. They build their own reality and it's a real threat to anyone in America that seeks a better living standard
Ignoramus: "Did you resign, did you send them a letter?"
Me: "Fleeing from the Soviet Union is its own form of resignation, Senator."
In Russia, letter resigns YOU... 😂
One of the other Senators had to raise his voice at Kennedy to tell him that she's an American. Not even trying to hide the xenophobia.
It is a kids group. You automatically end membership upon reaching14 years of age. Such a stupid question. I am sure her face was saying, "WTF are you are talking about - are you really that much of an idiot."
Excellent point, Counselor!
You resigned the moment you flee the country ...but if they need an official document that stipulates you resigned from any organization or any country, she could've just pointed towards her naturalization certificate issue date...because that day,you swore an oath to this country and renounced loyalty to any other nation or organization and pledge to serve this country if this country ever calls your name..
I know ,because I pledge and swore an oath to this country on September of 2020 ..right before and just in time for me to vote for biden and help save and rebuild this nation . 💁🏻♂️
Dear Kevin McCarthy,
Please do not feel obligated to “stand strong” for me. I’m totally good. If fact, I’d really rather you didn’t. Ever.
Sincerely,
an American person.
p.s. me too
P.S. me too
It's almost like it's an issue people should vote on
When he said there was no worse example of reckless government spending I was waiting for someone to shout, "the wall!'
All I can say is that I'm forever grateful that I live in Canada now and watch the US meltdown from far away.
John Kennedy is a live action caricature of those "southern gentlemen" who still calls blacks the N word.
@@donofon101
Does anyone else wonder
did John Kkkennedy ever resign
from the "Boy Scouts"
down there in Louisiana?
(inquiring minds want to know)
Senator? I thought he was an extra from O Brother Where Art Thou (Oh Death!!!)
Shouldn't he be in Dallas, where a bunch of people are apparently still waiting for him to appear living-dead style?
@@S.Pociecha Nah that's his other brother Darryl (oops I meant John)
"I don't mean any disrespect" he says, and goes on to insult the intelligence of every person that hears his statement.
People who "don't mean any disrespect" always always means disrespect.
Lock him up!
He should be showing up in Dallas, that will be more significant for those Qs.😜
@@nataschavisser573 so true!
I literally hurts me, to watch him and hear him.
Seriously. It hurts.
How the hell does Cruz keep all his lies straight. I get flustered if I have to keep one lie.
I guess that's the difference between a lier and someone who tells the truth.
As McCarthy was getting warmed up in his McFilibuster last Thursday, I thought, “Wait till Seth and his team get ahold of this material.” So I was glad to see you confront the horror of the Baby Carrots crisis.
And thanks, I guess, for forcing me to watch Sen. Kennedy’s questioning of Ms. Omorova. That’s quite a spectacle: A US Senator being deliberately boorish and stupid.
I’m glad Senator Smith was there to speak for me, even if it was under her breath.
She was more than civil, considering his multiple efforts to be insulting and demeaning...(and clearly intentional, unless he is even dumber than I thought)😡😬🖖
She has far more tact and restraint than me.
'I dunno did you send in a letter of resignation to the ku klux klan?'
She should have laughed at him,"it's a joke right? no you're the joke!"
“I don’t mean any disrespect…”
*proceeds to insult and disrespect her*
@@jbtpa895 I keep hoping Someone will say Something like that.
Yes, Sir: You Are Being Disrespectful!
And What about Melanie and her Parents?
What an embarrassing Fool!
@@singletona082 Did he say he resigned from the KKK? lol
I would have loved to have heard Dr Omarova ask if Kennedy had been a member of any Confederate organizations, when he was younger.
I'd like to see if he still has his elementary school report cards.
I’d have loved to have seen her laugh in his face.
@Rochelle. Or even currently for that matter!
@@suimeingwong2043 Brett Kavanaugh could probably help him reconstruct a daily activities calendar.
Do you think he would give an honest answer?
When the majority of the people you supposed to represent wants what we pay taxes for and you oppose. You need to go! Strong for you and you need to resign! PLEASE GO. 🤢🤮
I remain deeply disappointed that Senator Kennedy hasn't gone over to the QAnoners waiting in Dallas for the return of a John Kennedy. He'd totally make their day!
