TOTAL Chaos ERUPTS as Trump Judges FALL APART at HEARING!

Total chaos erupting in the United. States Senate as some of Donald Trump's. top nominations were cross-examined by. Democratic senators, and they all fell. apart under oath on live TV. We're. talking about some of Donald Trump's top. picks to fill vacant judicial positions. at the highest level of our circuit. courts, and we're talking about Donald. Trump's pick to fill the Department of. Justice Antitrust Division. lead prosecutorial role. Let me show you.

what went down in the United States. Senate where you had Democratic Senator. Schiff cross-examining. Donald Trump's pick to lead the DOJ. Antitrust Division. His name is Ken. Dube, and Adam Schiff cross-examined. this guy and exposed what a MAGA. bootlicker and what a pathetic. individual this Ken Dube guy is who's. seeking to lead the Department of. Justice Antitrust Division. Here, play. this clip. >> And Mr. Ken Dube, um.

in 2016 when Donald Trump ran against. Hillary Clinton, who won that election? >> Um. Donald Trump was certified as as winner. by the um United States Congress. >> Did he in fact win? >> He was certified as winner. >> Did he in fact win? >> He was certified as winner. >> some doubt about whether he won? >> Well, under our constitutional. structure, it is the states that has. >> Well, my question is do you have some. doubt about the outcome? >> I I have no doubt that the US Congress. certified Donald Trump.

>> No, I don't ask you that question. Do. you have any doubt that Donald Trump won. the election? >> I have no doubt that under our. constitutional structure, >> Uh well, that's that's really not my. question. In 2020, who won the election? >> The United States Congress certified. >> Why is it difficult for you to answer a. simple factual question about who won. presidential elections? When did it. become so difficult to answer such a. simple question. And.

how can we expect you to. rely on the facts when you're evaluating. a case? Mr. Cook, when you're evaluating a. merger, Mr. Kende, how do we expect how. can we. expect you to rely on the facts when you. have such difficulty stating the. obvious? >> Now, one by one, the judicial nominees. of Donald Trump squirmed as they were. cross-examined by Democratic senatorship.

who tied them in knots as Aaron Rupar. puts it by asking them, "So, who won the. 2008 election? Was it Obama or was it. McCain?" All right. Now, let's talk. about the 2016 election. Did Donald. Trump win or did Hillary Clinton win? And the judicial nominees, and we're. talking about some people who were. actually current district court judges. I mean, that guy, Cronin, is a district. court judge. Cook is a district court.

judge. They couldn't answer the most. basic questions. Watch Democratic. senatorship tie these judicial nominee. incompetent mega sycophants into. pretzels here. Play this clip. >> Mr. Cook, in 2008, Barack Obama ran against John. McCain. Who won that election? >> Uh I believe President Obama was sworn. into uh sworn into office, so I'm. certain he won, Senator.

>> Uh and John McCain lost that election? >> Yes, Senator. >> The four years later, Barack Obama ran. against Mitt Romney. Who won that. election? >> Uh President Obama was sworn into into. office, so I'm certain he was elected as. a matter of law, Senator. >> And did Romney lose the election? >> That's the natural. uh. converse of that, yes. >> In 2016, Donald Trump ran against. Hillary Clinton. Who won that election?

>> He was sworn into office, so as a matter. of law, he was elected to that office, Senator. >> So, Donald Trump won that election. >> That would be the natural assumption, yes, Senator. >> it really an assumption you have to. make? Did Donald Trump defeat Hillary Clinton? >> Uh in the Electoral College, he did, yes, Senator. >> Do you have some uncertainty about. whether he won that election? >> No, I'm trying to be precise about what. I'm saying. Yes, he he won in the. Electoral College because and Joe.

