Larry David has no time for these fools.
Sanders was the piece de resistance!!
"I am sick and tired of this nonsense!"
😂
😅😂😅😂😅😂
Oooh that's cold 😂
A perfect example of why Bernie is a great leader and civil servant. Class and dignity and respect for the position. Not many like him. Agree with him or not he is a man of integrity.
Look at the glee in the eyes of the guy over the shoulder of O’Brian. He wasn’t thinking he was going to enjoy this hearing so much.
Thank you for reminding me to look at the audience. All of their reactions are great.
No he was thinking that he hadn't realized 0:02 we had such brain dead morons in our Senate!
Fkcing brilliant, well spotted lol
Muscle-Bound Body Proud Idiots with reading ages of 08 In-Charge of entire States in the U.S......A total Clown Show! Like Trump!

Just can't take them seriously anymore....
😂😂😂😂
Dr. Strangelove: "Gentlemen, gentlemen!! ! You can't fight here... this is the War Room."
😂😂😂 very fitting callback
Pathetic behavior from a US Senator. I'm a lifelong Republican by the way.
He's also a coward. I offered to fight him and he declined.
markwayne inherited his wealth. Became CEO of his daddy's company after senior got sick when junior was 20 years old.
And now he’s an insider trader in DC. How about that after years of mullin plumbing dumping raw sewage into creeks here in Oklahoma?
Maybe he could pay back some of that ppp loan that he voted for forgiveness for himself since he sold his business and most likely made plenty of money from the sale. He'd probably rather let the tax payers foot the bill.
That senator is very easily triggered.
he so pathetic; type of person that holds on to every possible internet comment directed at them. He talks about keyboard warriors so much, because he’s projecting his sad existence
Shows weakness honestly.
Roid rage.
@@superbwater78 For sure. A lack of basic decorum, too.
@@superbwater78lmao he’s a trained fighter. Do yo homework
Thank you, once again, for being a voice of reason.
You may disagree with Sanders on many things, but no one can question his integrity and how consistent he has been for decades.
Boooo. Let them fight.
He handled this situation quite well as absurd as it was

@@ruthlewis8097 "lakefront Mansion" in the middle of nowhere for less money then my studio condo. Stop being a twerp and trying to make it seem like he is corrupt by purposely omitting information to push an agenda.
If you ever wondered what Bernie Sanders would be like as a 3rd grade teacher, here it is!
Senator Mullin's very deep in his feelings 🤣
What a child
I'm from Oklahoma and the senator is an embarrassment he should resign
Maybe people should vote better.. Won't happen though
Nah, he's based.

@@-Nyght-Burner- Okay? Why do I care about his net worth?
And I thought I had it bad because Tommy Tuberville is my senator. Shameful behavior.
Mullin challenges the guy to a fight in the middle of a crowded Senate Hearing room? That’s poser stuff, any grown man should recognize that.
Simp
Keep voting Biden!
Might just be me, but taking on a Teamster boss named O’Brien sounds like a bad plan.
@@japark85Sen Mullin is literally a MMA fighter.
@@vexxcon8125 And… ? He should know that fighting is only acceptable in the appropriate time and location. Threatening to fight someone while on the job will get you fired from most businesses and institutions. My guess is that he got too many concussions doing MMA to know the difference.
When you think you look cool, but everyone around you is cringing.
Everyone around them was cringing ... this is horrible ... I want to see it go down ... but it's horrible.
He ls letting you know point blank he does not support labor. You fill his pockets he will be 100% business. It is what it is.
And Tim Burchett accuses 'bully' Kevin McCarthy of elbowing him as tempers erupt in Congress, oh the horro.
Sanders , the voice of reason .
Sanders buckles like a belt.
@@fredgarvinMP You MAGAS simply don’t understand the concept of statesmanship. I doubt if you could even spell it .
@@dagnabbit6187ole Bernie is a threat to democracy. You know it.
Looks like the senator there is about to find out where Jimmy Hoffa is buried!
Go Bernie
Totally ridiculous. This is how our govt operates? Thank you Senator Sanders for stopping this pathetic display. This is how a US Senator conducts himself? Pretty thin skinned. What's next?....mud wrestling on the concourse?
Uhm, the other guy challenges him to a fight, threatens him... what would be a response that you wouldn't describe with negative qualifies?
Ignoring it. Like a responsible adult.
@@roglyo2 Ignore it.
It's basically Thursday Night Wrestling with the bravado and pathetic showmanship.
