Вставка

- California is open for business, the Dodgers hosted their first full capacity game and fans at Wrigley Field are back to creating “beer snakes,” Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene did something unusual and apologized for her Holocaust comments after a visit to the museum in Washington D.C., Melania was absent from Donald’s 75th birthday, Batman was trending after reports that a sex scene got axed from an upcoming season of “Harley Quinn,” and in honor of the upcoming Olympics in Tokyo we took to the street and asked people to give their thoughts on something that hasn’t even happened yet in a new “Lie Witness News.”

Oh pleeze.... MTG was told to "Apologize", it is out of Character for her seek knowledge or anything regarding truth.
Actually, she hasn't apologized yet.
Follow the money! They have been threatened that the money to thier campaigns would be taken away.
I loved when she said said she’s just a normal person........NOT!
What? MTG= stupid meter…
That didn't even approach an apology!
Republicans don't even know what "apology" means. They just deflect stuff. Notice how she quickly rushes to the "some people don't believe it happened" part, just to draw attention away from her.
When you lose your job but wont leave the building, you have mrs. green. Random silly announcements and museum trips, . You can’t put the things she said back in the bag. 🤦🏼♂️
God Bless You American.
5:43 They sound as happy as a bunch of mourners in a funeral home. If my friends sang like that to me, I'd get a hint they don't want to be there either.
They were offered a thousand dollars to sing it but were paid in Confederate dollars
@@juliancrooks3811 Or tickets to a fake maga rally in Tulsa .
MTG probably stole a pair of shoes from the Holocaust Museum.
That had to be the worst rendition of happy birthday I've ever heard.
Ikr! Not only was it totally out of tune, but the absolute lack of any enthusiasm was appalling. It was as if we were visiting an asylum and the patients were having a little party. That was THE saddest 75th B'day party I have ever seen, and this guy is rich enough to throw a bash, but too cheap??
@@samanthamariefreeman335 saving all your money for law suits gets you this.
@@samanthamariefreeman335 I can assure you that people sing better than that in psych. wards! A lot of the patients are creative, artistic and musical people.
@JACOB H I agree that he's not the devil. He's the devil's spawn though.
That was the most enthusiastic Happy Birthday since Office Space
Paid the people and still not excited
Was embarrassing very very embarrassing
That part on the Olympics was hilarious 😆 thanks for the laughs, I needed that.
Especially, the ponies in water polo. 😊

