Whenever Hawley questions someone, he will get to the heart of the issue. A great assett to the GOP.
One of the few senators that are actually conservative.
And then what happens? NOTHING. But you still love him, that’s important
@@DONTTREADONME66
You do understand that the Donkeys control the Senate, right? They control the power of congressional trial, and the GOP knows nobody on the Dems' side will ever get convicted because of it, especially when they have help from RINOs.
A great BShitter as well.
Run pretty well though.
@@ComradeGeneralSupreme What BS are you talking about? Hawley did not run away from the protesters in fear of his life. The video shown by the J6 committee only shows Hawley running. The full ccv footage as shown on Tucker Carlson shows that Hawley was the last person in a long line of people who were being lead by security staff to another area of the building.
Sick of all these unqualified appointees installed to govern us.
The criminals are the bosses. Crime paids.
Nothing but blah, blah,blah, blah, and then silence ……??
Well you voted for the representatives who picked them 😂
Called packing the courts, go look into who all got in and where.
is he too black for you? How is he unqualified?
Yes and most people in rural communities DO NOT want everything to be online. They want to keep their post offices, their stores, and other businesses to be open and not all online!
And more elected officials should use their platforms to echo your comment.
Yes, because we don't all have service !!
Then be angry with Trump’s appointee, Louis DeJoy, who heads up the postal service. Racism is different than affirmative action.
BS, Hawley was quick to approve Barrett, despite the fact that she said she would follow precedent law. Hawley is a traitor to the United States.
I’m from UK, and this senator sounds like the real deal. 👍
He doesn't believe in the law that he'll think about it but he's a judge good luck to anybody comes across this judge here❤
He literally said he'll uphold the law
What ever happened to MLK stating that we all need to be treated based on the content of person character and not the color of their skin / race
it turns out that the content of the character was in large part not "all that"
No money to be had there, as all the ambulances are presently being chased.
AMEN.
The New Progressives believe that MLK was a black hating uncle tom, but they'll never state that for the record
Unfortunately MLK would be called the black face of white supremacy nowadays
Thank you for your service Senator Hawley!
Every single time I hear “If I am confirmed as a…” I recoil a little. Are these people able to think as individuals?
“So, after the Supreme Court said racism is bad, your alma mater said racism is good: is that your opinion?”
“Well, if I am confirmed as a judge, I will say racism is bad.”
"I will fully, faithfully, and fairly apply Supreme Court precedent in any case that may come before me if I'm so lucky to be confirmed." It's like they all have the same coach with the same script.
@@mikerotcherson Be careful, you’re making way to much sense.
He answers the questions appropriately for a judicial candidate - The legal system is highly complicated in an attempt to be fair. That's the theory, we are not perfect beings. Judges and potential judges are not legislators, executives, or agency heads. They are supposed to be able to apply the law to the facts of a case, personal opinion is not to be considered. If they give personal opinions then they may be disqualified as a judge in a similar issue. Questions about their actual legal knowledge and experience is fair - Hawley and all the other lawyer legislators know this, very well, but they put on a partisan points show, as they all do from both parties. It's a dishonest portrayal to the public. But, that's kind of what federal level politicians do. And they approve more printed currency, tons of it.
@@rageoidwhat? he dodges straightforward questions with generic BS . just like every other far left candidate Biden tried to put through. Asking what they’ve said and the far left organizations they work for and what they stand for isn’t “personal”Black dude is full of it if you can’t see that your blind .
@@mikerotchersonthey do.
All of these candidates never follow through on anything the say in these hearings
Hilarious! And true! Great comment. Love it!
I would undermine any law I disagree with at every opportunity. Would be the only honest answer from any of these "nominees".
WTF that's literally the opposite of what he said. Why would you assume that about this guy? You know him personally or something?
@@dandrechesterfield5411 Nah, I don't know him personally. But there is a pattern of just about every nominee of the Biden administration. All of them are "progressive", which is a simple way of saying, they are activists. And activists do exactly as I described at every opportunity, if they don't "agree" or like a law. If you watch enough of these, you will see how they are all prepped to essentially say nothing about what they actually believe. We will, at some point, need to purge all of the activism from our system. People are growing very tired of it and hard times are coming, brought to us by weak minds.
