Missouri Attorney General Andrew Bailey (r) has been a busy little anti-choice bee.

Attorney General Andrew Bailey
[July 25, 2025]
I will not allow a death factory to lie to Missourians in pursuit of cutting costs and boosting revenue.
[The Washington Times – “Missouri AG sues Planned Parenthood for ‘disinformation’ about risks of abortion pil”]

Some of the responses:

—–

Your body, your choice. Wait! You can’t have children? Sorry, but you should have NO say in what women do with their bodies! Missourians agree. We voted for Amendment3. We believe in a woman’s right to determine her future and her family.

so youre good to murder babies?

You think a blastocyst is a baby? Do you do much babysitting for embryos? I know, to you an egg is a pre-born chicken and an acorn is a pre-born tree. You like to count your chickens before they hatch. If you believe this, then don’t get an abortion! It’s that simple. Otherwise, mind your own business!

—–

STFU Mo. is Pro Life Moron !

wrong MAGA Missouri is pro-birth. Once the kid is born, you could give a fuck about it. Missouri ranks 30th in infant mortality, 24th in education.

—–

Any gun distribution locations receiving the same treatment

You don’t have the evidence.

Mifepristone is a medication that is used for various applications. Some potential uses include:
Managing early pregnancy loss
Inducing labor
Treating endometriosis and fibroids
Managing hyperglycemia associated with Cushing’s syndrome
As an emergency contraceptive

interesting, Missourians voted for amendment 3, but that seems to be ignored. Support what voters voted for. Now

—–

You need a CT scan.

You need an appointment with God… Did you know that Ozzy accepted Jesus as his Savior before he died? Turn to God not the Demon-rat party.

Fuck off.

Jesus wouldn’t talk to people like that. He didn’t call names because someone was more moral than he.

—–

That’s rich, coming from Andrew “Disinformation Bailey”!

Are you a medical doctor and a lawyer? If so, Brad Bradshaw would like to speak with you.

Is that why Mo has the death penalty?

Safer than Viagra, but you won’t talk about that.

So you’re resigning? FINALLY

You are a money wasting factory!

He’s upholding the legacies of Josh Hawley (r) and Eric Schmitt (r).

Your willful ignorance is astounding

You’re a turd factory.

Sir, Planned Parenthood literally provides life-saving treatment. To call it a death factory is a disservice to the women you represent.

A. Bailey is the one maliciously spreading lies that are threatening the lives of women and girls. Those being threatened are our sisters, aunts, daughters, granddaughters, nieces, neighbors, friends… anyone having a miscarriage.

How about the illegal gerrymandering?

You are the opposite of prolife

Planned Parenthood is women’s healthcare. MO GOP policies kills women.

Give it up douchebag

Bailey is a lying sack of vomit. He thinks A.G. stands for “Almost Governor”.

Heh.

You are wasting our tax dollars. You should be investigated.

You’re a fucking moron.

The people of Missouri voted. Take your fascists bullshit elsewhere

What percent of Mifepristone users in Missouri died as a result of that use? What is our statewide Maternal Mortality rating? If you do not have these statistics statewide or even country wide, you have no case except hate and prejudice. Any woman currently who wishes to use abortion pills has a good case to sue you for denying them that right under Amendment 3. Which of those two scenarios frightens you most?

I will not allow an organization to set women free from the tyranny of males who would keep them barefoot and pregnant.
Fixed it.
MAGA hates your kids and shields pedophiles.

The death factory is the GOP. Healthcare cuts. USAID cuts. All resulting in the deaths of tens of thousands so far thanks to this administration.

Just made a big donation to Planned Parenthood in your name. You’re exactly like the Taliban and a danger to all Women.

Meanwhile, Bailey lies to Missourians and attacks women’s rights. You are a disgrace.

The disinformation is originating from your office.

Please keep wasting our tax dollars fighting a medication with less adverse effects than birth control or viagra. If this was a true consumer protection issue you’d be suing the manufacturer.

[….]
SPRINGFIELD, Mo. – A “whites only” community says they are looking at coming to the Springfield area.

The group, called Return to the Land (RTTL), did not specify where in the Springfield area they were looking to potentially locate.

[….]

According to RTTL’s website, they are a private member association exclusively made for white people. Jewish people are also barred from membership. [….]

Yesterday:

City of Springfield, MO
[July 29, 2025]

The Springfield City Council and City Manager David Cameron have been made aware of media reports regarding a group calling itself “Return to the Land” and its alleged proposal to create a “whites-only” enclave in the Springfield area. While no one from this group has contacted the City directly, we want to state in the strongest possible terms: there is no place in Springfield, or anywhere, for such a divisive and discriminatory vision.

Efforts to create developments based on racial exclusion are not only contrary to our laws, it also runs counter to the spirit of who we are and who we aspire to be. Segregationist thinking has no place in our city’s present or future.

