Did they have good reason? Was he trafficking guns? The lack of body cams is suspicious obviously. But let’s not act like every time a government agent (like a cop) kills a civ, it wasn’t warranted. Cops kill civilians every day technically. But I’m general there are proper reasons for it.

[@DrDangerPuppy]

Talking about subjects unrelated to the subject of the hearing should result in 1 warning and then expulsion from the meeting. 3 of these and then expulsion from congress.

Plasket needs to go

[@donaldpeterson4975]

And I thought this was supposed to be about the weapoization of the ATF NOT Trump.

[@Bbdrifty]

Exactly, that lady is trying to change the narrative of this hearing to something about Trump… wtf… smh 🤦🏻‍♂️ 13:07

[@danabney4433]

It’s the new play they are running, “do your best to tie all negatives to Trump and all positives to Biden” … it’s basically a Hail Mary pass.

[@Bbdrifty]

This woman is such a liar and is trying to link “children” having accidents and gang violence to innocent people getting killed. When they say “it’s the number 1 killer of children” they are including those numbers under “accidents” and not just firearms. Also, gang violence shouldn’t be included in this statistic because it’s not an accidental death… But I’m sure they will continue to deceive the public about it…

[@jasone3962]

Why did she kind of laugh when she talked about the death of Mr malinowski? Also she talks shit about them criticizing ATF and FBI but when it's people like Brianna Taylor who were killed does she still feel that same way? I doubt it if it's a black person who's killed by the ATF then the ATF is bad

[@sallya.rhodes8592]

Government is way out of hand!!!

[@pattyotool9548]

don't worry they will investigate themselves and no wrong doing will be found

[@3dpyromaniac560]

Then if any agents are charged by the Arkansas AG, they will have those dismissed just like when the FBI had the manslaughter charge against Lon Horiuchi dropped.

This guy was NOT a criminal or had been involved in criminal activity. The Democrats are wrong in their arguments. Apples and oranges. These people are despicable.

[@kaith151]

This stared with this 👹woman talking nonsense!!! She is wasting our time and money for sure….. we the people are not stupid!!!😡

[@shwngbr]

ATF could of executed the search warrant at any other time. They chose to treat it as a high risk arrest warrant.

[@jugz9130]

Yeah this was personal. They had a grudge against him for some reason..

11 minutes and 29 seconds this woman needs to be kicked out of this Council and lose her job not about Trump

[@aarongarcia9880]

Don't stop Mr. Jordan. America needs you including the voters that hate you.

[@Because223]

The ATF needs to be abolished immediately they have no accountability or relevance to even exist neither does the welfare program

I agree completely!

I passed over the mop with a light blue jacket who changed the subject to Trump after Mike Jordan's intro.

[@tnewland4571]

How many guns are actually legal that they are obtaining? You didn't mention fentanyl as a number one killer. This woman is only promoting her own reterick

[@reverendmorgano9659]

The ATF has an annual budget of 1.4 billion and previously had a budget of 1.5 billion with only about 5,000 full-time employees, most of which don't require body cams yet they can't afford body cams for the ones that do require them because they're "underfunded". What a croc.

[@BenjaminMaller]

It wasn't meant as a search. It was meant as a hit.

[@TwrZon-4all]

A search you say...??? Wow, all those officers equipped with weapons in your home at 6 a.m. without any warning for a possible crime.

[@Ladyheartwork]

Debby Wasserman Schultz follows the horrific account of a man being murdered by AFT, by changing the subject. She is essentially defending this murder. I hope she meets the family.

[@beardedslavbrew615]

As a Jewish person she doesn't represent us for towing the Democratic communist lines she does.

[@erikanderson3102]

This is not a political thing these two women need to be recused out of this assembly
