    1. I applied for unemployment in California on March 7th 2020 and til this day I have never received my payments. I applied for a combined wage claim (TX, CA) and until this day the EDD is incapable of basic skills. Where is my unemployment money and 24 weeks PEUC!!? I am missing a total of 38 weeks

  1. “Translated from the original Russian”. And the line delivered with a straight face. I just love Brian!

    1. @Joe Mcghee Does it matter, though? They’re pandering to the irrational, especially in their districts, and when so many Republican voters are irrational or badly misinformed to the point of worshiping an orange con man, that’s the “safe” play.

  2. Man it’s tough to hear the sadness in Al franken’s voice. They might not convict but at the very least, we rightfully deserve some good news. Here’s to hoping they’ll convict as unlikely as it is.

  3. Ron Johnson needs to be QUIET for the rest of his life. He doesn’t know if he’s coming or going… 🙄

    1. @R L T Actually, I prefer the Anthony Q. whatshisname in Nashvilles take on things, it’s definitely shapeshifting alien lizard people who have assimilated our DNA and rule the flat earth because we never went to the moon!

      Along with the Mueller report, the follwoing scads of thousands of pages make a nice bedtime story to keep the mind off the “bannon is president of china in exile” conundrum 😉

    2. @Ash Roskell – This impeachment trial could end up causing the 2016 primary rigging to also be looked into more thoroughly, given that Chairperson Donna Brazile admitted cheating had taken place, and the issue was only partially addressed in court after the DNC claimed to be “a club unbeholden to electoral standards”…We must keep in mind that one thing does tend to lead to another.

    3. @Harry Johnstone Oh Johnny…I never…I mean never… look at unsolicited media from unknown commenters on…of all places…You Tube. You’ll have to find someone else willing invest the time to jump though your contrived and curated hoops. Now..if you have sent me a vid of Mueller eating his nightly pudding and confusedly addressing his wife as “Ralph” and saying “I have no recollection of that” over and over and over again….I would relish watching that. In that case…. please let me know and I’ll make an exception. Always remember Johnny…try not to strain at the stool. Always good advice.

    4. @Bryn Carlson Wi is emBAR rasing together with Florida as the only difference is they wear flip flops all year long .

    5. @Mary Halverson who called for the ruskie fake bernie broettes anyway? new talking ponit memo and marching orders from Q?

    1. The Qonspiracy “theorists” had it right about a presidential emergency management system message, the arrests of over 8,000,000 Americans, commuications and power blackouts etc. – they just didn’t KNOW that the OathGeeper, Treepercenter, and ProudGIRL mercenaries had to succeed in hanging Pence in order for trump to “liberate washington”, invoke the insurrection act, and declare martial law before he could issue those PEAD

      He cheered with glee for tweo hours until it became obvious his violent coup had failed, only THEN did he call for peace – two frikken hours into it

      We know what he planned just connect the dots then push your big blue crayon the rest of the way to the end of the page and say it outloud

  4. I’ve heard that there is a new black comedy show coming soon. It’s called the Republican Party. Apparently it’s a reality show starring you know who.

    1. @Señor Gwapo brainwashed…..the left has ruined the word nazi, racist, bigot, homophobe, islamaphobe…..they hold no meaning anymore because you’d call a mushroom racist for growing out of the poop of a white cow vs a cow of color

    1. @akparadise , I think that is unfair to the earthworm, because earthworm purpose is quite consistence, unlike Lindsay!

    2. You know what the sad thing is? Our whole democracy is hanging on barely and these feckless cowards are controlling the outcome. They could careless if the united states become a Banana Republic. We are hanging on by a thread and they have the scissors.

  5. It seems like the Republican Senators by not stepping up is going to drive even more sensible people away from the party if there are any left.

    1. Anne, I don’t think there are too many left in the party anyway. It is mostly Trump people there now. IT IS THE TRUMP PARTY NOW.

    1. @Doc Holiday Yes, if you are a hammer then everything looks like a nail and if you are a gun then everything looks like a target.

    2. ​@Dee Pattison I am a hammer. I am a gun, I’m also decent, sweet, honest, hardworking kind and intelligent. Who are YOU?

    1. Think outside the box what you said? I can agree on. but you forgetting something?

      think about the MONEY $$ 74 MILLION RACIST? to politicians? that equals (MONEY $$).

      they don’t care about trchump 👈 those republicans? that marvel for trchump? they just after the MONEY$$$ 👈
      those voters are more important to them they just putting up a SHOW. 👈

      if I was in their shoes? in the republicans shoes? that are in office/congress?. they are playing the GRIFTING GAMES 👈 💲💰 LOT’S OF IT!!.

      tchump unlocked a poor grifting scheme I don’t know how would I live with myself making pretend to be in the tchump cult.