While it is improbable that such a project could legally or practically occur within city limits, silence is not an option. As a regional leader, we will not stand idly by in the face of attempts to revive outdated, harmful ideologies. Springfield moves forward by bridging differences, fostering belonging, and building a stronger, more united community for all.
[….]

Some of the responses:

I appreciate your visibility and loud denunciation of this group. Thank you for taking a stand.

Easily the best thing y’all have said all year. Diversity is one of the most beautiful things we can ever embrace as human beings.

I think this statement is a good first step. It would be helpful for the city to demonstrate exactly how they are “bridging differences, fostering belonging, and building a stronger united community.” What actions are being taken to meet those goals, and what data do you have to show growth in those areas?

Thank you for stepping up leaders. There is absolutely NO place in Springfield, Greene County, Missouri, or this great nation for racially motivated groups who isolate themselves and segregate against others, regardless of what ethnicity they fall under. We MUST get past this racial divide. It says more about the individual who hates than it does about the group that is hated. Introspect leads to respect.

but there is lots of room in springfield for classism…. which is one of the leading causes of racism. gotta keep someone on the bottom and its easy when you divide people & other them.
anyways….. cant say you are anti-racist while supporting classism. just remember that

Why do you believe that “classism” exists?
How are these ”classes” created?
What’s really preventing anyone from reaching any level of “class” they desire to reach?
Aren’t there many races included in this “classism” that’s thrown around often?
If you’re not where you want to be, you have the power to change that. There’s no one holding anyone back except the individuals themselves. Some have to work harder than others to get there, but the opportunities are there.
The people who seem to love to camp out on terms like “classism” as excuses for their current state are the same ones who complain when others succeed in spite of their circumstances. They celebrate a success story, for a short time, then expect the successful to bow down to those who refuse to grow themselves out of their mental state of scarcity. The same ones who when given the chance would otherwise complain that it wasn’t enough or that it should be made easier for them to achieve. Anything worthwhile will always be uphill. Consider the hills the successful had to climb, and the hills they continue to climb.
If you’re not happy with where you are in life, don’t blame “classism”, blame the person in the mirror. I personally know many people from around the world who have come from a long line of nothing to achieve greatness and massive success. They didn’t stay in a scarcity state of mind or inabilities. They believed themselves capable of abundance and potential! And they worked hard to get there. Some of them are now motivational speakers and authors. If they can, you can, others can. My personal story is a testament to this truth as well, which I won’t go into here, but is in the book I’m writing and the speeches I have given.

pretending that every single person who works hard “makes it” is a really ignorant viewpoint. but clearly you have been someone to benefit from people being “less than you” so there isnt an argument to be had.
you see how you instantly reduced my life to one of “scarcity” and “not working hard” – when that isnt my life at all.
the truth is america is set up to cheer on the people who have worked the least – who have the most generational wealth, while telling people who literally do not have access to better jobs or opportunities (lest they risk their life many times over – like i had to to gain opportunities) that they need to “work harder” while someone is profiting off their work and they dont get paid enough for food or shelter…..
poor people DO WORK HARD. and that is the problem with classism. classist people like you* refuse to recognize that our society point blank screws people over.
typical white male who cant admit any privilege.
funny how i can admit i have privilege just because i was able to get a car to start working at 16 – an opportunity lot of teens dont have, who are stuck in abusive homes – who then get released into an abusive, classist society that doesnt value labor and doesnt have a government to protect people from corporations. – but you think you just “wOrkEd HarDer than everyone else”

Glad to see this statement. I was concerned that silence was all we would hear.

Ya know, Springfield, I like you sometimes.

This is the only correct statement. Bravo!

Thank you for addressing this. I hope you do everything you can to make Springfield diverse and inclusive.

Good job, Springfield

Thank you for making a statement

Appreciate the proactive & definitive statement!

Thank you for this statement! I had every confidence this would be the City’s response but am so happy to see it!

Yes!! The absolute right stance to take!!!

Thank you for speaking out and letting others know where our community stands on this matter! United We Stand! #diversitymatters

Springfield still has a LOOOONG way to go in mitigating racial & socioeconomic tensions, inequality & disparity..but this is definitely a step in the right direction.

slamming the door in the face of ignorant groups like this is definitely the correct response. I bet they put ketchup on their steaks.

Thank you for issuing a formal, strongly worded statement. At the very least, we know where our city leaders stand in the matter and that makes a difference.

Thank you so much for this strong statement in opposition to this “Return to the Land” endeavor. I appreciate the City speaking out on this!

Thank you for not staying silent on this matter!

This was an important post. Let’s continue the words with actions. I was horrified to read Springfield is in their sights, I want a hometown that’s inclusive and thriving with kindness.

