My question is Why can’t these people be charged with contempt when they continue to Lie or Avoid Answering Questions? This type of behavior is Disgusting!
If Congress is not able to hold a witness like this in contempt or have her prosecuted for lying under oath, then why would Anyone ever tell the truth if they can get away with lying? It makes a mockery of the system as a whole and Congress specifically. Real shame.
Not answering a question that has nothing to do with anything is not perjury. Hawley is trying to get her to contradict herself because of what she presented to Congress, in an attempt to make her look bad, simply because she was nominated by Biden. If this was somebody nominated by a Republican then they'd be asking questions about hunting and fishing.
Hawley requested the social media, already having access to it, and then she locked her account because it's private and PERSONAL, which is to be respected under the First Amendment by the Government. Because she locked it, Congress requested it - she said ["No, and here's why"], to which Hawley is trying to get her to contradict herself because she made personal opinion posts which TECHNICALLY "don't fit the description that she provided to Congress." This is a low blow, a cheap shot, and Hawley is just another run of the mill evil person. Thus, it's fitting that he's a Republican.

I'm not even from the Us and i'm sitting here with my mouth open and my head shaking. Un f'n believable! It's one thing that she's lying and at the same time spitting the american ppl in the face with her "answers". But doesn't she feel absolutely stupid? Repeating one and the same thing over and over again? I mean, does she really think that she did a great Job defending herself?
@@Nea-van-R. This is a stupid game of gotcha. Where a question is asked in an earlier hearing and a general answer is given. Then later the politician grills the witness on the details. The whole thing is a stupid waste of time.
Congress needs to institute an immediate disqualification clause for any and all who refuse to answer questions put to them in order to establish their qualifications for the position for which they are hoping to be elected/selected/hired/placed.
It’s becomes a slippery slope. If we start prosecuting them outright, then they will return the favor 10 fold and use the media to exacerbate very ridiculous accusation they put forth. They did it to big T and then tried to prosecute him over caca. Hence him pleading the fifth in everything. So, while I agree, I think I understand why the approach is calling them out, and hopefully, voting them out of a career basically.

I am (accidentally) enrolled with a national Librarianship organization. Last week I received an email about how important it is to have “the first woman” archivist. It urged that all members to immediately write to our US Senator about how important it is to have a “speedy” confirmation. Needless to say, I wrote to mine and told her that this woman is biased and an identity based choice and therefore unsuitable for the post.
She is exactly the type of Cultist that Orwell warned us about. The U.S. archives will be purposefully altered to suit the fantasy beliefs of her Cult if she or anyone like her gets their hands on those archives.
and leftists get mad and cry hate crimes at libsoftiktok for literally just reposting their own public vids... You see they aren't furious their words are getting heard, they are furious their own words make them sound like the villains they envision the right to be
A matter of context is often overlooked and no explanation allowed. Context should always be supplied. It is so easy to take a portion to queer a question.
WHY isn't she being legally held responsible for lying under OATH,! This blatant disregard for the law makes a mockery out of all of us. PROSECUTE HER! 🇺🇸
Saying 'your personal accounts are comprised of posts about ABC' doesn't mean you can never have said anything other than ABC in your posts. It's an inclusive, not exclusive, statement. Just saying since there appears to be some lack of understanding here.
And that's why they tell you to say what you mean when you're being questioned like this. If she didn't mean all she posts is those topics, she shouldn't have said that's all she posted
People like her who refuse to answer simple yes and no questions by continuously stonewalling should receive punishment for their actions with a fine and jail time, especially when they lie under oath to Congress. Ship her down the river with a hefty fine to think about while she is there! We are sick of people like her.
The thing I hate about these things is these people NEVER get held accountable and NEVER get punished!! They just walk out saying to themselves, "whew, glad that's over"
Wow, her lawyer told her to keep repeating that line and not give a straight answer. She knows she's caught and has been informed that the ONLY thing that may save her at this point is if she can dodge these very pointed questions. I think anyone that is asked a yes/no question that starts off with "thank you for the question blabhablhablahbalhb." They are lying and under oath... should be arrested.
It always annoyed me that they would start off with naming the person asking the question and thanking them for it until I learned that that is actually the procedure for getting it into the official record, so they are required to do it....funny, after a while she stopped saying it....

