Dan Bongino Goes Full 'All Lives Matter' During Congressional Hearing on Police Brutality

George Floyd’s brother was among the witnesses invited by Democrats to speak at a House Judiciary Committee hearing on police brutality Wednesday morning. Republicans invited Fux Noise contributor Dan Bongino.

Bongino, a former U.S. Secret Service agent who has made several unsuccessful bids for Congress, used his opening statement to endorse the “few bad apples” theory of police misconduct. But by the time he was getting questioned by Rep. Hakeem Jeffries (D-NY), he was going full “All Lives Matter.”

Jeffries listed off the many familiar names of black men and women who have been unjustly killed by police officers. “But Mr. Bongino, the police are at times able to show restraint under very difficult circumstances, is that correct?” the congressman asked. After Bongino answered in the affirmative, Jeffries listed off some well-known mass shooters, like James Holmes and Dylann Roof, who were not killed by police despite being heavily armed.

“The police somehow arrested Dylann Roof without incident and even treated him to Burger King,” Jeffries said. “Mr. Bongino, Dylann Roof is white, is that correct?”

“I don’t see where you are going with this,” Bongino replied, adding: “It was an awful thing he did, whether he was white or black.” After another similar example, Bongino said, “I don’t know why you’re making a racial thing out of it.”

1. I don't know why you're making a racial thing out of it.

Oh really?

You don't know?

Have you LOOKED OUTSIDE THE FUCKING WINDOW?

Hundreds of THOUSANDS of people across the country are wondering WHY race is a factor in whether or not a suspect is treated with Burger King versus why a man who (probably unknowingly) passed a fake $20 gets choked to death on camera.

That's what this whole fucking hearing is about. Do you still wonder what we are discussing today, sir?

2. No one expected him to say anything different did they?

The GOP invited him for just this reason. To deny the actual problem.

3. Amazing to me to see 'all lives matter' negated by the same ones saying 'all lives matter'

All lives matter to some who say don't talk to me about that life.

If all lives matter, why are some so triggered when others talk about one of those lives.
