Yesterday, Eric Schmitt (r) proceeded to do so:

Eric Schmitt @Eric_Schmitt
The Covid vaccine mandates were stupid.

The Biden Administration fired over 8000 military men and women over it.

Today Secretary Austin admitted he’s doing nothing to get these well trained men and woman back.

This is nuts.
[….]
5:02 PM · Mar 28, 2023

Yes, you are, Eric (r). Stupid and nuts.

Some of the responses:

These people take literally dozens of vaccines in the military – and it was just this one they refused to take – for political reasons.

If a soldier refuses a life-saving vaccine, will he refuse to save a brother in arms? They weren’t fired. They QUIT. I don’t want them back.

This one wasn’t a vaccine, it was an experimental drug that effects your very DNA that was illegally pushed on a captive audience.

They exist, apparently.

It’s what happens when you have an illegitimate regime full of diversity hires

That would be classified as a particularly obvious dog whistle.

For starters dbag, it is essential that military personnel have the ability to follow orders and recognize the chain of command.

The GOP wud weaken our military command by giving every soldier a choice of which rules and commands to obey. Military cannot work that way. Talk abt a Banana Republic. Can you imagine the day when every “who ha” in the U.S. has assault weapons & answers to a militia ldr, perhaps w/ a swastika on his uniform?

Maybe they were extra, you know like the Twitter employees you laughed about.

They were in the military and refused to follow an order. Of course they were fired. They have shown they will not follow orders.

The military is about following orders, they were fired for not following orders. It’s pretty cut and dry.

no, they were fired for refusing to obey a lawful order.

bye, Felicia

They were ordered to get the vaccine. They didn’t follow the order so they deserve what they got. If you had served perhaps you’d understand what following lawful orders means. Instead you’re engaging in political theater to divide people. You’re a disgrace.

Eric, you are still stuck on Covid mandates?? You need to move on to something else that will actually help people, like banning assault type weapons, red flag laws, mandatory background checks for gun purchases. Any actual ideas for HELPING people, not just complaining!!

Your act is getting old

They made the choice to not have one vaccine. Their choice.
I’m fine if they don’t return. Follow guidelines or find a new career. The rest of us operate this way. Pretty simple.

If they cannot follow direct orders in peacetime what happens on the battlefield? They should not be in our military.

Look at Eric grandstanding!

It’s in his nature.

What are you doing about guns?

Don’t hold your breath.

Lost ball in high weeds. [….]

Heh.

You should follow your logic and get rid of TB, malaria, and other vaccines.

Diversity Hire Austin is a disgrace

That would be classified as a particularly obvious dog whistle.

Why would we want them back? It would deteriorate troop cohesion and make us less safe.

The vaccines saved lives, stay in your lane

They failed to comply with a lawful order.

We also know that to have a safe and well prepared military, they receive many vaccines to keep them safe in other parts of the world. COVID vaccines did the same.

Well, they didn’t follow the rules, so…

How many vaccines are the military required to have or get before enlisting @Eric_Schmitt?

What other vaccines should members of the military not take? Get real.

I was in the military , the thought of not taking a vaccine was & is asinine

It’s one of freaking how many shots they got to get. Waaaah waaaah waaaah

How many other military vaccine requirements can be ignored?

Military preparedness is vital to our national security. Our troops receive a whole battery of vaccines to maintain their health and fitness. That’s their duty. If a vocal few can’t take orders then they shouldn’t have volunteered for service.

You don’t fire the military you ridiculous clown. Learn something about the UCMJ genius.

The military mandates dozens of vaccines for personal. Why did they not refuse those vaccines?

What’s nuts is being beholden to right-wing fantasy. We can’t have insubordination in our military.

From the moment that they decide to join the military, they know that they are required to take all available vaccines. They were given a direct order and they defied that order, and they were relieved of duty.