How do people get to avoid answering a congressional question? Shouldn't these people be removed from office until such time that they can participate in a legal hearing?
copy & pasted the BEST answer yet from LynnB-TruckCastreauJr : Congress needs to institute an immediate disqualification clause for any and all who refuse to answer questions put to them in order to establish their qualifications for the position for which they are hoping to be elected.
Because he's asking loaded questions that don't mean anything. He's literally grilling her over her opinions on her personal Twitter. What crime did she break by tweeting those? It makes no sense. That's why he's not pushing this. He is only asking these questions in this format to bring up these tweets and nothing more.
That simply makes them a more popular candidate to the Democrat voters. When Joe Biden bragged about his relationship, "I was 30, she was 12" the Democrat voters in the audience cheered. How they think and what they admire is not the same as normal Americans.
if the cops and the judges are the liars,they also get off free with immunity and the term in an official capacity which literally gives public officials the right to commit felonies. In wisconsin at least it does
Looking into people's personal posts for a govt job doesn't seem reasonable resource wise. They already passed a polygraph....u have to change most people every time we elect a new president. Reasonable? I think not
@@Jeanbanville while I agree that exposing liars is good, having no real consequences for lying leaves room for people to attempt it in the future. Currently, if you get caught lying, oh well. If you don't.... you got away with it. So there's no downside to trying. There needs to be a down side.
America Hawley is a low down dirty lying corrupted disgusting disgrace to our children and the world we live in. Why he is not in jail is beyond me. Hawley and many other Republicans stood world excited Trump mob. Hawley even high fist them. That's a crime against the United States of America. And here is today talking about a dam dog.l mean really with all the problems we have in America. This is all the Republicans so called leaders do is fault find and criticize. They only create problems you never hear them talking about what they can do to help solve the problems we have in America by working together. America this we are paying these low down dirty lying corrupted disgusting disgraceful Republicans maggots to do.
That seems a bit extreme in this circumstance. This is a job interview. While I agree it’s disgusting, I understand millions of people have lied to get a job.
@danielharris9000 I love this! The people who turned a blind eye to Senator Hawley's advancement, and subsequent support of those involved in a terrorist plot to overthrow the government of the US, clutching their pearls about a potential nominee to the ARCHIVES refusing to answer questions from this insurrectionist about her personal opinions.
But you aren't *allowed* to lie before Congress under oath. It's illegal. This woman is a pathological liar. She doesn't deserve *any* government job, Federal, State, or local. Period. She is about as trustworthy as Adam Schiff.
She doesn't want to answer his leading questions...this is lying? Hawley is a snide and manipulative coward who after congratulating the January 6th Congress attackers then ran from them inside the building.
@Marie Smith You're right; all he did was show the others on the committee and us, Americans, that this wokey is not qualified. Great job by Mr. Hawley showing the duplicity of the commies.
Yer job interview got no business digging into your personal life. They only want MMAAA!! GGGGGGHHAA!! cultists. "answer yes or no" is the hallmark of a kangaroo court. She can't answer because she's under audit.
Hmmmmm......I wonder if Trump lying OVER 10,000 TIMES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! as President has ANYTHING AT ALL to do with that? What do you think?
Sadly. There is no standard for punishment for lying to congress. On purpose or not, this lands solely on the shoulders of congressional enforcement. In which they have means, yet refuse to act upon.
You seem to not understand the process. Hawley asked for all of her tweets. That would require her to go through thousands of posts over years, aka a giant waste of time. She gave a breakdown about what she tweets most about as well as everything she legally had to. Had she said I exclusively tweet about my dog/sport team/ historical whatever, then she would have broken the law. Hawley didn't pull any tweets mentioning family time or meals which were not on her list of major things she tweets about. Should we arrest her for not talking about her tweets over thanksgiving? Hawley pulled like 10 tweets from over 6 years. She tweets political posts as often as she goes to the dentist but Hawley acts like that is a massive scandal. All of what Hawley did is to make you mad at a process that you do not understand. He asked dumb questions that he knew were dumb just so you would get angry. Why play into it?

How can people have confidence in their government system if they do not trust those within it. Public posts are not private nor personal. Yet the witness insists that it is. This is clearly a pattern with many brain dead Biden nominees. They dont think they owe millions of Americans any answers because they believe they are entitled to the job. Go to a job interview and answer in the same manor and see how far you get.
Lying under oath means noting any more to many. Like some founding Fathers said, the constitution is for a moral people. Searing on the bible and the constitution means nothing either to the Left adn even some on the Right.

