Plaskett is the absolute worst. That opening statement was a stain on decency and honesty, and she's a disgrace to the nation.
guess what area she represents lol
How can she possibly state those"facts" with a straight face?? Almost all Dems have bold faced lied in every hearing I've watched. Very sad for this country.
U.S. Virgin Islands and she doesn’t have a vote.
@@rconach she shouldn't have a voice in these hearings, either.
Well that explains alot. She swims with the predator Island owning billionaires like Epstein
So funny that she is talking about the former president and then goes through a list of all the things Binden is actually doing.
They’re trying to gaslight us, and in the same breath say they’re being gaslighted.
Yeah, that's kind of what I figured out over the years. that the Democrats are doing the exact thing that they're accusing of the Republicans of doing
I was just thinking that ha
Yes, we all can see how they do the crimes and hang it on Trump, republicans or conservatives……and who does this Lady think she’s fooling? Oh right, right the dems base….
Yeah, unfortunately, that's part of the political playbook - accuse your opponents of the very thing that you are guilty of....(projection) 😔
Lol, they never miss an opportunity to drag Trump into the fray, no matter what the subject.
They should… he’s a dangerous sociopath that is worse than H*TLeR ever was or could’ve beeen. He’s terrifying he just can’t wait to press the big red button…. No one can control him… only hope he’s on some serious medication if he’s ever actually voted in again…. . If I could go anywhere he wouldn’t start a war with, iD be gone there now, but I’m stuck next door to to y’all in Canada…. 🤷🏻♀️
@@JeanineH Earth to Jeanine...
@@IWantMyCountryBack2Earth to you. Don’t you listen to what he says? He is not fit to be a President.
@@JeanineH Really? Hitler id responsible for the death of 6 millions jews plus everyone who died trying to defeat him in the second world war. How is the mean orange man worst? I'm not trumpist at all, I think he should have some restraint when he talks in public. But you are indoctrinated passed sanity...
@@williamclayton7343 regardless, you have to admit Jeanine is a bit hyperbolic
Thank God they are having these hearings!!!🌄👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿
Trump? Why are they talking about trump in this hearing?
They do it at every hearing and every time they get on camera 😮😊😊
@@sunnytt9466 what happens when the topic is bad for you. Do they realize, if trump is as bad as they say and all this surveillance is still in place he'll use it against them? Or they know it's bullshit.
Because Democrats have nothing else to run on.
rent free
Same reason they bring him up in the comments section of every video. They hate him, but can't get over him.
the lady beside Jordan is PURE EVIL
Jorden is pure evil.
@@thomasandrews7727Biden's evil 😂
uhhhhhhhh okay@@thomasandrews7727
I’ll raise you, politicians are generally evil
Jorden is fighting for your freedom!
They need to be held accountable for their Treasonous Acts=TREASON PERIOD!!!
Yes, with high monetary penalties and prison time. And I question whether the LGBT is doing the same thing. Why would they need a federal grant, this is a wealthy community organization.
We need to get the neomarxists out of our government and institutions.
And mr. Connolly admits thinking Trump was going to cause trouble why didn’t they get the guard and extra police? Stupid.
I can't believe the lies that came out of her mouth about Trump. Unbelievable that these people think they can read minds
All they do is gaslight and distort. They have crossed the rubicon the way back is very treacherous and will require a very large majority of Americans to stand up to these marxists and fascists.
Why did they cut him off ?
Well the one thing I got out of it is that the Democrats can't stop talking about Trump that's all they got ...❤❤❤❤
Which makes me want to vote for him !
Wait, did they not talk about Trump the whole time? All I heard was Trump for over an hour...
He lives rent-free in their heads, probably forever 😄
trump is the only person to admit he would weaponize the government. your suggestion that he not be mentioned is beyond absurd.
you admit your ignorance if that is all you got out of this. did you get the part that only 13% of the requests were even removed? not very 'Coercive' IS IT?
This is an evil person. What's worse, is that she thinks she's the good guy.
If MS.Troy has any real responsibility for National Security, this country is in serious trouble.
if you doesn't like trump then why did she work for him?