The military already has a ton of other required vaccines. Why should we give a shit about this

The Covid mandates for the military were not stupid. The military has many vaccines requirements. Covid killed millions, and made people sick. The military made the right call. Eric Schmitt you are way out of your league on the medical issue. Sit down and shut up.

My immunization record in the military was three pages long; you obey orders or GTFO. So f$&@ off POS #MAGATerrorisTraitoRacist

Fascist pig, insurrectionist, Josh Hawley, right wingnut, seditionist, U.S. Senate, Virginia

Josh Hawley (r) [2016 file photo].

This morning:

[image cropped]

Josh Hawley @HawleyMO
THIS is the greatest challenge our nation faces – the loss of our common culture & the principles & beliefs that bind us together
[….]
9:16 AM · Mar 27, 2023

Have you ever bothered to read the Constitution, Josh (r)?

Some of the responses:

Trump is the manifestation of everything ugly in America. Racism. Sexism. Unfettered capitalism. Domestic terrorism. Repression. He is a cultivated and self-created weapon of entrenched corrupt power that feeds the rich and foils the true American promise of a better life for all

You have a news & entertainment media and an entire political party (Democrats) dividing the people 24/7, calling you racist, telling you it’s bad to be patriotic and closing churches, what do you expect? Sinister forces are trying to and succeeding at destroying America.

If people are calling you racist it’s probably because you’re racist. Who is closing churches? I mean they should be closing churches but I haven’t heard of any closing. The sinister force trying to destroy America just had a rally in Waco Texas.

We’re a land of diversity. Did you learn nothing in school?

No. This has been another edition of Short Answers to Simple Questions.

The peaceful transfer of power used to bind us together.
But you helped take care of that, didn’t you?

[Cheers on insurrectionists] Gosh whatever happened to a common sense of patriotism geez

ok insurrectionist

And now, like a grown up, assimilate the information and utilize it. Why do you think this is like this? What role does your seditious behavior play in it?

Look inward Josh. These items should never have been politicized.

Fueled by people like you and the former president—dividers all.

Keep your religious beliefs to yourself.

America is not interested!!!

Please, dude. Your supporters’ contributions to culture at this point are book banning and beating up drag queens.

What are these common cultures, principles and beliefs you speak of?

If you truly believed this you would no longer seek to divide. To other and dehumanize everyone who doesn’t looks act or think like you. But that’s all Rs do. It’s all they have. They no longer care to govern. Instead they legislate away the rights of anyone they don’t agree with

I do not share anything with the likes of you, pencil. You are a traitor to your oath. I will never forget that and nobody else should. If people stay away from religion, it’s because of phony Christians who think they’re on a mission to hate others not like themselves.

Keep allowing illegals to flood the border, and it’s only going to get worse!

No human being is illegal.

“No human is illegal”

Are these your white power concerns? You’re living in the past and nobody cares about your white power movement.

Of course it’s concerning, who would sign on to your definition of patriotism you traitor?

This is YOUR culture, not mine. Stop trying to turn this country into a whites only christofascist regime.

“Common culture” is rich coming from a Missouri Senator who doesn’t actually live in Missouri. How is the wealthy northern Virginia culture treating you?

This graphic gives me hope. While it does the opposite for you.

Josh tried to overthrow the government of the United States and now he’s worried about patriotism. I mean you can’t make this stuff up. [….]

This very same argument culture is changing, we’re losing our culture, been used many times in American history.

during emancipation.

during suffrage.

during the civil rights movement.

They claimed they were losing their culture back then as well

Because some of us don’t appreciate domestic terrorism. Remember #january6th.

Some of us don’t want to have kids. And some of us don’t support having our rights taken away in the name of some made up entity.

No one wants your patriotism if it means ignoring our problems.
No one wants your religion if it means we don’t help people.
No one wants childbearing if you’re going to let us die if things go wrong.
No one wants a community with bigots.
Wages aren’t enough to survive.