@@Freddiedk2010simp beta
This is embarrassing… when stuff like this happens those people should be removed from their seat. You clearly are not mature enough to be a senator.
Oklahoma where the BAG OF WIND comes sweeping down the plain.
a 45 year old insecure man loses emotional control and devolves into violence. hes lost his composure on the job twice already, a McDonalds cashier woulve been fired for less.
I Love reading the comments from the people who do not grasp how foolish Mullens was for doing this.
And they say women are too "emotional" to lead 🙄
They are
Yea they are .
Bernie's decorum is the kind we need.
Tough guy Mullin 🙄 is going to need his MMA mixed martial arts skills when the 'BROTHERHOOD' pay him a visit. Additionally, threatening his use of skills on the public is illegal.
I didn't want Bernie as president, but I admired him in this situation. He is the adult in the room.
The Democrats colluded to make sure the Senator who wants billionaires and corporations to pay the same in taxes as small businesses and working class employees. They didnt want him either. You are the same
At no point in US history has a Jewish politician ever been in the right.
Mullins is such an embarrassment to my home state of Oklahoma. He is a bully and I do not like him. A few years back Mullins spoke to an elderly lady with his bully attitude at a townmeeting and I stopped liking him ever since.
SOUNDS LIKE U WONT VOTE FOR HIM AGAIN. NEITHE4 WILL I....1 & DONE
Great job Bernie!!!
Exactly correct on all counts.
And I’m a Republican (Never did like Trump though).
Do you think your better off now?
Trumps the best president you'll ever have
@@brandenantonino23Biden is the best president ever.

Mullin should be kicked out of Congress.
At the least the junior senator from Oklahoma, my home, should be censured by a vote of the US Senate.
SO LETS NOT VOTE FOR A 2ND TERM.
Definitely not our BEST & BRIGHTEST. How sad the United States 🇺🇸 has this level of people at the highest office. I feel like I’m back in 3rd grade. What a sad disgrace 💔
I never heard of this guy, and before I even watch the video or read the caption, i am more the one hundred percemt sure that he is a Republican.
He's also a former MMA fighter
@@KingC89🙄
Because all Democrats are soft?
@@fredgarvinMPBecause he has the mind of a child.
Because he’s not a coward and stands up to a bully?
As an Oklahoman I'm ashamed of Mullins, vote him out
Yea, Bernie! Thank u for trying to restore intelligence
Real men know that bluff and bluster are not manly attributes.
they have their uses. this was not one of them hahaha
Appallingly childish and unprofessional behavior by Senator Snowflake from Oklahoma. How embarrassing.
But he’s learned insider trading can make him more millions since he’s been in DC.
As if I needed another reason to support the unions. This so-called senator is a disgrace!
I freaking love Bernie!!! He's our President...well, should be...
I'm embarrassed for the State of Oklahoma.
I'm from Indiana, and *_I'm_* embarrassed. Petulant children with no emotional control have no business serving in the United States Senate. Senator Markwayne Mullins is an embarrassment to the entire country.
where can I find a link to the full hearing?
I kinda want to know what was actually discussed regarding working conditions in America.
A sitting US Senator...
SMDH
Until he stood up
Vote for clowns, get a circus
Mr sanders is the Clown
@@justme-ti1rh he's the adult in the room. Beating up people is the job of the executive branch, not the legislative.
@@T.efpunkt I can just see the guy who has lost countless flights with stairs getting in the ring.
Amen and the Republicans are only getting worse.
You are blind and seems to have no hearing. @@justme-ti1rh
That senator from ok is an insecure child.
You aren’t wrong but he’s becoming great at insider trading!
Mullin is a former cage fighter, so he's anything but insecure.
Mullin was a plumber, and a cage fighter. Don't think he's insecure
The GQP is STILL a raging dumpster fire. Sad.
@PeterGazinya-dv1xi Lame redhat, sad.
GQP?
They know this is a public hearing! What a fool. Senator Mullin is an embarrassment to Oklahoma and America.
Tough guy Mullin knew there was going to be no fight in that chamber. His tough guy act is ridiculous and beneath the office he holds. If his little fee-fees get hurt over what some witness said, he doesn't have the mentality or the intelligence to hold that office. Go back to plumbing, Jimmy Joe Bob.
Well said! Chaoticus, I couldn’t agree more. (I’m an OKIE too.)
Bernie is consistently the adult in the room.
Uncle Berine in the house to make sure the kids behave.
Trained MMA fighters can only fight when they or others are the victims of an attack or they are deemed to be in mortal danger.Trained martial artists are not allowed to participate in unsanctioned street fighting or even worse, participate in the attack of another member of the public.
