Listening to this makes me sick... When they are directed to appear before a committee, if they don't answer the questions they should be held in contempt of committee and fined 1000.00 per refusal.
to me, contempt of congress is an admirable position
That is not a thing. He could invoke the Fifth Amendment anyhow or Executive Privilege.
@glasman9 There are certain questions he can't answer or he would be violating the rights of some Americans.
He dodged literally every question by repeating a handful of memorized lines.
@@Homesteadturcke No Proof he was hiding anything.
Every last one of them needs to be investigated.
And all there cases and the people they have locked away
Clear they arrest for favors and for money
Ann needs to be investigated, Fox News told me that Ann is a communist, trust me y’all 🤡🤡🤡
wont do any good...peter roberts owns the 3 LETTER MOB GROUPS
To impeach the GOP for lack of knowledge, bullying, and distortion of the facts is an unlikely charge😂
Anytime these clowns don't want to testify they just say it's an ongoing investigation healthy run investigation for five years until the statute of limitations runs out and then the person goes free that's Injustice and that person that allowed that to happen should be in jail himself
Farmland said he promised the Senate he would not interfere with Weiss’s investigation, not that he wouldn’t comment.
Garland not Farmland
What the justice department does is screw the American people
That's why I have no confidence in Congress anymore it's a jailable offense just to lie to them so why haven't they charged any of these Democratic people with lying to Congress , Macon where lie detectors during them talking to Congress
He’s a criminal like biden
You know there's something going on when someone can't answer yes or no and they go into all these descriptions around the question that has nothing to do with the question that was asked. He sure looks like he knows something is wrong,oh man they'll get you in the end,your bridge is collapsing.😂
Slap that man up side his head, how hard is it to say yes or no
Wonder why Weiss isnt there answering the question of why he didnt do anything of Hunter investigation in the allotted time . I would love to hear the answer coming out of his mouth under oath.
Simple, Weiss is not the AG.
Because there is nothing there. Weiss is a lifelong republican and was Trump appointed. If he couldn't charge him its because there was nothing to charge him for obviously.
They will eventually get to Weiss.
Because Weiss is currently prosecuting the case against Hunter, he's not going to divulge details in an ongoing case.