Underrated comment of the year!
Republicans had no problem with the 7.8 trillion for defense budget when we aren't at war but can't find the money for BBB bill to help taxpayers.
EXACTLY 💯 %CORRECT UNBELIEVABLE!!👍💰👀🗽🇱🇷🙏🐷❣
The defence bill is for the coming year alone, BBB spending was for the next 10 years. Aaaugh.
And let us never forget the Great Giveaway of 2017, when these people gleefully (not an exaggeration, if you think back to the footage of all those beaming euphoric Republican faces) handed over trillions of dollars of our money to their masters. And of course, to themselves.
Or disabled people. Does BBB do anything to raise SSI amounts and change its most draconian and cruel rules, like not allowing disabled people to marry?
Yup... because it's all about their profit and their gain. Screw the average American/their constituents.
Isn't that basically like asking if you ever sent a letter to your elementary school formally resigning after you've moved onto middle school?
.. and proving to the world that he is the idiot we thought him to be all along .
Thanks to Seth and the writers - making these most horrendous events in our government and society a little bit better by laughter.
This man holds power… he is a senator. The rest of the world is laughing at us. This man is someone who makes MAJOR decisions. WTF? I’m so tired of people being shocked and saying, “this isn’t us.” Nah it is. This is our country everyone. Let that sink in.
At least half of us....
Yeah, thank God not all of us. Doesn't mean there aren't enough for the country to be worthy of worldwide ridicule, unfortunately. It just blows my mind there are a large cross section of people who blindly support these lunatics in the first place, and they're the ones who loudly proclaim that they are "critical thinkers" who "do their own research" without bothering to find evidence of whether or not what they're viewing as "empirical data" has any basis in reality.
We the people elect we the people and when S.H.T.F and the united states of america turns into a 3rd world country and or under a hitler or stalin, its we the people that made that come to be and we the people are to blame.
My god, it's literally the second coming of McCarthyism.
History repeats itself over and over. This, however, is notable.
Emerald Spark xxiixixxi Did this dude wear a set of heavy 'Depends' ?
"Are you, or have you ever, been apart of the Baby Carrot Communist Party?"
The age of WEAKLINGS!!!
McCarthy specifically targeted the ‘Lavender Menace’ because gays and communists were equally the enemy. Add in a new and exciting version of Blood Libel and you have an idea what these people are trying to do to their ‘enemies’.
I am from Lancaster, California born and raised. As a Californian, there are few moments that I get to be embarrassed by my politicians the way someone from Florida might be, but this past year has sure been something. I have never felt secondhand embarrassment the way I just did seeing Kevin McCarthy representing my hometown.

As a witness, I wouldn’t be able to be so polite. I’d have said, “Oh no, you definitely DO mean to disrespect me,” and as he hammered away at his ridiculous line of questioning about Communism, I’d have said, “Did you say your name was Senator McCarthy?” and “Look, I get it - you don’t have any substantive questions, and just want to grandstand for the lunatic fringe who elected you, but could we move on to some topic that’s actually relevant to this hearing?”

He is successfully manipulating the Republican base. That he is successful at it says some scary truths about the Republican base.
he's being a racist xenophobe, just like all the other little racist xenophobes want him to be
"America, you're weak" Pity McCarthy couldn't look in the mirror and at his party, then join up the dots.
"I don't mean any disrespect when I say this incredibly disrespectful thing..."
Ted Cruz throwing all those local election officials under the bus. Yes, Senator Kennedy did mean to disrespect the nominee.
And this is what Former Speaker John Boehner wrote about cruz; "There is nothing more dangerous than a reckless asshole who thinks he is smarter than everyone else". From the book " On The House". And that's the nicest thing he said about cruz.
Maybe Kennedy should just resign from whatever organization he belongs to. Oh that's right he's a republicant. Under the trump admistration. The debt went up by over 5 trillion$ s. Yes Seth it's true about baby carrots.
