'You Paid Them $3 Million': Rand Paul Grills FBI Director On Censoring Americans On Social Media 

Are you, that is.

Good news!! trump's going to prison!!

Actually George Washington warned us about this in his farewell address but no one knows that.

my dad warned me of this all my life and died with the words there is no justice on his lips. he was a army veteran

yes it is! we are even punished daily for "wrong-think".....anyone who participates in stifling Free Speech spits on the Constitution that I swore to uphold and risked my life defending.. wish more of my fellow vets would speak. also wish more Patriots would speak. this business of sauntering through life as if all we have fought for was worth nothing as long as no one bothers you is childish, weak and WILL come back to bite us all.

Exactly.

SAD 😔 SAD 😔 SAD NOBODY CAN DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT,

His lip was quivering. He was nervous

The Brds nailed Scooter Libby for "forgetting" something he should have remembered. It is absolutely a CORRUPT double standard engineered by libs

Good news!! trump's going to prison!!

"A nation of sheep ..."

“ to my understanding “ is his back door out.

For the rich and powerful only… the serfs and paupers are treated totally differently

and yet THEY keep having hearings? WHY? because THEY will DO NOTHING

Federal Bureau of Instigation

EXACTLY

Poor analogy. A precise analogy would be in court and they asked if your buddy killed him and you say "I'm not aware of my buddy killing him. That is a perfectly understandable and normal answer.

That defense has been used in the past. Sleepwalkers especially

​@@dongunderson9352actually your response is a poor comparison. Better said my employees might have done something and while I am responsible for each and every action they do, I am not aware that they did it because I ignored the internal memos and emails that were sent to me.😂😂😂😂

I will take that on notice and get back to you on that question!😅

never ever going to happen. =(

A dog and pony show on C Span is not what solves these problems. This is nothing but a media stunt to monetize on the issues by presenting them as entertainment for the idiots of viewers to provide them ratings.

Accountable for what? If there's no evidence that the FBI directed the companies to remove protected speech then no crime was committed. Asking someone if they committed a crime is not evidence of a crime. All I see here is the same thing the entire GOP is doing, fishing for evidence of something that doesn't exist or never happened to corroborate the lies that they told their voters.

Lots of the conspiracists are serving lengthy prison sentences and the orange man is soon to follow

@@2380MGhaha never say never brother…We’ll all see in 2024 elections.

They can lie, cheat, mislead etc. America belongs to God!!!!! No one will escape the wrath of God as He sees fit!!!!!

It takes more than Rand Paul to do it. Most of the Republicans are weak.

They absolutely know

And you're unaware that this is a Trump appointed individual. Joke always ends on you...

​@@MrSaritch57and you think people don't have their own agendas? Like cozying up the Trump so he could get appointed ? It's actually says more about your worldview, assuming that anyone appointed by a Democrat has to act like a Democrat or they are evil. Didn't think of that did you?

​@@MrSaritch57what the hell does that have to do with anything ? Does Trump have powers to see the future?

@@tnuggyz 🤣🤣🤣 that's absolutely spineless guy. Ever hear of accountability?

@@tnuggyz so... you'll blast Biden for his appointments and what they do, completely coward out and give Trump and his a free pass. I'm dying here 🤣🤣🤣

Because in total it was WAY more. He was pleased that Senator Paul did not ask THAT question. Watch his face. 3 million is spitting in the ocean for this government. DHS has given grants of 16 million to A n t i f a type groups.

Who in this President’s Cabinet has ever had their facts and answers available? I’d like to issue Pink Slips all around!

And only the voters with simple minds will accept this response.

He was so very aware he had to constantly glance at his notes and answer the question in the precise way his lawyers wanted him to answer the question.

@@mustang607 Yes. Lie in the precise way.

Now . The F.BI. and just wonderful if you do what they say . Our freedoms are dead ... Because no one flows the Law , like we all have to !

He needs to look at the Gallows !!!

100%

He presentation certainly suggests that telling the truth is an alien concept for him.

So does that wimp Mayorkas.

It's the new America joe's given the UNITED STATES of AMERICA !! 🗽🇺🇸🚓

traitor

Yet keenly aware of Trump's bathroom habits.

