Last Friday, via Twitter:

Rep. Vicky Hartzler @RepHartzler
Congratulations to the Missouri legislature for passing the most #ProLife legislation in the nation. Now more children will have a chance to live & women will have the support they need to bring their pregnancies to full term. #lifeisgood
5:29 PM – 17 May 2019

Representative Vicky Hartzler (r) [2018 file photo].

Some of the responses:

You come from a generation of women who fought for the rights stripped from us today.

A generation that pioneered economic independence for women.

A generation I admire. But you are not those women.

You are a reason I’m less free than I was yesterday.

#2020iscoming

The law covers medical expenses for the mother right? And if the infant is born with special needs their medical expenses are covered as well as special education? Because you care so much?

Uh, that would be a “no”. There could be an offer of a hot meal, though.

What are you going to do about the fact that missouri has one of the worst maternal death rates? Did you know in the bootheel there isn’t a maternity ward within 100 miles? How will you save women?

There’s a special place in Hell for women who enjoyed the protection of Roe for their entire childbearing years, and then try to deny it to other women after they hit menopause.

Women will die because of this law.

This is not ProLife legislation. It is pro-birth . Pro-life means you support all aspects of a life through education, health care, sensible gun laws and the mental health anguish of being raped. I hope you plan to support legislation to help ALL children!

I will no longer follow you. How can you approve of women’s rights being taken away???

She always has, opposed the equal rights amendment and her voting score for civil rights is very very low.

You’re not pro life. You’re #antichoice so you really think women will continue to vote for you?

Shame on you

Grateful I am no longer represented by a woman who doesn’t stand up for reproductive rights, but so sorry for my friends and family who remain in her district and that I won’t be there to vote her out of office. Once again disgusted by @RepHartzler.

Thanks for passing sharia law, Vicky. I’ll remember this. We all will.

U will ensure any rapist will pay child support & counseling for PTSD, right?

The mother will immediately be eligible 4 state aid as she is a household of @ least 2 @ 8 weeks if income level qualifies, right?

Finally, she can immediately claim 8 week old on her taxes, right?

Vicky please keep your shitty religion out of our politics.

What support? Missouri has kicked off over 60, 000 children from Medicaid since January 2018? You think it’s great to force rape or incest victims to birth their assaulters child. What if you knew in advance one of these babies were gay or trans, would you want them aborted?

2 things: 1) ur legislation will backfire when women start dying from backyard abortions & 2) where r the $’s coming from for FOOD STAMPS?

Oh but they’re cutting food stamps and CHIP.

We are embarrassed by this assault on the freedom of women to make their own choices in their moral life, whatever those decisions are. One more example of government inserting itself in the personal moral life of individuals in a heavy handed way. You are NOT our moral compass.

What part of the legislation supports women to bring their pregnancies to full term? MO has one of the highest maternal death rates in the country and the MO GOP has done nothing about it. Last year 50,000 MO children lost Medicaid coverage and the MO GOP did nothing.

I refuse to normalize your pride in taking women back to the dark ages. Shame on you

Says the woman who wasn’t at all bothered that children were being taken from their families and put in cages. You have a strange definition of pro-life, Congresswoman.

Vicky, who, exactly, is going to support women throughout their entire pregnancy?
What programs are in place in MO to assist the children impregnated by their incestuous fathers?
What programs are in place in MO to assist the female raped who is unfit to be a mother?

How do women have support? What in the law gave them support? How does this help them?

What an embarrassment you are.

Does this bill provide access to pregnant mothers without health insurance for prenatal care too?

I am ashamed to know you’re my parents’ rep and would have been mine had I chosen to stay (I left because of people like you). Your constituents do NOT want this, and you are openly & illegally defying settled precedent. SHAME ON YOU VICKY HARTZLER.

Until they’re born to starve or suffer from a curable disease because the little freeloaders are #Socialists.

There you go.

Governor Mike Parson (r) [2018 file photo].

Yesterday, via Twitter:

Governor Mike Parson @GovParsonMO
As other states like New York and Virginia venture further away from the American ideal to protect and uphold the #RightToLife, I’m honored to lead a state with so many people who are committed to standing up for those without a voice.
11:14 AM – 15 May 2019

Some of the comments:

Pro-pre-birth means it’s ok to shoot em @ school after birth.

Women are the ones with no voice here.

*starts looking up job opportunities in New York*

Come to NY where women still have rights!!!!!

I’ve never be more proud to be a New Yorker.

Proud and ignorant. Quite a combination.