>> Joe Biden in 20. Well, um. in the 2020 election. who won between Donald Trump and Joe. Biden? >> Well, Joe Biden was certified by joint. session of Congress, and so as a matter. of law, he was the elected president. >> of fact, who won that election? As a. matter of won that election? >> He was We we we implement the 12th. Amendment, and under that, he was. elected. >> of fact, who won that election? Just as.

a simple matter of fact. Somebody asked. you out on the street, "Who won the election in 2020?" What. would your answer be? Who won? >> I would lost. I would say as a matter of law, he was. elected, Senator. >> And as a matter of fact? >> That that. >> You're somehow separating the law and. facts? As a matter of actual fact, who. won the election in 2020? >> It's a fact that the Electoral College. vote was more for Joe Biden. >> You seem to have real difficulty with. that question. In 2024, Donald Trump ran.

against Kamala Harris. Who won that. election? >> President Trump had more Electoral. College votes, and so the joint session. of Congress certified him as the winner. >> So, Donald Trump won that election. >> As a matter of law, he was elected, Senator. >> And Kamala Harris lost that election. >> That was the converse. >> Then you had Democratic Senator Cory. Booker cross-examining again that guy. Can Dub. Here, play this clip. >> So, let me make this easy. Show us your courage. Show us your independence. Be a man. Be.

your own man right now and stand up and. answer a question, yes or no. A simple yes or no question that shows. right now all of America that you're. your own man. I don't need legalese. I don't [snorts]. need trickery. Yes or no, did Joe Biden. win the 2020 presidential election, yes. or no? >> The United States Congress. >> Uh there you go. Sir, stop.

Federal courts said he did. President's own Attorney General said. yes. President's own cybersecurity director. said yes. Republicans all over THIS COUNTRY SAID. YES. And right now you're not showing me. You. can't even acknowledge a fact that's. been established by the courts, the. president's own Attorney General, by his. own election security officials. Why should we believe that you're going. to stand up to this president when. billions of dollars are at stake and the. fate of mergers are in your hands? This.

is the pivotal question. Can you please. tell me a yes or no answer? Tell me no, I can't give you a yes or no answer if. that's your answer. Yes or no, did. President Biden win the 2020 election? >> The United States Congress certified Joe. Biden. >> are showing cowardice. And that's the question. Are you going. to choose the truth. or Trump? Law or his lies? Are you going. to choose the Constitution. or cowardice?

>> More here from Democratic Senator Schiff. cross-examining Can Dub. Play this clip. >> Mr. Can Dub. uh. When you met with my staff yesterday, you said you stood by your previous. comments. including op-eds you wrote for white. nationalist websites like VDARE. In one of those, in an article titled. Immigration and Three Twitchy Jewish. Nerves, you stated, quote, "Muslim. immigrants and their children seem prone. not only to terrorism but to cultural.

separatism.". Do you stand by that statement? >> Senator, I wrote that article in defense. of Donald Trump's travel ban, which I. thought was essential. >> not my question. My question is you told. my staff you stood by your pri- previous. statements. Do you stand by that one? >> I stand by those articles. They were. defenses against terrorism and. >> So, you you stand by that statement. So, what do you mean that Muslim im-. immigrants. and their children. are prone to terrorism?

>> I wrote those articles. >> I'm not asking you You've already said. you stand by that statement. So, what do. you mean by that? >> I'm trying to explain. Uh I wrote those articles um in defense. of Donald Trump's travel ban, which is. protect us against terrorism. And I. thought that terrorism. was a is continues to be a tremendous. threat to all Americans. >> And and you and you think that Muslim. immigrants and their children are. somehow prone to terrorism?

>> I wrote it in support of the travel ban. >> I'm I'm aware of of why you wrote the. article. My question is, and I would. like an answer, do you stand by your statement that. Muslim immigrants and their children. seem prone to terrorism? >> I stand my by the article I wrote. Um. the travel ban was being. >> Well, then that's that's all I need to. know. I yield back. >> Ever wake up sweaty, freezing, or just. uncomfortable? The temperature in your. bedroom can make or break your sleep.

