KGB actually has a phrase describing theses people like MTG, called "useful idiots".
That appellation started with Lenin and Trotsky.
Joe Biden's DOJ + FBI = KGB weopnised against his Political Opponent President Trump..
FACTS MATTER.
Trump WARNED Joe Biden will start WW3 and it has already begun on Biden's Watch
Why does one have to be PRO PUTIN if they rather this money go into fixing domestic issues ?
@@drwalka10 For the last time, most of this money is going into domestic factories.
@@drwalka10 Because it just is. We don't have any domestic issues more important than preventing another major war in Europe. Bridges? Go the long way. Homeless? So what. Unemployed? Get a job. Student loans? Why'd you get a degree in gender studies anyway?
They’re traitors!
GOP are traitors!
The lefties chanting death to America while backing Palestine are the real traitors.
I was under the impression that treason was punishable by death or 5 yrs imprisonment with a $20,000 fine.
Why is someone seen as a traitor if they rather this money go into fixing domestic issues ?
@@drwalka10 they have the power to do both but chose to one.
I doubt Putin wants to recreate the Soviet Union.
get real
He does. Why don’t you think so? Perhaps you think he LITERALLY wants to reestablish the CCCP?
Yup .Nobody who has a clue thinks he does.
@@18thCenturyMulatto yep your buddy Putin sure does want to reestablish the Soviet Union aka CCP
there is not threat from ru ssia unless n ato keeps provoking .
How will I retire? I'm 36 years old and there is always a war.
No aid, no education, no support for the home team.
Will I work until 75? 100 Billion To Foreigners. We have no use for Ukraine 🇺🇦 or Israel 🇮🇱
And somehow they call themselves "patriots " SMH
Ukraine is not part of the USA so I don't understand why anybody's patriotism is being questioned?
Sell your house for Ukraine
As someone from a military family, we stand with Ukraine, akin to our World War II stance against fascism. Providing surplus weaponry to Ukraine boosts the US economy and aligns with our global interests. Supporting a democratic Ukraine against a fascist Russia is cost-effective and honors sacrifices made by previous generations. Russia's influence on American conservatives has fueled misinformation, leading to detrimental consequences like the January 6 insurrection. The real patriots, like my family, strive to defend our constitution against rising fascism both at home and abroad.
@@diegoflores9237 I'm pretty sure they are talking about the GOP.. they are party of one man vs. USA best interests. Like the commenters said below.. look at history, we cannot stand back and let Putin do what he likes. Wake up Sheeple indeed
@@ttrestle google the 14th ss battalion and where they changed their name to the 1st something, I can’t recall. Stepon led them. Your comment is laughably naive
It does not help when the media talks more about the odds like a horse race versus the stakes in this election correcting the propaganda of MAGA.
Jefferies is speaking as if he’s trying to recall a script from memory.
I have (basically) voted Republican since 1976. House Minority Leader Jeffries enunciates a rational policy / perspective I would have expected from a Gerald Ford. My world may have turned upside-down, but I still have most of my marbles
Money to Ukraine , ZERO TO US border !!!
not zero. There are thousands of border agents.
Actually the US border is not as important as Ukraine freedom comes with a price sometimes it is with money sometimes it is with human life!
Lahaina Hawaii is still smoldering.
I hope this is our future leader. Make America Truly Great Again. MATGA.
FHJ.
more like.."Moscow Agents Truly Governing America" pro Putin Republican Traitors..
No. Just dont want my tax dollars going to a war we dont need to fund. Worry about our own infrastructure, health care, etc. Let the EU pay for it. Its literally on there doorstep.
Europe needs to defend its backyard not always America's young soldiers. ...
Sorry but US will have to get directly involved regardless. If Europe falls, we fall. We saw it during w w 2 and we will see it again if we don't put a stop to it now.
Unless your name is Ivan or Boris then you should understand this, even as Trumper. If not....go back to school, pronto
This is precisely what he said.
To be such a serious issue, the European sure aren't taking it seriously. Why should we?
The remilitarized Germany and you don’t think they’re taking this seriously??
@transphotography If you think Germany is rearming, I have a bridge to sell you. Germany has spent half of its annual defense budget on military consultants because they literally have no idea what to do. Not to mention, new military recruits are met by protesters at processing centers.
@transphotography LOL! my response was taken down. That's dark!