What she's doing, essentially, is telling nosy Josh Hawley that his questions about her private posts are none of his business. Are they applicable to the position she's been nominated for? Why is he asking them? He's picking a bunch of statements that he doesn't like and trying to make them be a reason he should challenge her confirmation. Come clean, Hawley!

@@l.w.paradis2108 According to CNBC: “U.S. Code sections 1621 and 1001 of Title 18. Section 1621 covers general perjury, and stipulates that anyone who “willfully and contrary to such oath states or subscribes any material matter which he does not believe to be true” is guilty of perjury and shall be fined or imprisoned up to five years, or both. Section 1001 covers false statements more generally, without requiring an oath. The section stipulates that “whoever, in any matter within the jurisdiction of the executive, legislative, or judicial branch of the government of the United States, knowingly and willfully” falsifies or conceals information, including before a congressional committee’s inquiry, may also be fined or imprisoned up to five years.” Edit: She directly lied about the contents of her twitter account. She would have been fine if she stonewalled before her statement that it was about her dog, etc. Once she made that statement and reaffirmed it, the stonewalling was to prevent digging the hole deeper, but she already committed perjury.
I am so sick and tired of people being able to circumvent answering questions in congressional hearings and not being held responsible. These people are despicable.
They all meet in a dark web chatroom to share and learn all the different types of distraction and stonewall techniques with trained lawyers and Marxists.

Lying about Twitter and political activism that is too much. Maybe fair would be some months and/or fine BUT an automatic ban of working in the public sector, especially in any chief positions.
She didn't lie about anything he did. He purposely misquoted her at 2:08 by inserting the word "ONLY".. she NEVER claimed her posts ONLY consisted about these things.

Because her personal posts aren't up for debate. She can post whatever she wants on her own personal account. As soon as she posts things on a federal employee account that is supposed to represent the government, then you can cry like the little baby you are.

It doesn't matter which side they are on - politicians need to have their accountability enforced. Otherwise the door for corruption will be forever open.
Well, here we have an elected Legislator grilling an Executive Branch Nominee. Nomination hearings are supposed to confirm or deny the suitability of the individual for the nominated position. I saw nothing to qualify or disqualify her. Rather, I continue to see non-suitability from Hawley for HIS position. I'm more inclined to hold Him accountable for HIS lies and very partisan comments which, if there is mercy in the world, will never be heard from again after the next election.

So, she wasn't afraid to repeat this answer when he initially asked her what her account is about, but when he fact-checked her posts she shuts down and goes in to robot mode.
So if I ever get called to a government hearing I can just repeat the same sentence over and over and nothing happens? Pretty much tells me they have zero power in that regard, so why even hold the hearings? I’ve seen generals, CEOs, and many others do this. It’s ridiculous.
To clarify Hawley knew her answer was I have a private account and an official account, and I dont show bias on my public account. He then grilled her for bias on private account. She kept saying the same answer because he essentially asked the same question over again so he could make a little clip about showing he owned the libs. Hawley, Matt Gaets and if you want a democrat example Corey Booker do this kinda shit all the time and its just sad. But it works.
@@JesiAsh no, when you testify before congress or the senate - its like going to court. Its a job interview, but many judges, inside what is essentially a court room. Everything you submit, everything you say - is evidence. When you are brought before congress or the senate, you are under oath that "I swear to tell the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth..." and in this case, she did not tell the truth. She submitted an official document to the Senate she will not give access to her twitter, then blocked her twitter account (made it private) so members of the senate could not see it. Seemed she didnt do it in time, and they still saw her posts. She said UNDER OATH that her twitter ONLY talks about certain things and nothing else. She specifically said that. Sen. Hawley proved in what is essentially a court room that she lied, and lied under oath. Lying under oath is punishable by being fined and/or imprisonment up to 5 years in prison.
She seems entitled and feels she does not have to explain herself to anyone. She must be backed up by some powerful people to act this way. If this is now imagine after she gets nominated!
She is like Gatty was arrogant and bold. Gatty isn't so smug now. 5 years she could get dropped on her at anytime. Elon totally screwed those twitter nazi's.