At least no one stood up and yelled " you lie!!. Like one of your party did to President Obama when he was speaking.

Pushing unfounded rumors about voter fraud are.
Carefully omitting that the doubt about the election is a total ReTrumplican fabrication.

I'm reminded of Joseph Welch's response to Joseph McCarthy's accusations of Communism: “Until this moment, Senator, I think I never really gauged your cruelty or your recklessness. Have you no sense of decency, sir? At long last, have you left no sense of decency?”
“You wouldn’t believe the amount of heckling they gave me to try to get me to stop talking.”
If I was in a meeting at work and some asshole stood up after a presentation and proceeded to rant for the next 8.5 hours making it so I COULDN’T leave….yeah he would start hearing some sarcastic comments. I have ADD, either shut up or let me entertain myself.
The whole point of grandstanding is not allowing anyone else to voice their constituents views
There's no better fodder for Republican, 'Deliverance-Baby', Rage than "they tried to get me to stop talking"! McCarthy knows exactly what he's about.
Amazing how these Donnie's and Donna's say and do things on their jobs that anyone else would get fired, or severely reprimanded for.
What's crazy is that he's complaining about ONE heckler making ONE silly comment after rewarding a fellow congressman who threatened another's life. That's today. That's this country.
Sheesh. I used to think that McCarthyism was a thing of the past. Guess I really was naive.
Next thing you know, some draft dodging All-American 'Hero' actor will try to be the next John Wayne (who never served) and have his fans and allies in government assault and imprison American citizens he doesn't like...the kind of person might even try to become presid....oh wait.

It's sad that we have people who are trying to bring back McCarthyism and people who will talk about anything and everything just to stop a bill because it has too many good things in it.
Though, I suppose I do appreciate the irony of a second McCarthy being the new herald of it.

The cruelty is the point
The GQP base lapps it up and having killed off some of consituants they need tokeep what's left foaming at the mouth, so they'll turn out for the mid-terns.
And, that's his GOOD trait!
Let me introduce you to the GOP...
The dumbest flavor of evil, but still evil...
Why are we dealing with these clowns…I have a idea , let’s stop going to their circus!!!!
Sen Tina Smith's reaction is perfect.
Marvelously educational and hilariously illuminating. And much needed now and abouts…
As one of the six people in the United states who have actually read The Communist Manifesto and Das Kapital, I feel qualified to say that nobody in the Republican Party who throws around the term "Communist" actually knows what it means. For Republicans it is tantamount to calling someone the boogeyman and is just intended to conjure up irrational fear of the unknown.
That's basically their only political strategy at this point. Other than whipping themselves into a frenzy over changes to 70 year old books and toys, striping the voting rights act and asking gun-touting maniacs to be their interns.
There’s at least seven who read them as my grandson, who is a high functioning autistic, has read those as well as many other books about different governments.
Senator. I remember JFK and believe me you're no John Kennedy!
Why can't we get rid of these IDIOTS ! So disgusted !
That's what I've been saying for years. When they throw around the term communist they have absolutely no idea what they're actually talking about and are only regurgitating buzzwords from actors off of an entertainment Channel.
How is the GOP so ignorant! It’s just insane.
It's also intentional and a very effective and time proven way to manipulate their pitiful base.
UNHINGED, they are.
BBB better pass. This country is falling apart at the seams. Not fixing it (checks notes) won't fix it.
It is unfortunate to say but no, a lot of them are extremely cunning:
It is their voting base who are so ignorant.
Their voters are ignorant. The politicians are cynical sociopaths feeding into that ignorance.
What's more terrifying are the people who vote for them
None of the GOP members (who voted against this bill) should take any of the money from from this bill. They should just simply refuse the awful money for their district.
I am going through all my kids' past school paperwork in a panic🥶
What if they , one day, want to be in a position in government 🤔
Where did Kevin McCarthy get all that energy to talk for 8.5 hours? Did he consult with Don Jr. beforehand to rehearse his “lines”? 👃
It's easy to have that kind of energy when you don't do much work.
👍👀😱😡🤡💩
Yes, there were a few 'bumps' he had to iron out.
