Sorry if this was already shared, I just joined recently. But holy shit. See Video Here
It reminds me of the time a senator repeatedly accused the Tiktok CEO if being Chinese while he repeatedly told him he's Singaporean. American politicians are a bunch of racist clowns.
~~Same Senator!~~
I was wrong
I thought the senator from the other time was Tom Cotton?
You’re totally right. Kennedy is the one that said “What does yada yada yada mean?” in the tiktok hearings.
Sen. Kennedy confirmed not a Seinfeld watcher
Yeah it was
LMFAO
A hearing into hate crimes? The call is coming from inside the house?
:padme-1: We're investigating the sudden rise in hate crimes against Asian-Americans, right?
:anakin-1:
:padme-2: ...we're investigating the sudden rise in hate crimes against Asian-Americans, right?
this is the senate actually 
[...] so, no, sir.
you can't bring yourself to say no, can you?
😂
deeply unserious country
Do YoU sUpPoRt UnWrA? dO yOu SuPpOrt HAM ASS?
I was very clear in my support for UNWRA.
UNRWA*
He should hide his head in a guillotine
People are saying she didn’t answer the question I can’t take it anymore.
And in bad country every official must vocally condemn the enemy before giving a statement, even if it has nothing to do with the current meeting.
She should have refused to answer it tbh.
That comment section was the dumbest thing I’ve seen in weeks. Like holy shit that was worse than Facebook comments. I don’t know how these people manage to keep themselves fed and bathed.
I found a YouTube link in your comment. Here are links to the same video on alternative frontends that protect your privacy:
it was a hate crimes hearing so 
thought he would let everyone hear some hate crimes
Literally the guy in the story right? I mean that picture is literally him?
if i remember rightly someone put all of the sitting democrats 
and all the republicans into an algorithm that fused all the faces together and shat out those two monstrosities. so yes, it is partly him 
There needs to be a big post with the story behind most of these emojis
Noooooooooo~oooooooooo~ that knowledge is only for the ancient ones to know and to spread to the young ones
the-democrat is just John Edwards with a bigger forehead. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:John_Edwards,_official_Senate_photo_portrait.jpg
Blud said "nuh-uh" to wearing the mask, we mask off today.
Do you condemn Ham Ass?
no 
Is that poop coming from his chin 
holy fuck
death to America
"Do you support Hamas?"
"I do not support Hamas."
"WHY CAN'T YOU SAY THAT YOU DON'T SUPPORT HAMAS?!?!?!"
I hope that he is given the same treatment that the IOF has given so many Palestinians when the revolution comes.
I understand why they don’t do it but I really want to see people start responding to that shit with “Yes, I support Hamas in their efforts to protect Gaza from Israel. Hamas has a right to defend itself.”
Honestly, I think condemning Hamas in these situations is a mistake. It starts you on the back foot, accepting their framing of the situation. No, I do not condemn Hamas, or their actions on October 7th, for the same reason I would not condemn the Warsaw Ghetto Uprising.
You are not wrong and I agree 100%. It doesn't seem to change things with regards to the fascists anyway.
Exactly. No matter how many times you say, “No, I don’t support Hamas” they hear yes anyway, they don’t accept no as an answer, so condemning Hamas is just giving the fash more ammo.
Jesus Christ
Should've asked his cracker ass if he supports the KKK and the Nazi Party.
He wouldn't be able to bring himself to say No.
Aw, too shame she was too shocked to remember this.
People will look you in the eye and tell you there's no racism or misogyny in the US, but one of 50 people who sculpts the laws and policy that affect the world is allowed to put both on display on national television with no consequences.
I think maybe they'll find his head hidden in a bag??? Maybe???
wishing him a very Andrew Myrick situation
Also America 'they hate us for our freedom'
