*Gym Jordan:* Was that video showing paramilitaries shooting citizens filmed in America or Venezuela?
*Jerry Nadler:* And that’s the point. 🎤 Drop
Logan McLean , I repeat – you have no idea what Far Left looks like. AOC (using your example) is a progressive and that is so very removed from far left.
You need to take your blinkers off and do some research
C&B Jones
Do you actually read the policies she proposes. I say far left instead of radical left. Her ideas are radical. Like you’ve never seen green new deal
Logan, Logan, Logan. You assume I’m in the USA

The Republican Party is the Machiavellian Party. “The ends justify the means.”
There is no lie or no strategy that is too low for them to use.

@Leticia Gorgona Desparate nationalist traitors know their grifter god is prison bound.
Keith Mc, No, it’s more like this…
Michael Obama: “They go low, we go ghetto.”
Gym Jordan is a weasel.
I see Jordan as more of a Squid than a Weasel. Weasels aren’t slimy.🤔
The weasels are the Traitor Thugs in Office.
A maggot. Weasels have character. Jordan is more something you would scrape off the sole of your shoe.
@J If only the US had any. They might have assassinated Trump and saved us all this trouble. If the left was what you idiots say it is Trump would already be lynched.
#RepJimSock
I agree that we need the full picture. Can you believe some people get their reporting from Facebook?
Leticia Gorgona Troll elsewhere, Comrade.
Truly. It’s hard to believe.
How many of them are f peaceful 10% arrest all of them they need to work i talk alot of people that wish they had a job because of all this they can’t find a job end this f thugs are destroying the contry
And they get spin not news from Fox fake
@Lynda Liephatdt wake up
Conservatives: “We need our guns in case the government becomes tyrannical!”
Government: *becomes tyrannical*
Conservatives: “Yeah! Go government! Throw those protestors into unmarked vans! Pepper spray vets and moms! Arrest journalists! We love the government!”
@srgreeniii American history is the one subject that I didn’t fail for your information. And nowhere did they ever call them terrorists. Now they may have in England which you probably reside right now but who gives fk what the English think anyways.
@David Blair That might make sense to an Englishmen but an American doesn’t know what the fk that is.
@Tanner 101 Are you really that uneducated that you don’t know the the English sympathizers in the revolution were called tories?
The same word designates a political party in the UK now, and they are still conservatives.
Isn’t it insane?! It was always the right wing media saying that it was the Democrats that want to turn us into a Police State. Now THEY are responsible for it!!
Tarquin Bright since when do “Federal Police” guard a Federal building by walking through streets blindly shooting tear gas and rubber bullets?!
Protesting against injustice is not a crime! Republicans, before teaching us about the constitution, please wear a mask!
@Pokarot SPANISH FLU 1918 COMPARED TO NOW SICK STAYED HOME HEALTHY WORKED DEATH COUNT NUMBERS WRONG AND I DONT BELIEVE YOU
@Paul Reveres Horse LIBERTY Of course you don’t believe me, I’m not a great source of trustworthy information for you, my name isn’t Karen from facebook and I haven’t mentioned how this could all be solved by stopping 5g and using essential oils. Good luck in lala-land captain capslock.
@Pokarot YES 5G WAKING UP TO THE DESTRUCTION OF AMERICA AND NAME CALLING
@Gary Campbell yeah he was a while supremist using a hammer to lootcand known as the umbrella man hired by Trump’s mob and then he blames it on antifa!!! Get the facts straight instead of instilling violence. Trump wants to provoke fear and dictatorship on us Americans and this is make America great again???!!! Wake up and vote in November.
@Jim Miller : I witnessed your “instilling violence” in downtown Indianapolis and the girl who was shot for yelling out “All lives matter”. AND, what would you do in those cities who have a mayor that tells their own police to back off and will not call in their own states national guard ? Now, in Portland the wanting to burn a federal courthouse ?
The 2nd amendment states that a well armed civilian militia is necessary to protect civilians from a tyrannical government. Well, here’s your tyrannical government, why aren’t you stepping forward? 🤔
If your going to quote the contitution and bill of rights please dont misquote it.
A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed. https://constitution.congress.gov/constitution/amendment-2/
@Kevin McNeil Whatever you say Tovarich
@J Trump is attacking the cities you ignorant racist.
@Mick E I’m black…
@Pokarot Where did they call for a delay? Nowhere. Context is king.
Gym Jordan didn’t have the video cut to 20 seconds to misrepresent the context. His attention span and ability to digest information comes in short 20 second bursts. At 30 seconds you’ve lost him and have to start over.