Get New York out ya nasty mouth

Missouri’s values are to care about fetuses more than the woman carrying them & I don’t agree w that. When people believe a 12 year old girl should give birth to her rapist’s baby, that’s not pro-life. That’s hatred of women and girls. Misogyny at its best. Welcome to Missouri!

New York and Virginia, where women have equal rights, you mean.

#GileadMissouri

they dont have a voice bc they arent people

Misogynist.

New York & Virginia passed laws so women facing death wouldn’t have to survive waiting period. Below explains late term abortion is legal. I can’t imagine pain of facing this horror. Those who advance off their pain aren’t folks I want to rule me.

If people want a state that actually values women, come see us in Vermont. No matter where you go, good luck getting the hell out of Missouri!

If this passes are you going to pass legislation for the fathers to be financially responsible? If a paternity test proves fatherhood it should be mandatory for the dad to take care of his kids. If women have to have them, men should support them.

PROTECTING WOMEN’S HEALTH So now if a woman is facing death because something went wrong with her pregnancy, she doesn’t have the right to choose to save her own life. Or if the baby has passed away, she has to carry it to term and birth it…

…even though it could cause a plethora of health problems. Newsflash: that’s not protecting women’s health or rights. That’s RISKING a woman’s health. Did you get your degree from one of those inserts that comes in a new picture frame?

#WomensRightsAreHumanRights #MyBodyMyChoicePeriod #AlabamaHatesWomen
#MissouriMiserySameDifference

Stay out of my uterus #prochoice #MyBodyMyChoicePeriod #AbortionRights

Governor, I used to be “pro-life.” And then I realized it wasn’t about protecting “those without a voice.” It’s about making women’s medical decisions for them and ignoring children’s needs as soon as they’re born. You and others like you are pro-birth, not pro-life. Sit down.

You should be ashamed of yourself for silencing women and choosing campaign dollars over public health. You know this, and you just don’t care. But women don’t forget. And we are coming for you.

You should be ashamed of yourself.

72 percent of American’s support roe. Perhaps you lack and understanding of American ideals.
#WomensRightsAreHumanRights

Yes, don’t worry. As your young women are abused and mistreated, we will welcome them to NY and provide them with the care you refused to give.

Get Virginia out of your mouth

Virginia is awesome. I think you are misrepresenting the majority view in your state. You might want to look into that. Actually I don’t care, go ahead and lose next election.

You are a misogynist monster.

Congrats on making a state which many women will choose to leave or never move to, and where any business in their right mind won’t want to locate. #Gilead

So what actions are in place to protect life when children get slaughtered in school shootings. You inaction and callous disregard for those lives speak volumes … Yeah I know guns matter more than life. But carry on ..

I’m committed to standing up for the rights of women and the constitution. You do not represent my values.

To bad you don’t respect women’s rights over their own bodies. You are a joke.

The #RightToLife is the #RightToChoose
Women and their bodies are not for this shit government to control

Proud to be from Virginia – our Commonwealth respects and promotes freedom to make decisions about one’s own body and the welfare of living children – children being ignored and disregarded by your party.

You should be horrified and ashamed that you are dragging America back to the Middle Ages and putting women’s lives and health at risk. Shame on you

What about my voice? What about the voices of all of the women you refuse to hear? What about my right to health care? What about my body autonomy? Oh right, none of that exists in your eyes.

Willing to support the children after they are born or are you a hypocrite?

Except for women – you are leading a war on women and we will not forget. Just like Greitens – you want to keep women tied up in the basement and without a choice for their body.

It’s not America’s ideal. It’s the ideal of people like you who think they have a right to tell women what they can do with their bodies. You have no right. And you know what else, Bub? Women are done taking your male domination bullshit. You will not control us.

Fuck you.

you’re taking our voice away. you are such a piece of shit

Go fuck yourself.

Don’t you dare call denying rights to women an “American ideal”, you shit

You are a liar and a hypocrite. You understand nothing of American ideals (say, liberty) and care or know even less about women’s health. You’re trying to kill women and subjugate them to your extremist theocratic world view. It’s despicable.

From Virginia with love… Fuck you clown

You know you Republicans need to make up your minds.. you can’t be against birth control AND abortion. What the hell do you idiots own a coat hanger factory?

Now that you mention it…

Governor Mike Parson (r) [2018 file photo].

Today on Twitter:

Governor Mike Parson @GovParsonMO
It’s time to make Missouri the most Pro-Life state in the country! Thanks to leaders in the House and Senate, we are one vote away from passing one of the strongest #ProLife bills in the country – standing for life, protecting women’s health, and advocating for the unborn.
11:14 AM – 15 May 2019

Some of comments:

People will still have abortions, why not spend more money on education and contraception?

