This woman is crazy! Saying the funds are restricted for humanitarian purposes are for the naive! Who is she kidding!
Cocain and Crack is a powerful drug 😂
Democrat voters? Certainly no one with an ounce of understanding of the true nature of the IRI.
she is a traitor, draining us dry, sounds like a newbie, none of her family fought in the revolutionary war
Iran has to have funds saved for humanitarian purposes as well. If they now have new funds for humanitarian purposes, then the old funds can be repurposed for other issues. It's not rocket science.
@@Two-Checks maybe it is actually rockets.
So painful to listen to her prattle.
Thank you for exposing me to the new word of "prattle"....I thought it was a typo to "rattle" until looking it up?
You nailed it!
She needs to be at home baking cookies for her grandkids. Not Fing everything up in our lives.
I believe she's been taking lessons in public speaking from Kamilla Harris and SlowJoe. Hence the word salad.
@@hotrox2112yup…
It’s like a kid trying to read a textbook for the first time
Does she talk sooo slowly to eat up the time?
I wouldn't let this lady be a pet sitter let alone work in the government. Lord help us.
ikr! ❤️🇺🇸❤️
The Federal Reserve is not a government agency. It's a conglomeration of evil bankers that are above the regulation of the government and the law.
Just look at these people Obiden, puts in office. They all look weird!
Not only she works for the government but she's in charge of your money.
This woman is less than. We deserve better.
She’s a Nana, she should be knitting bootie’s for her grand children.
Anyone and anything connected to brandon makes me PUKE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Amen.
please not on the carpet I don't want to have to get the extractor
They’re all swamp creatures and RFK Jr is the only person capable of righting our ship. Unfortunately, Trump also invited the swamp into his administration, pentagon, cabinet, and White House staffers. Neither party is capable of enacting the true will of the people. They’ve merged with corporate interests and the regulatory agencies have essentially become an arm of the industries we pay them to regulate. Supposed to be behalf of the American people’s best interests lol.
Just in case you don’t believe Trump brought the swamp, I’ll give you a few examples of the monsters he appointed; There was a Pfizer board member appointed to the head of the FDA, who then returned to his position at Pfizer after Trumps term ended. Azar to the head of Human Health Services. Azar was the president of Lily USA, the largest affiliate of global biopharmaceutical leader Eli Lilly and Company. There were a handful of other big pharma lobbyists and staff sprinkled in the FDA as well, but big pharma has NOTHING on the military industrial complex.
He picked an ex Boeing executive for his Defense Secretary. He appointed an ex senior executive at Boeing, Benjamin Cassidy, to the DHS as secretary for legislative affairs. I mean there were literally dozens of defense contractors appointed to positions in DHS. Multiple Boeing executives, Northrop Grumman consultants, Lockheed Martin, Oracle, CACI, Cubic Defense, former lobbyists of Boeing, Lockheed, Halliburton, Planatir Tech…he filled the DHS and pentagon with the actual military industrial complex itself.
…right before he increased the military spending budget by $85 billion dollars.
That lady really needs to retire like Biden😂
Senator Scott is a great! That lady thinks Iran is going to use the money for humanitarian purposes...you can't make this up!
I hear that lol
It's IRAN! When have they not been hostile?
@@enigma9971and might I add, who think Qatar can be trusted with those billions?
Yeah she's super convincing right?! 😂😢🙄 I got frustrated just watching her. Humanitarian... not "buying" what she's trying to sell here.
Whats her religion? what were her results as Chairman of the FED ??? does she has a double nationality ?? who she works for ??? Why the USA is in so much debt since Paul Walker and all those FED chairman's who went after him ?? What was their religion ???
I want my tax dollars back. They are being mis-spent all over the world, when they should be used here in the USA.
taxation without representation
Scott just wants to give them to israel
Walk across the border and we can get our money back free housing, food, phones and schooling.
Whats her religion? what were her results as Chairman of the FED ??? does she has a double nationality ?? who she works for ??? Why the USA is in so much debt since Paul Walker and all those FED chairman's who went after him ?? What was their religion ???
All the U.S. spending around the world isn't from tax dollars ? #1, The math don't jive.
They're printing money, and why inflation is sky high.
Its why we pay $5 for bread and so on. We pay the interest ( inflation )on this free spending. "Never the principal" and why it keeps climbing.
They dont care, they aslo pocket most of the so called " aid " to other countries.
Not even a fool would write a 30 billion dollar check to a forign leader and say " now make sure you spend it on the right thing "
Scott is a great representative of his state and the American people.
