Ether Ann Wagner (r) thinks we’re all that stupid or she is. Neither option is a good thing.

Last night:

Ann Wagner @AnnLWagner
I’m a proud mother & grandmother who will never waver in my efforts to protect life – especially now as Democrats increase efforts to champion abortion even after a baby is born. Proud to be endorsed by the

7:35 PM · Sep 7, 2022

Some of the responses:

Murder? Are you fucking kidding?

Infanticide is illegal and the fact that you’d push such an untrue statement says a lot about you. Do better.

Sincerely,
A mother and grandmother

Yeah. That’s called murder. Nobody is falling for that anymore.

Wow abortion after birth — that’s a new one!! You know Ann, what a woman does with her life & body is NONE of your business. Do better!

Last I checked, lying is still a sin.

Delete this tweet & stop spreading disinformation. Once a child is born, if someone takes its life, that’s murder & we have laws for that. NO ONE is advocating for something that can’t happen.

Abortion after the baby is born”? You’re such a sick lying, disgusting person. Just grotesque beyond belief.

The sin of deception is a pervasive evil among today’s GOP.

Your false allegations deceive people – and you know it… bearing false witness against your constituents.

“Whoever is dishonest in a very little is dishonest also in much” (Luke 16:10). Voters beware.

What exactly is abortion after the baby is born?

Idk. She spouts this BS all the time.

She’s an asshole

It amazes me that people will actually consider voting for such stupid candidates.

You are such a liar, Ann Wagner

How do you do an “abortion after birth”. Unless it’s a D&C because of placenta that didn’t expel completely, but there isn’t a baby any longer. Explain please.

Ann, can you explain how your insane statement that Democrats *champion abortion AFTER a baby is born*? I’m calling BS and more lies from @AnnLWagner.

Ann Wagner (@AnnLWagner) is out of touch with actual Missourians.

Literally no Democrats in Missouri have EVER discussed the desire to make infanticide legal. Not. One.

Ann Wagner spews disinformation for political gain. She can not be trusted. [….]

So, that’s a disgusting lie, Ann.

Would you please describe the procedure of abortion “after a baby is born”?

Lmao what are they teaching you out in Ballwin? Do you ever actually think before you type or are you just spitballing the wildest stuff off the cuff?

“Abortion after birth” ? Is that what Republicans are calling school shootings now ? [….]

Gee Ann, maybe tweeting is not your thing. Come to think of it you have nothing to offer.

do you lie to jesus with that mouth?

This is a lie. Shame on you.

Ann Wagner is not pro life.

Pro life would include healthcare insurance for all, school lunches for hungry kids, mercy for migrants fleeing literal death, fighting poverty, funding kids education, and funding maternal healthcare.

Wagner is against all of that.

What is post birth abortion?

I can’t believe someone would say something so gross and obviously false, thinking it’s a winning position. Donors to that campaign might be having some serious regrets.

Probably not.

You lying extremist.

Wow! Your statement is so stupid.

That isn’t a thing Ann. Anyone that thinks that is happening should seek some help, maybe additional education from health professionals.

Really spells out that *anyone* can run for office

Is this a great country, or what?

Jesus hates liars Ann.

Jesus this woman…. Can she just go away now. It’s been such a long haul with her.

Now, Ann, this is a lie from the pits of hell where they are holding your place. There is no Democrat that supports abortion after birth. That’s murder. We support a woman’s right to make her medical care decisions with her doctor. Stahp!

You’re insufferable.

WTF is an abortion after the baby is born?

We get why you’ve never held a public town hall during your entire career as a Congresswoman.
Too busy tweeting inane garbage.

Either you’re a blatant liar and peddler of misinformation, you’re completely incapable of distinguishing fact from fiction, or just [batshit] crazy religious extremist- no matter the reason you tweeted this demented garbage you have zero business running anything anywhere ever.

You clearly don’t know the definition of abortion. Just wondering how familiar you are with female anatomy? Guessing not very.

ohh we’re saying this crazy shit outloud now i see

Lying again. If Democrats are so awful why do you have to make things up. Tell the truth Miss Bible verse, if you are able to.
Ann Wagner lies, her voting record does not.
MO-2 deserves better.

