Jerry Nadler Caught FALLING ASLEEP During Testimony From Victims Of Kamala’s Border
Democratic Representative Jerry Nadler (D-NY) was spotted nodding off during a House Judiciary Committee hearing on Tuesday, sources in the room report. The hearing, “The Biden-Harris Border Crisis: Victim Perspectives,” featured heart-wrenching testimonies from families affected by the violence stemming from the Biden-Harris Administration’s open-border policies.
The committee convened at 10:00 a.m. ET, but for some, the gravity of the situation seemed to fall on deaf ears.
Nadler’s brief nap sparked immediate backlash from Republicans and border security advocates, with many calling his actions disrespectful to the victims. The hearing aimed to shed light on the devastating effects that the current border policies have had on American communities, focusing on real-life tragedies suffered by families who have lost loved ones at the hands of violent illegal immigrants.
Texas Republican Chip Roy (R-TX) was among those quick to comment, pointing out the lack of attention from the Democratic side of the room. “Hardly any Dems present – those who are…” he tweeted, followed by frustration from others in the audience, clearly disgusted by what they saw as indifference from lawmakers like Nadler.

Gunther Eagleman, a prominent commentator, didn’t hold back his criticism either. “Jerry Nadler is a POS…! He slept through the emotional testimonies given by the families of those who have lost their lives at the hands of Border Czar Harris,” Eagleman posted on social media, echoing the sentiments of many who feel the Biden-Harris administration has failed to address the crisis.

Nadler has a tendency to fall asleep during important meetings and hearings. Several staffers and colleagues, both from the Democrat and Republican sides have observed that Nadler, who has served in the House for over three decades, has slowed down considerably in recent years.
With House Republicans continuing to press for tighter border security and accountability from the administration, Nadler’s inattentiveness in the midst of such powerful testimony is certain to become another talking point for critics who argue the Democrat Party isn’t taking the border crisis seriously.
REACTIONS:
I’m so disgusted by our government. Imagine how shallow, narcissistic and uncaring you’d have to be to listen to people who are devastated by the loss of a loved one and sleep or text during their testimony. Assholes!

It should be mandatory for members of Congress to be there for any hearings. Of course, there are special circumstances, but boycotting is not one of them since this is what their job entails.

The asshattery exhibited by current Democrat legislators is disgusting. They need to be voted right out of office if all they care about are their stock investment returns and not how illegals are KILLING Americans.
