Senator Eric Schmitt (r) [2025 file photo].

“…Oh, a bullshit artist…”

On Friday:

Senator Eric Schmitt
[July 31, 2026]

The central plank of Democrat party is open borders and mass migration.
They want to import millions of illegal aliens, give them welfare benefits, and have them vote in our elections.
They’ve lost the case with the American people.
[….]

There was much hilarity in the responses:

Oh horsepuckey 🥴you’re a delusional white supremacist liar. RESIGN.

Horseshit works, too.

You lie. But then what is new?

Please list in detail and with citations the evidence for your claims.

[….] It is the responsibility of the person posting this absurd 💩to prove what they have stated!! Otherwise, it is just pure 🐂💩!!

[….] from Senator Eric-“I was told to do so by fellow Carpet Bagger Josh and the Dear Leader, Felon in Chief himself.”

Please don’t confuse MAGA supporters by asking for facts.

The Kool-aid is strong with Eric. 💪

Don’t forget to call them commies, that always works!

Is this satire?

Sadly, no.

Where, WHERE is there any policy statement stating open borders?

==========

The paid demobots bombarding all republican posts. This is why you can’t cater to democrats. They are evil people. You have to step on their heads and force them to leave the state. More mega, more anti-democrat laws. These people only want to destroy the state and the country. We have to destroy their will to stay.

Bullshit Im fighting this the all way. And Im not a bot. Im a Democrat/Liberal who cares about people and my beloved Country. I’m not evil, but you are, wanting people to leave. Simply because they disagree w/your narrative. This is free Country so you can fuck off!!

MAGA leaders are the ones destroying America. Sadly the MAGA followers just keep drinking the koolaid. 🗽

We didn’t elect a convicted rapist for president.

We’re constituents, ass face.

Such a shrewd judge of character!
Sure ~ keep cheering a twice-divorced adulterer and convicted sexual predator, an OBVIOUS PEDOPHILE, who ran up the federal debt, sloppily imposed tariffs, embraced the anti-American autocrats leading Russia and North Korea and Saudi Arabia and Qatar, who incited a storming of the Capitol – a man devoid of serious thought and guiding policy principles, a self-fixated candidate who presented no intellectual framework for his presidency, overtly racist, a convicted FELON, a man who pays more in hush money to porn stars than in taxes, who mocks the dead and threatens our deepest allies…

It is curious how every Republican accusation is a confession. Note how FB and other social media are overrun with Russian/Republican bots again with the coming election. But you accuse Democrats.

I’m not paid. I criticize Sen. Schmitt out of the goodness of my heart.

Wow, the “it’s my state and anyone who doesn’t agree with me should be stepped on” narcissism in this post is over the top, you should seek mental health counseling. Fascism is not a good replacement for democracy as much as you want it to be.

I believe it is the Republicans and Trumps Fascist party that are destroying our country

Give us more messaging from Adolf, translated from the original German, please.

And this is what passes for rational debate?

“Stupid people love me” DJT “Smart people don’t like me” DJT …Thank you for confirming that.

Dude, try pouring the kool-aid over your head instead of drinking it. It might cool you off.😊

Read what you wrote and tell me who actually sounds evil here.

What are the central planks of the Republican Party? How are those going?

What he means is.. hey daddy look at me, me!…lol

Running scared, are we?

“Central plank”? How about no stupid wars and affordability

The Ten Commandments address lying specifically in the ninth commandment, which is found in both Exodus 20:16 and Deuteronomy 5:20 of the Bible.Here is what the commandment states about lying and neighbors:The Text: The commandment instructs: “You shall not bear false witness against your neighbor”.The Original Meaning: In ancient Israel, this primarily served as a prohibition against perjury or giving false testimony in a court of law. It was meant to ensure that justice was served and that innocent people were not condemned by lies.Lying About Your Neighbor: The wording specifically focuses on harm directed at a neighbor, which in this context means any fellow human being, friend, or community member. It outlaws malicious deception used to hurt someone else’s reputation, steal their property, or compromise their safety.Broad Application: While the commandment originated to prevent judicial fraud, it is universally interpreted by major religious traditions (including Judaism and Christianity) as a broader prohibition against all forms of lying, gossiping, slandering, and spreading rumors that damage another person’s character.