I saw a former co-worker on one of those street interviews on Kimmel. I sent the link to my boss with the message "Remember when I wanted to fire this guy for being stupid and you thought I was exaggerating? Here's my proof I was right."
“Speaking of human excrement…” Comparing MTG to poop is an insult to poop.
👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
My poop is hatred free. ✌💩☮
More than I can say for MGT
It’s called compost.
Trump's is gold plated.
@@angelaaguirre8155 You can electroplate anything. Even a big Orange turd.
“Speaking of human excrements, congress woman Marjorie Taylor Green” 🤣🤣🤣
That segue was an effing masterpiece 😂
She's a Saint compared to Jihadi Jane Ilan Omer.
@@ThailandBhoy They're both batshit insane, but both are right about certain issues
I almost just said the same thing LOL!!!
Marjorie got brain damage from her crab shampoo.
What the? Why would people say they watched the olympics when they obviously couldn’t have?
If this is true, it just demonstrates that interviewing the man on the street is utterly pointless.
That stack of cups was approximately 3 1/2 Scaramuccis
So is a Scaramucci an Italian unit of measure, like a kilo?*
She "apologized" because the House is considering Censure and expulsion.
Exactly and she will take it back in a few days just like last time
Also: when you piss on the truth and the Jews in the same moment, a dam suddenly appears upstream of your location on the Contribution River.
That, was an apology ?
How y'all liking that Trump Vaccine? Cool huh!
@@markstevens1729 .. 👍👍 you know that is why she apologized..
A republican apologizing without her being immediately kicked out of her party? We haven't seen that in years.
Well since this is the future of GOP, we better get used to it. Even if it means changing the American way of life and Democracy to some sort of a third-world dictatorship. That's what Trump wants and obviously half of the GOP congressmen. (Probably more than half)
@@chrisivanchev No one over fifty can run for office.
@Angry Combat Wombat a lot less then Don supporters who believe in aliens, Covid death squads, invisible planes, the resurrection of JFK, etc.
Prayers for Nancy Harding to have a speedy recovery from her ACLU injury. LOL!
Yeah .. it's such a shame that her boyfriend, Jeff Buttafuoco, ran in there and slit her kneecaps like that!! That's Hockey Polo though, am I right?! ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
I like how they stumble at 'Mr President', pure hostage situation right there.
It was like they were going to call him something else, but at the last second thought better of it...they wanted to appear at least a tiny bit respectful.
(Aside from, supposedly DJTJ holding the " camera ") no blood relative appears anywhere in the video. And I had to wonder: how many " guests " there really were after the Secret Service detail was taken out of the picture.
Looks like a colorized version of a 1936 Mr. Fuehrer birthday party. Hairdos were more progressive, though. Trendy 50’s retro style.
🤣🤣😂😂😭 LMAO!! 💯%
Lol! Hostage situation indeed
Thanks! I really wasn’t sure what they were calling him!
Guillermo we miss you! Come back!
Looks like some people don’t even want to be there.
That birthday party was sad as hell.
I know.....they were mourning drump.....I wish
The beer cup snake was started in the Canadian Football League. We were doing that at the old Winnipeg Stadium in the 1990's.
Cricket tests in Australia were doing it then, same with the AFL and NRL

@@Person_In_HD the entire district is really fed up with her dog and pony show bullshit. She’s done nothing for us, her constituents, other than make us a laughing stock. Personally, I didn’t vote for her but, the people who did, they’re more pissed off than those who didn’t.

That's so sad. They called him "President" in his birthday song?
He's not, though.
Exactly
Once a President, Always a President. All of them.
Happy birthday dear "Mrmr Prmsedesnt"
As much as I despise Trump, Americans have a tradition of calling former presidents and governors by their titles. And they did screw up his Birthday song, they didn't all clearly sing "Mister President" as it was supposed to be, in Trump's massively tiny mind.
you retain the title for life. recreational drugs are not for everyone.
Let’s face it, education and behaviour in the USA are not what they could be.
Well, there I am in the Cubs game shot 😂 We got yelled at a few times by staff for the cups but my thought was that we were making their job easier LOL!
Melania tRUMP wasn’t at Mar-a-LARDO’s 75th bday.

Makes you realize that those statistics about plastic circling the earth, or enough to go to the moon and back, are really spot on. Makes me sad ... Stop selling plastic
How about you stop buying plastic.
I don't, as a matter of fact. I must change billions of minds to affect change ... or ... I can get a few to agree that we need to stop selling plastic. Government is proactive, the free market is reactive. The one sees a problem coming down the pike and heads it off at the pass, while the other tries, sometimes in vain, to fix the massive problem it's already created.
Replacing plastic as temporary packaging is going to take quite a bit of work. Every time one buys prepared foods, it's packaged in plastic. I wish that at least a person could bring their reusable containers to fast-food restaurants (like Chinese food places) to be used instead of the plastic and styrofoam items that are usually used, but that would require some kind of guarantee that the reusable container has been STERILIZED to prevent possibility of food poisoning from that source.
Ah, nothing says happy birthday like the out of tune, unenthusiastic singing of hostages.
You're so right..I've attended wakes with way more energy..
Hostages though? I wonder if there is money involved somehow…hmmm

Im willing to bet that Majorie honestly either doen't know anything about the Holocaust, or she doesn't belive it happened.

Probably both.

It's not just Americans. It's human nature. But I'd say it's even worse in some cultures where saving face is really important.