Yeah, it’s really awful that a country that was founded on democracy would have people who object to others controlling their reproductive organs, what they read, what they wear, who they love, and putting certain people above the rule of law.

Where do insurrections go on the graph, Josh? And obstruction of justice? And”death and destruction “?

Wait, what?

Mark Alford @RepMarkAlford
If you’re not safe, then you’re not free.

That means securing our southern border and cleaning up our streets.
12:41 PM · Mar 26, 2023

Some of the responses:

How can I feel safe when the NRA writes our gun laws? Children are allowed open carry. Educators and librarians are threatened by hired thugs who hide behind parental rights. Nothing or no one is safe when republicans are in control.

What’s your plan to secure the border? Will you vote for increased funding?

Also, you need to secure money to updgrade Missouri Highway 7 from 24 Highway to Harrisonville. Let’s see if you can get some Federal funding to clean up 7 Highway!

At least some politics is local.

When will you care about keeping children safe from mass shootings in our schools ?

Donald J Trump stated Mitch McConnell is the greatest threat to National Security in America. Donald J Trump is never wrong.

When will the GOP, Fox News, Newsmax and OANN demand Mitch McConnell resign due to being the greatest threat to National Security in America?

Heh.

Clay Higgins, libraries, Louisiana, right wingnut

* Why, yes, there is!

Last week from a right wingnut republican member of Congress from the state of Louisiana:

Rep. Clay Higgins @RepClayHiggins
Over time, American communities will build beautiful, church owned public-access libraries. I’m going to help these churches get funding. We will change the whole public library paradigm.

The libraries regular Americans recall are gone. They’ve become liberal grooming centers.
12:53 PM · Mar 23, 2023

Clay Higgins (r) does not represent Missouri. I had to check, though. Heh.

Some of the responses:

Eat a roadkill armadillo, Clay.
When’s the last time you visited a library or read a book, ya doof?

Definitely never visited a public library.

have you considered seeing a therapist

Congrats man, you invented the dark ages

Heh. Someone just won the internets today.

What would you define as a “regular American?”

Dog whistle.

When was the last time you went to a library, or even read a book?

I love public and college libraries.
Have experienced zero grooming.
Stuffed my head full of facts & entertainment.
Ended up smarter than you.
(Grooming centers my ass. Went a couple days ago, & the librarian gave me a dirty look because my returned books had raindrops on them.)

Maybe you should’ve spent more time in libraries.
Might’ve ended up less dumb.
[….]

Rep. Higgins, I’m not sure “America but the Taliban are in charge” is quite the home run policy regime you seem to think it is.

“If a nation expects to be ignorant and free in a state of civilization, it expects what never was and never will be. An informed citizenry is at the heart of a dynamic democracy.” — Thomas Jefferson.

Awesome, my church, The Church Of Beezlebub at Beaver Lick , would like to be one of the first. Should I call your office Monday to discuss how we can get this going or do you prefer another way?

“Grooming center”… like a barbershop? [….] #HereForTheRatio

What tripe.
I am a retired school and public librarian. How dare you say defamatory and patently false things about my life’s work.
If you want a Christian library, go for it, but to say that we are ‘groomers’ because we don’t subscribe to YOUR religious viewpoint is outrageous.

If you don’t believe in separation of church and state then you clearly don’t believe in the Bill of rights, meaning you don’t believe in what this country stands for or what it was built on. Leave government.

We are not a christo fascist nation. Separation of church and state, bro — also, churches need to pay taxes. Thanks for playing.

Church controlled libraries. Now they wanna monitor what citizens can and cannot read. And tell me again how the Republican Party stands for freedom?

Tell me you haven’t been to a library without telling me you haven’t been to a library

HEY! This is not a police church state. I do not want religious zealots saying what is ok to read. What you find unacceptable, I call art. Some thing that a person poured their time and ideas into. I DO NOT WANT YOU BE A PART OF YOUR CHURCH STATE!

You are everything that’s wrong with this country.

