The videos of these sessions are HOURS long. Some over 6 hours. To create these snippets from the session is a very laborious effort. Is there any on-line tool available for lifting just short segments from a long video on YouTube?
Can we just tie the wealth class to the trolley tracks and then tell them unfortunately they did not allot enough hours that day for a qualified switch operator.
A polite request in these trying times, if anyone wants to identify that smirking chairperson and some idea when/what this is? I don’t know the faces of all the clowns in this circus. =(
The US system has so many issues even when it functions as it's intended, but now the actual political landscape has completely degraded to where one major party will just oppose every single action by the other major party, no matter what it is, with zero regard to how it affects everyone else! This is a fundamental issue that will either take a long time to fix, by which time massive damage would be done, or it'll all end in violence. Both options suck...
Ike was the last president of the "Party of Lincoln". After that, Republicans turned their back on any of their good ideas, embraced greed, and, not long after, courted the ex-Democrat bigots who threw a fit that LBJ passed the Civil Rights Act.
Republicans used to use their money for the benefit of the U.S. - and of Americans - before Senator Joe McCarthy decided that "communism" and "socialism" were the scariest words in the universe. Crazy, huh?
No, you see, they are extremely compatible. What they're NOT compatible with is allowing people who make less than six figures to live.
They will absolutely take advantage of public safety nets, and they will absolutely make sure that people are taken care of ---- as long as those people are business owners who take home millions upon millions off the backs of others.
Because the mega-$$$ they get from the super-wealthy mean more to them than the votes of people with hungry kids, ailing elders and medical conditions.
I 100% belive this happens but is this video in particular not just diffrent hearings cut together? Idk i guess i just thought more discusion went in before they say no
No they're not. (US) Society taught them that there are no consequences to fear if you're rich enough. They behave exactly like kids that never had to endure any consequences. That's why he carries this horrible smirk. He knows he can fuck around without to fear the find out part. I So hope he finally gets served what he deserves!
This. Sociopathy is a result of a mental disorder, but it is not classified as "insane" - the defining trait of which seems to be an inability to distinguish right from wrong.
They're able to distinguish it just fine. They know exactly where their deeds fall on the morality scale. They just don't care.
And they know they don't have to care cause nothings gonna happen to them. The justice sytems is so flawed it will try to protect those in power cause it sees them at having more value than the poor.
agreed... and Americans elected them to their current positions of power. The DNC is a joke (non-humour variety) and the US form of democracy is designed for a few and certainly not "we, the people...".
I read that as "canning". I'm game for it, but we'll need a lot of aluminum for all those cans. We can preserve the rich to eat them all through winter this way.

This whole administration’s end goal is to own all the wealth of the US. Sorry America

"The 'NOs' appear to have it." Said with a fucking smirk.
The GOP is the "Party of Pirates." The wealthy are looting this nation and they fund the Republican Party to keep this "grift party" going.

That smirk when he saw that his people voted no to getting the rich to pay their fair share just made me want to see him punched in the face

Smugly smirking while condemning the weakest members of his society to death and destruction demands a more bladed response than fists.

Yeah, I was thinking aluminum baseball bat.

How can you say something like that?
A wooden bat is a much more suitable base because you can properly embed blades, spikes, and shit-encrusted barbed wire.