Explain to me Eric, like I’m a college graduate, how it’s not socialism, communism even that the Federal government is now owning stakes in companies?

Wow, given the Republican party is currently in charge, and the current economy, fuel prices, grocery prices, and stagnating wages, he’s whining about the other party?

We have a winner!

Not a Democrat, but I do know some, and not one of them feels this way soooo I’m beginning to think this is some distractive 🐂💩

January 6th.

There’s that.

“Import?” 🤦🏼‍♂️

Another bag of baloney…

Your last name is German. Assuming your ancestors came here in 19th century…via open borders.

As opposed to Republicans who want nobody to have healthcare.

If so, have a town hall open to all. That’ll go well for you.

No it isn’t. Try again

u gonna bail out farm$ again??🤡

Still riding that tired old horse?

Tell me you’re part of the cult, without telling me you’re part of the cult.

I’d pay good money to see walk the plank!

It is better to remain silent and be thought a fool than to open one’s mouth and remove all doubt.

Don’t you get tired of saying the same lines over and over?

You aren’t reading appropriate materials if that’s what you think is the central plank. If you need to shorten their plank into one simple sentence try affordability along with opportunities for all.

Actually it’s Medicare for all. Try to keep up.

You are delusional and need to listen to all people, not just spread hate.

Why is it we never hear an original thought from this guy?

Name one Democratic candidate or incumbent that has said they want open borders. Just one.

Amazing, people can say this stuff with a straight face.

No it’s not. You wouldn’t be focused on these lies if you had anything, ANYTHING, positive to offer.

Why would you say this? It’s just not true for most democrats and you know this.
There are things on their platform that you likely don’t agree with but why make up things?

Federal law has banned undocumented immigrants from SNAP, Medicaid, and SSI since 1996. (Thanks Bill Clinton) That’s almost 30 years of bipartisan law. Some some states cover limited things like emergency care with state money, but “millions on federal welfare” just isn’t real.
Non-citizen voting in federal elections is already a felony. A handful of cities let non-citizens vote in local school board races. That’s not a party platform, that’s like five city councils.
So this isn’t really “facts,” it’s three myths stacked on top of each other.
To be fair, there are real debates to have about asylum policy and enforcement levels. Just not this version of them.

I am a Democrat and I can tell you that everything you just said is not true.

Oh, BS. As a Democrat, I want a reasonable path to citizenship, for the US to honor its promises to folks following a prescribed path. I also want healthcare, housing, food and education to be affordable. I want the administration to follow the Constitution and legal precedent.

I’m sorry, but I don’t actually believe that you have ever actually asked any of us what we think about anything. I would’ve definitely shown up for that conversation.
Personally, I’m really tired of being “othered” by partisan political hacks. I am an American citizen, born and raised in Missouri. Forced into a party affiliation by Missouri closed primary voting laws.
I do not believe in wide open borders, I do not believe that we should be propping up anyone, citizen or not, that is capable of supporting themselves and I don’t believe or think that everyone that enters the country should be eligible to vote in our elections. Neither does any other progressive voter that I know.
STOP LYING! STOP DIVIDING!
DO YOUR JOB and represent all Missourians, even those of us that did not vote for you! You wanted the job, you won the job! And you have spent your time and our money demonizing half of your constituency as the enemy to the other half.
DO BETTER.

Spoken by a former Missouri AG. You know those guys that uses to believe in due process.

Not really.

You are so misinformed Eric. It’s laughable that a human would even say such nonsense, particularly one who thinks he is intelligent.
Really?😲🙄 is that what you think?
And do you even think Americans would believe that?

None of this is supported by evidence. You have no good qualities to run on, so you have resorted to name calling and scare tactics. Every metric is negative. You can not show one positive outcome from this administration. We have seen what you have to offer and it’s a no for us dawg!

Actually, we want cheaper groceries, gas, housing. We want universal healthcare, a living wage, free college, paid family leave, paid vacation and childcare.

How’s that lying about the reflecting pool vandalism going?

Do Republicans ever tell the truth? About anything? I’m beginning to think the answer might be NO.

blah blah blah

Actually it you and your fascist fellow Republicans who have lost your case with the American people .

No it is not. Do any of you ever fact check or do any research?

