Failure happens when you allow lobbyists to make the regulations.
There’s that.
Failure happens when you sell Missouri out…
You’re a failure you never did your job in Missouri.
Everyone in my bank was awake today. Should I be concerned?
Define woke.
It is not a word to be used in every situation.
Hypocrisy is alive and thriving in your MAGA world.
What’s woke?
Republicans come up with slogans but never offer solutions!
#StayWoke
Oh honey get some new words —
I’m seeking original thoughts. So far all I see from you is nazi propaganda
Eric thinks every time he types “woke” he gets a peanut.
We are all tired of hearing you and the GOP use the word woke. You don’t even know what it means when you use it. If woke is educated, informed, considerate of others and our environment then count me in as being proudly woke.
I’m embarrassed for you.
Define woke.
I’ll do it for you: EVERY SINGLE THING THE GOP DISAGREES WITH OR DOESNT LIKE IS NOW CALLED WOKE.
#MAGAMORON.
Lazy but authentic frontier gibberish.
[….]
What does this even mean?
He doesn’t know either.
You’re such a schmuck. Do you ever have anything useful to add to the conversation??
No. This has been another edition of Short Answers to Simple Questions.
Too busy Shit Tweeting to Work.
[….]
What the actual fuck do you mean?
Other than making lame ass statements such as “too woke to fail” what are your plans and policies to help the American people?
First rule when you’re full of MAGA bull shit is throw the word “woke” in every sentence
Youre an abject imbecile. Had nothing to do with wokeness. Has everything to do with your orange diety and you nazis screwing the economy. China Eric.
How did dip shits like this guy get elected? Worthless. Just spout buzz words without having any clue what they mean but hoping his voters won’t realize just how stupid he is.
Trump tin foil hat – from somewhere on the Internets
From time to time right wingnut concern trolls try to leave comments here. Our system defaults to automatic moderation – that is, comments have to be approved. We don’t allow such comments to be linked to the original post, but on occasion, when we see fit, we’ll mock these attempts.
Do any of you left wingers know that all of the SVB executives got big bonuses before they closed? Also this is all planned. Biden sold us out to the WEF so that they could further their One World digital currency to give them complete control of all of us. Josh Haley is looking out for the American People but the Democrats would rather stick behind a President that can’t even finish a sentence without shuddering or talking complete nonsense. Tell me exactly what has he done that is good for this country?
A libertarian is just a republican who wants to blow dope.
For starters – Joe Biden (D) doesn’t pay porn stars $130,000.00.
By the way, the IP address and email address of all comments are attached to the original comment in our blog operating system.
And Sen. Karen McRunnypants, who helped create both catastrophes, of course, would run away from both.
You don’t even live in the state you are an elected senator. What hypocrisy.
Josh rarely leaves his comfort zone
How’s the weather in Virgina?
Doubt that he will visit the bank..
The bank situation is the greater threat to the country.
Josh, shut up. Seriously your lame retorts are just that…lame. keep runnin buddy
[….]
Don’t you have work to do for our country? Please do something for your constituents other than spending time tweeting judgement. Do something which makes me feel good about my tax dollars paying for your amazing healthcare and other benefits. Jesus.
Hmm train regulations rolled back, bank regulations rolled back. Wonder who did that?!
Bad combover. Check. Too long red tie. Check. Orange spray tan. Check. Tiny hands. Check. Cluelessness. Check…
Is this the part where Republicans pretend like they didn’t roll back Dodd-Frank provisions for smaller banks like SVB, and their supporters didn’t cause the run on SVB? The cycle of Democrats cleaning up Republican messes continues.
Both are disasters caused by reckless dismantling of regulations by you and your ilk.
Any legislation planned? Didn’t think so.
How many times have you been there? How many times have you visited the border? Has being photographed standing in either place solved anything?
Havent seen you at either place. Such concern.
Maybe worry more about doing a good job for the people of Missouri and spend less time being a mouthpiece for the party line.
Virginia. Ohio, last April.
Where are you running off to, today, Hawley?
Still running away from tourists?
#treasonweasel let the Ohio electeds worry about Ohio; why don’t you run on back here and listen to YOUR constituents? We’ve got things to say to you.
Will you visit Missouri anytime soon like ever. I live in the state that somehow elected a Virginian to represent Missouri. Tip of the cap to you for getting over on the rubes.
Risky and Reckless.
Republicans deregulated both industries and now pretend to complain when bad stuff happens
Josh Hawley will probably hold a town hall in Virg….. wait what state do you pretend to live in? Oh Missouri.
Trump visited to cause chaos and get attention.
How did that help?
He’s already forgotten his visit, along with the names of his wives and kids.
What do you want him to do? Pass out expired food and water? Sign Biden hats? Buy McDonald’s?
Btw trump never visited a single train derailment in 4 years. Neither did his transportation secretary.
But do tell me how Trump’s rollbacks on trains and banks have left us.
Where are you from, MO? Keep your nose in your own state. [….]
Virginia.
Maybe Trump should visit SVB, and explain how wonderful it was that he rolled back Dodd-Frank?
Wealthy individuals throughout the country who support an expansion of school vouchers in Wisconsin have contributed nearly $1.3 million since 2009 to Republican Governor Scott Walker and dropped another $1.1 million to help him win his contentious 2012 recall election.
[….]
The largest contributions between 2009 and July 2014 to Walker from voucher supporters came from Robert and Patricia Kern of Waukesha, founders of Generac Corp., $220,000; investor Foster Friess and his wife, Lynnette, of Jackson, Wyo., $130,700; hedge fund founder Bruce Kovner and his wife, Suzie, of New York City, $120,000; and retired New York City financier Roger Hertog, $120,000.
Yesterday, from Mark Alford (r), privileged traveler:
Mark Alford @markalfordkc
Thanks Mayor Pete!!! Sitting on SW flight at KCI. Was supposed to leave at 2, then 4, then 6, then 9pm, now back to 4! Turns out shortages at the air traffic control in Florida is causing unwarranted confusion. The Captain is now late because HE didn’t even know what time to be here. The “Peter Principal” is alive and well!!! @SouthwestAir @PeteButtigieg

