How can we be giving any money to any other country when we can't pay our own bills?
It's not the usa money. It's irans
Not the money we send to Palestine, Egypt, Pakistan (to name a few).@@jamesgreen1116
EXACTLY!
@@jamesgreen1116 Your taxpayers are working to pay Iran? And these are Iran's funds?
@@Anne2uYes...and...yes
I want to thank Senator Kennedy for waking up and actually going to work at the Capitol with a spine and a set of nuts that many others lack.
I'd like to thank Senator Kennedy for getting to the point, I haven't seen Democrats this bent out of shape since Chris Hansen said, "Why don't you take a seat "
🤣😂🤣🤣I LIKE IT!!!
Thanks to trump's "tough guy" stance Iran pulled out of the nuclear treaty.
@@robyoung-pl1gq as if they had ever abided by the treaty in the first place .
They were, not now. Winning!!@@bobbrinkerhoff3592
It's nice to see people discussing problems calmly and rationally.
And how nice is it that nothing changes? Biden continues to give money to Iran and Hamas and the ''media'' never says a word about it. Also, very nice. And Biden will get re-elected in 2024 and opposition votes won't change that. Also, nice I suspect. And Biden will continue to print money and de-value the dollar and the media will cheer him on. Also nice, I guess.....
Rather not have problems.
Do they ever get resolved?
A discussion without solutions...like a hamster wheel
From here in the UK, I wish we had politicians like him. He really is top notch.
Thank you Senator Kennedy for speaking up and speaking for us the American people, please keep it up. Thank you Sir!
Mr. Kennedy reminds me of Columbo. Soft-spoken, then strikes like a rattler!! GOOD JOB!!
Talk is cheap!!!! What is being done about all this corruption these committees find?
The current administration have lost their minds, that's possible.., or they are on drugs. No intelligent people would make such destructive policies...JESUS SAVES
Kennedy isn't Speaking to Any American just Traitors
He doesn't speak for me on this point. How, on one hand, is Hamas this brutal terrorist organization that ALLEGEDLY levels active hospitals, schools and places of worship in an effort to foster anti Israel sentiment around the world and on the other, not above a hostile takeover of Gaza and its government with the use of arms?
They conducted a full on coup and assumed power over a weak and leaderless population and now "the good guys" are massacring them by the tens of thousands via relentless air/drone/artillery strikes.
This lady has been more articulate than any other witness before congress.
Or the Senate
Yes, true.
I love her honesty. Obviously she' not a politician of a nominee to be a Soros backed Judge.
What's her name?
It's almost like she's not intentionally avoiding the questions. How refreshing and novel!
I like her, she answered every guestión without any flip flopping.
Yes but now she will be cancelled by the Democrats.
A great big thumbs up to Sen. John Kennedy for always standing strong and firm and for fighting the good fight and for always truthfully and honestly telling it as it truly is and as it truly is not indeed!,👌.
Oh lord I love John Kennedy. He is smart witty , fights for the people, not just for La but the people of the US. Thank you mr Kennedy.
Empty words!
Fights for the people of Israel NOT America. Wake up.
@@gmanjordan4154Nah. He's a smart guy.
@@adamburling9551course he is, he went to Oxford didn’t he?
@@gmanjordan4154the 2 women in the back look hot lil bruh
Thank you, Senator Kennedy, you sir are a gem. Never stop fighting!!!
Fighting? This is called wasting valuable resources...
Iran appreciates his help.
WHAT?!!? Seriously? You're joking, right?
There's more to this story.
Ever heard Colin Powell s speech while holding up the little vial of anthrax.
Warmongering is what Kennedy is doing
🤮
I LOVE Senator Kennedy!!!!!❤❤❤ He has a way about him that gets people to provide information that is needed. Thank you Senator Kennedy.
Senator always asks the right questions.
We need to freeze foreign tax dollars until after the Impeachment Trial.
LMFAO, your impeachment trial failed last week. Pay attention.
Deranged Donald was already impeached twice.. but if you wanna impeach him again.. go for it 😂😂
This administration totally exposed funding Iran Quartar Hezbollah HAMAS not enforcing what is in place and what they claim they are enforcing
@@according2petey25 Acquitted both times too 😂 Now go play with your dork brandon figurines mom will have supper ready soon.
