This nominee should be up on charges of lying under oath.
Not during this administration.
FJB
Then you have to remember what Trump said. You can't sit in front of congress without them making you a liar. Right, do you have to consider that. Or no more consideration for how bad the people in Congress are.
@@hokekeller14this isn’t rhetoric, this dude literally lied. lol
@@glockdude5472Trump never lies. Hyperbole maybe but not a liar
@@hokekeller14oh now you believe trump huh ? 🤡
A Republican would go to prison (and rightfully so) for lying under oath.
You know I keep hearing this crap but I’ll never see it.
Let’s be real dems own everything including the repubs.
These hearings are just to make us think something will be done.
He will skate free just like the others.
This Hawley guy is just another part of it.
“Make ‘em think we care but we don’t “
Both parties are pupets of same ppl
More money to Ukraine, right?
That really worked for Bill Barr didn’t it !? Lol
278 days until Biden’s move out of the White House.
AMEN!!!
That many? DAMN 🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬
That's to long, America will not survive that long!
I've been hoping for 33 days.
278 days? He’ll be 115 years old by then!
He clearly lying his ass off. Pathetic
Just vote No and slap him with a Contempt charge .
these are the type of sociopaths going after trump right now.
CROOKED WEASEL ALERT!!!!!!!!
As an American, if I were in court and lied I would be in prison. What excuse do these people have not to be incarcerated for lying under oath?
They're elites. They're the political class. They can't be prosecuted for their crimes.
I hate to break it to you buddy but all of them up there, both sides couldn't give two 💩💩 about you and me. One side goes on and on and on about protecting America and the other side goes on and on and on about protecting the American people and neither side is going to do anything to truly help us. They're all up there scratching each others backs and rolling around in our money.
@@samcoon6699 I Totally agree with you, when I joined the Army in 1977 I was given an oath to protect America from ALL foreign and domestic enemies. Well here we are today several years later and now know who our domestic enemies are. None of these bozos will get on the front line and protect America, they will lie through their teeth and tell the American people they are the ones protecting us.
money. powerful friends. they've worked in the DOJ for most of their lives. things you and i dont have.
@@samcoon6699Same here 🇬🇧. They are all the same and as bad as each other.
Nominee is lying
These people always have convenient lapses of memory
Thank you Senator Hawley for your questioning of these nominees. It is so obvious their political views and of course why they were nominated. God Bless America and you Senator Hawley
That's my senator Josh Hawley he's doing such a good job I am so proud of him
He just might make a good President some day!
@@yvonne392 I'd like to see him replacing Garland!!!
He is a little chicken shit liar and a camera loving jerk. But you go ahead and be proud of the pos.
@@FredB916 we get it you never finished HS bless your heart...
@@paulmitchell2561 wow Paul great comeback, I remember you from HS, still a butt hurt little boy? I've had a pretty good life and I'm about to retire, thanks.
I it just me, or have all of bidin's judicial noms been pathetic choices?
Yes. Just like EVERYTHING about him and his administration.
FJB
YES
Incredibly incompetent bunch of nominees. I seriously even doubt brandon even knows about these nominations. I think that the liberal left chooses them in an attempt to destroy America. It has become increasingly obvious that there is a faction trying to destroy America and that is why they want puppet brandon to stay. They can do anything under him and he is barely aware what year it is.
sounds as if he is definitly guilty.
These idiot judicial nominees forget that Senator Hawley, and most of his colleagues are also well versed attorneys and legal scholars….
Love Josh Hawley
He knows exactly why he was removed from a case. Attorneys don't get removed from cases everyday.
It’s baffling why a nominee would try to hide something from a federal committee
Because they know this is all one big show and all the questioning and evidence they have means nothing. The dems are going to do whatever they want. Business as usual.
Did you just really say that?
Because there's never repercussions 😮
Hawley gets a lot of flak on FB but I think is a damn good Senator and a fine lawyer and am very happy he plays with the home team.
This one shows his petty nature
@@iquitnow But was he right or wrong
Haha, lol. I could watch this over and over again! You go Hawley!
A SOROS activist Plant !
Yes he is.
Funny how all of these fools that sit in those chairs all of a sudden can’t remember anything.
When Senator Hawley says he is confused and needs help sorting this out, you should know that you are going to have a very long day.
Lie after lie
For not knowing anything about what happened he sure knows a lot of details.
They are going to continue lying if nothing ever happens to them.
They expose these people and they still get approved? Talk about a hamster wheel!
Argue with Josh Hawley and he'll hand you your hat.
Why don't they charge him with fraud.
Josh Rocks!! ❤🎉
First he knew NOTHING about it...then gradually as the facts came our he had superb recollection on the finer points!!! 😂😂😂😂
When Hawley says he doesn't understand something he most certainly does!!!
Hawley knows the question to every question he asks....
Thought ignorance was no defence in law.
