Vicky: Where is your condemnation of those members of the House and Senate, members of your party, who, through their words and deeds, helped facilitate the death of Brian Sicknick and attempted to overthrow our government?
she was one of them
What hypocrisy! Your refusal to acknowledge election results played a supporting role in this tragedy. You have refused to impeach the man who caused the riot that led to the officer’s death. You should be ashamed.
Narrator: “She isn’t.”
HOW ABOUT APOLOGIZING FOR YOUR HELP CAUSING THE INSURRECTION THAT GOT HIM KILLED.
If you go, be sure to apologize for being part of the insurrection.
Honor him by convicting Trump and then resigning
ummmm you helped kill him
And we remember that you signed up to overthrow the results of the free and fair election thus giving oxygen to this group of domestic terrorists to take apart our democracy.
We won’t forget. You are culpable, look at his casket and know that you helped do this.
Let’s face it , Vickster.
The one and only reason you are tweeting this is because you got ratioed badly on your last tweet.
That officer is dead because of your actions.
These heroes died because you incessantly lied to your kooky constituents. Those thugs tried to finish the job YOU started trying to overthrow the election results.
#Shame
Please spare us the empty posturing.
Those heroes died because of an angry mob fired up by lies told by Trump and perpetuated by Hartzler.
Hartzler has yet to admit to to those lies or apologize so the notion that she has any plans to honor anyone is ghoulish.
Weren’t you part of the conspiracy to commit sedition group? His death is on your hands.
You were complicit in his death through your failure to accept the results of a free & fair election where Biden won overwhelmingly.
You fed hatred that resulted in our nation’s capitol building being overrun by terrorists.
Sticknick deserved better than you & so does America
Too bad you didn’t think about our Capital Officers before you supported terrorists who killed one and beat and maimed others.
How can you sleep at night knowing you participated in an insurrection that caused his death? Shame on you.
He sacrificed his life to protect Congress from the angry trump supporters. The people that believed lies about the election and you did NOTHING to dispute those lies. You let them grow and fester until these terrorists came to believe they could overthrow the government. You are…responsible for this officer’s death by being complicit. You chose not to protect democracy. I will never vote for a republican again after the insurrection that the GOP allowed to happen.
U.S. Senator Josh (R-Mo.) is filing a counter-complaint today against seven Senate Democrats who called for an ethics investigation into his objection to certifying Pennsylvania’s electoral count. The Democrats admitted in their complaint that Hawley’s electoral college objection was lawful. In a letter to the seven Democrat Senators, Senator Hawley called out the senators for their historic partisan abuse of the Senate ethics process and potential coordination with dark money groups.[….]
Governor Mike Parson @GovParsonMO
I want ALL Missourians to know that if you are sick, we will take care of you. 9:17 AM · Dec 8, 2020
Some of the responses:
What are YOU doing to take care of ALL Missourians? Have you implemented Medicaid expansion? Have you prevented rural hospitals from closing? Have you slowed down COVID transmission?
I’d much rather know that you will help prevent me from getting sick. You know… be preventative with masks instead of reactionary with ICU beds. Crazy talk, eh?
Nurses willl take care of you. This man won’t. Blame him when you can’t find a nurse to be at your bedside.
As my husband gets ready to go to work in the hospital today I want you to know that you are a disgrace to the office of Governor of Missouri. We are drowning out here and you claim to be saving us. Gtfoh.
Remember when you wouldn’t support expanding Medicaid? I’ll wait
Ummmmm….actually not so much.
How did you feel after touring Covid units at hospitals in Missouri? Oh wait, that hasn’t happened yet.
‘Republicans campaigned hard against [medicaid] expansion, with Parson among the most outspoken in opposition.’
Have a statewide mask mandate and watch those numbers go down. Look at Australia, NZ and Taiwan. They’re about back to normal. This is a Failure!
Japan has 20 times Missouri’s population, but has 50% less Covid deaths. They wear masks and their leaders don’t downplay the virus.
… but we won’t do anything to stop you from getting sick.
fixed it for you.
you’re welcome.
So far away from the reality of normal people, he thinks you can just get medical care without coverage, and doesn’t understand what “medical bankruptcy” is. Prevention, not an option in his world, either.