Cronin is a sitting federal judge. He. already has lifetime tenure. When you're. appointed as an Article 3 judge, you. have lifetime tenure. You can't be fired. unless you are impeached and convicted, okay? So, he's a district court judge. He's. now been appointed to a circuit court. position. He's been elevated and just. watch how pathetic this judge is. This. guy's a sitting judge. Here, play this. clip. >> Judge Cronin, you're already on the. district court. Who won the 2020.

election? >> Senator under the constitutional system. and in particular the 12th Amendment, uh. Joseph Biden received the majority of. electoral college vote and. >> You really have nothing to lose. You're. on the court with a lifetime appointment. and yet you're unwilling to state the. simple fact that Joe Biden won the 2020. election. >> I do have lifetime tenure, Senator. I'm. trying to answer your question as. truthfully and accurately as I can.

>> Miss Mannion, who won. the 2020 election? >> Senator, I agree I agree with the. substance of my co-panelists. >> Mr. Kandu, who won the 2020 election? Let's see if you can do better. >> I agree with my panelists. >> You agree with your. >> The fellow panelists. The The United. States Congress certified Joseph Biden. >> What kind of enforcer are you going to. be if you can't tell the truth to a. committee of Congress?

And don't tell me that you can't answer. because you're general counsel of the. FCC. >> The United States Congress certified. Joseph Biden. That's pretty clear. >> And then Senator Blumenthal grilled. Judge Cook. Again, another sitting. district court judge. How terrifying is. it that this guy is actually a federal. judge and he's seeking an appointment to. become a higher-level federal judge at. the circuit court level. Here, play this. clip.

>> Judge Cook, um. was the Capitol attacked on January 6, 2021? >> Uh. yes, there was a lot of violence and. vandalism at the Capitol and attacks on. law enforcement. So, I I hesitate to use. the word attack just because it it would. be something that would apply to. everybody and I I believe it was an. attack. >> to say what Justice Coney Barrett has. said, what. Judge Kelly has said, Judge Lambert has.

said, federal district court judges and. our Supreme Court Justice that the. capital was attacked. You're unwilling. to say that. >> I I actually don't think I quite. finished my answer, Senator. I don't have a problem with saying some. of those people attacked the capital and. there was vandalism and there there was. violence and they attacked law. enforcement and I I denounce all of. that. So, yes, Senator, I don't I don't. think we're I don't think we disagree. >> Judge Cronin, what's your answer to that.

question? >> Senator, from watching the videos, law. enforcement officers were assaulted. Um. from what I saw, the capital um there. was trespass, there was vandalism. So, I. would stand by um what I observed, which. I think made clear that there were. assaults on law enforcement officers. >> Mr. Manning. >> Senator, I agree um. there was certainly violence against law. enforcement officers, violence against. the capital and I detest all such. violence.

>> Um. Mr. Canter. >> Um I agree with my fellow panelists. It. was a terrible day for America. Um there. was violence against uh law enforcement, which I deplore. There was. vandalism. Um it was a terrible day. >> The violence against. those brave capital. police officers. was because. there was an attack on the capital and.

an attempt to stop [clears throat]. the lawful transfer. of power. For you to. refuse. to say there was an attack on. the capital simply because Donald Trump. characterizes it as. a quote innocent journey is. disrespectful to those police officers. It is also fundamentally disqualifying. for a federal district judge or anyone.

else seeking a position of trust. It is. chilling. that. people. who've been nominated for this. extraordinary. position of responsibility would be. unwilling to acknowledge the truth. >> Oh man, then you had that squirming Can. Dub, again who's seeking to lead the. Department of Justice Antitrust. Division. Watch this. It's absolutely. brutal here. Play this clip.

>> Mr. Can Dub, who won the 2020 election, let's see if you can do better. >> I agree with my panelists. >> You agree with your. >> The fellow panelists, the the United. States Congress certified Joseph Biden. >> What kind of enforcer are you going to. be if you can't tell the truth to a. committee of Congress? And don't tell me that you can't answer. because you're general counsel of the. FCC. >> The United States Congress certified.