You’re so full of shit

You realize we didn’t have a border patrol until 1924 right? and we only even started patrolling officially off and on in 1904. Though there were informal “Chinese Inspectors” since the “Chinese exclusion act” in 1882
So I’m fairly certain, our history, says “your a fucking moron”.
Correct me if I’m wrong.

You can always tell when a Rapethuglican is lying because they’re breathing.

Stop with the hysteria. Your degree of spreading lies and disinformation is astounding! I can’t believe that sensible people have voted for you.

Is there even one Republican telling the truth and actually working for their constituents?

Keep a fire extinguisher near your pants at all times.

You’re so full of shit Eric, lie to the public just to save your ass and your half baked party’s ass. Stop gaslighting you POS.

Where’s your evidence?
When your party has only manufactured fear to offer. It’s telling 😉

Well, no it actually isn’t. Why lie about it?

Is Mitch McConnell available for comments?

Don’t drink the koolaid folks…unbelievable

Asshole!!!!

Say desperately out loud lies to say how desperately you need to lie

How’s your war going?

“War [good god!] Is Good [what is it good for?] For Absolutely Nothing [say it again!]”
Circa 2001-2005.
28 x 22, posterboard, permanent marker.

Lying fool. 🤡

Lazy recital of the latest scare tactics by an obvious toady.

You are makin’ stuff up; these are lies, and history will be brutal to you. Can’t wait.

No one with any sense believes you, asshole

Drinking the kool-aid again? You are a joke

You just demonstrated your lack of critical thinking ability.

You are a #1 grade A doofus. People are worried about food prices, healthcare, housing, things your party are cutting for the most vulnerable. Elections haven’t been a problem until 🍊🤡. And you are helping him destroy America!!

Hey there, Eric, remember Missouri. You know, where your constituents live and vote. Some of us are a bit more concerned with gas closing in on $4 a gallon, grocery prices through the roof, and an insane war waged by Trump, without consulting with Congress.

You know that is untrue. This shows you can’t be trusted to be honest. Shame on you

What a mud slinger you are. Tell us what you are for and quit lying about the Democrats. Find some integrity and decency. “Show Me” that you deserve to be a Senator. You are looking like a lost cause these days, undeserving of an office.

No it’s not but you sure as hell can’t run on this disastrous administration. You have no shame

Hate fills your heart dude.

That’s not what they want. Why do you deliberately lie? Do you not have your own policies to promote. Is your only stance attacking democrats with a false narrative. If that’s all you’re about you need to get the fuck out.

You are a joke …. And a bully.

Pretty presumptuous of you to tell me what I believe or don’t believe in.

Idiotspeak

Do people actually believe these lies?

Settle down, bubba. Take your meds.

Oh look. Making crap up. Why? Truth is a vote loser, I guess.

You do realize that the magat cult stupid enough to believe you is shrinking, right?

1. Obama was originally called the reporter in chief.
2. You can’t receive welfare without a valid SSN number.
3. Only Trump has put out a ” gold card” to fast track immigrant to citizenship.
So how are your claims true? Propaganda against democrats for something that is not true is called lying. On top of that demonizing a marginalized ethnic people is wrong. Separation of ethnic backgrounds is supposed to be against the law. No matter executive order or not equality has always been an American value. You sir are white that = immigrant at some point in your own family history. Since we are in Missouri I truly hope you understand pot calling kettle black doesn’t make it right.

Jesus Fucking Christ…Do these people actually believe this? I mean seriously, if they were in court and started spouting this nonsense, they would be referred for a competency hearing…this is literally insane…

No it isn’t, you lying, misrepresenting fuckwad.

Again, why would you make up this ‘crap’. From a person who supported gerrymandering to favor a political party in the upcoming midterm elections and is trying to pass the act that would impact far more legal votes than illegal votes. So, it’s also disgusting that you’re supporting these things that are trying to change things unfairly to gain election results.
While I think the moderate Republicans want rules to be enforced fairly, the Republicans & current President you support do not enforce rules fairly. The current administration is not concerned with the common working class Americans – the focus is on helping billionaires get richer.

What in the world are you blabbing about? You know that’s not true. Please worry about something of importance for your constituents.

Pssst….. lol, we don’t believe you.

This would be funny if it wasn’t so stupid.