Such an ugly lie should be beneath you, the fact that it isn’t speaks volumes about your character

You’re an idiot Ann and you’re calling your followers idiots too.

That’s not a thing. There is no post birth abortion you loony toon.

What a maroon…

That really isn’t a thing – post birth abortion. You know that, right? But maybe this is your desperate way of trying to get attention and leftover worship from Trump’s base? Or maybe you just are really willfully ignorant?

Who is paying for what, Eric? Do tell.

Eric Schmitt (r) [2022 file photo}.

This evening:

Eric Schmitt @Eric_Schmitt

The Heiress Valentine is a radical liberal.

She wants to buy a US Senate seat.

Not happening. Let’s go! [….]
7:48 PM · Sep 7, 2022

Evidently, we never get out of junior high school. Is someone living rent free inside your head?

Trudy Busch Valentine (D) [2022 file photo]

Some of the responses to Eric Schmitt (r):

It certainly is terrible that anyone would buy a US Senate seat.
Would you tell us how much money Rex Sinquefield has given you directly and to the pacs that support your campaign?

There is that. Political hacks participate in unethical political hackery (June 7, 2022)

So…. Corporate Executives, Insurance companies & Real Estate companies are buying your seat? [….]
And they spent more attacking other Republicans, than defending you???
[….]

Please elaborate. If she’s “buying” it by being her biggest funder. Who is “buying” for you?

A woman with the means to fund the majority of her campaign is not asking constituents that are trying to pay their bills, to give her money. [….]
You think poor people owe you something?

Wait. Is she an old money oligarch or a radical liberal? I don’t think you even care bc this is just more disingenuous blather. The only thing you seem serious about is ignoring child abuse.

Eric backs traitorous trump. That’s all you need to know.

You’re having Missouri taxpayers buy yours.

Well, yes:

Yep, that was definitely a colossal waste of time and money.

The more you run your mouth and talk down to people, the more uplifting it becomes for your opponent. You are just a jealous man without a platform. You are what isn’t happening @Eric_Schmitt.

King Rex Sinquefield

You lie and grift for living off of the backs of hard working people.
The typical gop politician today.

That’s what you’re doing with dark money

Eric Schmitt is an extremist who want to make our medical decisions. Medical decisions should be made with a doctor not a Senator.

Vote for Trudy Busch Valentine!

For those of us concerned about the appalling amount of $$$ swirling around politics it’s aggravating that you’re running as this horrible divisive tool. No reasonable voter wants that. You could win just posting pics of your family & pork steaks. But instead, cruelty. No thanks.

I’d rather she buy it than you.

I found it very radical when you brought that nonsense lawsuit against my kids’ school. You want to demagogue your way into the Senate. I agreed with Trump that you were a worse option than Greitens for the nomination.

Gonna chainsaw something in your next ad?

In a blue gingham shirt?

She talks about healthcare for women and working for Missouri. You talk about dismantling the government and being on a holy quest. Also you signed in the trigger ban that stripped women of their rights after Roe was overturned. Who is the radical one again?

Private school boy Eric who lives in an $800,000 home is funded by Rex & hangs with a grifter [….]

Eric you are an absolutely horrible AG! I sincerely hope you lose! GFY

Remember this from June?:

So, who is buying what, Eric? It wasn’t you.

The republican majority in the Missouri General Assembly considers that a feature, not a bug.

The money for Governor Mike Parson’s (r) special session permanent revenue reduction will come out of general revenue. Among the first cuts in “discretionary” funding when the state budget inevitably falls short will be Missouri’s state universities.

Chris Kelly (D) [2014 file photo].

Today, from former state represenattive Chris Kelly (D):

Chris Kelly @repckelly
I have not heard anything from the State Universities about the proposed tax cut but it is going to be all General Revenue and is, at least, going to be $750 million, maybe twice that and will come directly out of their budgets.
Think what that means for the economy of Maryville.
11:55 AM · Sep 6, 2022

Chris Kelly @repckelly
Once upon a time Columbia, Missouri had newspaper reporters who would ask the University questions about serious Budget issues. I am just positive that U Hall is happy those days are in the past.
11:59 AM · Sep 6, 2022

The conversation:

I think it is incredibly frightening what this tax cut will mean for our state.

