Oh my.

Eric Schmitt (r) [2026 file photo].

Yesterday:

Eric Schmitt
[September 29, 2026]

🚨Big news and a home state win—the Navy F/A XX will be built by Missourians
St. Louis is Fighterland, USA
I worked with President Trump to bring home the F-47 and fought hard to bring the F/A-XX to St. Louis as well
This is a WIN for Missouri and for our national security.

Uh, something else happen yesterday? Just asking.

There is much hilarity and piling on in the responses to Eric Schmitt (r):

Ah yes, St. Louis, home of the Arizona Cardinals

Great comments folks. This guy made a fool out of himself.

Are you sure it isn’t the Atlanta Hawks???

==========

That yo-yo spent hundreds of dollars just to make the idiotic sign.

I’m sure he spent taxpayer money on that.

==========

A few years ago St. Louis had a Hawks and my beloved Hazelwood High School is home of Hawks in North County.

Are you sure? There are poster boards to help you recall.

==========

maybe the Hawkeyes!

maybe the Golden State Warriors.

Eric Sh*tmitt ever hear of Women’s Basketball??

In my life my 65 years on this planet I have never seen a US congressman or senator make such a jackass of themselves as this idiot did today on national TV what a dumbass.

He said St. Louis, but we can’t be sure it’s not Louisville. Maybe a poster board will help?

especially one Senator Foghorn Leghorn Kennedy is holding up lol

It’s the poster board, it took me out.

‘St. Louis, which my staff has assured me is not Atlanta…’

Marked safe from not confusing the Hawks with the Hawkeyes.

Bro didn’t just miss the shot, he got called for traveling across state line

We see what you did there.

Hawks versus Hawkeyes. Run Eric run.

And here I thought he was obsessed with college sports.

Are sure it’s St. Louis, and not Phoenix, or Louisville? It’s hard to keep these teams and towns straight.

right there in River City.

Trouble, trouble, trouble, trouble…

They gonna call it the Hawkeye?

Atlanta Hawks or War Hawks?

Fighterland USA…do they have a mascot? Hope its not a Hawk….
[….]

‘St. Louis is home to the Navy F/A XX, the coyotes, the lakers, the Packers, and Atlanta. Yes, the whole thing and no, you can’t check that.’

For your future reference, Navy are the ‘Midshipmen’

Are we sure that we’re not in Atlanta, Senator?

You mean the Hawks?

My work here has already been done by others…..🤣🤣🤣

Just to clarify, you’re talking about St Louis MO and not St Louis Park MN, right? Making sure you don’t have another snafu moment 😉.

3

Senator Amy Klobuchar (D) [2019 file photo]

Heh.

Another distinction Senator Klobuchar could school him on, for sure.

That’d be two zingers in one day for AK.

The jokes write themselves.

You sure it isn’t going to Iowa, Eric?! 😂

Maybe Atlanta, Minnesota?

Not sure where Fighterland is. Maybe the Hawks play there.

Lets rename the jets the Fighter Hawks.

Wow… so, that’s kind of a slam dunk? Way to bring that three pointer home! Maybe it will distract from your technical foul earlier today. Sorry, these jokes are a bit of a lay up.

Jack Smith much?

Are we sure it’s not the Hawkeyes?

That’s not the big Eric Schmitt news for today, is it?

Squirrel!

Can it carry Toma-Hawkeye missiles?

Are you sure it’s for Missouri? It’s not for Atlanta and its NBA team? 🙄

You are talking about St Louis, MO, right? Not St Louis, LA? or California. Or Michigan or Oregon or Virginia. I know it can get confusing where certain things are, geographically….

You sure it’s not Atlanta?

Is that the one nicknamed Hawkeye?

Hey, Eric, did you ever figure out the difference between the Iowa Hawkeyes Women’s basketball team, and the Atlanta Hawks yet?

You sure you got the right state this time?

You know that St. Louis isn’t in Texas, right?

You sure it wasn’t a Grumman E-2 Hawkeye? 🤡

Slipped that one in under the radar. Nicely done.

