#MTP #Trump #China
DemocRATS don’t care for the people
What really blows my mind is that the abortion pill is practically the earliest and safest way to have an abortion
Trump is guilty, stop the madness
These lawyers representing Trump must be pretty desperate for work, I hope they got their money up front
CORRUPT SUPREME COURT JUSTICE CLARENCE THOMAS PUBLICALLY PROMISED HE WOULD END AMERICAN’S ACCESS TO ALL CONTRACEPTIVES AFTER FIRST BANNING ACCESS TO ABORTION !! AND HERE IT IS ! THE FAR RIGHT PACKED SUPREME COURT HAS AN ENTIRE LIST OF CIVIL RIGHTS THEY INTEND TO DESTROY – ONE BY ONE ! THEY WORK WITH THE FEDERALIST SOCIETY TO CREATE THE LIST ! THEY ARE AIDED AND ABETTED BY A SECRET CATHOLIC FAR RIGHT RADICAL SECT WHICH WAS CREATED AND GIVEN POWER IN ITALY UNDER THE FASCIST MUSSOLINI – THEIR MEMBERSHIP ARE ELITIST PROFESSIONALS AND NEVER DIVULGED AND THEY INFILTRATE THE HIGHEST OFFICES OF THE COUNTRY AND SPECIALISE IN RECRUITING LAWYERS AND LAW STUDENTS WHO THEY WILL ELEVATE SO AS TO BE IN A POSITION TO REMODEL AMERICAN SOCIETY ACCORDING TO THEIR OPUS DEI VIEWPOINT.
THEIR FINANCIAL BACKERS NEED NOT EVEN BE CHRISTIANS. THEY ACTIVELY FIGHT AGAINST THE SEPARATION OF POWERS BETWEEN CHURCH AND STATE AND APPEAR TO LOVE RUSSIA !
TRUMP’S CORRUPT “FIXER ” AND ATTORNEY GENERAL – ” BAD ” BILL BARR & HIS SIDE KICK – TRUMP WHITE HOUSE COUNSEL – PAT CIPPOLONE ( PREVIOUSLY DEPUTY TO BARR WHEN HE WAS AG IN THE BUSH ADMINISTRATION ) ARE BOTH BELIEVED TO BE MEMBERS AND HEADED UP A CLOSELY RELATED ORGANISATION – THE CATHOLIC INFORMATION CENTRE.
THESE ARE DANGEROUS ELITISTS WHO OPERATE IN SECRET AND AIM TO PUT THE STATE UNDER FAR RIGHT RELIGIOUS RADICAL CONTROL !
= A THEOCRACY !
THESE 2 LAWYER BASED ORGANISATIONS ARE CLEARLY WITHOUT PRINCIPLES OR INTEGRITY OF ANY KIND – AND THE TRUTH IS A FOREIGN CONCEPT TO THEM – AS THEY SUPPORT AND ENABLE TRUMP – THE MOST IMMORAL AND CORRUPT AND TRAITOROUS, LYING, CHEATING, DIVISIVE, HATEFILLED PERSON WHO EVER RAN FOR PUBLIC OFFICE AND FOUND HIS WAY INTO THE U.S. WHITE HOUSE !
PREVIOUS AMERICAN TRAITORS BELONGING TO OPUS DEI INCLUDE THE INFAMOUS CONVICTED AMERICAN SPY – ROBERT HANSSEN.
AN FBI AGENT HANSSEN SPIED FOR RUSSIA FROM 1979 TO 2001- APPARENTLY ON RELIGIOUS GROUNDS !