They are able to avoid any responsibility by either saying that it is sensitive information or pointing the finger at somebody that isn't there, what a disgrace🎉
Hunter’s private tax returns were private. He did not work for the US Government. Trump technically did not have turn over tax records, though he did in one year as POTUS and failed to do so.
You DO know how special investigators are supposed to work, don't you?
@@macsmith2013 yeah they screw around waste our tax dollars and at the end of it all nothing happens to anybody so yes I do understand
Pretty simple, somebody is lying, either Garland or Weiss? It's not that tough! WTF! No more farming around, bring in both Weiss and Garland. Obvious stone walling that every American can see. We're not blind!😮
@macsmith2013 What’s the reason they call it a “special investigation” if there isn’t a two tiered system? Wake up.
He sits there and lies and knows he'll get away with it because nobody has been held accountable for decades
What about the threats from a senior senator toward two Supreme Court Justices?
You mean the two corrupt, billionaire sponsored ones?
Why is Weiss not there? Nothing was accomplished without him.
😂😂😂Thats why he wasn't there.
Because he isn't the AG maybe? Just guessing.
Not to mention you apparently do not know how a special investigator/projecutor is supposed to work.
I guarantee we are not treated the same. If anyone not associated with the government... These charges would have already served their time.
Or at least still be serving their many yrs of time.
When they don't want to answer a yes or no question with a speech, shows me they're guilty!
He keeps acting like he can't hear or maybe he's confused about the question.
...shows me that the question is bogus . Crap questions are maliscious.
We don't need to defend them we need to get rid of the bad actors in liars
Yes let's get rid of these Republican phonies who are trying to drum up bogus charges just to get the Democratic presidential contender.
If by “fire” you mean “imprison,” then yes.
Well let's hope Fani Willis is victorious, then. Giuliani already admitted to have lied when he claimed 'the election was stolen'.
the bad actors are inside of the liars? via which orifice?
You mean all the MAGA supportering Republicans? Most of them are being imprisoned thankfully for their acts of seditious conspiracy/ insurrection/ attempted coup after being a bunch of sore pu$$y losers.
Everyone should be treated equally under the law. Regardless of political standing
Everyone is treated alike except democrat elitist
Hunter Biden's crimes do not rise to the level of the U.S. Attorney General. No other fully cooperative U.S. citizen would have been indicted.
MAGA doesn't want that; they want a president's lawyer like Jeffrey Clark or BARR.
@@stevenorosz1518 Or Trump. Any other defendant tweeting similar things about investigators and courts would wait in jail for their court date
Lol. Leftists are and believed they are above the law.
They should put them in a lie detector and under oath and ask direct yes or no questions to them. See how fast the laws start to get followed in the country without fail when accountability becomes a thing again.
There must be reprisals.
The GOP would then be required to ask fact based questions. UNLIKELY
@@margaretsomerville2510you have to be pretty blind to dismiss all of the evidence that's been easily available for nearly a decade now.
They no longer use lie detectors. 1960s technology.
....asking regular normal questions rather than crap questions would help the most.
When they refuse to answer simple questions, then you know they're guilty.
When they refuse to allow the witness to answer their questions, then you they're lying.
@@gottagoforit6574 When they try to exhaust all the time for questions by giving a wordy non-answer, then you know they’re guilty.
What happened to the people of courage who used to hold the positions. Bunch of cowards up there these days.
Their power has been taken from them in one way or another
@@foshat777 I think you mean freely given...
@@OscyJack- freely given by whom?
I don't understand why Wiess ask to be a special counsel and garland made him a special counsel, I thought gov officials and AG CHOOSE who to appoint not go with a flow of someone asking for favors to prosecute someone else
Captured, more likely.
The FBI should not be disbanded. The FBI agents who broke the law should be prosecuted and imprisoned.
Yes I agree …
@@CrayTommaybe you could get JFK jr or one of those other undead people Q is talking about.
@@CrayTomFor now demented biden/Beijing.😂😂
I actually agree. But Republicans seem to think a few bad apples makes the whole bunch rotten and are calling for the FBI To be defunded, in their own words.
Bring in the U S Marshall's to take their place.
He refuses to discuss because hes better than all of us😂
Know he's supposed to say the hell out of it you freaking *ing *ongs that's the whole idea of a special counsel woohoo 🥴
Why is it important that Weiss was appointed by Trump when we know the nomination would have gone nowhere without the OK of the two Democrat Senators from Delaware? That's the long standing practice in the Senate. And since they're not only Democrats, but also from Delaware, we know they're practically members of Biden's family.
..."two Democratic Senators from Delaware..." FIFY So are you also claiming that the R senators are practically members of the former guy's family?
The reason Garland appointed Weise was to make it not look political since Trump hired him. It looks like that's not good enough.
Funny how garland can answer the questions from dems, but not from reps.
Republicans are asking for privileged information they aren’t entitled to.
Funny how you can't see he answered the questions...and you just don't like hearing the truth
Do it right, but clean this evil swamp. We the people have no chance if swamp has its way
The evil swamp was the Trump administration...Do you even stay informed with current events?
The moment you made "swamp" into a partisan term, you lost the argument. And that moment occurred before you even started.
Ur wrong the swomp needs drained stop acting as if ur the ruler of are speach i know what he means iamd i agree fully drain the swomp if not it will be over ran by blood sucking sketters how about that there mister dictater of words
Get Weiss and Garland under oath together!!!
And hook em up to a car battery.
are these guys aware that tough talk doesn't cover for nonsensical questions? lmao
This is absolutely ridiculous
Why, because he's a Democrat?
More ridiculous than trump pleading the 5th 😂😂😂