Chris Kelly @repckelly
Frightening or not, it is real news about a policy event that will have real consequences. I am astonished that nobody is covering it.
1:03 PM · Sep 6, 2022

So am I.

The goal might be to close state universities without football programs (St. Louis and Kansas City).

Chris Kelly @repckelly
That would require far more analysis than has been put into this plan.
1:56 PM · Sep 6, 2022

They aren’t commenting because of fear of retaliation. This is a very vindictive Governor and legislature.

Chris Kelly @repckelly
Consider the position of Dr. Mun Choi, President of the University of Missouri. Pres Choi has built a solid reputation based largely upon his ability to get along with the Republicans in Jefferson City. They are touting a tax cut that will harm the University. What will he do?
3:55 PM · Sep 6, 2022

Chris Kelly (D) served on the House Budget Committee during several legislative sessions.

Josh Hawley (r) [2016 file photo].

Late today:

Josh Hawley @HawleyMO
On this Labor Day, thanks to the working men and women who built this country – and who deserve better than the condescension and dismissive arrogance this Administration shows them every day
6:12 PM · Sep 5, 2022

6:12 p.m. – you think he almost forgot?

Seriously, champion of the working person?

Some of the responses to Josh Hawley (r):

Do you support unions? Do you oppose “right to work” for less?
Do you never cross picket line?
Do you support OSHA, a raise in the minimum wage, the NLRB?
Provide evidence of your support for working people.

Heehaw Hawley went to a private Jesuit high school then Stanford and Yale Law but he wants you all to think he’s a humble working guy.

If and when you do actual labor in your life, I’d love to hear about it. And running out of the senate chamber in fear is not labor, it’s just your cowardice showing.

Thank your banker father and the privilege of all your private school experiences and educational tourism.

So, basically this tweet has nothing to do with hard working women like me, one of your constituents( not by choice) but a dig at the man who has had some of the highest jobs numbers and done more for the the working class than you ever will. #HawleyIsNoMO

Once again, @HawleyMO is a faux populist who masquerades as a faux Teddy Roosevelt populist. He will never go into the Arena and fight for the working people of Missouri. He has distain for them. Boycott @HawleyMO

You must be a real joy at birthday parties.

Democratic s express strong support for the labor movement. The party platform notes that “when workers are strong, America is strong.

GOP sees unions as a threat to “freedom in the workplace” & urges elected officials to pass laws which limit collective bargaining rights.

You tried to overturn an election for a self-proclaimed “billionaire” who didn’t pay the working men and women who built his businesses.
Carpenters, waiters, waitresses, bartenders, construction workers, plumbers, piano tuners, painters…
He stiffed them all.
But ok, fist pumper.

Thanks to the unions for 5-day weeks, paid vacation & better wages. Unfortunately, Josh & his party have done everything they can to undermine unions.

If Josh had his way, there would be no minimum wage, no right to collective bargaining & nothing but at-will employment.

Yet you voted against everything that could possibly help the American worker. We see you.

This is some hyper inflationary “irony”with a gob of condescension…about as precious as it gets. Bravo.

Democrats support workers.

Republicans stoke cultural resentment.

I have seen no condescension or arrogance from the current administration. I have only seen them continue to make change that will better Americans’ lives, and they have done so in a pressure cooker created by you and other MAGA extremists who push lies and hate constantly.

So, really just another grievance?

So glad you’re pro-union now!

It’s not that hard to be a decent person or at least not be a jerk, but yet you seem to really struggle.

We will never run out of Josh Hawley jokes.


.

Insurrectionist says what?

Josh Hawley is anti-union.

But please go on.

You mean how they encourage unions so that workers have the power to bargain?

The only condescension here is from the Yale elitist pretending to care about the working men and women of Mo, some of whom believe your drivel. However, less of them from 2018 believe, or trust you now.

Couldn’t even do a tweet about Labor Day without making it a political statement huh?
How’s this working out for you Joshy?

Malarkey! The GOP sees working men and women as wage slaves and oppose Unions, minimum wage increases, and laws that protect workers.

Once a fascist, always a fascist.

“Every Republican accusation is a confession.” You can count on it like you can count on gravity.

Um, that sounded very condescending and dismissive.

Yes, it is.

