Rep. Thompson Discusses His Decision To Sue Trump And Giuliani Over Capitol Riot | Ayman Mohyeldin
Yes, Get Giuliani Too!
@Lucy Ricardo Make a claim to me…..I challenge you to back it up. Lololololol.
It YOUR claim. Now you have to support YOUR claim.
@Lucy Ricardo facts matters, so take your time. Just get that evidence 🧾
@Lucy Ricardo only a 5 yrs old child believe that
@Lucy Ricardo I just saw your Antifa link. No such website. When I say get evidence I don’t mean false evidence. I was going to extend your deadline for presenting your evidence, but you have disappointed me. You gave me false evidence.
It is now my duty to award you the Lying Loser Lucy title.
@Randy Couch Fake Patriots you Mean
Add ted Cruz and josh hawley ughhhhhh
@Hardly Quinn your cult is called stupidity
@M J Another one who doesn’t like facts. I’m not the one defending a one term president who lost the popular vote twice and has been impeached twice talk about cult of stupidity.
@Kevin Vang 👍
@Hardly Quinn impeached twice ?? Funny how he finished his term and leaves with all his life time benefits. That shows your ignorance.
@M J He was still impeached twice and it will always be part of his legacy.
Thank you Rep. Bennie Thompson! People tend to forget that we are a country of rules and laws! Some people need to be reminded. Democrats must set the example and lead the way.
@Jim Olsen But they didn’t try to overthrow the gov., did they? tRump is responsible for the insurrection!
@Stewart Douglas I would really like to see what happens with Harris providing bail money for the riots this summer. Yep, aiding felony federal crimes….isn’t that the same thing? Promoting violence and bailing them out for committing crimes is no different than blaming Trump for this. Really think about the double standard. Which was proven in the Senate trail. Good luck – can’t have one sided laws.
LMAO !!!
@Teena Selman stupid comment
What a Commie Racist
First of many is my wish.
You guys won’t stop you are all nuts.
@Henry Volta says the actual cultist nut
It is my wish also. Human Life is cheaper and cheaper here in America. Only Money talks now. You can see it. The only thing wingnuts and cultists are really scared of is being separated from their $$$$. Let the many lawsuits begin.
@Knight’s Pantry They did nothing wrong on Jan. 6th, right? Then it will all be fine after a judge hears the case. Don’t sweat it. Its OK for a president to act that way, right? So nothing to see here.
@Henry Volta There is no reason to stop to get justice. Maybe you should try another run at the captiol since it’s no big deal. Hope you scrubbed your social media!
Finally someone with cahonas in congress
Cojones or cajones. Nice try though Marky Mark.
Bennie Thompson 💜
“There’s no question, None, that the president is practically and morally responsible for provoking the events of that day” Mitch Mcconnel.
…. but let’s acquit him because I’m a coward
Trump did no such thing!
@Dustin Byrd
Don’t forget TRAITOR. 😈👍🇺🇸✌
@Lemay he did too Stevie Wonder!!!
@David Garcia OBVIOUSLY DID NOT!! The blind SHEEP one is YOU!!
Can’t wait till the IRS requires ole Trump and his family to “pay their fair share of taxes”!!! Stop the Delay🤗🙌🤗
@Stevia Liver as the children resort to perry insults on the interwebs …… shocking.
@Cliff MedinaYet he made millions by over charging Secret Service Agents for lodging at HIS resorts during his 300 plus golfing outings!!!😂😂😂
How about what reverend Al owes?
What taxes the greatest president in history president trump who WON by the way WORKED AS PRESIDENT FOR FREE and he donated his salary to different charities. O TAXES OWED
@Mike Flanagan: LOL!!! Good point. However Ole Trump has only paid $750 for 2 years in a row and $0 for multiple years!!! 😩😩😩😩
Jason Miller is a known liar.
Just ask his ex-wife and kids.
Traitor Trump only knows the best liars and seditionist…
THIS is a GOOD thing….. keep coming at the Orange ROT… Something IS gonna STICK …….as it SHOULD !!!
I hope Representative Bennie Thompson has appropriate security or he might become a martyr.
No American can take past behavior for granted as the country is descending into political violence.
I’m very happy to see this happening.We don’t have riots on or in the Capital Building. We are not a third world country. We are a nation of laws, not goons!
Unlike the way the Democrats shitbags ran the streets burning and looting for 4 years.
Jool’s from Australia
This is a good more totally agree
Be progressive strong stay safe 👍
Stay right where you are and enjoy your Chinese overlords.
Should name 2 Senators and the 5 Representatives that had been speaking to MAGA crowds about Jan 6th, and the Trump Campaign, Inc for funding it.
I only hope it gets to court before Melania pulls the lever to get her half.
eh.. they still have lots of Goya stock they can sell. They ain’t broke…yet.
👍
Awesome, he should win easily.
No, nothing will happen to Trump
Lol just like the past 4 years looks like history repeats itself like mccarthy doctrine.
Well played Sir, take McConnell up on his offer, I mean he did say this should play itself out in the courts.
LOL did anyone remember the tweet it’s going to be wild.
nothing says fight like this
also, there was the conversation between trump and mccarthy. mccarthy basically begging trump to call the national guard. trump was going to allow the failed terrorist attack to continue
GUMBY JOE SCARBOROUGH MURDERED THAT POOR GIRL
