We missed a bullet. He could be on the Supreme Court today. Thank God he is NOT!
We can thank the turtle for that. Thanks, Mitch. (Even though I'm not a fan)
His verbal excuse makes his negligence on written documents even worse.
Lip service from a liar
@@lewcrowley3710 Yes. It's so hard to listen to these people.
make the little weasel answer in an open forum ,he has had every opportunity to respond by a letter .THATS WHY WE GET NO WHERE ,DEMOCRATS ARE GIVEN ZERO ACCOUNTABILITY .I HAVE NEVER SEEN ANYTHING LIKE IT.
I respect you, but felt the need to ignore you
I would like to add to your comment.
You said, " make the little weasel...."
I would say" make the sniveling little weasel.....": It better describes Garland.
We actually had a major win keeping this incompetent buffoon off the Supreme Court
@@Ocean_breezes touche
He hasn't done shit
Neither has any of the House Republicans #truthhurts
She is way to easy on him. Then he sits there and lies.
People should "peacefully" protest at Garland's house.....I bet he would shut that down before they could get out of the car
Katie did well. Nice to see a woman assert herself & not be drowned in his blah-blah-blah.
She stood up to him.
In her own way.
I really appreciate and admire her.
Britt ruined her reputation with her theatrical, cringey response to tye State of the Union. Her histrionics are insufferable. I agree with her politics but she can't be taken seriously politically.
Barry Obummer actually wanted to put this clown on the Supreme Court.
He's so moderate!
Wow good one. Went all the way back to 2009 for that knuckle-dragging insult
Garland said a lot of words but doesn’t answer the question; typical of these hearings. Britt hinted at a solution: cut his funding.
FBI director Assumes, what a sorry answer. wow.
Corrupt DOJ 😮
All of us need to be respected and protected when we have any Civil and Criminal justice issues to keep the Courts operating with integrity, discipline, and maturity. I feel like the Senator and I do not have to be the same Race, make the same amount of money, or live in the same close address areas to want to be responded to in serious situations where responses are the norm. These are the way that things work. None of us can work in none of those Fields and decide that we do not have to respond and expect anything besides to be removed. It is not power. I hope the Senator makes it clear that power moves People by following what is law to maintain not having crimes out of control. It is criminal offenses when established laws in effect are not executed in a Court of law. That fact goes without saying. We need as many Representatives as possible stating power moves People toward peace and the ability to do for themselves without being attacked. Criminal offenses and not responding is not power and causes disruptions, wrongful judgements in a Court of law, and should be disciplined strictly with an immediate response to keep the Country out of chaos and destruction. The Representives that do their jobs work very hard for the People to live in peace. I work very hard no matter who is upset to acknowledge all the Representatives and Presidents that helped to move me forward. I am not going backwards. Enforce the Ulysses Grant order so that any Race seeking to enact the former KKK mentality is dismantled. All Races earned peace in their lives except the ones that keep lying on us. If the troublemakers claim that they are tired of our truth. Just imagine how tired I am personally of their deliberately lies. No One involved is more tired of me having to deal with the lies Alameda County has been allowed to get away with for far too long. Thanks for sharing.
He is a nightmare --
Why does she smile constantly when she talks?
I wonder what would happen if people showed up at HIS house .
Well done lady.
Some people spend far too much time and energy trying to be difficult. If you do your job and do it well, you should be able to answer any questions and be more than happy to be as direct with those answers as possible.
Really WEAK man !
she's got to stop smiling
She is nervous. She 😊is probably smiling unconsciously.
Veru annoying!!
@@user-gq7xj4bc6k the position deserves respect, not the person.
Cares about a paycheck
Her constant smiling is at odds with her words.
Why is she smirking so much. Is this funny?
Because she has moths where the grey matter should be. Didn't you watch her rebuttal following the State of the Union address?
I think it’s nerves and trying to keep composure
She's too polite.
Another girl senator weighs in to absolutely no effect. If you're not getting any respect, DON'T GIVE ANY!
He does not respect them at all. You can see that clearly by his answers he has given when ever questioned.
