JUST IN: Josh Hawley Blocks Brian Schatz Bid To Confirm Key Military Nominee, Then Schatz Responds 

i think bush sent us to afgan.

Military is better without leadership lol

If this clown is having a hard time with Senator Hawley, just wait, we just elected our Attorney General as Missouri's second Senator, Eric Schmidt. You know the lawsuits that have been filed against biden over the border? Thank Eric Schmidt for leading the fight. The Show Me State.... about to SHOW THE CLOWNS!

Totally AGREE !!!!

How so! You need to watch the rebuttals all the way.... Brian Schatz had all of his facts right.

@@139cookie Yeah, like the fact "he can't agree to" take a vote on it.

I agree 💯👍.

SPOT ON SEN.HAWLEY.

By take note, you mean, grow balls right???

You have got to be kidding - he showed his true unAmerican stripe running away like he did - not worthy

@@robertdove807 why, because he doesn't agree with YOUR perspective. Just like every damn Demoncrat... anytime its something you don't like...its bad. You want the Republicans to be fair but you all can't. Damn, half of you dont even know what a woman is and expect us to listen to you...GTFO

He's terrible 😆

He is a coward. Regardless of one's political opinions, I can't see how anyone could admire him.

@@markkozlowski3674 it's his weird diatribe on video games, porn and his anti women stance that gets me. Never take work advice from someone who's never swung a hammer. Got sent to 3 ivy league schools by his rich banker daddy. Doesn't even live in Missouri.

@@6j6666 At least we know that his January 6th antics mean that he will never achieve his burning ambition to be president.

@@6j6666he’s terrible at lying. But you dems are good at it lol

He wasn't standing firm on January 6. 2021. He ran like a coward.

@@markkozlowski3674 should he have been like Mike Tyson and fought all those Patriots?? Seems outnumbered so your reply makes no sense...I've noticed your putting that nonsense reply to almost everyones comments ..lol..

@@Ohiocreekarrowheads You are confused. Mr. Hawley showed his support for the treasonous mob -- they were anything but patriots -- and then ran when things got hot.

I want answers! Why can't you agree to find out what went wrong! Why didn't everybody want answers!

Libya too. 911, Pearl Harbor, USS Liberty etc.

No, Josh Hawley is just an A$$HOLE. He should be preparing for the Jan. 6th Committee to recommend to the DOJ he be charged for his role in Trump's failed COUP. Josh may not be eligible to run again when the 14th Amendment is enforced in his case. If Republican really investigate the Afghanistan withdraw, all they will find is that their Cheeto Messiah sent Mike Pompeo to Doha, Qatar in Jan 2020 to sign America's first ever surrender to a foreign enemy, agreeing to leave in April 2021 and to release all Taliban prisoners. The prisoner release lead to the Taliban retaking control over every village, town, and city before the election in 2020. Then Trump slow walked the transition to the Biden administration, leaving them holding the bag Trump set them up with when he surrendered.

How so?? Two wrongs never make a right!

It's funny that you use the word "Run" That describes Hawley perfectly. He was Jim Fixx on Jan 6th

@@202mahina it's not wrong to demand accountability for what happened in Afghanistan. I'm Washington you use whatever tools you have at your disposal. If the Dems investigated their fuck ups then this wouldn't be necessary. But it is necessary. What do you want him to tell that man? I know your son died and more than likely it didn't have to happen. But the Dems are in power so I can't get you any answers... No, senator Hawley is absolutely right.

@@davebarton6824 the withdraw from Afghanistan was conditional. Conditions that the Taliban never met. So the deal was a no go. Biden and his Pentagon fucked that up and there is no arguing that really.

I wish we had you for a Senitor . 50 th State need HELP ! 80 years one party rule. Deep deep st aTe👁

@@bobstine1874 Hopefull more people will vote red this upcoming election

wrong

@@dannyzappin8142 You don't explain why. "Wrong" could just be your under-informed opinion.

@@Medieval1-1 Yep and the funniest thing is that they act like ANY of these "nominees" make any significant change where DOD is concerned. Anyone who has spent more than a month in the military knows that the majority of these people are usually the ones who got promoted because of being screwups.

Thank you for your service sir!

Another veteran here in full agreement with the OP. Military services seem to be very top heavy with officers and bureaucrats. The process we see here is known as Congressional oversight. Just because one party is in control doesn’t mean that there’s a rubber stamp for every nominee.

@Tim Smith That's by design as per obama and Co.

@@knine8154 Obama has nothing to do with it. It's like that with any administration. Most of the "higher-ups" get nominated to pursue whatever the hot topic is at the time. Very few good leaders and decision makers make it to those positions. Hence why most of the positions are filled with bloat.

And the navy seal that did that said he was used by the media.And now regrets his transition. Used???

Jesus Christ help nk us please and please come quickly. Anen

Crunch point is coming. As an European here where we've been allowed to be infested with cockroaches, it's difficult to think that we have such a strong ally 'helping' us from being infested with cockroaches.

Makes sense, running away like a child is really only possible with working vertebrae

He's a spineless worm

Are you out of your mind? He ran like a coward on January 6, 2021.

