When Trump responded to the reporter's question about the US responsibility for the Iranian school bombing with " I don't know about it", the reporter should also have responded with "perhaps you need to retake another one of your "cognitive" tests!".
🎯
You're the president how do you not know?
*When Trump responded to reporter’s question about the U.S. responsibility for the Iranian school bombing with “I don’t know it.” The reporter should also have said “PERHAPS YOU NEED TO TAKE ANOTHER COGNITIVE TEST.”*

wish somebody with a pair would have asked the same with Jotato for just being severely incompetent. You are a major loser...go figure
@BeakNClook in the mirror.
Thank you for telling the truth! Even when others are scared of it! We need to quit the Armageddon cycle! Please help us wake up america! And keep on doing what you do as far as your integrity to journalism😊
👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼well said!
TRUTH HURTS!!! The VIDEO is no longer available...
He should have been impeached for that lie alone
... along with the 50,000+ lies he's told while in office....
Definately
@mrhanman69exactly
Everyone who is physically able MUST join the No Kings protest March 28th! These non-violent, mass mobilizations of the resistance matter. Make a plan now to attend. There are protests within driving distance of everyone, nationwide. It feels better to do something positive and meet fellow resisters, than to doomscroll. Blessings to all!
how’d that last one work
My niece's baby shower is on that day. Luckily there are several protests at home, at different times. I will be able to go to one, just for an hour because I have to drive 2 hours to get to where im going. Every little bit counts
@judyschlick7172get a life
💜💜💜💜
I applaud this protest, but peaceful protests are not the answer. Trump and his cronies don’t care about people marching he does not care he doesn’t care about military people dying. He doesn’t care about schools being blown up and he’ll just laugh like he did at the women’s march during his first term.
Thank you Lawrence for all you do! Your friend in South Dakota ❤
I hope he knows the world will celebrate at the news of the big beautiful obituary someday.
Yep!
Thank you Lawrence. You are the best. Keep up the good work.❤
I would love to help him write his commentary
"I don't know about that" = "I don't care about that"
Thank you, Lawrence, for caring about that .
One hundred little girls killed by trump. When is Congress going to take responsibility and get this monster and his minions out of office!
When Congress is no longer controlled by Trump bootlickers who put loyalty to him above their sworn duty to the US Constitution.
I love this format!! ❤ impeccable writing and facting.
Shame on the people who are “Not” working for the people of America! Why are they there? It’s time for “Term Limits!”
Today´s leader of Iran, Mojtaba Khamenei, has very grave and heavy grudges and hate against tRUMP, against MAGA, ... and unfortunate against the USA. tRUMP not only killed Mojtaba Khamenei´s father; by the same tomahawk, tRUMP also murdered: *Mojatba´s wife, mother, and a baby son.*
tRump also bombed a girls school. These girls were of PRIMARY SCHOOL AGE! tRump you are toast. The Iranian are coming for you...
Lots for revenge! trumps followers unfortunately don't see it that way, like say Lindsay Graham, just one of to many!
We can thank Trump for decades of grudges and attacks by so many affected. We also destroyed an Iranian navy vessel killing so many officers after conducting exercises. We did a Pearl Harbor on them. What a Shane, cowardly thing to do. A sucker punch, a lie, so so un-American. We will pay a heavy price for decades.
Well done Georgia! Love you Lawrence 💙💙💙
Truth to power 💪 💙 🎉
Shameful and disastrous !
Thank you!
This regime is run by malignant narcissists. Incompetent and insecure people
This is a very dishonest president and I believed his entire life is based on dishonesty and deceiving.
Yeah Lawrence doesnt seem to be going off of facts as much as opinions and feelings but what can you do
@kpk12793You have no reading comprehension. He is describing tRump's behavior and actions.
I think you mean "President" rather than what you wrote and I agree with you wholeheartedly.
@johnferguson4089yes I intended to types president, thank you for the ratification 😊.
Check your voter registration. Get others to register. Verify your polling site before you go. Verify ballot drop off locations. Red states may try to create chaos. Check with the Secretary of State’s office for information. Your town’s voter registration office can also provide information. Your local library may also provide information. Ask seniors in your community if they need assistance. Create a neighborhood or community election watch. Get the names and phone numbers of organizations that assist voters in understanding election laws and provide legal assistance.
Is it true that DOGE is going to use SSA information to register and vote for dead people and perceived "enemies" so it looks like they voted twice and prosecute them????? 😮-
I wouldn’t put it past them!
@kandacecowen9122 Absolutely! The Department Of Government Evisceration carries on its Very Strongly Patriotic Work. MAGAT's AmeriKKKa!