The people complaining the most about libraries don’t actually read books.

which church will be the correct one? ?

The last library I went into was full of books that you could check out, and it was open to the public, and there was 0 grooming going on, there was however, a lot of people… wait for it… reading [….]

Thanks for being honest about your plan to steal federal funds for Christians, I guess

So you want to give churches my tax dollars to build public libraries?

Why wouldn’t we cut out the middle man and build public libraries ourselves?

Thanks for your steadfast work and your steadfast love of The Lord! We have a chance with men like you willing to step into the gap.

Fewer than 50% of Louisiana students read at grade level. Maybe focus on that.

That’s considered a feature, not a bug.

You can build all the private Christofascist grooming book deposits you want…it will never happen with public funds because we have a constitution. Or, you could all move to an island and start your own Christian theocracy. We’d help you all pack.

WTF are you talking about? Churches are free to have their own libraries, most do. Federal funding for that is a big NO NO. We like our public libraries just the way they are.

Publicly funded libraries have always been a point of pride for America. It’s insanity to suggest that this should be abolished and replaced with church libraries. Unpatriotic.

Which churches are to get funding?

Just purely as a nonsensical and useless hypothetical for you to consider when asked.

Just churches.

Shouldn’t you consider maybe reading a book first?

Baby steps. Chunk it out.

And then we’ll put these private libraries in castles with moats, and we’ll have wealthy people, we’ll call them “lords” who’ll oversee them and have the uneducated masses, “serfs” you might call them, work the land. It will be just like the good old days. [….]

Gated communities would work, too.

It’s almost as if libraries are places of learning, and their open-minded and accessible values threaten those who would thrive in a society that increases their privilege…

I’d much rather see you invest in a Time Machine so you can go back to the Middle Ages you long for.

How many books are you going to ban? How much art?

Most of it.

“Church-owned library” would be the most boring place ever, though. You’d limit the selections so tightly that it wouldn’t be worth visiting. You’d populate it with anti-history and anti-science horsepucky. No, thank you.

Christofascist flex, but ok.

This is the most offensive and vapid tweet I have seen in a long time. Nobody cares about your idea of a library. We want religion out of politics and libraries where anyone is welcomed! Go away!

No we will not. Churches have and will continue to have private libraries but they will not replace our public libraries ever.
Those I know about have almost exclusively religious texts, usually with an emphasis on those significant to beliefs.

Sounds like you want to restrict information.

Nothing like a religious institution moderating knowledge

You should pick up a book sometime and read about what happens when churches control the books.

Please, as if you even know what a library is.

So will these libraries of your fantasy adequately represent the non-Christians in our nation or are they fresh out of luck?

That’s considered a feature, not a bug.

Keep your church out of my books!

What a putz.

Josh Hawley (r) [2016 file photo].

This morning:

Josh Hawley @HawleyMO
Three-quarters of NATO members aren’t meeting their basic commitments—which are already too low—but they want the U.S. to spend more on Ukraine. No.
[….]
8:51 AM · Mar 22, 2023

Some of the responses:

Sit down, traitor.

Putin is a tyrant. One who meddles in elections around the world and wants to expand his control by invading other nations. If he is not stopped, Ukraine will be the first, not the last.

Now is not the time to quibble over budget commitments from other NATO allies.

ok insurrectionist

Pardon, Traitor?

Your a good Senator.

Consider the source.

You do realize that Ukraine is not part of NATO?

Ummmmm yes. The lousy Trump Trash NATO rhetoric.

Sounds like Vlad is sending his assets new talking points to distract.

“Россия” (Russia) – a variant of the Russian presidential flag.

I’d say 50% of your time is spent trying to look like you’re doing your job. And the other 50% lying about it.

Adopting Chamberlain’s policy of appeasing Hitler fits your persona.

Congress must expose who has dual citizenship with Israel immediately

Josh Hawley’s (r) base, apparently.

So now you’re doing Putin’s bidding? The things you won’t do for a little bit of attention. Loser.

