(This post may contain disputed claims. We make no assertions as to the validity of the information presented by our Opinion Columnist. We are an opinion blog, not a traditional news outlet, and this post should be treated as such. Enjoy.)Judiciary Chairman Jerry Nadler is holding a hearing Tuesday to look into Attorney General William Barr’s actions of sending in federal agents to quell the violence in Portland and Seattle. Nadler is also attempting to show that Barr is in cahoots with doing President Donald Trump’s bidding. Well, Nadler lost it after Rep. Jim Jordan showed a video that proved Antifa was not “peaceful” but completely out of control. You’ll love this.
Judiciary Chairman Jerry Nadler had no clue that Ranking Member Jim Jordan had a video ready as part of his opening statement. After Nadler claimed the protests in Portland were “peaceful” and Bill Barr as the attorney general sent in “troops” to harass “the peaceful protesters made up of moms and vets,” Nadler gave the floor to Jim Jordan.
Jordan’s video started with clips of leftwing reporters and politicians describing “peaceful protesters.” It was followed by scenes of Antifa taking violent actions to harm police officers and destroy property. The Democrats on the committee sat there dumbfounded.
The GOP posted the video to social media titled: “The video Chairman Nadler doesn’t want you to see”:
All Chairman Nadler could do was whine about the video. He could not deny what it showed.
“Committee Chair Jerry Nadler noted that Republicans did not give the committee the required 48-hour notice for video elements,” CNN reports.
“I hope that Mr. Jordan never complains about the length of my opening statement,” Nadler said. “I am going to insert the committee’s audio-visual policy into the record of this hearing and note that the minority did not give the committee the 48-hour notice required by that policy.”
Barr also denied the Democrats claim that America has a problem with “systemic racism.” He said police departments nationwide do not have “systemic racism.”
Nalder lost it later yelling at the GOP reps telling them: “No! You cannot drink coffee in here!” He started off by claiming they were endangering committee members. He looks like a fool:

Barr calls the far-left movement to defund the police “grossly irresponsible.”
“The demonization of the police is not only unfair and inconsistent with principles of all people should be treated as individuals, but gravely injurious to the inner-city communities,” he said.
Barr correctly labeled black on black crime the real problem in the inner-cities. He continued by blasting the rogue rioters as having nothing to do with the death of George Floyd.
“Largely absent from these scenes of destruction are even superficial attempts by the rioters to connect their actions to George Floyd’s death or any legitimate call for reform,” he said. “Nor could such brazen acts of lawlessness plausibly be justified by a concern that police officers in Minnesota or elsewhere defied the law.”
Barr states that since he announced his investigation into what he calls “the grave abuses involved in the bogus ‘Russiagate’ scandal, many of the Democrats on this Committee have attempted to discredit” him by “conjuring up a narrative” that he’s simply President Trump’s “factotum who disposes of criminal cases according to his instructions.”
“Judging from the letter inviting me to this hearing, that appears to be your agenda today,” he added.
Americans blasted Nadler and his bogus hearing on social media.
“I can’t stop laughing. Jerry Nadler is trying his hardest to defend those burning down our county. Bill Barr is looking at him like he is the biggest moron in the country,” tweeted “Kambree.”

“BOOM: @Jim_Jordan just exposed the domestic terrorists burning down our cities for all of America to see—the same terrorism Jerry Nadler wants you to believe is ‘a myth.’ These are NOT peaceful protests–no matter what Democrats & the media tell you,” tweeted Charlie Kirk.

“I wonder if Nadler and the other fools/Dermocrats on the House Judiciary Committee (led by Eva Pelosi) would react differently if the Capitol Building was subjected to the same kind of mostly peaceful protests, aka , daily assault..” tweeted Mark Levin.

“Corrupt @RepJerryNadler got owned by @Jim_Jordan with the video. It proved everything Nadler said in his opening statement was a lie. Nadler has zero credibility and needs to be investigated. He is not fit for office. #PaidRiots #OwnedBySoros,” tweeted Twitter user “Buzz.”

Poor Jerry Nadler. He was caught calling violence by Antifa “a myth” over the weekend. Then, on live TV Jim Jordan shames him by showing a video of the truth at the so-called “peaceful protests.”
Democrats must rue the day Nadler decided to hold this hearing. Barr comes off as an honest man who is just doing his job despite the fact the Democrats have no problem watching as American cities burn.
