Apparently, Rick Brattin (r) is not pure enough for our new Fascist overlords. Not that we care.

This mail piece attacking Rick Brattin (r), from a right wingnut committee, arrived at rural addresses in the 31st Senate District this weekend:

Why is Rick Brattin on the fence

In the fight to protect American agriculture manufacturers and prevent outsourcing our food supply to China?

President Trump is cracking down on China & needs your help

Call state Sen. Rick Brattin [xxxxxxxx] & tell him to keep our food supply made in America

China wants to infiltrate our food supply

We need to keep Chinese Communist Party Chemicals out of our food

Urgent action required!

Paid for by Protecting America Initiative
1426 N. 3rd Street
Suite 310
Harrisburg, PA 1702

They beleave wier awl stoopit.

Squirrel!

A distraction from retaliatory tariffs on American agriculture, anyone?

Who did this?:

Our Mission
The Chinese Communist Party (CCP) is engaged in an active campaign to sabotage America. Their goal is nothing less than world dominance.

The Chinese government in Beijing is carrying out a sophisticated plan designed to exert control over America’s economy, food supply, lawmaking, and education. One crucial element of the CCP’s blueprint for domination is to infiltrate states across the country.

From buying up farmland to influencing state legislative outcomes by directly lobbying lawmakers, the Chinese government will stop at nothing to exert control in the United States.

China’s threat is comprehensive. The CCP’s focus is not just Washington, D.C. – they desire influence at the state and local levels as well. State officials must not allow foreign adversaries to take over local economies or write our laws.

The Protecting America Initiative is a coalition of concerned American citizens and public policy experts who are committed to stopping Chinese influence in the states. Our mission is to stop the threat of Communist China at the state level. By protecting American independence now, we will safeguard our American future for generations to come.

And:

Our Team

RICHARD GRENELL, Senior Advisor
Former Ambassador to Germany and Acting Director of National Intelligence in the Trump Administration

Richard Grenell is an American diplomat who most recently served as Acting Director of National Intelligence in President Donald Trump’s Cabinet. Grenell served as the United States Ambassador to Germany from 2018 to 2020 and as the Special Presidential Envoy for Serbia and Kosovo Peace Negotiations from 2019 to 2021. Grenell also ran the U.S government’s global campaign to decriminalize homosexuality in the 69 countries where it is a crime to be gay. Grenell was named Acting Director of National Intelligence by President Trump in February 2020, officially making him the first openly gay person to serve in a President’s Cabinet. On April 26, 2018, Grenell was confirmed by the United States Senate by a vote of 56 to 42 as Ambassador to Germany and presented his credentials to the President of Germany on May 8, 2018. Grenell was a U.S. State Department spokesperson at the United Nations for 8 years during the George W. Bush administration and was a voting member of the United Nations Security Council. Grenell also was the foreign policy and national security spokesman for the 2012 GOP Presidential nominee. Grenell has been placed on the Iranian government’s sanctions list for his work in promoting human rights, something they call “promoting homosexuality”. Grenell received the U.S. National Security Medal, the nation’s highest security award, as well as the nation’s highest Medal of Honor from Kosovo and from Serbia. Grenell is the co-creator of an Artificial Intelligence technology for chronic patients which was formed from his 2013 diagnosis of non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma. Grenell has a B.A. from Evangel College and an M.P.A. from Harvard University’s John F. Kennedy School of Government.

Raymond James (D) in the 31st Senate District – rights

Raymond James For Mo Senate #31
[September 25, 2024]

I heard Rick Brattin speak last night he talked of the “WAR” he is in to defend Parents Right to raise their children as they see fit.
Spoke to one of his supporters. Bill Irwin incoming State Rep #55 who ran unopposed. Told him I agree with Rick and him. Parents should be free to raise their children without government interference.

He seemed to agree but quickly wanted to agree to disagree when it comes to libraries. His opinion “objectionable” books should never be in a library. The idea that a parent could decided for themselves if their child could read a book was wrong. Forget putting it back on the shelf – ban it because one member of the community objected.

