Of course because the radical left doesn't care about the Constitution they care about the talmud. This is why every Democrat politician supports Jewish law on abortion which is selective abortion all the way up to birth rather than supporting the Constitution which tells us selective abortion AKA child murder is a violation of the Constitution Democrats also created laws taking away our constitutional right to bear arms. They also took away our constitutional right to free speech and practice religion by compelling Us in speech to acknowledge their gender Faith as both a physical and moral reality The left hates the Constitution they hate the founding fathers and they hate America. What's so disgusting about it is the fact that they use their illegal Invaders to overthrow the will of the true Americans.

[@RichardLelandLevineIII.]

Exactly and what's a better example of that than an affirmative action higher on the supreme Court who can't define a woman m Can you even named one Democrat politician just one that supports the Constitution rather than the talmud law on abortion which is selective abortion all the way up to birth. The left has already taken away the constitutional right to free speech, the constitutional right to practice religion the constitutional right to bear arms and the constitutional right to life This is because the radical left and their army of tens of millions of illegal Invaders couldn't care less about the Constitution the culture customs traditions and laws created by the forefathers of the people on the right, the founding fathers. This is why radical leftist toppled down the statues of the founding fathers of the Constitution disrespect our national anthem but stand that respect to the black national anthem. Unfortunately the left has no courage of their convictions and they choose to live under what the people indigenous to Western civilization created this constitutional republic.. I don't know why they choose to live under something they hate so much.

The vast majority of veterans disagree with you. Why would you support a traitor to the United States like Joe Biden. A man who uses tens of millions of illegal Invaders to overthrow the will of the true American people. A man who is not only a garbage president the worst president in the history of the United States taking the title from Barack Obama but he's also a garbage human being. Look what he did to his 11-year-old daughter in the shower. He's also weaponizing the government institutions to go after his political opponents not for crimes that is political opponent committed but for crimes Joe Biden himself committed. Like the time he admitted on national TV that he stole top secret documents for over five decades as a senator and then got caught on audio tape selling it to his biographer for 8 million dollars. Look at how much danger he put the soldiers in. Leaving thousands of Americans behind and 85 billion dollars worth of military weapons in the hands of our enemies. Having our soldiers protect Israel's borders while America's borders are being invaded. Joe Biden is a traitor to the United States and again he snatched Barack Obama's title as the worst president in the history of the United States. The traitor Joe actually allowed a spy balloon from China to fly all over the United States. He and the other traitor Barack Obama had our soldiers fighting in three wars for 8 years then defunded those soldiers and took 38 billion they saved taken away from the soldiers and gave it to Israel's military as a gift to keep their soldiers safe.

How are we to tell the bad motives from the “excusable” errors? Accepting so many mistakes/errors in job duties allows for too much corruption across the board! Much “oopsie booboos” are small or seem small things but we never know until they happen to us or someone we know because errors often have long-term side affects teaching into other areas of life!

Yep we are blessed to see the fumbling and crumbling of law makers by God. We see how things are ran when wicked men are in rule. So Sad

Welcome to Banana Republic America.

History will judge them. What a legacy.

[@anthonyhernandez3272]

Some Supreme Court should not be allowed to be there. They should be two terms only or four years! We, the american people, need to vote that in !

[@SuniPaz]

Well said Lawrence. You are loved and respected!!

[@DavidHughes-op6zl]

I've only recently come across Mr O'Donnell. What a tremendous 'find'. Not only is every word he utters worth listening to but, also, he delivers them with well‐spoken English.

[@andreaorourke4275]

So now a person gets admonished and "put in the corner " for telling the truth? UNBELIEVABLE!!!

[@capiglines598]

Thank you, Lawrence, for documenting that speech, because now it will live on, even though the words have been stricken from the official record. God forbid we should have the truth in the record….we can only talk about the trial as a sham, and not the criminal trials that they are. And your discussion of the Bushes clarifies so many things!

[@lyndaweister9984]

@capiglines598~EXACTLY 🎯 I wasn't aware of the History of the Bushes(George&George W.) Thank U for the Info!!