Great job Matt Taibi Michael Shellenburger and the Gentle Lady from Canada thank you for sharing facts !!!!!!!!🎉🎉🎉❤❤❤ thank you for leaving emotional propaganda out of the serious matter thank you for standing for the free people of the 🌎
Why is Dr. Shiva Ayyadurai not at this hearing as a witness? He's uncovered the government and NGO "private public partnerships" that made this weaponization possible!
Amen. And I was actually happy the republicans took a while. They weren’t spending money. I did doubt McCarthy and told my senator and legislator the same thing. And I was right he buckled to another wasteful omnibus and according to swallwell he shook hands on it.
The Dems are just hilarious at this point... they have their scripts and they are sticking to them.
their view is clear, they think they are justified in censorship because trump bad.
They really can't help themselves, can they? No matter what the actual topic is, they will find a way to launch into a diatribe about DT within a few sentences. Every. Single. Time.
Way to go Jim !!!
For some reason I still find it shocking and appalling to see how enthusiastically Democrats have embraced their roles of defenders and champions of government censorship.
only when they are up for election
@@ericmccambly4404 And there are elections of different degrees and stations every year. What does that tell you?
As they sit there and play the victim by claiming that Trump is trying to get them as if they didn't commit any crimes
@@patriarchmikeHonest to God, that IS so true….They should fear God more also…
Love Donald trump. Love how he make all these immigrant politicians pissed too. Who do we want leading us? An American protecting us from the rest of the world. Or the rest of the world trying to get a majority to destroy us? That’s easy for me
Democrats describe exactly what they have been doing to Trump with every accusation they make against him, it's almost a confessional
Leninism 101.
This phenomena is well established. Read more here:
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Psychological_projection
"In its malignant forms, it is a defense mechanism in which the ego defends itself against disowned and highly negative parts of the self by denying their existence in themselves and attributing them to others"
name one thing
@@eniselmenic5056Hm, censoring opposing views, jailing their opponents, FACISM to name a few
@eniselmenic5056 using the federal government to go after political opponents, example Trump. They said Trump was going after the Constitution even though the Democrats are constantly going after 1and 2 of the Constitution. They said Trump was getting money from Russia, China and a guid pro quo in Ukraine when it was Biden in all three. What is that five examples and I can go on.
Boy did she practice her speech these people are crazy always blaming Trump that's okay at the end of their game I'm going to get kicked on the bus too thank you Jim Jordan we love you and support you❤
This is important. Thank you Forbes!
"Peaceful BLM protests." How can she blatantly lie about that.
And every Western country should have that same travel ban for the safety of our own people.
BLM Protests where people were actually killed, properties burned and Federal building vandalized..... but they were peaceful...... LoL
98% of her whole rant was lies
democrats and their allies live in a delusional world, while simultaneously, they accuse republicans of delusionality.
Can anyone give me the dates of all the "Peaceful BLM protests?) Thinking I'll get Crickets.
@@joec-hd6dc👍👍
I'm sure you could find pretty peaceful times inside the mansions they bought...
I dislike Trump. I never voted for him. I want him to win in 2024 specifically to cause as much psychic pain as possibly to his detractors for their shrill, aggressive, condescending, supercilious, intellectually dishonest harping about him before during and after his term. I'm sick of them.
yeah, hes probaly done some bad stuff. But everytime i hear these people speak... They do a terrible job at explaining it to me. The chick at the start talking about kids in cages again... ohh man. They condemn themselves
@@blueejustice9364 And they say it unironically, as they 'misplaced' 85,000 kids (most likely into the hands of traffickers). They can go to hell with their faux compassion.
@@blueejustice9364 Or the thing about "We made 14 million jobs" well, everyone knows that's simply false and has been debunked repeatedly..... But if you point that fact out, you get screamed at irrationally and called a MAGA trumptard etc. etc. I don't have any skin in the game but what they frequently claim is not true and if your argument was so great, why would you lead with something that was so patently false? You lead with your best argument, right?