Why is this senator asking questions about a nominee's previously expressed private opinions on whether children should wear masks when she is being nominated for a position having nothing to do with children or public health?
She clearly committed perjury. File charges, prosecute, and enforce the penalty. It’s really not difficult to see why these people behave this way, because they are not held accountable.
No. It's not clear. She never said her posts ONLY consisted of the things she listed, and frankly it's silly to think that anyone could comprehensively list ALL the things that are in all their social media posts. So it was an accurate statement to say that her social media posts consisted of those things as long as some of them did. It would only be perjury if she claimed that she DID NOT post the things that Hawley mentioned. Hawley is really reaching for a perjury trap. He's got a better case for contempt of Congress. But really, it's not important that she answer. He has the posts. If he doesn't like them he can vote not to confirm, which is, of course, what he's already decided.
She is doing exactly what she needs to do to get the job. Ignoring the republicans and making the Dems happy. The Dems are the ones hiring her. The GOP were always voting against her. She knew the exact number of votes she was getting before she walked into the room and none of the lies or contempt matter as long as she doesn't give the GOP what they want.

Lying under oath should be punished with immediate jail time. We've been too patient letting liars openly lie
And some public eye lashes too 😜
She should be....especially the snobby attitude after that
Not answering a question that has nothing to do with anything is not perjury. Hawley is trying to get her to contradict herself because of what she presented to Congress, in an attempt to make her look bad, simply because she was nominated by Biden. If this was somebody nominated by a Republican then they'd be asking questions about hunting and fishing.
Hawley requested the social media, already having access to it, and then she locked her account because it's private and PERSONAL, which is to be respected under the First Amendment by the Government. Because she locked it, Congress requested it - she said ["No, and here's why"], to which Hawley is trying to get her to contradict herself because she made personal opinion posts which TECHNICALLY "don't fit the description that she provided to Congress."
This is a low blow, a cheap shot, and Hawley is just another run of the mill evil person. Thus, it's fitting that he's a Republican.
firing squad
with out liers.. we would have no government
This woman should be fine and fired and Jailed ASAP
Charges of Contempt of Congress and perjury seem to be in order. Why aren't the charges being filed?
Because of who controls the Senate and DOJ right now.

I would love her to say "I stand by my posts" but she lacks the integrity it is apparent.
It’s becomes a slippery slope. If we start prosecuting them outright, then they will return the favor 10 fold and use the media to exacerbate very ridiculous accusation they put forth. They did it to big T and then tried to prosecute him over caca. Hence him pleading the fifth in everything. So, while I agree, I think I understand why the approach is calling them out, and hopefully, voting them out of a career basically.

You seem to not understand the process. Hawley asked for all of her tweets. That would require her to go through thousands of posts over years, aka a giant waste of time. She gave a breakdown about what she tweets most about as well as everything she legally had to. Had she said I exclusively tweet about my dog/sport team/ historical whatever, then she would have broken the law. Hawley didn't pull any tweets mentioning family time or meals which were not on her list of major things she tweets about. Should we arrest her for not talking about her tweets over thanksgiving? Hawley pulled like 10 tweets from over 6 years. She tweets political posts as often as she goes to the dentist but Hawley acts like that is a massive scandal. All of what Hawley did is to make you mad at a process that you do not understand. He asked dumb questions that he knew were dumb just so you would get angry. Why play into it?
You love fiction and witch-hunts I guess. Basically you must have a lot of time to waste as well. He’s cherry picking a private social media account which should never be used against anyone for any employment

“U.S. Code sections 1621 and 1001 of Title 18.
Section 1621 covers general perjury, and stipulates that anyone who “willfully and contrary to such oath states or subscribes any material matter which he does not believe to be true” is guilty of perjury and shall be fined or imprisoned up to five years, or both. Section 1001 covers false statements more generally, without requiring an oath. The section stipulates that “whoever, in any matter within the jurisdiction of the executive, legislative, or judicial branch of the government of the United States, knowingly and willfully” falsifies or conceals information, including before a congressional committee’s inquiry, may also be fined or imprisoned up to five years.”
Edit: She directly lied about the contents of her twitter account. She would have been fine if she stonewalled before her statement that it was about her dog, etc. Once she made that statement and reaffirmed it, the stonewalling was to prevent digging the hole deeper, but she already committed perjury.