A single exclamation mark will do, Mark (r).
The International Air Transportation Association (IATA) lists MCI as the airport’s designator code. But, you already knew that, didn’t you?
Some of the responses:
what a lazy and weak politician.
sees problems and points fingers instead of looking for solutions.
Mark Alford (r) responds in turn:

Here’s the solution: Fire Mayor Pete and get a new Secretary of transportation 4:55 PM · Mar 12, 2023
He’s stupid and he’s twelve years old. That’ll work in the republican House majority.
More responses:
how about practical solutions Representative Alford?
your elected position doesn’t involve appointing DOT exec, but you ARE empowered to legislate.
what legislative solutions are available Representative Alford?
That makes it better how?
Will the next one have the budget to hire and train more controllers? But new equipment?
Maybe since the ATC shortage is in FL, we fire DeSantis? That makes as much sense as firing the Transportation Secretary who does not personally hire Air Traffic Controllers either. [….]
That may give you an orgasm but it won’t solve the controller problems.
What a lame response! Just shows your lack of depth.
Nope. Not a solution. That’s finger-pointing for clicks and likes. Disappointed (but not surprised) you don’t know the difference. And btw, if you understand the difference but post anyway, that doesn’t make you clever.
It just makes him a stupid and petulant twelve-year-old.
How about you bought GQPers stop deregulation.
So just tear down what you don’t like…. Got it. That’s good leadership.
What have you done that’s constructive? Nothing.
How will that fix your delay?
Because flight delays are a new thing?? LOL you’re a joke.
Cabinet Secretaries are in charge of staffing? Perhaps all the Florida politicians are responsible? Odd that GOP lawmakers can’t be taken seriously. All theater, no governing.
Maybe when you get back to DC, you could go into your office and respond to the many emails, letters, phone calls and other inquiries that have been sent from your constituents in the 4th district of Missouri. You are failing to respond to your constituents!
I live in your district and yet haven’t seen anything you have done besides follow along with no direction. Where is better health care your party has promised? Why are you all against everybody paying social security on all there income like I had all the years I worked.
You are an ass. Shut up.
You have the emotional intelligence of a fucking 5-year-old.
I figured a twelve-year-old, but okay.
Man, no reason to think Southwest could have played any role in this based on our evidence…100% some politician’s fault. gotta be.
if you think southwest is giving you the full story, you’re somehow dumber than your twitter profile makes you look.
Ding, ding, ding! We have a winner.
You’re sure a disappointment! And I didn’t expect much.
Florida? Isn’t this a DeSantis problem then?
GFY Alford.
Could someone bring Mark his coffee?
You’re just as whiny and negative as you were on the local news. What an embarrassment you are to Missouri.
And your background is . . . reading the news [….]
What is it with short men and chips on their shoulders? You left being an eye-rolling performative morning news presenter to be a useless performative politician.
Exactly what did Mayor Pete do to cause this problem?
You are a literal joke. It doesn’t take any type of skill to simply repeat the same tired talking points as every other GOP politician.
Of course you spent your life reading off a teleprompter so why am I surprised.
MAGA is just about bitching and whining. Nothing more, nothing less. Snowflakes with no solutions
Jhc, stop your whining & bitching. I’d be more concerned that your Captain doesn’t know when to be at work, that’s the airlines fault.
So the pilot not checking is scheduled is the Secretary of transportation’s fault? Are you really that stupid? Does it hurt being that stupid?
Are you part of the problem, the solution, or just a total dumb ass? I think we all know. Even the few that liked you on tv.
Is it that some action, or inaction by Buttigieg/DOT is responsible in any way shape or form for this particular flight delay? OR is it that maybe, just maybe, Southwest is just a bad airline which is constantly plagued by delays? You’re such an infantile pillock.
Mark, I really appreciate you making more people aware of just how much of an asshole you are. Propose a solution, dipshit.