I’m assuming that you will put measures in place to punish men who do not pay 50% of child support or provide 50% of the care for these children? Otherwise you are just punishing women for sex, not truly helping children.

Clumps of cells get rights actual voting women only wish they had.

For the life of me, I can’t understand the blinders thinking of pro-“life”, but anti-common sense gun legislation. Anti social services. Anti adequate health care. Anti teacher support. I can’t fathom why THIS is your goal. As a lifelong resident, it sickens me.

Because they can.

This bill will not be popular. Just like undermining Clean Missouri and the Medical Marijuana amendments will not be popular.

The MO GOP is overreaching, and it will pay for it dearly in 2020.

hey mike, have you ever bled from your vagina?

You do know this covers mistresses too?

It would be great if MO Repubs cared as much for the born, rather than continuing to scale back social support programs.

Not to mention hospitals and other medical care facilities anywhere other then major cities.
But keep voting Republican…

Can we find something else to be strong in?

According to this link, Missouri is SO pro life they’ve executed *checks notes* 88 people since 1976. Or did you just mean pro SOME lives?

Sharia law comes to Missouri.

Missouri women will die if these laws are passed. The loss of their lives will be on your hands because you refuse to see women as anything more than child-bearing vessels.

Great, so you’re going to make it more difficult to buy firearms? Ban high capacity magazines? Limit ammunition purchases? Require a gun registry for all gun owners and liability insurance as well? That would be the most “pro-life” thing I can think of.

This does not protect women’s health. It turns us into incubators.

I’m astounded that you think this is a good thing. You arent standing up for anything – instead of SAFE, RESPONSIBLE abortions by MEDICAL DOCTORS, you lead people back to back alleys. Forcing a woman to be an incubator is NOT protecting women’s health. Corpses get more rights.

Resign for the well being of anyone capable of getting pregnant in this state

#WomensRightsAreHumanRights

People will die if you do this.

Mike, you’re only the governor because the other white guy tied up his mistress and blackmailed her with the photos. Take your GOP righteousness and GTFO.

Missouri has the death penalty, no?

Your bill is honestly disgraceful and I’m ashamed of any “progress” you think we’ve made as a state in this regard.

This is a step backward for Missouri. Progress doesn’t mean infringing on women’s rights and making the health of their bodies more restrictive. #YouMonster.

Pro-life, you say? So when are you doing something about gun control?

Translation: I really don’t care about women’s rights or any birthed children. I’m just an old white man who wants to control them.

I don’t think those words mean what you think they mean. #RoeVWade

You’re NOT “pro-life” unless you also want strict gun control, healthcare for all, ban the death penalty, environmental protections, climate action. What you’re doing is removing women’s rights over their own bodies, imposing your religious beliefs on others, & abridging freedom.

Wow, look at all the support for your forced birth law!

we don’t want this

Pro-life? So you’ll end the death penalty? You’ll concentrate resources to improve infant mortality outcomes? You’ll make sure healthcare is not a death or bankruptcy proposition? You’ll make sure kids in school are there to learn and are not an okay sacrifice for gun ownership?

Are you expanding Medicaid? Fantastic! Otherwise “pro-life” is “pro-control women” and that’s all.

DO IT and then get ready to be voted out, you misogynistic prick. Women are sick of having men tell us what we can do with our bodies, and if you think the 2018 midterms were scary for the gop, JUST WAIT.

Focus on housing. Focus on climate. Focus on jobs. Focus on education. Focus on mental health. Those are #prolife priorities.

I dont remember voting on this…

Are we putting this to a vote? Or is my government going to take away my rights without input from Missouri’s voters?

They know if abortion rights are ever put to a popular vote, they’ll lose, so why would they bother with democracy? Pretty clear today’s GOP has no interest in a democratic process.

As a Missouri voter, No. Just No. Leave my body alone. It’s not yours.

Missouri ranks 42nd in the US in maternal mortality rates. 49th in firearm deaths. 35th in infant mortality.

You’re doing it wrong.

Protecting women’s health huh? How’d you work that one out?

Missouri Taliban.

Have a vasectomy instead Mike

Are you gonna ban guns? They be against life

Great. When are we repealing the death penalty? Or do you mean working on reducing the homicide rate? Excellent. Otherwise, get your hands off women’s bodies.

You know nothing about women’s health.

Such wrongly directed intentions! Shame!

Understand the voters do not want this. You aren’t protecting women’s health, as pregnancy has far more risks than abortion. I’ll believe you’re pro-life when this state takes care of needy kids better than we do big corporations. Early term abortion should be easily accessible.