​@@kathyelliott6051BS. The FBI was basically founded on dirt. They've been dirty their whole existence.

@kathyelliott6051 ....Remind me again who was president in 2017 ?

Yes the current Republican party is a threat to our Constitutional Republic.

It should be public knowledge that big social media is a tool of the government to promote propaganda and silence inconvenient truths and dissent.

As a Democratic Patriot, I absolutely agree! If this crime did occur, or if there is legitimate evidence that a crime occurred, the responsible persons must be prosecuted to the fullest extent!!! NOW. I am sure you are 100% in agreement that the many crimes of the Trump Crime Family must be prosecuted!!! AGREED?

Hardly. The Trump autocracy and hypocrites are.

@@TrilobitesRTasty fine but we have to prosecute the Biden crime family as well

Narcissistic Sociapaths.

Wray know's he is above the Law !😈

It now seems to be the major qualification for high office and success in corporate life.

Should He Had Taken The 5TH???

I don't think he is a good liar. For an intelligence agent he seems a little shaky. But maybe he does feel like he is above it and didn't need to prep for this.

E knows how to see.😉

He’s by no mean Clueless he corrupt as hell!

Clueless? He said what happened. Paul thinks he is lying but didn't have any evidence other than tucker Carlson said so, and that makes him clueless?

#ChristopherWray is not clueless, he is corrupt.

Even if he was removed, they have 10 just as bad to take his place. It also takes a 2/3 senate vote for removal.

​​@michaeltillotson3711 Wray a liar in almost everything he says. Grow up

alas, we are the common folk..

Trump appointed him. 😂

​@@ltyler01And your point is?

I believe the point is the 🍊🤡 surrounded himself with A LOT OF CRIMINALS ?? 🤣🤣

@@kathleenwolick4948 You speaking of Biden and his crime family?

​@ltyler01 OK WHATS THAT GOT TO DO WITH IT. BUT TRUMP. GET OVER THAT BS ALREADY.

Now Rand Paul should talk about how he and his son made MILLIONS off of marketing click bait websites that they owned in tandem with Saber Communications and Digital Communications LLC. Also the insider trading done by his wife or the political contributions made by now jailed Jesse Benton who funneled Russian money to his political campaign. Anybody who thinks this pleb should be up there chastising the FBI director should learn to do their due diligence so you aren’t perpetuating the dumb American paradox this country suffers from. #themoreyouknow

I'm not aware, I'm not aware, I'm not aware, I'm not aware over and over again.

What is even more ridiculous is that they are allowed to not answer questions. If they avoid answering, the question should keep getting repeated until they provide a straight answer. At the end the question asked to the FBI director (Wray) was: "You're saying *there was never any discussion by any of your agents* in any of these meetings *of constitutionally protected speech being taken down?"* That's a question that only requires a one-word answer (Yes or No). Yes (i.e. there *was never any discussions* by agents) or No (i.e. there *was discussions* by agents). Instead Wray answers with the following: *"To my knowledge, our agents conducted themselves in compliance with the law throughout"* That is not an answer to the question he was asked. He was not asked if agents conducted them in compliance with the law, but specifically asked about whether there were any discussions about constitutional speech being taken down. Paul then asks the other guy (not sure who he is): *"You are not aware of your agents ever discussing any constitutionally protected speech with any of the social media companies?"* Again, this is a question that just requires a one word (yes or No) answer. Yes (he is not aware) or No (he is aware). The question is specifically asking him *if he is, personally, aware or not aware." His answer is: *"The same answer is as Director Wray provided to you,* ranking member Paul." The "answer" that the Director gave (which was not an answer to the question asked to the Director) was that *Director Wray had no knowledge of* ...But the other guy was asked what he, personally, was aware/ not aware of therefore by him referring to the same answer that the Director gave is a reference to Director Wray's knowledge (or lack of knowledge) and therefore does not provide an answer about what he (the other guy) was aware/ not aware (had knowledge) of. What a complete joke!!