Yes the dude pushing for voter id is trying to commit voter fraud not the party trying to do away with it and flood us with millions of illegals.
@kpk12793 This is a lie. The only ones committing rare voter fraud are Trump’s supporters. Follow the evidence not the lies of racists.
The very fact that an unvetted and partisan twenty something hired by a ketamine addicted Trump donor was able to steal our Social Security information and perhaps sell or use it to damage election integrity tells us all we need to know about the bad faith of the Trump regime and its supporters. They have committed crimes and must be held accountable.
Well, the trump gang did fire all the experts in all departments and put in friends they wanted to favorite
Criminal hubris, all of 'em!
I am still bewildered how anyone can choose to have Trump lead them, how how how how
Failed Drag Queen JD Vance isn’t any better 😂
I think it is ignorance and a failure of our education system. Ignorant people don't think things through because they are missing information.
@avidnongetit8710 Dead right! Keep the people ignorant! Look at the education systems worldwide and not only America. Stupid 'woke' ideas are ruining this world. Minority groups are running things. EDUCATE yourselves and look at the etymology of words. You will learn a lot. Check the meaning behind words, find out what they really mean. the information is easily available. Listen to the late Jordan Maxwell on many subjects, he sums it all up as does Paul Wallis. The late Manly P. Hall is another speaker you should hear and take notice of. Educate yourselves, don't listen to all the fake news, most of it is wrong! EDUCATE YOURSELVES, it's the only way out of the Trump mess!
Magnificent.
I don't know why they haven't called Maureen Comey before this. Oh wait, maybe I do know.
Enjoy while it last
Let’s recover our property!!!
Disgusting actions never end in this presidency. So much ignorance and lies. Incompetent fools. No idea where your bombs are going?! Find some people who know what they are doing. This is such a horrific tragedy.😢💔 Heartbreaking beyond words.🙏
We love you Lawrence❤
This country wait until November.
Love you Lawrence😊✨!! Woke up thinking about Pete Hegseth spending over $93 BILLION dollars on “lobster claws” in one month last September. I’ve heard this type of “accounting” is a common way to launder money. Where do you think the money went?
This had to be said, but I assure you, if they listen to this, it’s like fine wine to their souls. We need to understand this. Appealing on a moral level will not work.
You see, a plan that has everything in it, but not necessarily in the right order, is a line in a comedy show.
Thank you Lawrence as a proud lifelong taxpayer funded unpatriotic non-productive self entitled democrat , since the re-election of Trump I have been continuously crying , screaming , breaking wind , and on numerous occasions soiled myself , but listening to your calm voice and words of wisdom helps me to cope.
And can you imagine the hatred the mothers and fathers of those children will have for America and this will last for generations not only the present generation, but the next one and the next one and the next one and what will be the price that America will have to pay for the leadership that we have now?
my biggest fear
Since 1953.
And justifiably so.
Guud
The President saying he doesn’t know things about what has happened in the war he started says it all!
THE LIES OF DONALD TRUMP would be a movie longer than the original
GONE WITH THE WIND which is what most Americans want now
TRUMP GONE WITH THE WIND!!!!!
Try that with Nobel Peace Prize winning Obama who in ONE year dropped over 26,000 bombs on seven countries killing men, women, children, and babies. O'Donnell said nothing.
PBS is going to to a month series on it or possibly more.
@gene4791, Bush started the Irak War in March of 2003 and declared it a "Mission Accomplished " which it was not. Several troops were still in Irak and Republicans were talking about being against " cut and run". Obama forced by heavy lead Republican Congresspeople had to continue with that "mission", according to facts I remember and backed up by many sources.According to Google's Gemini , "President Barack Obama authorized military strikes in Syria primarily to combat the Islamic State (ISIS) and other terrorist groups, such as the al-Qaeda-linked Khorasan Group, starting in September 2014. " The Ameican public and thus the Congress supported going against Islamic Terrorists. 9/11 was still on the" rear mirror". This information from having lived throught and being able to infer (being able to drawn my own conclusions based on evidance).
Cohn taught Trump to deny any wrongdoing, regardless of the evidence against him. T
Pennsylvania 💋💋
Good luck defending your democracy, we are still with you despite your government's declaration of war on all democracies.
🇪🇺🇺🇦🇬🇧🇺🇦🇪🇺
Intelligence says Iran has survived days of bombing and warns the war won’t end just because Trump declares it. If Hormuz stays threatened, this could trigger an oil crisis bigger than the 1970s.
A note to the guest... Youre not a "middle of the road" voter if you're a Republican. I thought that was obvious.
