  1. The COMPLETE OBLITERATION of the GOP is the only remedy for an inept complicit self serving TREASONOUS “organization”.

    1. @Jeremy Parker We will still cast our votes to remove that filth of a President even if our bodies are on fire we will vote
      you can count on that.

    2. I propose a law right now. All life time appointments should either be abolished or reconfirmed every 10 to 15 years after the appointment by a vote in the Senate. Lifetime appointments are a relic of a time which has pasted. Oh and the electoral college can take a hike too. Ok…..boomer.

    3. @Isasiah Bradley electoral college is in place for a very good reason. Trump rally Thursday watch it you’ll be glad you did

    1. @myko freder we seen all of what you are projecting, in the Obama admin. Never recall hearing you step to the plate pointing out the Welfare Kings blatant corruption, yet on accusations, you pump the the Dems talking points like you are on the DNC payroll.

    2. I’m a Dem with honorable communitarian , family values . Some of us are tired of lgbtq oligarchy pushing stuff on us and bullying us. A conservative court will help push back against that. Instead of going through Congress, they’re using courts to force feed us their values and ideologies

    3. I’m a Dem with conservative family values. We are tired of lgbtq oligarchy pushing stuff on us and bullying us. A conservative court will help push back against that. Instead of going through Congress, they’re using courts to force feed us their values and ideologies. The people that can’t speak bc of cancel culture are speaking with a more conservative court

    1. Deb Iris A point… That could be the top of my hat or it could what’s missing in logic that clearly has defiled itself or it could simply be the spot where the pedulum falls next. Who knows? Now if you don’t mind I’m watching a movie and focusing my energy on something important to me which is called living.

    2. @Sovereign Butterfly Work out! No one is keeping you on here away from your TV babbling nonsensical comments! I was just giving you the benefit of the doubt that you might actually have something to say that was worth a listen. My mistake.

    3. Deb Iris Thanks…. I’m baffled at how the entire Republican party has been leading this president down the path of impeachment by dismissing the facts and at the same time diminishing our cultural ideals of supporting a president by not scrutinizing the facts! The whole thing is quite illuminating but there are better shows!

  2. Kentucky ‘s Mitch McConnell will go down in our American history books as being the most un-American political operative in our era. He is racist, and sexist, and his conservatism is extremely right wing.
    I hope Kentucky votes him out of office.

    1. Let us not forget Fascist – it can’t be wished away – it happens – even in America – when the people close their eyes to the truth..

    2. @Gee Bee I disagree with everything you wrote about Trump, he mentions all the concernes you have all the time.

      Their are only two parties, can’t win them all.

  3. The image of two, actually, real life evil people at that rally. And still the brainwashed people whose faces they step on cheer them on.

    1. @Obama The Liberal Sicko The uranium deal has been debunked years ago. About 10 different depts. had to signoff on this. Go back under the rock that you have been under for the last few years.

  4. “We are changing the courts forever…so if you are not rich you are screwed.” Way to go trump voters, great job voting against your own interest

    1. He’s actually not lying. The Trump administration has been busy appointing federal judges at a alarming rate.

    2. Mitch is changing the Court for evangelicals bc it’s an issue they care about. This Senator making the messaging be about economic conservativism and predatory capitalism. Not buying.

      I’m a Dem with conservative family values. We are tired of lgbtq oligarchy pushing stuff on us and bullying us. A conservative court will help push back against that. Instead of going through Congress, they’re using courts to force feed us their values and ideologies. The people that can’t speak bc of cancel culture are speaking with a more conservative court

    3. @0 1 you’re a Russian troll that watches fox news. The biggest myth is that lgbtq people are forcing their beliefs on others. They just dont want others beliefs forced on them.

    1. @Lily Zavala well, at least you got my mother’s name right, but, not sure what you mean about “relax” if I were any more relaxed, I might be dead. It’s comforting to know Trump, even if impeached, he will not be removed, and those that have cognitive thinking abilities, know the Dems tactics have already guarentee’ d his reelection in 2020.

    2. @Lily Zavala Lily, you might want to look into that before you make that claim, educate yourself on your welfare king before you step in some really stinky stuff…lol

    3. @judd Holmberg i prefer a welfare king as a president than a Russian puppet? You and your maga hat wearing buddies are out your damned minds.

