All I want to know is if he’s challenged anyone to a fight yet.
The man is a literal fucking moron. He might be the dumbest human being to ever sit in front of a congressional confirmation hearing. Like, everyone in this administration is a fucking idiot but they have *some* modicum of cleverness in their evil. This guy might actually have brain damage. Like… I can’t stress how staggeringly unintelligent he is.
Is this the congressman that was famously pictured cowering like a frightened bunny rabbit on J6, before defecting to and cheering the insurrectionists?
What an embarrassment.
These people are destroying your democracy and rule of law.
This whole thing is like shitting your pants and then changing your shirt
rand paul coming out strong
Damn! Did I miss something good by Rand Paul?
Is the guy sitting behind Markwayne the same guy he challenged to a fight during a Senate hearing (president of the Teamsters)?
mullin coming out hot – could not tolerate being called a liar
here come the fake tears
Only the victor of thunderdome may advance to the position. Prepare yourself.
this is SOO cringe.
Rand Paul looks shaken by Mullins comments about him
Rand Paul does not like this guy. Finally something we agree on!
Rand Paul: “you have no impulse control”
hahaha
I’m so tired of garbage human beings putting on a play for these hearings. This man is shit, he cheers on political violence, he’s hateful, he’s angry, he’s stupid. Why, why do we want people like this having control over anything in this country? I just don’t get how people are ok with morons taking over the world. Don’t you want to feel like the people in charge are smarter than you, not dumber than you? How do these people give you security and peace? This guy is one sentence away from screaming his face red.
Oklahoma not sending its brightest.
Oh damn, does Rand have enough friends who are worried about midterms to make this nomination fail?
I love it when the children fight
Ma’am, can you sit the fuck down
The 10% of the time that Rand Paul is on point and on the right side, he hits HARD.
Oh right, Mullin is THAT guy lol
What a fucking dork.
Don’t forget the image of this guy cowering during the “peaceful” January 6 demonstration
Haha
They are playing the video where he tried to physically assault a witness during a congressional hearing
A highlight reel of him being a belligerent asshole to open up.
Maybe one of the Democrats can pull up a picture of him cowering inside the Capitol on January 6.
Again, how you resolved your emotional outburst after the fact means nothing. The fact you had an emotional outburst, you, as a grown man, couldn’t control your emotions is the problem, not how you PRed after the fact.
Character assassination? Dude, what do you this hearing is meant for?
Your politics are more riveting and theatrical than most popular TV shows.
If only it weren’t so fucking terrifying.
war smells bad, everyone
HAHA
“There is a legal precedent for dueling to settle disputes” – Markwayne Mullin
“Not for over 170 years…..you realize that, right?” – Rand Paul
Markwayne is not only the least qualified appointee in history, he’s the most unhinged
Credit where it’s due, he’s showing more decorum than Pam Bondi did.