He is newly engaged.
mostly israel. they will thank us once more by hurting us very deeply and funding immigrant NGOs
He would make a great VP
Whats her religion? what were her results as Chairman of the FED ??? does she has a double nationality ?? who she works for ??? Why the USA is in so much debt since Paul Walker and all those FED chairman's who went after him ?? What was their religion ???
She’s just not qualified for this important position. This is a common denominator within Biden’s administration. Sad.
These people were placed in these positions for a reason and they are doing exactly what they were put in place to do. They told us this on TV in interviews before the 2020 election if you were paying attention
FINALLY!!!
Someone addressed the elephant in the room (or in this case, the DEMOCRAT -Donkey)
"The Fragrance of Compassion
I stand on the street, my heart sorrowful
The great disaster is looming overhead at the end times
Where are people heading in the hustle and bustle
The life-saving Dafa [Great Law] has opened Heaven’s gate wide
I pass out this flyer of truth
Helping people at the command of the Creator
Most people are Gods incarnate, becoming humans
Doctrines of atheism and evolution are a deluding potion
Modern notions and conduct bring harm to oneself
This truth can save people, keeping them safe and healthy
He is compassion and fragrance emanating amid chaos

@@user-qm8cm1dn2v What would Master Li say if his own needy people were being extorted by the govt in order to fund their enemies?
How long to you think it would take Trump to fire this fool ???????
One minute after he's sworn in January 20, 2025!
In a skinnit which is ten times faster than a minute 😂
About as long as it took him to fire Comey.
Make sure u vote for trump
@@brettgreen853and yet he was chastised for it . The deep state is deeper than a oceanic trench
Why is Menedez still in Congress?
Because if they kick him out for corruption they would have to kick every single one of the out!!
We have criminals running the prison. God help us.
Bob Menendez is way worse than George Santos, yet he's still there.
If you're looking for justice and fairness you will not find it from democrats and Rino's
Janet Antoinette Yellen really just believes in the "let them eat cake" philosophy
Her Neck is prety short.
She's a terrible lier
Anyone who doesn’t like Trump is a commie. Name calling because you can’t articulate a good point. Sad
Honesty is transitory
Ms. Yellen and ole Joe need the same intervention services.
Exactly. She appears to have one foot in the grave. What the f#ck is she even talking about?
You mean to get the devil out, there would be nothing left.
Yah it’s called Hospice Care!
How is Bob "gold bar" Menendez still in congress? This country is an absolute joke! We deserve absolutely everything coming to us, this is the stuff we tolerate.
Well said! These politicians are protected that’s why they are corrupt! They are broadcasting their corruption without fear!
There needs to be a group or committee that’s has the power to take away corrupt politicians protection so they can be arrested and prosecuted! For example Alejandro Mayorkas...is public enemy #1
Yea no shit. It will never change unless 5 to 10million get in the streets. It will have to be people of all political ideology. The problem is that blue and red voters have fell for the divide and conquer propaganda by the state. They go right along with hating their neighbor because of how they vote. When what i see is red and blue voters have way more in common than not.
same reason biden resides in the white house. i have heard tim scott defend this countrys patriots and principles, he gives us a glimmer of hope despite being surrounded by obamanites. heard dershowitz a few minutes ago; very disappointed in trumps lawyers, again. dershowitz predicted the court will uphold the law narrowly, thus tossing the 14th A claims in the dustbin for now. but yeah, how much tyranny does it take?
Because Liberals DO NOT CARE. They are corrupt AT THEIR VOTER BASE.
He is one of many. We need Sen. Kennedy’s research team to examine each one and publish their findings!🇺🇸
I would like to see these people hooked up to a polygraph as they answer questions?
me too
Yes! Good idea.
They said not voting to confirm this grandma for Treasury Secretary was misogynistic.
That woman could talk for 24 hours straight and never say a world that would be understandable.
She would never say a true word. Just like the FBI man. Deflect, deny, obfuscate.
Funds can only be used for "humanitarian" purposes. 9-12-2023 the President of Iran stated the money belongs to the Islamic Republic "humanitarian" means whatever the government decides it is and will spend it where the government chooses.
Humanitarian purpose.Does that mean it can be used against humanity? Sure seems that way.
How is Bob Menendez still on a committee??? Resign!!
The amount of money given away is astounding!
It’s just sickening!
What is Bob Mendendez chairing this hearing?.....No Shame
Senator Scott is a Legend!!!
He is a handsome legend. um, um, er, .....kinda?
oh boy. a legend. truly. what do you call your real legends?
