Has anybody, other than me, noticed that nobody in the Biden administration can answer questions?
I know that's right!
Yes , Your right . I have never heard a straight true full answer from any [[ biden administration official ]] I hear Murkowski voted for this woman .
They all say, “Thank you, Senator, for that question.” And then proceed to not answer it.
@@denisceballos9745 They say that to waste time .
Unfortunately, all of these unqualified, untruthful appointed officials, will still get their lifetime pensions.
Who else has noticed that the directors of every single department of this administration doesn't have a clue or can answer a single question about what is going on in their departments? They are batting a total zero!
They can answer, but why rock the boat of the agendas they obscure.
Na, they're just 'doing their jobs' and 'following orders'. They are doing exactly what they're supposed to... Just happens that's not at all in favor of actual American citizens.
I wonder if that would have anything to do with the baffled president?
They are conditioned to not answer. The real question is who do they work for? It isn't America or Americans. This is a coup and these agencies have control over land, resources and who knows what else. Since they are not elected and they don't represent Americans, who has oversight over this group? When they decide that no one has access to any 'public land' that land becomes private....it's coming. When Governors of states are not in the loop regarding land management in their states you know there is a real huge problem.
That is exactly what Biden wants
Useless, worthless, waste of forced taxpayer dollars.
Absolutely correct
With all of these acronyms! All I understand is IOU.to the tax payer!
Like 500 billion to Ukraine
And oxygen
It's not cancelled, "it's delayed" due to a "collective decision about work load." She's pathetic.
You hold the purse strings to these three letter agencies, shut them down, or shut up! Enough with all the talk.
You realize that the Republicans are just blowing smoke, if they really cared, they would shut off the money.
Like all politicians, they're more concerned about getting reelected rather than doing anything productive.
🫵💪👍🤘🙌🫡😁😉
MAN! FEEL THE SAME 🤬ING WAY!!!
🇺🇸👈 ONLY one
If it were only that simple.
@@Rational_thinker_212 it really is that simple.
@@Rational_thinker_212 it is. Congress can stop funding everything with a simple vote in both houses.
"Our plates are full" this MONSTER responds TWICE. It's reminiscent of "I'll circle back . . . "
Disgusting.
Jail the lousy corrupt behavior
Tracy Stone-Manning as is usual cannot give a straight or in fact any answer. "Work load" the whole thing is being ignored by stone walling bureaucrats. Absolutely appalling.
Known tree spiker that they bring up, but do nothing about, and there IS PROOF. SHE should be in prison for murder
Ima thinkin' that "work load" in D.C. speak means golf course time and booze parties.
@@gusloader123 interesting; my toilet cleaning money....
and 20 years plus for another or several wrong doers.....[like roaches]......
b i d d i n g time 123 (despicable)
The correct word is "WON'T" -- NOT "can't."
These CRIMINAL activists steal our taxpayer-funded salaries and REFUSE to provide SERVICE (including straight answers) to WE the PEOPLE !!!!!
Now at least i know HER name. Now off to look her up....
Murkowski won't support Trump so we get Biden and all that he stands for. Senator, you brought this on yourself.
Amen!
RINO!!!
you reap what you sow
I believe Senator Murkowski voted to confirm Stone-Manning. Please correct me if I am mistaken.
Unfortunately, the senator got what she voted for.
Murkowski should have begun standing up to this crap years ago. Another RINO whose time has passed.
We tried to fire her the last election. Rank Choice Voting blew that for us.
@@wolfmantroy6601 Hey guys im still trying to learning my way around politics and i know Rhinos are Paid off, shill republicans, but i was wondering if you still would support someone like murkowski nowadays since she is going after people like stone-manning and seems to be fighting the good fight. or if you guys still consider them trash because of their past Rhino shenanigans. Thanks for your opinions gents
Apparently, Murkowski is a "politician first," which means "take care of myself first." How many years has she lived off the tax-payers in Alaska? What bills has she written or voted for that would benefit the people she "represents?" If Murkowski wants to remain on the government gravy train, she's got to perform for the People....not the Democrats....not Biden....not Yourself....for the People and for America!
It’s our own RINO queen. Alaska is a purple state thanks to the unconstitutional RCV.
Dino = democrat rhino
Stone-Manning just a pure partizan bureaucrat, oozing stone-cold arrogance
How is it that these unelected bureaucrats seem to have more power than our elected Senators and Representatives? We need to overhaul this process in all of the government agencies. We, the people are not being represented when those we elected have no power to stop these lawless agencies from usurping the will of the people...
Put fluoride in water and teach nonsense in school, has too many people thinking they’re smart.
Because NO politician actually holds ANY power whatsoever. It’s these losers who do.
That’s why we have the problems we do.
There are no “sides” in DC…just the ILLUSION of sides.
Not long ago our representatives knew not to give bureaucrats the ability to make decisions not given by Congress, but for some dumb elected officials they decided that bureaucrats knew more and would be better at making those decisions without consent from We the People. Stop voting with your emotions and if you can't please don't vote. Emotional people change their minds more than you change your underwear.
