Can we get a look at Mr. Wyden’s donor list?
Probably several different cadavers.
he looks sick😂
Nice pivot
@@michaelryce1200 hail hydra
I would love to see all of these people's donor lists.
Wyden is a straight up Vampire
Finish your CLOROX to be safe...
Vampires aren't real. RWNJs sure are.
Holy crap I was about to comment the EXACT SAME THING
@@genesmith4019 go play in traffic on the high way.
Excellent comment !! 😂
Wyden: "We'll get to that in a minute! I'm busy lying about something else right now..."
try again . weak
@@AZWYDAHO LOL! The unhinged lefties are out in full force today...
@AZWYDAHO actually it's true
@ Did you hear that on CNN or MSNBC?
lol😅😅😅😅
Wyden asks Kennedy a question, then interrupts the entire time. Shows Wyden has no intention of being fair to Kennedy. Wyden obviously also has been in way too long.
Way too long.
This is how all hearings go. It's not about getting to the truth, it's about launching attacks or showing slavish support.
You clearly never watch these. Rinos interrupt more than anyone else. They also have limited time.
agreed - I'm from Oregon and Ron Wyden has been in TOO long. He keeps getting voted for - I don't understand it.
Yes, a very odd queen fella
They should wear all the logos of the companies that have bribed them like NASCAR
I like that.
@crashthecat AMEN great 💡 idea
If you don’t want to hear what he has to say don’t ask him a question!!!!!
Each member of the panel has a time limit. If you have 5 questions and Kennedy obfuscates and dodges the question, the panel member knows they won't get a plain answer to a plain question, so they cut their losses, cut Kennedy off, and move onto the next one.
@HEAT16 it's not a plain question when it's centered around accusatory remarks and slander.
@@HEAT16 - What you say is true. However that has nothing to do with the exchange we saw in this video. Wyden was badgering RFK Jr. simply to harass and slander him.
@@HEAT16 Yes, but why so little time ? Why such hurry ? Don't they want to hear the Entire Truth ?
As an Oregonian, I am not ridin' for Wyden anymore
Of course because you are ridin' for the liars.
@@flexor212000If you think anything Wyden did there was in good faith, I don't know what to tell you...
Can you read? If so, please consider reading bills supported by RFK Jr. and organizations supported by him. He’s a grifter. Please do some research -you will see which if these men is acting in good faith. As an Oregonian I couldn’t be more proud of Wyden.
I don't think of him as an Oregonian, more as a sio
don't cry cuz "your boy" got cooked
Why are they coming so hard for RFK Jr? Because they are all shitting there pants!
Ron Wyden = one of the many, many, many reasons that I left Oregon.
SKOL brother ❤
The west has been overtaken...I moved away too.
Me too!
I refuse to leave!!! Unlike Wyden, I live here and will continue to fight against his radical party, the more people like us leave the more people like him win!!!
We need to stay and "fight,fight, fight "!!!
Why Because he is calling out Kennedy lying??
How long untill forbes turns off comments because its clear we the people like RFK
Forbes is nicer to RFK Jr than almost any other major platform.
My comments have already wrongfully been removed when they were courteous and factual.
They wont turn off comments because they like him too lol
At least Forbes Breaking News is fairly open to consecutive media and politicians. I find it is one the best places to find clips in congress that aren't cut to pieces.
Actually, Forbes is pro left and is not a fan of Trump
The lack of respect for Mr Kennedy is sickening 🤢
What has he ever done to deserve respect, other than being born into a powerful family?
@@LiberalRetvrn Plenty!
A modicum of respect for the nephew of JFK and RFK is warranted. To so dismiss Mr. Kennedy is a complete affront to the Democrat party, to the people of America. Disgusting Disgraceful
@@baronharkonnen5400 AGREED!
Kennedy is a liar, Why do you respect a liar?
How deeply dug are these food and drug companies in American politics 😢
They are defending their actual employers, their job is literally on the line here
@@mg-by7uu Than they should start 2 do some Actual Useful Work.
@@bustjanzupan1074 their work is very useful for the companies giving them billions in "lobbying" dollars each year
Wyden is complete embarrassment to the USA.
Why? Please explain or document his failings ( ha ha, you can't!).
Why? Because he is calling Kennedy out as the liar he is
Yes, we can see it from the Eu too.
When You don't give time for someone to answer your question. You don't want the truth out so immediately makes me not believe anything the guy is saying Kennedy is lying about
Exactly right.
Just like Elizabeth Warren!