They should have them both there at the same time.
If this was you or I we’d be charged and jailed immediately.
Too many lawyers, they strategically answer questions with a play on words.
Sounds like Weiss needed to answer questions with this guy.
Simple, Weiss is not the AG.
@@timm8263 but he is the special prosecutor, now.
Why? Does Congress, or more specifically Republican weaponized committees within Congress, dictate the manner in which professional federal prosecutors prosecute a case? No, not really. That's called interference, not oversight.
There'll be plenty of time once the trial is over for Republicans to whine and gnash over why Weiss didn't charge Hunter Biden with treason for his vastly-overblown low-grade crimes involving improper ownership of firearms and tax fraud, at the bequest of a Republican voter base who demands unfettered firearm ownership and celebrates and glorifies politicians who are caught and convicted of tax fraud.
STONEWALLING!!
He's saying what he's legally allowed to say and these professional republican liers are trying to use that against him to get sound bites
Defunding the FBI should be done ASAP!!!!
How many times are we gonna hear him say he made a promise? He swore an oath to the american people! Not to mister wife.
Something wrong with that?
“Whether or not to let the statute of limitations expire”… why is that an option? Let law breakers… break the law? What prosecutor would do that? (The last response Garland gave)
I don't think you understand what they mean by the statute of limitations expiring.
We let you break the law, don’t we?
Maybe next time you exceed the speed limit on a roadway a cop should kill you on the side of the street, the way we treat black people
There are many possibilities, all of which fall under prosecutorial discretion. Two of such possibilities are: (1) the prosecutor determined that the evidence was insufficient to bring charges; and (2) those facts fit the elements of a different crime with a longer statue of limitations and the prosecutor intends to bring those charges for whatever reason (easier to prove, harsher punishment, etc). Every time a prosecutor chooses not to bring charges, the statute of limitations eventually expires.
@@timbyrd4894 I understand that for normal cases and normal circumstances, but I mean google ‘Hunter Biden underage hookers crack pipes’ and hit images for me. Then look up IRS whistleblowers and their claims of so many red flags he should have been forced to hand over records himself! Any non-rich, non-politically connected American would be instantly audited and looked over with just one!!!
@@timbyrd4894 great response.
Republicans and their committees wow!!!
They’re morons, alright! 🙈
@garyleetillman6772 The sick part is that HB is being dragged through hell for buying a gun while supposedly on drugs. There was no ammo in it and had never been fired. If Trump had not been indicted none of this would have mattered to these crazies. I sure am happy I don't live there but the entertainment value is great. I'm sure the whole world thinks the same thing.
Since when does anybody have the right to listen to every conversation by Government Officials in a non-formal setting?
I'm a registered Independent and past democrat supporter but Garland should be fired
Like all hearings....We learn NOTHING! It's all a big joke!'
Yeah. All the 'we know something, we have proof, but no one is allowed to see it'. Even Fox hosts are loosing their patience now: "So where is that smoking gun?' 'Later! But it's UNBELIEVABLE!!!'
Any hearing in the House which is run by Republicans will be a clown show just like this one. You can bank on it.
Like an oily eel, slippery
You know what is really sad about these oversight committee hearings? Same thing with Mayorkas and all the rest. We the taxpayers pay hundreds of thousands of dollars to lawyers and coaching people that teach and coach them how to not answer questions and how to use up time so they don’t have to answer as many questions. These people should not have any of their legal fees paid by taxpayers. They make their own decisions and should be like the rest of the citizens
AG Garland is the best dance since Fred Astaire , He can side step any Question every answered
See how they state things in hopes of giving a misinformation.😅
I understand the need for water boarding in the pursuit of truth.
Does Weiss report directly to Garland? Weiss must have an immediate supervisor. Wouldn't that supervisor monitor and evaluate the performance of Weiss? Did Weiss get a performance review after Garland became Attorney General?
He does not answer to Garland, EVER.
When the inquisitors are this deranged, the exchange is bound to get heated.
Avoiding the answer not answering the question is actually answering the question
Noooooo! Really? You graduated top of the class in law school I’m sure
The Senate: Don't say anything about the investigation
The House: Why won't you say anything about the investigation
That’s the Nazi-Republican Party for ya!
The Senate: Let’s investigate Trump’s crimes in office.
The House: Why don’t we focus on making up phony crimes committed by Biden?