Tried to get him to understand how Parents should have the right to send their child to private school, home school, public school and to determine health care decisions for them. We seemed to agree until I brought up that includes Parents making decisions to listen to their child and doctors when it comes to trans teens. He said he did not understand. Stated it again but he could not grasp why parents have the right to send their child to a school of their choice but cannot get medical care as advised by their doctor because of his beliefs not the beliefs of the parents or their child. Tried to explain again.

At which point he objected.

He then went off on the Abortion Amendment saying if it passes parents would not have a say in surgeries for their minor children. He seemed to be saying all surgiers. That a minor could get a sex change without a parent agreeing to it.

When challenged to show the wording in the amendment he again chose to agree to disagree and moved away.

Rick and his Christian Nationalist are a threat to our democracy.

No way should this man should have been allowed to run unopposed.

They want Freedom for themselves while telling you how to live your life.

State government should be about good roads, excellent schools, properly functioning State agencies.

The culture “Wars” are started to make a small segment of voters mad. Mad enough to show up at the polls and vote.
I am all about Freedom.

You decide what book to read, get a tattoo or not, wear your hair as you like, marry who you want, raise your children in a church, home school or send them to a public school. Have a breast reduction or a breast enlargement. Wear the clothes you want.

This is the US you have the Freedom to make your choices.
You do not have the Freedom to dictate to others how they have to dress, wear their hair, what they eat, when or how they worship or who they marry.
For now, we also have the freedom of assembly, to gather with like minded people as you see fit. Book club, car shows, church service, bingo at the Legion or attend a Pride event.

What events will Rick and his freedom caucus decide must be canceled next because they don’t approve of them?

What choices will they try and take away from you?

You do you and let others do the same.

31st Senate District, campaign finance, Dan Houx, H-PAC, meta, missouri, PAC, Rick Brattin, right wingnuts, theft

The primary election is tomorrow.

The last piece of right wingnut republican attack mail for the 31st Senate District primary arrived in today’s mail:

There isn’t a lick of difference between right wingnut Dan Houx (r) and any of the other right wingnuts running in the republican primary.

“Trying to use taxpayer funds to defend himself in a Twitter [we would have used the term ‘social media’] lawsuit”

True.

Collecting more than $500K in taxpayer funded salaries

That’s probably correct. But it’s a stupid statement. All people who hold elected public office at those levels get paid a salary. Over time it adds up. Dan Houx (r) has been collecting “taxpayer funded salaries” for a while, too.

Sending taxpayer-funded mailers to voters

True. They all can do that. It’s called “franking”. What Rick Brattin (r) did was send a franked piece that looked like a campaign mailing unseemly close to the primary election.

And, China, China, China.

Wait, that image looks familiar.

Those assholes stole my image:

Rick Brattin (r) [2013 Show Me Progress file photo].

[Click on image to enlarge] The dimples and wrinkles in the suit jacket are exactly the same, the hair and hair gel(ish) are exactly the same, the facial expression is exactly the same, the tie and tie knot are exactly the same, the collar and its placement are exactly the same, the stance is exactly the same. They apparently edited out the legislator pin on his lapel.

It was the fifth image in a sequence of five taken from the side gallery of the House chamber:

They spent a ton of money on their mailers and yet they were too cheap ass to pay for a tracker or paparazzi to get their own images. They stole mine. Thieving losers.

China, China, China – from a PAC mailer during the right wingnut republican primary in the 4th Congressional District in 2022:

Rick Brattin (r) lost that primary.

Rick Brattin (r) [2013 file photo].

We’ve been inundated republican primary mail pieces. Inundated is an understatement. Someone is spending a lot of money.

One right wingnut’s state senate primary bid in particular:

And:

Those mailings were paid for by AFC Victory Fund with a return address in Dallas, Texas.

At the Missouri Ethics Commission:

And:

And:

And, the pièce de résistance:

Which is it? Did Rick Brattin (r) sell our farmland to China, or not? It’s hard to tell these days, right wingnut republican orthodoxy keeps changing.

These mail pieces were paid for by True Patriot PAC with a return address in Jefferson City, Missouri. And where did they get their money (via the Missouri Ethics Commission)?:

Aside from mailings funded by different PACS and a blatant campaign franking piece paid for by Missouri taxpayers what do you think Rick Brattin’s campaign is spending money on? Yard signs? Just asking.