What impeachment trial? 😂😂😂😂
Senator Kennedy is absolutely brilliant. The way he just effortlessly outwits all these supposed experts is so incredible. Truly a wise member of our U.S. government.
He outwits em everytime
Tell us, genius, how did Sen. Kennedy outwit Ms. Pletka, who is a longtime critic of the Biden administration?
He is a genius and cares about the Americans and America 😊
I agree with you 100%. However in all fairness we must remember his opponents are democrats none of which are the sharpest tacks in the box.
It doesn't take much research to outwit them. He definitely is the best to do it.
She was good and answered the questions. Mr. Kennedy is one sharp cookie. Thank you Mr. Kennedy.
He plays the good old boy but is as sharp as a tack - straight forward , well mannered, and very bright.
@@lindahash3528 yes never dull...one of a kind.. knows what he's doing.....
Thank you Mr. Kennedy for being such an inspiration.A true American 🇺🇸💜✝️
First and only question, why is Robert Menéndez (D) NJ still on the Banking Committee let alone a still acting Senator?
Santos Or Whomever He Is, Republicans Needed His VOTES!!! Time For Him To Go, Also!!!!
He has the goods on the president
because he is a democrat .don't you know the radical left can get away with everything in swamp Washington
@@sandrarufus8198 And Republicans are NOT running interference for him and making excuses like the Democrats do with their corrupt cronies, Precious.
Has D in front of his name.
Remember this when it's time to vote folks.
Vote GOP and set yourself, family, friends, community, State, and America free 🇺🇸
@@douglaskriever6904Perhaps all prospective voters should be required to pass a test on US history, civics, and government before being issued a Voter's License or something ?
@@douglaskriever6904 I agree.
The people who vote don't care about this. They're looking for free college, free healthcare, free groceries, free rent, free cell phones, and free everything else they can think of.
If voting really worked it would be illegal
John Kennedy is a true American. He’d be a great president.
Love John Kennedy! He gets down to brass tacks!!
the blonde lady is straightforward with her responses.... well done.
Obviously not a “Quid-Pro-Quo Beijing Jos Xi(bi)den” Regime appointee . . . . . . . .
The Sixty Million may be in a bank. But let me give you an example of how this works. If in my own checking account I have $50 for food for a month, but someone buys my food for that month. That frees up my $50 in the bank to spend as I want to.
@@thepolkster46cry some more.
She's one witness with an honest answer. I'm just worry that she will be cancelled by democrats.
You can literally hear their knees knocking together when they realize they can't bamboozle Sr. Kennedy. He is a national treasure. Truth Rising 🇺🇲🦅🇺🇲
They were trying to bamboozle Kennedy? Certainly not Pletka! There was a little framing coming from the first guy but at the end of the day, all in agreement...
AMERICANS THINK THIS IS CHARITY 😂
America is withholding money $100 BILLION of Irans own money as hostage, money they hold on international banks, just the same way they chose to withhold $300 BILLION of Russias money.
I wonder why they left out that information? Is it to make the American public think this is charity money or something?
This lady is fantastic and Sen Kennedy is one of a kind. 'Love is the Answer' to all the corruption! Laughed my head off.
She is an honest person but the sad part is she will be cancelled by Democrats.
Thank you Senator Kennedy
Why cannot congress override Biden ??? I do not get it ???
Good question. I too thought there was check and balances to maintain equal power among the branches of government.
The only "override" they have is to deny the Budget Appropriations Bill. (Supply I think it is also called) which would lead to a default of payments.
Political theater
They can't "10% for the big guy"
@@kevinmansour31now your getting it………it’s all theater…….filled with sideshow distractions…the world is the stage.
The answer is "MONEY LAUNDRING". The Big Guy, wants his (10-35) percent commission.
BEST INTERVIEW EVER!!! Finally…. Good People, answering Good Questions.
I'm just worry that she will be cancelled by the Democrats
Senator Kennedy and senator Graham brought everything out we really didn't know much of. Thank you both.
Senator Kennedy is such an amazing man! This man is thorough, hilarious and he don’t take none of their BS! If he ran for president, I’d vote for him in 2028! This woman is a warrior. I’ll bet she catches all kinds of crap for telling the truth.!