Is it codenamed “Hawk?”

Don’t you mean Iowa?

Boeing, whatever you do, don’t give the plane the nickname “hawk” or “hawkeye” or this guy will get really confused!

Is this the right state Eric? 😂

Do you know St. Louis isn’t in Georgia?👀😆

This ratio is giving me life. Best to hang it up for the day ‘lil buddy.

The look on your staff’s faces when they suddenly realized their future tenure as VP aides wasn’t happening was pretty funny!

it was hysterical- like “ oh no, I’m never gonna get to be on the Eric Schmitt cabinet” because the world is laughing at him

…but what about that Maryland-Iowa game? Good one, eh?

Who here among us has not confused the Atlanta Hawks with the Iowa Hawkeyes?

It’ll fly like a Hawk! Or maybe a Hawkeye…

You sure it’s the Navy? For real for real…you sure?

‘YMCA!….’

Not the F-117 Nighthawk?

Hawks, Hawkeyes. Same thing only different

The F/A XX shall be nicknamed the Hawk

Red-tailed Hawk. Buteo jamaicensis.

How ’bout them Hawks?

Are you sure it isn’t Army tanks by Iowans?

Are you sure it’s not being built in Iowa?

Are you trying to change the subject? I thought we were talking about the Hawkeyes😂😂

Squirrel!

Are you sure about this? Do you have a poster board?

so its not gonna fly?

You sure it wasn’t an Old Navy?

Quick, change the subject!

schmitt brought the receipts today. Unfortunately it was a Target receipt he brought to Walmart

Dayam.

You sure it’s St. Louis? Could be Louisville Ky.

Naming competition for the F/A XX will be between the Hawk and the Hawkeyes

Are you sure you’re a St Louis Cardinals fan? Are you sure you’re not a fan of the Springfield Cardinals, the Ball State Cardinals, or the Louisville Cardinals?

Are you sure it is being built for the Navy not the Air Force? Better double check yiur notes…

Will it be built in Atlanta, College Park, or Iowa City? Do you know the difference?

Is that the one the Ambassador to China promised them? 😬

Fought hard. Who were you fighting?

Bet you felt the need to post this after your day today.

You sure they are building here? Or is it Iowa?

I want to say something funny using “Dirtbag”, but I can’t stop laughing.

Are you sure it is the Navy? or Army? is it planes or trains?

Instead of hawk for supper he’ll be eating crow.

Eric, which state sits directly north of Missouri?
A. Georgia
B. Maryland
C. Iowa
D. I’ll lie to get a ‘gotcha” viral moment during a Senate hearing

Apologize yet?

Do you need a poster????

Loved your act today, when are you clowning next

Did you also know that the White Sox and Red Sox are different baseball teams?

OMG, loved your comedy act today. I am still roflmao. Are you going to take your show on the road again? I want to buy tickets for your act.

What would you say if I had a series of text messages..

are you sure you remember where Missouri is?

Minnesota State Screamin Eagles or the Philadelphia Eagles?

This comment section makes me happy

Careful Eric Schmitt don’t perjure yourself…

We see what you did there.

caitlin clark’s greatest assist of all time

Dayam.

Thanks for the update, Hawkeye.

Watched you on TV today. Hahahaha!!

Aaaaaiiiirrrrr balllll!!! 🤡

This distraction from your epic failure today is not working. 🦅👁️

Where does your state rank in education? Just curious 🤔

So much for V.P. possibility.

They consider that a feature, not a bug.

This comment section delivers 🍿

What’s up Senator? How’s your day going?

What is Josh doing all day?

He went for a run.

I was not in Atlanta, February 3rd, 2024. (In case anyone asks)

Have lunch with Denny tomorrow @ the Cracker Barrel

Dan Quayle sends his thanks.

Dayam.

Hey, I will give you $50 for that cool graphic you shared during the Jack Smith hearing.
Just DM me and we can work out the details.

Define home team

When does your Failing Up masterclass start?

Imagine thinking that this is some kind of flex. I only hope that curiosity gets the better of you and you actually spend all night scrolling through the comments.