@@historia7194you misunderstood his comment. He’s saying that’s basically what this guy should be saying. Not what he would do
At one point I could get a letter or package within 4 days anywhere in the US, now it routinely takes a week or more for a letter to leave my state line.
The United States Postal Service stole my joint tax return from me to file with the department of Treasury and the bureau of the fiscal services and nobody will give it back I hate the United States Post Office I even have A po box how scandalous are they?
Go into one and you'll see why affirmative action and inclusion at its worst
Well I guess you gotta get a dove and start training it. Good luck 🤞
Don't forget they lose billions of dollars per year now for decades.
@@jc4388 That is BS. They haven’t lost a billion dollars in any single year. Damn lie.
Why do we even have these pony shows to ask nominees questions if they never have to answer questions?
Part of the political dog and pony show, nothing more. These clowns are already confirmed by both parties before these hearings are ever held.
Josh Hawley will make a great President soon.
Pretty sure he will run in 2028.
he will not get that cause he is a little trump
Hope not. The dude is a snake and throws people under the bus to get what he wants. Hes also a privlidged elite who pretends to be your "every man"
Sen. Hawley is one of the best people in office we have. If he would run for President, i as well as many would vote for him. He needs to run in the future.
Same!!!!
How come these people never remember what they say? Isn’t that amazing?
They deny what they said because they know it looks bad .
He clearly said it was his job to uphold the law and he did not have a hand in writing the piece Hawley was referring to. You are grasping for ways to criticize the man. Why ?
@@williamclayton7343 becaise guilty is as guilty does.
Really..... it's called "lying"
@@beeell8017 guilty how? Hawley never even asked if he said it because he didn't. He asked if he stood by a message made by an organization he's a part of and he said basically it doesn't matter because I will uphold the law. That's exactly what you want your judge to say.
This is a nominee for a judge?😢😢😢
Bidama is packing the legal system with questionable puppets.
Not to worry. This is all disclosure. We are firmly in the middle of the disclosure phase. Then comes the real pain!
What's your problem with him? Even Hawley likes him. He said very straightforward that regardless of anything he would uphold the law.
@@dandrechesterfield5411 I guess based on m.e.j8847 comment, he is obviously unqualified. Look at him! SMH
@@alg190 he’s unqualified because of the way he looks? So bc he’s black? I don’t get it. Seems like a perfectly fine candidate to me
@@dandrechesterfield5411 I agree. I was responding to the appalling comment from m.e.j8847.
My Senator, will vote for him every time
Lucky!!!
I worked for Cox Communication. As is the norm, they acquired a very small cable/internet provider near apalachia? People literally had address like: behind the general store. When I called and asked them that meant, they said, that's how we do addresses here. There's no road, we say behind, above, to the right, to the left of the general store.
We couldn't get cable to some people and they had to do satellite. I think we had to be the provider of that, although they weren't on cable. They also said there was post office trouble. I wanted to ask cox to help the towns and pay for the post offices.
Not familiar, always a o’Biden nominee reply
Citizens know why president Trump' cut EPA IRS down to 32 percent just another appointed gov job c abused by power climate change corrupt as fauci science fraudulent with tax payers money
why do you say o'Biden? Because he's black? I don't get it
@@dandrechesterfield5411 Not referring to any racial aspect, but current biden appointees are a continuation of Obama’s policies.
If confirmed as a judge, I will convict anyone who mispronounces my name.
Did he say that 😮?
Josh Hawley is great. So much conviction. I want this man to be president someday
The fact he’s reading off a sheet the same response each time shows he didn’t care enough to remember his lines to lie better
Every response begins with "Senator, I can tell you that ." He could just say , without telling us that he can tell us.
Yeah give the guy a break, he's nervous and young and never been on television literally getting a job interview in front of millions of people. His answers were perfectly fine. He literally said he'll uphold the law. End of story.