Legacy NATO allies are recapitalizing their militaries, and the alliance has been joined by several previously neutral nations. I see Europe taking this issue VERY seriously and I (for one) feel confident in standing with our friends.
@douglassauvageau7262 Americans really need to read European media. Germany is absolutely not rearming, the population won't permit it. The same thing can be said with most Western European countries (Germany being the stand out) .The only countries taking this seriously are Eastern european countries! It's clear people are grossly overestimating countries' ability to change their behavior.
A VERY well-spoken man, a man that SHOULD be Speaker of the House.
You want that to happen, vote blue.
He lies well for sure ...
his is lawyer, very good on public speaking but lack political science knowledge (social, economics, foreign)
@@Socrates21stCenturyif you're pootin
@@gulfmarine8857 Try English next time ...
Occasionally, there are leaders and nations, both at home and abroad, who do not abide by the norms and laws established by society and act in a contemptuous and destructive manner,
There are leaders and nations, both within and outside the country, who act according to standards and values that apply only to themselves.
These are usually referred to by the general public as "riffraff" who should be excluded from decent society.
It's absolute BS the Republicans took so long to pass support for Ukraine. I think all these Republicans should just move to Russia if they love it so much.
Why does one have to be PRO PUTIN if they rather this money go into fixing domestic issues ?
@@drwalka10 There are bigger picture than domestic issues here and if you don't learn from history it will repeat it's self.
you should left when trump became president
@@drwalka10 actually a large portion of the funds goes domesticly for new arms as the older are shipped overseas.
@@Anthony74te27 There is no bigger picture than the United States,
When he so eloquently announced the nomination of Nancy Pelosi for the Speakership five years ago, I knew this guy was going places. He will be the majority leader soon.
he lack political science knowledge. ask him questions economy philosophy? what is view on foreign policy? because this guy pro isreal.
Unlike the GOP, I’m pro America and pro nato.
Gawd bless Murica 🤓 🖕
im pro united states but not NATO(im anti NATO). im pro Western not european
Pay your way NATO ..America is not your free lunch
That is an oxymoron ... since the GOP ONLY wants to put America first, and ONLY wants NATO to pay their fair share ...
Boeing, Lockheed Martin and Raytheon are glad to hear it.
The fact of that is astounding. The gop is a mess.
We don’t have the money to send. They are spending money we don’t have to fight a war we are not in and bankrupting us to do it.
While the Dems are becoming the party of antisemitism.
Worse
Than why is Trump winning?
@@stevepackard8542where has he won anything? You mean the $540 million he owes. Found guilty of sexual molestation, because time ran out on rape charges. 🫵🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Brilliant Jefferies. Can't wait for him to be President.
I concur !
only the finest propaganda for me
read a book
History repeats itself. He is speaking the Truth, something people have lost sight.
There aren't any pro-Putin conservatives. He's lying.
Well said, Mr. Jeffries. Well said.
He was spewing lies. There is no "pro-Putin" faction of the GOP.
These is similar to George Bush's "you are for us or you are against." History never stops repeating.
excellent and spot on
I don't think Marjorie is the leader, I think she's just the biggest mouth
Unfortunately we will probably end up in this conflict no matter what we do. But it's in our best interest to supply Ukraine and defeat Russia in Ukraine. This is going to be a world wide conflict and we need all the help we can get.
Why do you think that and what if we can't? One of my biggest problems with this war is that it's likely to be lost similar to the ones over the past 50 years if not worse. We've made Russia stronger than ever particularly militarily. I'm for a strong America but knowing when and how to act in addition to using diplomatic channels and not inflaming situations where we cannot win does not seem to be in our interest.
At what cost? Do I hope Ukraine “wins” if there is such a thing, of course, but the amount of money we are spending to fight another country’s war is absolutely staggering. We don’t even have the money. Also, why is it that nearly no other country, including the ones near the war, are sending any meaningful amount of money?
@ABC
I live in Latvia.
And I have been and I was disappointed with some of my neighbors not doing/giving more. But that’s just not true anymore.
Also remember America’s military and financial aid will always be more because they simply have more.