Why do you hate #Democracy ?

Any politician lobbying against NATO is in the pocket of Putin. It’s that simple.

We all know you are a traitor to democracy and a Putin apologist.

Pushing Putin’s propaganda again Josh ??

What Is ‘A Fundamental Misunderstanding of How NATO Monetary Commitments Work?’ I’ll take “Things the Fucking Russians Want US Senators to Say” for $800, LeVar

Russian Asset says…

Where do I mail the rubles, Comrade?

It’s what’s expected from the greatest nation on the planet. The rest of us don’t run away.

This is a totally irrelevant arguments to threats to world safety. You’re unfit to serve a hamburger let alone this great nation. Resign, traitor.

stfu trump fluffer.

So you are ok with mass abduction of children, bombing of civilian housing and infrastructure, and invasion of a sovereign state for no reason. Cool cool

Alvin Bragg would dig up old parking tickets if it means Trump can’t run for President again.
[….]
3:55 PM · Mar 21, 2023

Some of the responses:

Imaging carry water for a lifelong grifting con man. You should be embarrassed.

The latter would require a modicum of self-awareness.

Technically there’s nothing stopping Trump from running for president from prison, so you’ve got that going for you!

But would he dig up old porn star payoff reimbursement checks, that’s the question.
[….]

Bless your heart 😂

Can’t wait for your hot take when Trump gets indicted for election interference in Georgia. Is that a parking ticket too?

Americans want people in congress who don’t beg for pardons!
[….]

There is a difference between what we want and what we Gaetz.

Why would the party of rule of law and checks and balances want this man to run/be president? The hypocrisy and corruption run deep! Justice is coming:) which should be what you want.. only it’s not locking her up…

So what’s your point?

Mark wouldn’t know that.

Trump parked something else –

Heh. We see what you did there.

Trump probably doesn’t even know how to drive.

My guess is that he has had a driver his entire life just like he does now.

All while you guys complain about the “elites”.

So, what’s the problem?

What kind of lawmaker doesn’t care about breaking the law? A Republican.

Asked. And answered.

Does Trump drive? Bet not

He shoulda paid the parking tickets and not Stormy Daniels

Well that didn’t take long. You went from news anchor to tRump’s colon cleaner in record time. Not surprising though…

Trump can run for President from prison if he wants to. Stop talking out of your hat.

If he broke the law, he must be held accountable like the rest of us.

Anyone saying otherwise is anti American.

Has he tried not committing any crimes?

A crook is a crook.

Hmm, parking tickets or insurrection? I guess six of one, half dozen of the other

Shame on you. You know damn well that Bragg is in the right. You don’t get to use your campaign money to pay off porn stars. And if you do, then you don’t try to claim the same money off of your taxes. No one is above the law.

If he broke the law, he should be held accountable, no?

Thankfully, 45 has committed enough felonies that Bragg doesn’t have to worry about parking tickets.

As a resident of Lee’s Summit who has spent many years watching you on our local news, I’m thoroughly disgusted with your statement. No one is above the law, even a former President.

Reminds me of the bible passages where the crowd is demanding Pontius Pilate to crucify Jesus.

Oh, really?

Not paying them is still illegal. Are you saying misdemeanors don’t matter at all and should not be followed? Can I use your statement as my defense for not paying old parking tickets?

People get bench warrants all the time for unpaid tickets. Are you saying that they should stop that practice? If so, don’t ever issue parking tickets ever again. But why stop there? Just eliminate all laws that way Trump can never be found guilty of anything.

You’re really that silly? [….]

Mark Alford would say anything to kiss Trumps orange ass.

We definitely want him prosecuted for sedition and treason, you weasel.

Have you been born that stupid or did you work hard for it?

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

This morning, from Eric Schmitt (r):

Eric Schmitt @Eric_Schmitt
There is simply no room in our justice system for political prosecutions in search of crimes.
8:26 AM · Mar 21, 2023

Irony impaired.

