Eric Schmitt
[April 10, 2025]
Shutting down the USAID grift is good policy AND good politics.
How do you justify spending millions of taxpayer dollars on Guatemalan sex changes? You can’t. It’s impossible.
The Left has backed themselves into a corner where they’re defending the indefensible.
[….]

Some of the responses:

No it’s not. You’re giving away power to China. What gets me, I hear many say the money should be spent on our most vulnerable. However, this Republican administration working to shutdown FEMA (edited to be more accurate), fired government workers, made cuts to veterans, and working to make cuts to Medicare and Medicaid. So I ask, Where is the money going?

Vote NO on SAVE Act.
A yes vote is against married women’s right to vote! It is an extraordinary measure that is unnecessary and unfairly affects women.

Feeding hungry children, building good will, cultivating allies, fighting poverty, preventing death and disease–all that sounds good and important to me.

Tell that to charities like world relief a Christian organization or Della Lamb who works with families in Kansas City or the largest recipient of USAID Catholic charities. How do you justify taking their funding with no warning? You can’t. It’s impossible.

i used to be for Catholic Charities, then they started doing their thing with illegals who should have been turned in and returned to their country.

“No Human Being is Illegal”

Misleading lies. These are tiny bits of USAID funding that should be fixed with a scalpul. The republican administration is harming the US and our allies but China is very pleased.

You are your cronies are making the US irrelevant in the world by cutting USAID. China and other countries will now benefit from filling the void. USAID made up about 1.2% of federal spending. Seems like a small price to pay to keep up our good name.
Putin must be very happy with you Eric Schmitt

You are complicit

You’re cruel!

That is beyond cruel… It is criminal. Stop calling yourself pro-life when you take away funding for things like food and medicine. You have no compassion for human life whatsoever.

They never do. Pure Greed.

We were all getting tired of clean water, well run national parks, and tuberculosis-free public spaces. Thank you for your brave leadership in freeing Americans from these oppressions, Senator!

Sycophant! USAID was never a problem until Jan 20. You’d rather hurt MO than stand up.

The indefensible would be the starving children-you are a complacent clown. Who has been bought who doesn’t share my views who doesn’t listen to his constituents. Your time is limited because we’re gonna vote you out

Looks like you have tons of support on this thread ERIC

Ask Missouri farmers whose contracts for grain were cancelled.

Hold a town hall and show us the proof of these talking points. You are representing Missourians no matter who we voted for. A town hall is needed !

Unconscionable that they shut everything down without discernment.

Sticking it to your constituents as always. The 10% tariff alone is a $2500 per household annual tax hike!

The REAL grift is billion dollar companies and individuals getting subsidies and tax breaks while Americans survive paycheck to paycheck.

Cherry pick items that seem ridiculous. Are there any good policies in USAID?
U will go along with Trump with whatever he does or says! Do u ever listen to him speak???

Stop with the lying, dude.

So about that town hall…

Today has not been a good day. We are being led by the stupidest and cruelest people alive.
1. The House passed the SAVE Act, paving the way for passage by the Senate. This will disenfranchise millions of voters. Essentially eliminates voter registration by mail or online. Requires proof of citizenship each time you register to vote. Democrats introduced an amendment to protect married women from being penalized. But REPUBLICANS VOTED THAT DOWN a Democrat amendment introduced to protect married women from being penalized under the legislation. CALL YOUR SENATORS.
2. The House narrowly adopted a Republican budget blueprint for slashing taxes for wealthy and cutting government spending. This happened after hardline conservatives concerned that it would balloon the nation’s debt ended a revolt that had threatened to derail President Trump’s domestic agenda. GOP Leaders can now move forward with crafting major legislation to enact a huge tax cut, financed with deep reductions in spending on federal programs (Social Security & Medicaid) and push it through Congress over Democratic opposition. CALL YOUR SENATORS.
3. The FDIC, the regulator that monitors our banks and backstops our deposits via its insurance fund, has been infiltrated by DOGE. CROSS YOUR FINGERS?
4. RFK Jr. claims that by September we will know what has caused the autism epidemic and will be able to eliminate those exposures. LAUGH UPROAROUSLY AT THE INSANTY OF IT ALL.

MAGA: Moronic, Arrogant, Grifters and Assholes!

That is the most obtuse example possible…what a complete snake 🐍

Millions of $$$$ for sex changes? You have farmers in this state who sold food into that program and now have to find other ways to survive in this hellscape you’re making. The amount of fraud, waste, and abuse was soooo much smaller than you make it out to be (and y’all are increasing military budget to $trillion when they cant pass an audit)- Eric Schmitt your are a problem. Sowing seeds of division for your own benefit.

The House narrowly voted to approve the GOP budget blueprint by a vote of 216-214, which aims to make massive cuts to Medicaid and give massive tax breaks to the wealthiest Americans.

The right wingnut controlled House.

Are you in some sort of gaslighting competition with Tommy Tuberville?

Tommy Tuberville (r) is stupid. Well, okay, it’ll be a close contest.

You work for us, mother fucker!

Said the actual grifter and his grifting cronies. PEOPLE. IN. MISSOURI. SEE. YOU. You can’t hide behind the lies and gaslighting anymore, mean girl.