This guy should be expelled from the US Senate immediately.
I agree, Mr sanders should
@@justme-ti1rhYou're crazy.
Bernie looks like the adult in the room.
Naw, he's just a drama queen like Lauren and MTG
We need *_legislators,_* not *_drama queens,_* @@mapleva. The only one in that room expressing a serious desire to do actual work on behalf of his constituents was Senator Sanders. All these strutting peacocks preening for the know-nothing populists got to go.
For insider trading.
Inch by inch towards Idiocracy.

@@tonyoda9939 YOU VOTED FOR HIM!!!
He doesn't seem like he's emotionally well enough to carry out his obligations.
I don't care if the other guy slept with your wife, as an elected official you don't offer to fight someone. This is all on public record at this point. If we wanted politicians to have physical fights, we'd adopt an MMA style of government.
Might be better off if we did
Biden challenged Trump to a fight a couple years back.
Yeah totally idiocracy
@noname-4u Now you know.
My mother always taught me that when someone was too ignorant to figure out a way to resolve an dispute, they resorted to physical fighting. Well, I think that describes the ignorance we have running our country.
Yeah. Your mom forgot to mention being provoked.
@@GirthyLee no, she covered name calling. That is what grade school children do, and those that respond have grade school mentality. If someone physically takes a swing at you, then you defend yourself. Responding to verbal "provoking" still comes down to being able to use your brain.
@@grannywarrior that was not name-calling, the other guy was literally bragging how he can and will beat the senator.
@@roglyo2 Sorry, I did not understand that the words were physically hurting him. There is an old adage "Sticks and Stones.." if someone can not intellectually cut someone to the knees with words, his vocabulary is lacking. What I do not understand is why we have devolved from a civilized nation to people who think that brute force and physical violence proves a single thing...other than who is stronger. I would rather be smarter. But it does sicken me that we are a laughing stock to the rest of the World when we used to be admired by other countries.
@@roglyo2he was only responding to the ignorance produced by said senator. Little markwayne mullin is the one who can’t let the comments go - pathetic human behavior
LOL LOL " hold me back hold me back " what immaturity coming from a senator. Grow up !
Ooooh he stood up. Somebody hold me back!!!😅 And so what if Starbucks goes on strike. Let em.
The joke is on us !!
Sad to see one of our US Senators from Oklahoma (who went from being a plumber to the US Senate) act in such an amateur way.
Long ago, I learned never to trust grown men with two first names (Billy Bob, Bobby Ray, etc.), much less when they are combined into one word.
gawd , bernie for the win for enlightened civic govt. i am proud to support him. the reason that the gop senator said now is the place and time ( even tho it obviously wasnt) is because as a modern republican , theatrics and grandstanding are paramount to real communication and dialogue.. if a fight between these two breaks out and nobody saw it, did it really happen? Nein, says the modern republican. Turn the cams on and let 'em rip. ACTION!
he's a fraud. lied when Tulsi was still in the race and said that his friend Joe and him were the only two left. he is controlled opposition for the dem elite
He's an MMA fighter with 5 victorys in UFC. Of course, he frightens you.
@@steveo1413you think the Teamsters leader was scared? 😂🤣
Doesn't the Sargeant-at-Arms get involved in a situation like this?
I think that's for the House, not the Senate - as it should be the more dignified branch.
Bernie doesn't have to take off a ring or those warm knit gloves to prove his manhood or leadership
My money is on the Irish Teamsters boss from Boston.
Exactly 💯
Reminds me the fight I had in my childhood at a kiddos playground 😂😂😂😂😂
So you've never been in a fight is what you are saying
MAGA. 😂
So basically you are a Millennial 🤣🤣. GenXers grew up fighting all over the USA.
Mullin is a child and suffers from little man complex.
Markwayne is envious of anyone who did well in school and carries a chip on his shoulder everywhere he goes.
@@johnswof you are just as much a little boy if you think hard working wage earner are not hard workers and if you think Mullin the coward is a leader, little boy
I love how tough guys depend on others to break up the fight. I guess the Senator didn't have the guts to do it in the parking lot where blows could have actually been exchanged.
Who said the bald headed, big mouth teamster didn't scurry out of the Congress like a scared rat?
@maxpower1492 No way!
Exactly 😂😂
@maxpower1492 I wholeheartedly believe that this United States senator would end up doing the state room temperature challenge if he was to try and attack a union leader.
Them boys are strapped.
