Corona virus, COVID-19, Michael Keith Bennett, missouri, obituary, pandemic

Michael Keith Bennett
1969 – 2021

Michael Keith Bennett, M.D., age 52, of Greenfield, MO, passed away March 6, 2021 at Barnes-Jewish Hospital in St. Louis due to complications from COVID-19.

Although COVID-19 posed the greatest concern for Dr. Bennett, he assured to provide his community and patients with the most accurate information to protect themselves, their loved ones and his community. Even while practicing the safest measures, Dr. Bennett fully understood the risk repeated exposure to sick or dying COVID patients would pose to his own health and well being. Even more so, he understood the heightened risks posed by those who chose not to protect others by wearing a mask or who threatened harm toward him and his family. Even still, he persevered in assuring their access to the latest medical expertise to heal and alleviate suffering. Our greatest pride is he remained fiercely independent and passionate about his core value as a physician, to heal the sick and dying. Although COVID-19 took his breath, it did not take his voice or spirit, these live within those who knew him. His last words were, “I love you” and we extend these words to you as a reminder to love and care for one another.

Yesterday, from Representative Vicky Hartzler (r):

Rep. Vicky Hartzler @RepHartzler
One. Two. Three. Four.

In the span of four seconds, $172,000 was doled out for President Biden’s spending package — of which a staggering 91% went to special interests.

That’s $43,000 per second. $3.7 billion every single day.

We are recklessly gambling with our future.
[….]
10:52 AM · Mar 24, 2021

As always, some of the responses:

Roughly 66,000 Missourians were receiving state unemployment benefits during the week ending Feb. 20, the most recent week for which data is available. Benefits that were ending 03/28 are extended to 09/21. Child tax credits will increased to $3,000. Gambling?

Staggering but predictable dishonest is literally the GOP tell.
[….]

Vicky how much did you receive last year in Federal subsidies? How much dark money have you received? Self interest, dark money, and corporations are who you serve. You will say and do anything to get reelected to keep that money train rolling.

The bill also contains an additional round of aid for renters and landlords, which could be welcome news in Missouri, where roughly 13 percent of renters surveyed by the Census Bureau in the last two weeks of February said they were not current on rent. Special Interests?

Remember when we spent $100’s of millions on dump trucks golf outings and overpaid at his hotels? Hold on while I go and look for your tweets about how outraged you were at our money going to that special interest.

You’re wrong…here’s my proof…where’s yours?

It has become an across the board Republican talking-point, re: the 9%…they refuse to believe that something outside of DIRECT COVID relief money is designed to provide relief. They are choking on their talking points now.

If only there were ways to make this round not needed. Could have started with not passing insane tax cuts. Maybe we could have had a WH who took the pandemic seriously and encouraged others to do so.

Maybe we wouldn’t need this round to be so big. Oh well.

This 91% thing is garbage. It’s not true and you know it but you’re hoping voters will not do the research and will follow you blindly.

Did not know that Hartzler farms was one of President Biden’s special interest. Congratulations Vicky!

Vicky’s so mad that she isn’t cashing in on this round.

Pretty crazy that Vicky had no problem with reckless spending for the last four years.

I wonder what changed…

What a drama queen you are. We have not forgotten how “your special interests” were served by the former guy when you got to dip your dirty hands into the previous relief package.

Oh I see…. you clowns actually count money when your donors aren’t getting a cut.

what are the special interests? public schools? lol

Missouri is in line for more than $2.5 billion in direct aid and over $1 billion more through an uptick in federal funding for the state’s Medicaid program, which would buoy coffers that have already taken in multiple billions of dollars in previous aid efforts. Gambling?

They don’t buy it. It goes on and on.

It’s been a year

Joe Biden (D) [2020 file photo].

This afternoon:

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
March 11, 2021

Remarks by President Biden at Signing of the American Rescue Plan

Oval Office

2:07 P.M. EST

THE PRESIDENT: Thank you for coming in. In the weeks that this bill has been discussed and debated, it’s clear that an overwhelming percentage of the American people — Democrats, independents, our Republican friends — have made it clear — the people out there have made it clear they strongly support the American Rescue Plan.

Yesterday, with the final passage of the plan in the House of Representatives, their voices were heard and reflect- — reflected in everything we have in this bill. And I believe this is — and most people, I think, do as well — this historic legislation is about rebuilding the backbone of this country and giving people in this nation — working people and middle-class folks, the people who built the country — a fighting chance. That’s what the essence of it is.

And I’m going to have a lot more to say about that tonight and in the next couple of days, and be able to take your questions.

But in the meantime, what I’m going to do is sign this bill, and make the presentation tonight. And then there’s going to be plenty of opportunities where we’re going to be on the road, not only talking about — what I’m talking about tonight is the impact on the virus and how we’re going to end this pandemic. And we’re going to talk all the elements of the bill, beginning Friday, Saturday, and through the week.

So, thank you for being here.

(The bill is signed.)

Got it. Thank you all. Appreciate it.

2:09 P.M. EST

Kamala Harris (D) [2019 file photo].

