Watch: Cory Booker 'seething with anger' as he yells at DHS chief Kirstjen Nielsen
Washington Examiner ^ | 16 Jan 18 | Anna Giaritelli |

Posted on 01/16/2018 11:56:48 AM PST by SkyPilot

en. Cory Booker, D-N.J., was enraged during a Senate Judiciary Committee hearing Tuesday and admitted he was "seething with anger" over President Trump's alleged "shithole comments" and a Cabinet official's statement that she did not recall the incident.

“I had tears of rage," Booker bellowed at Secretary of Homeland Security Kirstjen Nielsen in reference to when he first heard of Trump's "shithole countries" remark last week. "And for you not to feel that hurt and that pain and to dismiss the questions of my colleagues, with tens of millions Americans hurting right now because they're worried about what happened in the White House ..."

"When the commander in chief speaks or refuses to speak, those words don't just dissipate like mist in the air. They fester. They become poison. They give license to bigotry and hate in our country," he said.

"When ignorance and bigotry is allied with power, it's a dangerous force in our country. Your silence and your amnesia is complicity," Booker told Nielsen.

Booker is doing this b.s. because he knows it will be an instant viral video shared among millions of Dimocraps. He is pandering to the Leftard base, period.

Facts and reality don’t matter, only the raging tearful sense of victimhood counts.

Of course no one should be subjected to this kind of incivility, but it comes with the territory.

The fact that she’s a woman should play no part in this.

Add to that the distinct possibility that she got this job because she was a woman and not a man.

Booker is also the clown who received $100 million from Zuckerberg to improve Newark public schools, and achieved exactly nothing. Where did all that money go?????

Booker lacks self-control, unravels easily.

He was so patronizing and harassing ,I was shocked. I have reviewed her testimony and his and she was awesome and extremely competent. I was very impressed. I was unfamiliar with her before but his conduct was repulsive , rude and sexists and he should be severely sanctioned. He was a bullying bastard!! Unbecoming of an elected official and embarrassing to the idiots that so carelessly voted for him. Pathetic conduct.

“Cory Booker ‘seething with anger’ as he yells at DHS chief Kirstjen Nielsen”

Nevertheless she persisted. Nice to see strong conservative women not backing down from a leftist thug. She should have told him to go climb a tree and shut his stupid face.

On the other hand, in support of Booker, he knows all about shitholes.
As mayor of Newark, he presided over one of the worst shitholes in the US!

“Booker, both a poofter and a drama queen, as well as a Barry Obummer wannabe, is as much of a joke as Maxine Waters and Sheila Jackson Lee.”

Corey Booker. Another professional Negro.

She was saying that the President believes that people with skills and education should have priority vis a vis immigration. Leahy paused for a long time, and then said to her: “You mean WHITE PEOPLE!

I’d have shoved that statement so far down his throat with a, “Senator, that is a racist statement, I have met many many foreigners from Asia, Africa, the Caribbean, South America and yes Europe too who teach in our colleges and yes I’d like to welcome them as legal citizens. Sure I’d love to see American citizens get those jobs in Silicon Valley but if non are available then, I like that we can bring the educated and smartest here to help us grow.”

That photo of Booker is meme-worthy. His over-the-top performance is further proof that the Dems are grasping at straws.