She seemed like she was gonna bust out laughing a few times.
Even the left ACLU agrees that the federal law prevents protesting in front of judges' homes. That law came from the early 1950s when communists protested and threatened judges, like what's going on now.
The federal law these protestors have violated is Title 18, Section 1507 of the U.S. Code, which was enacted in 1950. Under this law, it is illegal to picket or parade in front of a courthouse or a judge’s home "with the intent of interfering with, obstructing, or impeding the administration of justice, or with the intent of influencing any judge."
Pointless. If there are no consequences for not completing them there will be no compliance. Letters and stern letters as follow-on DO NOTHING. You then turn around and fully fund them with all they ask. You MUST impose consequences. They must be real and damaging.
As a Senator with oversight authority over the DoJ, she demanded copies of training materials presented to US Marshalls as they were prepared to protect the Supreme Court Justices. In the end, he promised _only_ to deliver a transcript of testimony. She demanded the training materials because those materials very probably document lies told to the Senate and House by Garland and the head of the Marshals Service. The transcripts he promised to provide simply reiterate the lies told by him and his department.
I'm glad that Senator Britt pushed a little, but she got rolled by the sleazebag AG.
Their word is like thin fake glass. It’s intended to be broken
Wah wah wah Britt sounds like you had already heard the answers
I find it particularly off putting when people insist on saying the respect someone when their actions say otherwise.
It's all about me! I guess she learned nothing from her SOTU debacle.
I just don't get why the Republican Party thinks this Britt woman has what it takes to be a key spokesperson for the party. Frustrating for me. She'd be a great kindergarten teacher. She needs to get genuinely angry JUST ONCE.
@@davidwilliams6966 Agreed. The party needs to do better. The people who vote for them deserve it.
He does more talking than actions
and his voice is grating
What a jerk. She deserved a response because she requested one. It doesn't matter what someone else did.
No one person was arrested! Not one!
Talk about writing your own press releases!
What a clown 🤡🤡🤡
Garland looks like a falcon with that beak.
buzzard
@@lewcrowley3710- - A buzzard with a mouth full of carrion
Disrespect? He actively despises this type of oversight
Why does she talk like that? Is she constantly smiling or can she just not keep her teeth in her mouth? Serious question.
Cause she doesn't know what she's doing and is too soft spoken to deal with the Commie Dems.
She is probably angry about the disrespect he shows to Congress. She is trying to keep her anger in check. Also it keeps the other side guessing on what she is thinking and her plans and goals.
She's wonderful
She's fake.
She doesn't know how to ask the right questions. The question is, you guys can't arrest them on the spot. But y'all can't do an investigation and arrest them later?
Love me a true American
He has no RESPECT for her ! Talk is cheap!
Garland always always throws everyone else under the Bus !!! So Sad !!!
A wholly unimpressive person, does he actually do anything?
I understand she is trying to be polite but unfortunately she comes off too pretentious. I think if she were more stern and angrier she would succeed better. Because she already looks harmless a more angrier facade is necessary at this level, hence Governor Noem of South Dakota. She is very polite, articulate and intelligent but also has a sense of strength and leadership, if I were a woman I'd fear Mrs Noem over Miss Britt on any level. In this game that is what's needed, not Hugs, Cookies and afternoon naps 🫢
HE IS A LIAR!
I can’t believe how easily he lies, and he actually gets angry.
You are my hero!
Why is she smiling as she reads to him? This man repeatedly hides his corruption and partisan thuggery behind the veil of "can't comment on an ongoing investigation." And as long as Congress keeps giving these executive branch agencies annual institutional payraises, their deceit and unresponsiveness will continue.
My question is simple. Why aren't these bureaucrats held responsible for their non responses to a legitimate questions by representatives of the people who are the boss. Our government is out of control especially the democrats.
So the acting job the horrible acting that she did and lied about the sex. Trafficked girl on National television means that she tells the truth now?
IT IS VERY, VERY HARD LISTENING TO Merrick Goering AND HIS ALLEGED DERELICTION AND INCOMPETENCE!