THE DEPT OF JUSTICE CALLED HIS ESPIONAGE –
” THE WORST INTELLIGENCE DISASTER IN U.S. HISTORY ! ”
THE SECT CONVENIENTLY HAS THEIR OWN “PET” PRIESTS – IT IS BELIEVED THAT ONE SUCH PRIEST SANCTIONED A COVER UP OF THE SPY – HANSSEN FOR OVER A DECADE AND ABSOLVED THE PERSON OF ALL GUILT IN HELPING RUSSIA AGAINST THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA ! – IN KEEPING WITH THEIR BELIEF SYSTEM OF THERE BEING NO SEPARATION OF POWERS AND THE STATE REALLY BEING UNDER THE POWER OF THE CHURCH OR SPECIFICALLY A SECRET ELITE SECT – WHICH NOTIONALLY CALLS ITSELF CATHOLIC – THE GOVERNING PRINCIPLE OF THE SECT IS THAT THEY ARE ” ELITE UNACCOUNTABLE FOLKS ” AND THAT THE END JUSTIFIES THEIR MEANS – THEY SPEND THEIR TIME, MONEY, EFFORTS TRYING TO DESTROY – CIVIL RIGHTS – HUMAN RIGHTS – AMERICAN DEMOCRACY – AND AMERICAN SOCIETY WHEN THEY COULD JUST GO LIVE IN A COUNTRY WHICH SUPPORTS THEIR RADICAL RELIGIOUS VIEWS.

EVERYONE NEEDS TO EDUCATE THEMSELVES – THESE OUTRAGEOUS LEGAL ACTIONS REMOVING AMERICAN CIVIL AND HUMAN RIGHTS ARE NOT RANDOM ACTS BY RANDOM INDIVIDUALS ! .. .
Shave off the unattractive mustaches.
Good show like always💯 hope NBC will make it go on like an hour longer or hour and a half plz think about it love this show man👍
Leave babies alone in the wombs. You want to fight for something, go to Ukraine, they need your help for sure over there.
I used to love Meet the Press. Not anymore. Meet the press used to be informative. Today, it’s a Democratic one-sided propaganda machine for the democrats and the hard core bias is disgusting.
DO not join the military and do not let your kids join. You will be sent to Ukraine or Tiawan and killed for nothing.
So Dems don’t really have anyone who doesn’t greet the air than this 80 yrs old man ? Come on Dems.
I agree first it was the braids on the women than it was the afro’s on the men. But you have to know your not alone they don’t like Jewish people or mideasterns they also don’t like christians catholicism don’t fall for the hipocrites smiling faces latina’s and their men know they are not liked and their multiracial children know too sincerely Cuban’s and Brazilians Dominican republic and saint Dominica also virgin islands Bahamas and Saint Thomas.
Trumplicans, enough is enough.
The Demon did not allow the boxes to be taken even after the court told him too …. Biden said go ahead you can have them most are from my VP days
Toxic work environment? Ive better working conditions at a coal mine.
Voting: “Young people turned out in droves; that made the difference.”
Vote!
Vote Blue!
Vote, and encourage your family & friends to Vote!
This Lawyer makes no sense.
Fact check: the Claim about Obama keeping documents at an Illinois restaurant is false and has been debunked. The Presidential Claims act clearly states: Once a President leaves office, NARA gets custody of all presidential documents from his/her administration”
“Fear them not therefore; for there is nothing covered, that shall not be revealed; and hid, that shall not be known”. Matthew 10:26
These two practically powerless and obscure public servants are now known to the world. If they had went public with how they were being treated, hardly anyone would even believe that this is still happening in 2023. It is all going to come out and they are now superstars.
Just watch God work!!
This lawyer gives lawyers a bad name. He’s twisting himself to lie for his client
trusty? do these pukes make up their names?
So if it’s so easy for Tennessee to expel 2 black men? Why can the democrats not expel all them people in the house that were in the january six
NBCNEWS MONDAY 4. 10 23
Too much power for one man, say it with me! Is Never good 👍
Tennessee, shameful behavior, towards our children and these two gentlemen that you ousted .I pray that the next election the people vote blue to get rid of the corrupt politicians in your government.
So Jan 6 was a good thing? Cool thanks for letting us know its all political we have no laws, we need the 2nd amendment more than ever.
Democracy in this country doesn’t mean mob
Very informative, thanks
I hate to think that we are raising children to go to war. The fact is, look at China’s and Russia’s populations! They make our country look very vulnerable. So, probably why the anti abortion issues exist. I pray for peace.
