  1. Investing in crypto now should be in every wise individuals list, in some months time you'll be ecstatic with the decision you made today…

  2. Macarroni…. Male Pelosi 2.0 Republicans? Don't have better choices? Come on Republicans? You are better than democrats… that what I think… or I wrong????

  3. Get the game over get some one new

  4. The dude had an inferior understanding of the Bible as does the entire Catholic Church. If they actually knew what they were talking about they would accept Baha’u’llah, and the institution of the priesthood would no longer exist. The whole structure is based on them missing the boat.

  5. Tomorrow will be an interesting day in American history.

  6. 200,000 new jobs, what about the millions who were out of work, getting hand outs from the government. 200,000 is just people going back to work.

  7. What those storms don't go across the central part of the country? Always cover the whole story or it sounds like you're lieing

  8. If they are not sworn in how are they holding a vote? Sounds like fraud to me

  9. Why do you say"on our side"….."we the ppl pay taxes for a congress that gets along with one another. So I do have to sound like a mother? Really?????‽

  10. Republicans keeping Americans from moving forward

  11. Boebert: Peachy! Your ex -favorite former president! You're a real joke and like to hear 🙉 yourself talk! Get a life!😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

  12. This Morning's Top Headlines – January 5

  13. Politicians definition – dummies wasting the American people’s time and money

  14. Your reporter sounds like a brat with a sweet groggy voice….
    Script readers at the very best!!!
    Reporters
    Are more concerned with dressing up than doing any real research and reports….
    Where to you find theses Brats
    Can we get some real men and woman that actually have some backbone and dignity.
    If you continue to use these rejects to read your scripted news….
    You'll find that the people will not believe a word your saying….

  15. Solid republican leadership 👏 🤣

  16. again the government not functioning because of the republican obstruction – for the thousandth time.

  17. McCarthy is like McConnell. All talk and no action. We need someone like Jim Jordan, Matt Gaetz, Chip Roy, Byron Donalds, Ted Cruz, Josh Haawley, etc. McCarthy does not have the fire or the tenacity that the others have. He is too just eager to make everybody happy and not make waves. We NEED change and the only way this will happen is with a strong leader that is willing to demand investigations into all of the corruption we have endured over the last 2 years. Career politicians need to go!

  18. McCarthy We The People say " Your Fired! We do not trust you what part of this do you not understand. Step down.

  19. Look for Caesar's Messiah on YouTube for context.

  20. Lol let’s see how long these politicians last without getting paid 😂. That’s what’s you get McCarthy 😂😂😂😊

  21. Fire all of them and start fresh

  22. They are not serving the people there serving themselves, n why o why is anyone listening to borbert. Such a dumb child.

  23. Stop acting like Catholicism is so big in the USA. 🙄🙄🙄✝️🙏✝️🙏✝️🙏✝️🙏✝️🙏✝️🙏✝️🙏🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲

  24. While I have no respect for McCarthy…A tiny minority holds the vast majority captive, paralyzing the process until their demands are met. Seems more like a terrorist hostage situation than functioning American democracy.

  25. Get bent, Republican traitors!! You don't deserve power if you're going to abuse it, in every conceivable way. 💔

  26. Keep trump and his stool pigeons out please. Thank yall

  27. That's right you can't trust him because the 34 Republican he drops the name that bad for the family people know now who they are they have go back home they know people are going be looking at people in there town going think they triator and that bad for them

  28. WE, THE INDEPENDENT PARTY trust NO ONE suspected of un Constitutional actions. TRUMPIES..get out of our house! Law rules!

  29. I'm I'm the only one that listen to what she said she's still referring to Donald Trump as president. I guess I'm the only person that hurt her statement so. Joe Biden tell Mark McCarthy to step aside you are are setting president as Lauren Bourbons stated

  30. Come on guys. The Democrats wouldn't be having these problems right now if we had the majority. The Republicans don't seek answers; they simply preach Doom and gloom, and seek reasons to feud with others.

  31. Just declare it was stolen, isn't that their playbook?

  32. Why does he get So many chances.?