The administration will soon use Ai to emit glowing halos on their heads on any images of St. Pete Hogsbreath.
Trump's "little excursion" now involves 20 countries militarily - shooting, shielding, or supplying - while high oil prices punishes nations far from the front lines.
I think it is a tactical mistake to focus that much on Trump himself. The real problem are his enablers, the GOP as a whole. The USA, and in consequence the world, need two functional parties that have the best of their country and the world in mind. Right now this is not the case. The GOP gets their power not from having a better plan but from increasing pain and distrust. And it works. While at the same time killing off small businesses and farmers that can then be taken over by big corporations. The focus should not be the stupidity of president and cabinet but the ongoing restructuring of the US society, which will continue even once Trump is gone. It must be the overarching policy and workings of the GOP, Foxnews, And Big Corp that needs to be exposed.
excellent point - thank you @florianbaumgarten5995
The Republican Congress people can put a stop to all this if they wanted to. But, yes even when tRump is gone his minions (MAGA people) will live next door to us. Unfortunately, especially in red states they literally are are next door neighbors. It's hard to love them when they are cheering on violence.
if he “doesnt know”, extradition to Iran will show him?😁
Sentence Trump to life in ALLIGATOR ALCATRAZ the jagoff won't last 24 hours, (Terminate With Extreme Prejudice ) …………
All politicians are liars
Did Pete Hegseth really stop drinking?😮😮
tRump also bombed a girls school in Iran. These girls were of PRIMARY SCHOOL AGE! tRump you are toast. The Iranian are coming for you...
yep, just the age he likes em at
Clueless & Confused + Uninformed & Evil. Thank you again Lawrence.
11:13 so we’re spending BILLIONS on defense but we can’t tell a school from a military complex??? I call BS!!!!
Cargo ships are being hit now in the Persian gulf
trump didn’t see the obvious outcomes, but what about his military advisors? What about not following illegal orders? I am so upset with our military leaders. Our bright, brave children who serve deserve better.
He sacked the top people and installed sycophants
Lawrence's previous video has no sound!
Maureen Comey would be a great person to subpoena.
Americans taking bus is a GOOD outcome of this generally sad situation.
The "genius" TACO exchanged a fanatical old leader for a fanatical younger leader and a country full of hate and rage against the USA. Good job.
First ❤❤❤❤
"lost touch"!
The function of the religious authorities in any regime in history are to provide seamless moral cover for every instance where it's needed. He is God's vessel, God's on our side and it's all part of his Devine plan. Let me rephrase that a little, He is an empty vessel, there is no plan and he's only on his side, not ours.
❤❤❤❤❤❤ A Big fan of this guy!! He gives all the smoke!!💨 😂😂😂
26:00- 'But, gas prices continue to go up because of Donald Trump's war! .... Does he think that people don't see the signs on their gas pumps of what those prices are?' Yeah, he does. But, it doesn't matter. His new Executive Order is about to land, which, at the suggestion of Steve 'Worm-tongue Goebbels' Miller, will declare any such signs as unpatriotic propaganda. All price displays will therefore be banned. Welcome to their AmeriKKKa. Tired of winning, yet?
Of course he says 'I don't know about it' because if he would use the usual non-answer by the guilty 'I don't remember' we would circle back to dementia in the reporting.
DJT is having an excursion? Seems more like an incursion?
Anthropic learned that a working target list for Iran was being developed by Palantir using Anthropic AI. This enraged the owner, who demanded that they stop immediately. It was this target list developed from Palantir and F-nut Karp that targeted the girls school killing 169 girls 7 to 12 . It was pushed as a Priority One First Strike of the launch against Iran. This was not a mistake,
But what's with our Military leaders? Weren't they s art enough to not use OLD OUTDATED information? I find that EXTREMELY TROUBLING! Are they NOT QUALIFIED too?
The exccursion is causing the same effect as a large carbon tax. I thought the Republicans were opposed to carbon pricing?
I literally can’t or don’t believe anything that comes out of this administration!! He literally has been confirmed to be a pathological liar, for God sake! How much more do the American people need to see & hear!
Lock him up 😢
Vote out ALL Republicans! If you live in Pennsylvania, vote out John Fetterman. He’s a DINO (Democrat In Name Only).
Yeah, he's so far gone he doesnt KNOW
*WHY AUDIO ONLY VIDEOS⁉️* 🤷🏼♂️
President "It wasn't me, I didn't do it" Trump.
With Every Day in Office Traitor trump does More Damage to Our Country and Our Citizens!!
Congress Close the Purse and let NO money Out for trump until he complies. Please, We the People are Pleading for his & his Entire Administration to be removed!!