But yeah, I understand why you say that.
@ABC
But also, sorry, you really don’t get it if you think that America is spending too much on another country’s war.
Ukraine fights for us all.
@@Rickuttto We don’t “have more”. We are literally charging up the credit cards in order to fund the war of another country while neglecting to provide basic security in our own country.
A vote for Trump is a vote for Putin.
At this point such statements have become comical.
🤡
Exactly.
A vote for Trump is a vote for Putin.
Putin prefers Biden over Trump, so the opposite is true.
Btw, Mueller debunked the Trump-Russia narrative.
Hahahaha ... thanks for the laugh ... see who funds the Biden Administration ... China and Russia ...
The people who are against helping Ukraine should read the history of the years prior to WW1 and WW2, just like now there was a lot of people with simplistic opinions about a war happening in the other side of the world, and it wasn’t until the Japanese attacked Pearl Harbor that those very same people realized that monsters in far away places if allowed to grow will later be big enough to attack your own home.
Russia won’t stop in Ukraine, why? Because they believe that in order to be geopolitically secure, they need their borders to be in what is now Poland, Latvia, Finland, Ukraine, etc etc and they know full well that if they don’t do that now, in 10 years they won’t be able to do it because they don’t have the demographics and Russia will cease to exist as a nation.
Either the US and Europe stops them at Ukraine, or get ready for American boots on the ground in Europe.
@manofwar
Exactly.
I live in Latvia. I have lived next to Putin , Russia, and the Soviet Union for 50 years.
God help this planet if Putin isn’t stopped now once and for all in Ukraine.
And I pray that Trump doesn’t win.
And waiting over 6 months for more aid from America was very painful. Trump and Speaker Johnson have blood on their hands.
Slava Ukraini💛🌻💙
So where have you been since 2014 when Russia began taking Ukraine apart? The time for Ukraine to care was also in 2014. It didn't have a mass mobilization and Ukraine and the world de facto accepted the loss of Crimea and part of the donbas. Back then, a couple of hundred thousand totally green recruits would've had the best chance of accomplishing something. Ukraine did next to nothing after October 2014
Ukraine has never been able to be trusted through history.
They breach all agreements and have broken any law ever made.
They cant even trust their own people.
Committing so many war crimes the ones handing them weaponry need to be held to account.
Well said manofwar. Putin is playing republicans like a fiddle.
@@magicmerlin1 No he isn't.
or we can go into debt deeper
US servicemen and women in Ukraine. I wonder if he's heard of nuclear weapons. Better stock up on factor 5 million sunscreen 🤣
and that's the truth
We support Ukraine!
MTG works for russia
Absolutely she does. I bet a bank account she has somewhere would prove it.
@@eastmal4224 AGREED!!!
Still taking about Ukraine
Her demeanor is RIDICULOUS ‼️👿
secure the dam border .
Good to see real leadership on both sides of the isle.
Alone that fact they have a criminal candidate is enough, only disgust remaining
Much respect for this guy.
He is honest and decent.
He will be president one day, hopefully.
I question Nora O'Donnell's party affiliation - seems MAGA to me. I don't like the way she looks at Hakeem Jeffries. Why the constant side eye, negative comebacks and comments, trying to put words in his mouth? She never smiled at him, seems out to get him. Too bad for her because Hakeem Jeffries is the smartest, most well-spoken man in Congress who ate her up and spit out the bones in this interview. I hope he runs for President in 2028 because I'd vote for him!
You watched that interview and think she's pro-MAGA? she never even gave him pushback on his outlandish and unfounded "pro Putin" talking points. hardcore progressives who tend to be left leaning aren't in favor in of the endless money given to Ukraine either... are they "pro Putin"?
congress people taken our money and wasted it, spend it on useless stuff, but can not pass budget bill in last 15 years, 34 trillion in debt.
Shouldn't those people you mentioned which are undermining the country be prosecuted for working for a foreign government like Russia ?
He can't prove it because it isn't happening
Nah he gets millions of dollars from JPAC Jewish political action committee
American boots on the ground. Would these be the same ones that ran away from the Taliban. Ukraine First.
the US has no business there. wasting billions.
I 💙 Hakeem Jeffries hes going to away be a great house leader , VOTE BLUE FOR DEMOCRACY 💙💙💙💙💙
Trying to silence Trump by the blue is NOT democracy. It's Venezuela socialist politics!