Thank you for standing up for what is right. I say, if they want this so badly, they can all go far away and form their own little bigoted community island and stop spreading hate.

Excellent model for speaking against hate for our city! Well done.

Better than Kehoe who declined to make such a statement.

Thank you for standing up for the city we all love and the folks who all make it what it is.

Thank you for issuing this statement. Give the times we’re are living any voice calling for unity and non discrimination is very welcome.

This statement makes me proud to be born, raised, and residing in Springfield. Thank you for being true leaders! Thank you for standing up for what is right!

And on.

“Remain calm, all is well…”

Mark Alford (r) [2023 file photo].

Today from Mark Alford (r):

Congressman Mark Alford
[July 29, 2025]
Can’t stop, won’t stop WINNING!
These historic trade agreements from President Donald J. Trump deliver landmark investments in U.S. industries & finally put Americans FIRST.
[….]

Some of the responses:

Cuts to local Food Banks has decreased the amount of food available.

Do..do you know how tariffs work?

He obviously does not or just believes that his constituents are idiots.

a whole lot are sadly. Like real real dumb.

Why is Walmart raising its prices? My Folgers 33oz coffee went from $16 to $20 due to the tariffs. Twenty bucks for a container of coffee.

you are aware that coffee is not grown in America? I hope you don’t like wearing clothes because almost all garments are shipped to the USA from other countries for decorating.

You’re just needlessly paying more for goods and thanking Trump for the privilege.

And, we don’t have U.S. suppliers! If you think Trump is bringing manufacturing and farming back to the U.S. you are truly naive.
U.S. farmers are already hurting, thanks in part to losing the majority of their labor force.
Regarding manufacturing, we live in a GLOBAL economy. Nothing is PURELY Made In America, as parts and supplies for products come from all over the world.
Good god, man! Do you know nothing???

Tariffs like all of their policies do nothing but put the burden on the people buying the goods i.e. you and I and everyone that purchases goods made or assembled elsewhere. It is a TAX and we pay it. no more no less. Problem is the indoctrinated believe that the country sending the goods or assembling them are being taxed and nothing could be further from the truth. Just like Mexico will pay for the wall. [….]

Mark would you name the infrastructure projects you have proposed in your district

I’d like to know Congressman Mark Alford’s plan for the 2 hospitals that will close in the 4th District due to his Big BS Bill becoming law.

[….] it’s the same old plan. Pull yourself up by your bootstraps and hope you don’t die on the 2 hour trip to the nearest hospital. Then, if you make it in time, hope the hospital doesn’t bankrupt you.

My money bet is, Mark Alford has absolutely no clue how anything in the 4th would be impacted by his Big BS Bill. No clue. He’s not smart enough.

The CEO of the [….] hospital [….] gave an interview on CNN where he decried the BBB cuts, as 4 out of every 5 patients admitted to that hospital are on Medicaid. Think of what the Medicaid cuts are going to do not only to that hospital, but the entire surrounding area – jobs, economy, tax base, etc.

I see no answers to any questions here. Maybe Mark has a concept of a plan to answer our questions. 🙄

Congressman Mark Alford is clueless. I believe he either posts his bullshit and runs, or has one of his “staff” drop the posts, and not knowing what they are posting or saying walk away with him. Either way they seem scared to engage in two way communication…

These are concepts of a plan, no hard, signed documents, just frameworks.

Please explain to your constituents how exporting energy (LNG) is a positive policy…we’re all ears spin doctor.

And nothing is signed yet.

If I was winning so much, I’d be having huuuuge town halls at all the biggest venues in my district. Instead, Alford is hiding out in little towns at even smaller coffee shops.

I agree. In one tiny town I know he’s scheduled for maybe an hour in an old building that would hold maybe 30 packed in tightly counting his “team” of course.

And, one of them is scheduled on a Monday morning.

yeah, it’s not for working people.

You’re going to have such fun at your upcoming town halls…

None of these have been signed and approved by Congress, just concepts of plans.

Congress doesn’t matter anymore. The GOP wiped their as$ with the Constitution and handed the entire thing over to the Orange Russian, lock, stock, and barrel. Congress is irrelevant.

U.S. automakers will be raising the prices on vehicles made in Mexico and Canada and parts they use from these countries to cover the 25 percent tariff. Trump’s big shitty deal with Japan only has a 15 percent tariff on their cars. Made a similiar deal with Britain. How is that helping American manufacturing or buyers?

This isn’t how tariffs work you idiot
Thanks for ruining the economy even further. I love having no hope for our future.

Procter & Gamble announced it will raise prices on about 25% of its U.S. products starting in August as it works to offset rising tariff-related expenses.

These are possibilities… not done deals…might want to let your constituents know that.

Are these funds to cancel the 4 trillion debt from the One Big Beautiful Bill or to pay for the billionaire tax cuts?