@@dandrechesterfield5411 he wasn’t nervous lmao don’t get into politics if the public scares you. He was lying, and don’t be a moron saying I’ll uphold the law doesn’t mean jack these days. The entire government swears to uphold the law, and prosecutors around the country prosecute based on political motives.
@@kamdaddypurp69 okay so basically nothing he could say would make you like him. Got it. So saying he’ll uphold the law you automatically assume he’s lying. You wouldn’t want him to say he won’t uphold the law so there’s literally no pleasing you. Go see a therapist.
Imagine caring so little you have read off your answer about your job…. Not specific numbers. Questions like is racism bad lol
I just love him.
I love senators who fight for their own local interests for the community they serve.
Hawley is a beast. He truly represents the views and agenda of real American citizens.
Why is this man not a candidate for president? Have you ever seen a more competent and reasonable guy who could be president tomorrow?
I LIKE HIM BUT EVERY AMERICAN WHO WANTS TO KEEP THIS COUNTRY NEEDS TO VOTE FOR TRUMP!!!!!!!!!!PERIOD!!!!!!!!!!!
@@christineexum Trump2024/Vivek2028. Trump deserves it, after everything he’s sacrificed in the name of making America Great Again!
Certainly a winner of the 50 yard dash 😅!
Never offer congratulations in opening statement To your opponent. That's just stupid Unless you're on their side?
In my eyes mr Hawley is a REAL MODEL to follow
a role model for cowards and liars
@@sheritacotten5293 how dare you call Mr. Hawley a democrat.
You could've followed him as he ran away from the mob he helped summon..
@@SmokinGofersyou know that was proven to be a lie! Why continue with your lies?
Hold up nomination
As Voltaire said, it's hard to free fools from the chains they revere.
I don't like the way he sidesteps the questions.
But he will be awarded the job anyway.
He literally said he would uphold the law regardless of his personal opinions. That's exactly what you should want from a judge.
Josh rocks!
This guy "wasn't familiar" with two questions the Senator asked him.
Hawley is a national treasure.
Give THAT JUDGE CREDIT as he knew EXACTLY what Hawley would be driving at and instead of the usual pausing, the murmuring, this Judge thought it the right thing to do to answer him PROMPTLY and with "
no games. what, ifs, and buts..Thus he put himself in the p[osition that if he was lying, thye RECORD WILL SHOW IT- The Judge "knows himself" and his core beliefs
I've seen a mobile VA put up in less than a week. They can do the same to a Post office.
Decline nomination
This guy sounds supremely confident. Just the kind of person I'd love to see making decisions on the Supreme Court! .... Not
He literally said he would uphold the law regardless of his personal opinions. That's exactly what you should want from a judge.
@@dandrechesterfield5411But experience tells us that this isn't the way it works. In the hearings they'll always say "I'll uphold the law. I'm completely unbiased".
Then Hawley or someone else will dig up a pro-Antifa article the nominee wrote, saying how despicable Republicans are and that they should all be killed. So it's more than questionable that these nominees will follow the law without any bias.
Never understand why anyone would say "110%".....or any other figure other than 100% if they mean the maximum.
being accepted into ANY SCHOOL beyond high school should BASED ON GRADES ONLY!!!!!!
Excellent!
I just liov this man. He's my hero. Bloody wish he was in my country.. ❤😊❤
Of course, mail will get picked up and distributed even if rural POs close.
Funny how they want to rant about Americas racist history. While serving the party that is solely responsible for Americas racist history.
none of them should be approved!!!!!
Move a US mail semi truck out and have the mail delivered there until the post office is repaired and open.
Hawley: great questions.
First nominee: So great to hear someone who is positive, even though they are from different parties. His concern comes through beautifully.
Second nominee: the microphone on/off switch is supposed to be used before and after answering questioning. Not before and after QUESTIONS. I don’t recall other nominees doing that. Looks and sounds like he has something to hide.
So the second nominee has never heard any of these statements about the law. That’s interesting, because I have heard most of them, and I’m not a federal appointee or a lawyer. I think that’s why he keeps turning the microphone off between questions. Of course, he’s familiar with those statements. He just doesn’t want to say anything from a Leftist point of view that will get him exposed.
