  1. 20/20 was supposed to be the year of clarity& the only thing I’ve SEENis how corrupt the govt can b.its disheartening

  2. Every republican president has given a recession but this takes the cake 🤕

    When will Americans learn.

    1. so are you a bot, or just bored and posting the same comments on a zillion videos, or is someone paying you to post the same comment a zillion times.

    2. @harrison wintergreen are you calling him bot because you can’t face the truth? you must be bored too. defending your beloved GOP. Most likely the next Nazi party of the 21st century. And honestly democrats aren’t any better for letting this happen because their politics was too weak. so in general America is done for. enjoy it.

    3. @harrison wintergreen Are you offended by the fact that the last Republican with a good economy was Eisenhower?

  3. America is

    23 in education.
    37 in healthcare.
    34 in raising family index.
    No high-speed train.
    Highest number of homeless people.
    Highest number of incarcerated people.
    78% of people live paycheck to paycheck.

    Stock market is not economy of Americans! Where 90% of money belongs to top 10% of the population, it’s wallet for the rich.

    Let’s talk like adults, instead of name calling.

    I have left the proof on my playlist, if you would like to check!

    Let’s make our country better together. . .

    1. Mate, I’m happier and safer being 61 and unemployed in Australia, than a Millionaire in the States. Good Luck guys, for what it’s worth.

    1. Make political corruption an act of treason punishable by life commuted from federal prison for life in state prison for those who bribe politicians as well as politicians who take those bribes and force it to pass without any need for politicians to pass it by the ballot initiative process. That way, I can contact various prison shot callers or Mac reps in California state prisons and give them the idea to rent out,for example, president trumps hindquarters to other inmates to generate funds in which to bribe correctional officers to smuggle in more cigarettes and pot for the whole prison yard to enjoy. If the shot callers or Mac reps don’t go for it Democrat politicians that serve terms for political corruption will be put with the gangs that back up the north and will be expected by them to fight well in riots or they will be killed by them while Republican politicians doing the same terms for the same reason will be put with the gangs that back up the south and with the same expectations by these gangs about riots or they suffer the consequences which is usually for example but not limited to correctional officers finding them dead in their bunks with golf pencil impaled into eye socket during morning count. Otherwise, it should also be included that such inmates that got convicted for political corruption become inelligible for special needs yards where they either walk mainline yards or placed in protective custody which means cell living units, 23 hours locked up with one hour of either showers, yard time in an outdoor cage, or day room to watch TV which are rotated by the gun tower every week. That way they get to meet and spend quality time with the same people whose lives were ruined by the corrupt laws they passed as either homicide victims or their punks, for life.

    1. @Randy Couch have you bothered to view anything other than right wing fox news? No? Then please shut up, leave politics to the adults.

  4. #mnsbc i think trump is confessing to our faces about his coruption. just an idea maybe you could look into cant believe it, he inflates ethanol when the world needs sanitizer the main ingredient being ethanol. he owns shares in pharma so what’s the bet he selling it to Americans at inflated prices. He only retains information if he has a vested interest, .:_tdpsDavid::thanksdoc::_tdpsDavid:

  5. Well what else would you call a group dressed up like terrorists, and are armed to the teeth, who are testing explosives, making plans to blow up bridges, and conducting video surveillance on a person’s home for the purpose of kidnapping them, and possibly ki//ing them???  Hmmm.😞
    If that isn’t terrorism, then there’s no such thing as terrorism.

    Terrorism is defined as: The unlawful use of violence and intimidation, especially against civilians, in the pursuit of political, religious or ideological goals. Call these people what they are.

    If it looks like a duck, walks like a duck, and quacks like a duck, it’s perfectly okay to call it a duck.

  6. A white supremacist, a domestic terrorist, and a violent anarchist walk into a bar.
    Bartender says, “Maga rally’s that way.”

    😅😂🤣

    1. @james volt government and country aren’t the same thing. Overthrowing a corrupt government is protecting the country.

    2. @OVERLEVENDE1 That’s the only reason _these_ militias exist. However the militia described in the Constitution that these clowns profess to revere tells a different story. Article 1, Section 8 “The Congress shall have the power……to provide for calling forth the Militia to execute the Laws of the Union, suppress Insurrections and repel Invasions.” To execute the laws, not duly elected officials. To suppress insurrections, not freakin’ participate in them.

    3. @emsley Wyatt and the 2nd amendment shall not be infringed and there can be no laws that suppress speech, but here we are. You people have been violating our constitution for years, don’t start quoting it now.

    4. Just like the Democrats have done to the President for the past 4 years.
      The only thing the did wrong was they didn’t succeed.

  7. That orange hyproct banned Muslims from non terrorist nations but won’t do anything about these home grown terrorist. The FBI did their job, tRump gets no credit….

  8. I see the Idiots are out. If you claim to be a Christian, but break one of the Commandments to not bare false witness against others.. God won’t be playing nicely with you.

  9. TRUMP AND REPUBLICANS WORK FOR DICTATORSHIP COUNTRIES THAT OWN AMERICAN COMPANIES THAT OWN OUR REPUBLICAN POLITICIANS THAT OWN OUR ROGUE LAW ENFORCEMENT BLUE LINE……..WAKE UP AMERICA.

    1. I saw that one actually where the woman was put in the basement and then found the body in the chest freezer…

  10. Adam Fox Was in a militia but got kicked out, so he formed his own. He decided to call his group “Wolverine Watchmen”, because “Fox & Friends” was taken.

  11. Who sits around and talks about kidnapping a governor? She is elected, they couldn’t wait a couple years and try to vote her out?