You are so out of touch with voters.

Oh great, get ready for the prices of semiconductor devices, computer peripherals, automobile parts, electric machinery, textiles and garments, wheat and animal feeds, coconut oil, and information technology/business process outsourcing services to go up in the US. Thanks Mark 🙄

Will you please STOP lying to constituents?! This isnt how tariffs work at all.

Another lie from Mark Alford and the Republicans. Go figure. Just embarrassing. The Republicans and this embarrassment of an administration have no clue how to run government. Just embarrassing

Tariffs = higher prices. How is that winning???

Trumptax is gouging the citizens of this state and the country!

I’ll be waiting. So far, I’m not getting any benefit. I’d like to know if you’ve benefitted, especially since you are a bootlicker for the Grifter-in-Chief.

You’re a hack

BTW 50% tax on steel & aluminum from EU…cheaper now for Ford, Chevy etc…to manufacture in the EU , ship to the USA at 15% tariff (tax on consumers).

Tariffs suck! So, all the deals just further taxed U.S. citizens. Wonderful.

I’ve noticed these “frameworks” keep getting announced but we never see signed, long term agreements. It goes back to President Trump’s first term when he got Ford to agree not to move production to Mexico and then less than a year later Ford closed a US plant and moved production to Mexico. Businessman Trump never met a contract he wasn’t willing to break and now President Trump has made US policy completely transactional rather than durable and no one in the world can take America at its word.

Why are you so quiet about the Epstein files? Are you content with your orange emporer being a frequent flier?

The EU has already stated the 600 billion would be from private industry and they have no control over that. Sin of omission Congressman Mark Alford. Ask for penance.

Who gives a shit! Where are the Epstein files!

You mean you cannot stop fleecing American consumers.

I see we’re going to have to pay more for goods coming from the Philippines and EU. Sounds like not a win for us.
We’ll see if the investments actually materialize.
All this on top of him being on the list, along with other powerful pedos, and you’re just sitting there doing nothing about it. You are complicit. You are enabling. You’re just as guilty.

Peddling propaganda for a pedo is not a good look Mark

More taxes on the American people! Idiots!

Trying to put a bow on a turd. Bravo dipshit. And FYI, America first started with the KKK.

And who pays for those tariffs? The end consumer, which is us. Thanks for applauding our rising prices.🙄

All misleading

Can’t stop, won’t stop lying and grifting the American public. Idiot.

Raised prices from EU countries by 13%. Tariffs were 2%. Now 15%. Dumb asses pretend like consumers don’t pay tariffs.

So tell us all Little Mark
How’s the price of gas? Looks like it’s still high to most of us!
How about the price of groceries? Seems like they have all increased! Some double digit increases!
How about the price of beef? Damn have you been to a store? Ground beef alone up more that 10% last month alone!
How about home prices? Most can’t buy a home let alone rent!
Oh but Shittler did something?
Do you not understand that we the people pay all these tariffs! We pay them by price increases! We the people are sick and tired of this BS!

Release the entire Epstein FBI files
The distractions are not going to work
Americans want names and dates

Mark you support a pedophile, good to know you have zero morals as well. I guess if getting away with having sex with underage girls is winning then congratulations. I hope hell is warm enough for you.

Oh yeah and tariffs are a tax on the American people

So you approve of consumers paying higher prices? I have seen prices rise significantly!

Frameworks are not agreements, which you know. Stop spreading lies, which you won’t.

Tariffs are taxes on US consumer this is to pay for his stupid billionaire tax cut.

Clown.

While Hawley is trying to give everyone $600 back. Basically a stimulus because your stupidity

Josh Hawley (r) voted for the bill, too.

Josh Hawley (r) [2024 file photo].

You nazis are killing citizens with your continued transfer of wealth from us. What the fuck, Mark? You work for us not the taco felon.

AMERICAN CONSUMERS PAY THE TARIFFS.
AMERICAN CONSUMERS PAY THE TARIFFS.
AMERICAN CONSUMERS PAY THE TARIFFS.

Congressman Mark Alford please tell me how this is lowering prices at the grocery store for your constituents in Cass County?!? Have you ever taken a course in economics? Tariffs are paid by the consumer!! I’m NOT winning! All my household expenses are going up and my fixed income is NOT!
Do your job! Which includes your vote to demand the release of the Epstein files! Many wealthy white men belong in prison for their crimes! Let’s see their names!

Those things help corporations. Not consumers.

Do you think we are naive enough to believe that we won’t be the consumers paying the the tariffs? Paying more for imported goods is not a win!

Why do you think we are winning when we have to pay more money for imported goods, including food that we don’t even grow in the US?

There is much hilarity in the social media responses:

How many backdoors are you gonna sneak out of?

Ah, yes, Belton, Missouri.