@@tomaslopez2940 💯 , 💯
Wyden is another reason why we need term limits. He's been in office way to long. He is a fine one to accuse RFK about lying.
Because he is. All maga's lie. F TRUMP and his cabinet picks they are all unqualified.😮
Do you include Chuck Grassley (43 yrs), Mitch McConnell (37 yrs), Susan Collins (28 yrs)?
He does well at stock trading, 76% return for a year is pretty good.
I agree on the term limits, but RFK needs to be called out of his crap! Putting him in charge of vaccines is the dumbest idea! If he has his way kids will be iron lungs!
Term limits for all politicians. They stay in too long then they start getting crooked!
Wyden is a TOOL
Lack of a tool
That’s putting it lightly
A sio ni st
For the co lo ni zers
If Wyden is a Tool, what is RFK, is he qualified for this position? What data does he use to support what he said. These picks are laughable especially Hegseth, Rfk, and Patel
If you object to RFK Jr helping bring Health to America your investments should immediately be brought into question.
You mean cents right?
The guy who pushed bunk theories that vaccines cause autism? The guy who says "wifi radiation" is bad for your brain? He's a whackjob and anyone who believes his nonsense is too. Wyden killed it.
Why would anyone ever listen to a single word Ron Wyden anymore?...he needs to go away now....
Ron Wyden you suck! Won’t even let him answer your questions, constantly interrupting and yelling over RFK jr, so disrespectful!

Exactly.
Thats really rich coming from Wyden ,I wouldn't believe a word that comes out of his mouth
RFK should just laugh at the accusations. Career politicians slinging lies isn't worth even responding to.
I'm not an RFK fan, but he's not against childhood vaccinations. Now can we get on with working on a new system of medical care that is preventive/proactive versus reactive? I go in for a _preventative_ physical which is advertised by BCBS as "100% covered!" only to get a $700 bill for routine bloodwork .I guess my doctor should just guestimate any internal issues? (edit: I'm insured)
Nice pivot. So get better medical insurance, and learn to focus on the actual issue.
While he isn't per se, that doesn't mean he's comfortable with the current recommended schedule for infants and young children. By the age of 6, roughly (on average) TWENTY FIVE shots are recommended. This is out of control. He most certainly does not think this is normal or necessary. We are destroying children's immune systems or their ability to even function properly. The repercussions of this will be seen in the following years. Hey, Gates said it himself recently. He no longer thinks Autism is even a thing any more. If your child starts showing signs of learning disabilities or other odd behavior, "it's perfectly normal", per his recent interview. He's already dropping the seeds to try to avoid real science that is actively being suppressed by the puppet masters of this world.
@ I have BCBS. Why else would I say that my physical was claimed to be 100% covered as preventative? Read before commenting please.
His misinformation caused death in Samoa
Fake news.
Caroline Kennedy is not very smart.
Wyden’s no longer a citizen of Oregon, he needs to be replaced
Oregon is a weird state, so I'd expect it to have a senator like Wyden
Portland is weird, and maybe Eugene too. The rest of the state is pretty normal. People outside of Portland, Salem, and Eugene want to break for a separate state.
Oregon resident here that is not a fan of Ron Wydan! Crooked
Wyden is a ghoul.
Wish we had a person like RFK in canada.
And Australia
These senators are embarrassment to our country. Such a bunch of arrogant, egotists that have no clue what the American people need or want. Vote these people out as soon as possible.
They're not representing the views of the people. They're representatives of lobbyists and the military industrial complex
@@danlasner834 they have already forgotten thst Americans have spoken. Delay tactics
Wyden needs to get out of
I watched the whole 5 hours. Very hostile democrats wanting to give speech's , point fingers , interrupt RFK during every answer. I don't imagine that any of these people being hostile invited RFK to their office for conversations on the talking points they claim to be so passionate about. How many spent their 5 min. raising their voice , making accusations , and not giving RFK time to even respond to their rhetoric? This conduct is unbecoming of a congressman and I hope their constituents take notice so we can vote these losers out ASAP.
It’s these AH’s that made me a Trump supporter! I, like Kennedy, used to be a Democrat! Ron Wyden, Elizabeth Warren and the other lame ducks in the Senate need to go! How Dems continue to support these idiots is beyond me!
Oregon was the first state to enact vote by mail (for all elections) in 1987. Wyden is likely installed, not elected.
Anybody who says "let me take my time back" or "im reclaiming my time" is a lying corrupt weasel. Let RFK finish his sentence for once.
