Gotta get rid of democrats in the US House🤔🤔🤔🤨🤨🤨

lol can you say projection dems.

Nailer has no credibility! Wasted our time with Russia and impeachment for 3 years!

I see Panic realDonaldTrump DrainingTheSwamp IvankaTrump DonaldJTrumpJr Barr RepJerryNadler forgot to mention Durham Tic Tok Trump2020

Nadler and leftists taking a page out of the Alinsky playbook because they know Barr and Durham will expose the Obama administration's sedition.

The President needs a lot of 'fixers' because of all the garbage that scum like Nadler throw at him. But Nadler is a career politician, like many others. Finally, a President has come to expose the corrupted individuals in the Federal Gov & the News Networks that lie for them.

What a load of shit. RepJerryNadler knows that Barr is going after the criminals and traitors for trying to overthrow the President. Fat boy is scared. He knows what's coming.

Oh, so treason should be ignored? These guys are all sweating bullets because their house of cards is crumbling and justice will not be denied on this President’s watch.

Nadler is too corrupt and bias to be on any committee. This kind of man is what makes the US Federal Government untrustworthy in the eyes of most Americans.

Nadler pull up your pants.

this man never tells the truth he makes things up and will be gone soon!

You are correct, Nadler. It IS unacceptable to do things (exactly what you are doing right now) simply because you do not like them. Y’all have been doing this since our President took office. Please just stop, already! We aren’t stupid. We see right through your little coup!

No, RepJerryNadler AGBarr is NOT a fixer. He is the Attorney General for the people of the UNITED STATES! So sick of this man and his buddies trying to malign our AG because they KNOW he has the goods on many in the Dem party from the previous administration. He's conning ppl.

Are you kidding? Democrats have always had their own set of rules.

true that & This Orange character of a funny farm President does hat he ants & no questions asked I think that the Government is scare of the Clown. because every Nation is really Laughing at his Ignoramus & means a very Ignorant person such as him

This guy a cartoon or what? FatNadler

Rep Nadler is a professional politician lifer for almost 27 years who supported along with Nancy Pelosi and Joe Biden’s defense of the 1994 crime bill’s role in mass incarcerations of blacks according Rep. Corry Booker!

Gym you will be in prison soon

Hi 'ABC!' HA! HA! This Guy Still Trying To Get Famous! Oooop's! 'FriendeDon!'

Says the man who should be under the jail for allowing a sex offender to molest the young men he coached.

I wouldn’t let Jim_Jordan take out my trash.

If he knew the doctor was raping the students and did nothing, why is Jim Jordan not complicit in the act?

Jim Jordan is poster boy for corruption.

Gym excels at dismissal of allegations like back in his Ohio State days.

Jim Jordan and Matt Gaetz are Bosom Buddies of the same trash bin.

Correcting Justice? WTH?

Says the liar

He has no clue was justice is since he should be in jail

No gales of laughter from onlookers?

he does'nt look up while hes saying all this probably wouldnt be able to keep a straight face without laughing lol

Why is he even still in Congress?

Nadler and Schiff have zero credibility.

I’m surprised Gym had time to leave the showers!

'Correcting justice' Justice is a binary choice - something is either just or unjust.

Nadler is upset his diabetes mess up his erection

While you at it address all the corruption that happened in the justice department

When will they get it correct? They made this mess, only good thing they have done is point fingers at one another

100% LIE. He serves at the pleasure of the president. He should’ve let him go a long time ago.

I can send you a bunch of actual reporting on the criminal conspiracy against President Trump and his Administration if you’d like. Apparently you don’t have any investigative journalists anymore.

No Nadler that’s what the left has been doing.

What a jerk.

America gone to the dogs since Trump's presidency!!!

You know how you know Nadler is lying his lips are moving. Get to work for the American people. Quit wasting time on idiotic things

You mean he showed us how easily the law can be manipulated

HAHAHAHA this guy cracks me up! He has broken every law, lied to the American people for 3 1/2 years and now wants to pretend he knows about fair and impartial? Democrats are the problem

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 Go and try to put on your mask.

Is he talking about the Obama administration? It must be the Obama administration.

SPOT ON!

MR. Nadler... I think you are actually reading from the official Democratic manual on how to destroy the US...That's what your party does and has been doing for decades!! RIPCOMMONSENSE

One set of rules for Obama, Clinton & their cronies. That’s for sure.

This is a undermining the rule of law pattern with Barr. Start impeachment proceedings and don’t spare the subpoenas. Get this documented in public record. Forget What Senate Republicans might do. Do your duty.

Did you say wingman?

Nadler is so funny. What's next RepJerryNadler blame trump for firing low level employee over stealing items from the White House and blasts trump for doing his job.

How’s that again, Jerry?

RepJerryNadler What about the clear and dangerous proven attempt to take out a duly elected POTUS that you and SpeakerPelosi SenSchumer RepAdamSchiff EricHolder JoeBiden and others took part in? You should familiarize yourself with this...

It’s an appointed position. Nuff said.

Credibility rating:

No. The sickness that we must address is Senator Nadler's interest in his own self-serving political agenda rather than the justice the American people deserve.

Jerry, I can't get the picture of you with the mask on your head out of my mind 😂

still good

It is time to put Obama in jail.

Yes, America should not be paying for Trump to use our DOJ as his private mob attorney. It is almost as grotesque as that child molester Barr.

They use FBI as a weapon against American citizens

Damn straight....

Uh huh. It's all connected.

The swamp runs deep.

I hope they testify.

So it wasn’t politicized under Obama-Biden when they spied illegally on the Republican presidential campaign? Or when Agent Strzok extended surveillance after texting his lover about insurance policies?

Let’s Talk Bout the AttemptedCoup against an incoming POTUS the American people fairly ELECTED .. EndOfDemocracy

WTF! Why are they worrying about this bullshit, when they should be enacting laws to prosecute people who destroy our statues and our history. Get back to work you pieces of crap & do something that’s productive. Attacking Trump is an insult & it’s not productive for our country!

I guess those Democrats didn't see the DOJ as politicized when it was them doing the politicization under Obama.

Yawn Trump2020 baby!

ImpeachBarr

Adam SCHIFF n pelosi ?

Lol what a joke . Democrats are hypocrites

It’s a shame that our departments have turned into Trump’s personal teams that can’t do their jobs without bias, fear of losing their jobs or being reprimanded

ABC and the Democrat party are in Cahoots. Trump2020NowMoreThanEver

Lol,is this a parody account?

Democrats should blame themselves for confirming Barr