Looks more like the Epstein vacation tour

That’s this week.

The House doesn’t go back until September and the best you can do is 4 days of PR stops in the smallest communities. When are the meetings for Columbia, Lee’s Summit, Belton, Sedalia, Raymore or Warrensburg?

he’s in Raymore almost every week

Maybe so, but his Raymore office won’t return calls.

then it should be convenient for him to have a town hall there, shouldn’t it?

he did one in Belton last month, 3 miles away

if you call what he did a town hall.

With “the stenographer”.

Not one in Columbia, imagine that

nor the Harrisonville area?

there is one in Harrisonville at 8:30 am. I think it’s the first one listed. Such a weird time.

The Funky Buffalo is a very small coffee shop. Considering the larger population in that area, wouldn’t a larger venue be a more responsible choice?

no. Because he is afraid of large crowds.

More alford photo ops

Congressman Mark Alford Is there a process to be allowed to ask a question or put on the agenda??

No Johnson County, Warrensburg?

Mark Alford [….] we’ve been there a bunch
Did big town hall there previously
We have 24 counties to cover

Uh, “town halls”? Two years ago.

You are such a weenie. Columbia wants you!

Scared to come back to Belton/Raymore

Mark Alford [….] nope we did one there last month

Mark Alford you mean the one that was by invitation only and was limited to like 20 people. Gotta wonder if they were prescreened so that they wouldn’t ask any hard questions

With “the stenographer”.

Mark Alford […] kcur hosted that and set the rules

Because a sitting member of Congress has no input whatsoever when it comes to engaging with their constituents. If you’re so powerless why are you still doing this? Just asking.

Events during the week, during working hours and at very small locations. It’s almost as if you don’t really want people to show up. What a sad and scared little man.

Coming soon: Congressman Alford meets with 2-3 preselected elderly racists in a variety of rural tiny venues during work hours. MAGA!

Too scared to face all your constituents, I see. When you’re ready to listen to all, including your under-represented constituents in Columbia, we’re ready to talk.
YOU work for US. ALL OF US, even the ones you conveniently ignore.

These are all the safe places Mark could find. I’m sure each one has as back door for him to run out in case he gets scared.

and a SWAT team, I’m assuming! #useless

Same none for Kansas City either. Shame on you Mark Alford

of course not. He would actually have to face his constituents. He’s too much of a coward for that.

Mark Alford [….] kc is not my constituency

You don’t say? This you?: “…We saw firsthand how Kansas City tried it….” New York City? WTF? (July 25, 2025)

These aren’t townhall meetings coward.

Mark, your fear of the larger cities in your district is comical. We won’t bite! But we will hold you accountable, is that what you’re scared of?

Let’s keep Congressman Mark Alford on his toes at every one of these locations.
He better be prepared to take a stand on hot topics, Medicaid cuts causing Rural Hospitals to close, Medicaid cuts causing Nursing homes closing and Epsteingate.
[….]

Where are the major towns in your district?
Afraid of non white, under age 65 voters?

Dude, you’re hilariously afraid of facing your constituents in progressive areas.

No no no…..You join us. We have questions you’ll love the answer. Ha! You won’t grant access. You’re a pussy who’s afraid of his constituents by his own choosing. Lying and voting against the people who were at 65 percent AGAINST The Bigley Billionaire Bailout.

Congressman Mark Alford So you’ve set a bunch of dates for meet and greets and are calling them the “Town Hall Tour”. How many can attend the 7:00 pm “Town Halls”?
[….]

Eric Schmitt (r) [2022 file photo].

Eric Schmitt (r), this afternoon:

Senator Eric Schmitt
[July 25, 2025]
Look at the current leaders of the Democrat Party—it’s like a Star Wars bar of radical leftists.

What a clown.

There was much hilarity in the responses:

I’ll take Star Wars characters over Dumb and Dumber characters any day.

Ooh, that one left a mark.

That’s what I was thinking! You mean a diverse group of people interacting in the same room? Speaking different languages and co-existing??? Sounds damn good to me!!

The Democratic Party isn’t in charge of what is occurring right now. Talk to me how you will be helping Missourian’s feed their children and pay their bills.

How come ya starting to worry about Democrats?

*Democratic Party. You know that, Senator Eric Schmitt, member of the Grand Old Pedophile President Protection Party.

lol you’re laughably outta touch if you actually believe anything you’re saying. Ah the ways you need to comfort yourself with these comments. Running scared. As a Missourian, the GOP has been in power here for 20+ years making this place more unbearable and unlivable by the day. Feeling worried you haven’t done your job well enough for this next election? GOOD. #hotcommiesummer

Could you and Hawley get any further up Trump’s arse. You grew up in Bridgeton- a middle class neighborhood- and now you’re taking things away from the middle class. How do you sleep at night knowing what you’re doing. You had neighbors that were struggling with their businesses back then but you apparently were the “chosen ” child in your family. You have a child yourself who has special needs (but he’s covered with OUR insurance). Stop being so uppity and get back to your roots, it’s not becoming on you. Your lies and stories against the left side so you can get “atta boy” from the pedophiles in the house is sickening.

