All this interview shows is how both sides are corrupt. And both have a long list of illegal activity. 😂
THERE NEEDS TO BE A NATIONAL PROTEST AGAINST GAS PRICE GOUGING…….
Pointless. All tv shows do this bickering knowing full well they are inviting a true conservative who has to hold their GOP stance. It's a performance for the host be "I'm not the problem" to people who already will vote blue. Just a waste of important time that could be used to deliver real new facts that actually persuade people to change their votes.
Gym Jordan says it was difficult to watch the beating of Tyre Nichols. Hmmmm. I didn't think he would ever say anything was difficult to watch after his time as an assistant wrestling coach at Ohio State. Gym never says specifics about what to do. He always talks in distraction to throw off the questions. Now about the weaponization of law enforcement. It was mentioned by Gym that 25 parents were investigated by the FBI for tips they made a threat. Jordan then says no arrests were made. And what Chuck Todd asks is isn't that their job to investigate tips? My question to Gym is if they didn't investigate those tips and someone was murdered, wouldn't that put the FBI on the hot seat? Wouldn't somebody be legally and morally responsible for the death of somebody? He says that a lady, who was a member of the Mothers of Liberty was questioned. Now I would like to know why she was questioned. My guess is there is good reason. He insinuates because she was a member of a right wing group Moms for Liberty. Then he says a fictitious Smith won't go to a board meeting to speak out, because another person she knows as been questioned. Well, if Mrs Jones made a threatening remark, she should be questioned about it. That's what any law enforcement agency is supposed to do. "If you are concerned about the weaponization of the Justice Department during the Biden years, why are you not concerned about it during the Trump years?" Checkmate! Jordan is embarrassing himself. He is not on Fox now. He is being confronted with facts. This is epic.
He has no clue! Useless! Talks like a nazi from 1940s congress. Weaponization! The optimum word from jacket off .
Although feeling anger over yet another brutal police killing is justified, burning cars and looting only creates more support for creating a police state from Conservatives. What people need to do is identify the companies that donate to politicians that are against police reform and boycott all aspects of their business.
Who ever flagged to video is extremely evil 👿
Isn't it funny how sensitive people are out there that they would deem this video offensive and inappropriate.
HAHAHAHAHA.
Democrats are Karens, they complain when they hear things that they don't like, they say it's offensive. How are we supposed to have honest debate out there?
Chuck ask some hard questions, Jim answered those questions, each person held their own. It was professional, there was no cussing or name-calling. But yet will Democrats want to call this offensive, what is going on with this country?
I get it, they disagree with Jim Jordan, but come on. You may want to call his statements incorrect, you want to say he was lying, you want to say that he was manipulating the truth, that's all fine, but don't say it's offensive because you don't agree.
If people on either sides of the aisle can't sit down and talk to one another. Or Democrats can't watch a video of a debate between the left and the right, we already lost. The difference between us and other countries, is that we have the freedom of speech. I don't want to live in a country where our speech is deemed inappropriate, offensive to the extent where people cannot express themselves.
In the olden days of the 1990s, what the people used to do when faced with offensive speech, they did something pretty novel for today's standards, which might surprise a lot of viewers of MSNBC. What they did was, they turned off the TV or they just walked away from those who speech was offensive.
I don't like hearing Joe Biden all the time, sometimes he has offensive speech like when you talk about black people in locking them up in chains or putting them away for drug offenses. Donald Trump is also offensive, but yeah I have a choice to turn off the channel or watch. If you are offended why are you still watching that's my question?
This Jordan guy is a joke!
These cops were doing their job the way they were trained. It's obvious, they were all on the same page without any overt communication. I completely disagree, training absolutely matters.
“States Rights” is the mantra of the southern states who wanted to keep slaves.
Talking to Jim Jordan is like asking Ted Bundy about what shd be done to Rapist’s and Serial Killers.
Did you really think he Jordan has a 🧠🧠 Brain..just my opinion but many PPL Republicians Democratics and Independents know that he doesn't …they don't respect him ..I feel sorry for his family his legacy that he did had….has gone down the toilet 🚽 in my opinion..it is sad 😢😢 for his family and kids WOW that is what he want to leave them..
I got to keep saying it. Police in this country is out of control.
he sounds like a reporter for the National Enquirer…
Does this mfker ever change his shirt?
The biggest wasteful government spending. is wasted on paying politicians. Cut their pay and benefits!!!
Chuckles Todd is clearly not in the wrong position. He continues to use arguments, proved false data or obfuscates the real facts. I see him as a bed wetter!
It's funny to hear Jordan deflect. When asked about trump lying he answers with "Biden did this". He's using grade school logic in Congress. A normal logical answer would be anyone who defys a subpoena is subject to a lawful response. Trump has been labeled by more than one Republican placed judge as a "habitual law breaker and frivolity of our justice system". He's actually suing Woodward for publishing the conversations he agreed to be recorded and reported on. He should be suing Crayola and Elmer's for screwing up his face and hair. Anyone who knows Trump the man knows he's a piece of 💩 and and egomaniacal bigoted narcissist. And that's backed up and facts and psychiatry. Ask any shrink what they would classify Trump as, and morons think he actually cares about them?? Morons
So if a person)parent who owns multiple firearms and makes threats they shouldn't be looked at according to Jordan. Ole Jim has a habit of ignoring criminal action he's been doing it since college. Why can't he just be honest and say Republicans are in control so their going after the Democrats or progressives. Meanwhile they're actually actively trying to stop progress and even evolution by denying reality and chooyto indoctrinate through ignorance. When you have a large percentage of leaders who actually believe in fairy tales and mythology like a god man who walked on water and turned it into wine then should we really be surprised when they illogically face reality? Religion ie man's longest running con game has invented thousands of gods and religions and never not once have they backed up their claims with one single tiny piece of evidence the supernatural so of of course they are going to deny any progress that threatens their ignorance and/or indoctrination. Ps insert any god you like they're all imaginary except for the one you believe in right?
What a cover-up artist, at his best
2016 election, they came out and said that they were still investigating Hillary Clinton, a week before the election
As an American I’m tired and appalled by politicians that come on news shows with lies and playing games. 99% of the time it is Republicans and the reporters has to drag them from their lies and confront them with real facts. Chuck Todd destroyed Jim Jordan and on Face the Nation Margaret Brennan really exposed Kevin McCarthy. I’m glad reporters aren’t afraid to challenge Politicians anymore. Anyone who come on news shows and lies or twist the truth should be challenged and put to shame.
Great job Chuck. Jim Jordan got “Chucked Up” today
This behavior by police happens every day, but you don't think there's anything you can do, no video, no body, no problem.
Why do the news even bother with people like Jim Jordan? He's one of Trump's men. Probably in on j6. Not fit for the office or even to live in this country
PBS people take shows to the next level. They keep it real and don’t play partisan politics.