Him and Lindsey should get a room….🤮
Nobody in DC wants to hear the truth.
Smart man BUT when he was talking to the immigration people he said "you love your country as much as I do". THEY DON'T CARE ABOUT WHAT IS HAPPENING TO THE CHILDREN. The children are pawns for these GOV SICKOS.
@@marcusaetius9309what a well thought out interesting reply. Shining example of the Democrat Party. You make Fetterman look brilliant. Well done 👍
his state ranks last in almost every category. education being one of them...explains why you loves hims
It’s nice to finally hear a witness (the woman in the video) give definitive testimony. How refreshing.
And did thank him for the question
I don't recall who the gentleman was but he appeared to be answering questions directly most of the time not filibustering like FBI & DHS Christopher Wray and Alejandro Mayorkas
The sad part is she will be cancelled by Democrats.
This Senator is so intelligent.
Love the way, he speaks, and asks the questions
I sincerely hope and even pray that the gentleman on the panel continues to follow the ladies lead! She is the FIRST democratic witness who was completely HONEST in her responses in the hearing! BRAVO!
"Quoting Socrates in a prison riot" John Kennedy is a classic!
Yes, that was classic. Even she was impressed, as who wouldn't be!
Like it or not, we and the world was better off with Trump. Biden told Iran, "Dont." While Trump had told them, "Run."
The Democrats and a few RINO's are in cahoots with our enemies
Trump kowtowed before Putin in front of the entire world when they met in Helsinki. Even Republicans were irate at the time because Trump was such a coward.
@robbielee2148 i agree , you are absolutely nuts
Boy did you hit the nail on the head.
Well put.
I am Canadian and your Senator Kennedy there seems like a smart man with his heart in the right place.
It's not an Administration, its A REGIME !
Funded by DAVOS globalists. Even the media that aided the Trump unprecedent legal harrassments that were based on non laws, fabricated evidence and abuse og, the House's rules by Pelosi and the laws and Constitution and a corrupt DOJ pulling the strings all to cover their graft in office and get rid of a president for the people not DAVOS wanna be kings..
....a mafia.
Excellent questioning as usual Senator Kennedy! Most informative! Thankful this lady gave accurate answers!!!!
He grilled her like a cheese sandwich 👍😂
@optimusprinceps3526 she gave very precise and informative answers not like biden's democratic stooges who constantly evade questions requiring yes or no answers.
She was forthcoming, on Kennedy's side - no grilling necessary lol@@optimusprinceps3526
She is an honest person that's rare to all witnesses the sad part is she will be cancelled by the Democrats.
Right on again..OHNJohn...you the .best .for real truth..ps .I love LA ..too
A angel I believe was speaking through Kennedy! Holy. moly!
Very interesting news,thank goodness we have people like Senator Kennedy asking good questions 👍
Maybe this is the reason why they kept the house close for three weeks. Wonder what went under the rug.
Ya, what ever to take your attention off trump LMFAO
@@Theonetruegod-hw2eiTarget called and said your order of special undies and Bud Light is available for pickup. I suggest you add tampons and pads because you're a bloody mess.
@@Theonetruegod-hw2ei C'MON MAN President Trump is always in focus and has been ever since he announced he was running for President in 2015.
Total exposure of the Biden Administration and how they are funding Iran Quatar and the terrorists organizations
Quoting Socrates in the middle of a prison riot. Gotta love Senator Kennedy. Thanks for posting.
Quoting Roman Emperor, Flavius Vespasianus- - "Liberalism in a man is akin to rabies in a dog"
Wow somebody that actually answered his questions.
Your Welcome America from Louisiana. Best Vote I ever cast. I worked on his office equipment as State treasurer. His office was in a very old building with NO elevator, but was attacked in political ads accusing him of Lavish offices. But seeing for my self that the MEDIA was lying about ever thing was an epiphany that just woke me up.
I didn't vote for him because I am in a Blue state but I donated for his reelection. My senators are dumb, dumb .
Thank you senator Kennedy. It appears you are one of the few senators with any brains and common sense in this country at least and most importantly the Biden and it's administration!😊
AMEN
He is just a performer. He has made lots lots if $ since he has been in politics. Look it up!