Senator Schmitt, you are lying. Non-citizens do not qualify for federal aid and they do not vote. If this were true, Republicans would have brought cases to court– with proof– but they haven’t because there is no proof. You are hawking a bogus conspiracy theory to gullible constituents for political gain. I can’t think of anything more dishonorable. You’re a pandering con-man who has forgotten his oath to the Constitution. YOU are the disgusting one. Lies do not become truth no matter how many times they are repeated.
Grammar check: it’s the Democratic Party, not the Democrat Party.
On a personal note, you may want to consider asking God for forgiveness.

Republicans like being laughed at.

The central plank of the Republican Party is thinking all Americans are stupid enough to believe their lies.

No election platform of substance, sow fear. Old strategy

More nonsense from the right. Lie and deny is all they know. Bunch of fascists

You are so full of it Schmitt. Open borders and mass migration? No, how about Medicare for all? How about free and fair elections? How about ending this senseless war in Iran? How about Senators that stand up against a pay to play corrupt government? Affordable housing, affordable education, affordable child care, affordable groceries for crying out loud?

Why do you think people would believe such ludicrous claims? It’s embarrassing.

No, it’s not. Not even close. But hey, while we’re on the subject, what’s the central plank of the republican party? Other than kissing the felon’s butt and trying to scare the stupid? Haven’t heard a thing about what you’re going to do to improve life for the American people. Not one word.

Fearmongering is for pols with no platform and voters incapable of thinking critically.

Shut the fuck already! This bullshit line is really getting old. What else do you guys have? Healthcare? Lower grocery prices? Lower gas prices? How about you talk about something real instead of made up 💩 like this. 🤷‍♂️

You know what your motto should be, Eric? “I love to hurt people who live in Missouri”. You have two years left in office and I cannot wait to start working to remove you and all the other pedophile loving people in your ass-backwards party.

The hell it is you asshole. Quit the fucking fear mongering all the damn time, you sycophantic piece of shit.

Somebody has overdosed on the Kool Ade. Every time a politician even hints that working people should get paid a fair wage the overlords panic and yell Communism. Are hospitals and roads communist? Are police and ambulance services Communist? Sometimes people just like to get together to have projects that benefit everyone. And sometimes that includes our immigrant neighbors. And a lot of workers are immigrants. They aren’t all on welfare. Statistics show they have a really short stay if they are allowed to work. This is just hate propaganda.

A fascist says, “what”. Fuck off, Nazi

You are a liar. Stop with the hate. One day you may need someone that doesn’t “belong” to your hate party. And they will help you. Because they aren’t you.

You are a lying fucking piece of shit. You are a despicable excuse for a human.

I couldn’t find any party “plank” that contained these things.
Eric, are you just another liar who is happy to sully our political process?
Shame

You know, you’re really making it hard for me to really figure out whether you or Hawley is a bigger asshole & who has more shit for brains…you’re a stale piece of bootlicking toast bud

It’s not. You fucking shithead!

You’re a U.S. senator. Why are you making this up?

Senator – i truly believe your fear mongering will be viewed for what it is. Please furnish the proof. We keep hearing these unsubstantiated claims but investigation has been going on for years by independent entities. Please quit insulting our intelligence.

“Open borders” are a lie made up by people who think that making people afraid of boogiemen passes for leadership. Immigrants are not our enemies. People scrounging to make a living mowing lawns and laying bricks are not the real criminals afflicting this nation. Pay attention to the man behind the curtain.

Republicans support an oligarchy and not the people. Every move you make proves it

“…There are many copies. And they have a plan.”

For people that are hellbent on plastering the 10 Commandments all over the place sure don’t seem to have problem lying.

Do your homework, Eric. Is the Republican platform so bankrupt that the only thing you can do is to misrepresent your opponents’ position and then attack the misrepresentation.

Apparently.

You’re an idiot. It’s the Repubs that keep get beaten in court and public opinion. You are a liar.

The central prank of the Republican Party is drumming up sympathy for billionaires so they don’t have to pay taxes

Yeah, yeah, yeah – The Democrats are all Communists who are possessed by demons. worship Satan and will use vaccines to control.your minds.
Now what the hell are Republicans going to do to clean up the mess that have made of our country?
Want to start with Trump’s war?

It must be a very lucrative gig to wake up and lie your ass off every day.

