Sen. Angus King: D.C. March Was A Moving, Important Experience | Morning Joe | MSNBC
Senator King is a man of character, a rare breed left in the Senate.
a voice of reason, hopefully there will be more after November
Here in Maine, just like every other state, sometimes we get it right (I-King), sometimes we get it wrong (R-Collins). We’ll try to fix that error this November.
@Eddie Pratt Eddie I’ve got a really creepy feeling you support LGBTQ 😳
tinyurl.com/vpf95na 🎶
Yes. Love him.
@William H Music 2020 …and your point is?
Simple Solution: Clearly identified police officers should arrest those who are not clearly identified and charge them with impersonating police.
@Michael Strawser Seattle protests yesterday were peaceful by thousands, then the police attacked.
@15k DOW 2022 What kind of weirdo neonazi, or KKK tRumpenkrieger are you?
Don’t pretend to be a Russian bot, that’s overrated already. 🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄😁😁😁😷😷😂😂😂
15k DOW 2022 , Good point. I am not sure about citizens arresting ‘maybe cops’. What would work is revoking qualified immunity for police. That would shutdown this mess real quick.
@15k DOW 2022 That might cause a gun battle. A clear photo should suffice; it can be pattern matched at a future time.
@Michael Strawser Well, if you see guys wearing Hawaiian shirts, carrying assault rifles you know they aren’t the boy scouts
I’m a conservative republican who will be voting for Biden.
Did you go to school in Taiwan? I was there @ Taipei American School, Remember Mary and Coco?
If this is not you sorry to bother
Intelligent, informed choice 💙
@Susan Greene informed about what he’s a troll 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂Trump 2020
me too.
The police is the extension of white supremacy. That is why Karen, got on the cell phone and lied to have the Black Man Killed.
She knew exactly what she was doing. She knew that a phone call like that, would bring police, with guns drawn and a possible arrest/shooting death of another African/American man.
Please do not tar all white people with the same brush. There are quite a few of us who are not enamored with this lawless excuse for a leader. I have also criticized the findings of the 1st autopsy of Mr. Floyd as being incompetent.
@Nancy M Ross There are many good people in the human race and bad ,so no exclusive
@Nancy M Ross …. we don’t consider all whit folk as racist, just as we were tared w/the same brush here at home and around the world. We were begging this country and world not to see us as criminals, racist, thugs, drug addicts, even in the movies. Our image was embedded as looser and a menace to society. So believe me we know what harm it can do and have done and a apology is way over due.
Mayor Bowser marched as well. Let’s see more politicians doing this. Like Murkowski perhaps? (Hint, hint)
She is a coward.
On November 3rd, Vote like your life depends on it, because it does.
Dems, put the razor knife down! Your cup is half fool
@William H Music 2020 cover your ears, the stench is unbearable.
I will crawl to the booths if I have to…..to get this moron out the office
You are so right. Yes vote blue
Stephen Gearring same here.
Those “officers” were set up by Barr at the behest of that tin pot dictator. That’s who.
Defund congress! No more benefits beyond what they achieve for America! No more pensions! Strict two term limit!
Gestapo Barr, the slithery enforcer of the dear leader
@15k DOW 2022How about supreme court limits as well?
Barr should be locked up! And he will be!
most politcians are what is called fake jews and alot of them are actually blackmailed by creeps like epstein.. speaker of house denny hastert was a pedophile.. it needs to s top..
I do not want Trump just to lose the election, I want him and every staff member and politician who lied for him to go to prison. It’s a long line, but that would Make America Great Again.
@Kathy Weis Hi back, Kathy
Young People have the power – elder People have (should have….) the thinkful force.
I am a 50+, but from my point of view empathy/intelligence is ageless.
Donny Donkey has nor or neither of this, his daughter Dinky Donkey also not.
Back to the roots:
Me and my friends hope your People will take a good (s)election in NOV 2020!
The only aim of Trump’s (& his lousy court state) reelection is avoiding jail. No more being President will activate real(!) justice immeditaly. Then he will be nothing more than petfood for what he is/was responsible for.