I want him to win because he will give us back our god given freedoms, the freedoms of a democracy to choose what kind of car and food and stove and medicine etc we buy. He is non WEF non WHO non UN non CCP he is American all the way just all of us the majority who are being ignnored by the ones giving all our tax payer dollars to pay pensions in Ukraine. Trump will close our borders and send the border crashers back thus preserving benefits for Americans currently sleeping outside in winter in record nummbers.
@@blueejustice9364Obama started that and they know it
“He shoved children in cages” 😂😂😂😂😂 THAT WAS OBAMA AND JOE BIDEN.
It wasn't. Trump already pledged to bring back the "kids in cages" policy. Try not to give yourself whiplash trying to defend it.
@@user-gz1jk9tj6d you joined a month ago. What took you so long? 🤔😂😂😂
Pictures included Hilary with kids in cages as well. They take them down as fast as people put them up. But they still put them up God love 'em.
@@user-gz1jk9tj6dNo, he vowed to bring back “Remain in Mexico”. That policy didn’t put people in cages, it kept illegal immigrants in Mexico. If Mexico put them in cages, that’s on them, not Trump. Obama and Biden are the ones that put kids in cages *here* in the US.
Bull crap!
Lol. Majorie Taylor Green is hilarious. She's the one you can hear yelling. And justice for all❤
"The other guys are threatening to do exactly what we are doing right now. Be afraid." - Plaskett
They are so afraid of Trump, it's hilarious.
Ps... President's get to choose their cabinet, period. It's not in their interest to choose incompetence (although it happens alot) if they want to be effective and leave any meaningful legacy.
Notice the witness who spoke about Trump and censorship from the right had no specifics and spoke in generalities. The others spoke about specific cases of people or organizations who were censored. They named names on who was doing the censoring. The woman who spoke about Trump only said "Trump said", nothing about actions.
Even further than that, they didn’t just name names when it came to who was *being* censored, but also named names regarding entities that were *doing* the censoring. And of course, all the “Trump said” nonsense was a bunch of out of context lies. She said he promised to weaponize government against his opponents, but if you actually watched the *ACTUAL* interview on Univision she’s referencing(not the heavily edited MSNBC and CNN version that twists his words to mean the *opposite* of what he *actually* said) then you’d hear him warning *AGAINST* weaponizing government, saying that history shows it never works, and talking about how the Democrats have weaponized the government against *him,* setting the precedent for someone else, using himself *as an example,* to do the same to them. The way they edited that interview, and thought no one would notice, is insane. And it’s even more insane that people in Congress are referencing that edited interview to try and distract from the actual topic of the hearing. The projection is *MIND BLOWING*
The ranking member woman just contradicted herself and attacked her own party and doesn’t realize it
I thought the exact same thing. I thought, "Wait, is she conceding some points?" And then she revealed that she was talking about the other side of the aisle! Oh, the f-ing hypocrisy.
Exactly
Obviously she didn't take any STEM courses...
The virgin island women? What did she say? Not sure why they have her as far I a I know she has no vote
I noticed that
Companies have no right to define the truth.
Omg! Above and beyond amazing effort by these journalists!
Forbes is Awesome!
Give me justice for the misinformation that resulted in the death of my nephew and my spouse having shingles, seizure and myocarditis after the jab. My AG is taking a good step towards justice. If Trump will do it as well, I will vote for him!
TDS is a wild condition
Crazy that TH-cam would cut Massie’s questioning in half when he goes after the Dem witness
yeah weird
Lol. Isn't it great that in real time youtube proves the two witnesses point on over reach and censorship of one political side.
That was actually the end of his questioning of that witness. He spent the rest of his time questioning Shellenberger.
TH-cam?
Or Forbes?
@utah_koidragon7117 And that would be where on the recording? Are you saying Forbes didn't edit damning information. They just edited other benign congressional testimony?
She is correct. She worried about America and people like protecting our quarters like we protect other countries borders for other countries and immigrants before American citizens in this country.
Gov. Should be audited. Every member of congress as well as given term limits…
How many Dems asked questions before the first comparison between Trump and Hitler? The very first one LOL!!! Our government is so pathetic...