he not leader, hakeem is a public servant elected to sever his district.
@@link8689 he will be the house leader after November
if NATO continues to try to get closer to Russia's borders. in particular, to take Ukraine into NATO. then it will all end in a war with NATO. and if Russia loses in this war, it will be with a nuclear strike. NATO forgot that before this it only attacked countries that did not possess nuclear weapons, such as Libya and Iraq. this time everything will be different.
As long as Putin don't act aggressive to other countries there's not going to be any problems. Nato has never act threatening to Russia after all these years like Russia has to some of their neighbors.
@@hissatsu4937 SPOT ON!!

And you are spouting nonsense
Like benedict Arnold ???
Trace it all back to pro Putin Trump.

He's right and I agree with him. He sounds like a robot and he's got that Obama finger wag that is a turn off. He's good though.
What a smart person
1. It's not pro russia. it's anti world police & bank.
2. Our country priority #1
Let Europe step up like 🍊man said they should.

You think russians could afford bot traffic on a level anything like the west even if they tried? Western university studies dont agree.
Just, a bunch of clowns

What he just said don’t make sense. And if we’re talking about deeds lol … I think my country has forgot about how they’ve treated their civilians over the pass 7-8 years and even before that… you’d RATHER PAY MIGRANTS AND REPLACE US. After everything the USA citizens have done for this country. All the USA DO IS USE PEOPLE AND COUNTRIES TO GET WHAT THEY WANT.
Why is not this guy running for presidency?

You call your fellow American Congress men Putin supporters.
Absolutely YES.
Further proof the Dems are the party of hate and division.
Yeah, because they are.
@@jkfdkjjd No they aren't. Plus, you have zero evidence to back it up.
There's more proof of antisemites in the pro-Palestine crowd than pro-Putin supporters in the GOP.
Because they blatantly are

He is poised to be the next Speaker of the House. Not everyone wants to be president.

@@rgarrison1819 trump lost so stop crying
Why does one have to be PRO PUTIN if they rather this money go into fixing domestic issues ?
Name a bill they've written that spends money on fixing issues in the US.
That's just another argument to hold up Ukraine aid. Fact is if there is no aid now it will be many times more expensive in the future. So in terms of fiscal responsibility, we must support Ukraine now.
Basic brainwashing & manufacturing consent for the simple-minded.
SHAME ON MAGA
So far I see only Russia ( Putting) helps black countries get their freedom. Ukraine has no young men left therefore I agree with the senate republican who said U.S should negotiate with Putin.
He has represented one of the poorest districts in the country ,and after how many years he still represents one of the poorest districts in the country .
He's still delusional thinking Ukraine will Win.😂🤣😂🤣😂😂
Russian bot here.
You. It is you living in a delusion
NO YOUR MATE PUTIN WILL NOT WIN ...I GUARANTEE IT.
Politics is exhausting! Neither side has shown they care about the American people
Unless it's voting time 🤓 🖕