No thanks to Roy Blunt (r), Josh Hawley (r), Sam Graves (r), Vicky Hartzler (r), Billy Long (r), Blaine Luetkemeyer (r), Jason Smith (r), or Ann Wagner (r). The party of “No”.

Vicky Hartzler (r) [2016 file photo].

On Monday Roy Blunt (r) announced that he would not seek reelection to the U.S. Senate in 2022.

This afternoon:

Pre-packaged right wingnut spin.

Rep. Vicky Hartzler @RepHartzler
When 91% of a bill is designed to appease special interests, it’s not COVID “relief.”

Let’s be clear: This $1,900,000,000,000 bill is a partisan payoff.
[….]
2:36 PM · Mar 10, 2021

“…a partisan payoff..” Says the individual that got how much from the previous relief bill(s)?

Some of the responses:

Dear Vicky’s New Social Media Person—

You’re citing information that isn’t true. You’re trying to incite outrage to further divide a torn nation. And you’re parroting talking points that have been fact-checked + called false earlier today.

Be better than Vicky. Tell the truth.

Guess I won’t be buying anything at Heartland Tractor with that attitude.

Bipartisan: involving the agreement or cooperation of two political parties that usually oppose each other’s policies.

Bipartisan dosen’t mean the GOP complains about a bill, that is supported by the majority, until they get their way of screwing over the American people.

Hartzler is lying. That’s why she is in the minority.

Big Poverty finally gets a win.
Thanks for assuring your constituents that you oppose the general will of the people.

Yeah…special interest in helping people, healthcare, arts and humanities, prisoners are humans that will need to build a life after prison…none of the things in this list are bad…Why are you like this, what is wrong with you?

So you voted No to not provide relief to Americans who need help now. Instead you would much rather take more time debating as the American people continue to struggle to pay for food/rent/mortgage. Makes perfect sense… The Majority of Americans support this bill.

Absolute hogwash, Vic. Stop lying.

Would you just shut the hell up. Americans are getting help in spite of you and all other Republicans obstructing it. Your only option now is to continue spinning your lies. You failed the American people at a time when they most needed help. Resign.

2nd Congressional District, American Rescue Plan Act of 2021, Ann Wagner, Corona virus, COVID-19 relief, pandemic, Roy Blunt, U.S. Senate

On Monday Roy Blunt (r) announced that he would not seek reelection to the U.S. Senate in 2022.

Ann Wagner @RepAnnWagner
It is shameful that Democrats have disregarded their obligation to provide real COVID relief to the American people and are instead attempting to use this process to jam through partisan agenda items. This bill is not targeted, timely, nor tied to COVID.
10:47 AM · Mar 10, 2021

Yes, shameful, that’s the word.

There is much hilarity in the responses. First, from Ann Wagner (r):

We need to focus on solving the critical issues at hand—getting vaccines to Americans, providing relief for our local restaurants and entertainment venues, and supporting those who have been seriously impacted by this pandemic.

Uh…

Anyway, my family will happily accept the aid offered in the COVID relief bill, and we will remember that you didn’t want us to have it.

Timeliness would’ve been a lot better with a modicum of Republican support.

How much crack does the right smoke?

You are shameful.

It was shameful to go maskless in your district during a pandemic this Christmas (on a carriage ride, no less), and then to allow constituents to die because of your ineffective leadership to provide vaccines and meaningful aid. Talk about shameful. Take some responsibility, Ann.

This bill is the worst nightmare possible for Republicans like you. I feel your pain but frankly don’t care. You don’t understand what COVID did to this country, to families who have suffered under GOP policies for decades.

The Empire Is Striking back. You lost. We won.

Not quite the analogy I would have chosen, but it still works.

You’re lying. The bill addresses both The pandemic directly and the economic crisis that was created by COVID. These crises—made exponentially worse by the terrible leadership of the previous administration—must be tackled simultaneously.

It’s shameful that you, yet again, failed to support your constituents. We lament having you as our representation on a daily basis. We wonder how you sleep while you try to destroy so many lives and hope for someone who actually gives us a voice sometime soon.

There’s that shame thing again.

High irony using the word ‘shame’.

They haven’t. We know they haven’t. Stop lying. You’re embarrassing yourself, and your state.

Quit your damn lying. For once try to represent the interests of your constituents. Your cowardice and corruption are pathetic. [….]

You are so full of it. You are voting AGAINST $1,400 direct payments, jobless benefits, state and local aid, school assistance, and so much more. Why do you hate your own constituents? Why do you lie so much? Why are you so damn worthless, unethical, and corrupt?

Give it up Ann, you lying liar. This bill has incredible bipartisan support everywhere, even with republican voters. The only ones that don’t like it are republican obstructionists like yourself. [….]

@RepAnnWagner
Hey, traitor. Here’s the breakdown on the 2017 GOP Tax Bill.
-1.3 Trillion Corporate tax giveaway
-83 B to let heirs inherit larger estates
-435 Billion tax cut for the wealthiest 1% of Americans
You voted to overturn the Democracy. You are a traitor.
#GOPHypocrisy

There’s that.

