Naddler is lower than a slug. His posture in his seat shows how much he cares.

[@melchezi8818]

He should not have stood for the National Anthem its a lie.

[@anniefranks6881]

While criminals are being allowed to walk, our Pennsylvania dairy farmers & Amish farmers are being arrested & thrown in jail!

[@handysmith-kv1tc]

Yea........WTK is that BS all about! ........discusting !

[@inezholmes6619]

Totally very wrong!!!

[@marilynstrong309]

I am so sorry! Demorats are not genuinely concerned about the people! Gun violence is not the issue. They did not buy the guns legally. The demorats do not respect these poor families! I feel bad for this city. and the people there.

[@originalgangsta794]

You mean Barn

[@derekholmes4792]

PA is a hell whole portal.

[@jandcschwartz]

Sure crime goes down if it is ignored and not recorded.

[@janetliss4562]

Thank you Jim Jordan for coming to Philadelphia, we need help with all of the crime in our city. Thank you for bringing attention to this. We tried to impeach Krasner but were unsuccessful

He was voted back in?

Scanlon needs to take "her circus" to the unemployment line. Vote her out this November.

[@anthonypotwin5837]

Blaming guns again not criminals

[@AkaHeart1]

NADLER churns my stomach! Watching NADLER make those smirky smiles while Jim Jordan was talking made my blood pressure go up! He’s a horrible human being and useless to all Pennsylvanian citizens! I’m a New Yorker and we too have useless politicians running our states into the toilet!!

[@susanlanglo-killian7096]

As soon as Nadler opened his mealy mouth to defend catch and release prosecutors I got heartburn and had to switch off….

[@kayvee9094]

I can't watch the hearings live. I have to wait so I can fast forward. Leave it to Nadler to bring Trump into lefty Larry's mess.

[@melchezi8818]

Thanks for the heads up.

[@Kokomogirl]

The reason crime is going down is simple. Their police force has been defunded . Resulting in policeman being laid off or fired. The biggest factor is catch n release prosecutor who let's the criminals go. Then goes after the police for doing their jobs. Leading the police officers to fear doing their jobs because it could lead to prosecution. This city is ran by a bunch of "crazzies". avoid at all costs. I've never been there and I never intend to. I understand what's going on . Crime is rampant, criminals fear nothing. This is a city that protects the criminals. Not the victims. Don't expect to be safe within their city. Avoid Philadelphia, drive around it. Rename the state "Mad Max" Philadelphia isn't living up to it's motto " the city of brotherly love" Unless it's identifying with Cane and Able. He got away with murder too.

[@outforbeer]

Why can’t we charge prosecutors or judges who let criminals out as accessory to the crime

[@AS-rp6rk]

Audio is messed up! Democrats must be blocking transmission

[@Curt100]

Exactly!

[@paulromagano2818]

Nadler is such an entirely empty vessel.

Wow just wow red flag laws are not going to work! Anyone with a woke idea would charge a red flag on an enemy!!

He is full of something....

Yes it's called evil. There is a lot of that in the demonrat party.

I really do not think the man has one bit of emotion, no respect for life , he’s like a zombie!

Nadler needs to waddle off into the Louisiana swamp.

[@nickmcdonald6731]

You need cops to enforce laws ... if there's not enough money to equip the cops well enough, no one will want to do the job. Would you work for a company as a welder that could only afford to provide saudering irons to their employees...

[@charlenemocksing6909]

Thank you Jim Jordan for conducting this meeting. 🇺🇸

NADLER IS REALLY THE PENGUIN

The congressman all the way on the right side of the table is a man and calls it clear with no BS. Very refreshing

[@beelin6707]

How people can support this crap is beyond me. Every kiberal city is going through this. Every. Single. One! Sickening.

Why would KZbin cut out Jim Jordan speech

[@kayvee9094]

How dare Scanlon make this about her personal vendetta with Jim Jordan. Scanlon is up for re-election in the 5th district this year. Wake up PA, vote her a$$ out.

[@JB-tj3uy]

Scanlon and Dean are disgusting.

[@merrybell2040]

They are messing with the video so we can't hear you

[@nathanwright845]

of course its messing up jim jordans opening statement!!