CORRECTION ATTY. HOW MANY TIMES ADDRESSING ,PRESIDENT TRUMP ! FORMER PRES. RIGHT? YOU MUST SAY IT.
But it sounds like neither Clinton nor Obama said they had returned everything when they actually hadn’t. Sounds like they were both candid and went through the approval process.
This joker was a prosecutor for 27 years? Well, his prosecuting days are over. After this clown show, nobody with a brain in his head will hire his sorry derriere again!
Trusty is the guy who misled Christina Bobb, another Trump lawyer, to sign a document saying that there were no documents at Mar a Lago…!!! And Christina Bobb, did not trust Trusty, and added a note saying: “based on the information provided by [Trusty] there are no documents left at Mar a Lago”…!!! Now, Christina Bobb has been forced to hire a lawyer to defend herself. Trusty can BS as much as he wants, but he may end up losing his license.
Tennessee – *THE THREE LAWMAKERS WERE PART OF INCITING AN INSURRECTION! If they had pulled this stunt in the governor’s office or the supreme court chambers they would have been hailed off to jail!*
They did it to my district in Nashville that is predominantly black, redrew the district and our new rep is a Republican GOP Clampitt that lives 70 miles outside of Nashville. A friend of mine that lives in downtown now has a rep that is in cookeville which is 80-100 miles outside of Nashville.
Trump is a fecking criminal, and has been for decades.
How dare you whine about ethics in defense of that disgusting, amoral POS.
Rep. Pearson should be encouraged to use his own voice, no disrespect to MLK, however, we as a country are slowly transitioning into a younger, brilliant, and courageous class of politicians with a voice of their own. Please do not allow older Black politicians and Black Political news correspondents overshadow your moment. You don’t need them. This should not be a Black moment, this is your moment to emphasize your compassion for preserving the lives of your generation, regardless of race. Use your platform to encourage and groom college students across the country to run and fill local, state, and federal seats.
Hate not ever leaving being in your Cristian churches
Trusty knows full-well that he’s narrating to the 45th’s base and has zero legal standing on the obstruction case. He’s going to lose in court.
I need your help Cristians want to get baptize okay asap
They should be locked up just like Jan 6 inserection people
They broke the law , nobody is above the law!!!
Love these 2 Heroes
This message is for Gavin Newsome for any candidate from all parties involved black Americans will not continue to vote for you to do nothing for us #reparations #endqualifiedimunnity
Trump’s lawyer can’t answer a direct question to save his life. Nothing but spin and deflection coming out of his mouth. Let him have it Chuck! 💯
Large SE no vayan catholica
Attention to any Cristian churches need help asap want to get baptize okay
Don’t need want to be catholic
Justin and Justin for President👍👍👍
Oh My God….I’m so glad the people of Tennessee and the country are hearing how he runs the house. This is old boy bologna at its worst! Step aside Archie Bunkers we are coming. You will not control and monopolize power anymore!
If a Republican could just once address an issue without saying what about Joe Biden or so and so did worse. Just address the question about what your client did. Such a joke!
The media in the news just cowards because you guys are scared of Donald Trump yeah you will you scared of Donald Trump the only one that’s scared of Donald Trump is Midas Touch that’s only good news station on the TV all around the country is Midas Touch Halloween listening you guys no more your water down too much y’all go against the grain you’re riding with Donald Trump on the low low not telling the people the full extent of what Donald Trump really doing to the country and the people in the country I don’t mean this to y’all station no more I don’t like wheat and fake news y’all know what Donald Trump doing y’all know what Donald Trump been doing y’all news people y’all totally breaking down the people you’re riding with Donald Trump I’ve been watching you for the last 4 years y’all don’t get worse media you guys don’t got Wilson yo Horseman Donald Trump your glorified Donald Trump on the Lolo Be Your Hero 2 yeah I said it down some yoga’s hero to the media the median Wharton Fox on the low low y’all know y’all love Donald Trump on the low low Ashley M you should be ashamed of yourself the wait you guys have been the nature your conduct on truth y’all got not like Donald Trump the medial I like Donald Trump Midas Touch is the only news station I bet you won’t go Midas Touch I bet you won’t go Midas touch with that b*******
Another great episode. I appreciate this show.