American Rescue Plan Act of 2021, Corona virus, COVID-19 relief, Josh Hawley, missouri, obstruction, pandemic, social media, Twitter, Virginia

Josh Hawley (r) [2016 file photo].

Yesterday, from the third Senator from Virginia:

Josh Hawley @HawleyMO
.@mogop_jasper have been looking forward for many days to being with you tonight for Lincoln Days. But the Senate has stayed in session and I’m still in DC representing our state. I’ll keep on standing up for what we believe – unafraid – and hope to see you soon
11:24 AM · Mar 6, 2021

As usual, there was hilarity in most of the rsponses:

You voted against COVID-19 relief.

You don’t represent Missourians.

Josh, we here in Missouri are so very proud of what you are doing for us. Standings up for what us right and just and fair.We voted for you and have been very proud of you.

And the folks in Virginia?

Most of the people in Missouri I know didn’t, and the ones who did say they feel duped. They especially don’t like they found out he was lying about supporting pre-existing conditions, and conned them about even living here.

Who’s surprised that the party responsible for a violent insurrection that left 7 Americans dead, hundreds injured, ended a 232-year peaceful transition of power and whose own members are now currently under investigation by the DOJ wouldn’t vote for a plan to help Americans?

Personally I’m glad bill passed as I NEED the help! But, I totally agree with the reasons the Republicans are voting against it. It’s not the helping Americans part they object to, it’s the 90% of the bill going to things thst are not covid or people related.

Think about that for just a second.

I got mine, screw you (February 27, 2021)

except for you voted against the relief package after WEEKS of virtue signaling when it was politically convenient. Woj said it best. Resign.

Josh expressed a degree of concern;
about Wray’s probe he tried more to learn.
His hands fairly twitched; his
voice wavered & pitched. Maybe
Josh felt a tinge of heartburn?
Why focus on the metadata?
We very well may find out later.

Senators Hawley & Cruz have repeatedly expressed concern about the idea of the FBI looking into phone records of those in Congress, on & leading up to Jan 6. Hawley in particular has fumed about this “violation of privacy” in multiple hearings.

Mmm… Wonder why…

You voted against raising the minimum, guess you guys really aren’t the party of the working class.

The guy who instigated an attempt at political assassination — is going to celebrate “Lincoln Days.”

This shit writes itself.

This person won the Internets yesterday.

Wait…was Josh Hawley really planning to come back to Missouri?? Guess his sister was going to make up the spare bedroom for him at his “home” in Missouri.

You don’t represent us – we wanted the Covid relief bill & you voted against it. Thankful for the Democrats who passed it. They care. You don’t.

Maybe, and I’m just spit balling, don’t let your party waste 10 hours reading a bill just to be obstinate.

“Unafraid” is an odd word to throw in there…

Unafraid of what? The FBI gathering data on terrorists? Donors abondoning you as fast as they can?

At least you won’t have to pay for a hotel in Missouri, since you don’t have a house to stay at while there.

Here, let me fix this for ya: “Don’t worry, I’ll keep lying for you, and can’t wait to be thanked for it.”

Its your party’s fault it took this long.

Yeah, where is that vote for raising the minimum wage? Anyway, you support insurrection. Just stay at your Virginia home.

You don’t even live in Missouri, Josh

The very last place you represent is Missouri.

Unafraid? To represent a state you don’t live in?

Josh is busy trying to prevent financial help from reaching middle class families so that there will more $ to send to his billionaire donors.

So good to know Joshie cares so deeply for the people he used to live among! He clearly deeply connected! #JoshLies

You don’t represent me. (A Missouri resident.)

Pretty confident most Missourians oppose insurrection.

It’s close though.

Which state? The one where you live?

For what “we believe.” Maybe represent your entire state not just “we.”

There’s that.

Give it up. One termer.

You voted AGAINST the American people

He just tweeted this to another girl, dont believe him

You sure about that?

What are you afraid of? Hmm…

If you were truly unafraid you would not constantly say you are unafraid. #Traitor

“standing up for what we believe”. Is “what we believe” just limited to treason, insurrection, and sedition, or is there more to it than that?

The more you say you’re unafraid, the more we get the impression you’re trying to convince yourself otherwise.

Josh…what is it “exactly” that you believe in…

CERTAINLY NOT the working class. So rich people rejoice, the other hundreds of millions of you go F-yourself

Signed – j hawley

Biden COVID bill passed by Senate.

100% of Democrats supported it.
100% of Republicans who voted opposed it.

77% of all American voters support it and are relieved it passed.

Relief is coming, no thanks to Republicans!

@HawleyMO, are you able to help your constituents understand which parts of this you oppose? Be specific.

Another canned tweet from a deadbeat Senator.

Your no vote on the American Rescue Plan proves you have been lying all the times you swore to fight for $2000 stimulus checks. You and your obstructionist comrades don’t care a damn bit about working families struggling to keep their families fed and a roof over their head.

Y’all voted against the stimulus package so please tell your constituents to return their 1400.00

Yep.