Some attorneys think they can get away with anything 😥
"I see nothing, I know nothing" Sgt Schultz, "Hogan's Hero's"
How can this guy get to this level BUT yet never remember anything? He then feel he is more knowledgeable about everything in question.
Mr. Hawley is to be highly commended for his attempts to drain the "swamp".
The O’Biden admin has sure brought up a LOT of pond sludge for all the positions. This guy seems like one large, well, … you fill in the blank!
Where are these people coming from??? It's scary 😮
It's the Commie playbook.
The bowels of hell
I studied interviewing and interrogation. The 3 best I've seen at hearings are Senators Kennedy, Hawley and Cruz. To bad no one is ever held responsible or prosecuted after their excellent questioning.
Josh Hawley is a superstar! He set the Congressional record for the forty-yard dash on January 6, 2021!
Lol, funny he was at the end of the line.
The complaint, which I don't remember at all, was about false allegations.
Ideology determines prosecution
Ask him if he's had any communication with Adam Schiff. He's a master at lying.
Funny how a fuzzy recollection became a detailed memory….. 🤔
Another appointee that, I'm sure, was reassured by the administration that crookedness in the judicial system is perfectly normal and acceptable due to the fact that its acceptable in the Congress and the WHITE HOUSE. I'm glad that Mr. Hawley actually researched this guy; he is one of the very few Congress members, which are mostly, if not all, Republicans, that take their jobs seriously. We do not need any more unqualified people in our Circuit corps of judges. Did these people really think that they would skate into these appointments without scrutiny of behavior during their careers? This guy needs to be disbarred just for unethical and improper behavior.
Again, I don't recall, how many times have I heard this😡😡😡‼️‼️‼️
Why are this guy’s pants on fire?
These nominees are like a bunch of used car salesmen, they will say anything to make a sale whether truth or lies.
Hawley stays in Beast Mode! Thank You Sir, We the People Are Watching 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
He has no memory of any case but can defend himself against the charge!
❤ Josh Hawley
If I’m ever in court im going to lie my ass off if it suits me. Just following in the footsteps of my overlords.
Amazing how much he remembers when he is vaguely familiar with the case.
Sen. Hawley is like the Harvey Spector of Senate - Love these senate hearings. Im From South Africa
You can tell Hawley was a hell of an attorney!
You can tell that power has already gone to this guys head, guys like him are why TERM LIMITS NEED TO BE PUT IN PLACE, dont let him even get in to begin with. OH LORD, his recollection isnt to great.
BUSTED!!😂❤❤❤
Lies, lies & more lies.
They should not be a political decision. It should be a logical decision.
Love me some Senator HAWLEY! 🎉🎉🎉🎉
Kevin Gafford Ritz, a sneaky Nominee ! It's always somebody else's fault !
I dont recall this case . . . .until I'm confronted about it, then I miraculously recall it in detail.
Amazing he can describe the incident,but he cannot remember it???
remember the gong show? where they had a long crook handle to pull the obvious losers off stage? we need that here....
Something like that is HUGE for an attorney. The "I don't recall" testimony is laughable.
Please explain to me why they even have these hearings when all it takes is a simple majority to nominate the person. Perhaps they should make it that 60% of the legislators have to agree on who gets nominated.
Senator Josh Hawley is a National Treasure.
That this thing is a nominee is shocking and absolutely frightening.
Proud to be from the Show Me State!
These are all the nerds that were bullied their whole lives.
Slime !!
Would love to see Josh Hawley as AG !
Strange 🤔 he doesn't remember 😞
And the truth shall come out
Lying under oath is a crime..
Selective memory .....
HAWLEY IS AWSOME........
Amazing you found it
All these nominees have selective amnesia when questioned about anything that is negative about their past work, judgements & affiliations to dubious organizations.
Seems to me lawyers and judges should have iron clad memories. Yet they "can't recall" "don't recollect" "don't know."
The corruption is beyond belief
For somebody that's never had a complaint he certainly has a lot of excuses.
Its fairly simple, call in his supervisor at the time of the incident and ask them if he was notified of the complaint.
Love Hawley and Kennedy, they don't miss anything.
If he can’t remember what he does how is he suppose to maintain/uphold the law
Move over Baseball, heres the new national pastime, lying to the Senate.
So what happened to the person who thought he was agreeing to a deal for a weed crime?
He suddenly seemed to know quite a lot about this case!
Liars gonna lie.
Lying under oath....lawyer that changed a plea deal....for an innocent until proven guilty person ( a higher and wrong plea).....what a demon....sure there is more
I wish we did not have to waste our time on these NOGO's!
That smirking red head 🤦♀️🤦♀️🤦♀️
Judge Sullivan would not let Mike Flynn withdraw his plea. It was a BFD.
Wow. That is bad.
Let the games begin . . .
This nominee is a flat out liar.
This pos nominee makes me numb.
Strange indeed
He had no idea about any complaint, but he tricked the other attorney and got booted off of a case.
I don’t understand the questioning. They say there are allegations, which is not proof.