Our Silence gives consent, so they Do/Take what they want. Even hil Larry said that STR8 up

meanwhile thousands are enamored by a multi-billion $ spherical stadium covered in LEDs 🥖🎪

In his mind, when he probably knows a lot more atrocious acts were done by others, hes thinking "Im not that bad"

We'll never live to see it ,, our freedoms are all but dead that's to this Regime.🗽🇺🇸🚓

Along with Granholm, Garland, Mayorkas and Joe Biden

For what?

​@@danburnes722Greed 💰and it's Called Corruption.

He said for what? I bet you want trump in jail to because he has a big mouth right? He is not sick in the head like these guys who wouldn’t mind destroying the country or even the world for corruption

You mean how Rand Paul pushed the Big Lie? Supports an Insurrectionist for office or simply lied about the science behind both the COVID mitigations or climate change?

You know... if we had regular order [and not these clown car funding mechanisms of omnibus bills], the fbi could be out on hold until they faced the music.

That is a great idea! Make them pay with their own money, not ours. 👍

💯

​@@flinch622where were you when Bush borrowed $$1.3 trillion for the rich and for his war and it never was returned?? We the people just need to vote better.

@@kathleenwolick4948. The entrenched Adninistrative State bureaucracies, their leadership and their employees were not voted in by anyone. They exert as much, if not more control and power over what goes on in the country. Like any living organism - and I consider the Administrative State to be analogous to a malignant parasitic organism - it has a survival instinct and that instinct has been on full display for anyone that wants to open their eyes.

Close down homeland insecurity .

DHS = America's KGB. Virtually no difference other than the letters.

People don't understand that "homeland" means Israel. It's not security for the USA.

I fear putting this in writing but the founders of this country gave us the answer to your question...

Funny how you don’t get Twitter can censor whatever they want. Funny how MAGA likes to put on this phony theatre for your entertainment.

He does know it!!! We know it!! He just won't tell the truth!!!

@@kayobrien1294 oh go take a nap. You need one. Get some education afterwards

Me neither. But the present administration is allergic to truth: those found not lying will be "resigning" shortly. Just look at any kjp press conference - spin is largely abandoned..

Ты что, американец, головой ударился, что перестал понимать в какой стране живёшь. Твоя главная обязанность, американец, платить все налоги, а на какие-то там права, ты не должен претендовать, потому что для властей Америки ты никто. А вот у высшей власти Америки имеются многие права, потому что для вас американцев они святые люди, и им позволено все. Конгрессмены и сенаторы могут воровать государственные деньги, врать под присягой и им за это ничего не будет, потому что для закона они не подсудны.

It does but companies are allowed to over rule constitutional rights for some reason. Who knows why?

@@rogeliosoto6953 my guess is those companies possibly funds and or is controlling people in the government

That's pretty bad that Russians (looks like Russian script ☝), who are no strangers to communism, can clearly see what's happening with our government while some of our own willfully blind citizens and even politicians can't! 🤦‍♀️

Yes, because it doesn't. Forbes is neglecting to disclose subsequent court rulings. Lies are lies, and misinformation is dangerous. Companies have every right. And the hypocrisy of GOP talking about restraining free speech is hilarious.

Dog and pony show

Nor is it the same as finding them guilty.

This. While it is, on one hand, nice to see... It means nothing until they are actually held accountable. Unless that happens this is all just a political dog and pony show.

That is correct. Talk get us no where. It time for our official to take action!

@@RoobieRhoo Actually this all happened. It is proven

Right on!! 👏✔

The problem is he always adds " not to my knowledge" at the end of each one of his lies. So you now need to prove he knew, thus knowingly lied.

Hopefully Mike Johnson pulls through

@@frotobaggins7169 well at the very least they are both incompetent for not knowing about these things, which DID happen, we have the receipts, thanks to Elon. They could be removed on those grounds easily, surely?

We have a justice system its Just Us.

Rand referred Anthony Fauci for prosecution for perjury and other crimes, two or three times, and nothing happened. He then went around normal judicial channels and referred Fauci for prosecution to a different federal agency and nothing happened. The deep state protects the deep state, making congressional oversight a dog & pony show.

That's why these interviews and hearings are bs. Need actual judge and jury for justice to be had here

They are trained to create "plausible deniability " with any statements, documents, accountability.