It is a woman’s body, not yours… not mine… her body her choice. Why do old white guys #OWG feel they need or by divine policy they need to try and control them? Your god gave us free will, let them utilize it.

The governor’s mistress will always have access to safe abortions

Governor, if you want to make Missouri a pro-life state, maybe you should start by eliminating the death penalty.

It is no coincidence that states that cost more in federal funds than what they contribute to the treasury are the ones who want to manage the vaginas and uteruses of their residents…

Thanks for the heads up. I’ll be sure to get involved in advocacy to stop it. #StopTheBans #ProChoice

If you do, I can assure you I will NOT vote for you or anyone else that tries this nonsense.

You’re just a #ForcedBirthExtremist. Fuck off

Got dang right Mike. We need to start executing the abortion doctors and the people that have abortions. Then Missouri will win the most pro life trophy

This being Missouri we can’t be certain it’s sarcasm.

The dead have more autonomy

Well that didn’t go well for @GovParsonMO

Stop returning us to The Dark Ages

Missouri: another state supporting forced pregnancy extremists.

Thanks for this. I will now spend my fortune supporting your opponents

If you’re trying to top Alabama, do you plan to rename your state Gilead?

Nah. If you were truly pro-life, you’d take action on gun control, support laws to fight climate change, and work on getting good health care to everyone instead of trying to take it away.

Sharia law highly enforced.

Wow, it’s a race to the bottom and Missouri wants a piece of it!

Trump says U.S. farmers to get $15 billion in aid amid China trade war

…American farmers, a key constituency of Trump, have been among the hardest hit in the trade war. Soybeans are the most valuable U.S. farm export, and shipments to China dropped to a 16-year low in 2018, while soybean futures prices last week fell this week to 11-year lows…

With planting season underway, I visited with members of @MoFarmBureau to discuss how things are looking for the year, especially with the impact of recent flooding. #MOfarmers are resilient! As a lifelong farmer, it was an honor to be presented the Friend of Farm Bureau Award!

4:07 PM – 13 May 2019

Some of the responses:

And you promised them that they’re going to get their socialist money from @realdonaldtrump, right?

Meetings with Farm Bureau this year — 5.

Town hall with constituents—0.

Hopefully Missouri’s farmers were able to consider the recently announced tariffs by China prior to planting their crop. Otherwise, they’ll be reliant on makeshift silos to store their crops they’re unable to sell and taxpayer funded bailouts to support DJT’s trade war.

“…Man, that’s just mean. That’s mean, man.” – Payback (1999)

Representative Holly Rehder (r) [2018 file photo].

This evening from Representative Holly Rehder (r) via Twitter:

Holly Rehder @hrehder
I was proud to stand with my fellow members of the Missouri House and President Trump today in saying NO to a budget that would give illegal immigrants in-state tuition. Missouri citizens must come first!
[….]
6:56 PM – 9 May 2019

Some of the responses:

Let’s get real. The university system needs the revenue thanks to rampant fiscal mismanagement in Jefferson City.

It’s not us against them.

It is in Donald Trump’s (r) world.

This is gross.

What do I, as a Missouri citizen, get out of you making life more difficult for others? How does this “put me first”? Will my tuition go down? Tell me how hurting others helps me.

This is inherently racist. People are not illegal and this does nothing to help anyone get an education. Of course an educated electorate is not what Republicans have ever been interested in.

Claiming “Missouri citizens must come first!” as you tear apart initiatives voted in by….(wait for it) Missouri citizens. I think I’ll respect the voters and vote blue.

I see you “believe in god and that people are inherently good” look up hypocrisy because you are it in spades.

I guess you skipped church day they covered “The soul who sins dies. The son won’t bear the punishment of his father’s sin and the father won’t bear the punishment of his son’s sin”

Missourah portion of the state is so embarrassing.

DACA recipients are “considered by DHS to be LAWFULLY present during the period deferred action is in effect.”

How do you, as an elected official, not know this?

Josh Hawley (r) [2016 file photo].

From Josh Hawley (r), yesterday evening, via Twitter:

Josh Hawley @HawleyMO
One year since the U.S. withdrew from the terrible Iran nuclear deal and Iran is already threatening to stockpile & resume uranium enrichment unless we prop up their failing economy. Our partners and allies should not give in to nuclear blackmail
[….]
6:35 PM – 8 May 2019

WTF? Uh, Donald Trump (r) withdrew the United States from the deal.

Some of the responses:

Yes, Josh. When one side fails honor their end of a deal, the other side tends to not keep their end up either. One year of Trump’s policy and what do we have? Iran back to enriching uranium. Americans still in jail or missing. More chaos in the region.