He should run for president, he is all about facts and not afraid to ask the hard questions
Founding fathers were extremely clear on this.. and this is a great example of why.
you can't Josh the Hawley
No more appointees
Affirmation action on display.
They always have to deny.
Americans, put you Post Offices in private stores. No need for government buildings.
Nearly a decade after the Napa Post office was damaged during the earthquake, zero rebuilding has occurred.
I'm sitting next to my father and our plane leaves in 6 hours. If the prosecutor isn't fired, you aren't getting the billion dollars. Well sOb
The postal service would rather spend money on electric vehicles which will not work in the winter months. That little town needs its post office!!!
Absolutely. It makes me so sad when I see these little town of Ks. Just dry up. I love spending a weekend driving around the country looking in these little towns❤❤
Stay out of the Texas Panhandle, or you could be admiring them through bars. Come on vacation and leave on probation!
You can't have 110% 1:16 ... it's a stupid comment which should disqualify the guy immediately.
i never said I buying Greenbelt
Come on JOSH. I agree with you almost all of the time, but to follow your logic, my grandmother, once was the postmistress of a small rural community in Idaho call Sunnydell. Following your logic that post office should be rebuilt.
SO, WHY ARE YOU STILL EMPLOYED WITH THIS ORGANIZATION??
❤gladness of this questioning
1:22
I HAVE MADE STATEMENTS YES BUT I DONT RECALL ANY OF THEM...
How about lengthening the individual interview/testimony time by another 2 minutes for these highly important government positions? Each time I hear a person stall and run the clock down by blathering about ‘thank you senator and I would like to give a shout out, etc’ it makes me smh.
Think for that yes I'm need communicate to word
The postal service is horrible
Love you Josh
There is no way that this guy is going to follow any precedent.
He cant even operate his microphone properly let alone be a judicial nominee . Just anther gas lighting activist!
Equity = racial measurement of wealth.
Black dude is lying through his teeth
Imagine that!
He's lying how? How do you know he's lying? He literally said he would uphold the law regardless of his personal opinions. That's exactly what you should want from a judge.
What did he lie about?
Senator Hawley is the Captain America of all US politician
Kind of looks like him too lol 😂
@@Heavyisthecrown I stg...the first time I ever saw him I immediately made that comparison.
❤why isn't it more better to say, "no matter if i become more than i am now or not ,..... i am and will probably always be a person of the opinion.......blah blah blah
If confirmed, he''ll do whatever he can to go against what he stand and militate for?
How will that exactly work?
If Hawley grills you you need not be in the job your trying to get ! Most to all are no were to his Integrity and intelligence.
Vociferously is a nice word. Sen. Hawley is a good man
all of the shit they leave in my box! are you kidding? i pray they close my post office
The first guy seemed like a decent guy.....he won't be chosen.
That’s what they all say…
Arrest them all for treason and crimes against humanity
🙏🤗🍺cheers
“Grills”?? 👀🥴🤦♂️
GOD BLESS
TRUTH SPEAKER'S GOD BLESS JOSH HAWLEY
God Bless you, Senator Hawley. Keep the Faith! Hold the Line!
The only solid foundation for the nation to go forward is not racism or reverse racism, but equality. Simple but powerful
❤Senator Hawley💪🥰😍😍😍
I love senator Hawley,he should run for president. He would have my vote
Rebuild the Post Office. Necessity. Medications come in the Mail as well.❤ REBUILD IT. MAKE AMAZON PAY FOR USPS. KJ
Holy damn that was another successful grab of that moment that's perfect carry on mr Jones love you in Lincoln
Every liberal complains about equality, yet they cant stop talking about the past. Theres nothing you can do to change something that has already happened, so why waste time and resources just to complain? How about putting that energy into something that *CAN* make a difference, and something we do have some say in... the _future!_
You cant say you want equality while at the same time continue to talk about the inequalities of people from the past that nobody even knows!
#Hawley4President 💪
That dude is shifty and shady af. His eyes are all over the place.
Hawley didn't feel like going to war this time.