@@yurikalashnikov5815You saw that he is from Oklahoma?
He is well known as a CCW holder, and who doesn't know an Oklahoma Irishman likes to fight like Rip Wheeler...💪🍿🫠
He stands up, ready to "fight"..and then sits down when an 80yr old man, tells him to..what a phoney! 😒
I'm not Republican but even I know he only listened to Bernie out of respect and understanding. The guy is not a coward and I'm pretty sure if the two combatants here were to fight. Mullin would win because he has actually professional combat experience. Even if it is against nobodies. He's only in his 40s and is against a regular guy that seems to be in worse shape than him.
The difference: Mullin doesn't have the force of the Brotherhood behind him. You challenge us one, you challenge us ALL! **LOCAL 386!!!**
Get to work.
@@u2mister17 Never stopped.
THIS MAN IS CROOKED REPUBLICAN
Wow the decorum in the Senate has become a joke. His personal opinion of you shouldn’t interfere with your job it’s called compartmentalization or is that too big a word for him? He needs to resign who challenges someone to a fight during a hearing on Economic issues that are far more important. Bernie coming in clutch it’s sad our politics have come to these d swinging matches.
Well ain't that something. I would think at his age that he would have came to terms with his little PP. Maybe he should get a corvette?
Apparently, a lot of MAGAs have “small hands.”
Bernie’s like EVERYBODY SHUT UP
Mullin has all the vibes of a guy at a bar wanting to pick a fight knowing very well his buddies with "hold" him back. What a poser (and what a legend Bernie is).
Not democratic but i love how bernie handled this situation
It's like a 3rd grader challenging someone in front of the teacher, knowing that the fight won't happen. If he was real, he would have done it in the parking lot with a back hand challenge slap.
3:05 at the bike rack buddy.
Mullin has a 5-0 profession MMA record and is in the Oklahoma wrestling hall of fame. I think he is real 😂
@jacobharris405 I didn't say he couldn't. I said he *wouldn't*
The teamsters guy looks one chicken nugget from a heart attack
His father named him Markwayne? Really?
Really. JimBob, BillyJoe and Elmer was already taken from other member of the family stem.
Lol, he's from OK, but I can't help saying that name in the most egregious deep South accent.
When Uncle Bernie is babysitting the kids 😂
Mullin not only lowered himself, but he lowered the dignity of his office. This is what we expect to see on WWE, not the United States Senate. We have officially transitioned from a Constitutional Republic into an Idiocracy.
Disagree. We need more action instead of empty platitudes from corrupt officials. Like the typical democrat he ran his mouth thought it wouldn't bite him and it did. Just like were seeing everywhere in the country right now.
@caseywest9668 so you think instead of talking and listening we should punch each other?
@@caseywest9668 This transcends politics. What Mullin did was utterly childish. (And if you think that this is appropriate behavior for a United States Senator to display during a Senate hearing then I'm sorry for you.)
@@dbyrneishit would make Cspan more popular I think
Oklahoma is not known for getting the best people to run the state.
Thank You Bernie
What would have made this even more ridiculous is if everyone in the chamber started chanting “JERRY JERRY JERRY” like it’s the The Jerry Springer Show! 😂😂😂😂😂
My money is on the teamster fella from Boston.
I support this fight. Men should be held accountable for their keyboard warrior behavior.
You want grown men to punch eachother during a senate hearing over mean tweets?
That's what comes out Oklahoma lol
Now children, you can settle your differences on the playground after class. Right now there's work to do.
Thanks for making OKLAHOMA look like a bunch of yahoos!!!!
SMH!!!
This real patriotism right here. Standing on business, not rejecting a challenge, great merit for a senator of the strongest country
You get what you deserve. We never deserved Bernie. 😭
To quote the lion from The wizard of Oz.
Put them up. Put them up
Conflict should be resolved peacefully.
_"I accepted your challenge."_
Jeez, Senator. Do not mess with The Teamsters.
Honestly, I love this. People feel way to comfortable running their mouth on social media but always play the victim and “bigger person” called out. No if you wanna say something say it but when you see me, dont wimp out.
Senate Code of Ethics? We don't need no stinking code! Thankfully, there was an adult present . . . the senator from Vermont, of course.
Honestly we’ve gone so far with this passive aggressive society where there is no consequences for your words maybe it’s time to go back to backing your words up
I’m in favor of that
you go Bernie!
This is “Nobody Speak” by Run the Jewels/Dj shadow brought to life!!
Let's get it on!!!!
EMBARASSMENT!!!!