As a teacher, I am seeing and experiencing disrespect from students significantly more than ever in my 30 year career. I believe it is a direct result of the disrespect exhibited by the people holding some of the highest positions in our nation. This is lead by the ex (and hopefully never again) president.

[@barbaramonaco105]

I hear the same from long time teachers I know. Elected officials, with some exceptions, used to value at least the appearance of decorum. It doesn't matter now. Civility is fading from our society. Civility

[@almacoleman6350]

Does Alabama not have a single fair and intelligent individual to run for office? Alabama is clearly not sending their best 🙄

[@frankhowarth1972]

I respect and have great affection for Lawrence O'Donnell one of our country's fine truth tellers. God bless Lawrence !

[@peaceloveharmony7213]

So here we are, folks! A member of Congress reads at about a 4th grade level. It’s apparent that the majority of his constituents either didn’t notice that or they didn’t care. It’s difficult to decide which is worse. 😮😢

[@barbaramonaco105]

They don't care. His district has been solid red for 60 years running. They will elect any good old boy with an R behind his name .

[@Sckvictor]

Unbelievable is the word. I rest my case.

[@Don-md6wn]

Jerry Lee Carl - 3 first names and pronounces Massachusetts "Mattatusetts". 🤣🤣🤣

[@rosarionorton2228]

Lawrence O'Donnell , you're BEST JOURNALIST. You're AWESOME 👍👍👍❤❤❤

[@bonnyriby-williams3102]

I hope there is an investigation into all of Alito’s rulings.!!

[@John-js8yo]

Great reporting good news

[@jamesloran7916]

excellent piece

[@SeanGelarden]

The worst part about Thomas is he's supposed to be a replacement for Thurgood Marshall 😢😢

[@anitadees4223]

Agreed. Justice Thurgood Marshall was a man of unquestionable integrity and legal scholarship.

[@ralphlichtenwalner9223]

They may strike the words...BUT, WORDS OF TRUTH CANNOT BE U HEARD,nor CAN THEY BE UNHEARD

[@rosaana6190]

Lawrence, Thank you for this video!!!! Once again a master class journalism!

[@xiaoka]

He’s worse than Clarence in many ways. Almost as nuts as Gini Thomas. 😂

[@Badgersj]

It's no easy business to fly a proper flag upside down. You have to change the mountings otherwise the flag will fly halfway down the mast. So either the flag outside Alito's house is just a store-bought knock-off probably made in China, or someone's put some serious work into changing it so it flies at the top of the mast. I think Mr Alito would have noticed it.

[@peaceloveharmony7213]

That is incorrect. I’ll explain why. A flag has metal eyelets and a flagpole rope has snap hooks/carabiner hooks that go thru those eyelets. Whether top corner or bottom corner, the eyelet’s holes are the same size, just as the hooks/clips that go thru them. Attaching a flag - either upside down or upside up - to the secured clips on a flagpole rope does not affect the position/height at which the flag flies. The person who raises and lowers that flag controls its pole position. ✌🏼🇺🇸

[@Badgersj]

@@peaceloveharmony7213 I take that correction, just that the old Royal Navy flag I have has the cord sewn to the flag with the loops at the top and the bottom, and the bottom cord is much longer than the top, so if you fly it upside down the flag flies much lower than if it's flown the right way up.

[@bgz42]

Jerry Carl should be tried for treason.

[@gladysradic4344]

Lawrence O’Donnell WE NEED YOU!

Was it yesterday or the day before?Biden gave that speech where he told people we can only relax trump? Either way , it's good to hear Biden finally being honest about

[@TheNewsInASL]

geraldbellamy8750 Let's wait and do that after Trump gets back into office. Oh, what's that? Now you don't like the idea of packing the Supreme Court?

[@carlettesouthern-robert2992]

​ Trump for Prison 2024!

[@carlettesouthern-robert2992]

​Trump For Prison 2024💥

[@ldbarthel]

Obviously that wasn't appropriate application of parliamentary procedure. But it was eerily reminiscent of authoritarian rules, such as it is treasonous to say anything negative about the king. To allude to Jefferson in the musical "1776", "Nevertheless, he is a tyrant. We might as well say so."

[@paulaskerston8792]

Thank you for telling it as it is Lawrence.

[@adequatedrainage6380]