💯
Shove your quacksines and big farma! Let the manufactures be held accountable!
I don’t agree with RFKJ on a lot of things. HOWEVER, I think his intentions are pure. I think he actually cares about the health of this nation. But the way these buffoons treat him makes me think he’s the right man for the job.
When the Democrats oppose appointees, you know they’re qualified.
This guy is not qualified. The only thing he's ever done is complain about vaccines. He hasn't run a major government anything, was never elected by the people to beginning offices where he learned how things work, he's unqualified and he's making money on suing pharmeceutical companies. He's biased and has an agenda that he profits from.

Great comment. Facts right here!
These people are not asking questions but just making statements
What a mouthpiece for the LEFT. Wyden.
Man this is just sad. Mr Wyden you should be ashamed of yourself.
Did anyone ever really vote for Wyden? Enquiring minds want to know
And you’re in favor of the Vaccine denier RFK JR? 😂😂😂
@@Flame-ci7fw Not every vaccine is the same... you can be against certain vaccines that have harmed people... and not others. Are you following?
Probably not. Wyden benefitted from vote by mail (for all elections) when Oregon enacted it in 1987. Wyden is likely installed, not elected.
This is a prime example of how they get the little sound bites that they want!! They cut you off and don't allow you to finish your sentence and then they say, "RFK Jr said xyz!!" Bucking iceholes!!!
He’s a conspiracy theorist anti vaccine. He’s a joke
Those farrrrrgin ice uh holes
Damnit that's old@@introvertincognito4518
We need to start having separate meetings. One to actually get business done and one for the participants to whine and complain and throw mud at one another
I reclaim my time I haven't had enough time to grandstand or insult the nominee
Anyone can tell immediately that Wyden guy HATES RFK Jr. A "not fit" letter from Dear Carolyn, then yelling at him during his first question, a real doozy, ending in "did you lie about this or did you lie about that" gotcha question. RFK Jr defended himself well, and that Wyden guy is a tool.
Wyden is an embarrassment to the state of Oregon.
Did Wyden just crawl out of the grave?
"VICIOUSLY CLASH" who writes this crap ????
The clickbait definitely worked on me smh
"BREAKING NEWS: RFK Jr. And Ron Wyden Contentiously Bristle Over His Past Vaccine Statements" (there, fixed it lol)
The big tech media
Shills of course.
A I
Wyden: The New Yorker who managed to get elected Senator of Oregon. He has no ground to stand on anything.
As an oregonian Wyden is a disgrace, he needs to go.
Did anybody ever really vote for Wyden? I doubt it.
Wyden benefitted from vote by mail (for all elections) when Oregon enacted it in 1987. Wyden is likely installed, not elected.
Seriously though. He needs to go.
Who in their right mind thinks Kennedy is right for this job!! He has no expertise as Dr......
Wyden in fact does not look very healthy to me. Maybe he should as a first step go out and see the sun again. That will not cure stupidity but help to look more like a human.
🤣 Truth!
Proud to be represented by Senator Wyden
And kenedy is right. They know it. He was never the one harming the people go after the ones who are. Common since.
Wydon makes me embarrassed to be an Oregonian. Retire, already Ron!
Michael Bennet did not ask any relevant questions and was rude, arrogant, and interrupted RFK Jr. He is an embarrassment to Colorado. Take a breath, ask a question and let him answer.
God Bless RFK JR ♥🙏
Term Limits
The dems are really angry at RFK Jr
I really do wish this was done another way, I'd like to hear the full answers. I'd like to know more about this book he's talking about, and what Mr. Kennedy has to say on it. But by not letting him explain it, I have nothing to off of other than getting the book myself, or just the fact that they really don't want him to explain it because it's a good explanation. This is the big problem with this system, and Dems in general right now. They are so interested in Gotcha moments, that they don't think about how it looks when you won't let someone talk. No need to silence the man if what he says is going to make him look foolish or bad. The people are smart enough to see if RFK Jr is trying to weasel out, so just let the man speak.
You're right. And that's exactly why they won't let the man speak, because they're trying to slander the man. Heaven forbid that the he should be able to speak to defend himself.
Oh go you know where you can go Ron RFK ❤❤❤❤❤❤
Does Wyden not realize that he was just eviscerated?
I've met Wyden. I know sticks which are smarter than he. Literally.
Go RFK!
If he doesn't get appointed I've lost hope for our country. This IS the most important part of the new administration in my opinion.
Him and Pocahontas, McConnell and many others need to go. Why can congress get kickbacks from special interest groups, and not ever have to answer for it.
