Yesterday:

Eric Schmitt
[….]
Joe Biden is so concerned with the sovereignty of other nations’ borders, but has utterly ignored the sovereignty of our own border. I joined Ron Johnson on Laura Ingraham to talk about it.
[….]

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

Some of the responses:

SITTING WITH INSURRECTIONISTS! DISGUSTING!

I’m sitting in my apartment in Kyiv listening to missiles explode while my Senator is saying this ignorant bullshit [….]

All you do is whine. Like a child. Do something or leave office.

How in the world did we end up with this don the con thug? They love their commie friends, and even though the border crisis is an entirely different thing, Both are manageable if they are approached in a appropriate way! Let’s vote Blue and rid our state of these repub stains!

You are using the wrong word. Sovereignty does not mean “keeping people out because they are different than us” That is prejudice – racism, religious intolerance and a [w]hole lot of other nastiness.

Explain the specific policy differences between the former and current administrations.
Tell us about title 8 and title 42.
All of this information is available to anyone who is seeing your post,why don’t you give the facts about border policies.

One has nothing to do with the other

Resign hack

Senator Johnson was a part of the fake electors plot in Wisconsin. He went on TV and said even though the fake electors admitted guilt to avoid a huge financial penalty it was not true. He then said democrats did the same thing in many states. When pressed where he could not name any state. Both of you are supporting an insurrection and not the constitution. Neither of you have any credibility

Schmitt wants Putin to win. Schmitt wants to make sure the next pandemic kills more people and no vaccines are ever used again.

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

How long are you going to beat this dead conspiracy horse?

Yesterday, from Mark Alford (r):

Mark Alford
[December 10, 2023]
President Zelensky, the charm offensive and pressure campaign on us in Congress will not work to secure more aide until two things happen:
#1 you tell us what the end game is. What does victory look like?
#2 we start to secure our OWN border with Mexico.
We have authorized and appropriated more than 113 billion dollars so far.
Our taxpayers and our citizens deserve answers and security!!!!
See you Tuesday, Sir.
[….]

Two different issues, dumbass. One having nothing to do with Ukraine.

“…#1 you tell us what the end game is. What does victory look like?…”

How about stopping aggression against a neighboring country by an authoritarian government and leader and deterring it in the future? For starters.

Ahistorical dumbass.

Mark Alford (r) [2023 file photo].

The responses are telling. One exchange:

Mark Alford. why are you supporting Putin against an ally of the United States? Why are you advocating for US boots on the ground involvement in a European ground war, which is EXACTLY what is going to happen if Ukraine falls to Putin? The fact you don’t know this means you either don’t know the basics you need to do your job, or you’re a traitor to this nation in your stand with Putin. Which is it?

A retort:

your a true moron!

You’re.

Welcome to 21st Century America.

Today, from Mark Alford (r):

Congressman Mark Alford
[November 1, 2023]
For far too long, the Washington swamp has tried to tie critical and controversial legislation together, dealing lawmakers an impossible hand by forcing them to vote on bundled legislation.
That stops here. The House is set to vote on an aid package to Israel, separate from the aid to Ukraine.
As lawmakers, we need to individually evaluate and systematically review aid packages and track where the money is going.
American taxpayers are footing the bill for these wars: they are funding Ukraine, Israel, and potentially Taiwan down the road. Congress should not be forced to send billions to multiple countries for different wars simultaneously.
America’s financial health is deteriorating; the dollar is weakening, and the endless printing of money has no end in sight.
We need individual review, accountability, and oversight for aid packages, not a bundle.
This is American taxpayers’ money, and allowing members to vote on this separately should be the standard.

We know Vladimir Putin thinks helping Ukraine is controversial. Go figure.

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

Who else? We’ll wait.

Some of the responses to Mark Alford (r)

Tell us , Alford, who do you want America to be in the World?
A Leader of Democracy that believes every single person has rights and say in their Government?
OR a Putin “kiss the hand” country who believes in Autocracy, Oligarchy and Facism.
History is repeating itself…..

The republican party needs to stop catering to Putin! Do your job and vote for aid to Ukraine and Isreal and stop playing games!

yes I remember that the United States and Europe sanctioned Russia heavily over that and General Flynn promised the Russians that Trump would ease those sanctions once he got in office.

“Make America Great Again” – in Russian.

if they were not enforced why was Russia wanting their Puppet Trump to release them so badly ?

So the majority party is trying to separate Isreal aid, while keeping it tied to IRS de-funding, and then take the separated Ukraine aide and tie it to border funding. So much for your premise of un-bundleing

That’s pretty disingenuous considering it includes cutting IRS funding.

AMEN, SO TRUE. STOP THOWING OUR MONEY AWAY TO OTHER COUNTRIES WHO DO NOT PAY BACK. YOU WANT TO CUT MY SOCIAL SECURITY, THAT IS NOT FAIR, WE WORKED FOR IT & WE DO NOT NEED IT GOING OVERSEAS WHERE THEY DO NOT APPRECIATE IT OR PAY BACK.
GOD BLESS AMERICA [….]