Not for the first time has Donald confused words; excursion versus incursion.
My opinion: Chump's #1 objective is trying to find a reason to declare MARTIAL LAW. It's a strong possibility that Chump may have his loyalist (Mr. Cao Hung, Under Secretary of the Navy) in the US Navy shooting California from the sea and blaming that on Iran, and in the name of the national security of the US, Chump declares MARTIAL LAW to remain in power and end our free and fair elections. Last year, Chump did practice just that, shooting California from the sea. Do you still remember that event?
Trump has mixed up the words EXCURSION and INCURSION, he reads at a grade 7 level.
The international and domestic consequences of Trump's chosen war will be with us for generations. It isn't making America safer, healthier or wealthier. It is doing the exact opposite. Thank you for telling it like it is!
Trump's Narcissist Psychopathy drives him to commit MAXIMUM CARNAGE without ever personally suffering any consequences. Bombing Iran is his method of creative carnage by killing multitudes of Iranians and thereby setting off retaliatory strikes resulting in the deaths of many more Humans in various other countries. Imagine Trump pitching one bowling ball down the lane and the ball ultimately toppling many bowling pins. Gruesome analogy but MAXIMUM CARNAGE is every Psychopath's intention.
Iran shows the US who is making their decision about their country. 80 years of malicious interference is coming due.
So "we" are murderer's now.
It takes 10 times more effort to disprove a lie than it takes to tell one lie. By the time you disprove 4 lies, the liar has told 30 new lies. This is a breakdown of a tactic in the authoritarian handbook and was defined recently as Brandolini's Law after Alberto Brandolini. So, imagine Trump, the serial liar, becoming Trump the authoritarian/political liar. Easy peasy.
Why didn’t congressman Smith speak on trump’s very likely false flag attempt regarding possible California attack from Iran?
The audio on MSNOW isn't working
working fine for me
Pete Hegseth looks much older since he was handed a position that he is so UNQUALIFIED for. Hegseth must be fearful of his job that he is not QUALIFIED for and it is taking a heavy toll on him and Hegseth looks it.😂😂
I’m still genuinely baffled by how anyone can choose to be led by Donald Trump. No matter how many times I try to understand it, the question keeps coming back: how… and why? 🤔
We must get Republicans out of office. They are destroying the US. We are rapidly approaching an existential threat from within. MAGA is a destructive force. Their goal, beneath all the fake rhetoric, is destruction. Follow the trend line since Trump took office. Worse to come unless América undergoes a major reset.
Jen and Lawrence have such awkward energy. It’s fascinating. But I’m a Lawrence fan 1st. Sometimes Jen is a bit orthodox.
Death penalty for Throm through torture for the murder of so many innocent people
So, Trump and Maga Mikey Johnson didn't have money for Affordable Healthcare and food for hungry children. But now up to their necks in billions for another useless war and still counting- in military lives, sick and hungry civilians, the national deficit. 🤔
Why are bombing Yemen? Or any other country, why?
Whatever democrats do now and after the midterms, they need to focus on helping their constituents cope with what the current regime is doing to them. Convictions and impeachments are a waste of time until AFTER this presidency is over! Otherwise, Trump will just pardon and exonerate everyone. So, focus on helping people until after ‘28 and even then that work should be a priority!
Dont BLAME DONALD,,,? Blame the people who elected him,,?
That's a conversation they're not ready for
The United States of America has now the stupidest President in history, with the most incompetent administration, with the worst record compromised of the most lies ever being told to the American people, partaking in a completely illegal war, at a cost of billions of dollars every day, with the loss of numerous young innocent lives, without any ability or accountability to explain a believable logical reason or purpose for the illegal war. All those responsible, including the stupidest President of all time, will one day be held accountable for their illegal actions and lies to the American people, however sadly this will only happen after their success of the complete destruction of the very country they were tasked to lead.
Trump probably fired all the people who would have known about the school in the last 10 years.
Love the comment about the clown Lawrence.
Just call him deceiver-in-chief(for Trump). It fits.
Netanyahu presented to 47 and his WAR Department intelligence that Iran's Supreme Leader Khamenei and staff would be gathered in his home and bunker.
And seeing that the Chairman of the 'Board of Peace' had 2 U.S. aircraft carrier armadas and hundreds of aircraft and thousands of military nearby, that it would be a great time for a weekend incursion to Iran. The IDF will assassinate the Ayatollah, his family and staff.
While 47 and Pete obliterate an elementary school and murder 160 girls.
And POTUS and Pete can name it Operation Epic Folly‼️
Koroying Leven is evil