I don't know how that party thinks they can continue accusing the latter with their supporter base's recent turn to anti-Jewish sentiments.
@@IronDruids Unfortunately because politics has become a religion for many and blind following is easier than exercising actual thought. It is sad how many idiots chanting "from the river to the sea" have no idea what it means when asked. We have way too many people who were not taught how to think, they find someone to follow and logic plays no part in their decision making.
Never mistake a Democrat for an independent thinker.
@@susanbell2753 Did TH-cam get rid of that first reply? I'm not seeing it. Basically they quoted the line about from one place to another as a cristism of it.
@@IronDruids Urhh… because Trump is Hitler /sarc
Seriously, this is Democrat logic. Half their base are 10/7 deniers and when you call them out on it their response is ‘Trump is Hitler’.
Why is the Govmt requesting info on EVERY person who shared or "liked" Trump on Social Media? How is THAT "Legal"?
Because a judge will let them do it. But it violates everyone's rights.
I want to know where I can report my support for Trump. I stand with those whose peacefully protested on January 6th to have their grievances heard.
It's the totalitarian way. It's history repeating.
@@SALTYCOMBATDIVER-ExInstructorPeacefully?? I'm sorry you are blind but you still have good hearing I hope.
that did not happen... it was related to a specific bit of disinformation not every person who liked trump
The fact that we have broken down mostly on tribalist teams about the concept of free speech...scares the hell out of me.
Someone should tell the ranking member, you can't investigate what hasn't happened yet!
I too miss strong men and women who stood for this country, AMERICA!
Federal government doesn't fear it's people, that needs to change.
Yes sir we need to bring LIBERTY back from the dead
Troy is proof “they’re not sending their best”
51:20 - Massie totally calls out the lies and suddenly the video skips to the next representative? WTH?
Don’t expect anything else. Aaaaand I’m back to recording C-span for the unedited version.
Pretty sure that was near the end of his statement. He was saying that if they can censor a member of Congress, they can censor anyone.
Just noticed that. But he was actually at the end of his time and they cut into the next Dem Reps time by roughly the same amount. May have just been a glitch and that does happen even live. But again, anything is friggin possible, lol. 🙄🙄
He still had 2 minutes left
@Far2hip That's a boldface lie. Please try again with something thats plausible.
Wtf. Why was the only pushback on a dem witness cut?
Censorship at work
YT who else.
So glad someone else caught that!
Is this the area of the 51st minute?
Sad that she can lie without skipping a beat. Well this administration does that shamelessly and people fall for it. 😢
no matter who is moving their lips here, it all becomes clearer and clearer what the heck is going on here. Everyone just keep talking. Good vs. Evil. God wins. The Constitution wins.
The incessant obsession of one man that was in the game for a tiny blip in time is astounding and it shows how corrupt they all really are
They are scared and know no truth.
They became what they said he was in the process.
@@PurcellAdam No, they always were, he just revealed it.
you talking about the "blip" that still holds the reigns of the republicans? the cult leader/rapist/criminal?
isn't it lovely? sad part, a great majority of them have been in Congress a lot longer then Trump was a President, yet Trump is the evil one? When you have been in politics for so long, you start to know the ins and outs of every corner so if someone threatens that, I can understand the threat he has over you. Democrats keeps showing the American people why Congressional Term Limits are heavily needed.
TH-cam literally cut off Thomas Massie’s testimony in this hearing. Are you paying attention yet?
The woman in the leather jacket is spouting 'Untruths'.
She is a LIAR!
I have to laugh every time Goldman thinks he has proven a point, but hasn’t proven anything. And Shellenberger just made Goldman look like an idiot.
Amen.
To be fair to Goldman...he made Shellenbergers ability to expose his idiocy easy...Goldman is an angry small man.
He really said “ Ah ha!”
That was his gotcha moment.
What a douche!
@@rustytrefry960I bet he got bullied in school
Goldman’s the only Democrat on that panel that seems to at least make an effort to refute relevant, on-topic claims. The rest come in like they got by in life reading less than Cliff’s Notes.