Solidarity Forever!

When you don’t vote you get what management votes for.

Solidarity Forever

When the union’s inspiration through the workers’ blood shall run,
There can be no power greater anywhere beneath the sun;
Yet what force on earth is weaker than the feeble strength of one,
But the union makes us strong.

Solidarity forever,
Solidarity forever,
Solidarity forever,
For the union makes us strong.

[….]

Josh Hawley (r) [2016 file photo].

Last night:

Josh Hawley @HawleyMO
Joe Biden’s hate-filled and menacing rhetoric tonight was disgraceful. His behavior is increasingly erratic. And his threats against half the country – his fellow citizens – are dangerous
[….]
10:32 PM · Sep 1, 2022

What a dick.

Jason Kander @JasonKander
It’s the stuck pig that squeals.
[….]
11:10 PM · Sep 1, 2022

A few more of the responses to Josh Hawley (r):

It’s not like he raised a fist in solidarity with people about to storm the Capitol to stop certification of the 2020 election. Oh…that’s legitimate political discourse.

Problem is not the people calling out those who back violently overthrowing the republic & installing a christofascist authoritarian regime, it is those who back violently overthrowing the republic & installing a christofascist authoritarian regime [….]

[….] If you’re pissed about Biden’s speech, he was talking about you.

You’re offended bc Biden condemned political violence and defended democracy?

Remember that time you exhorted a violent mob to attack the US Capitol? And then were too big a coward to join them and face the consequences?

You’re going to jail and you know it, li’l traitor.

What about championing insurrectionists, Josh? Is that dangerous?

You cheered on insurrectionists and then ran away like a coward

I knew you’d pretend that a defense of patriotism against your seditious, dishonest attacks on our democracy was the problem, not your fascism.

#ResignHawley

You aren’t half the country, traitor.

Hate-filled?
“…tonight I’m asking our nation to come together, unite behind the single purpose of defending our democracy regardless of your ideology. We’re all called, by duty and conscience, to confront extremists who will put their own pursuit of power above all else.”

Did it scare you, Joshy-winks? Did you wanna run away? [….]

You know what’s a disgrace – you and the hypocrites aligned with a traitor, josh

I prefer democracy to authoritarianism, decency to fascism, a desire to serve all people over need to serve a small group of special interests. Josh has none of these qualities or desires. #bidenspeech

The GOP is not half the country. Biden calling out fascism is not only appropriate but it’s over due. The majority of Americans are sick and tired of all your hateful rhetoric.

Run along now
[….]

Thanks, Senator Fisting

Somebody went there.

We see it very differently. I thought he just told the truth.

A minority of republicans is not half the country, Josh. It is telling, however, that his condemnation of fascism and violence has you so upset. Very telling.

That speech was heartfelt, passionate and necessary.

History will remember on which side you stood

“Make America Great Again” – in Russian.

Refusing to let a minority destroy our democracy by promising riots if they have to accept valid elections and legal consequences is not threatening half the country.

You’re lying and projecting.

#ResignHawley

Joe Biden called out fascists tonight. If you think that’s “menacing,” what does that say about you?
And the MAGA fascists are about 12 % of the country, Josh. They’re the ones threatening us. And we’re done with them.

He’s only against fascists. Know any? Oh, hey, it’s you.
[….]

Read slowly…
“…tonight I’m asking our nation to come together, unite behind the single purpose of defending our democracy regardless of your ideology. We’re all called, by duty and conscience, to confront extremists who will put their own pursuit of power above all else.”

“If you’re complaining about a speech condemning fascism, it might be time for a long look in the mirror.”

By the way, are you ‘running out’ of excuses for Trump?
[….]

I see you spreading love and peace…nope

You could be talking about yourself and SO many of your colleagues. The mirrors are being held up to you all. And none of you like it. Almost as if, when criticised, you all turn into, I dunno, flakes of snow?

Not at all, Josh. It’s your behavior that’s been consistently disgraceful

Hypocrite much?

I am so proud of Pres. Biden. He called you and your people what you are. Fascists.

No threats. He just called MAGA out for what it is.
And now your feelings are hurt.
[….]

The confederacy wasn’t a big fan of Lincoln either.

You’re upset, Josh. Have you tried running away?