    4. @Lily Zavala read the Mueller Report, he told them to stand down. So doesn’t matter what you think happen. The investigation found that it did happen. How could he have been impeached when he was already leaving office

    5. @Lily Zavala lmmfao…I figured you were an America hating liberal. What I can’t figure out is….why?

  5. Mitch McConnell is one of these people who turned into a real villain because he was allowed to have power for way too long.

    1. Moscow Mitch thinks he’s too big to fail. I wonder, will he dream of his power when he’s being turked in prison? And he claims to be a man of God. You sir, are dispicable. Good day

    1. Conspiracat they are already screaming that about the house for the rules THEY put in place in 2015 about “closed door hearings!!! They have NO conscience or MORAL values!!!

    2. I’m a Dem with conservative family values. We are tired of lgbtq oligarchy pushing stuff on us and bullying us. A conservative court will help push back against that. Instead of going through Congress, they’re using courts to force feed us their values and ideologies. The people that can’t speak bc of cancel culture are speaking with a more conservative court

  6. Everything McConnell and Trump have done is putting “yes sir” judges without any experience on any judicial matters for life. American people must vote
    McConnel and Trump out.

    1. So changing the court system because it is challenging his criminality?? Is that a case of criminality being untried??
      So the poor innocent one of the witch hunt needs to change the very constitution to protect him from any further indictments??

  7. 2 Hour vetting IS UNACCEPTABLE. The PEOPLE must fight TO REPEAL THESE UNQUALIFIED JUDGES. McConnell the CROOK and ENEMY OF THE PEOPLE must be evicted at the ballot box.

    1. Gee Bee Yes they are! I just saw where the governors race in KY sent a big message to these guys. A big upset for Trump and McConnell. Let’s hope this leads to McConnell turning on the orange one soon!

    2. I’m a Dem with conservative family values. We are tired of lgbtq oligarchy pushing stuff on us and bullying us. A conservative court will help push back against that. Instead of going through Congress, they’re using courts to force feed us their values and ideologies. The people that can’t speak bc of cancel culture are speaking with a more conservative court

    1. You mean after all these years, they are playing the Demorcrats game, but are just better at it, and you take,offense to it…NOW. You lefty libs are so predictable.

    2. @Chatty Cathy um hello, This isn’t a Fox news clip. I will say out of all the different news channels, fox does report a lot more balanced. Maybe you should try finding a different source to resonate your hate from.

  8. Dear Evangelicals, if you’re looking for the anti-Christ, have a look in your senate. He looks a bit like a turtle.

    1. @Richard T

      Early the next morning Jacob took the stone he had placed under his head and set it up as a pillar and poured oil on top of it.

      And I heard a voice from among the four living beings say, “A loaf of wheat bread or three loaves of barley will cost a day’s pay. And don’t waste the olive oil and wine.”

      More DISOBEDIENCE of Jacob.

    2. @0 1 yes, and, growing up in the buckle of the Bible belt I was warned of attacks my whole life. Now I know what they was talking about. After a while I became sympathetic towards LGBTQ, but I have recently realized that I have been far to sympathetic. People who claim they are part of communities based on what ever say they want equality, but they don’t, they want to rule the world. And I can no longer say it’s ok what God says is not, so I’ve been pulling it back.

    3. Richard T I’m happy to know some people are seeing that this coalition at the highest levels literally only care about itself. I learned their the threat of their agenda(s) by conducting analysis of many of their organizations and following some their policies , and their consequences, here and in Europe where they’ve had longer success. Im convince that lgbtq agenda(s) are a threat to “real minorities “ and protected classes like women and the black community. And they are a threat to religious liberty, something hundreds of millions of people died for throughout the centuries. They are also a threat to family stability, the importance of community and scientific accountability. And they try and force sexuality and gender on kids. They are an oligarchy, not a minority. They are the oppressor that is faking as the oppressed

    4. @0 1 Wow, good Job 0 1, and yes they are targeting Kids, and no telling how long they have been doing it. God be with us.

      And, so many decent people are believing this is OK.

  9. Mitch has no clue what’s around the corner…I’m begging everyone who’ll be eligible to vote next year, PLEASE GET OUT THERE AND VOTE. Your voice counts…please stop this madness.

  10. When the Dems take over the Senate, the House and the Oval Office, Congress should then start impeaching Republican installed judges on grounds of incompetence, bias and corruption.

    1. Kavanagh should be the first out the door …He couldn’t even handle the interview without losing his temper…How can he be an impartial judge …The man is an Alcoholic.