Some of the responses:

I’m sorry, I can’t understand you. I was too distracted by the massive plank in your eye.

You should go tend to that.

There is simply no room in the Senate for apologists of the criminally indicted.

Anti-American extremist Eric Schmitt hits his corrupt successor @AGAndrewBailey with a broadside.

Oh goodness Eric, we all heard and saw his crimes. We’re you not listening?

You mean like you suing multiple MO public school districts over masking orders, costing them thousands to defend and then dropping the cases but not suing 1 private school for same. Sidebar his kids in private school all masked up. You mean that kind of political persecution

Yep. illegalmandates@ago.mo.gov – RSMo § 610 – Missouri Sunshine Law – email submissions – part 8 (January 13, 2022)

Eric, the fact that you are a sitting US Senator is in fact criminal.

Yet we still have you.

You mean like you investigating #Missouri schools for no reason and costing #Missouri taxpayers thousands of $$?

Would you share with us your reaction to the chants of “Lock her up” in 2016?

Hillary Clinton (D )[2016 file photo].

Hillary (D) would like a word.

Lock him up!

Lock him up!

Lock him up!

Lock him up!

Lock him up!

Lock him up!

Lock him up!

Lock him up!

I agree. As soon as it starts happening I’ll oppose it. For now, paying off a porn star and lying about it to advance your political career SHOULd be an end to your Republican power. But no more. Character doesn’t matter. Integrity means nothing. Power is the only currency.

you did it! Making it a crime for a woman to get an abortion is a political prosecution. Suing school districts who want to keep kids healthy is political prosecution. You slimy hypocrite!

Explain this to me: Mueller didn’t indict him because DOJ says no for a sitting President. Second Impeachment and GOPers acquit because he was out of office. Now he’s about to be charged with a crime but that shouldn’t happen because he’s a FORMER President.

IOKIYAR*

*it’s okay if you’re a republican

No need to search. The crimes are in plain view. Once again, you are on the wrong side of history.

How many lawsuits as attorney general did you file then ultimately drop just to get name recognition

Hmmmm … Tell me more about your time as Missouri AG.

Shhhh.

You sir are a hypocrite of the highest order.

How do you say this kinda stuff with a straight face? Also, how do you sleep at night?

And yet you made it a habit to file frivolous lawsuits wasting Missouri taxpayers dollars simply to advance your own political career. Hypocrite, unethical, and without any integrity.

And there is no room for thinking that politicians are above the law.

You are a joke. #LockHimUp

You are an embarrassment. Try being an actual senator.

You’ve got it wrong. Criminals get prosecuted regardless of their connection to politics, just as the founding fathers intended. YOU creating a false narrative abt crim investigations involving a former president is the politicization of the rule of law and abuse of your office.

Such as what?

Sorry, no one is above the law.

Oh, Eric, here in Missouri we still remember all the times you filed lawsuits over GOP political grievances.

You need to stay out of this.

You are a disgrace

No one is above the law, not even you.

Reference YOUR position as RAGA treasurer- robocalls & buses in support of 1/6. You’re a seditious traitor too.

Like dozens of lawsuits filed against MO schools, many not even served on the defendants & then dismissed? Playing politics with the justice system?

Sell Missouri to China!

Heh.

Wow. You have zero self-awareness, huh? I mean, none at all

Is there room for prosecutions of actual crimes? Because using campaign money as hush money for illicit affairs is … a crime.

Hypocrite.

Shut your sycophantic, ladder-climbing yap, you disgustingly corrupt twatwaffle.

Fucking what? This from the bullshit artist that sued school districts in his own state firing sv pandemic?

You’re pathetic. You are even worse than hawley, and that’s saying something.

Kind of like the ones you filed against Missouri school districts. You are a disgusting pig.

I am baffled by all these low brow and poorly educated people who still do everything Trump tells them too. Unbelievable. You are drunk on ignorance and gullibility. Haven’t you learned yet?!? My God!!!

