Sounds exactly like the head of the Homeland Security saying that the border is secure.

[minervasunset]

Let me get this straight; USA is spending untold amounts of money to help Ukraine fight Russia while at the same time USA is helping Iran help Russia beat Ukraine 😮

[Sydgekd]

All Washington DC need a term limits and age Limits and that go for the Supreme Court too.

[aliceshull]

If we do not get out of bed with these foreign actors, we will be sorry. (Hell, I'm ALREADY this will bite us hard, if we wont/don't stop)

[phantomstrike]

It will be an absolute miracle if we can make it out of this current Administration. I think we are all doomed.

[getsmart]

Way to go Senator Cruz we love the way you nail these professional liars !!!

[Tiffany-mubr]

I love it how Blinkin tries to hard to sound intelligent and tough while dodging the questions at the same time

[christinacornwell]

It would be great if the current government would take care of the United States of America first like they should be doing. Never have I heard so many people lie, chat and steal from America. 😢

[Chuck.S.]

"It's Trumps fault!" Every single person who testifies in front of congress seems to have a way to funnel their answers ( or excuses ) towards this same ridiculous claim

[bluesky]

"When God wants to punish a nation, He will give them worse wicked rulers." "All that is necessary for EVIL to triumph is for good men to do nothing”. May the righteous rise and the wicked fall. They know who they are!! Truth will always prevail in the end.

[Clutch]

Have you ever noticed that there is never any oh's or um's when someone is telling the truth?

[garlandbright.]

Blinky is so very hard to listen to. How Blinker only likes to talk about what he want’s to talk about? Answer the questions Mr. Uh Uh Uh Uh.

[lindabergman]

This s the 4th time I’ve listened to this tonite and I simply can’t believe how insane their thinking n actions are!!🥵

[lareinadelgulfo]

President putin has said many times that he was seeking peace ✌

[joe-ntqg]

We need term limits, nothing ever comes out of these hearings. Just book deals, dinner after the meeting all paid for
by tax dollars.

[yvespilotte]

Which government is Blinking on doesn't sound like it's America

[glorycalling]

The homeless population is growing and poverty is growing in USA but talking about foreign countries

[conradblando]

These people keep on interrogating/ questioning/ accusing Blinken, yet they can't stop him from all the wrong doings he committed. It's so annoying to witness them like this. More talks, no good result.

[goldenoriolesilverbirch]

Maybe the US could help the half of it's population living from paycheck to paycheck, without adequate health care provision & being savaged by inflation before providing endless financial & military assistance ( that ultimately will be funded by the tax payers ) to Ukraine.

[billcumming]

How incredible for the world to accept a dictate from the oval office about what and who you could trade with. These people are NUTS.