[@magst777]

This video is being prevented by KZbin by blipping it.

[@busibee976]

We need Dave McGovern as our Senator. He will make sure our city will get money to fight crime.

[@kendavid4386]

Fat Jerry showed up.

[@jackrideout9482]

Why has KZbin corrupted the audio at Jim Jordan's conclusion!?😮

[@marilynstrong309]

Mr Nadler you are mean. You did not even say you are sorry for the loss of their husband and son.

[@karenclark3325]

Did Fani ever give Jim her information he ask for.

[@Beeheezey-2.0]

Nope she said she doesn't have too😅 They should LOCK HER UP.

[@stevezify]

ms. scanlon was car jacked by an armed man in Philadelphia 2 years ago and seems to be saying crime is not as bad in town

[@busibee976]

The thief must have noted her voting record.

[@billsmith6543]

She disgusts me. I don't know how she sleeps at night. Calling this hearing a circus. I give great credit to those who were testifying who lost love ones for not shouting at her.

[@carriefranklin971]

There's no coverage anywhere on this! It has 208 views from what I see!

[@tijera66]

“Technical difficulties at the beginning”….coincidence 🧐

[@DAISYROSE22]

If the D.A.s and prosecutors are not going to do their jobs, then 'defund" their offices. Cherry picking laws to enforce is a violation of the oaths these elected people take when they assume office. "Lead, follow, or get out of the way, " Lee Iacocca, former CEO Chrysler when leaders still gave a dam.

What is going on with Jim's someone messing with volume.....

[@carolynklestinec8589]

Breaking up too. Awful

[@lynnlambert6448]

Very ,very , sorry for your loss. I remember that happening. My heart really breaks to hear and watch you relive that tragedy. My question is , how many times will smother, father, sister, brother or child , have to stand in this pain, and talk about unimaginable reality! I am so tired of this failure in the system , that I can remain with certainty that God will see us through ( All ) that has corrupted our world; the violence, the drugs, the border, the house that is so divided, that it seems to have lost sight on what truly matters! And that is the people ! and I quote, “We the people , for the People, By the People”. Most is a factor , but most importantly! People come first! Humans are always first! The safety and well being! Fix this mess you people that are the overseer of the people, we do not deserve what we are given, I keep telling myself, this is a dream , but I am awake, and I ‘m just waiting for God’s plan to be carried out according to his will. So hope is not lost, it’s time has not come, good and evil cannot share the same space, meaning, Corruption has it’s time , and the end will come to those that causes it to happen. But joy will come , because God said it would, and he also said that he is a God that cannot lie.

Ahhhhh DEI hiring, Lawyers? That crap gotta stop!!!

[@dirtwolf7721]

Crimes ‘dropped’ because Krazners stopped prosecuting the criminals! Also police have half the amount of officers they used to and need to have!

[@rudraid4]

The person who does not know someone stole their weapon, how does that person report it? .. So they're going to make laws to jail these people .. another law that jails the innocent and not the criminal

[@MichaelLakota-vc4tk]

Pledging allegiance to the flag actually means a hell of a lot more importance than any other time! Should be a daily occurrence like it used to! Also all ALL CHILDREN SHOULD BE TAUGHT THIS AND MAKE A REPORT ON WHAT IT MEANS TO THEM!! Without it they have no clue how good they have it!!

most of Jordan's speaking was chopped up .. why? I noticed this happening a lot to Rep. speakers

I was crying 😭 for the family of Chris , it’s absolutely horrible 😢❤

All you need to do is look at the bank accounts each one of those cases being dropped will coincide with a large donation to someone's political fund

I f ghost gun were actually that easy to make a working gun. A lot of gun owners would have made their own gun instead of buying these ridiculously expensive guns before this became a issue. It was is in the law that's saying you xan build guns. You just have to register it un some states which is unconstitutional.

[@joycehancock3063]

Why does the DA still have the job? Blue state?‼️‼️‼️

[@marilynstrong309]

Your words mean nothing when you say you are sorry for these poor families of loss of their law enforcement. You lie every democrat!