I’m just glad that you were well prepared for the Smith hearing today and didn’t come off looking like a f-cking idiot. Thank you for not embarrassing yourself in front of the entire nation. You are truly a good and highly intelligent person.

And on and on….

Today:

Marisa Kabas @marisakabas.bsky.social
renaissance painting when the renaissance is really fucking stupid
[….]
1:31 PM · Sep 29, 2026

Heh.

Some of the responses:

Scoop — I’ve ID’d the two men sitting behind Sen. Eric Schmitt during his botched attack on Jack Smith this morning.

Ethan Harper (left) is Chief Counsel to Schmitt, and Andrew Ceonzo (right) is Counsel to Schmitt and the Senate Judiciary Committee.

Trial lawyer here. Cult behavior aside, conducting a hard cross (if that’s what you want to call it) based upon a false premise, then doubling down when that premise is openly proven false is more damaging than not showing up at all. But cults do what they do.

Embarrassing for Schmitt, but I guess only if he has integrity

Left to right:

“we got ’em.”

“do we got ’em though?”

“…we don’t got ’em.”

Dirtbag and His Douchebags, by Titian

Those are the faces of 2 attorneys who realize they gave really bad advice to their Senator.

When you realize you just Schmitt our pants…

The Dark Ages, I guess.

Now known as taking a Schmitt in the Senate.

the three stooges of the renaissance

He’s all kicked back in his chair – obstinate and oblivious still.

He was so incredibly smug during his time “on stage” here thinking he’d found something incredibly damaging to Mr Smith.

I love for him that he & his team screwed it all up royally.

He deserves to be mocked endlessly over this.

The look when you know you’ve done something stupid but did it anyway and then realize you’ll probably do it again

Hanlon’s razor, “Never attribute to malice that which is adequately explained by stupidity.”

Future meme for when you realize you’re a dumbass.

Eric Schmitt (r) [2025 file photo].

This morning at the Senate Judiciary Committee hearing with witness Jack Smith:

emptywheel @emptywheel.bsky.social
[….]

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH.

HAHAHAHAHAH.

Eric Schmitt just accused Jack Smith of lying about going to an Atlanta Hawk’s basketball game.

Smith went to see the Iowa Hawkeyes.

9:44 AM · Sep 29, 2026

“[Eric] Schmitt is a Fascist doosh”

Some of the responses:

🤔 Is that all they’ve got? lol

Thanks for the absolutely LOL I just had. Almost peed my pants I laughed so hard and long. 🤭😎😆

Incomplete staff work or deliberate misrepresentation of facts? I’ll take door number two.

That creep called Jack Smith a dirt bag. MAGA is slime.

I’m glad they’re wasting time on important discussions.

Fuck these people are beyond being embarrassed they’re so dumb. So far it looks like it’s blowing up in their fucking faces. Thank you for reminding us that the orange meat stick would’ve been convicted of serious crimes.

Is it the Mizzou Tigers or the Hamilton Tiger-Cats?

It’s a Missouri reference.

jesus

Maybe Natalie shouldn’t be in opposition research.

We see what you did there.

Is this all they have?

They never had anything.

Eric Schmitt is full of shit head clown in the Republican circus wasting time and tax payers money instead of fixing the economy and doing the jobs they were elected to do.Disgraceful.

Nothing to say but he has to fill his 5 minutes. Like Kennedy, they have nothing, they know Trump is guilty of all the stuff and Jack Smith had him dead to rights, and if it wasn’t for the machine covering up and excusing Satan, we would have a much better world.

Eric Schmitt is either a liar or a moron. Probably both.

Schmitt does not know ball.

Conspiracy peddling swatted down in real-time love to see it!

He was so certain of his “gotcha.” LMAO.

Schmitt’s “questioning” was embarrassing to him
and the State of Missouri.

Eric Schmitt’s big gotcha moment not only backfired on himself, but it also made him look like an ass.

Eric Schmitt (r) has always looked like an ass.

I just called his office and laughed for the whole message.