As always, we don’t allow ignorant trolling comments out of moderation to be linked with the original post, but we will present some of them in subsequent posts for the purpose of public derision and mockery. As we see fit.

We see fit.

This comment was submitted today in response to Campaign Finance: Aurora, Colorado (September 17, 2023):

Ha Ha CLCP.. Got your disgusting little Rick Brattin smear yesterday. Two minutes later I discover that you’re just rabid, toxic left wing democrats who worship at the alter of holy abortion, which tells all the folks in Rick’s district that he’s doing a great job defending life in Missouri! I wonder if his opponent stands as strong for life? I DOUBT IT! GODSPEED RICK BRATTIN!

31st Senate District, bigot, franking, General Assembly, mailing, missouri, Rick Brattin, right wingnut

Rep. Rick Brattin (r) [2018 file photo – Jerry Schmidt].

We received a mailing piece promoting Rick Brattin’s (r) special brand of bigotry, apparently a franking piece paid for by our tax dollars.

The badly shopped photo seems to indicate that the Missouri Senate chamber has cheap, kid side desks (it makes sense when you think about it), or Rick Brattin likes to spend his time sternly lecturing Missouri school children when they’re not present in their empty classrooms.

And, of course, the piece lists Rick Brattin’s (r) phobias and legislative priorities.

Fought to ban drag shows from being attended by children

Rick, if you don’t want your kids to watch a drag show, throw your television in the trash.

Passed legislation banning pornographic material from school libraries.

Smart move there, promoting book banning. Rick, if you don’t want your kids to read books just home school them under your supervision.

Passed legislation to prohibit gender reassignment surgery and puberty blockers for children.

Sigh. Rick, just leave these kids and their families alone.

Denny Hoskins (r).

Last night on social media:

Denny Hoskins

Despite the 90+ degree temperatures, these God loving patriots are standing up to protect kids from “family friendly” drag shows in Warrensburg. I stopped by to hand-deliver some water/Gatorade and personally thank each one of them for staying true to their conservative beliefs and fighting the good fight. Drag shows are not for innocent kids and I am glad to stand alongside these good folks who are trying to protect our children.

[….]

They didn’t have enough sense to bring their own water? Just asking.

By the way, where was your fellow letter writer Rick Brattin (r)?:

…Not only will I have your back, but I am willing to stand alongside you as you protect our community…

Just not in 90° temperatures and high humidity, apparently.

A people loving patriot across the street:

“Those who abide in Love abide in God”

…Running for something?

Interestingly, Denny Hoskins (r) worked the folks with the intolerant signs, walked across the street and shook the Warrensburg Police officers’ hands, but he didn’t bother to go into the venue to greet his constituents attending the Pride Festival.

Why, yes!:

Citizens For Hoskins – Active
MECID: C081024
PO Box 118
Warrensburg, MO 64093
[….]
Committee Type: Candidate
[….]
Election History
Election Outcome Political Office
8/6/2024 Primary Election Statewide Office
[….]

Some of the responses:

Standing up ??? They are protesting other citizens rights to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness?
Imposing their judgment for the judgment of the actual parents of the under 18 attending.
BTW no laws broken. Besides parents, mandatory child abuse and Law Enforcement present to observe. So again no laws were broken.

Your constituents were also inside the venue. Why didn’t you speak to us inside?

What is wrong with drag shows? They are not sexual. People are wearing costumes and acting for entertainment.

A big thank you to Denny Hoskins for showing your support and big thanks to everyone that braved the heat to try and keep the children of our community from being exposed to these highly inappropriate performances.

What is inappropriate about it?

I can’t believe there is anyone left that you need to convince of your Homophobia with a Facebook post. You are a disgrace to the office. Hate is nothing to be proud of. The majority of your constituents don’t agree with this and you know it. Your constituents were inside as well but you hate them. It’s disgusting how you flaunt and show off your hate. Zealots aren’t supposed to hold office.

Just enough expedient bluster to repeat unfounded accusations, but not enough moral compass and courage to walk a hundred feet further and through a door to see for himself.

Some (former) constituents are more equal than others, eh?