Senator Eric Schmitt you guys are big scared of Mamdani, huh?

Yep.

Better than an insane bootlicking fascist evangelical neonazi death cult

Your daddy uses the term “shylocks” Eric Schmitt

Let’s talk about you protecting pedophiles first. Way more important than the NYC Mayor’s race to most of your consituents. How long will you protect them?

Your party is led by a senile pedophile, you shouldn’t be throwing stones while you’re living in that glass house.

Look at the current leader of our country … we all know that the more you focus on Biden and the left, it is strictly an attempt to distract from the shitstorm that is our current administration. And it makes you look weak and the least transparent of all.

GOP = GUARDIANS OF PEDOPHILES

Epstein. Epstein. Epstein.

Funny that you ridicule Mamdani, but you embrace a failed businessman, convicted felon and adjudicated rapist.

There’s that.

New York City? WTF?

Mark Alford (r) [2025 file photo]

Yesterday:

Congressman Mark Alford
[July 24, 2025]
Zohran Mamdani’s pushing government-run groceries and free bus fares?!
Total FAILURE. We saw firsthand how Kansas City tried it—& it cost millions PLUS crime shot up. M0-04 and America deserve better than these socialist flops.
[….]

Some of the responses:

ICYMI – KCMO is NOT THE SAME as NYC. They can decide how they want their city to be run whether busybodies like you “like” it or not. NUNYA. And you sure don’t mind YOUR socialist paycheck and healthcare and a whole truckload of perks, so you might wanna STFU about ‘socialism doesn’t work’.

—–

Waste of money and time in Kansas City.

free bus fares are a game changer for the urban poor to get to jobs. In many big cities a 30 day bus pass costs over $100.
Not every one has a car.
Think about how others live especially in urban areas.

KC isn’t that big. No need. And it was a waste of money.

Michael Bersin
[….] Kansas City, Missouri is the 25th largest city in land area (314.5 square miles) in the United States – larger than New York City, Chicago, New Orleans, Denver, Las Vegas, Philadelphia, Tampa, Salt Lake City, Milwaukee, Memphis, Tucson, Seattle, and Orlando.

—–

BTW at my work we would have a hard time filling warehouse jobs if people had to pay to take the bus which is around $100 a month?

The fact that you are opposing him tells me you are afraid of him.

The entire GOP is scared shitle$$ of Mamdani.

All of America should be concerned of the influence people like mamdani have over Americans. His ideals ARE NOT American ideals.

is that Alford is focusing on? Instead of his own district? Or is this a distraction from the shit Trump is stepping in?

even more importantly trumpism does not work in America.

Why do we care? Missouri is going to loose healthcare and the schools are missing millions of dollars the federal government promised them. Let’s talk about that.

And what are you doing for the people of Missouri. Our insurance premiums are going to go up because of you. You’ve taken away federal education funding from Missouri. What are you been there for? Find a different job. This one’s not for you.

Mark Alford is an embarrassment to the state of Missouri.

many of our elected officials in Missouri are embarrassing.

Not even in your district. Stay in your lane.

Mark Alford does not speak for Missourians, nor does he work for the good of the 4th District.

Why don’t you focus on helping your constituents?

It might be a great idea for you to stop focusing on the national politics and focus on your district.

Actually, a mayoral candidate in another region of the country.

And now you deflect what is going on with your political party, by giving us your opinion about what is happening in New York City? Nice try Mark, but I won’t be distracted. 🙄

And what have you done for YOUR district? Other than do your best to deny them food and medical care ?

Epstein files

That’s New York. This is Missouri…not your area of representation. By the way, I thought South Park’s political satire of the felon-in-chief was hilarious. Are you and other MAGAts about to lose your minds?

Why are you concerned about this? Not your state! Leave New York alone.

Why don’t you schedule an announced town hall you coward?

Neither does fascism

He posted about a mayoral candidate in New York City. Not his concern. He’s only pushing red meat as part of the GOP distraction.

He’s running for mayor of NYC, Mark. Are you scared of his platform?
What solutions have you brought for food insecurity? What solutions do you have to increase public transportation?

Why are you commenting on a Mayor’s race in another state. We have plenty to worry about here in MO and nationally. This stinks.

Who GAF about a candidate for mayor in NYC

But giving billions to the top 1 percent works.

Heh.

Just imagine this clown presuming to tell New Yorkers ANYTHING!🤣🤣

Weak Sauce

So, wtf does the New York mayor race have to do with this gross fkr’s district in Missouri??