Y’all shit your pants about lying under oath til it’s on your side… see every one of Trump’s SCROTUM nominees claiming roe was “set in stone”. Unbelievable how anyone can be such a puppet for a party.
DO NOT LET HER BE ANYTHING IN THE GOVT.
Lock her up
Not even a dog catcher
At the bare minimum, she needs a dose of "YOU'RE CANCELLED"!
Why not? She's perfect.
She meets the criteria! Lol
Isint lying under oath a criminal offense? If we want accountability we have to take it ourself. Form a resistance! Be the change the world needs for justice!
Senator Hawley is fantastic. Thank you so much for serving so well.
She needs to go to jail at least 5 years for lying under oath.
Lying about Twitter and political activism that is too much. Maybe fair would be some months and/or fine BUT an automatic ban of working in the public sector, especially in any chief positions.
If that was the case HOW come AMBER HEARD isn't in PRISON 😅
We don't need anymore LIARS 😡😡😡😡😡
Bible says all men are liars.
Then why are you watching and listening to Hawley lying is his specialists subject
I agree. Therefore we should vote out every single Republican.
Carla,
It’s all democrats know…..
We have enough running our country especially from the WH.
Get her out ASAP. 🇺🇸🇺🇸Trump 2024🇺🇸🇺🇸
How does our legal system continue to exist in this way? It is a complete and utter joke.
We NEED to nail these people for contempt. If we let them get away with this it will never stop.
She didn't lie about anything he did. He purposely misquoted her at 2:08 by inserting the word "ONLY".. she NEVER claimed her posts ONLY consisted about these things.
I lied to the police officer one time how was in the military three deployments I told him I was a civilian when they found out I was a Sergeant in the Marine Corps I got my ass kicked cuz I lied
she was still confirmed for the position. These hearings are useless
How is she allowed to get away with this. It’s insanity.
Because her personal posts aren't up for debate. She can post whatever she wants on her own personal account. As soon as she posts things on a federal employee account that is supposed to represent the government, then you can cry like the little baby you are.
She is what Democrats want radicals and anti constitutional bigots to corrupt every government institution!
She's obviously a Democrat
because these hearing and pretty much anything related to this con is just that a con meant to decieve americans into thinking this is real
she wasnt lying under oath and he knows it.
This is outrageous!!! If us normal citizens lie in court we are held in contempt and charged!!! Why aren’t these people?!?!? Privilege at its finest.
She is being attacked for her beliefs,and we are going to have the Same treatment regardless who she works 4
Y’all shit your pants about lying under oath til it’s on your side… see every one of Trump’s SCROTUM nominees claiming roe was “set in stone”. Unbelievable how anyone can be such a puppet for a party.
@Marilyn Keegans Well, her beliefs are incredibly offensive but she is the one seeking placement into an official role. She is NOT being attacked for her beliefs. She is being attacked for lying g to the committee and for refusing to answer very valid questions. She can take that attitude if she wishes - though it simply reveals her as the arrogant hypocritical she is - but she should not serve any role in the US govt.
None ov them are fit to run the country, to me them up at the top are in it for them selfs what ever the concerqenses to the people, look who's in power now.and before hand ,have they really making a difference to the average American.
Exactly. It's not white privileged and never has been. It's the oligarchy vs the people
This woman should never be allow to do anything where she's paid with taxpayers funds!! She's a disgrace and needs to be fired from what she does now! Immediately!
She should be in jail
So right, and what a piece of work!
It’s funny how everyone knows the congress is powerless. They almost laugh at the under oath thing now.
Wow the anger... I hope you keep that rage for both sides of the isle
@@Idellphany both sides are bad but one is complete degeneracy
This is a huge problem.. they don’t have to answer any questions, I’m sick of this behavior.
Lock her up for a long time !!
She keeps looking away. She can’t solidly hold his gaze. She’s ashamed. Not for what she said, but for being called out for her careless and damning lies. She should be more than ashamed.
Trump sure as heck didn't show no shame
True and false,