I think Trump’s lawyer won that argument about the boxes, much as i don’t like to admit it
Nonsense and so fake!!
The left is brainwashing you so we all become real slave’s.
Hold your guns tight(the reason our greatest fathers gave us this right)protect yourself from this out of control leftist government.
You know gun laws started after emancipation right? They didn’t want them free black folk harming their old slave owners, etc.
He still didn’t unswer the Question
These Justines are fantastic – great to listen to
Boy. This Trump lawyers are ignorants
This is the Republican Southern Playbook Jim Crow 2.0 taxation without representation
What Tennessee did is disgusting and beyond the pale. Republicans are literally accusing democrats of that which they are guilty even as the words come out of their mouths. This is no longer about serving your constituents, but of political revenge. The voters have to show the politicians who is in charge. No matter how red the district, democrats MUST challenge GOP incumbents at every level. This is not what democracy is about. It is rule by CONSENT, NOT by tyranny.
Did that attorney say that he also looked at the documents?? If so, does he have top secret clearance?
Smart lawyer. Trusty wiped the floor with Chuck Todd
Hey, “Mr.” Trusty…. gotta news flash for you. It doesn’t matter HOW the information gets out to the public – whether a leak or a press release; if the security footage PROVES DT searched and moved boxes or documents AFTER receiving the subpoena… it’s obstruction. Pure and simple. I don’t even have to be a lawyer to know that. The SOURCE of the info doesn’t make the ACTION any less illegal. Your boy is going down. And how delicious that it will be his own security footage that does him in. Hollywood couldn’t write it any better.
Whataboutism. The most pathetic, weakest argument out there. And a “lawyer” is using it? DT gets the representation he pays for, and he deserves no better.
He also used “I think” and “probably” way too often.. 😂
We call it “Yeah but..!”
😢
That Lawyer might be on the path to Giulianism!.
BIDEN 2024!
Partisan hack much Chucky
Imagine how great this would be without a 15-second commercial every 3 minutes.
Shame on you Tennessee for embodying all that is wrong in this world and for attempting to suppress the democracy that your fathers and forefathers fought to their deaths to attain.
SHAME on you.
Keep being representatives for black people. I’m not part of their state or district but they representing a minority demographic. I support them.
Today’s Republicans reveal the emptiness of the myth called “compassionate conservatism”.
Thank you MTP for having bothJustin Jones and Justin Pearson on. These bright and educated young men/young representatives give me a glimmer of hope for our country’s future. I look forward to seeing where their political careers will take them. Fight the good fight for democracy 🇺🇸
So glad they were expelled. Race baiter’s like them only further divide Americans.
“Trusty,” Trump’s attorney…what a joke!
Oh c’mon… this is an SNL skit..
James Trusty…? Really…?
Is the new accountant called
Brian Counter…?😂
So glad those guys from Tennessee were expelled! We have no place for race baiters who seek to further divide Americans🎉
Welcome to Texas, Tennessee.
Trusty doing that whole false equivalency thing Republicans intrinsically do . That and culture wars is LITERALLY all they have… Well that and stupidity.
… this Counsel refers to another situation which could be a lie… defend the Deranged Tramp position so one could understand his reason… justify in detail but don’t lie…what others did should be another case…
Remember Martin Luther king these people kills people especially if you’re of color and poor white people.
You guys are talking nonsense. China can’t invade Taiwan’s airspace since Taiwan does not have an airspace, its “airspace” is part of the PRC’s airspace. The PRC has the right to fly to Taiwan and land there anytime they want.
Likewise, China can’t invade Taiwan because Taiwan is part of China. Everyone says so, including the UN. There is only one China, and that is solely represented by the PRC. The “Republic of China” is long gone.
It’s like saying the US invades Hawaii when it sends ships there.
