Neal Katyal: Amy Coney Barrett Is Locked In By Trump's Own Statements | The 11th Hour | MSNBC

  1. 88% of congress is up for re-election next month!

    Voting is 100% more effective than complaining on the internet.

    1. @Warmly Calculated Thank you for admitting that Biden criticized Trump’s actions against China, calling it zina phobic. However if Joe were the president at that time, he most likely would not of stopped travel from Hotspots like China! Millions more would now be dead and sick because of Joe Biden, I hope your grandmother gets better, I’m sure she will in fact I am 97 percent sure of it.

    2. @J.c m even if Russia doesn’t back them, they could still get the W.
      You have to consider the US dollar being rejected. That means no more trade, stock market crashes completely, no more oil or gas, the collapse of our banking system snd so on.

      With this upcoming election, there will be riots and possibly a small war. Our internal affairs is going to distract us. Russia will always back China. They will come in, launch an EMP, then nuke us.

    3. @Warmly Calculated Countless studies just to clarify a few things the testing was not available, early on the Obama Administration never planned for this even after the Ebola outbreak. Second Masks and respirators do not work.There have been extensive randomized controlled trial (RCT) studies, and meta-analysis reviews of RCT studies, which all show that masks and respirators do not work to prevent respiratory influenza-like illnesses, or respiratory illnesses believed to be transmitted by droplets and aerosol particles.Furthermore, the relevant known physics and biology, which I review, are such that masks and respirators should not work. It would be a paradox if masks and respirators worked, given what we know about viral respiratory diseases: The main transmission path is long-residence-time aerosol particles (< 2.5 μm), which are too fine to be blocked, and the minimum-infective dose is smaller than one aerosol particle.

    4. @Warmly Calculated Just to follow up on my last comment, it was in fact Dr. Anthony Fauci that told Americans not to wear mask, and I quote ;Dr. Anthony Fauci the nation’s top infectious disease expert, says he doesn’t regret advising Americans against wearing masks early on in the COVID-19 pandemic.

    5. @J.c m I’m not a #resistance lib, I find Fauci’s statement completely irresponsible. We can’t know whether Joe would’ve killed more, that’s not germane. Thank you for the kind words about my grandmother, she hasn’t been having lung problems yet, at least.

  2. Politicians and the media aren’t even basing anything off of politics anymore they are basing everything off of emotions…

    1. @Rodney “gender not being a choice would be one example.” That’s exactly what you said and guess what, the leftist media has hopped on that exact same idea. While you’re at it, stop liking your own comments. I thought you were an informed citizen but in reality, it seems like you have no clue what you are talking about. Your ignorance from my previous comment shows. A lot of people who read it understood exactly what I meant.

    2. @Jimmy MacKinnon you’re misinterpreting my original comment. I in no way support today’s irrational thesis on gender identity. I had to word my original comment a certain way or YouTube will automatically delete it. You assuming I like my own comments only shows how insecure you are by putting value on how many likes a statement gets. I could care less. About your “orientation” rant…. it would make sense if I used that word but I didn’t so not only were you assuming things but you also lumped in the whole racial aspect. You’re pathetic and have no original things to offer to this world other than your fake outrage and imaginary moral superiority.

    3. @Rodney Wait, a second. So you say that you don’t like the comments that you make. Ok, so that’s the very definition of a troll. Bye bye. You’re getting reported.

    4. @Rodney 😂 I literally copied and pasted your own words. You seem to have some realization about yourself.

    1. @Dench2020 you’re too far gone if you think mainstream media doesn’t have their own agenda. It’s all crap now.

    2. @Dench2020 lol. Anyone with functioning eyes realizes that the media is heavily biased. Why don’t they talk about Biden at all? All they do is talk about Trump. Again, biased.

  3. And the news anchor on the left … whose name I forget… Brian someone ??? Who is now working at MSNBC (of course) because of a story he did some years ago, that was found out to be lies. Typical of MSNBC employees.

    1. They’ve stuck that on systematically for years now. I think that it was a symbol of his “junior” status at the time, as they never make Rachel Maddow or Lawrence O’Donnell do that. But as soon as Chris started doing his live-audience show he became more of a star, even with a covid format. I think they should get rid of that clip, and Ari Melber’s as well.

  4. Do people realise that having had covid-19, regardless of how badly, can be used by insurance companies to remove cover by calling it ‘a precondition’. By the same token, 80% of Americans take a prescription medication once a week or more. So that ‘pre-condition’ for which the medication is taken can be used to deny any costs related to covid-19 illness. So far, that would disqualify over a million Americans from any insurance benefit, whether for current treatment for covid-19, or any later medical treatment if they’ve ever had covid-19 because it does lasting damage. No doubt this is why big pharma is providing financial support to McConnell and Trump among others, and why the notion of ‘let it rip’ has been presented to Trump as a good idea.

    1. Diane O’donovan, those are both outright lies. As VP Pence said, “you’re entitled to your opinion, but not your own facts”. You are what makes Liberals such scum. Fear mongering because you have no facts.

  5. “HANDMAID’S TAIL” Final season – coming to your country America . Aunt Lydia is in the house ….and you let it happen….

    1. Cedric Sportes, your picture appears to be a man, yet you speak like a woman. So how many abortions have you had? What gives you the right to speak on a women’s perspective?

    2. Does she have a furry tail, or is it naked like a rat’s? I guess one could argue that _1984_ is the alternative, or, perhaps, _A Brave New World_?

  6. Hey, guys. Last night I was in our pub again. After I had about 15-20 beers in me, I must have talked some total nonsense. There were also three Americans among the guests. And what can I tell you: They were so enthusiastic about the sick stuff that fell out of my mouth that they wanted to elect me as the next PotUS.

  7. Amy seems like a nice lady, she is nothing like Trump, neither cocky, nor pompous and arrogant, shoots from the hip, and keeps things short and sweet. I would believe anything she says, her opinion seems as honest as humanly possible, a really nice lady, who would make a great addition to any group..

  8. This is getting very interesting. We will be discussing elections in the US on our next episode. Please do tune in 🙂
