Vote him out or Kick him out! Unacceptable!

[MrRonnie]

The irony is a terrorist accusing the innocent to be a terrorist!

[colemandavis]

Miss Maya Berry if you ever read this please know you are an important and loved person!!!

[Masanumi]

I bet he would let her finish her sentence if she was a white man.

The entire room was on her side. Listen to that reaction. That level of disrespect.

[Maleeha]

This despicable man must have got fresh e-transfer from AIPAC

[sandrabryant]

His little smirk when he said don't cha 🤬 what a disgusting pig. That woman handled herself with grace. I'd be livid.

It´s so sad to watch American democracy these days

[MrMM-vgqo]

So clear who owns all of these politicians

[EsmailLotfi-lc]

What a disgusting speech from a "so called senator". It is a shameful day in America.

[kathleencove]

The fact that he’s conflating a UN humanitarian aid organization with a foreign armed group is just absolutely ridiculous.

[AodhanBeag]

Jim Crow south didnt end, they just changed tactic

[marketads]

Not just the worst senator we have. Not just our Jessie Helms replacement. But…. Unacceptable. Horrible. Disgusting. Unconscionable. Un-American. Un-statesman-like.

My God !

[abukar]

What a clown 🤡, Us Congress has become a Circus

[zarahcastro]

It is so performative of that senator. Performing for AIPAC. He is devoid of humanity, intelect and principles that he can accuse a witness without thought of the implications and consequences.

[amberrichards]

Absolutely disgusting attitude from a senator, so very immature and narrow minded.

[lucindaealy]

Kennedy is uncouth and ignorant. Louisiana suffers from his lacking leadership.

[calilugas_psychiatrist]

it was projection. he clearly loves bags over his head, namely cone-shaped white ones.

[MyKC]

Bet Aipac gave him the scripts he is reading from

[felipemejia]

That senator showed what a tyrant he is.
And that's a representative of some people.
A disgrace!