You heard it here people, just send your medical bills to Gov. Parson. He’s going to take care of it. /s
With all due respect, this is a misleading tweet. We need staff to run those vents and take care of those beds. I work for a busy Level 1 Trauma Center and personally haven’t accepted an ICU patient in weeks. Missourians are going to Iowa, Illinois, South Dakota, etc for care.
“We’ll take care of you”
But only once we actively make ensure that every citizen of Missouri contracts COVID by refusing to do any preventative measures in order to serve our Wall Street donors and sociopathic political ideology.
Can you please also focus on PREVENTING us from getting sick? It is no comfort that help only starts if I get covid. I would prefer to be in a place that prioritizes prevention over emergency medical care.
When is Medicaid expansion going into effect?
A lot of us lost a job this year and find ourselves in the hole where we can’t get Medicaid AND we can’t get any subsidies on the marketplace to afford insurance, so we’re totally screwed.
.. go on… ? Explain how you are actually doing this. Rural & urban areas are overwhelmed this week. Use that CARES money to help suffering people.
Covid is a complete disaster for the rural Midwest and was largely due to your political pandering and inaction. This message is a false promise and we still have no actionable strategies or plans in place. What should we do? Really, make a call.
What if instead you, I don’t know, implemented a mandate that would, just maybe, keep more people safe….so you didn’t HAVE to take care of us. Because what you are saying is not what the healthcare professionals are saying.
That’s a lie. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure. Remember that oldie but goodie, Mike? This statement is some of your worst lip service yet! MANDATE MASKS like the healthcare workers of this state have been begging you to.
It’s almost as if we’ve mismanaged our way into Medicare for All.
But, as the Post Dispatch reports you continue , and only God knows why, to ignore state wide mitigation efforts, thereby contributing to the continuing spread of Covid in Missouri. This is unbelievable incompetence and dereliction of duty Sir.
Sadly, Missouri elected the Governor it deserves.
Except the seniors who are being held as prisoners and away from their family because of your negligence and incompetence. You will be older one day Governor but as a Christian I will not want the same to be done to you for what you have allowed to be done to them.
Here’s a CRAZY idea, do more to KEEP PEOPLE FROM GETTING SICK with a mask mandate. And I wonder how many people will get sick from your Governor’s Mansion open house? It’s great that you open it to the people of Missouri at Christmas but NOT DURING A PANDEMIC IN A RED COUNTY!
How about putting a plan in place so that people aren’t as likely to get sick and have to go to the hospital. Maybe be proactive instead of reactive when dealing with a deadly pandemic.
How about covering us before we get sick?
That’s great, but when are you going to address the lack of rural hospitals or your lack of action throughout most of the pandemic or even not implementing Medicaid expansion? Words are meaningless without action, Mr. Governor.
Notice he doesn’t reassure that we have enough properly trained critical care physicians, nurses and respiratory therapists.
So you’re going to be volunteering next to nurses in COVID wards to make sure everyone is taken care of?
Oh god, I think I’d rather take my chances w understaffed, overworked nurses than gov heehaw. Thanks for the nightmares
Is that why you fought Medicaid expansion? Here’s a novel idea, why don’t you do something that might PREVENT us from getting sick? LIKE A MASK MANDATE
You kicked thousands of kids off Medicaid.
Oh, that’s a relief. What’s the address of the governor’s mansion for forwarding of ginormous medical bills?
You covering medical expenses too?
Given the republican parties response to Covid19 “take care of you” sounds like a threat.
This tweet is like me telling my kids its OK to play with broken glass because we’ve got plenty of bandaids.
Governor, thank you for not giving in to the pearl clutchers and forcing face diapers on us.
Science!
So where do I send my medical bills?🖒
Fact check: this is false.
You need a better stand up routine.
Take care of Missourians how? Free body bag?
By closing rural hospitals?
All?! That sounds pretty… universal.
Is this a joke? Missouri’s handling of COVID has been an embarrassing disaster.
I mean, YOU aren’t taking care of anyone
Making this post takes nerve I’ve never seen before.