Broadway musicals? Just a guess.

I bet Epstein and Trump never had to worry about where their next meal was coming from. Or Alford for that matter.

What the fuck does this have do with Missouri???

How many areas in YOUR district have no public transportation or no grocery stores within a 5 mile radius?
How about talking about problems your RURAL district faces?

Why don’t you focus on your Missouri constituents? You threw them under the bus with the Big Beautiful Bill and now you are deflecting from the Epstein files. Enjoy your extra long vacation while Missourians can’t even get paid sick leave because Republicans ignored the voters.

Are you afraid of socialism? Is all that social security and Medicare and Medicaid and tax payer funded infrastructure, and your tax payer funded salary really getting you down?
Because the unrestrained capitalism in this country is KILLING most of the rest of us.
Get a grip.

Is this what you’re worrying about on your tax-paid vacation, Mark? Nothing to do with your constituents, of course, just blubbering. How about a cognitive response from you, that isn’t scripted by the orange man and can help the people in your district. So far, you voted to take money away from: school districts, rural hospitals, SNAP and Medicaid funding, so the wealthy can get a big tax break. All because you voted as Trump told you how to vote. When you go back to work, how will you vote on the Epstein release? Will you try to undo some of the destruction you caused your constituents when you voted for everything in the “big, b… bill”? Or will you continue to cower in DC?

Look who’s talking. A bootlicking fascist.

What a fu*king ass hole you are. I hope someone in your family needs help someday and your dumb a** is the reason it’s not there. Such an evil POS

Which part of NEW YORK CITY is in your district?
Learn how to read a map

There’s that.

Let’s see where the least educated live. Circle on the map where your trailer park is. You can ask a teacher for help.

Mark sure hates helping poor people. You are a disgrace.

Congressman Mark Alford
Nope.
This isn’t an issue & you don’t represent KCMO regardless!
Now…about those Epstein files?

What an asshole!

Piss off

100% Pro-Life
I believe life is precious, begins at conception, and should be protected at all costs.

So, the death penalty is out and everyone should have access to affordable and accessible health care?

Defend the Second Amendment
We should protect what our forefathers fought for at all costs.

The 14th Amendment not so much?

Eliminate Personal Property Tax & Income Tax
Taxes are out of control and they need to be eliminated.

Tariffs are good, though?

Stop Eminent Domain
Eminent domain is theft, and we must stop this abuse of power.

That’s on someone’s radar?

Fight for Our Veterans
We must improve care for all veterans and provide better support for those facing PTSD.

But without the VA?

Protect Missouri Land
Missouri land should be owned by Missourians, or at least Americans.

You might want to chat with Eric Schmitt (r) about that.

Secure Missouri Elections
We cannot allow another rigged election to take place like what happened in 2020!

So, no one in Missouri was actually elected in Missouri in 2000? Do tell.

Deport Illegals
STOP THE INVASION — deport deport deport!

Your papers, please.

Stand Against the Woke Agenda
We must protect our children from the rabid leftists.

The chronic wasting Fascists, not so much.

Apparently, an outdated concept for far too many.

Eric Schmitt (r) [2022 file photo].

“….Irrationalism also depends on the cult of action for action’s sake. Action being beautiful in itself, it must be taken before, or without, any previous reflection. Thinking is a form of emasculation. Therefore culture is suspect insofar as it is identified with critical attitudes. Distrust of the intellectual world has always been a symptom of Ur-Fascism, from Goering’s alleged statement (“When I hear talk of culture I reach for my gun”) to the frequent use of such expressions as “degenerate intellectuals,” “eggheads,” “effete snobs,” “universities are a nest of reds.” The official Fascist intellectuals were mainly engaged in attacking modern culture and the liberal intelligentsia for having betrayed traditional values….” – Ur-Fascism – Umberto Eco

Yesterday, from Eric Schmitt (r):

Senator Eric Schmitt
[July 22, 2025]
DEI isn’t about diversity, it’s about discrimination.
Tomorrow, I’m chairing a Senate Judiciary hearing to expose how it’s corrupting corporate America and our universities.
[….]

Some of the responses:

Senator Eric Schmitt No. DEI is about giving everyone a fair shot, and recognizing that discrimination still happens.

You: It’s a free country.
Eric Schmitt: Not so fast!

Schmitt, you can hold all the useless hearings you want. At the end of the day, your Fascist Fatass is STILL a CONVICTED FELON, an ADJUDICATED RAPIST, and a KNOWN PEDOPHILE. Come on, we all know it, including you. You can stall and delay until the cows come home, but WE will NEVER let you forget that your Dear Leader is one sick fuck, and so are you for excusing him and praising him.
In the meantime, he’s making AI videos, yammering about how Obama is “SEDATIOUS????” Pretty sure the dumb ass meant “seditious,” but nevertheless, we all know that whatever he is accusing others of is merely his OWN CONFESSION.
You’re sick, Schmitt…very, very sick.