Theres a Few, just a handfull the rest need to be voted OUT!!!

@@cbr274 should he have fought them?? Wouldn't he have been outnumbered???? Your reply makes no sense..one man against all those Patriots?? Your reply has no thought behind it 😂

Yes, he is holding up something totally unrelated because he is asking for an investigation which Schatz has no way of providing.

It's funny, thousands of dead American soldiers in Afghanistan under GWB but you don't want any investigation of that, but when 13 die in our withdrawal that is grounds for an investigation. Got it.

​@@gregmiller1663Yeah... Democrat's hate being held accountable for their own destructive policies that cost people their lives. According to Democrat's, American Patriot lives only matter when the Democrat's can benefit from their deaths. But passing nominees who will support the Democrat's destructive policies is far more important than all the lives lost, or holding those responsible accountable for those lives lost.

Naw. I'm a Missourian and we all think he suuuucks

Deri, Bravo!

josh is not a patriot nor a decent man but miraculously he got this one right

So sorry!

@@ginachapman2044 Thank you.

Runner? From what? What war has been waged yet? If there's a war declared....we'll see who's really running.

Really? Sarcasm?

@@mylesg802 Absolutely. No sarcasm at all. What this administration did to those 13 Marines and Americans left behind in Afghanistan was a crime. The Biden regime never took full responsibility for the debacle they caused in that awful route. The top brass to include Austen and Miley swept the memory of these Marines under the rug and attempted to bury them in the ash heap of history. In short, the White House and Senator Schatz is demanding this whole jugscrew be forgotten. Hawley has a responsibility to keep the memory of these Marines alive and to have answers as to why their sacrifice was in vane. If this is one power Senator Hawley has to keep this question burning, good! You haven’t lost anyone in combat and it shows. The Navy can have an interim comptroller. But until that time, this failure of leadership must be answered.

You mean, like cheerleading for the insurrection?? You liked that??

What insurrection please provide facts . You wouldn't know what an insurrection was it it landed in your lap and wiggled . Wake up.

No he didn't. If anything, he made Hawley look like a fool again. Just like when they show him running through the hall

No we cant

He wasn't standing on January 6, 2021. He ran like a coward.

@The Bear Give me a break. He riled up the mob, and then ran when things got hot. Just like Trump and Giuliani. Rudy talked about "trial by combat". Trump said "I will walk with you". But when the march on the Capitol began, they both turned on their heels, and went back to the White House to watch the riot on television.

Politicians have been failing to do their actual jobs for so long that when one comes along who actually does it sticks out like a blind cobbler's thumb.

He doesn’t pull punches, he runs from it but pretends to do so with his infamous air fist as he’s running through the halls of the capital.

@@sirrobinofloxley7156 Hopefully that to happen soon with the fascist radical right wing, we haven’t seen it yet !

Why would we do that? Lol

He's a traitor

@@PokeMaster03 Can you explain why Senator Hawley is a traitor?

@@kb223nc he took part in the January 6 insurrection.

Hawley is Trump 's man working to destroy US Democracy and greatness 😡😠

@Chris Terry How old are you, twelve?

I always thought we were the good guys.

As we thank you also, sir.

Sure you are.

Amen 100% agree

I did hear from the one who stated this was the best president we have had and how successful this was. Again how much money did she make???

that someone is called the taliban and joe biden. at least theyre not in iran where 16000 protesters have been sentenced to death by their government

Yes, the Afghanistans murdered countless others and their army quit

We had Americans left behind. Blinky kept them from leaving Afghanistan.

he is saying" I am a big baby who wants to see the country fail".

@@chiprenneryepp. About sums up everything shatz ever says.

Hawley ran at the capitol from his TRAITOR buddies attacking CAPITOL 🏃

I've never understood why, since everyone at the top including the Administration and senior military officials, knew long beforehand that we would be leaving....why wasn't a concise and well conceived plan put in place to start the evacuation process long before the DAY OF DEPARTURE??!!

@@MrLarrybyrne it was intentional. Trump had made a peace agreement that the Taliban, Afghan government, and ISAF all agreed on. The pull out was supposed to be completed on May 1st 2020.but Biden said no and wanted Sept 11th pull out day. This pissed the Taliban off and they cut off all negotiations.

@@MrLarrybyrne anything trump did was bad, no matter what. Another example was insulin, trumped signed an executive order (EO) capping insulting and Biden immediately overturns it with his own EO. Then later brings it back with another EO and says he fixed it.

Nope😎

That coward sure didn't stand his ground on January 6, 2021.

If this clown is having a hard time with Senator Hawley, just wait, we just elected our Attorney General as Missouri's second Senator, Eric Schmidt. You know the lawsuits that have been filed against biden over the border? Thank Eric Schmidt for leading the fight. The Show Me State.... about to SHOW THE CLOWNS!

@@markkozlowski3674 It’s not in the job description for any Senator to secure a Federal building. I believe that was Capitol police’s job.

@@markkozlowski3674 how many polocks does it take to screw up a comment???