How about this one? “To the best of my knowledge………”

​​​@@copperraider7688this is a Corporation that opposes constitution and used congress to give them Immunity to Suppress the rights of the real Constitution in opposition by creating the illegal Corporation of United States since the Washington Act and the Act of England since 1871

​@@billyhndrsn4542These people are already pathological liars so I doubt it takes much training

And taxpayers money!!!

Waste of thyme.

Because THIS administration is innocent of any crime.

Especially when they should also be sitting in the FBI director seat in this hearing. Now Rand Paul should talk about how he and his son made MILLIONS off of marketing click bait websites on right wing conservatives and Christian lifestyle websites that they owned in tandem with Saber Communications and Digital Communications LLC.

Yup

Right? He looks like a lizard doing its push ups.

@@loesjevervloet3769 that is hilarious. Maybe he can do gieco commercials after Trump fires him

Great idea! I love it!

Ты американец, видно плохо знаешь историю своей страны. Ваша государство было создано всякими человеческими отбросами, которые прибыли из Европы. Но в основном это были англичане, у которых уже на генетическом уровне заложены подлейшие привычки разных проходимцев, воров , убийц и насильников. Так что не следует удерзость шивляться плохим манерам ваших конгрессменов, сенаторов, губернаторов и иных чиновников высокого уровня. Как ваши отцы основатели Америки были подлецами ,негодяями , убийцами и ворами, так они по наследству всю свою мерзость передали вам потомкам нынешней Америки.

^ Hey bot, you forgot to translate to English.

They need to be thrown in jail for not answering the ??? then we their bosses might get answers!!!

That would be most of them.They ALWAYS say I to get bk to them.Well, theyre not doing their job.

Sadly just another Pawn in the Circus.

Rand Paul, the "ophthalmologist" who couldn't get board certified so he made up his own bogus credentials? The antivaxxer who constantly lies about the extent of his medical knowledge?

I concur whole heartedly! Dr. Paul seems legit. A rarity in U.S. Politics.

We need a constant reminder of what the administration pays them to "forget," including perks (like private jets).

That is rich coming from a sycophantic Trump fan who believes everything the liars Trump and Fox feed you.

That's very convenient is it not ? 😮

Because they just work there, follow the CORPORATIONS RULES OF EMPLOYMENT.....they don't work for US, they work for the CORPORATION!

Wray is also a direct Obama plant working with Democrats to tip justice and power in their favor. It is treason against the citizens of the US.

Hell you can taste it !!!

Myorcas can't lie with that little smile and ray and his tells.

That the prevailing reason, we need to demand changes in the constitution. Something like the citizen right to fire any incompetent leaders. It could be added to the 14 amendments. Due process of law in the [Fourteenth Amendment] refers to that law of the land ... in each state which derives its authority from the inherent and reserved powers of the state, exerted within the limits of those fundamental principles of liberty and justice which lie at the base of all our civil and political institutions, and the greatest security for which resides in the right of the people to make their own laws, and alter them at their pleasure

Yes I am so tired of Rand Paul’s lies. He has an agenda and he doesn’t care what the truth is. He’s absolutely making it all up with a sliver of a fact. He should resign

@@HumanBeingsRThinkingBeings not at all coincidental.

Historically, the people being the law is an extremely poor decision. Mob justice has never been just. I think you're forgetting that the "enemy" here is the majority of the country that prefers order over chaos. If there's evidence of a crime, then why not press charges against the FBI? If there's no evidence then this is just a political stunt to appease voters that don't understand the difference between a trial and an inquiry.

Only the top leadership is trying to pull the rug from under us.

What enemy would that be, Comrade?

What are you smoking, Audrey? Trust me when I say I wish that that would actually ever happen, but it won’t.

Audrey, even WHEN they are 100% exposed, still nothing will happen, unless we win 2024 in a big way. Then, maybe we have a chance to turn this around. But I fear the extremely large amount of violent anti-semitism being displayed, across the country, by the thousands, at what are SUPPOSED to be some of the finest "teaching" institutions in the world, bodes poorly for the long term future of this great country.