What has this administration and the Republicans touched that is going well? We are getting poorer. We have to give the farmers 12 billion to bail them out due to tariff wars. China is buying soybeans from Brazil now. People cannot afford basic necessities including healthcare. We have explosive diarrhea and poor air quality caused by climate change. Are we going to leave a world to our children and grandchildren where Canada and Europe are burning? You are spineless and feckless. Why are you voting to take healthcare away with tax cuts for the billionaires? Why are we sending tax dollars to Israel? I want Israeli citizens to be safe but I am not ok with starving and killing thousands of children. Israel has affordable healthcare for all but we do not.

I get it Senator, we are headed into the mid terms with the most corrupt president imaginable and You and Your party has facilitated the corruption all the way. You need a distractions. You need a scapegoats to cover up your parties failures. We know, all the Democrats are “commies”, they all want open borders, they want to fill the country will immigrants and sign them up to vote.
You don’t want us thinking about the 1.8 billion dollar slush fund for Trump’s friends. You want to for get the billions Trumps and his family are making off the presidency. You want us to forget about the people who have been shot or died in ICE custody.
You promised lower food prices But they went ever higher with the tariffs, You promised lower gas prices but the Trump got the Straits closed, You promised ‘No New Wars’ but now we are stuck in Iran, You betrayed your constituents by cutting medicaid and passing the biggest tax cut for millionaires and billionaires ever, You promised to deport “the worst of the worst” but you are shipping everyone you can find out of the country.
Why do I say you have done these things? Because you and the rest of the republican legislatures lack there courage to hold Trump responsible – you have abdicated your constitutionally mandated role as a representative of the people who elected you.

==========

I support euthanizing open borders proponents, euthanizing redistribution advocates, and all DSA members/supporters. It’s time to cleanse the parasites and morons from America

Welcome to early 21st-Century America.

==========

You do realize the only thing stupider than this statement… Are the imbeciles that support you

See above.

Do you really believe the shit you’re spewing?

*sigh*. You just look desperate. What are you afraid of?

Accountability.

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.

You all know what to do

Eric Schmitt (r) [2022 file photo].

Yesterday:

Eric Schmitt
[July 22, 2024]
[….]Today I’m demanding the Biden Harris cabinet invoke the 25th Amendment.
If Biden isn’t capable of being a candidate, he’s not capable of being President.
My letter to VP Harris and the Biden Harris cabinet members.
[….]

JULY 22, 2024
SENATOR SCHMITT SENDS LETTER TO BIDEN CABINET SECRETARIES CALLING FOR INVOCATION OF THE 25TH AMENDMENT
[….]
“Joe Biden has decided he is not capable of being a candidate; in doing so, his admission also means he cannot serve as President….”
[….]

No genius, Joe Biden has decided he’s not going to run for reelection. That’s it.

What a maroon.

Some of the responses to Eric Schmitt (r):

[….] you are right. Trump was and is not fit for office.

Biden on his worst day is better than all you Trumpers put together. Trump needs to step aside too. He’s way too old and his mental competency is also questionable. This country needs fresh younger people to lead it

Maybe Joe should bring an angry crowd to the Capitol on Jan 6th and LIKE A PSYCHOPATH attempt to stay in office. Lol

Bro you support a felon who has been impeached twice. Like maybe don’t though.

Of course you are!! Lol. I expect nothing less from you other than wasting money. Fantastic job.

You “demanding” anything is laughable. You and MARGE flip for it??

We’re voting for the YOUNGER candidate who isn’t a convict!

It takes more guts and concern for our country to decide to do what was best for the country and not to run than anything you have done in your short ineffective term. You just can’t stop with the hate and demonization for a man who did an honorable thing.

People are laughing at you

You are pissing into the wind Eric

On the floor. Probably.

You know, perhaps Joe should just go ahead and cancel the election, since Presidents have immunity and all. He can appoint VP Harris to four more years.

Let’s see the speaker thinks states should sue to keep him on the ballot and you want to invoke the 25th amendment to get him out. Which is it?

[….] They never think things through. Mad he was running, now mad he isn’t.

Eric, your demands are meaningless. Spare us the pretend pearl-clutching and posturing. Grow up and concentrate on your job.

That’ll never happen.

Today? You mean, you have had ample opportunity to interact with Joe Biden, but for some reason you suddenly became concerned about his competency? Very interesting.

Trump isn’t THAT much younger than Biden and is on record lookin pretty senile himself. Maybe you should look at your own candidate.