      If I was a congress person? I make pretend too that’s a lot of money to STEAL on campaign season use that racist guy’s name? & those
      racist militia supporters of his throw money at you!!. it’s all about the MONEY. 💰👈

      & all the republican party? is all racist so it’s a win win yes even the black republicans. they don’t mind being called a monkey
      they too will tap into that Trchump racist base money & I have a feeling? that tchump is going to have to fight to keep his mONEY BASE. 💲💰

      so keep a close eye on the racist money football games where the leader? is going to be under attack by those sneaky snake republicans.
      they are making pretend to walk the walk because they finally tapped into a 74 MILLION DOLLAR VAULT with NO LIMITS. 💲💰✈️

      if they all donated $1? that’s $74 MILLION DOLLARS A MINUTE & that is what the Republicans want. but they are trying to figure out how? can they destroy
      the maker & steal the base all to themselves it’s all about the MONEY!!.

      but if Ivanka runs? in florida? & beats? Marco? witch she will he will be a BUM & forgotten that racist base is strong Trchump created it.
      but his daughter? as dumb as she is? He will deliver all his 74 MILLION racist voters out there to make her the new face of the republican party,

      & destroy them all. Republicans will have to sniff her butt for the rest of their lives they will be NOBODY’S she won’t win the presidency but? she can keep florida
      for DECADES being a politician there.

      unless New York has found a way to lock up this racist militia witch is the 74 MILLION voter base. United States? has to contain the beast from within or face reality with what might come in the future another JANUARY 6TH. 👈

    2. I’m part of the Franken Base who gets upset everytime I think about how he was railroaded. I want him back. I really think no one cares! 😡

    1. Rat publicunts are weak pansies passing as men. Used to be called girlie men then we found women tougher.

    1. That was a great line wasn’t it? Also this one could apply: he speaks from the part of the body where the sun don’t shine.

    2. @Paul Drusbasky and where is truth? On FOX, Newsmax and OAN– the Conspiracy Theories channels? Peddlers of LIES! Hatred promoting against Democrats.

  6. Ron Johnson is living on planet suitable for people with no direction he doesn’t know what is true and what is false. a total dud.

  7. They’re literally afraid of their base at this point, not that they won’t vote for them but that they’ll string them up from a tree.

    1. @Eric Wood – What happened on Jan. 6th was just a harbinger of the uprisings due to erupt among a wide variety of long-suffering people now chomping at the bit to confront this nation’s corrupt institutions.

    2. @Mary Halverson Agree, but with the caveat that the corruption in question is largely fictitious and exists only in the minds of these badly misinformed people.

    3. @Eric Wood -The “badly informed people” are actually those who think corporate-owned & controlled sites that promote a warmongering tool like Biden aren’t just as devious as Qanon, Newsmax & Fox.

  8. People afraid to speak up and protect the Country should never be Elected again, they’re unfit to serve!

    1. @L. B. – It’s time for us to grow up as a nation and face the disturbing fact that the CDC works in tandem with the Hospital/Pharma/Insurance industrial complex that’s proven time and again to be “Centered” on reaping vast profits rather than “Disease Control,” (just as population control freak eugenicists are more apt to invest in agendas that would diminish the population rather than stabilize it, no?)

    2. We went through 4 years of Russia rigged the election to; elections can’t be rigged, really fast didn’t we? Isn’t that a bs

    1. @R L T🤡 so happy you’re amused…I must have struck a nerve, or your funny bone🦴🙆🏻‍♀️, hon…

  9. Ron Johnson continues to humiliate himself, and looks so foolish and stupid on just about every interview and news station. Then there’s Lindsey, the flip-flopper. Her speech at the Capitol was meaningless, which defined her as a flip flopper again. It’s clear that Lindsey’s head continues forward up Trump’s rear.

    1. Oh, your feefees got hurt by his comments. So sorry for you. Love your channel image; is it by an Impressionist? Is it by Monet, titled ‘White non-college educated male’? Or is it abstract, maybe Pollack’s ‘The Imbecile’? (snickers and sincerity )

    2. @Gaylord Manlove Q is not a thing, it’s way of life, an active measure in motion, a fяame of reference, and a cancerous memetic virus of hiveminded simpletons who are so full of angst they should begin self flagellation and bodymods including neural chips that block the spacewaves and feed them “a night at the garden” reruns without VR glasses
