This is disgusting. ABSOLUTELY disgusting. Pelosi??? SAD day for America. Retribution is coming

[@Vrie.]

Exactly! I am disgusted with this government

[@MoonJD1]

These politicians are elected to represent the people. If they abuse their power, which they are doing. It's in the constitution that the people can call out a tyrannical government. In other words, remove them. They're disgusting. They're helping our enemies and stopping free trade with our allies. This is happening in all Western civilized countries. It's not an accident. This is on purpose.

[@joelyates2404]

Presidential medal of freedom just got devalued.

[@estellacohen7122]

Hardly......finally Jim Thorp and Medgar Evers get their well deserved moment of national recognition. If you don't know who they are search the internet.......textbooks probably won't have them!

[@Jimo1956]

Whine, whine, whine ...

💯 devalued

[@bobbobbington3615]

​@@estellacohen7122So Pelosi was a fluke or something?

[@markskelton1127]

I spit my drink out when I saw this. Blind leading the blind. Vote Trump in November even if they shamefully throw him in a jail cell.

[@mickeyronney4255]

Hilarious

[@Jimo1956]

Tell us what kind of 'drink' you wasted and when.

[@markskelton1127]

It was a mouth full of wine. I don't sip, I guzzle.

[@markskelton1127]

🤣

[@kristalraya730]

trump leads the blind 😂

[@WhoaBo]

He also gave the award to Nancy Pelosi and John Kerry, if you want to laugh even harder. So he gave awards to 3 Democrats, and not a single Republican. If you want to know why this nation is so partisan and divided, its because Biden does stuff like this.

[@kristalraya730]

And so have other Republicans presidents. 😂 So you are mad about what they all do.

[@brianheid5394]

Yeah, like when Trump gave it to Limbaugh.

She's great but there's nothing to do with Freedom

Our country is falling apart and this is what joey is spending his time on? Worst president ever!!

There's nothing to do with Freedom for being a good actress.

Al Gore? For what?

[@Vrie.]

For selling us out

He also gave the award to the lady who made up the Juneteenth holiday. Of course he did.

Canceled indefinitely anyway to not draw attention away from June being LGBTQUH+*% month.

Pelosi ? Wow, now thats just down right bs.

[@Jimo1956]

You think McCarthy and Johnson should get one? How about Jordan, Gaetz, MTG, Boebart and the likes? But ... I BET A REPUBLICAN WILL GET ONE NEXT YEAR; DURING BIDEN'S SECOND TERM ... Mitt Romney.

[@RAWBOT301]

What a joke. Al Gore told us my house would be underwater by 2020...

Where's the one to Donald Trump? The Abraham Accords!!!

[@Jimo1956]

Trump wouldn't have been able to attend because he's sitting in court. Easy.

[@DadSon-cg6hm]

@@Jimo1956 lots of award winners didn't attend because it's meaningless. They sent someone else to get the award for him.

Every now and then. But compared to Trumps speeches lately ...

[@wandameadows5736]

These medals don't mean anything.

[@joebriggs5781]

I agree with the outrage on Pelosi, but why Al Gore? He invented the internet!

[@benjaminsanders3908]

What did Al Gore do to get a medal execpt for second runner up?

[@Jimo1956]

He deservesone for the simple fact of accepting "second runner up" with dignity and for the sake of the country, instead of whining and spreading the big lie 'stolen election. The other "runner up', the loser ... what was he name again?

[@vincentbarney3091]

He found Man Bear Pig

[@WoodJack99]

His lifetime of service and his acceptance of the outcome of the close and accepted election of 2000 (unlike you know who).

[@anitadi7351]

Freedom means not illegal, against the law.

[@davidbuck5864]

Gore does not deserve a medal. What a farce!

[@Jimo1956]

Whine, whine, whine.

[@RotuaRatnawati]

What Michelle Yeoh do with freedom???

Listen and watch again a 2nd time. You'll possibly grasp it then. If not ... don't waste youe time watching such events. Try Fox News.

He also gave awards to Republican politicians and catholic priests and civil rights activists as well as scientists and an astronaut. When Trump gave his awards he gave 10 to Republican politicians and even one that ran his media company, 12 sports athletes including 4 golfing pros. He didnt award any Democrate.

27:29, Liddy Dole is a really good person and patriot. This is what the Republican party used to be. Good, decent and not extreme.