The NGO’s (Non Gov Organizations) have put these ppl in their jobs! And told them what & how to do the job the way they want it done! Lots of Iranians own these NGO’s
Yes! Its called draining tbe swamp.
EPA is not the Law of our Land, The Constitution is!
EPA will soon be gone in 2025, we are bankrupt!
Fire her now!!!!!!
I have an idea - stop funding them. You keep failing to use the only apparent power you have.
"Excuse me while I think up a lie."
I'm so sick of hearing these elected officials complaining about gov agencies ignoring the law and making their own laws as they go.
The house and senate passed laws that gave these agencies this power. Then they put 80% of government agencies into the permanent budget. This gives them a 7% increase in spending every year regardless of what congress does.
So Congress passed laws that made Congress powerless over the vast majority of government. So stop complaining and fix the problem you created.
They ALWAYS cave when it comes to budgets/shutdowns. They should have held to their shutdowns decades ago, now here we are. GOP Inc is the worst.
@jamesmcd71 your answer is spot on. I don't want to disrespect the time and intelligent comment...but writing it here is like writing on bathroom stall walls. The only way to change things is to vote and put in all your comments everywhere to remind people to vote and do the same.
@@aregularguy1957-vu5lk Do you honestly think your vote actually counts? It hasn't counted in a long time in California, which is how we have our current Gov and most of the people who currently hold power in our state. Worked so well, they took it national a couple of years ago.
When they have total control both houses of congress and president and won’t do anything when they could
@@gregz4249 unfortunately you're probably right. They'll just pass some tax cuts and nothing else.
Murkowski the RINO is now upset. Get rid of Murkowski.
We tried. Rank Choice Voting saved her.
@@wolfmantroy6601So sad! Keep trying and don’t give up DON’T EVER GIVE UP!!!
She just worked her way back as Senator for six more years with the Rank Choice Voting in 2022 so she will be a rino when Trump returns....
Stonewalling BS. The gridlock in DC is disgusting.
unless its money to the Ukraine,Then things work at lightning speed !
Why can't these appointed "officials" be arrested for BREAKING THE F'N LAW?!!!!
That woman is so guilty it's written all of her face. But the words she speaks contradicts the guilt. Instead she's defending it.
Get these people out already!!!
Cut the BLM’s budget. Here is a number. 1. Is 0 a number? I’d like to see a pic of Tracy when she was a rebel and not a politician
Black lives matter?
Our plates are full senator. What kind of answer is that? Sorry senator the burden is to heavy. Sounds like she needs a shovel, the fork is no longer working.
It WILL NOT CHANGE until you cut their budget, our govt is so top heavy; that no work is getting done.
Thank you, Senator. Murkowski. The psychopathology of this runaway dumpster on fire is not funny.
Murkowski is a RINO
She's garage and I can say that being in alaska.
Sadly we were not able to fire her this last election. Rank Choice Voting saved her bacon.
Murkowsky is a HUGE part of the problem. Her act is just about campaign material. She needs to be voted out...long overdue.
Murkowski helped create and contributed to the problem.
The senator spends time telling us about all the empty, unkept promises, and she asks for another commitment. I might as well be watching Abbott and Costello.
Well Lisa, you better choose between the Dems and Trump, even if you don't like Trump, he's gonna be one hell of a lot better for Alaska than Biden! Stop criticizing him, get on the Trump Train!
Unelected officials legislating.
High crimes against this Nation.
Imagine if these government agency’s had consequences
Plates are full??.. better eat that shit and get to work.🇺🇲
Anytime they say workload it means they just don’t want to do it. Drive by any blm building and count the cars in the parking lot.
As much as I admire Sen. Rand Paul, I wish he'd tell us the amount of taxpayer dollars that are wasted on these useless, do nothing and go nowhere committees.
the rep from az did tho, its like 100k/hr
Fine bureaucrats for lying
Ask the Native Americans about broken promises and treaties.
Taxpayers fund government (Federal), yet some DC bureaucrat is going to tell the people who fund the land what they can and can’t do?
@briane97 ---> Yep. It has been that way since the Nation was formed. IF the Cabinet Secretaries were elected instead of appointed, there might be a difference. But,,,, since Cabinet Secretaries (and the "Directors" of the sub units, such as the B.L.M. & B.I.A.) are appointees and political hires that agree with the current U.S. president and his Advisors, then we get what we have right now: Extreme leftists and tree-huggers, affirmative-action hires, gender-confusion types and 2nd Amendment haters in high places in Government.
No accountability, and no responsibility.
Cut funding! Finally someone has figured out how to stop these bureaucratic agencies. A project they have been working on for ten years, and they can’t get it done because of workload. Guess they never heard of a priority list.
Always remember government employees have no obligation to give correct information and cannot be held accountable for mistakes made. Protection from liability is written into law for federal employees. Always remember that anytime they speak. If you think accountability exists you will be disappointed
Well that needs to be reversed!- "cuffs, orange jumpsuits and thrown into back of the waiting van" LOL
@@androidemulator6952 I hope to live to see that day
Why can’T State’s just retake their land from the federal govmt?
