    Desantis’ head wobble is an expression of contempt and distain. His body language is that of a bully.
    I’m very glad that people are clearing reading his “non-denial denial” regarding Guantanamo and his actions there. Mocking the question and the people asking it isn’t at all the same as saying he didn’t and wouldn’t participate in torture and abuse.

    • @KathyHussey063
      @KathyHussey063 Рік тому

      Yes apparently Ron thought the whole world forgot what he was just asked & so he thought that he could make us ALL believe that the question was ; whether or not a torture victim's memory can be relied on.. But um, YES Ron, I feel VERY certain a person would never forget every face that was in the same room with them while they were being TORTURED !!
      Jeez, who wouldn't remember their faces? That'd be a better question. No one being tortured wouldn't thereafter remember very clearly the face of every sick a$$hole who'd been in the room at the time !! What an idiot DeSantis is.

      It's funny how even compulsive liars have a hard time simply saying "no," they have to embellish it, make it a big deal, and go farther out of their way than necessary to deny it. One of my favorite examples of this is, "The American people have the right to know if their leaders are crooks, and I am not a crook."

Racism goes both ways and yet i never seen news about black people "attacking " white people for being white.

      Yes & his segment on Monday was about eating bugs! No wonder they fired him! Nobody wants to see that! Honestly though, Tucker was too expensive of a liability for the Murdoch's! Due to the evidence released in the Dominion lawsuit, Laughlin Murdoch had to withdraw a lawsuit against an Australian news outlet called Crikey & had to pay their legal fees! They still have the Smartmatic lawsuit to deal with, Abby G's lawsuit against Fox News & others plus Fox's insurance is going to go way up because it's their insurance company that will pay the bulk of the settlement with Dominion & the damages in the Smartmatic lawsuit! Also, even though Tucker was their most watched host, there weren't many advertisers that wanted to place ads during his show.

    the hilarious thing about DeSantis comment is that prisoners and detainees spend hours and hours looking at each other...then someone walks in. If DeSantis was an Officer, chances are he was in a different uniform than the other prison guards and they would have shown him deference as an Officer. DeSantis may have looked at the prisoners like they were a dime a dozen...but to those prisoners, there was only ONE him. He also didn't deny being present, just argued with the person asking the question. Sounds like a guilty conscious to me...