Nope.

Eric Schmitt, is there a reason black women have a higher maternal mortality rate than women?

Eric is a flat out bigot and he’s proud of it

DEI includes your children; female, disabled. People deserve to be treated fairly and that has never happened. DEI was trying to change the history of red lining, prejudice based on a name, women not being able to have their own charge card. I could go on and on. But, you have your MAGA blinders on and twist and lie to try and support your bigotry. It’s all based on FEAR; fear of change, fear of perceived differences, fear of brown skin. Shame on you.

—–

DEI is not a fear of brown skin. It should be who is best qualified for the job.

bless your heart – if it were ACTUALLY EVER about qualifications or “merit”, no one would need anti-discrimination education and job stats would show a general dispersion among races that mirrors the population.

open your eyes and mind. It’s already happening. None of that bullshit and it keeps people down, like the democratic party has for years.

keeps WHO “down”? and HOW? Women still only make 80% of white men, disabled workers make about 70%, and black workers are only making about 80% of white workers… and y’all are pissed?? WHY?

—–

Why are you protecting pedophiles?? Are you one?

Right out of protect 2025. Got to make sure only white people can get educated and work.

“….I’m chairing a Senate Judiciary hearing to expose how it’s corrupting corporate America and our universities….”

Training, not education.

You forgot your hood, racist.

Congress needs to get its butt in gear and keep up with Trump.

Is somebody going to tell her?

Liar. Resign you complicit pandering christofascist hack

The entirety of this anti-DEI narrative that was fed to you by your tangerine daddy is diabolical.

—–

When y’all gonna vote to release those Epstein files?

ya’ll going to address the Russia collusion hoax?
Any reason the Dems didn’t release the files?
Or is this the left’s new “taco” attempt?

Chicken taco.

it wasn’t my Orange Crush who ran a political campaign saying he’d release it. Check with your Fanta Führer

So that’s a no?
Cool reliable Hitler reference. Cuz yeah it’s the right that are the Jew hating socialists.

No wonder you lost. Keep it up.

pick up a book! They don’t bite, promise 😘😘

—–

WWJD?

Of course you don’t know that DEI is about being fair, treating everyone equally and with respect, making sure everyone has equal opportunity to a good education that insures a good job. How can you have a moral compass when you only value law and order for the non-wealthy and think the wealthy can get away with all kinds of financial crimes including the greatest transfer of wealth to the top 5% income in the budget bill. This also includes lots of officials guilty of sexual assault. That’s no surprise when your president, the leader of the party is a convicted criminal x 34, hiding payments so voters wouldn’t know about adultery, cheating the vote, defamed a woman that he had bragged about grabbing by her genitals which the judge said was rape, and now it looks like he is extremely scared of the discovery of the “secret” of what he and Epstein did to girls. He liked to look at teenage beauty contestants changing clothes. He met Melania where rich older men party to meet young Eastern European ladies, at the Kit Kat Club. He was attracted to his 13 y/o daughter. Witnesses have testified that they saw him have sex with a 13 y/o. Shame on all of you supporting this. RELEASE THE EPSTEIN FILES! But I know you’re all too cowardly to release it all. You’re already picking out the pieces with T’s name on it.

White unqualified traitor says what?

You’re a dumbass

Senator Eric Schmitt you’re a joke dude, give the dei shit a rest already

LOL! What a FUCKING waste of taxpayer money and time!
Is that why Trump fired every single black, trans, gay, and female QUALIFIED person from their high-ranking military positions???
Give us a fucking break. YOU are the bigots, hiring UNQUALIFIED, UNEDUCATED, and UNTRAINED imbeciles.
Your idiot Dear Leader doesn’t even like to be photographed with people in wheelchairs! MY GOD!
And, you can run, Schitty, but you can’t hide…WE STILL WANT THE LIST.

“….Ur-Fascism is based upon a selective populism, a qualitative populism, one might say. In a democracy, the citizens have individual rights, but the citizens in their entirety have a political impact only from a quantitative point of view — one follows the decisions of the majority. For Ur-Fascism, however, individuals as individuals have no rights, and the People is conceived as a quality, a monolithic entity expressing the Common Will. Since no large quantity of human beings can have a common will, the Leader pretends to be their interpreter. Having lost their power of delegation, citizens do not act; they are only called on to play the role of the People. Thus the People is only a theatrical fiction. To have a good instance of qualitative populism we no longer need the Piazza Venezia in Rome or the Nuremberg Stadium. There is in our future a TV or Internet populism, in which the emotional response of a selected group of citizens can be presented and accepted as the Voice of the People….” – Ur-Fascism – Umberto Eco