Extermination Order
The extermination order is the name commonly used to refer to an executive order signed on October 27, 1838, by Lilburn W. Boggs, the governor of Missouri during the Mormon-Missouri War of 1838. The order sought to put a quick end to the conflict by calling for the Mormons to be “exterminated or driven from the State if necessary.” Throughout 1838, anti-Mormon vigilantes had threatened and attacked Latter-day Saint settlers in Missouri. By October, civil authority in northwestern Missouri had broken down, and anti-Mormons expelled Church members from their homes. Appeals by the Saints for protection against mob attacks went largely unnoticed by local militias. Latter-day Saints took self-defense measures, and some struck back at suspected mob havens by burning dwellings and confiscating goods. When a state militia company collided with a Mormon rescue party at Crooked River, shots were fired and three Mormons and one non-Mormon were killed. The skirmish stirred the already excited local press into exaggerating Mormon violence. Moreover, the conflicts took place more than 100 miles away from the state capital, which hindered effective communication. Across the state, many believed that the Mormons were waging an offensive war. Governor Boggs, who concluded the Mormons had made “open and avowed defiance of the laws” and had “made war upon the people of this State,” issued the executive order authorizing state forces to suppress the supposed uprising. General Samuel D. Lucas, who was encamped with the state militia outside Church headquarters in Far West, received the order on October 30 and marched on the city. He demanded that all Latter-day Saints sign over their property as payment for non-Mormon losses and leave the state immediately. After arresting Joseph Smith, Lucas held a hasty court-martial and called for Joseph’s execution. Alexander Doniphan, the officer charged with carrying out the execution, believed the action was illegal and refused the order. For the most part, however, state militia members used the threat of force authorized by the order, resulting in the Saints migrating en masse to Illinois. Boggs’s intentions in issuing the executive order remain uncertain. Many have assumed he authorized genocide and have associated the order with the massacre of 17 Latter-day Saints at Hawn’s Mill three days after it was issued. But anti-Mormon vigilantes, not the state militia, carried out the massacre, and no evidence suggests the vigilantes were aware of the governor’s order. At the time, the meaning of the term extermination included the possibility of forced evacuation. For example, in the case of the forcible removal of American Indians, United States officials used the phrase exterminating war to describe the use of force to achieve either the Indians’ “total expulsion” or “total extinction.” Military leaders expected expulsion orders to be met with hostile resistance, meaning “extinction” was a possibility, though evacuation was the more likely outcome. Though public opinion remained divided, the expulsion order met with measurable criticism. A non-Mormon legislator wrote an editorial a month after the order was issued that condemned the use of the state militia against the Mormons as an infringement on religious and civil rights. Less than two months later, a member of the Missouri state legislature called the order unconstitutional and promised to challenge it “if he stood alone in the midst of ten thousand.” Communities in Illinois offered safe haven to refugee Latter-day Saints, expressing their objections to Missouri’s persecutions. The violence against the Saints gained national attention by late 1839, when Joseph Smith led a delegation to seek redress at the nation’s capital. During the century following the expulsion of the main body of the Saints, small numbers of Mormons lived in Missouri, apparently without conflict. Over time, the Church established branches and stakes throughout the state. In the late 20th century, more people began to recognize the immorality of state violence against minority groups. In 1976, Missouri governor Christopher S. Bond officially rescinded Boggs’s order, arguing that it “clearly contravened the rights to life, liberty, property and religious freedom” guaranteed by both the constitutions of the United States and the state of Missouri. On behalf of the citizens of Missouri, Bond expressed “deep regret for the injustice and undue suffering” the order had caused the Latter-day Saints.
Oh my. 😢
*TLDR*
I really like to know where these people are from ???? We don't even know if they have a true law degree.!!
Can someone tell me how I can apply for a job at the White House.? And then maybe someday I will be a judge 😂😂😂😂
What is the second man doing while being questioned? Is he on a computer/laptop? So annoying to watch him fidget and react with his odd facial gyrations.
YOU DIDN'T EXPLAIN WHY
Leave button alonel lol
Imagine that…a diversity nominee - BIG SURPRISE
Post office you say? How convenient to tornado it to smithereens! Not suspicious at all.😂
