CNN's Jim Acosta asks Chad Wolf, former President Donald Trump's acting Department of Homeland Security secretary, about Trump's actions during the insurrection and whether he believes if President Joe Biden won the 2020 presidential election. #jimacosta #ChadWolf #cnnnewsroom
never trust a person that cant answer a “yes or no” question
In fairness, answering ’yes’ or ‘no’ doesn’t always tell the full story. Take the question “Have you stopped beating your wife?”. If you answer ‘yes’ it implies you used to beat your wife, but have since quit. If you answer ‘no’, it implies your are currently beating your wife. If you never beat her or aren’t even married, then neither answer is truthful.
@Jason McDaniel well Jason this is true but it should work on both sides of the aisle the same
@Rn Kn You can ALWAYS say “YES, However ….” Then answer short, succinctly, and factual, BUT, that is NEVER the MO for trumpets, on media.
@William Motsko It was a genuine question. When she was debating Mike Pence and he asked her about packing the court, she said a lot of things but nothing that even came close to yes or no.
This man is highly trained at disinformation. It is very sad to see criminality at this level of law enforcement.

@Matthew Engle Never said that… I just couldn’t listen anymore…end of story.
I can tell he is lying from the way he keeps waving his hands.
He’s incredibly… _smooth,_ isn’t he? 🧐
It’s absolutely frightening to think this guy was head of DHS. Unbelievable.
@Cryst C O nothing says beta more than a guy making threats in YouTube comments.

For those who don’t remember, this man was the unlawfully and unconstitutionally appointed acting Department of Homeland Security secretary under Trump. This is the guy who in July 2020 sent 100 federal agents to Portland, Oregon dressed in camouflage and tactical gear in unmarked vehicles who didn’t identify themselves as law enforcement while they were arresting protesters. In September of 2020, a whistleblower accused him of ordering staff to stop reporting on threats from Russia. Just a little trip down memory lane for those who have forgotten who he is.
@True Knight what’s so funny?
@Voltaire You just contradicted yourself: if they have no jurisdiction, how can they provide information?
@Chris Osborne You would if you actually watched the video.
How is it that literally everyone in the US knew there was a threat to the Vice-Pres. but the Secretary of homeland security didn’t know?
Right you are deny, deny, and deflect it ain’t my office’s problem smh.
He was in on it!!!!
It’s just weird that everyone that has access to YouTube knew what was up but Trump’s Homeland Security had 0 clue. 🤔
“I’m not sure who won World War II. I’m researching it, though.” — Chad Wolf
It was the New England Patriots – that’s who! 😀😀
BWAH!
WOW this guy hasn’t changed one bit, after listening to his nonsense my heart is racing. how can we not feel doomed when him and others like him want back in power
“I don’t know nothing.” I am surprised that men like him were in the government. Do people smirk and mislead at the same time?
Smooth, just like the D*V*l
Should have made Wolf go into detail and cite where the info is coming from in the process and not allow the “people say” justification .. make him lay his cards on the table
The way these firm believers DODGE questions is ridiculous! He said you asked the question & I’m answering. No sir, you are doing everything but providing a direct answer!
We’re going to have to have a new “believes in reality” test before people are allowed in Homeland security.
This guy blew his credibility pretty quickly in this interview.
Extraordinary quickly
@David Eby Speaking of people who blew their credibility pretty quickly…
“You can put lipstick on a pig, but it’s still a pig”. Best political quote ever. This is a perfect example. Clean cut, articulate guy in a suit – is no different than crazy, sloppy Steve Bannon. If they look respectable, it’s easier for them to get people to believe their BS.
And yet, somehow, he makes Steve Bannon look like the sane one…..
Mostly he’s articulate with his answers because they’re clearly (& carefully) rehearsed.
Don’t know about lipstick but I’m beginning to wonder if this guy wears fish-net stockings.
Exactly, that is why this interview upsets me so much.
That’s odd, everyone in the Country was aware that VP Pence’s life was threatened but the acting Secretary of Homeland Security was not aware or informed of that??? Yeah, right?
“Mike who?”
@Heather11268 Interesting, seems that all trump stooges think alike.
I’m in a northern town in England and I knew!! 🤷♀️🙄
I still say government officials in high office, should be liable for lying and/or promoting such; it should be ILLEGAL for them to KNOWINGLY LIE in their public or official capacity.
@Lawrence Haley You can’t prove
Ronald Reagan vetoed the Fairness Doctrine in 86 or 87 and this is where we are today .
My head is exploding right now! Never, never, never put this man in front of a camera again!! He was the Acting Secretary over the entire department of Homeland Security and has no idea how all of the text messages were deleted?! Fool, that happened under YOUR watch!! I can’t even with these people! 😡
He knows how all those text messages were deleted. After watching him dance like that, I have no doubt he deleted them – or used an encrypted messaging app that won’t let anyone else view them when examining the phone.

I’m gonna say what we’re all thinking… Hillary Clinton was absolutely, dead-on balls accurate when she said that Trump supporters are deplorable. This guy is the perfect example of that.
She also WON in 2016.

“I know NOTHING!”
Thank you, Sargeant Schultz. You can resume the position behind trump.
But such great hair!
@Richard Gleaves Haha! All he needs is the little mustache.
“He mentions peacefully—doing that peacefully—several times during that speech.”
Trump said this exactly one time in the early part of an 11,000 word speech.
Last fight https://youtu.be/u244gu7o5ys
Right… and I’m surprised Acosta didn’t come back with “How do you ‘fight like hell’ peacefully?”
Exactly what he said. “I DON’T HAVE ANY OF THAT EVIDENCE “