Your whole view of it all is just racist and ideologically toxic. When China reintegrates Taiwan into the PRC – and it will – Taiwan will continue to ship semiconductors just like before. China is a nation of trade and tech, they have zero interest in damaging Taiwanese chip makers. The only thing that will change is that the Taiwanese will also ship to the mainland including Huawei again, which they should never have stopped, anyway, because Huawei is a fine company. Even the IT experts of the British intelligence service said that their thorough lab tests of Huawei 5G equipment has shown no problems at all. It was a purely political decision to ban it. Basically, the decision of bad losers appealing to the racism of the mob they rule.
You should really stay out of Taiwan, it is none of your business. The current government in Taiwan is a puppet regime. The president is corrupt to the core, the media are anything but free and neutral. Compared to that the PRC is super-decent.
Nor is there any point in insisting the whole world adopt your toxic Western version of democracy. It only creates problems and division. Just look at your country, it is a nightmare. China is right to reject that toxin.
Funny when Americans utter their nonsense about China while most of them have never set a foot on Chinese land. It is like me talking about heart surgery. I shouldn’t because I have no clue. The communists won the civil war in China, get over it. A civil war the nationalists started by the way, by torturing and murdering communists including Mao family members. The nationalists were busy persecuting their fellow citizens instead of fighting the invading Japanese who were committing massive war crimes in China. The Chinese were right to kick the nationalists out.
I am European, but I am a friend of China. I can’t say the same thing about the US, which only causes war and problems wherever they spread like cancer.
The West should make a u-turn and speed up the peaceful integration of Taiwan into the PRC, based on the 1 country, 2 systems concept, which works fine in Hong Kong, which is booming again. There is no other country in the world that grants a province as much autonomy as China does, with controlled borders and even separate currencies. The only thing that will be run from Beijing in the future is defense/national security/foreign politics. Everything else remains unchanged.
It’s not especially “ironic” that Donald Trump continues manipulating law to suit his personal ambitions. Nor that he finds committed, willing accomplices—by any name—to help, to guarantee, to protect his thwarting of the law(s) for individual gain—which he hasn’t even made an effort to earn.
But it’s rife with irony that in the state-concept where Dr. King was murdered, on the very anniversary week of that crime, three lawmakers get censured for essentially demanding the identical measures Dr. King ASKED for: “Be true to what you’ve put on paper,…quit sending checks marked “Insufficient Funds.”
Ironically, the same question posed by Lincoln in his address at Gettysburg: “… testing whether… any nation so conceived can long endure”??? When only the lawmakers with skin-coloration get expelled, there’s no distinction between TN-concept’s legislators & the Reconstruction Congress of 1876-77.
As long as The System of White Supremacy exists, no such nation “conceived in liberty, dedicated to the proposition that all [people] are created equal,” CAN exist in evidence. No other nation on the same planet has a moral, legal, political, or legitimate obligation to recognize its “existence,” so long as evidence remains that it was never actually brought about in practice.
The stark contrast with its founding “justifications” for formulating itself, as well as all of those utterances every single time it sent men & women into War on its behalf, extrapolating taxes from its populace it flatly refused to yield-up to European empires, is truly, DEEPLY ironic in the extreme. What is more “patriotic” than standing behind the work begun in 1776? What is more “patriotic” in character than insisting on Justice being embodied, enacted & enforced—Especially, when the tide of general opinion skewers toward Systematic Injustice in order to deliver up “things” in preference to people?
Media attentiveness to Ukraine (concept) is all very fine. But a national (concept) blindness to the concept of South Sudan, whose founding was initiated & instituted by the US-concept itself, is further telling of its actual valuations, in actual practice, globally, in historical context. 🇺🇸⚖️

Tennessee is looking suspect. I want to know more about the reasons these two were expelled.
I want to know more about why these two were expelled. Tennessee is looking pretty suspect.
Gotta be some governmental body that oversees (sorry) them. If it was not justifiable heads should roll. It’s 2023 not 1823. Just looks bad.
I’m voting for Trump and not another Obama nor an Obama lover!
We aren’t minorities the real minorities are those white racists and they’re controlling volume now gets muted!