@Raging Monk
I don’t see any MAGA hats at any of these riots… Just saying!
@Mo Sa You are so ignorant that you can watch a video explaining it AND STILL DON’T PHCKING UNDERSTAND. 10 to one says you are Republican.
Jym Jordan is a disgrace even to other REPUBLICANS !!
@Logan McLean Gym Jordan has never called a Democrat out on insanity. He has had some racist rants. Maybe that’s what you like.
Person, woman, man, criminal, tv
@ILHAN OMAR said: COPS ARE CANCER No he didn’t. He was standing in front of a fire, but he never said that was peaceful. Troll
Putin, Trump, Hookers, Camera, Photos
@Colin Cleveland Failing, corruption, bankruptcy, putin, prison
@ILHAN OMAR said: COPS ARE CANCER troll go & get your potato from your boss putin.
when will msnbc tell us that ilhan omar said: ‘ COPS ARE CANCER’ ???
brilliantly explained, ty mr velshi!
@Helen Shortabsolutely. they, together with white supremacists, have been infiltrating protests for the express purpose of creating chaos. ‘umbrella man’ has finally been identified as a member of the hells angels motorcycle gang. if not for that close-up photo of his face there would still be no id. the white nationalists were recruiting from their members on their online boards (and likely many other ways, this was just one of the ways that was discovered) for people to do just that, to incite riots. they were even told how to dress and what to take along. funny how the feds have been slow to id any of them. i expect many more will be identified before too long.
@Robertwhy am i not surprised that you were tested… and sure you were… seek therapy and treatment.
@Mox Avengergo back to sleep little one.
@mary jones MSNBC is melting your mind.
@mary jones Bless your heart. Mental/psychological screening and evaluation is required to be an armed bodyguard. I’m sorry but you are an insufferable fool. Go ahead and have the last word. Go ahead.
“The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing.”
WATCH ⏪PEACEFUL PROTESTS IN GERMANY ; BY WEARING MASKS ..
THE MASKS IS BAD ….
THE MAINSTREAN MEDIA ⏩LIE
Tarquin Bright republicans are the ones responsible the present chaos in America
Is that a Jewish Proverb?
@Monsieur LaFlamme how do you work that out? Democrats support the “peaceful protesters” who are upset that in a Democrats area a police officer killed someone. If there is systemic racism then President Trump inherited it from the Democrats.
@Jeffrey Kaufmann you always been a fckhead or what.?
We should just call it the “trump zombie apocalypse” – he LOVES to put his name on things.
RR step one to becoming a liberal. Lose all sense of objectivity.
@ILHAN OMAR said: COPS ARE CANCER How many people does it take to set a fire? *1*. Meaning the rest of the protesters didn’t have to have anything to do with it, or even agree with it, but you’re viewing everyone there as equally guilty. People use protests as opportunities to to either get away with something because of all the confusion, or as has been proven in other states, far right agitators have started violence/arson in the hopes of framing the protesters for it. Not everything is so simple.
@Hakura Chii well how do you know that only 1 person did? maybe it was 1, maybe 10, maybe 40, dosen’t matter, because the shop owner lost it all so that cannot be called peaceful in any way. I am sure the shop owner and his employees will vote for trump now, no thanks to this clown
Biden zombie followers – being enabled by these Dem and Leftist Governors, Mayors, DAs, and Councilmembers!!
Cuz it usually ends up being worth a billion dollars lmao. Obama couldn’t run a lemonade stand
THESE SAME REPUBLICANS THAT CRY ABOUT “FAKE NEWS” ARE MAKING IT THEMSELVES AND BRINGING IT TO CONGRESS
YES! And they all need to be voted out!
The CULT surrounding, supporting and enabling #AgentTang needs to GO!
Since they cannot separate themselves from AgentTang, Let’s make sure they ALL lose their seats!

Vote Trump
Its should be obvious who’s starting all the fires. They create misinformation and use it to there advantage.
@Barbara Eaton <-- My favorite jeannie!
trump is behind this
The weenies who start the fires are the same weenies breaking windows with their skateboards. YOU are the propagandist.
@Wesley C. Throwing protestors into unmarked vans by unmarked police would like a word with you
@Crazyeights The “throwing protesters” or the “unmarked police” would like a word… can’t wait.
When you don’t stand for something you likely will fall for anything.
page lewis yes when you stand for burnin, looting, murder of women and children you should be proud of yourself
@Stone Men I think you meant to send that to Rick James 5678🤔
@hugh g rection Nope…….she said it was “white supremacists”….
@Brenda Heeligan Police and black people? You know all police related fatalities have been tracked for decades right? More white people are killed by police every year. In fact, you have a greater chance statistically of dying from police if you’re a white male. Most of those killed had weapons or were resisting violently. Tell me you knew this….lol. What are these riots really about again?
@Brenda Heeligan justice wow killing innocent people f thugs
Didn’t see very many peaceful protestors. Were they just having a weenie roast?
You can’t even report “peaceful” protests honestly- you’ve called violent protests peaceful
As a matter of fact criminal charges should be laid against Trump and his administration for betraying American and Human Right.
It’s the POLICE that escalate the situation into chaos.. especially these “Federal Police” that Trump is sending around. Show the videos of “terrorist and anarchist activity” BEFORE the antagonisers show up!! There is none!!