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — An official at the United States Postal Service confirmed Friday that four mail-processing machines have been removed at its Kansas City, Missouri, facility.
The removal of machines comes as part of changes made by Postmaster General Louis DeJoy, according to a report from CNN.
The USPS official said that in addition to the four machines removed in Kansas City, the USPS had removed two machines in Springfield and one in Wichita “for efficiency and lower mail volume.”
[….]
“We are seeing the destruction of the postal service,” U.S. Rep Emanuel Cleaver II, a Missouri Democrat who represents KCMO, said. “I don’t think there are any questions about it.”
[….]
The St. Louis Post Dispatch reported Friday that Missouri Secretary of State Jay Ashcroft was notified in late July that the USPS may not be able to return all mail-in ballots to election authorities by the Nov. 3 election.
That delay could invalidate some ballots for the general election, when the country will elect a president and Missouri will elect a governor, among other races.
[….]
That was then, this is now.
A campaign piece, from Uniting Missouri, the PAC propping up Governor Mike Parson (r), arrived in our mail yesterday:
“Officials say you should return your mail or absentee ballot now to ensure it is received and counted in time.”
No shit, Sherlock. Who’s responsible for this state of affairs?
Wait a minute. In Donald Trump’s (r) world aren’t mail-in ballots rife with fraud?
This right wingnut mail piece is just oozing cognitive dissonance and gaslighting. Not that their target audience would notice.
“…the classic “legal” definition of chutzpah…a person who kills his parents and pleads for the court’s mercy on the ground of being an orphan…”
Yesterday:
Senator Roy Blunt @RoyBlunt
I share @realDonaldTrump’s frustration with Senate Democrats’ needless delays in confirming nominees to critical positions. There is no reason we can’t deal with these nominations faster and get these well-qualified individuals in place sooner.
[….] 4:58 PM · May 19, 2020
You share a lot more than that with Donald Trump (r), senator.
Rep. Jason Smith @RepJasonSmith
For our community, access to care isn’t just a talking point – it’s a matter of life or death. Last week, I continued my fight for rural healthcare and met with Director Carroll of the @ONDCP and @GovParsonMO for a roundtable in Cape Girardeau.
[….] 9:49 AM · Feb 24, 2020
Hypocrisy, they think it’s a good look.
The replies, as always, are priceless:
You have devoted your entire career, both in the Missouri General Assembly and in the Congress, to blocking healthcare for working people in your District. Besides the health effects, your actions have resulted in closed hospitals in your District.
you’ve been active in preventing access.
You want to protect folks with pre-existing conditions — but at a higher price for them. Currently the ACA which you oppose makes it illegal to consider pre-existing conditions in pricing. So you want to repeal the ACA to change that? Why? Keep your filthy hands off the ACA.
How about helping Missouri expand Medicaid to save rural hospitals. It was Gingrich’s and Heritage’s plan. Time to stop being stupid because of Obama. He’s done. You can try thinking with you own brain now. 36 states accept our federal expanded Medicaid dollars. And Gov. Pence.
You voted to kill my insurance.
#shuttheFupyouliar
Yes Jason, it can be life or death, but your voting record tells a different story than this talking point.
Oh please. You voted to take away healthcare from Missourians
Um… @RepJasonSmith voted against ACA – the exact opposite of which you are telling people today. What’s up with that?
Medicaid expansion would automatically cover 200,000 more Missouri residents and save us $100 million! The feds cover 90% of the cost. [….]
At this point you’re just punking us.
Getting scared, bro? Remember when you celebrated voting to repeal the ACA with no replacement? Yeah, I do. Y’all brought beer in to celebrate. You’ve been fighting to TAKE AWAY healthcare, you lying PoS.