You are incapable of being a decent human. Retiring from a job doesn’t mean you can’t do the job. Gaslighting fascist traitor. Forever.

What a joke. Sit TF down…you look like a idiot.

Ignorant nasty Eric .. just nasty . Dehumanizing for power only .. pretty consistent . Magas don’t govern , they just do nasty while our state gets nothing from this guy .

Corrupt Eric Schmitt didn’t want any amendments invoked when Trump started an insurrection and committed National Security crimes.

You are an asshat.
Biden is not incompetent and your demands are empty and mean nothing.
Kamala will still be what the Republicans are facing. And you have no idea how to handle her. And no way to run anyone but your demented “leader” against her.
Hahaha! I love it!

Demand on, dipshit

Senator, there is a significant difference between finishing 5 months of your term and running for another 4 years. Joe Biden is capable of completing his presidency. Why not honor President Biden for his decades of service instead of making pointless demands.

You are full of it. Low unemployment, high stock market, crime down. Quit telling lies and do something good.

STFU tool bag.

Will you STFU with your utter stupidity! You are disgrace to the state, a disgrace to this country, and just am over all disgusting human being.

What are you letting Tommy Tuberville (r) continue to do?

Do tell. Do explain.

Yesterday, from Eric Schmitt (r):

Eric Schmitt
[November 11, 2023]
[….]
A big thank you to all the veterans out there on this #VeteransDay . Thanks for your sacrifice and your service to this great country. We appreciate you!

Some of the responses:

And yet you endorsed the orange turd.

Resign you pandering lying hack

Eric. You and your party have consistently left veterans out in the cold quite literally.
Go shove your flag waving and go do your job. [….]

Honor our veterans by strengthening our military. Actively work to stop tuberville’s blockade. It is easy to say thank you.

People are noticing.

Josh Hawley (r) [2016 file photo].

Today, from Josh Hawley (r):

Senator Josh Hawley
[July 20, 2023]
Hawley says DOJ continues to interfere with GOP ‘efforts to find out: Is the president of the US a crook?’
[….]

If it’s not political, why would the GOP be making ‘efforts’. Why not the U.S. Senate? Just asking.

Some of the responses:

It’s mind boggling the comments supporting searching for something, anything to try to find a way to make Biden look bad.
But trump, with all the crimes he committed, still has people cool with all he did. Defend him like he did nothing wrong. Make excuses for him. I just don’t get it.

Can you tell me what Hawley has done in the past 4 years to improve the lives of Missouri’s residents? He must have a list of accomplishments, I just can’t find any…thanks for your enlightenment.

and you notice, it’s like crickets whenever you ask that question. Never a response.

Thank you; I’m trying to understand how Missouri elects someone who doesn’t care about improving the lives of its residents. Missouri is one of the states listed as receiving the highest Federal Aid for underserved residents. Wages are low, the school systems are rated at the bottom, the wealthy are not fairly taxed, health care is abysmal, especially for women and children. I hope the voters educate themselves before marking their ballots in 2024.

they love him because he hates the same people.
They care about what they are told to care about then they blindly follow.
The gov recently declined federal aid to the needy.
These are self destructive hate filled …. people.
It’s bad here. Real bad. Most can no longer afford rent even in two income homes.
Food cost have forced many to stop eating meat alltogether. ( interesting that artificial meat suddenly appears )
Health care is abysmal and cost for care make most choose to die. They’re great at collecting Healthcare debt. Really good at that
Dental care is … awful coupled with crooked providers.
The list goes on.
But hay they saved unwanted babies and increased the likelihood that you’d have one too.

He (Hawley) should be investigated for fomenting insurrection and then running like a little girl.