Totally not facist but tried to get me fired and destroy my family and lose my house if i didn't take an experimental medical procedure, which turned out to be illegal.
Whenever it's the Dems turn, it becomes so utterly confusing. When they combine just plain dishonesty with a fresh dose of failure to see how one is seen by others, and then superhuman projection, all while speaking of a future Trump..... I start getting dizzy.
IN light of what has been going on in Canada this is important to hear.
👍
Love this Canadian. Very well stated and i hope we can BOTH get our Countries BACK!!❤❤
She got totally red-pilled through covid. She was 100% pro lockdown, vax mandates, etc... but after she continued to catch covid after being vaxxed and boosted she started asking questions, she has become a real treasure.
@@kevinmccubbin2385still a long way to go from there. She has realized that the depth of corruption and tyranny is so deep that she can't actually see the end of it. The Canadians, just like my fellow European pusillanimous hypocrites, are in for a rude awakening when they finally realize that their rights are nothing but privileges granted by their governments and that they will be stripped for whatever reason they will concoct. And it will all be done for "safety" and "stability", which is to say, the oligarchs' "safety and stability"
@@kevinmccubbin2385 i did not know this... Thanks for adding context, snd increasing my alteady healthy respect tor her.
If you don't see that is Not left and right but GOOD and EVILE? Than you dont know what is happening in YOUR Country
Government way to big ! If there's no accountability for crooked politicians there needs to be a dramatic decline in size .
Why was Mr. Massie’s further questioning cut?
I was wondering the same thing! He's being censored again
God bless Matt Taibi!!
If the ranking member thinks this committee is off target, perhaps she should move on to a committee that would better suit her convictions.
Exactly, but first of all I don't know why the hell is she even there, Trinidad and Tobago is not a State, is a US territory like us Puerto Rico, where we don't have voice or vote in Congress or in the Senate. Meaning We the US Citizens did not elect Plasket to that position in the house so why the fk is she there is questionable.
i cant stand her
51:51 My man from KY got CUT OFF while he was speaking the TRUTH about his real, verified account on Twitter being censored by gov-funded 3rd party agencies.
Noticed that, do you know where I can watch the full and unedited version of this not put out by the scumbags at Forbes?
who else was shocked when they seen congress do the pledge of allegiance??
Why does this woman even have a seat on any committee?
Most "open and transparent governments ever". 😅
You can’t argue that censorship was “up to the social media companies” when those exact same companies are sending emails confirming that they were coerced into censoring posts that didn’t violate their terms of service because it was suggested to them that, if they did not engage in the requested censorship, their social media company could lose their Section 230 protections.
People like Mrs Troy need not be a part of our society.
Denying the existence of evidence that single handedly dismantles their narratives seems to be a particular talent among establishment hacks, especially the Left.
If she’s going to say, all of that, she should have brought proof. As in video, and I mean full video or audio! A lot of people are afraid for their futures and it has to do with this administration not the last one.
Taibbi and Shellenberger are heroes IMHO.
The TDS folks say this isn’t happening, while right here, right now, they censored Rep. Massie’s inquiry.
You can’t make this shit up.
Wow!
We the people go to take to court all the traitors.
The ranking woman that said”peaceful BLM protests”
Well just eliminate anything she said as valid .
Salute and respect to you Rupa Subramanya. What a powerful statement. Greetings and kudos to Matt Taibbi and Mr Schellenberger.
As Elon Musk said - reality of good vs perception of good.
Many in that room - are evil cloaked in the perception of good. You know who and what you are.
What a lot of ridiculous, off-topic questions by the Democrats. And a lot of over-the-top congratulations to their minions.
IT shows it was NOT a theory. they did those things.
Yes, the only brave one that was testifying was the woman from the US. Lol
Plaskett is such a disgrace on so many levels!
This woman’s remarks are unfounded
The plot that's emerged here is very straightforward: It's well-informed, evidence-driven people of conscience, striving in a non-partisan way to awaken government officials to their constitutional responsibilities, vs. useful idiots who construe their ethical and intellectual responsibilities to begin and end with attacking Trump, no matter how irrelevantly.