…In a December 31, 2019, letter (Appendix I, page 435) in response to seeing a draft copy of this report, the AGO formally objected to the inclusion of interview transcripts in this report, and stated the inclusion of these transcripts would be a disclosure of audit working papers, and therefore, a felony violation of Chapter 29, RSMo. The SAO disagrees with this conclusion. Objections to the inclusion of interview transcripts and audit communications citing Chapter 29, RSMo, are without merit. The confidentiality provisions of Chapter 29 are intended to protect the SAO’s working papers from public disclosure. The interpretation that those confidentiality provisions are intended to keep the SAO from disclosing information obtained during the course of the audit is at odds with Chapter 29, RSMo, and Yellow Book requirements, which both require a report of information obtained during an audit be made public. In addition, the statement that the inclusion of working papers as appendices to a public report is unprecedented is not accurate. Including information obtained during an audit as appendices is very common and not unique to this administration. Appendices have been part of audit reports issued by the SAO for decades…
This evening Josh Hawley (r) again took to Twitter:
Josh Hawley @HawleyMO
Don’t think @nicolergalloway attacks on me & other Republicans are 100% political? Now she’s fundraising off of audits! Is it too much to ask that she just do her job – and quit using her office to campaign? #mogov #moleg
[….] 4:46 PM · Feb 9, 2020
Let’s see: projection, chutzpah, entitlement, lack of self awareness, ladder climbing… That’s a lot to pack into one Tweet.
Of course, there is much hilarity in the responses:
I guess you shouldn’t have given her the ammo now, shouldn’t you? The only one you have to blame is yourself. Stand up and take it like a man.
Projecting. Like Trump.
One word, projection!
These ppl weaponize everything against Republicans..the IRS, the FBI, the FISA Courts. They are truly totalitarian
What a friend they have in Putin.
“Россия” (Russia) – a variant of the Russian presidential flag.
Didn’t you do THE SAME DAMN THING??…Oh wait yes you did and her audit showed it
You’re the worst, Josh
She must be getting close to the target to have so many tweets from you. Also don’t use any of your ‘achievements’ when you attempt to run for office again.
Golden coming from you #senatorflatbed
The Ivy League vision of a flatbed truck.
You didn’t do your job…..you swore to uphold the Constitution and yet you voted to acquit the most corrupt, immoral President in the history of the US.
We will not forget.
You used your office and staff to campaign. Get off your high horse, little Josh. It’s tiring.
‘do her job and quit using her office to campaign’???? That is rich coming from you.
Why Senator!
You seem worried.
#iStandByFBI
Why don’t you worry about serving the people of the state you really don’t represent well?
You have lost all of your credibility and any respect that I may have had for you. It sounds like it isn’t just me either.
You did
VP of trump water carriers. Speaking of doing your job, did you forget your office? When are you gonna come back and face your constituents? You’re a joke.
Lol, you outsourced the AG job while you campaigned for Senate! You are perfect for Trumpian times, a shameless liar and hypocrite. You still don’t want us to have healthcare, even as you lied about it. Weasel.
No one want to listen to your BS anymore. We have no respect for you. We would actually prefer you resign.
You seem like the type that has gotten into a heated argument over FaceTime, only to find out your selfie cam was on. You’re a hypocrite. Resign.
You must be kidding. You never really did your job in MO. Went to the gym and then started campaigning for senate. At least she can point to actual completed tasks
Ouch. That one left a mark.
Dude..you are a political hack extraordinaire. Very recently out took an oath to God and trashed it. You lustily cheered the medaling of a racist and said nothing when a war hero was jackbooted out of the White House! I think the natives call this “speaking with a forked tongue”.
Let’s see… how did Josh get elected Senator? He fundraised off his BS record as AG.
You belong with Trump. You’re both full of shit.
Lol you have to be kidding….what the heck did you do even after you said you weren’t interested in a senatorial position you are such a liar wow
From an audit of former Attorney General Josh Hawley (r), released yesterday by State Auditor Nicole Galloway’s (D) Office:
…In a December 31, 2019, letter (Appendix I, page 435) in response to seeing a draft copy of this report, the AGO formally objected to the inclusion of interview transcripts in this report, and stated the inclusion of these transcripts would be a disclosure of audit working papers, and therefore, a felony violation of Chapter 29, RSMo.

Yesterday evening, from Josh Hawley (r):
Josh Hawley @HawleyMO
When you have to break the law to try to score political points, you know you’re desperate. Given the evidence of rampant political manipulation in her office, Galloway should recuse herself from all audits if she’s going to keep running for Governor #mogov #moleg
[….] 5:08 PM · Feb 6, 2020
Says the ladder climber.