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

There is simply no room in our justice system for someone like you to be this stupid AND BRAG ABOUT IT!

His co-conspirator served months in federal prison for the same crime- the crime was already found, dumbass.

I was with the President Friday night and I can assure you he is resolute and focused on doing the things necessary to save this great nation from the destruction of enemies, both foreign and domestic.
We all know what this is…it’s political persecution from a Soros-funded hack and proof they are scared.
Would they be doing this if Trump wasn’t running in 2024? I can almost guarantee you they wouldn’t be. It’s clear they’ll dig everything up — dating back to past parking tickets to try to disqualify him!!!

Congressman, this is sad picture. If you think giving two thumbs up to next to someone who has subverted democracy, lived his entire life on the fringes of fraud and is devoid of moral decency then you’ve fallen farther from servant discipleship than I could’ve imagined.

Uh, Mark Alford (r) was already there.

President of the spray tan club?

Why don’t you try representing Missouri.

Former president, also ew.

Two losers, congratulations.

Well we in KC all knew what mark was really like. So glad you’re off of tv but sad you’re in office and a trumper. Bad all around.

Not the flex you think it is.

Here’s a novel idea … Go work for all your constituents and not just your conservative base. We all deserve better than this.

Careful who’s side you take. The former guy will turn on you. You’re liable to get what you deserve!

Lock him up!

Just had to add the #JewishBoogeyman, didn’t you, you pathetic little sycophant?

Mark. [….] what the hell are you doing man.

He’s always known.

Oh brother. Such an embarrassment for KC…. I’m surprised you were able to post this with your lips on his ass.

Anyone who believes your delusional brainwashed B.S. needs to get counseling

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

From time to time right wingnut concern trolls try to leave comments here. Our system defaults to automatic moderation – that is, comments have to be approved. We don’t allow such comments to be linked to the original post, but on occasion, when we see fit, we’ll mock these attempts.

We see fit.

Some people are getting a might bit touchy these days. Yet another attempted comment submitted in response to Remember those hearings on Bengha….oh, wait (February 19, 2023):

Amazing the amount of clueless people still backing democrats. You are the problem and the demise of our country. Neither side is perfect but only one still has at least a few morals and a little sanity left. Democrats are disgusting, perverted, and stand for nothing beneficial to any of us. Truly evil and supported, which just baffles me.

$130,000.00 goes a long way to erasing any whiff of perversion or immorality in some hypocritical circles, eh?

By the way, the IP address and email address of all comments are attached to the original comment in our blog operating system.

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

An orange jumpsuit would fit.

I love interviews
[….]
9:33 AM · Mar 17, 2023

Some of the responses:

You also love running
[….]

As long as the questions are soft.
[….]

On a network that admits it lies to their viewers?

“Faux News channel, fascist groupies” – protest sign, circa 2003- 2004.

But do you know what Fox News hosts say about you behind your back?

Do tell.

*friendly venues only

You challenged him? LOL Dude, have you listened to yourself interview? It’s pathetic. You asked him questions. There was no challenging going on. At the end, he asked you if you could start the interview. He didn’t even take you seriously.

You love running out of the Capitol too don’t you?

We bet you do, anything besides doing actual work.
#losers

I love Section 3 of the 14th Amendment. #Resign #Jan6thInsurrection

I bet you get tough questions on Fox News. How did you handle it Josh? We’re so impressed.

#FoxNewsIsAThreatToDemocracy
#FoxNewsLies
#GOPClownShow

You love attention.

Why? You look ridiculous in all of them.

We know. Believe me, we know.

I think you mostly love yourself. [….]

I don’t love election deniers.

so you are calling out a guy for going after people who like free speech….by calling out the guy for exercising his free speech. the irony is just, too much.

Just curious, is there another state in the country that has TWO ass-clowns in the US Senate? Or are we just the lucky one.