Good grief. Then we should look into the criminality of Hawley and his support/association with Jan 6 insurrectionists. Hawley continues to support the former president who has 71 pending felonies, and it appears there more to come. Until only recently, Hawley’s cover photo “proudly” displayed a picture of himself and the former president, who led an insurrection based on lies. Hawley promoted this man’s lies while giving the insurrection crowd a raised fist of support. And glory be, a Twitter post from Dec. 2020 shows that Hawley even has the support of currently indicted Meshawn Maddock, one of the Michigan fake electors, then Hawley went on to contest the Electoral Count even after the horrendous attack on the US Capitol.
But Hawley has never raised an eyebrow or criticized their lies or lawlessness. Biden has never had a hint of criminality in his past while the former president has a long history of questionable acts and immorality, many based on court testimony and court judgments, as well as testimony of close GOP close and attorneys. Recently, Hawley spoke at a Florida conference that featured the former president and many who reportedly participated in the Jan 6 insurrection plans, who still peddle 2020 election lies, and who continue to support the twice (soon to be three maybe four) times indicted former president who has already been found civilly liable for sexual abuse, whose charity was dissolved for misusing funds (stealing from charity), who closed his own university (settled out of court) due to “shocking pattern of illegality,” whose attorney and CFO were sent to prison for actions either ordered or approved by him.
Maybe the Congress should question Hawley’s criminality based upon his support, without reservation or remorse, of those who have and those who have allegedly committed crimes against our government. How much money does he receive for his on-going attempts to deceive his constituents?

And you tried to interfere in a fair election! Now you are scared you might be held accountable for your actions! Run, Josh, run!

I wish Missouri had a Senator that worked for the people of Missouri.

No such luck.

This man has done absolutely nothing for Missouri since he was elected all he done is self-promote and make political talking points

Your problem is not that a President may be corrupt. Your problem is that YOUR ex-President is being accused of serious crimes and you don’t want to have to admit, if necessary, that he was anything but perfect. That would reflect on your past support of his actions. What you are looking for is revenge in a two-tiered system of justice white-washed with complaints about what is an even-handed rule of law.

Bad combover. Check. Too long red tie. Check. Orange spray tan. Check. Tiny hands. Check. Cluelessness. Check…

If Democrats were “rigging elections,” we’d have single-payer healthcare, clean water, no Fox News and solar cars by now

There’s that.

Some crook named Trump is under indictment for stealing classified materials

There’s that, also.

Yesterday on Facebook:

Eric Schmitt
This election wasn’t about me, it was about the future of this great country.
[….]

Some of the responses:

You won’t fight for me. You won’t fight for the 10 year old rape victim; you’ll fight for her rapist. You won’t fight for those who are impoverished. You’ll fight for the corporations. You won’t fight for eduction; you’ll fight to destroy it. You won’t fight for minorities or LGBTQ; you’ll fight to take away any hard won rights they have. So when you say Missouri, you’re saying white conservative males. [….]

Interestingly, he didn’t mention Missouri.

You’ll be a senator for yourself, just like you were an AG

I’ve heard him spread disinformation and prejudice for 2 years while pledging to be an obstacle to anything bipartisan in DC. He doesn’t deserve a chance, and should have been impeached from AG for abuse of office

Yea – that “hoodie-in-the-pizza-parlor” image sure went away fast! Now it’s power-suits and sucking up to Ted Cruz for “the boy-from-Bridgeton”…

Eric you will be a senator for the Lobbyists not Missouri……You have already got your eye on that NRA money that Roy Blunt got and China will be knocking on your door soon!!! LOL…….

So your social media team decided to stick with inanities? Got it.

Hey, Schitty…are ya gonna sue the schools that are closing as result of the RSV breakout???? Oh, wait…you’ve already “won,” so I guess you’re done using frivolous lawsuits to campaign now, aren’t ya?
You’re gonna do NOTHIN’ for Missouri; you’re gonna step on every one of us to work your way to the Oval Office. You’re nothin’ but an opportunist.

Just red in the paper how you intend to have Ted Cruz as your “Senatorial mentor”… Was there ever ANY DOUBT you would pick the most-hated person in America as your hero? [….]

Future vacations in Cancun with is new pal.

Bullshit.

Not for women.

I don’t believe you.

Last night:

Eric Schmitt @Eric_Schmitt
Democrats think raising taxes will fix the inflation they created. The misnamed “Inflation Reduction Act” will supercharge the price hikes wrecking our economy and force families to pay more in taxes. When I get to the Senate, I’ll be ready to stop to these socialist boondoggles.
7:45 PM · Aug 7, 2022

From the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics on August 5th:

Payroll employment rises by 528,000 in July; unemployment rate edges down to 3.5%
Total nonfarm payroll employment rose by 528,000 in July, and the unemployment rate edged down to 3.5 percent. Both total nonfarm employment and the unemployment rate have returned to their February 2020 pre-pandemic levels.