"I promise..." Garland somehow thinks his word at this point is worth something!
The next time you are charged with something ask for the best lawyer that money can buy then you may have equal justice if they are willing to pay for it that is equal justice.
If they keep defending the police no one gets charged. No need for lawyers anymore. Because they'll be no justice. like New york, California, Minnesota, just ask Shavanthi Sathanandan,chairwoman who was attacked in front of her kids. But she asked to defund the police. It's scary, but they don't care
Lol Right!!! Just need the Bribe-den s money printing machine...
These people work for us!!! I am so tired of hearing that they cannot answer anything!! 🤬
Stop asking about ongoing investigations then…
“Please provide all privileged information and your attorney work product regarding an ongoing prosecution.”
“I legally can’t”
“Then you’re hiding something!!!”
This is basically what’s happened.
Supreme Court would have been a life time appointment
Every time I hear anything about dee OHJ, C YI Yay…P0t0US senate, … any fed action or anything inaction (border) election, … I think of that…
Scary….
any individual in a government position incapable of answering simple straight forward questions should be immediately removed from their office and face criminal charges for obstruction! too many people in important positions are only causing harm to the American people and should be removed accordingly! The military taught me best that "There is no such thing as an excuse!"
The military should have sent you for a mental exam.
Asked and answered questions.
They hide behind saying they can't discuss what they discussed if they discussed anything, but all they're asking for is, did you speak to him, and he won't answer that.
They need to start saying we don't care what you discussed, but we need to know if you had any discussions with him. Yes, or no.
Garland should be removed from his position. He must answer their questions because they are over his department.
Garland should be asked ' what is his interpretation of Treason ' ?
I wasn't aware that the US had so many sharp judicial minds as evidenced by the comments.

Garland, why did you make him special council if Mr. Weiss had all that power?
Because Weiss applied to be special council. But why did Weiss apply so late? Is he a rookie who needs handholding? Another of those Trump appointees who have no qualifications whatsoever, like Judge Aileen Cannon in Florida? Trump made abysmal choices when it came to personnel

Oh my gosh!!!! 😮😮😮 don’t know what to say here about Mr. Garland????
Overseeing the investigator is not interfering with the investigation
Well, it would mean to make certain calls. For example the statute of limitations decision. Weiss may have wanted to save his breath on that. Garland saying he should investigate it would have been misconstrued as sending Weiss on a wild goose chase. So I don't think the answer is that easy.
I think Garland as someone appointed by Biden did well to erect some kind of wall of governance. Weiss is not a rookie. If he doesn't want to pursue certain avenues, that's his prerogative.
I find it however interesting, that wherever we look: Trump appointees are just not cutting it. Weiss is the latest example
@@Robert-er5wq Weiss is doing the same thing Muller did. Run up time & come up with nothing but lying on a gun application for a charge.

Yet during the same time FBI was involved in creating a "Let's kidnap the governor coup" during Trumps Admin. 3 men were charged & acquitted recently (all the others were FBI or FBI Affiliated)

Where did AG Garland get “heated”?
The only ones getting heated are the Republican house members who are pissy because they can’t shake him.
It's a marketing headline. Every time there is a headline, someone always "kills", "destroys", "eviscerates", or "demolishes" someone else. It's a buzz word that gets the mentally retarded to click the buttons.
No it’s because he is lying under oath that’s why they are heated

WOW! With all this assurance,why has it taken so long to get nothing done.
Ask Weiss, perhaps? The person for whom Garland had to promise the Senate to not interfere?
Exactly. Because there's nothing to be done. It's a gotcha attempt.
Because Hunter Biden's crimes do not rise to the level of the U.S. AG. Republicans are doing everything they can to overblow those crimes.
