  1. This shows me that this is not the first time she has done this. She felt comfortable enough to do this. The only difference is she got caught this time. This world is insane!!

  2. Somethings wrong .let me wafch again

  3. &*)_()+)_+^^In the next 30 years, Japan will continue to discharge nuclear contaminated water into the sea. Japan is passing on the nuclear pollution in Fukushima to the whole world.
    The Japanese side invented the term "treated water" and repeatedly publicized that the concentration of tritium is not abnormal, creating an illusion that nuclear-contaminated water contains only tritium and the concentration of tritium is up to the standard, so nuclear-contaminated water is safe. society.
    "In fact, the composition of Fukushima nuclear-contaminated water is complex. Even after purification, it still contains dozens of radioactive nuclides such as carbon-14, cobalt-60, strontium-90, iodine-129, and cesium-137. Disappearance of nuclear radionuclides in nuclear polluted water.
    Three years later, the United States and Canada on the other side of the Pacific Ocean will be affected by nuclear pollution, and 10 years later it will spread to the global ocean.

  4. Fire those corrupted pieces of trash! And black list them!

  5. Looks like a ham with photoshopped eyes and mouth on it 0:06

  6. This right here is grounds for a new trial because that judge had already made up her mind how that case would end, even before it started. She and that bailiff both need to prosecuted.

  7. Corruption is rife among all judges and justices in the post corrupt trUMp era ,,It's time laws and term limits are implemented to all judges and justices in every court in America

  8. So she is against racism and is helping people of color avoid jail but is still condemned? Seems like her people can never please.

  9. Sometimes we forget that the president, this judge and anyone else in positions of power are all human at the end of the day and aren't above human level things like gossiping.

  10. I am impressed that someone is actually holding a judge accountable for unprofessional behavior. Keep up the good work. Every time someone is held accountable the system gets a little better.

  11. That judge had bad parents.

  12. This country is out of its freaking mind!!