This is a more even contest than one might ideally like to suppose. As Roland Barthes once said, "Stupidity fascinates me. Nothing triumphs over it."
That's an awesome quote, thanks!
Well said and an excellent summation.
Why is she talking about things that aren't germane to the agenda for this committee? If she was a republican she would have been shut down.
And Ms Plasket says all this with a straight face. OMG. 🤡🤪😦😵💫👺🤯🥱
Oh My... the pages of the DRAMA against US have turned.
All I know is Trumps policies greatly benefited me and my family! Biden and the Democrat policies have me living check to check and now working as many side jobs as I can just to make ends meet. FTDP!
The country was better off by Pretty much every metric. Thats why they have to criminalize him at all costs. They know they can't beat him.
Maybe Trump will buy you a nice new shiny car and a brand new house too!
@@bethpent8851 Thank you. I collect non sequiturs
@@bethpent8851Maybe Biden will buy you a slab of bacon and a half a tank of gas.
@@bethpent8851Don't need anyone to buy us anything, just give us a good economy and we'll buy what we want. Trump showed us how that works. 😊
This hearing is supposed to be about federal government and sensor-ship NOT about Trump. CHAIRMAN JORDAN NEEDS to GET THIS DOG and PONY SHOW BACK ON
TRACK ! What a JOKE!!!
One of the Democrat goals is to make EVERYTHING be about Trump, even when that is far from being the situation.
It's not wats in your words,but wats in ur heart.
Which is going to be thrown out, and we saw that the government it self was letting the people in the capital.
It's the land of the free, not the land of the censored.
What happens to this woman for lying in each hearing and rehearing! Her lies are exhausting and exhausted 😞
'As a Canadian' 🇨🇦 Im very proud of Rupa S, who spoke so eloquently on behalf of freedom of speech and rights of citizens. We all !, North and South of the border, need to HEED THE WARNINGS of these truth tellers❤
Americans have lost the democratic party, their representatives are nuts!
I love Rupa.. one of the few honest Canadians that my country can trust!!
Agreed. She's one of my few go-to journos for Canadian news. Integrity is rare these days. She's honest and tough.
I don't believe she is Canadian and there is no evidence that she holds Canadian citizenship. She sure does seem to have a hate on for the PM
Miss Troy is the representation of our Federal GOVERNMENT…GOD HELP US. So scary!
Witness Olivia Troye displays extreme anti-Trump bias and extreme animosity towards the Trump platform. Was she let go and therefore harbored grievances or simply very politically biased beyond belief? Was she coached before this examination? She keeps going off the core topic to bring it around to a personal matter about Trump instead of the purpose of the topic.
She stated someone in Trump’s cabinet was suing her.
@@walkinaxylSO?!
What has any of that personal baggage got to do with the core topic of the discussion, and how does it excuse such misdirection of the discussion to become one of a personal bias issue?
Coached so poorly that when she accused President Trump of being like Hitler, she was immediately corrected to say Goebbels. Whoops, she wasn’t paying attention that day in training.
Is she talking about the separation of children in ages under Barack Obama?
Where does the money Come From? They are currently attacking my speech right Now! Thanks Obooboo
Trump has the right to campaign on whatever platform he wishes and most Americans support that platform.
Have always heard how beauty is only skin deep, but as for that Wasserman/Shultz creature, the opposite goes all the way to the bone!
Love the Pledge.
The past 5 years has made even this modest challenge to authoritarianism and total denial of reality and evidence, so sweet that I'm glued to my seat
They could have a murder on camera with 50k witnesses and they wouldnt do shit about but talk.
It's very simple..if your not here legally, or are born here to people who are not here legally, you are NOT WELCOME! If your not here legally, you have NO rights!!!
Yes exactly they talk about immigrants like they're all legal
The chatty chick that doesn't even have a vote. 😂
It disgust me to hear and see the heir to a fortune in a position of public service as if he has any understanding of how the majority of the population lives.