Drill baby drill.
Liar liar- ent thing to hurt the common worker!!!
dragging their feet, for 10 years!
If I showed up to a scheduled meeting with my supervisor(s) or other department heads completely unprepared. Or acting like I am clueless about a job I had been assigned or working on. I would be fired immediately. Why is this person still holding position.
she hasn't cared about Alaska for a long time.
And She has collected a paycheck for 10 year's ....and NOT completed the job....well that's progress !!!!! and great job security ,well done!!!!
In the real world, refusing to comply with an order(law in this case) is immediate grounds for dismissal.
Maybe if they did some work and had leadership to solve problems things would get done. Too many committees no direction.
Term limits, job and tax audits yearly, lower salaries,no pensions or perks.They are really useless puppets
uh...uh....uh... thats what a liar says!
Hank Johnson is trying to figure out how Black Lives Matter is in Alaska.
She needs to be removed from this department that she is directing. Tracy-Stone should be impeached!
Small wonder when aliens fly by Earth and lock their doors !!!!
They do what they want, when they want and if they want because NO ONE WILL DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT !!!
then Murkowski should vote Trump and issue resolved
Blah blah blah , same thing at every one ofthese hearing I think these senators and congress are all in this together talk , talk and talk but not one thing ever gets done!!!!
Their plate is full with food ,that is about all on taxpayers money.
These people don't know what a "work load", is.
The senate , in its entirety, needs to get off its rear and clean house. BUT we know that has never happened and clearly will not happen now.
This is not an issue at the forefront of our minds. Thank you for standing up for this issue.
If the workload is to great do away with the department ,no more workload
Wow Murkowski actually standing up for the people?
She smirks well, they all do.......
A Professor at Cleveland State University told my neighbor's son if there's one thing you will remember from this class it's that government is for business
Collective decision means nobody is accountable? Typical of all the respondents in these hearings is that nobody is responsible but everybody draws fancy salaries.
We’re busy. We need more money.
Workload.......wow go work in the private sector and tell your boss it's not done because of workload.....typical bureaucrats. The SWAMP needs drained and get some hard-working common sense people in these positions.
what a bureaucrat. "our plates are full". wow. only a government worker. imagine telling the CEO of Coca Cola. I didn't get to it bc our plates are full
How can the executive branch get away with not serving the people??
Unprepared and incompetent.
Excuses!
Solution: what is government doing telling anyone how to manage their property. Disband.
Is there any government funded bodies in he USA that isn't ignoring the rules and laws and doing whatever it feels like?
It’s useless trying to shame these types by highlighting their delaying and lack of progress. This is Because they and their peers see it as a triumph. I guarantee you later they give each other high-fives.
Are plates are full? Incompetence!
I can't watch this. I'm furious
"Gosh, we're just SOOOOOOO busy! We can't possibly keep a promise we made 10 years ago!" Oh.... When did you realize this? "Just last week! I swear!" 😂
Why is is hard to tell people what they are doing lol they know what they are doing is wrong
Why do these stooges always smile at inappropriate moments, like when caught red-handed having done no work..?
When a RINO gets riled up about something, you know there's an issue.
Tracy Stone Manning needs to loose her job, and maybe even spend some time in prison. 😡🇨🇦
I don’t know how sincere Rep. Murkowski is being here - seeing that she’s one of the worst RINOs in Congress - but she did good here regardless of her level of sincerity.
Finally she gets it, years late but at least we are starting to roll.
How can these people keep coming forward with no answers, looking like and sounding like fools, never give a straight answer, know nothing, speak nothing, being totally disrespectful, AND NOT FACE OBSTRUCTION CHARGES. THEY SHOULD GO TO JAIL
Everybody that questions why our Government is non functioning should review this 5 minutes!
Wow! Come on America! We need to get these people out!!!!
Her response makes no sense
Wow, Murkowski being tough for a change. Congrats.
Tough words but what about actions bet if you go back to last years hearing you will hear the same “ tough words “ and still no action
The incompetence is unbelievable. But I see it so I believe it
Did ya vote for her there Murkowski?
You can tell she's lying the way she says not that I know of
Love all these shows, but they never end in any repercussions or accountability!
The federal government needs to turn ownership of all federal lands back to the states. States need to be in control of their lands, economies and destinies.
watching the US Government fail to even hint of a working body.....becomes more frightening every day . The people who we were terrified might be in charge someday.....are indeed in charge, and look at what we are getting.
Every decision made by government needs to put emphasis on what is best for the United States of America.
Period.
Glad to see Lisa finally standing up for our state.
Why hasn’t this woman or her boss lost their jobs? They’re obviously incompetent as she’s failed to answer any question directly or honestly.
The lady behind Mrs. Murkowski rocking that throwback, late 80's hairdo! LOL
First time I have ever heard Murkowski stand up to anyone. Too little, too late?
It is easy to understand workload problems. When workers are only required to come into the office once a week. To get a full weeks pay.
Dear Lord.... our plates are full????????