Now that’s funny.

right-wing morons are giving it their best

Schmitt is not a serious person.

it’s an instant SNL skit
[….]

Let’s call it was it is: #SchmittIsAnAssHat

Every single one of these repubs are complete morons

Douchebag extraordinaire

Heh. See image above.

Then he proceeds to call Smith a dirtbag. Schmitt was trying to play gotcha and it backfired on him! [Sen. Amy Klobuchar] (I don’t know you as they didn’t show her) chimed in with the correction, the score of the game and demanded Schmitt apologize to Smith!

Klobuchar just confirmed it was a University of Maryland/Iowa Hawkeyes game that Smith attended (in Maryland)
Smith testified that he went to the game, because he wanted to see Caitlin Clark play. That will make MAGAs implode.
and Eric Schmitt exposed again, as an incompetent dirtbag

Hawks, Hawkeyes, NBA team, womens college team. Who can tell the difference? So confusing!

His face was beet red.

“You can’t fix stupid”

An embarrassment to the Judiciary Committee, the U.S. Senate, Missouri, and the U.S.A.

Schmitt calling Mr. Smith a ‘dirtbag’ is rich. Schmitt is one of the purest examples of MAGA scum.

He used this as the basis to accuse Smith of being in Atlanta at that time to meet with Fani Willis as she was being dismissed. Ridiculous!! An ignorant fishing expedition.

more than ignorant–dishonest attempt to spread misinformation–which backfired in spectacular fashion–and reminded everyone that Schmitt is a dirtbag.

The voters of Missouri should be embarrassed that Sen. Schmitt is “representing” them.

That fool is repping my state. He’s getting a nasty phone call. 😜

Good. He should get a lot of negative phone calls from constituents about this. Missouri should vote Eric Schmitt out as soon as they can. What a shameless and embarrassing display. The GOP doesn’t bring their best, that’s for sure.

Eric Schmitt is thicker than a plank

Idiot!!! Schmitt is an imbecile

“…The Eighth Circuit’s application of Purcell was incorrect. Even though “federal courts should not impose changes close to an election, States are free to decide for themselves whether last-minute changes to an election are in their best imposed by federal law. [….] Moreover, in this case, the Missouri Supreme Court was not responsible for the late-breaking changes. On the contrary, in an opinion back in May 2026, well before the primary election, the Missouri Supreme Court stated that the 2025 map would not take effect until approved by the voters in an intervening referendum, at least if the referendum petition was legally sufficient. [….] So in the several-month period before the August primary election, the Missouri Secretary of State was well aware that conducting the August primary election with the 2025 map carried significant risks. The Secretary nonetheless chose to proceed with the 2025 map for the primary…” – People Not Politicians v. Onder, U.S. Supreme Court, September 25, 2026

Missouri Secretary of State Denny Hoskins (r) is a might bit touchy after a series of slapdowns from the Missouri Supreme Court and the United States Supreme Court over his attempt(s) to obstruct the citizen led referendum to overturn the mid-decade gerrymander of congressional districts.

“….Denny Hoskins limited who can comment on this post.”

Denny Hoskins (r) [2022 file photo].

Yesterday:

Denny Hoskins is at State Capital, Jefferson City Mo.

Baby I’M an Outlaw king · James Walker Outlaw

If Being Conservative is a Sin, Baby I’m an Outlaw…
[….]

Denny Hoskins limited who can comment on this post.

A republican statewide officeholder in Missouri who doesn’t want feedback from the people of the state he’s supposed to serve. Why are we not surprised?

“….Denny Hoskins limited who can comment on this post.”

Well, you can’t stop all public feedback on your job performance:

But you can still whine about it:

Denny Hoskins
[September 22, 2026]

I can’t unhear this and now you can’t either….liberals are crazy. Wearing devil horns, singing cringe songs while showing off their “8647” sign!?!? #cringe
Crazies like this aren’t coming after me, they are coming after you, your kids and our Missouri way of life. I’m the only thing standing in their way.
[….]
Raging Grannies on Denny Hoskins

There were responses on this one:

…. So let me get this straight, when you post an ai image on the social media account, specifically meant to taunt people who disagree with you, that’s tough and based, but when someone makes a parody pointing out things you’ve done they disagree with, that’s dangerous. Hypocrisy aside trying to make yourself a Messiah is insulting, dangerous and a sign that you continue to refuse to listen to the people you claim to represent. Regardless of how you feel about people on the left, your job as a statewide official is to represent them. Stop trying to make yourself a Messiah and just do your job.