@@markkozlowski3674 Shut Up…. Difference between republicans and Dems is that hawley and every other person on the right condemned the Jan 6 actions. Especially the actions of Nancy Pelosi denying trumps request for national guard as extra security… Dems still trying to squeak their dumb asses around the blm riots that costed billions in damages, ruined thousands of lives & livelihoods, and got several cops n citizens injured and several others murdered…. Both tragedies, but one of those tragedies were much worse… So again, stfu! Ppl were pissed that there was election interference and omg, what do ya know, the FBI was using big tech and msm to tip the scale just like we all thought. 🤔 gtfoh

Those two senator's are an embarrassment to the people of Hawaii. And I refused to vote for any Democrat from Hawaii.

Exactly. That woman is liberal left wing hack

We are weak and broke. China owns a lot of that debt. Petro dollar is being dumped. BRICS will rule

and because of Trump, the USA been seen unreliable for the last 6 years...and in the 4 years of Trump, we just ignored the USA.... Banana Republic...

You mean like when we trade Putins favorite arms dealer for a pot smoker? Why does Joe like Putin so much? I think they conspired to steal the election! Impeach him!!!!

what do you mean by that exactly?

You're in a cult

How can someone authorize something they have no authority to authorize? You don't see the smoke in mirrors here?

He did not offer a compromise. He asked for a vote on his deal as a precondition ....

That’s called a compromise.

@@johnmurphy5106 It is isn't if he is getting what he wants totally FIRST... with no guarantee that Hawley (remember him on the 6th when he helped tourists visit) delivers. Besides if the other party does not have the power to commit or deliver upon a specific cause of action (he does not) and Hawley knows it then offering it was a quid pro quo is utterly infeasible,

Compromise does not mean that there are two sides and both sides just throw up their hands and agree. That is just retreating and admitting defeat and that is not the definition of ‘ compromising’.

Yeah "the taxpayer is robbed of a Comptroller" - We're robbed on millions & millions of dollars of abandoned military equipment, and soldiers lives.

Hawley didn't speak for the people, he spoke for a SMALL minority of people.

@@kevinwatters358 yeah Senator Hawley only speaks for 75% of Americans; the same 75% who think the Biden regime is taking the country in the wrong direction.

@@07laines07 75% ROFLMAO you are funny. If 75% of the country is as you stated the red wave would of happened. You all live in a bubble of alternate facts. I know many many Dems that think the country is going in the wrong direction, but it has NOTHING to do with Biden and EVERYTHING to do with Republicans and how they want to STIFLE rights.

Why does Shatz take the stance of non compliance to the reasonable request of having a vote for the Select Committee? thanks, and yes the parents do deserve their right to know what happened to their beloved offspring.

@@sirrobinofloxley7156 Because he is part of the COVER UP. The Biden administration doesn't want anyone to realize how horrifically they botched this withdrawal and how cowardly and weak are the military leaders who went along with it when Biden over rode their advice. Never forget that MOST of the high level military leaders at the Pentagon are career politicians and bureaucrats NOT true warriors and they will happily sacrifice the lives of brave soldiers to advance their own careers. Finally, NEVER FORGET that it was BIDEN THAT IGNORED THE RECOMMENDATION OF HIS TOP ADVISERS AND ORDERED THE ABRUPT AND POORLY PLANNED WITHDRAWAL THAT EVEN THE THE CHAIRMAN OF THE JOINT CHIEFS OF STAFF CALLED "A STRATEGIC FAILURE." Biden has the blood of those 13 dead marines on HIS HANDS.

@@worlddevourer7740 This what east me, why aren't whoever is running the meeting calling for the vote anyhow, regardless of what shatz spits? Surely it's going against the Commerce Clause in the US Constitution.

The TRUTH is that a REALLY heavy collar IE The President (no one else could make such a hasty order) ignored logic and tried to get a political win that backfired, and costed lives.

The truth, sadly, is that those servicemen and civilians were killed when a suicide bomber blended into the crowd of people looking to flee the country with our military, within the time constraints of a deadline agreed to by Trump.

remember what happened in Benghazi? Trey Gowdy questioned to Hillary Clinton who the secretary of the state was then, she completely ignored the importance that we lost four innocent American heroes including the ambassador. During the hearing she said, " So four people were killed, what does it make a difference how they were killed?" Many of her staff ignored the subpoena.

This is going to be over and there will be no more queen in charge! The person she recomended is not that good he is an activist and because the House will no longer be in dems things will not be so easy for him either or abc

I hope there is a surprise for abc, she is fired! same goes for rachid. Maybe we will again have persons who care about the US people, not just their specific base

Sounds incriminating at best.

Do you mean the one where trump gave the Taliban everything they wanted just before he left office?

Some had bone spurs.

@@freeman960I do too. I have em in my spine and heels, saying they suck would be a understatement.

Are you ok with how he is used here?

@@NavySeal2k to me, only the family of LCpl Schmitz can answer that question.

@@NavySeal2k considering the Marines father asked him to, and myself being a 0311 Marine, I approve of how Hawley went about this

Here comes the January 6th mob!! Run, Hawley, run!!!