Is somebody going to tell her?

I don’t want aid to foreign countries

Isolationist.

I’d rather throw American tax dollars at foreign countries now to help them fight aggressors than not help them and later have to throw American service members directly into the fray.

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

Define globalist, Josh. Explain your dog whistle to us.

Josh Hawley (r) [2016 file photo].

This morning:

Josh Hawley @HawleyMO
Billions to Ukraine, no oversight. The neocons and globalists learned nothing from Afghanistan. I am introducing legislation to create a special oversight watchdog just for Ukraine – track every penny – and report to the people where it’s going
[….]
8:56 AM · Feb 27, 2023

Some of the responses:

You are a traitor and a putin loyalist

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

The sky is falling – Monday’s edition
[….]

putin will love this

Could you also develop an oversight committee to track where all of your salary is spent? Because Missouri is NOT getting their money’s worth from you in the job you are doing.

Hi Mr running man! How’s the jogging?

Josh Hawley is a #RussianAsset

What is a globalist?

A term used as a dog whistle.

Run Josh Run.

When does your committee on how to organize a coup and overthrow a government and stop a fair and partial election meet?

January 5, 2021.

Equating Ukraine to Afghanistan is breathtakingly cynical and mendacious – a new low even for you.

How about an oversight committee to investigate your part in trying to overthrow the 2020 election!

Hawley – yet another GOP Russian asset.

There is oversight and the military and non military aide is making a huge difference in helping Ukraine defend their homeland. I remember when republicans stood for countries that fought for their freedom.

Self-promote much?

Always.

Were you one of the ones against oversight of the PPP loan program?

Run Josh Run.

You are a cowardly fraud.

Translation: I’m doing nothing except making appearances on right wing news shows and tweet-whining.

Same routine different day. Bit yawn Josh.

Josh has a book to sell.

It’s almost like you hate democracy.

Almost?

You realize most Americans think you are a clown.

Heh.

Ah yes, yes, the man who ran away like a coward, speaking on topics he has no idea what they mean. How much is Putin paying you, seditionist?

Why is a US Senator pushing Russian propaganda?

it’s a lie to suggest there is no oversight Running Man.

Josh is so spoiled that he doesn’t even recognize the value of democracy in Ukraine…or even here at home.

I’d like a little oversight……do you actually reside in the State you represent?

“Hawley doesn’t even live here”

Heh.

Traitor who cut and ran says what?

Again with the anti-semitic dog whistles. Very embarrassing for Missouri, Senator. STL has a large jewish community who deserve better. #VoteBlue2024

Neocons? 48 GOP senators; 37 voted in favor of aid to Ukraine. 150 plus GOP House members voted in favor of aid to Ukraine. They are not “neocons” or “globalists”. They are the majority…of your party. Only a supporter of authoritarian rule would support the Russian invasion

Are you trying to help Putin? #Traitor

There is oversight. You are lying. Administration knows exactly where that money goes. Btw helping to fund Ukraines fight together w our western Allies is a bargain in degrading Putin’s military might. Its a prepayment to saving democracy. Unless of course I U care less abt that

There’s plenty of oversight, Little Running Man seditionist, traitor and antisemite. You just don’t like Democrats overseeing the spending in an effort to defeat your pal Putin.

Serious shade

This afternoon:

Claire McCaskill @clairecmc
Trump never would have gone to Ukraine because

A)Putin would not approve.
B) He never understood the importance of standing up for democracies.
C)He would not support unified effort of NATO to check the war crimes of Russia.

D)HE WOULD BE TOO AFRAID.

answer? Hint: ALL of it
1:57 PM · Feb 20, 2023

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

Some of the responses:

The only way trump goes to Kyiv is if he’s there standing next to Putin

Heh. Make America Great Again, in Russian.

Trump would have asked for a favor first, and then Kushner would have chipped in asking what $$$’s were in it for him.

E) Not enough Depends in the world.

No Trump hotel or golf resort there

Grifter has to grift.

It’s cold over there. Bad for the hair. Also, he said people that fight for their countries are losers.

I believe Trump always asks the question, what’s in it for me. If there was an angle that would have enriched him, he would have done it. But that’s the only reason.

E)..He is a soulless grifter and he couldn’t figure out how to make money from a visit.

Eric Schmitt (r) [2022 file photo}.

This morning, on word (obviously) that President Joe Biden (D) traveled to Ukraine:

Eric Schmitt @Eric_Schmitt
If you want to understand why so many Americans are frustrated right now:

Biden is in Ukraine before Ohio.
8:46 AM · Feb 20, 2023

Herbert. Herbert. Herbert.

What a dick.

Some of the responses:

Americans are frustrated because people like you keep lying and misleading them.

