  1. But the thing is Republicans don’t care 🤷🏾‍♀️….

  2. If mankind minus one were of one opinion, then mankind is no more justified in silencing the one than the one – if he (or she) had the power – would be justified in silencing mankind. – John Stuart Mill, philosopher and economist (1806-1873)

  3. I think we can also give some space to Biden putting together a good team and then letting them do their jobs. He is a manager with many irons in the fire. Didn’t foresee a recession? Oh my goodness. As if the “recession” is a local problem.
    I think Biden knew that working to build a an historic coalition of world leaders to combat global challenges would be the most important thing he could do to prevent global problems like WAR, recession and the demise of a democratic, laws-based approach to governing.
    He is doing a worthy job, as someone said, and has a global view of even domestic problems which some aren’t getting as they pursue their own self-oriented rise to power and influence. Domestically, in order to turn around the damage done to our system in the tRump years specifically, he was always going to need more time than one term and/or a more people-oriented representation in congress. He didn’t get that. What he did get was a sabotaged admin system, a narrow margin against the cynical and power-driven congressional membership that allowed tRump to exist, and an out of control covid epidemic. He managed to rein all of that in despite the corruption that runs rampant in the republican party at this time. He’s not done yet … he needs that next 4 years. And, he needs a better margin in the House and Senate.
    He was ready when Putin decided to take his only shot at “taking” Ukraine. Biden was not daunted but inspired to actively engage others in a global response to the invasion that included action on a number of issues that needed attention even before the Feb24 invasion of World Peace.
    I think he is doing a great job. He needs and deserves our support.

  4. lets not forget that the conservative death squads sent by trump to the Capitol Building had orders to murder as many members of Congress they could hunt down

  5. Biden can’t run again and Harris mustn’t even think about it. New blood. New fighters in the ring. But please, please not any of the weak assortment we had last time. The dems need to find some ferocious talent who are strong and can fight well.

  6. Is it true that they kept the info quiet until their book was released? If so they should be questioned on it.

  7. James Comey should be encouraged to run for presidency. He is a man of honor and integrity. I’m not sure America is ready for a female president yet.

  8. Yes, These actual reporters saved and released this important info for full impact on the Jan 6th Coup!
    Was a good call… In the state this country is in, definitely need to put ALL the info out there,
    make a case, and let the DOJ finally do its JOB!!!

  9. Hold on here: the current VP felt disrespected when people didn't stand up as she entered the room, but when Biden was VP, they did. Who is wrong, the VP, or the men who didn't stand? I know the answer. Sauce for the goose, sauce… ):-{

  10. I'm sure he did let's see the proof. lol Jan 6 is not going to turn out as planned. It's gonna be a nuke blowing up in there face this time. All the baseless he said she said will not work once videos can no longer be keep from public. What there leaving out is all the cell phone videos u tube couldn't take down fast enough showing busses of people being brought to capital to play in the hoax that's all on capital videos. The people yelling over reporters it's all fake there actors. And the best one Ashley Babette and John Epps. The minute Ashley Babette videos are reviewed by experts it will be un arguably it's all fake and a bad job too. no blood no impact cloud no impact Jenkins reactions and no excuse for deadly force. judicial watch has already got videos showing capital police letting them in taking selfies with the people they all stayed in ropes and thought it was free tour with 2 hotdogs day. don't believe that just go to court records of all the cases there dropping the ones they don't drop are mainly trespassing cases. So once mid term stomping is over the the truth will come out and hopefully you guys don't get abnesure again like last 9 times the media hype propgander on you and why do you think Obama e.o a law making it legal to propagandist America public with no legal consequences. why do you think Trump left it we are all being played bur we allow it so what does that say. Oh yeah what damage did capital building sustain on that dreadful day that will be remembered for ever that's right pretty much nothing meaning some one released electronic locks to let people in they know exactly where and when locks where unlocked by capital police letting crowd in.lol ask for facts instead of baseless propgander by media.

  11. The Republicans would love to see the country on life support so they can rise to positions of power.

  12. Trump has serious dirt on Lindsey Graham. That is obvious. Probably has something to do with underaged boys.

  13. Manchin and Sinema are unredeemable obstructionists who pretend they are open to negotiation.

  14. From the atmosphere that Martin describes, it sounds as if all who were not part of the insurrection were passengers on a hijacked airline on 9/11.

  15. Graham says one thing does another

  16. NBC's new partnership with Australia's 'Sky News', [Trump Lovers] which seems to be flying under the radar!!!

    https://youtu.be/Z7X-LplRcMM

  17. Time overdue for Lindsay Graham and Mitch McConnell to head out to pasture. Spineless.

  18. Republicans feed this monster for four years. Gave tRump to continue breaking our institutions……What did they think Trump would do?

