Tired of these weirdos doing press and spitting all over the room with their nonanswers

[@artiefount]

Is he KJPs brother? He blithers just like her and says nothing

[@exiledhebrew1994]

What’s the point of asking questions if he never answers them. Why even bother showing up

[@richardpharo2556]

They’re stalling they have a plan they’re not ready

[@BrokenCrushedby]

All they do is say what they already did

[@Wargasm54]

Whatever happened to the U.S. policy on not negotiating with terrorists?

[@BrokenCrushedby]

Exactly no answers they're full of s***

[@chorizon8325]

Has Isreal ever fought alongside the United States and it's wars ???? Why should the U.S help Isreal in their very own conflict ?

[@andrewdeere3865]

Ok. Now pay us back with what u take from Russia

[@DrOrtho1732]

They throw the word retaliation around, like it means nothing, retaliation means punching back, someone punched first, and maybe the state living under apartheid has reason to defend themselves, maybe the invaders just have big strong stupid friends.

[@velob11]

Who is this man child? Our enemies quake with laughter.

[@artiefount]

Someone hack his computer, be there's some interesting stuff there🤓

[@robertcarr5534]

Nothing the state department says it’s incredible

[@wtfpwnz0red]

This video is titled incorrectly. I came here for Ukraine updates, as the title implied. I'm about two thirds through now and they've spent almost the whole time talking about the middle east.

[@BrokenCrushedby]

They say uh like 50x just to k time.

[@artiefount]

"Thank you for that question "

[@richardcarlson1850]

DEI hire!

[@konixtwenty8275]

The Kursk offensive has gone nowhere. Ukraine failed to capture the nuclear plant and their troops are being decimated. Already lost over 2,000 soldiers, 35 tanks, Bradleys, Patriot system, etc. What a stupid decision to go into Kursk region.

[@dpellek74]

Dei hire. So sad

[@jtrace-444]

Working around the clock Everyday!?!....on Double Meat...Double Cheeseburgers.....and Flat 🥿

[@user-hu9gk5ok1s]

Stop sending my taxes to Ukraine

[@SherryGratton-c9m]

WHERE'S THE AUDIT FOR UKCRANE !!! STATE DEPARTMENT ???

[@kennethvenezia4400]

Empty talk, talk, talk. How appropriate the format is being presented by Forbes

[@michaelhanson9918]

This guy is not the sharpest tool in the shed

[@1973oiler]

Blah blah blah

[@desmondwarrington9777]

I am trying to understand....this guy is so quick to say Israel has a right to defend itself, Ukraine has a right to defend itself.. but he has a problem having Iran to defend itself .. does that make sense?

[@kajokolewani7400]

Zelensky Is playing with fire!!!!!

[@cruelladevil1001]

Another dei hire

[@dr1453]

I’ll have fries with my nothing burger.

[@SusannaKiviranta]

Why do lie😕

[@bernadinedavenport2132]

Stop these Lies... All Lies

Yes, my dear brothers, my beloved Palestine is the cradle of Christianity and Judaism, and it contains Al-Aqsa, the third holiest place for us Muslims in Palestine. Bethlehem, the cradle of Christ, is a blessed land, and it is the holy land, and it has been our land for tens of thousands of years, and it is the land of the Canaanite Arabs, the original Palestinian people, and they have lived in it since the Islamic conquest in the era. The Umayyad, Abbasid and Ottoman Arabs, Muslims, Christians and Jews are like brothers and neighbors under Palestinian rule to the owners of the land, but the Zionists came and the British occupation brought them to our land as compensation to the Jews for what they did to them Hitler. The question here is that who did the Holocaust, the Germans, why do I, the Palestinian Arab, pay the price? Why not Germany? Why do I, the Muslim, pay the price for crimes? Committed by the Germans and Nazi Europe, fascism is the root of all evil in the world. Our problem is the occupation🙏Palestine is an area of ​​more than 27 thousand square kilometers and is on the borders of Egypt and Jordan, which historically is part of Palestine and the people of Jordan, more than 70 percent of whom are of Palestinian origin, but Britain made them a state and brought agents to the Jordanian ruling dynasty in order to rule Jordan and protect the occupation from the Jordanian-Palestinian people Palestine Its capital, Jerusalem, is the land of the Palestinian people for tens of thousands of years. It is the cradle of Christianity and Judaism, and it is the third holiest place for us Muslims. It is a land where most of God’s prophets lived, were born, and died. It is the holy and blessed land and the land of the Palestinian and Arab people. Muslims, Jews, and Christians lived there for thousands of years as neighbors and brothers before the Zionists occupied our land. Britain brought them in the Balfour Declaration to occupy our land. Those who committed the Holocaust against the Jews were the Germans and the West, not me.🙏🙏🙏اللهم ارنا في امريكا عجائب قدرتك

Check his devices and hard drives. He is a weirdo for sure. We need to drain the swamp!