Actually, Putin prefers Biden.
Also, your boy Mueller disagrees with you.
Putin only said he supported Biden to sway the American people to voting for putins pawn trump
Hahahaha ... thanks for the laugh ... see who funds the Biden Administration ... China and Russia ...
Stop funding ukraine and israel when we still have problems in america. Why can we give millions to fund war but not millions to pay for schools and roads?
Are you even listening or are you just trolling? If Ukraine don't receive help their chances of getting their land back is slim to none. Then the risk of more wars ensues, maybe even direct confrontation between US and Russia. I'm guessing you're just another bad troll, or you didn't learn absolutely anything in school.
@@hissatsu4937 like i said, who cares about ukraine when we gain nothing. Russia has always been a problem. Why is it suddenly priority when we are not being threatened. China is a much bigger threat.
@@hissatsu4937Omg, what a fееblе-mindеd one
Keep this comment don't delete just reveal this neo---con
I've read so many books and followed this for the past 4 years. Russians, Evangelicals and Republicans have been working together for the past decade at least. Read "Compromised" by Peter Strzok and Jesus and John Wayne by Kristen Kobes Du Mez. But you can read any number of recent books by Republicans and high officials who are speaking out to get info, such as Liz Cheney, Adam Kinzinger, Cassidy Hutchinson, etc. And Losing Our Religion, Divided by Faith, Prequel. Scary but informative and necessary to understand why we are in fighting for our democracy now.
Evangelicals and conservatives haven't been working with Russia at all. Drop the lies.
Btw, your side is against democracy. You want one-party rule.
Fake Books
Not wanting to send all my tax money to a foreign country when our own citizens are struggling makes me pro Putin? Nice try. Old lame tactics
You fool
United States of Aipac

Have you read the recent amendments to Ukrainian conscription?...cancer patients? mentally ill?

I am a 56-year-old Reagan Republican planning on voting for Joe Biden. Donald Trump and his Raspublican movement would have Ronald Reagan spinning in his grave
Robot, discount obama at your service LOL
👏👏👏🫰🫰 educators in Kansas City they Don't know much
What about US! I'm a senior watching illegal immigrants buy groceries I can't afford! Media is crooked as our president
Well, as far as immigration goes, things weren't much better under Trump. What did he campaign on in 2016? That he was going to build a wall make Mexico pay for it? Well, he had his chance in 2017 when Republicans controlled both houses and the presidency, yet he did nothing. Talk about somebody who talks out of both sides of their mouth. Trump is just as crooked as Biden!
LOL those illegal immigrants have jobs thats why they can afford those groceries
Rus e-rat spotted!
Isn’t U.S. illegal occupying Syria?
This man is purely lying 🤥😂
Hakeem is contradicting himself. If Ukraine is winning then why he says the US needs to sen servicemen if Ukraine falls. The frontline in Ukraine is broken, France has already sent men to fight in Ukraine. Putin doesn't want to recreate the USSR, he just doesn't want NATO on Russia borders. As the US would be able to install a military base just 500 Km from Moscow.
Every syllable is represented by a hand movement.. wish he would stop doing that!
Who cares as long as he's speaking the Truth.
🥹 🥺 wow
❤❤❤❤ Blacks for Trump ❤❤❤❤
Dude I’m honestly soo tired of dems BS. I won’t vote for Trump, but they sure as hell haven’t earned my vote either
That doesn't make sense ... you know Dems are full of it, so not voting for Trump "is" a vote for the Dems ... wake up ...
Harkeen should be the Speaker of the House.
It cost America big time to not have NATO helping to carry the load. It makes that presidency one of the most expensive of all time

No dude. People are sick of America sending billions to foreign countries while we have major problems at home.
You are clearly "Pro Russian" if you want American politicians to put Americans first ... at least that is what I saw on the news ... or maybe it was the Comedy Channel ... 🙂