Joseph Biden. >> That's. Miss Judge Cook. >> More over here from Senator Blumenthal. cross-examining Judge Cook. Watch for. yourself. Let's play it. >> Uh who won the 2020 election? Uh. >> 2020 uh. Joseph Biden was declared the winner of. the 2020 election by a joint session of. Congress. >> He was declared the winner? >> Yes. >> The people of America declared him the. winner.

Correct? >> Um. there was an election and it proceeded. through the normal procedures outlined. in the Constitution including. >> And he won the popular vote, correct? >> Um. as a judicial nominee it would be. inappropriate to comment on a disputed. political and legal issue. >> as a matter of fact, everybody in. America knows the answer to this. question. Why are you refusing to give. it before this panel under oath? He won the popular vote.

in the 2020 election, correct? >> Uh Senator, as this is a disputed. political uh matter and um there is. ongoing litigation and as a judicial. nominee, I'm not. >> Who won the Who won the Electoral. College in the 2020 election? >> Uh the joint session of Congress. determined that um Joseph Biden won the. Electoral College. >> Trump lose the 2020 election? >> Uh a joint session of Congress. determined that President Trump did not. uh win the Electoral College.

>> Was the Capitol attacked on January. 6th? >> Uh Senator, there was um violence and. vandalism on that day including with. regard to uh law enforcement officers. I. think all of that was inappropriate and. wrong. >> And illegal. >> Uh certainly there were court findings. of. >> Yeah, there were convictions. >> That's correct. >> And people were convicted of attacking. the Capitol, correct? >> Uh I don't know if any court used the. phrase attacking the Capitol. I think. the Supreme Court. >> you use it to describe what happened on.

that day? Everybody in America has seen the. videos. Everybody in America knows that. Capitol police were injured. Some died. Wasn't it an an attack on the Capitol? >> Senator, um. it was an attack on. a number of individuals and that was. wrong and inappropriate. >> Why are you unwilling to say. honestly.

and. candidly. with this committee that the Capitol was. attacked? >> Well, Senator, as a judicial nominee, I'm here to talk about questions of law, not fact. Uh I know the United States. Supreme Court has said. >> No, you're here to talk about what we. asked you. to talk about and questions of fact are. absolutely to the point when we are. asking whether you are willing to state. facts honestly.

and. candidly because it goes to your. integrity and independence. >> And then here you had Senator Dick. Durbin cross-examining Can Dub as well. Let's play this clip. >> Three years ago. in a 2023 interview with a right-wing. Hungarian news magazine. in which you failed initially to. disclose to the committee, you said and. I quote. "The ideological bias of universities, the extensive harassment laws that.

regulate the workplace. and the gradual spread of. self-censorship. are leading to a society in the United. States that is intellectually more. comfortable. duller. more deceitful. and more timid.". Timider was your word than in previous. decades. So, let's clarify your. position. Do you oppose laws that protect against. harassment in the workplace? >> Absolutely not, Senator.

>> Why did you say that any workplace. harassment laws are leading to a society. that is quote more comfortable. duller, more deceitful, and more timid? >> I have spent much of my career as an. academic. And for me, the most important part. about being an academic is the. ability to exchange ideas freely. Sometimes I think we've seen in campuses. um.

situations in which. over. overzealous. bureaucrats and enforcers can chill free. speech and I think that was by impetus. I want to protect free speech on. >> stand by your words? >> Which word, Senator? >> Do you want me to read it a third time? That harassment laws. that regulate the workplace. >> [snorts]. >> make the United States more comfortable, duller, more deceitful, and more timid.

than in the previous decades. >> I stand by my words because I believe in. free speech. >> Thank you, Miss Madam Chair. >> Man, that can do guys a dangerous weird. dude, huh? A dang Look, that guy was a. dangerous weirdo, in my opinion. In any event, hit subscribe. Let's get. to 7 million subscribers. We appreciate. you for watching.