@@barbaralewis8920 can u cite some examples?
@@C.U.N.Tahiti no she cannot site any examples of anything!! She just loves supporting the socialist takeover of America!!
This senator, unlike her traitorous president, has not earned one single dollar by selling out America to her enemies!!
It isn't so much a concern about how much he's made. It's about how he's made it.
Senator Kennedy much respect and admiration from Australia 👍
Senator Kennedy, you’re brilliant and smart. Thank you for your great job. Love so much your line of questions. Love your Witt. God bless you always.. We’re glad you’re the peoples Senator.
It is so nice that these 2 people ACTUALLY gave Definate Answers -- goodness -- no one else seems to know how to put their shoes on when they come before Congress or the Senate for questions!! Thank you.
Agree.most don't or won't say.
Thank you Mr. Kennedy for your professionalism, and bringing out the truth about what’s going on. I hope the public is paying attention about how all this money gets around.
First time I've ever agreed with this man. Good to know he isn't totally nuts.
A question that must be answered. And immediately!
He is such a hoot . Wouldn’t mind meeting him one day .
Take the money back or freeze the account! How can we continue to fund terrorists when our own people are needing help!?
Think of how much interest that 6 billion is earning every day. Who gets that ?
Too late the money was frozen last month.
@@dr.jonesusa7122big guy 10% Brandon
It is Iran money. You aren't giving them anything. At best you are returning what is theirs
It is the us history of stealing other countries money which is leading the world to dedollarise at a rapid rate
Democrats have NEVER held Iran accountable for the $Millions they owe the American hostages under an international court ruling, neither Obammy nor his 3rd term mouthpiece sockpuppet Sleepy Joe.
Wow! Two people who actually answered the questions!
I’d love to see Sen. Kennedy as president someday, but for now we need him right where he is, holding people accountable with the truth.
Kennedy would make a Great President.
Exactly what I just thought
shame that he would probably go the same way as the previous Kennedy - too honest and honourable
It sounds good but hey....... I dunno
He is exposing the UN for what it has been for decades.
LMAO! My pet snake can make a great president these days.
John Kennedy
Your a Legend❤
Great question your Honor 🎖
Get that traitor out of office and his administration too, NOW !!
AMERICANS THINK THIS IS CHARITY 😂
America is withholding money $100 BILLION of Irans own money as hostage, money they hold on international banks, just the same way they chose to withhold $300 BILLION of Russias money.
I wonder why they left out that information? Is it to make the American public think this is charity money or something?
Trump isn't in office, try to keep up.
THE TRAITOR WAS VOTED OUT OF OFFICE! 2020✅✅✅✅
@Shoop... no he's not that's why the middle east is a powder KEG and Biden lit the FUSE! How about you pay ATTENTION!?
@Shoop... oh we're keeping up with Brandon's failure after failure maybe you shoulf
Get us out of the UN Please
Senetaor Kennedy, you are a force of nature. Much love!
God bless you Senitor Kennedy🇺🇸😎
This man is a legend. Check out his record, top degrees from top universities in the US and Oxford UK, highly successful career as a lawyer. Married to the same one woman since 1990, a religious man. A force to be reckoned with.
Agreed
He has a sense of humor as well and is interesting tonlidten to.
And he grades a "C" as voting conservative. He votes with Mitch to fund corrupt Ukraine.
FACTS
TRUMP /KENNEDY 2024
I love Senator Kennedy ❤️
He's awesome, and he remains perfectly calm the whole time he is making his well-placed points! He reminds me of my dad, a calm man of few words, but when he did speak, we knew we needed to listen up!
God bless you Senator Kennedy thank you for your sevice !
Great questions!
Great jo senator Kennedy, but the question is why cant we impeach a president and remove him from office for dereliction of duty.
😂
Then we end up with Kamala Harris lol f that
he has to have derelicted
@@acruru the open unsecured border is a prime example of his failure to follow the oath of office by itself and a dereliction of duty. Cocaine in the Whitehouse, transformers, attacking the fossil fuel industry with no real plan for the transition which has driven up costs for just about everything. His departure from Afghanistan which resulted in the loss of 13 service members. The guy is a mess and by design ruining the country
Impeach both for not doing the job.traitor Biden and harris.