We see fit.
A submitted comment:
Wow. Scientology is just guessing. Our native American Brothers an sisters already ready proved what’s going on with the climate. And spending billions of taxpayers dollars isn’t going to fix it. But that’s what democrats do. Biden has run this country into the ground and just about everyone here calls Republicans a cult. He’s done absolutely nothing for this country but sale us out. Atleast we still had a country under Trump. He didn’t kiss the queers ass and wasn’t letting every illegal immigrant in this country for taxpayers to pay for. Democrats have got to be the dumbest people on the planet. To believe all the horse shit Biden is putting out. You should be ashamed. And the democrats are only going after trump so hard because they know what will happen if a republican gets president The Clinton’s an Obamas and don’t forget Biden and the other geriatric fuck. Pelosi. They should be executed for the treason. But you idiots keep blowing off steam. It makes you feel better knowing your part of this countries problem. When the lines are done being made. Then we will fix this problem. An by the way. My sources aren’t fabricated internet bullshit. I worked for this ridiculous government for almost 8 years.

RNC Research – that’s an oxymoron if we’ve ever heard one.
Some of the responses:
The GOP is a cult.
People sell their souls for a few extra bucks.
Is this why you were elected?
No, but it is a symptom.
Climate denier- asleep, bloated, mediocre male tries to be relevant so Orange Julius will notice him
Bad combover. Check. Too long red tie. Check. Orange spray tan. Check. Tiny hands. Check. Cluelessness. Check…
Heh.
Election Denial is a cult.

Climate alarmism is science. Climate alarmism is caring for God’s creation. Climate alarmism is caring for the poor. Climate alarmism is the only sane response to the truth we must face. #ActOnClimate #ClimateAction #ClimateActionNow #ClimateEmergency
Tell me you’re in the pocket of big oil companies without telling me you’re in the pocket of big oil companies. [….]

Did you fail all of your science classes?
So many questions.
Trump lost.
Says the guy who sold Missouri farms to the Chinese
Heh.
Climate denial is even worse.
Bless your heart.
[….]
Climate Change Denial should be labeled as Paid Programming.
You’re an embarrassment to the state of Missouri.
You Sir, are tragically misinformed.
He probably knows better, he just doesn’t care.
No, it is science. A lot of citizens still believe in science. I wish you did.
This is not going to age well, Senator
Fascist
It’s not “alarmism” if it’s happening, DS.
Yeah sure, scientific facts and current extreme weather are just not a problem.
You’re right Eric, I trust you over the worlds leading scientists on this subject… [….]
Probably sarcasm.
It’s the cultists who cannot differentiate science from the occult.
Climate denialism is a cult .. FIXED IT
Denying what is happening to our climate, especially by an elected official, who is supposed to be working towards the good of the people, should be a crime. #GOPCorruptionOverCountry
Climate change deniers are ignorant and dangerous
Says a science denying fascist cult guy.
Go look at independent research and analysis by insurance companies. You will find they have determined climate change is real and getting worse.
Cool. So does that mean red states will stop crawling to the feds to bail them out after extreme weather events?
Climate change denying is a cult
MAGA is a genuine cult. A fascist one!
Like the projection here lol
See above.
Not really, there is loads of proof. You’re just a loser hack.
Idiot!!
You could just say “I am anti-Science” and be done with it.
Nope – climate alarmism is based on science – have you heard about that?
Interesting how you hate anything that will make the world a better place.
The tRump cult you’re in is deadly
You would know what being in a cult is like
What a surprise a Republican would say that. Republicans lie about everything. Move on.
Yes we should believe thought leaders like you instead 🤡🤡🤡
Consider the source.
Unbelievable that you would feel that way given all the scientific evidence we now have plus what’s happening right in front of us. Are you blind?
No, sir, he’s a republican.
All of science is a cult, really. Right? Not like it’s ever produced anything useful.
RNC Research-an oxymoron if ever heard one.
Heh.
Meanwhile your cult is flipping out over drag queens, cat boxes and books.
Actually, a cult would be a subset of the electorate that storms a nation’s capital and attempts to overthrow the government.
YOU are in a cult, skippy.
Everything about you bums me out. You are such a tool.
Ignoring climate change is short sighted and foolish, there is no Planet B.
There is no Planet B.
Aren’t you the Eric Schmitt that voted twice to sell land to the Chinese? Didn’t you once help over ride a veto to force the Governor to be able to do that? How’s that kind of thinking working out for you now that you’re in DC? Are you in a cult?
More science deniers, never underestimate the power of stupidity!
Climate Change Denialism is a cult. We’re already paying tens of billions per year because of it. Look beyond your radical right bubble to what’s going on globally in crop loss, mass migration.
Constituent services. It’s all about responding to constituents and outreach.

Replying to @markalfordkc
Are you ever going to respond to your contituents’ email to your office?
4:52 PM · Mar 10, 2023
An open public town hall in the district is never going to happen. It would be too much of a challenge to the prevailing right wingnut conventional wisdom.