She is looking to the chair, a fellow
wooden democrat to bail her out
Personally I wouldn't confuse shame with disgust. In this case we don't need to imagine what it must be like having to testify
before a known traitor like Representative Hawley.
@@swords1231 no. The question is valid and she knows it. She’s been caught as a hypocrite and that’s very shameful.
@@Marshmallow_Trees Call it what you will on her part but treason is treason and as such Hawley who bears at least the shame if not the guilt of treason is a travesty of American justice sitting upon an investigative committee instead of residing in a prison cell.
Wow that was unbelievable! She should be removed as a nominee immediately Period end of story. She doesn't deserve the chance to actually get voted in after that & she should be charged for lying under oath.
@earforenglish Santos should be removed for lying
String her up
Well, she has proven in her own posts her disdain for the Republicans and the Party. So no go for her qualifications..
@@earforenglish5867 Yes. Like him too. But if we acted exactly like the Democrats we would not care what he did or said we would keep him.
Why isn't she being led off to the congressional jail right now while perjury charges are Pressed? She has the right to her opinions, she does not have the right to flat out lie and deceive congress under a oath that she voluntarily took.
Why is her social media in her personal capacity but anyone on their social media that dared to question the vacks (misspell on purpose) or the c virus was cancelled, why couldn't they argue with the same damn answer as her?? Grrr!🤨😠
😄😄
Everytime he asked “what about” I cheered.
Was waiting for him to do his best Matthew Lillard impression "But wait, THERE'S MORE!!!"
It doesn't matter which side they are on - politicians need to have their accountability enforced. Otherwise the door for corruption will be forever open.
The built a whole city on it. At least with American politics they are kinda funny lol.
Well, here we have an elected Legislator grilling an Executive Branch Nominee. Nomination hearings are supposed to confirm or deny the suitability of the individual for the nominated position. I saw nothing to qualify or disqualify her. Rather, I continue to see non-suitability from Hawley for HIS position. I'm more inclined to hold Him accountable for HIS lies and very partisan comments which, if there is mercy in the world, will never be heard from again after the next election.
Democrats: *Laughs in above the law*
@@nortiusmaximus1789 BLAHHH, BLAHHH, BLAHHH.......
@@nortiusmaximus1789 simply put, he doesn't
Know what he's doing. She is stonewalling because he is asking questions that are superficial and have nothing to do with the post she's nominated for
She should have st own up to it ...she sounds worse by straight up being deceitful and dodging her guilt.
It’s funny because she’s trying to use the public employee defense under the first amendment to avoid answering the questions, but she’s not employed by them yet so it doesn’t apply to her. Smh 🤦♂️
YEP! They don't fear lieing to Congress or under oath.. because they know nothing will happen..
She was attempting to use the upitty femail defense.
I have nonidea if ur right but if u are, damn that's some cheek she has
this directly relates to national security and until they are compelled by force these games will continue.
And "they" know they wont' be prosecuted either; The new word for prosecuted and imprisonment wll be " Early Retirement, " and they're very AWARE of it. (Falsie & Crimes Against Humanity; The Biden.)
WAIT A MINUTE MISS PRESS Secretary! WHO TRAFFICKED 90 PLANES full of women and children to various "undisclosed" areas of the United States LAST YEAR ? Didn't KAMALA state finally, the proper TERM is " Asylum Seekers."..and that " Our borders are secure?" Seeing a few problems at our borders ?KEEPING US DISTRACTED from all previous mismanagements. Joe lets them in via all of the boarders, and two governors STEPPED UP TO THE PLATE TO SAY "NO ", and bused some to New York. WHO'S PROBLEM WAS THIS and no doubt it's not going to get better, fast? What they DON'T say, is that the parents are being used as workers too? The hypocrisy of the fake administration of gangsters who think of no one else but their own pocketbooks. Howdy Doody should be resolving the problems he created!
The Word "Corporation" uses the word "Care" continually; C.A.R.E. apparently means "can avoid responding to Everyone!"
"Remembering Afghanistan"
"Wretch Like Me" .
"I Ain't no Middleman"