Oh come on Denny. The Raging Grannies are dressed in regular clothes (+kitchen apron), not a red jacket or baseball bat among them, singing a Brady Family parody song. Honest, funny, but still pointed enough to get your dander up.
No more ridiculous than the people we see lined up, dressed in Trump paraphernalia, to see his ego rallys! Or to see Trump dress himself up as a super hero, a soldier or Jesus in his memes! But you don’t say a word about that.

I think you missed their point. They are calling you the devil.

I’d say the only cringe thing is you not adhering to our Missouri Constitution. Get outta here 🤡

Denny, sad to hear you feel threatened or angry by our song for you.! We just took account of your behavior and set it to music. You are correct- we aren’t bakers or babysitter grannies… we all have families & grandchildren & we want to leave them a better Missouri that cares about the everyday people- & legislatuers who make that happen.
Thanks for listening to your Grannies! Now, get up off your fannies & we’ll meet you in the steets. That is always our closing remarks when we sing.
✌️

I hesitate to say that history will remember you poorly. In fact, history will not remember you at all.
Clown.

Nope, Denny. They are pointing out your despicable failure to uphold the rule of law, which, in case you forgot, is your constitutional duty. I’ll just leave this right here in the hopes it reminds you of the duty of that oath you took:
“In the several-month period before the August primary election, the Missouri Secretary of State was well aware that conducting the August primary election with the 2025 map carried significant risks,” the Court wrote. “The Secretary nonetheless chose to proceed with the 2025 map for the primary.”
That finding is an especially rough ending to a redistricting saga in which Hoskins repeatedly tried to preserve Missouri Republicans’ 2025 congressional gerrymander — only to be rebuked by the state Supreme Court, held in contempt, sued by voters and ultimately shut down by the nation’s highest court.”
[….]

Maybe you should keep quiet for a little while?

The first rule of holes – When you find yourself in a hole, stop digging.

How dare you say this about a bunch of nice, retired women from Rolla. You should be ashamed of yourself.

These ladies are actually doing something meaningful – which is more than I can say for you….and they aren’t even getting paid for it.
You’re a criminal, moronic liar, Denny. They’re definitely coming ‘after you’. That’s why they’re singing ‘about you’, you dumbass loser. Nothing in their song implies anyone else, you perpetual little bitch boy.
Remember when you took photos from different city and pretended they were from Warrensburg pride? Normal people don’t do shit like that.
I can’t unsee that….’conservatives’ are crazy. Lying to their base, dedicating their platforms to lies, exaggerations, calling anything proven to be true ‘fake’ and focusing on made up bullshit like all the ‘illegal crime’, ‘voter fraud’ and ‘trans’ as our gas prices, food prices, and cost of living continue to rise.
Weird that you’d be calling anyone else ‘crazy’.
Actual reliable and trustworthy Secretaries of State would do their damn job according the the Constitution to represent the will of the people – not shilling for a pedophile protecting, lying, bullying rapist who they, for some reason, continue to look up to – but here you are.
#cringe
PS – what are ‘devil horns’, Den Den? You’re supposed to be a Christian – do you think Satan has horns, because holy shit…
I think I’m going to throw a tip to those grannies.

Man you are such a wussy it is sad really. Damn snowflake is what you are.

Squirrel!

Yesterday:

Senator Eric Schmitt
[September 25, 2026]

FACT: Congress is the only entity that can empower a governing body to establish clear, enforceable rules for college sports.
College sports are uniquely American–it’s worth preserving.
[….]

Nothing else of any importance is going on in America right now. Apparently.