“Evidence”? Since when has evidence been something Josh Hawley (r) cared about?
“The most dangerous place to stand in Washington D.C. is any place between Senator Josh Hawley and a live microphone” – Charles P. Pierce
As always, there was much hilarity in the responses:
Yeah Josh, speaking of breaking the law, where do you come down on Trump stealing money from his foundation, admitting guilt in a court of law, and being fined $2,000,000? Is that ok with you? If so, WTF did they teach you in law school?
Chutzpah.
Oh, lookit. Newly made man in the Trump Crime Syndicate has thoughts about ethics. You can take your thoughts about what Auditor Galloway should or shouldn’t do and stuff them. Republicans are just crazy, thinking that anyone believes anything they say anymore.
Please! You looked the other way at the rule of law when you acquitted your dear leader refused to allow evidence into the trial. Now you invoke it for your own political purposes. All I can say is that this isn’t surprising. You’re a hypocrite & we’re paying attention.
“When you have to break the law to try to score political points, you know you’re desperate” pretty much summarizes you and the rest of the GOP under Trump.
Shall we start calling you Josh the Desperate? Desperate Hawley?
Works for us.
I think you have already burned all your “rule of law” capital on the president’s get out of jail free card.
IOKIYAR*
* it’s okay if you’re a republican
Your complete lack of self awareness in the phrasing of this tweet is absolutely astounding!
It’s amazing, He does know the Head Grifter.
Dem corruption?? Freaking hilarious!
Remind me again How many Dem associates pled guilty or are serving/ have served/ will serve prison time??
Meanwhile at least 6 Trump associates have/will.
But please tell us all about the Dem corruption!
Lol. Nope, you can never allege political wrongdoing of another after letting Trump off.
isn’t that what you’ve been doing for the last 3 years? what a buffoon
No wonder you voted to acquit tRump. You’re made in the same mold as he is.
When I read the first sentence of your tweet, Senator Thirsty, I thought somehow a conscience has emerged and you regretted your vote for a corrupt acquittal of Trump.
I see it’s just leftover flyover-state corruption baggage that isn’t resolved.
Carry on.
Typical Republican modus operandi. Break the law, get caught, claim partisanship!
“When you have to break the law to try to score political points, you know you’re desperate.”
That’s the truest thing you’ve ever said about Donald Trump.
Too much transparency for you?
So your buddy @GovParsonMO is nervous about the support Ms. Galloway is generating among voters here in MO?
Says the Sycophant Senator whose took dark money and literally had his staff using secret messaging while he “investigated” Greitens for doing the same.
You may be guilty……..so don’t LIE
Looking at cover ups on national level is embolding you to pursue same on state level. You’re as corrupt as your idol.
For some reason, Trump and get away with lying to people. I suggest you not try it. That’s actually friendly advice.
You’re an embarrassment to our state. We deserve better leaders.
*When I had to break the law to score a political position, you know I’m desperate.
There, I fixed it for you.
#showmeethics
You swore under oath that you would listen impartially to the house managers and yet you didn’t, so there’s that.
There’s that.
“The stew of high intellect and low principle is ghastly. “ Love that quote about you, so fitting.
You voted to acquit a criminal president despite overwhelming evidence to the contrary, you are not allowed to pretend to have integrity, morals, honor or a backbone.
You voted for the presidency having absolute immunity.
Why did you vote for a King?
Seriously! You just voted to acquit a lawless president and you’re calling for Galloway to recuse herself. You covered for Greiten and his sleezy blackmail as you were climbing the ladder to your next position. I feel that you’re the desperate one, clutching on to Trump. #Corrupt
“When you have to break the laws to score political points, you know your desperate.”
Cool admission here, you corrupt hack.
Dude…you just voted to acquit President Trump for irrefutable facts that he attempted to coerce/bribe an ally by withholding military aid unless there was an announcement of an investigation. You are an embarrassment to our state, and I am optimistic you will end up I prison.
We don’t live in a just world.
You’d know a lot about selling your soul to score political points.
Stop telling us what Galloway’s audit says. Your version is unrecognizable. And we can read it for ourselves. We know what it says.
Bad faith Senator says what?
And on and on…