So, she wasn't afraid to repeat this answer when he initially asked her what her account is about, but when he fact-checked her posts she shuts down and goes in to robot mode.
LOL, Thats not what happend. You lack education.
@@CALI-CALI-CALI and you lack eyes and a brain apparently. That's exactly what happened.
@@chickbowdrie4750 No, its not. Youre beyond ignorant.
Just like every democrat they reek of ignorance.
Where are the other 4 comments???
So if I ever get called to a government hearing I can just repeat the same sentence over and over and nothing happens? Pretty much tells me they have zero power in that regard, so why even hold the hearings? I’ve seen generals, CEOs, and many others do this. It’s ridiculous.
It was a job interview... hopefully nothing will happen and she will get nothing for a long time
To clarify Hawley knew her answer was I have a private account and an official account, and I dont show bias on my public account. He then grilled her for bias on private account. She kept saying the same answer because he essentially asked the same question over again so he could make a little clip about showing he owned the libs. Hawley, Matt Gaets and if you want a democrat example Corey Booker do this kinda shit all the time and its just sad. But it works.
They're law makers not judges. She's not in court. It's annoying but that's just the reality.
Just tell people your the president enough times and people will just believe you
@@JesiAsh no, when you testify before congress or the senate - its like going to court. Its a job interview, but many judges, inside what is essentially a court room. Everything you submit, everything you say - is evidence. When you are brought before congress or the senate, you are under oath that "I swear to tell the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth..." and in this case, she did not tell the truth. She submitted an official document to the Senate she will not give access to her twitter, then blocked her twitter account (made it private) so members of the senate could not see it. Seemed she didnt do it in time, and they still saw her posts. She said UNDER OATH that her twitter ONLY talks about certain things and nothing else. She specifically said that. Sen. Hawley proved in what is essentially a court room that she lied, and lied under oath. Lying under oath is punishable by being fined and/or imprisonment up to 5 years in prison.
Im real tired of people being put infront of supreme counts and not asnwering questions. Its a waste of everyones money. Whats the point?
She seems entitled and feels she does not have to explain herself to anyone. She must be backed up by some powerful people to act this way. If this is now imagine after she gets nominated!
She is like Gatty was arrogant and bold. Gatty isn't so smug now. 5 years she could get dropped on her at anytime.
Elon totally screwed those twitter nazi's.
I’m sure Soros is a huge supporter.
She doesn't even have to be there. Nothing will happen to her for lying under oath
Dems will vote for anyone as long as they had a D next to their name. I mean, Pennsylvania only has one senator now because that's what they voted for.
She committed perjury. It's not even debatable.
so what... Nothing will happen. Nothing EVER happens... It's ALL corrupt.
It really doesn't matter. The entire line of questions is just more of the spineless Republican grandstanding that we've all grown accustomed to. Nothing was ever going to come of it.
@@ATigerShark no, it’s another democrat that lacks the courage to stand by their beliefs and LIE about it in committee under oath. The left wing of American politics have been exposed as the complete SCUM that they are.
Not answering a question that has nothing to do with anything is not perjury. Hawley is trying to get her to contradict herself because of what she presented to Congress, in an attempt to make her look bad, simply because she was nominated by Biden. If this was somebody nominated by a Republican then they'd be asking questions about hunting and fishing.
Hawley requested the social media, already having access to it, and then she locked her account because it's private and PERSONAL, which is to be respected under the First Amendment by the Government. Because she locked it, Congress requested it - she said ["No, and here's why"], to which Hawley is trying to get her to contradict herself because she made personal opinion posts which TECHNICALLY "don't fit the description that she provided to Congress."
This is a low blow, a cheap shot, and Hawley is just another run of the mill evil person. Thus, it's fitting that he's a Republican.
@@ATigerSharkwrong. It shows that she is a liar and her own words can't be trusted. Bravo!!!!! You must be dense not seeing how it discredited her completely. She needs to be held in contempt and punished and removed from her position.
“I swore an oath, that I will not answer anything you ask me!” Disqualified!
Sherrod Brown thanks Senator Kennedy for his questions about Iran and then votes to fund Iran. How crazy is our government?
If it’s arrest able offense to lie under oath. Why isn’t she being arrested? SMH 🤯
Because we have a freedom is speech in this country..she can post what ever she wanted on her Twitter account..so long as she does not incite violence. Deal with it.
Trump LIED every day of his presidency - UNDER OATH TO THE CONSTITUTION!
@@celieneohara521 😂🤣🤣🤣🤣 you are funny 😂🤣😂😂
@@zebra3962 It actually has nothing to do with what she actually posted, but rather that she is actively lying under oath.
@@bagelbunz2244 Agreed. She has her free speech and opinions, but she lied about what she posted. It is not her free speech that got her into trouble, it was telling big fat porky pies to congress.
McDonald’s applicants do better answering questions than she does… and Brandon wants this for us..
For second there I thought when he said are you a lawyer she would say ‘My social media is my personal compacity’ 😂
Thank you Josh Hawley!!! You are amazing!!!!
We need more senators like you