There is much hilarity in the responses:

Racist pig

Does Congress have anything to do with declaring war? Just curious…

Yes…I believe that’s in the Constitution right after the Congressional war powers clause. LOLGOP

Thank God you’re taking care of this Senator this morning when I was pumping $80 for the gas into my car it’s all I could think about was college sports

me too when I was at buying groceries at Aldi last week .. I thought God thank you for My senators attention to college sports

Any comment on Senator Tuberville’s Senate floor rant on the influx of furries in aviation? 😅🤣😂

Actually, the NCAA and the NAIA are fully able to establish rules if it’s really a major issue.

Got it. We don’t need clear enforceable rules for our government. Glad you’re fighting for college sports. It’s literally the single most important issue. We can all sleep better tonight folks! Life will be affordable again when this is fixed

I thought that’s what the NCAA is for

dude, read the room.

That’s awesome. Any headway on that healthcare plan?

Sadly, no.

Really tackling the most important issues arent you?

He just chases media exposure on irrelevant topics thinking this impresses MO constituency. Every post just exposes how bad he is out of touch with reality

That’ll really help get the cost of fuel and groceries down! Thank you, Senator!

How does this help all Missourians?

I didn’t realize this was major concern

How about first working on , for example, cost of living

This post instantly lowered gas prices.

“$4.29 a gallon for gas, $6.29 a gallon for diesel”

Sadly, no.

Yeah, that 1% of college students is a scary number. Don’t worry about gas prices or tainted food or a war.

The question is , can Congress halt the advancement of furries in the airlines?

My grocery bill is going down just talking about this. 🤡🤡🤡

You can’t be out of a job fast enough.

Senator Eric Schmitt
You wouldn’t know a fact if it walked up and slapped you in the face.

Let’s start trying to work on issues that’s affect your everyday constituents.

Thank goodness you are not addressing lowering healthcare, gas and grocery prices for Missouri residents .. college athletes is the number one issue facing Missouri voters …

Um we might have more pressing matters, Sir

Thank you Eric for fixing this vital issue that affects like .000001 percent of Missourians. Pretty sure you will be thanked at your next election!

Way to zero in on the critical issues here, Eric! I’m sure putting Congress in charge of college sports rules will immediately bring down the cost of gas, groceries and everything else. Not to mention extricating ourselves from an illegal war and putting an end to all the Dear Leader taxpayer-funded vanity projects in DC.

Squirrel!

Yep that fixes my $6.24/diesel!!!! So glad you are working on your constituents priorities

Eric Schmitt does what Russia wants

Because this is the MOST important thing happening right now in our country, right Eric????

Aren’t we fighting a war???

I’m so thankful we have a senator who focuses on college sports! It’s worth the pain felt in my entire body when choosing between filling my gas tank or just taking it to half so I can buy some groceries for dinner. Thank you, Senator Eric Schmitt, said nobody ever🤬.

Why do you keep posting about this?

1950.

Can you do maybe anything to help regular Missourians with affordability?

‘Sorry, all I can do is change the name of chimichangas to America rolls’

The chimichanga was reportedly invented by Monica Flin, El Charro Café, in Tucson, Arizona around 1950 when she accidently dropped a burrito into a deep fryer, started to swear, and switched to chimichanga (thingamajig). So, already American.

If this is the best the GOP has, the midterms are going to be a bigger blowout than anyone is predicting. Blue 🌊

Diesel is 6.25…..

Could you explain how this is lowering gas, grocery, healthcare, childcare, etc., prices?

Thank God we dont have any other issues like affordable Healthcare, housing, insurance, gas, diesel, well pretty much affordable anything, and here you are worried about semi pro college sports 😉

Why does my state have so many Stupids in it to vote a useless POS like you into office.

As the average American sinks further into despair, at least they won’t have to worry about one of the eight or nine Trans people in college sports getting an unfair advantage. Thanks, Senator, for focusing on the truly important matters of the day.

People and soldiers are dying in Iran. Focus, a**hat.

Focused on the exact priorities that will do absolutely nothing to resolve the actual issues voters care about. Keep it up, give more reasons to vote for your opponent.