Joe Biden is President of the United States, not Governor of Ohio.

Speaking of which, let’s check with the Governor of Ohio, shall we?
[….]

The reason why a majority of Americans are so frustrated that we have to listen to manipulative and inaccurate drivel like this from people like you.

I’m a constituent of yours out here in rural MO farm country (you should visit us out here some time, btw), & I’m thrilled the President traveled to Ukraine. It’s one of the most important presidential visits in the past 20 years.

I’m not frustrated at our President. Our President is doing today what America used to believe in; fighting for freedom and democracy around the world. You have seventeen gov’t agencies on the ground in East Palestine right now, what else is there to do?

Interestingly, Eric Schmitt (r) isn’t there.

GFY!

The trip to Poland was planned a long time ago. President Biden took the opportunity to visit Ukraine.

What are you doing about Ohio, Eric, besides tweeting snarky comments about the President?
Why don’t you get your Republican colleagues on board to tighten railroad safety regulations that were relaxed under Trump?

It’s in his nature.

You sully your comms team by making them shovel this waste. This work will be a permanent stain on their resumes.

Actually it’s gaslighting like this that frustrates me

If you want to understand why A FEW Americans are frustrated right now it’s b/c they have been indoctrinated to hate democracy, root for it to fail, & clearly don’t get that if our (and others) democracy fails, they will rapidly lose all the FREEDOMS they so cherish.

You’re literally making a living out of advocating for deregulation and shitting on the EPA. How about sitting this one out?

I LOVE all your tweets. Zero substance. Keep them coming.

Clowns have to be clowns.

You’re pathetic!

If you want to understand why so many Americans are frustrated right now:

You’re a U.S. Senator.

Straight up Vladimir Putin talking points.
[….]

I’ll bet EPA, FEMA, and Transportation are all there doing their jobs. Quit gaslighting people and do YOUR job.

You’re an embarrassment to Missouri.

Idiot.

Nope. But look at the crap you and Josh pulled while advancing your political career at the expense of the Missouri people. That’s frustrating.

You lie so easily.

Color me frustrated that an idiotic portion of our country wants to complete ignore US History and the Cold War to justify allowing Putin to invade an independent country. But, you’re an idiot, so there’s that.

You can’t be that stupid, can you?

He is.

No time to visit East Palestine, Ohio but plenty of time for this
[….]
10:09 AM · Feb 20, 2023

What an ass.

Some of the responses:

Do you see how efficiently MAGA uses the US supporting its allies in Europe and standing up to Putin as a wedge to campaign against Biden? Do you see how closely aligned trump and Putin’s interests are? And how they have been since putin illegally helped trump take power in 2016?

Will Trump be holding JD’s hand in East Palestine or vice versa?

Your party deregulated the rail industry, and declined the use of hazardous materials cars even after you saw the disaster in Canada where an entire town was burned to the ground. Dewine got federal assistance after delaying asking for it. All you do is lie.

They consider that a feature, not a bug.

ok insurrectionist

See you got the Republican memo.

When did you last live in Missouri?

Valdimir Putin approves of this tweet.

You are not a serious person.

So when will you be visiting East Palestine, Ohio, Josh? They’re waiting for you.

It’s a relatively short hop from Virginia.

Why aren’t you in Ohio Josh? Full of great photo opportunities.

He was.

Josh Hawley: No time to work, but plenty of time to tweet and do Fox News hits.
[….]

Says the senator that can’t find Missouri on a map.

All hail the King of the False Equivalency, Joshua the Fearful!

Why do you want Russia to win so badly, Josh?

“I Stand With Ukraine” [2022 file photo].

From the White House:

FEBRUARY 20, 2023
Statement from President Joe Biden on Travel to Kyiv, Ukraine

As the world prepares to mark the one-year anniversary of Russia’s brutal invasion of Ukraine, I am in Kyiv today to meet with President Zelenskyy and reaffirm our unwavering and unflagging commitment to Ukraine’s democracy, sovereignty, and territorial integrity.

When Putin launched his invasion nearly one year ago, he thought Ukraine was weak and the West was divided. He thought he could outlast us. But he was dead wrong.

Today, in Kyiv, I am meeting with President Zelenskyy and his team for an extended discussion on our support for Ukraine. I will announce another delivery of critical equipment, including artillery ammunition, anti-armor systems, and air surveillance radars to help protect the Ukrainian people from aerial bombardments. And I will share that later this week, we will announce additional sanctions against elites and companies that are trying to evade or backfill Russia’s war machine. Over the last year, the United States has built a coalition of nations from the Atlantic to the Pacific to help defend Ukraine with unprecedented military, economic, and humanitarian support – and that support will endure.

I also look forward to traveling on to Poland to meet President Duda and the leaders of our Eastern Flank Allies, as well as deliver remarks on how the United States will continue to rally the world to support the people of Ukraine and the core values of human rights and dignity in the UN Charter that unite us worldwide.