  19. THESE POLITICIANS ARE NOT FOR AMERICANS
    WHATSOEVER
    A
    BUNCH OF CRIMINALS
    NEEDING TO BE
    ELIMINATED COMPLETELY

  20. WHEN WINDY CITY BOTCHES SURGERY NO JUSTICE OR REPAIR DESTROYING LIVES BY LAWS AGAINST CITIZENS BORN HERE…….MAKING MORE HOMELESS.

    BUT HOWEVER ILLEGAL LAW BREAKER GET HURT ENTERING COUNTRY
    GETS COMPLETE SURGERY AND PUNITIVE DAMAGES 1.5 MILLION EACH.
    REVOLUTIONARY WAR IS REQUIRED AMERICANS
    UNAMERICAN AGENTS PORTRAYING LAW MAKERS ARE WRITING UNAMERICAN
    UNACCEPTABLE
    ACTS AGAINST CITIZENS.

    ELECTIONS MUST BE COMPLETELY VETTED FOR
    WHO HOW MANY
    WHEREAS WE'RE WATCHING ACTIONS OF
    ALLEGED GOVERNMENT

  21. He definitely looked the other way when it came to the capital police.

  22. These two so-called reporters were working for and paid a handsome salary by the New York Times when they came into possession of the McCarthy tapes months ago. But did they reveal the contents of those tapes then, when the information could have made a difference in the public's perception about the work of the House's January 6 Commission? No, they CHOSE to wait — presumably with the knowledge and consent of their editors — to do so until right before their book was published, thereby guaranteeing that the book would sell well and guaranteeing them a handsome profit from book sales.

    IMHO, the NYT should fire these two reporters (and their bosses) because they worked on a private project on company time AND they utterly failed in their PRIMARY responsibility to tell the truth to the public in a timely manner about the people in power and hold the powerful to be accountable for their behavior. In the end, these two "reporters"⁹ are just glorified grifters who used their jobs to make money on future book sales.

    And it was genuinely disgusting that Chucky boy didn't ask these "reporters" why they didn't reveal the contents of the McCarthy tapes right afterthey came into possessìon of the tapes and if they believe they utterly failed their responsibility to NYT readers and the genral public by keeping this information away from the public untìl it would guarantee bigger profits from the future sales of their book.

  23. "Lindsey Graham Threatened Use Of The 25th Amendment On January 6th" so let's #ConvinceItForward

  24. Mitch is worse than a flat-out coward.

  25. Waiting for Lindsay to deny this on fox in 5 4 3 2…..

  26. Please retire and do not seek re-election Biden

  27. Yeah, and you can add to that mix of developments another major Factor: Ukraine. Personally, I and likely many other Americans think that President Biden has done a worthy job in leading our contribution as the United States to defeat Putin's aggression against a fledgling democracy, Ukraine. Their persevering resistance to repel this attack is inspiring to us who have been awakened recently to our own government's fragility; the vulnerabilities of democracy itself – as a way of thinking how to improve the quality of a large system such as ours. It seems to always go back to The Problem of the Many and the One.

  28. Senator Harris became the VP. She must be respected in whatever manner the VP is normally treated. Give her the same respect that Biden had as VP.

  29. As a Malaysian, watching your discourse on Donald Trump and American politics, I can't help but conclude that DEMOCRACY is utterly dysfunctional in US.

    The GOP is embracing politics of DIVISION, RACISM, BIGOTRY, AND THE BIG LIE.

    They have nothing constructive or policies of NATIONAL INTERESTS.

  30. Why have these gentlemen on and not let them tell their story as they know it?

  31. Republican Party is greatest threat to humanity QAnon Seditionist on nose nose 👃. Candy 🍭. ). V. T. O.

  32. ⭐️⭐️⭐️TRUMP2020⭐️⭐️⭐️

  33. When are people going to realize you can't take the word of Lindsay Graham?

  34. How do we care about any of this when we don't have freedom of speech or freedom of press we can't watch the Russian Channel on YouTube that's been blocked we can't hear Putin's messages or his announcements we just get to hear your interpretation of them these people at the top need to be in jail

  35. TRUMP IS STUPID.

    Why are Trump's trials taking so long? JAIL TREASONOUS TRAITOR TRUMP.

    Thank God, every country on Earth except America have NOT become followers of the Fox TV/News Max/Facebook religion.

    WE LIVE IN A GENERATION WHERE TEASING AND LAUGHING AT AMERICANS IS THE NORM.

  36. Lindsey Graham, Chuck Todd. Go away….

  37. I support Joe Biden and the West's stabilization of Democracy in the face of the authoritarians such as Xi and Putin.

  38. It’s absolutely breathtaking how obsessed you ppl are with Trump and January 6th. Especially after everything that has come to light the past 6 months. But I guess you would need to be consuming something besides bias media to know about all that. I’m so glad this narrative is dying. As much as I hate watching liberal media, I’m glad that I do. It reminds me of why I’m a libertarian.

  39. Trump has a trick up his sleeve, the G.O.P. He's only dumb when he's facing charges.

  40. Trump's a terrorist ! Isn't anyone even wants to here about his crap ! Waste of time !