Hugs from Germany,
Jay
@binjaygen muller hugs to you all as well, its really good to know we still have friends. Trump has tried to isolate us. We will fight on, these protests are picking up alot of steam. And in the end SDNY is going to scoop up trump and his entire ratchet family. He is terrified. Blessings friend.🙏✌
@Kelly Monroe Hi Kelly,
I am/was not always proud of our Government. But in a good Democracy you have the Right to post your opinion in an appropriate way…
Our Government has the CO-19 Crisis from begin under efficient control – numbers prove this. I am proud on this!
There will be an enormously 2nd wave beginning in fall, be prepared.
How economy will handle this – I don’t know…
But – I am really sure we will stay straight.
(Meanwhile your future Ex-President has hided away soon enough to Otherlandisland…)
Stay healthy,
Jay
@Miss.Butterfly for what crimes?😂😂😂😂Trump 2020
As far as Trump and his enablers are concerned, I have to fight hard not to literally hate the dirty bastasrds.
This man is a disgrace!. Here we are fighting for PPE and this man goes into a place (where everybody is wearing a mask) and because of his blatant disregard for others has caused a company to waste materials and day of work. Is this real!
P Bailey watch the vide again in the background on the right there were 2 other men not wearing masks . Orange dumbo stood out but I looked twice 2 others no masks .
@Hazel Jones sounds like they were part of trump’s entourage.
Impossible to dislike a Senator who has an Andrew Solomon book on his book shelf!
To Our Military, “We The People” have great respect for the men and women who protect the country. And they should not be used against their people and country. 🇺🇸🇺🇲🗽🇺🇸🗽🇺🇲✅🌈👏🏻👏🏿👏👏🏼
USA military is unbeatable vote Trump 2020 God Bless America
Bill Barr: “History is written by the winners.” Let’s make sure our history is not written by Trump and his administration. History will NOT be kind to them. Also, Bill Barr is insane.
fat bill bar is an opportunist thrilled with power. Did you see his wife. This encourages him to find excuses to exit his home.
@Ellen Kortman I’m of Scottish descent, still down on crazy Catholics. Any serious deviant, such as a “persuasion pedophile”, has to be a Catholic so they can pay away their sins. There is some serious evil happening in the White House, as usual, but this pandemic has created a previously unthinkable perfect protest storm.
N Kel 😆😆😆
Bill Barr isn’t insane. Bill Barr is saturated in evil and corruption. That’s his problem.

💯💯💯
The crowds were forced out 30 min early. Trump treats humans with the same respect he gives The Law
I want to see someone deck him!
Wow…I see the MSM has suppressed any and all live video uploads, livestreaming ESPECIALLY, about the protests here in the USA! Good way to control the narrative! How clever…clap clap….maybe another jared isralie tactic? Too bad we all can see these games being played out in real time! And we all know this is AGENDA 21…look into it for yourselves if you’re not aware yet.
My question is: “Why do they let Trump in those places?” Everyone else is wearing a mask.
@Kathy Wolf FU cupcake
@Eric Swartzmiller
Not in your lifetime lil boy.
Now keep your panties on and use lotion for your hands. You might grow up someday but not this day.
Not everyone wares
I dispise Donald Trump, but others didnt have masks on either! And in that clip 1 clearly took his off… 😐
Dictator!!! Vote for you life and your family freedom.
Narcissists do not care about anyone other than themselves.
Bunkerboy is a malignant narcissist!
Byebye Bunkerboy ✌
Senators king and Romney are men of integrity.
Angus King is a great American. He’s a true inspiration.
Trump is a danger to everybody arround him. Not just because he does not ware a mask. It is because he is Trump.
Nice photo op by the liberals in African Wardrobe only thing missing was the Bible! Plus taking a knee perfect Hypocrites!
When you learn the difference between “ware” (noun) and “wear” (verb), maybe you can comment.
@Paul The actual hypocrites are Trumpty Dumbty and his cult of moronic duped fools. LMAO
By his actions, he is saying he is better than us poor working stiffs.
Ask betsy devos about her brothers Black water criminals!