Senator Kennedy is a gem!
Rock On Senator Kennedy......you are one of the Best!!!!
More incompetence. Thank you Sen. Kennedy for shining the light on them.
Thank you Senator Kennedy for putting it so eloquently you are the best and also a treasure to all Americans
At least she makes some sense!
Can we get integrity back in this country?
Morals, responsibility, and integrity are long gone since Bush & Obama!
not under the current system nor the current regime
YES! WHEN PRESIDENT TRUMP RETURNS 2024!👍💪💪💪🇺🇸🇺🇸
@@gmanjordan4154 Obumma was garbage!

An eyeopener. People in their own country are struggling to even put food on the table. This is obviously a free for all....Rosa Larsen

Love the Kennedy and Louisiana x
Mr. Kennedy is a national treasure.
AFTER LISTING TO ALL OF THE REAL EVIDENCE- THANK YOU MR. KENNEDY FOR REVIELING THE INFORMATION (FACTS MATTER)- AMERICANS HAVE A QUESTION THAT COVERS ALOT OF DECISIONS BEING MADE. (ARE WE REALLY LETTING THESE IDIOTS 🤩 MAKE DECISIONS AND LIE ABOUT THE OUTCOMES?? PLEASE HOLD THESE FOLKS' FEET TO THE FIRE.)
Someone has finally had answers for Kennedy, about time. Kennedy is good 🇺🇸🇺🇸
I like this Man He’s straight forward we know exactly what he unapologetically thinks about the state of Congressional Dispurt
The only Kennedy i would ever vote for...
Well said.
Also, why did the ObamaBiden administration have an Iranian inside the oval office as Obamas closest advisor????? Valerie Jarrett....
Also, why did Obama pick Biden as his VP and Brennan as his 1st choice as CIA Director and then #2 man advising????
Well, I guess now we are all seeing why.
Obuma is Bent.😮😊
Sorry, this makes no sense. Jarret was born in Iran, but her parents were both American. What’s your point?
@@liatherose6275 clearly your are not even qualified to have a conversation on this matter....
The level of " just don't know what you don't know " in today's society is worrisome for this country's future.
It's impossible for me to understand the lack of knowledge people are supposed to have about their country and who leads it.
So true
@@joelsmith3797 true. People have know idea what is about to unfold when Obamas story breaks....
All hell will break loose.. why they are waiting , I do not know...
If they cover up the high treason, the American People will still want to know where Barry got 560 million dollars from in just 4 years....
Senator Kennedy is an ABSOLUTE PRO at asking LIARS questions.🏆👏👏👏👏👏👏
✌❤🇺🇸
Senator Kennedy is fantastic.
now this lady is good. answers questions and definitely realizes the current admin is useless. bravo
She will be cancelled by Democrats.
Imagine how, Biden would answer this questions.
Biden would lie on every question.
Thank you so much for all you post.
EXCELLENT JOB SENATOR KENNEDY ❤❤❤
...as usual ... GREAT questioning by Sen Kennedy ....and great testimony by the articulate lady ....on the weak responses by the Biden administration, who chose to ignore Iran's threat to America!!!!
I'm just worried she will be cancelled by the Democrats.
she is sharp as a tack. answered every question cooly and calmly., she didn;t beat around a single bush
What about not funding either side?!
Oh my gosh! A real witness! Honest, forthright, untutored. Factual. Oh wait, she has nothing to lose.
The way they taxed them is crazy, I wonder where they learned how to do that?
Their insane thoughts and greed.
I love this man. Louisiana should be so proud of him.
So important for people to listen to what is going on!!!!!
We need more leaders like Senator Kennedy.
Listening to this exchange, I am reminded that questions can be very simple, but answers that give us any real information rarely are.
My gosh, I actually feel bad for those two 🤦🏻♀️. They actually agree with Kennedy and can’t really say it out loud
Senator Kennedy is a True American Hero 🎉
Senator Kennedy. Can you come to Canada to help get the answers from our so called leaders? You expect and demand answers. Way to go
I couldn't tell who she was, but I like her! Can't we get some more like her in positions of power?
And Pretty too
And Pretty too
And Pretty too
It is so weird when all of these senators know more bout these people's jobs than they do.