Unfortunately he is 1 of my senators i have just sent a letter voicing my discuss with his questioning and hostile nature of his questioning i would really like sensible questions to learn more abiut this nominee
He used to be one of my senators… then i got an upgrade (by moving out of Oregon). I once wrote a letter to Wyden. The letter you are likely to get back is one thanking you for your support. Most sticks are smarter than Wyden and his staff. Best of luck.
Wyden is not in the same class as RFK. He got ROLLED.
What a sad end to the Kennedy family legacy.
RFK is the most honorable man in DC
He doesn't even know what Honor is, shame on you for attaching Honor to that once proud name
And #47 is the greatest convicted criminal felon ever elected to presidency.
Ron Wyden looks like a melting wax museum scupture of himself out in the hot Las Vegas sun.
That man looks like a vampire
His brain worms have taken over
Normal Democrat! They all look alike!
Wyden is definitely a vampire looking guy. Maybe he is.
As an Oregonian I’d like to apologize for Oregon constantly reelecting Wyden.
He is a douche, plain and simple.
Wyden is USELESS.
It's OUTRAGEOUS to enter Caroline Kennedy's letter into the record!!! Why not everyone else's then that supports RFK?
The one thing these hearings are good for, is showing where interests lie. Wydens interests is obviously not the people. If Kennedy is confirmed it will be a miracle
Why would you say that? He did pretty well. Watch the hearing.
@@akbananachucker2441 I did, and I agree he did well, but it looks like 90% of the senate is just so corrupt, (both sides) we will need a miracle. Thats all I'm saying
@@jonbanner5823 did they say how many more hearings?
@@akbananachucker2441 I think its just the 2 hearings and now waiting for the votes, I could be wrong. From what I hear it looks like (R) Sen Cassidys vote that will decide, from how the 2nd hearing went it looks bad for RFK J, fingers crossed!
@jonbanner5823 damn, don't say that. I've been hoping for this since I heard he would do it. Fingers crossed too🤐
Oregon career politician Ron Wyden who received $1,207,000.00 from Big Pharma yelled at RFK Jr the career health lawyer who fought Big Pharma for decades... 😀😂🤣
Oh another one.the parents have the rights to decide if they want to vaccinate their kids or not, it is not the government’s decision.
Does anyone know what that person yelled out???
So what! Everyone was confused. Nothing was clear. It was trial and error.
What matters is what he can do to help the country now. It's not about proving the past. It's about supporting going forward.
Be gentle and kind
I hope highlights from this tape are used to remind Oregon voters of their Senator's priorities when he attempts reelection.
Not every vaccine is the same... not every vaccine is good. Is that so hard to comprehend?
I'm an Oregonian and Wyden is an embarrassment.
ron wyden from oregon is a total disgrace
Love how RFK answers all his questions and this guy just spews misinformed headlines on repeat.
Im for anyone who is against the mandated jab, especially for children.
That is why Kansas now has a Tuberculosis out break. Keep in the Midwest in those red states. We don't want it.
All vaccines???
@@bjkaranathat’s not at all what he said and they lie about him.
@ I'm just asking for clarity; I don't have political motives here.
Robert is being honest
I find the Democrats are always on the attacking mode.
Thanks for standing for us, Mr. Kennedy.
Wyden is such a weasel. Posturing and performing for the cameras, and making clearly FALSE statements "for the record" about what Bobby has said and done. The senator has NO shame.
No shame or self respect!
Why are these politicians ask questions when they already have answers
I side with RFK Jr OVER FAUCI AND ANY DEMONCRATS OR RHINOS' OPINIONS! about vaccines!
The time BS needs to stop.
Give Congress People 5 mins and the person they are questioning 5-10 mins.
It is just soapbox BS.
This is a joke bringing in this letter . I would like to see who donates to this Senators campaign
BIG Pharma.
Checking into appointees is required. I applaud this as it exposes the liars and irresponsible people who are TOTALLY UNQUALIFIED to hold these highly important positions
Highly disingenuous on the part of Wyden. He's combing through the internet/media for this stuff but then withholding critical context that he almost certainly came across in his search.
Go jfk ....peace to one and all 🇬🇧 #starmarout
didnt he play in polterguis?lmao.
The Senator refers to the covid "vaccine" as a "life-saving vaccine". Lol
Wyden is the clown who wants to tax unrealized gains.
Won't he be surprised when President Trump eliminates the income tax!
How can an attorney be in charge of people’s health in a first world country like the USA?
