LIVE | Democratic Georgia Senator Jon Ossoff Takes Aim At President Trump | US Politics | N18G

Published | Video Starts at 10:46

Maybe you saw Jay Clayton, the president's nominee to lead our intelligence services, refuse again and again while under oath to affirm Donald Trump's defeat in the 2020 election. Or maybe you saw Pete Hegseth before the Senate, refus[ed] to recant his lies about the war in Iran. And there's something uniquely despicable about lying a nation into war, treating citizens as fools, and the selfless patriots who serve as Pawns. Remember earlier this year, they claimed there was an imminent nuclear threat. (10:46–10:54)