Senator Scott. 👍😎
What a great way to put it! "You are very, very good and I may have to cut you off." Damn she's ANNOYING. I see the Gold Bar Dude is still hanging around.
Yes, he is still hanging around on our dollar. It's just shameful. We are a Mofia, not a Republic!
Shouldn't she be at home baking cookies or something?
Smoking crack and drinking lemonade.
Sending that big money to Iran.
Ashamed
Unbelievable
O'Biden does whatever I bummer tells him to do.
Especially when you read 18 US code 2381 where it says "Whoever, owing allegiance to the United States, levies war against them or adheres to their enemies, giving them aid and comfort within the United States or elsewhere, is guilty of treason."
Corruption to the core! God is about to move! Get ready!
Bob Menendez is still there???? I swear both parties are extremely lawless 🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬
2 parties?
@@user-uy5jl5yn2oThe globalists and the populous parties?
The humanists and the depopulation parties?
If Scott or any other senator didn't interrupt Yellen, she would use up every minute of the senator's allotted time, reciting her various memorized speeches. Notice how she barely even takes a breath as she goes from one sentence to another, literally linking them all together in what would be a two hour long sermon that would put any long winded, devout "Fire and Brimstone" preacher to shame!
Amen, proud to see our South Carolina strong, honored, loved and blessed by God's grace warrior working.
Her face on the photo for this video is priceless😂
Shes a joke.
How is this woman in charge of anything?
Yellen and Iran is like me when I give money to an addict with the promise they don't spend it on drugs....we both know they're breaking that promise even if they do buy a lil food/humanitarian aid with it. Or maybe they keep their promise, because they'll use the money we just freed up...and not our money directly....to fund the addiction
She just lied under oath; there are no "strick controls"; as per the state department, they acknowledged transactions had been done, but have no idea where that money went. Once money is released, they have no ability to track it.
Why is gold bar menendez still working in the government😮 and why hasn't he been expelled like Jorge Santos was😂😂
I find it amazing how naive she is on how Iran will use the 6 billion from Qatar. OR, she knows and simply does not care and perhaps supports the "river to the sea" Muslim policy. My vote is on the latter.. Sad indeed
She's a hundred millionaire. Bought and bribed for.
Shes not Naive. she knows exactly what she's lying about.
Someone so out of touch with reality should NEVER be in a position to control out nations finances.
So true she worst than my kids with money!
This tells you how incompetent these folks are. She said they have strict regulations on how the money can be spent, but it would be a critical error to assume you can control people in another country, who don't follow the law. it's the same ridiculous rhetoric we hear about everything; just let us control you, and everything will work out
oh they know what their doing.
Yellin shouldn't be in charge of a bake sale. She searches for words to avoid answers, almost as good as Mayorkus.
Aggressive and vigilant?? Now that's funny!
Love Tim Scott!
Puts iran under sanctions, sends them billions of dollars. SMH!
What da!
Yellen go home grandma.
This man us right on.
I have kids and needless to say have raised teenagers, and her answers have more uh's in them than a lying teenager's responses.
I can't believe, I'm afraid to believe that there isn't a person in the USA better able to perform the functions and duties of Treasury Sec than the present incumbent
Billions and billions to our sworn enemies…..insane
I remember back during the crash of 2008/9 I read an account about Yellen experiencing an uncontrollable giggle fit when told there was a national shortage of coin rolls due to so many senior citizens turning in their loose change at the banks in an effort to make ends meet.
What is the gold bar thief doing there?
Do we have anyone who is not sufferieng from dimentia in this Administration?
Under Biden 3 years
17% inflation (per CPI)
S&P 500 has gone up 24%
net gain of 7%
Under Trump 4 years (could shorten to three years and it would be better, but we have to include the covid year to be fair to biden)
10% inflation (per CPI)
S&P went up 47.5%
net gain of 37.5%
Where the hell you getting this numbers in your sleep?
@@Grana2020open your eyes Brandon has screwed up everything I was at the store yesterday a small 6- number packet of sneakers cost 6 dollars it was 2 dollars a few months ago ago and this was at Walmart needless to say I didn’t buy them also come to the border and see the mess I know I live in Arizona a border town. are you happy?
Seriously, @mrabbott212 Only 7 companies combined contributed to the S&P 24% increase, 7% net. It’s acutely volatile and shockingly pathetic economy and people are really hurting. And J Powell- the Fed are manipulating the markets.