Be careful for what you wish for
@@kennethnorris6950 Because with more senators like Sen. Hawley we could get are country back from those who are trying to destroy it!
you only saw a woman not give a damn about a man who was under the impression that he was doing something impactful...and cooked it up in your head with only your existing knowledge, perception and your mental dynamics...and what came out of the stove was batman
We need more senators who attempt to overthrow the government?
@Selenarion he didn't though.. nice job spreading lies and misinformation though.. you should be proud of yourself..smh..
Seriously if you answered questions during a disciplinary hearing from your employer in this way they would rightly fire you!!!!!!
...and yet 30% of the country was perfectly fine with republicans obstructing justice, lying under oath, and ignoring congressional subpoenas. And we wonder where she gets it from.
Why in the Hell do they even have these hearings when NO one is going to answer a Damn Question?!
Why is this senator asking questions about a nominee's previously expressed private opinions on whether children should wear masks when she is being nominated for a position having nothing to do with children or public health?
@@johnstuartsmithLefist ideology = Partisan Ideology
How much do I love this chap 😊 Thank goodness for the voice of reason
She clearly committed perjury. File charges, prosecute, and enforce the penalty. It’s really not difficult to see why these people behave this way, because they are not held accountable.
That’s what’s so frustrating about watching these hearings. Knowing that they get away with this type of behavior.
You're talking about republicans, right!
@@albertcarey181 Are you not watching the same video? What are your thoughts on this woman refusing to answer questions?
@@samsara-summermooncomehome5881 He has no thoughts. That takes a brain, which he clearly lacks.
No. It's not clear. She never said her posts ONLY consisted of the things she listed, and frankly it's silly to think that anyone could comprehensively list ALL the things that are in all their social media posts. So it was an accurate statement to say that her social media posts consisted of those things as long as some of them did. It would only be perjury if she claimed that she DID NOT post the things that Hawley mentioned. Hawley is really reaching for a perjury trap. He's got a better case for contempt of Congress. But really, it's not important that she answer. He has the posts. If he doesn't like them he can vote not to confirm, which is, of course, what he's already decided.
Imagine going on a job interview and refusing to answer questions from an employer
She is doing exactly what she needs to do to get the job. Ignoring the republicans and making the Dems happy. The Dems are the ones hiring her. The GOP were always voting against her. She knew the exact number of votes she was getting before she walked into the room and none of the lies or contempt matter as long as she doesn't give the GOP what they want.
@@SimonASNG GOP has attacked just about all the noms this session. How many dems & reps on this particular committee anyway? After all, the R.'s keep throwing dems OFF committees...who's left? lol
Why would your interviewer ask the questions Hawley is asking? He says she is lying but she simply refuses to answer his leading questions.
@@davidherz9968but she did lie, maybe you should watch the beginning of the video we’re she says under oath that she didn’t put anything political on her twitter
@@melaniejean85 Dems did it first. They made politics so dirty. GoP is just behaving the same way.
But it doesn't help when the Dems nominate people for non-partisan positions because of their extremely partisan past and then get upset when the GOP notice.
Get her senator.
If I or any other common citizen talked/acted/lied like that while under oath, we'd be arrested, held in contempt. This is nuts.
If she were in any danger, she'd be pleading the fifth. Nobody has to testify anywhere.
Say what?
She can post online just like you can. And she answers that she did that. So you're saying only people with certain political beliefs can post online and work for government? So much for free speech then.
@Red Pilette: She can post all she wants, but the contents show her personal opinions disqualify her for the nominated position.
The subject is not important. She was being flippant when she (mis) described the content of her Twitter posts.
She was unwise in passing it off that way, but anyone, including Hawley, who thinks it's an important crime is a fool.
I see time after time, these nominees get torn to bits! But, then we find they were approved anyway? Did he prevent her from being passed?
Awesome job Josh Hawley ! … Your followup, is EVERYTHING the voters want to see !
Didn't he give critical information to The Jan 6th rioters (terrorists) that could have led to his and his colleague's deaths? Awesome job Josh Hawley!
@@MikeClarks whoa you Jan 6th committee people have been left behind. There are far too many more people who don't give a shit about Jan 6th then actually wanting answers from individuals in government who clearly have something to hide.
@@MikeClarks Right... Jan 6th "rioters" who were unarmed, peaceful and didn't kill a single person were "terrorists"? No, no they are not. You know who ARE terrorists? BLM and Antifa rioters who went out and burned down businesses and killed people. But of course you don't believe that at all, cause you are brain washed.
Love this! It’s like watching someone slipping on ice and about to fall😂
To me, it's like watching democrars abuse the system with lies and corruption and get away with it, yet again.
Not falling quickly enough, though. 🤨
🥳🥳🥳😂😂😂
She already fell and cracked her skull on the ice. Now just waiting for the bleeding to start. And she tripped herself.
These evil people will lie to your face over and over without facing any punishment, and they know it.
That's the reason why the Jan 6th committee was formed, so you're right.