As usual, there was much hilarity in the responses to Eric Schmitt (r):

Would have voted to prevent capping insulin at $35 a month?

DEMOCRATIC PRIORITIES: Reduce inflation, make prescription drugs more affordable, protect the climate, more jobs, protect human rights

REPUBLICAN PRIORITIES: Defend Alex Jones, insurrection, higher insulin costs, break up marriages, force 10 year olds to have their rapists’ baby

Maybe you should sue somebody about it. That’s the only thing you do anyway you useless grifter.

Keep in mind that you weren’t the best Eric. You just weren’t (quite) the worst Eric. Raising the tax rate for those making over $400,000 per year will have negligible impact on Missouri families. Wasting our tax dollars on frivolous lawsuits against our school districts hurt.

Don’t you have to go waste our tax money trying to sue china or something? Get out of here

Boring and predictable. Let us know if you ever plan on fighting for anything worthwhile.

Don’t know how to break it to you Sparky but most Americans don’t make more than $400,000 a year, but then again they don’t have access to all that nice corporate cash or all that dark money you’ve got.

If you were to get to the Senate, you would be every bit the failure you are as AG.

Oh my gawd. What a load of crap.

Dude, you sue the school systems. Lol

Democrats created global inflation? If you think most families make 400k+ you are quite out of touch. Personally, I’m happy that billion dollar companies will have a minimum tax.

If you get to the Senate you’ll be to busy grandstanding to know what the hell is going on.

Cringeworthy that you are anywhere near a political office.

Inflation is a global thing. No one party did anything to start it,and the donors of the GQP are in profiteering off of it.

“Socialist” is an interesting way of describing getting rich people to pay SLIGHTLY more ! [….]

So the only way to keep inflation down is to let corporations not pay taxes, so they don’t increase their prices? How the fuck is that going so far?

As a Missourian Mr. Schmitt, let me say this…you are a freaking moron.

“If you’re not a tax cheat, hedge fund manager or a corporation making over $1 billion, you’re not affected.”

Eric Schmitt (r) [2021 file photo].

Today:

Eric Schmitt @Eric_Schmitt
It’s almost as if all the fear mongering around COVID was just one big power play.
1:36 PM · Mar 12, 2022

Sociopath.

Some of the responses:

Jason Kander @JasonKander
Replying to @Eric_Schmitt
Are you vaccinated? Did you get the booster?
3:24 PM · Mar 12, 2022

It’s as if the claim about fear mongering around COVID is just another example of Schmitt’s stupidity.

950,000 US deaths; 19,500 MO deaths. Many with long haul COVID and our healthcare system almost breaking. No one should worry about that.

What a ghoul!

20k dead constituents could not be reached for comment.

Help me understand this. I’m not supposed to care about something factual, but whatever you’re selling is legit. Just how much is your snake oil and where can I purchase some?

What is wrong with you? [….]

Day drinking and tweeting again Eric? What’s this even about? See this is why you lose so many lawsuits; all accusation, no context.

It’s almost as if all the COVID-denialism (almost 1 million US deaths!) was just one big power play… (as you, for example, run for senate)

It’s hard for me to understand an elected politician being so openly dismissive of nearly a million dead Americans as @Eric_Schmitt seems to be.

Kinda like “build a wall” bullshit right???

My father died of Covid. You are a horrible person.

So the people who died from COVID were just part of a huge fear mongering power play? You are an idiot.

It’s almost as if you’re a #PoliticalHack.

People have tried to explain the science behind the measures to mitigate the impact of the COVID pandemic to you but obviously you cannot comprehend. So now we just have you spewing forth your vomit of lies and misinformation.

Do you LIKE playing the miserable SOB who people loathe with a passion?

Right, f*ck those petty people that buried family and friends.

So, everyone who has died from Covid don’t really exist? Brick shy of a load Schmitt.

You’re an idiot. Millions have died. What a pathetic existence you live.

Tell that to everyone who lost people. Asshole.

Or you’re just an idiot

My god. What the actual fck is wrong with you? Are you seriously so desperate for attention you sit there and make lists of the most vile things you could say? A lot of people died. A lot are suffering long term effects. This is disgusting and your family should feel shame.

How many of your constituents died from it last week, you monstrous shit?