Alabama needs a new. Senator, she's too nice and soft spoken, nobody takes her seriously and looks/acts like a common soccer mom.
*"Mr. General"?!?* Britt takes the current idiotic public references during hearings by Senators and Congresspeople (and Supreme Court Justices) to Attorneys and Solicitor Generals as "General," as if they are military officers, to a level of absolute lunacy. What protocol manual do these people read?
The same old story same old song and dance from this corrupt official .
He is a law unto himself. Lock him up.
You are NOT allowed to protest near Catilin Clark's house!!
Go Britt!
Britt should practice speaking. Her shaky voice makes her appear weak and fearful. Be firm with these corrupt arrogant criminals.
This woman is a joke. Her state of the union response was the most pathetic thing I've seen in a long time...
I've never had a sense of humor. I merely figured out how, to make jokes about my nervous complex. God, loves you.
Because he is above the law,and thinks he can do whatever he wants
He would make a perfect Republican.
You have not!!
She’s still a bad actor!
Senator Britt is smiling as she reads her statement, then suddenly tries to sound tough. She doesn't exude confidence, or toughness. It's no wonder she's still waiting for that letter. If she were truly angry, she wouldnt need the statement, no wonder the Democrats are running circles around these Republicans.
I’ve been doing this for years and I’ve done more for everyone than anyone else. Smug, arrogant, liar.
The whispery "gosh, I'm just so sensitive and sincere" voice and that absolutely daft grin would be hard for anybody to respect.
Spot on.
You can’t believe anything this man says.
woman*
what a hack
Why go through all this just to pay the money...Gotta put on a show...
Blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah BLEGH
He disrespectful all Republicans
As everyone else in this horrid administration, his elitists attitude is atrocious.
Sounds very much like the previous administration.
Why do the republicans let them get away with not giving Mayorkas a trial?
Dance little queen dance~
"I will be sure the transcript of the testimony gets to you in a letter" What an asshole.
Garland was picked “FOR HIS WEAKNESS”. He’s USELESS! 4:24
No. He was picked for his outstanding ability to deflect and lie.
Please show this to all your friends and family so they can see what the Bidens are doing to this country and the brave men women and children
I'm sure Britt has a good heart. But, her constant smiling, especially during serious questions/discussions, it irritating. If it is involuntary, then she needs to get coaching.
Britt has a weird voice for sure .
Handmaids Tale called! Breathy Britt has been accepted!
Hey dude do your job
The failure to uphold the law in protecting the SCOTUS Justices is in itself intimidation!
Garland looks like he has cancer
Any more lying stories about raped women you never spoke with or who were accosted 20 years ago in a different county?
BS
🤔🧐🤥🤥🐍🐍😈
Why is she letting that weasel get off so easily?
Da country is 🤢 FJB and NATO ☦️
You lie
Another Biden Buffon
If you're gonna label someone a buffoon, it might be wise to spell it correctly.
Why is she smiling and laughing 🤦♂️ she is the most unprofessional clown
Because you tend to do that when talking to an animal.....a weasel in this case.
Because she knows he's a clown
Clowns like garland are funny
@@paul42171 you can talk to animals! 🤡
Sometimes when you are being disrespected, To smile and break down the facts is the best way to humiliate another.
So 6 months after she asked you, you had a throw away fellow, present a wildly incredible presentation, primarily to exonerate you personally, for any malfeasance. As you sit there, you continue to try not to answer the question. In the real business world, not your sheltered realm you occupy, you would be derelict of job. No one, anywhere gets answers to pertinent questions in any more time than 90 days, so you have been delinquent by literally 3/4 of a year. So let us know now, in what world do you live in, do you find this appropriate? Oh, that’s right, the world in which you are protected.
So, she is taking up everyone’s time to say she wants an individual letter stating what she can easily download from the transcript.
Garland should be charged with Mayorkas and put in prison throw away the keys...
Britt is one of the weirdest Senators to date. Her inappropriate smiling and facial gestures are very odd.
Is she auditioning for something again? Yeh? not getting nor deserve it.
bunch of bullshit there...