@@Grana2020 CPI numbers are from the bureau of labor statistics, and the S&P 500 numbers are from the historic stock market prices
@@Grana2020 Average Americans don't need Numbers. All they have to do is look how how high grocery prices, energy prices and gas prices have gone Up since 2020. All they have to do is look at how much their retirement investments have tanked since 2020. All they have to do is watch the news in order to see how bad things have gotten in our country since 2020.
Why Is Gold Bar BOB Still In Congress!!! What A Joke!!
Why is Menendez not in jail?
Send YELLIN to GITMO.
Would love to see Sen. Scott as VP wth Trump. Sec. Yellen is having an impossible time trying to defend anything with Biden Adm. It just dawned on me she greatly resembles the host of a children's show in the early 60's Captain Kangeroo!
Yes! The Captain. She just needs a mustache and a double breasted peacoat. However I believe Byron Donalds Would make a better VPOTUS.
That's an insult to Captain Kangaroo.
Term limits, please………
What’s going on with the lady sitting directly behind Janet Yellen? Her eyes look like she’s downloading data to yellen! Very odd.
Great observation. I thought the very same thing ever since the one lady was seen mouthing every word as the representative in front of her spoke it.
I NEED RANCH DRESSING!!!,-with the salad she just fed me😢😢😂😂😂
Wasting time is an art to her.
IT'S CALLED SENDING AID AND COMFORT TO THE ENEMIES IT'S THE VERY DEFINITION OF TREASON
They really do think we're a bunch of idiots. Their contempt sickens me.
We know what your doing Yellen! Securing your activities in UKRAINE!
If Yellen was so great before joining this administration, many of the congress people from both parties have stated, why is she so incompetent now, Corruption ?
Old Yellen was not from the USA for long, probably a marxist immigrant - got no skin in the game
This is OBummer's fault.
You ought to be a comedian! Sad…
Exactly. This administration is being run by fools, traitors and corrupt criminals.
It's no wonder they are so desperate to keep DT out of office.
All of it!
Now we know why they chose grandma. Can’t attack the little old lady😅
Exzzzactly why! Seems to be a popular theme with demoncrats Old, People of Color, Women, Lgbstd's. Unless they're a Conservative.
Actions speak louder then word Janet!!
To hell with sending billions to other countries for 'Humanitarian Needs'! Address American's needs First!
The excess use of "UM" and "UH" is indicative of a liar.
every time I hear "humanitarian purposes" UNRWA comes to my mind
Why is our Government spending American tax dollars on anything but America !!!!!
Cough cough Bullshit! cough cough.
If these people are just going to lie what's the point of all this?
why is crooked menedez still on this committee.
don’t let her continue talking about nothing
We the people need a break down of all the money we are giving all these countries. Where is it going ,who is actually getting it and how is it being spent.
GOD Bless Senator Scott.
Boy, she put forth a LOT of ‘uhs and ums’. Telltale signs of lies.
The USA allows states to go bankrupt while giving away money to our enemies??😂😂
Oh my God ! This administration is full of almost dead people 🤢
Love this man❤❤ keep up great work. Thank you.
So why are you still give them money to iran???😡
Tim Scott is a good man, and an honest Republican, trying to save our Country.
Why do we give any funding to Iran?
Her voice and accent are like fingernails on a chalkboard!
We aren't enforcing the sanctions. She's a devious ideologue.
Why are we even giving any money to any country with America in the shape it is in .they should be giving us money
This is the same fool that assured us that inflation would be transitory.
Hmmm... twansitwory
The grim reaper herself in full form. Whatever country she visits, expect chaos the next week there. 😅😅
Why should our money be sitting in a foreign bank
This is the best our country has to offer for Sec of Treasury? She doesn’t have a clue!
Ticks me off how government just hands out billions of dollars. Most to not realize a billion is a thousand million.
Grandpa Munster as Secretary of the Treasury, imagine that.
That's a good one. Ha, ha, ha. But true. That's why it's funny. Grandpa Munster. The actor was a Jew. Just like Yellen. Must be just a coincidence?? I guess. Or is it.
@@michaelrokohl3220 ? I have no idea. I just know she looks like Grandpa Munster.
@@misterwallace3479 Al Lewis was the actor's name, who played grandpa on the Munsters, he was a Jew. Yellen is also a Jew. What a coincidence, because antisemites think jews are monsters and ugly, because their evil. Just a coincidence I guess, or maybe not.
Stop sending any foreign funding to any nation.
How can we be so dumb, that we are providing our enemies, with money 🤨
What ? Senator Menendez isa chairman. He should have been in jail already.
Benny Hill comes to mind. 😂
Humanitarian purposes! Iran? 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
HA! Good one.
