    1. @Helen Smith Yes, doing that is literally what she was talking against. RESPECT is what she is speaking of, Respect for each other is so lost. SO SAD

    2. ​@Taun Taun’s Mr. President How’s your support of Trump working out for you?
      Better jobs, better wages, better terms and conditions.
      Has he made the pandemic magically disappear with his beans?
      Remember the ebola outbreak from 5 years ago that Obama did nothing about and allowed to spread like wildfire across the country killing hundreds of thousands?

    1. @00Fiddlesticks00 Consider yourself corrected Claimed to be pretended to be something she is not for the purpose of personal gain . Simply comparing her to other politicians does not excuse the fact nothing but a Con at the end of the day that makes it all about her

  1. Yoho just has a bad case of white fragility – the newest disease sweeping red state America.

    1. Jumpers Clerk Are you kidding? She ripped him in half and left him in a state of shame. You know he wishes he never said that at this very moment. His children will give him a side eye

    2. David Patton you don’t know his race. Why does racism work hand in hand with the right? An angry black!? Perhaps his comment struck a nerve David Patton

    3. @Calacur Rather “Equality” means that he, in fact, DID pick on someone “his own size.”

      You can’t have your cake and eat it too.

  2. Yoho is a sad POS. His wife doesn’t love him and his daughter is most likely ashamed to claim him…that’s why the well of hate inside him runs so deep.

  3. The GOP needs to figure out this isn’t ‘old white America’ anymore. Never has been, but the more apparent it becomes, the more fearful they get.

    1. Pensa Simpson the minute whites are no longer are a majority is the minute everything gets way worse. Hope your kids enjoy a multicultural hellish future that you so love lol.

    2. Thomas Traveling A little was built on the backs of slaves. We all agree that slavery is terrible. The world has had slavery for thousands of years. The Republican Party stopped it in America!

    3. Giovanni Avila Ha Ha! Biden will drool all over himself, fondle little kids and torpedo his chances for the third time. You’re pathetic to push him.

    4. @Your life has meaning God damnitTrump loves Russia and Putin. You are a fake patriot like the draft dodger Bunker Boy.

  4. It’s sad to see old white men want to go back to their days where women were in the house and minorities were 2nd rate citizens #Biden2020

    1. @Mark Di Maggio On the corporations, yes, a tax increase, they are now paying literally les than the average laborer, thanks to #45.

    2. Nope 2nd hand info esp from a reporter I don’t say is proof people in prision everyday over wrong hearing/seeing not joining pity party she evidently wants with her speech

  5. Why is Yoho still sitting in Congress? The republicans must remove him…oh yeah their “moral” leader is trump.

    1. What exactly has he done that’s so immoral that effects his ability to be President? His previous marital sins are none of my concern, judging his personal life that doesn’t effect anyone but him and his ex-wives isn’t my concern. My concern is how he runs this Country and from what I’ve seen he does a damn good job at running this Country. It’s pathetic to use a private personal matter (that isn’t a crime) against him when he’s doing an amazing job at leading this Country.

    2. And I would like to know how you think it’s appropriate to use gossip and alleged affairs to slander someone?

    3. @Taun Taun’s Mr. President AOC is right the slander is not doing anything to help !Are you slandering ! CNN does everyday!

    4. The “adults” in the room are too chickenshit to tell their beloved orange emperor that he’s buck nekkid.

    1. @Gregory Malchuk – Peaceful protesters don’t mind peaceful police in the first place. Hell, some of these crowds have been joined by the boys/girls in blue. What’s unacceptable is shooting tear gas into a crowd you can’t confirm are all “violent rioters”. When you incite violence, you invite it to breed.

      And you’re still stuck on the “he was a violent criminal” schitck. It’s my fault. It’s your fault. It’s societies fault in general. Criminals are just born that way, they are raised into it. Society itself reinforces that by things like sending people to prison instead of sending them to rehabilitation. One makes them repeat their offenses (jail), the other helps put them back into a place on contributing to society.

      I don’t condone violence and I don’t approve of crimes, and that goes both ways. If those officers intended to do that, they should be able to handle it themselves.

    2. @blueflame
      I am right wing and I support the complete decarbonization of the energy infrastructure especially using fast breeder nuclear reactors.

    1. I beg to differ, Yoho is exactly what White Evangelical Christians are and represent, they souled their souls for their 30 pieces of silver i.e; abortion… REPUBLICANS are the modern day Sadducees and Pharisees who KILLED CHRIST and if Christ were to return today REPUBLICANS and MAGA’s would CRUCIFY CHRIST Today! They spew from their bodies Wickedness and Evil like a spider spews a web!

    2. This guy needs to read the “the Sermon on the Mount”! Then he will know what God expects of him. I He is well short of what God expects at the moment!

    1. @Dusty Davis Edited because I agree there. Curious though, what did you mean when you said she probably deserved worse? Do you have evidence that she’s committed murder or pedophilia? And what sort of worse do you mean? Obviously not violence (since I assume you group that close to murder – and to advocate violence toward her you’d be saying you don’t deserve respect), so are you thinking a stern talking to?

    2. @Blue Stack if democrats can ditch it out they should be able to take it, its always one sided with democrats

    1. @shucks ma ur not we the people no bad words were said to her face , it’s 2 nd hand info not recorded nor on camera and he’s a reporter. Jails are full of innocent people that some one miss id ed or thought they heard.

  6. He is retiring in January and chooses this to be perhaps his last public memory. Privileged Old White Man crap.

  7. Damn, if this kinda “sexual harassment “ happened at my government office, I’d be sent home or worse ,fired

    1. He comes under the “one rule for the rich and another for the rest” principle. Chances are nothing at all will happen to him.

    2. Don’t forget about “creating a hostile work environment”. Even my most junior staff understand those basics. Despicable.

    1. Lisa Norman….democrats say worse things about he president on almost a daily basis. He doesn’t need to apologize, he did nothing wrong.

    2. Why should he be censored, for telling the truth. You people who live in a world of “trump knows best” are fools and do you really think he gives a damn about you, HELL NO HE DOESN’T. Barr and trump, need to go.

    3. Rather one sided aren’t u, people in jail for people that made wrong seeing/ hearing u know, 2nd hand info not info esp from reporter then she abused it ontop by her speech no pity wagon here political abuse is more like it

    4. @Carolyn Carter oh but dems for war zone terrorist criminals an all wont even stand against it to protect citizens

  8. I am sure calls his wife and daughter s same when they disagree with him. How the hell these people get elected to the congress? Rep s have no shame?

  9. Republicans and Fox have been taking swings at AOC ever since her stunning win, and they keep missing!
    They obviously have not read Einstein’s definition of Insanity.

  10. Notice how she is speaking from heart. She doesn’t need a piece of paper to read her feeling.AOC use her words as a bullet without a gun POWERFUL.Kudo AOC.!!