Lie! Maybe fact check your distraction. What exactly are you doing to protect your constituents from doge cutting medicaid, medicaid and social security? And why is the current administration tanking our economy? What are YOU doing for Missourians Senator Schmitt???

Gotta stay in Trump’s good graces! China and Russia now suppling some of that aid.

The total right wing universe is built on outrage and grievance. And maybe you want to explain to Missouri farmers why they lost income from USAID.

You’re a piece of garbage. The only person you care about is you, but apparently people like you, I’m as educated as you are and I find you deplorable, ignorant and just want to control people. Your farmers that find you amazing have no idea that you are not on their side. You will just say whatever to keep the money flowing in your pocket.

Senator how much money did u and your fellow Maga Senators make on insider trading yesterday? Asking for a friend!!!

Your a liar, back up what you say. Total BULLSHIT and also tell that to the Missouri farmers who lost half their income when USAID was shut down. You sir are an idiot of the highest order. RESIGN!!

JAN 6!! NEVER FORGET!!

There’s that.

Eric, it’s really hard to understand what you’re saying with Trump’s d*ck in your mouth all the time.

Blah blah blah……. Sex change, boys in girls sports, trans people. Those are maga rally cries. Out of 100s of millions of Americans you hear of maybe two boys in girls sports and republicans win elections Off of repeating that over and over for the uneducated….. if NOBODY showed up to an event with a boy in a girls sport it would never happen! Instead Magats vote to get rid of everything that benefits them to ensure rich tax breaks…. Make it make sense!

More Republican lies using phony transgender issues to justify their unconstitutional actions. Schmitt is one of the worst of the worst.

Why don’t you do your fucking job and stop kissing Trump’s behind and stop his tariffs tantrum. He’s wrecking the economy on a plan that has no chance of working and once he’s ruined the economy you’ll be out a job. Maybe selling apples next to my stand since he’s killing my retirement savings. You punk ass bitch!

You are a horrible person. May you burn in hell for all of the death and destruction your complicity has wrought.

lol, you seem stable, not an unhinged nutjob at all.

The only nut jobs are the people who advocated for the dismantling of the USAID. And they couldn’t even do it by telling the truth — that its eradication would cause the deaths of millions of the world’s poorest through the cancellation of life-saving medicines and famine relief. Instead, they made up a bunch of bullshit because they knew it wouldn’t be politically palatable to explicitly say that they were ok with condemning millions of non-whites to death.

You don’t care about anyone but your selfish.Your playing a grift with the stock market & playing with the lives of women & children. You’ll go down in history as a fascist sycophant. We will revolt & we will throw you out of office.

okay…so you are telling me that much of that money is going to gender affirming surgery? come on man. quit with this. why so much focus on this? It’s literally less than 2% of the population, so it’s not breaking the bank and that is not what most of the money in USAID is going to. stop with this rhetoric. Talk about all of the other programs that are being cut?! I think you identify as Christian? Should we not help others if we can?

Probably not attributable to Gandhi.

Yeah, might as well let a South African drug addict steal Congressionally approved money from American farmers while calling those farmers parasites and claiming massive fraud was found without any indictments or arrests. Go fuck yourself, liar.

Damn Eric Schmitt you have no idea what it is to be an American. I’m so tired of you saying the left is what’s wrong with this country. Wake up it’s the far right extremism is what’s wrong. You are a fascist. You want people to beg cheat and steal. Take away our rights so we don’t have a say anymore. What about what 47 just did he told every to buy now. Stock is low buy nòw. The next day he put a 90 day pause on tariffs. And the Stock rose. That’s Insider trading. That’s illegal. But what do you expect from a convicted criminal on 34 felony counts. You disgust me. Eric Schmitt you need to resign. You were elected to take care of all your constitutes. Not just your Maga base. Your pathetic

Guatemalan sex changes? You gotta be kidding me. Fascist rhetoric ERIC.

No better policy than denying starving children food and stopping much needed medical assistance from getting to those who desperately need it. But keep making up phony claims about where the aid is going if it helps you sleep better at night

Your mouth moves, and you’re lying. You MAGAs bring up all these lies as a fear tactic to uneducated MAGAs.

You’re a jerk! I’m ashamed to say that you represent my state. You definitely don’t represent me! You’re a gutless wonder! [….]

Let’s let people starve

Your parties obsession with Trans people is telling. Get fucked you nazi piece of shit.

Never was on you’re radar until President Yippy and his greedy sidekick went after starving children.

You spend way too much time kissing the orange turds ass after drinking the Kool-aid. You are a disgrace to the state of Missouri. People are dying and you don’t care. Such a jackass

Cruelty is the mother’s milk of MAGA

You didn’t find any grift, jackass. All you are doing is condemning many to death while enabling China to make further inroads in the developing world. You are both vile AND a damn fool.

at what point will you stop giving lip service to a man determined to destroy our way of life? When will you stop the lies? The money wasn’t for sex charges! We all know that. You look like an idiot or a lying POS for posting it.

You’re an idiot

You don’t seem to realize that the USAID didn’t just help other countries but it was a huge plan for success for American farmers! You know, the same farmers you want a bailout for now because of the Dumpster and his successful tariffs! Fricking bastards!

You are a pathetic dangerous pathological LIAR. You’re also a bigoted piece of shit.

Fuck you.

So many fucking lies, Eric. You will say anything

China thanks you.
