They are all schooled in the art of bullshit. This one does it with a smirk on his face.

[@beckysharpe20]

Unreal

[@thegigglystinkfinger8515]

Because it's all a joke

[@idojacoby6984]

You should take action against this.

What an electrifying hearing and just like an EV on a snowy day. No one will be CHARGED.

[@juneabfalter7361]

Another affirmative action hiring😢😢😢

[@TheTonyddd1]

Wow....not even trying to hide your racism.

[@michaelantal]

Yep... it says it all over his smug face... not only does affirmative action enable unqualified people to reach positions that they're unqualified for or lack the experience necessary, it gives that person a sense of entitlement because they've been handed an 'easy mode' for life... All these DEI hires are sooo unbelievably arrogant and the day that the world comes to it's senses and corrects this societal bias, will be the day the world can begin moving forward again

[@Billbilly6969]

All day

[@ilovemydanes]

This guy sounds like he has been "Programmed" to say the same thing over and over like a robot....smh...

[@charlesbrown9213]

Yes, that is exactly what John Kennedy sounds like. An Israeli-programmed 304.

[@XaxtonRevolution2]

He’s a bureaucrat he is a robot.

[@UShoIsUgly41]

The truth doesn’t change, so why should his answer to the hillbilly questioning him.

[@Deescizzle]

He literally answered every dumn ass question that Kennedy posed to him. What more do you want? Kennedy is putting words in his mouth and Adewale is politely answering his questions.

[@dianeleamy8945]

Kennedy basically spends his time trying to trick people and lay out his own agenda, disgusting

[@edithblehm2340]

What is this person going to do when it turn south? Glad I'm not in his shoes.

[@La19930]

Liar, Liar, Your conscience is on Fire 🔥

[@ElizabethTomlin-fn5qi]

God Bless Sen. Kennedy & his Intestinal fortitude better known to us common folk as GUTS!!

[@TheJimicus]

Being an angry old guy doesn't equal having a valid point.

[@Redwarfa]

Doesnt he hate it when he is proved wrong but won't admit it

[@UndeniableSA]

As a fellow Nigerian, i'm very ashamed of this man.

[@vdoggydogg3922]

he is american, not nigerian.

[@UndeniableSA]

@@vdoggydogg3922 His origin is Nigerian. Educate yourself before responding.

[@vdoggydogg3922]

@@UndeniableSA he is an American citizen. That's all that matters.

[@willyjimmy8881]

If he is nigerian he is a good American cosplayer.

[@Ziegfried82]

@@UndeniableSA guys like that don't understand ethnicity or national origin. They just want to say, "EVERYBODY IS AMERICAN IF THEY ARE BORN IN THE USA". And while that is true, it is also true that we all have ancestors who came from other parts of the world, other nations..the only exception to that would be the Native Americans.

[@Daisy-cu5tu]

Thank you Senator Kennedy.

[@tommykaji4414]

This is the reason why I say no to affirmative action.

[@mjcadillac815]

They gave Iran huge sums of money and told them they could only be used for humanitarian needs? The stupidity of that is really hard to fathom

[@johndouai4833]

Well, look what they did in Ukraine. 35+ BioLabs funded by AMERICA? And that wasn't true according to the O'|Bidens? WAKEY, WAKEY.