@@jackie9190 - I want to know why, the more insane a Gooper's rhetoric is, the more backwoods Appalachia their fake "Deliverance" accents are. Eh, Kevin?
It’s like asking if she retired from primary school…. Is Sen. Kennedy really this limited?
I want to see papers of Kennedy's graduation from kindergarten... because it's very suspect at this point.
Yes. And he reflects his constituents, sadly.
Mr. McFarty is a kindness to him.
I feel Dr. Omarova's incredulous annoyed mom tone in my soul
WHat a waste of our hard earned money! Crooked politicians wasting everyone's time.
And energy. I'm starting to get pissed when they make me exert myself and exhale forcefully listening to their dumbasses!! 🤬
Senator did you officially resign your membership to the KKK, since you're old and raised in the South
Just so you know, there are 2 kinds of “baby” carrots. Those that are indeed baby carrots and those that are “baby cut” carrots made with larger carrots cut down to a smaller size.
I've always thought of Ted as Mr. Haney from "Green Acres".
F John Kennedy and his "I mean no disrespect"
That comment was a slap in the face
Kennedy: “I mean no disrespect…”
Me: “Yes, you do.”
It’s similar in style to when some jerk says, “I’m not racist, but…” then says something incredibly racist.
Definitely a backhanded shot, where someone appears to gives you a compliment when in actuality they're insulting you.
How many clowns can one political party have?
"How is your voice doing?" asks the woman with the most annoyingly grating voice I have ever heard.
EXACTLY 💯 %TRUE UNBELIEVABLE!! 🤣😷😤🙊👍
My thought exactly 😆
He talked for over 8 hours about nothing.....and didn't expect people to not heckle?!
Why can't she come out and just say " what a ridiculous question! I'm offended by it!".
Oh my word, he's such an embarrassment. Also I'm pretty sure I forgot to resign from the community service club. And from forensics! I better hurry up before I get accused of impersonating a CSI tech.
I just love how these lying clowns keep saying they wanted a decision based on the merits, and claim the court cases were all thrown out on standing. Well, two things with that. First, if you don't have standing, you won't have the merits. That is why standing is considered first. Any ruling thrown out on standing would be thrown out on merits as well. But more then that, there were quite a few, I can't remember exactly how many, that DID get thrown out on the merits. Its just crazy.
Well which each contested state did at least 2 recounts and even non-contested states doing at least 1 recount (They do a recount to verify that the original running total count numbers are accurate), the DoJ saying they found no fraud, and DHS Cyber Security head saying no fraud.
What fraud are they looking for?
@@occhamsrazor They know there was no fraud and that 45 lost the election. But they are using the Notsee 101 textbook that says that if you repeat a lie enough times, it will be believed. So they keep repeating it. They also know that their knuckle-dragging, low-information (or more truthfully, no-information) base will, as always, believe whatever they tell them. So here we are.
@@occhamsrazor Even the 'Cyber Ninjas' found a few more votes for Biden, that must have been a real kick in the nuts for Pillow Guy and his orange 'hero'. The only fraud was Republicans voting twice or for someone dead. They ought to be tired of 'all that winning' by now, but obviously they aren't too bright. Can't wait to see what they're going to try by 2022 or 2024 to make America forgive and forget 800,000 dead and 50 million infected. You're great again, czcams.com/video/NMre6IAAAiU/video.html
Number one on earth.
@@Lumby1 Yeah, that's why I don't understand why conservatives are dragging out the infrastructure bills and the Jan 6th investigation.
Both will be in full swing during the mid-terms since they stalled so much.
They seem stuck on obstructing today with no plans on how it will hurt them tomorrow. They think the progressives are just gonna let them take credit like they did in 2009? Since both passed, progessives are gonna at least run on that they didn't vote for it, and how they are hiding what they did on Jan 6th, and conservatives think this is a winning strategy?
They don't want decisions made, they want havoc wrought.
A baby carrot is a carrot harvested before reaching maturity and sold at that smaller size.
A baby-cut carrot is a small piece cut from a larger carrot.
oh shoot....I never resigned from the Girl Scouts! I gotta get on that.