What about this crap economy, Senator?

Move along, little doggy, we want cheaper gas and groceries.

He’s still talking about college sports!?! 🤦🏻‍♂️

Sadly, yes.

He voted yes to stay in a war with $4.50 gas and 6.50 diesel and all he can talk about is college sports.

You clueless, worthless, POS

Really important stuff.. maybe gas prices or inflation or groceries might top the list. Another worthless MO senator!!

People are starving, rural hospitals are closing and our president has taken is to an illegal war and all you can talk about is sports?

This country is on fire and all you are focused on lately is college sports.
It’s almost like you’re trying to avoid some tough issues……..

There’s that.

Rome is burning….and you’re talking about kids games!

My comment is WTF Senator Schmitt. You have constituents that can’t afford gas, groceries, utilities. Housing prices are out of control. We are in a war that no one wanted but the President. You are focused on college sports. Missouri, we have to vote this guy out. He couldn’t care less about you.

Eric Schmitt you are a TOOL

What difference does it Make Eric? Congress was to be the only entity that could declare war! Why are the Republicans focused on college sports? Where is the healthcare plan that Republicans say they are working on? The house and Senate are not doing their constituents! They only want to help the big donors!

Just bringing this to everyone’s attention. Here lately we are inundated by election idiocy. This guy is worried about Trans athletes, Tuberville about ” furries” in airplanes, and Hegseth about testosterone in males in the military. Most people are worried about gas, groceries, utilities, house payment or rent. Kinda strange how government officials worry more about other people’s sexuality than taking care of AFFORDABILITY! Js.

I wish you cared as much about the US Constitution as you do about sports.

Who cares. What about this lunatic who started this war and screwed everyone?

But Eric, you can sell yourself the highest bidder. You’re also an idiot.

This isn’t important. You’re a waste of our money.

Fuck Off!🖕🏻🖕🏻🖕🏻🖕🏻🖕🏻🖕🏻🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡

What the f**k is this? No one cares.

Hitting hard on the important stuff in our country right now, I see.
You are a worthless turd blossom.

Our lives do not circle around sports. When we’re concerned about the price of gas and groceries and pedophiles that are in the White House
Get off the sports train and do your freaking job

U have bigger fish to fry u worthless ass hat 🤬🤬🤬!

98% of the college students probably don’t want treasonous collaborators in their congress either.

Schmitt should be more worried about this country and it’s corrupt president than worried about sports
What a POS

Imagine a Missourian who can’t buy food right now watching their Senator passionately preaching about college sports day after day after day…priorities I guess.

Is this the only thing you are focused on? We don’t care like you don’t care about real issues.

Who the hell cares. How about addressing the quagmire in Iran, gas prices and rampant inflation? Or medical care. Or the president’s runaway spending on a ballroom, golf course, and a monument to himself that would make Albert Speer blush.

Between your trans crap and Tuberville and his furries it’s non-stop rube chumming.

Want to know what we Missourians want to see preserved? The Constitution you Trump toady culture warrior. But you have no spine for that because if you speak out against the obviously corrupt, inept and incompetent Dear Leader you’re afraid he will mean tweet you.

You’re really kinda lucky you’re not up for reelection next month, huh?🤔

College sports? You can’t be serious.

Would you, at my earliest convenience, preferably 2 years ago, fuck off with this college sports bullshit. What the fuckbare you doing abou $6+ diesel, you stupid fuck?

Do you EVER do ANYTHING that actually helps Missourians? No. Gotta keep those donors happy, though. Right? Despicable grifter.

Senator Eric Schmitt damn man! Any chance you could be focusing on something besides college sports?! How about our groceries our gas prices inflation interest rates! How about the fact that we have a freaking criminal in the oval office that has no guard rails! I’m sorry everyone in Congress right now is a total bag of shit! You just got off five weeks recess and then you’re on another seven weeks while Americans are flailing in the wind watching our young people fight a war that was illegally started because none of you have a set of balls to keep this president in line.

Shut the fuck already. You post like a 12 year old child. Endlessly.