Call me a skeptic but I doubt any man who negotiated his way to losing $1 billion over a decade is going to how the hell to negotiate a complex nuclear deal.

So maybe the “terrible deal” was actually a pretty good deal?

What partners?

Ironic or sarcastic? Your guess is as good as mine.

Don’t you have some kid’s video game to ruin?

That’s definitely sarcastic.

The 5 permanent members of the UN Security Council+Germany+Iran were signatories.The only country to break the treaty & exit the deal is the US.
Deal was verifiable.
The US is pushing Iran into a corner.
Mortifying but true: our country is the one destabilizing this situation.

We abandoned the deal unilaterally, and somehow the Iranians are supposed to be the bad guys for adhering to the deal we abandoned for an additional year?

Does anyone in your office have _any_ respect for your constituents? Your contempt for us and reality is pathetic.

This is perhaps the most dumb tweet you’ve made. And that is an impressive accomplishment.

I’m sad that I have to wait so long to vote against you.

Josh, I’m no foreign policy expert, but it might have something to do with the #BillionDollarLoser withdrawing from the deal for no good reason and against advice from both his Sec. of Defense and National Security Adviser. Also, you are an embarrassment to Missouri.

Well, compared to Donald Trump (r) you certainly are a foreign policy expert.

Hey genius, they weren’t threatening to stockpile & resume uranium enrichment when the “terrible” deal was in force. You sure you went to an elite law school? [….]

One of those fancy ones.

What did we expect to happen? I don’t get “already.” We walked out on the agreement. This had to have been expected, no?

Expect Kim Jong-un to be thinking that it would be stupid to make any deal with Trump.

Your complicity to this failed white house is putting our country in danger.

Thanks to orange Nixon’s tax cut the deficit is higher than ever, you and your cronies are trying to get rid of what little healthcare we have, and now you’re advocating for another war?
Utter bullshit.
Sign up for your own damn war and take the 1% with you.

Whatever trump says the puppet repeats. You are a dangerous sycophant.

We noticed that, too.

What would you expect them to do-we pulled out of the deal. Spare us your fake outrage. It’s similar to how you ran your Senate race running commercials about health care-straight up lying -you were part of the lawsuit. We’re on to you #Gaslighting

You realize you’re owning yourself in this tweet, right?

No. But he did attend one of those fancy law schools.

What allies? We ditched them all when we unilaterally backed out of the agreement.

Senator, I’m not really hearing a solution here. What’s the GOP’s plan here? So far Trump broke America’s word, removing all incentive to slow down Iran’s enrichment program, all while making incendiary comments increasing tensions. What are you doing as my senator to solve this?

Nothing.

Dumbest fucking thing I’ve read today. Good job.

I can’t believe you’re actually whining about Iran not holding up their end of a deal your boss walked away from. You are an empty shirt, and a syncophant of the highest order. A soulless automaton that cannot think for itself.

You and your idiot ignorant party will drag us into a huge war. The republican party has zero clue with regards to common sense, let alone geo-political affairs.

You effing morons.

Representative Vicky Hartzler (r) [2018 file photo].

On Friday, via Twitter:

Rep. Vicky Hartzler @RepHartzler
Great news this morning! Unemployment has fallen to a 49-year low. The last time numbers were this low, NASA was beginning to land people on the moon! Our economy is surging forward, and Americans continue to benefit from Republican pro-growth policies like #GOPTaxCuts
12:00 PM – 3 May 2019

Back then NASA was beginning to land people on the Moon? And what are we doing now?

Some of the responses:

Cool. Now the truth:

Our economy has been steadily improving since 2009.

The unemployment decrease is due, in large part, to a declining workforce.

Wages are stagnant. Purchasing power hasn’t changed since the 60s.

Trump tax cuts added $2T to our debt.

As usual, no mention of wages. Doesn’t matter if you have a job when it doesn’t pay the bills. Congrats on your pro-poverty agenda.

Wage stagnation is at record levels and the deficit is over 1 trillion dollars #GOPTaxCuts

Having to work 2-3 jobs in order to survive is Not a great economy.

I seem to recall Republicans swearing that low unemployment numbers were a false metric that didn’t take into account people who stopped looking for work while Obama was in office, Congresswoman.

That would be the difference between U-3 and U-6, right? Table A 15: Alternative measures of labor underutilization

Didn’t Trump call the unemployment rate a hoax when Obama was President? You’re a hypocrite bigly.

Cut and paste hack

So, when is the next open public town hall in the 4th Congressional District? Just asking.
