With typical bad timing and a typically bad take, Missouri’s right wingnut Attorney General:

Eric Schmitt @Eric_Schmitt
The Biden, Pelosi and Schumer agenda: Open borders and amnesty, taxpayer funded abortion, attacks on our religious liberties, job crushing regulations, billion dollar bailouts for blue states and higher taxes for you and me.

Missouri is a “blue state”. Fancy that.

You think he’ll sue to give it all back? Just asking.

Yesterday, from Josh Hawley (r):

Josh Hawley @HawleyMO
End the culture of corruption. Resign.

3:00 PM · Sep 29, 2021

Feeling the heat all the way to Virginia? Just asking.

Some of the responses:

Are you resigning because you were a major instigator of the January 6th insurrection?

Senator Jack Danforth said “Supporting Josh Hawley was the worst mistake I ever made in my life”. This from a man who championed Clarence Thomas. [….]

I’ve had to press the like icon twice. When I posted my previous comment, the like icon changed as if I had not liked it when I did. It happened right before my eyes. Just letting you know twitter may be messing with your numbers. Happens to alot of ppl these days I hear.

No, Josh….YOU resign. [….]

Yes Joshie I agree…when are you resigning? [….]

You left out a word. I’ll help. “End the culture of corruption. I’ll resign!” You’re welcome.

The person who should resign is a self-serving asshole who has never once thought of the people he represents.

You should be the one resigning.

You first [….]

Did I read your tweet right? @HawleyMO is going to end the culture of corruption by resigning?

Oh so you’re resigning! That’s awesome news for Mo!

You first, Virginia man.

Here’s the chance to take your own advice!

Own goal!

Yeah. Definitely you should resign.

Yeah. This likely won’t age well. Getting my screenshot now.

That’s exactly what we thought.

She did her job. You’re the one who should resign.

Josh Hawley’s motto is “Rules For Thee But Not For Me”

You first, traitor.

Start with yourself

Translation: Please don’t investigate me.

Mens rea.

Love the self own. Must be getting close to being served for Jan 6 testimony. Worried? Of course you are [….]

Good advice. For yourself

Why are you commenting on things in Missouri when you live in Virginia?

You have no shame.

Poor Josh. Accountability is something you aren’t used to have happen to you.

You embarrass yourself and our state every time you speak, it’s astonishing

I can’t believe you actually said this unironically.

Practice what you preach, Joshy.

You forgot the “I” before resign.

Blah, blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah

End the culture of sedition. Resign

Do you make a habit of publicly tweeting memos to yourself?

Are you seriously talking to yourself?

Still an idiot

Get satanism out of government and out of America! People don’t realize every horrifying events energies are produced for their purposes of afflictions looking for a bodies reception to the distortion a nightmare looking to reside and corrupt the bodies by deceptions against God

Josh, do you know the saying “lead by example?” Why don’t you make the first move and resign yourself?

Hmmmm. Good words for you to live by.

End the culture of sedition. Resign yourself, you disingenuous prick.

You’re a horse faced traitor. Eat shit and resign.

You ARE the culture of corruption, you partisan hack

Take your own advice, asshole.

“…In Missouri, state funding accounts for about 32% of per-student funding. That places Missouri at 49th nationally for percentage of school resources coming from state funding. As a result, schools rely heavily on local sources like property taxes to fund schools…”

State Auditor Nicole Galloway (D) [2019 file photo].

Priorities.

On Thursday:

Auditor Galloway’s examination of K-12 school funding trends finds Missouri ranks 49th in school funding from state resources
Unlike most other states, Missouri schools rely heavily on local sources to fund classrooms; Foundation Formula funding has not grown with inflation
05/27/2021

Missouri State Auditor Nicole Galloway today released a report that examined funding trends in K-12 education in the state. The report found Missouri ranks near the bottom for the portion of classroom funding that comes from state sources and the formula calculating per-student funding has not kept up with inflation.

“The state is not stepping up to meet the needs of students in Missouri, shifting the burden and leaving Missourians paying higher property taxes to support their schools,” Auditor Galloway said. “The opportunity for a quality education is key to ensuring economic growth. My report details the facts that can spur change at the state level so we no longer rank at the bottom when it comes to supporting schools.”

The report looked at the portion of school funding that comes from state sources. In Missouri, state funding accounts for about 32% of per-student funding. That places Missouri at 49th nationally for percentage of school resources coming from state funding. As a result, schools rely heavily on local sources like property taxes to fund schools.

The issue of Missourians carrying a greater tax burden at the local level was first discussed by Auditor Galloway in a report released in February 2018 that examined the state’s annual budgeting process. That report found 68 percent of local school districts had seen an increase in reliance on local funding over the past 10 years.

The report also looked at funding provided through the State Adequacy Target (SAT), the mechanism used to determine whether the state has met its obligation to fund schools. This funding has not kept up with inflation.

The report looked at 10 years of data and found that from 2013-2017, the state did not meet its per-student funding obligation, a number that is based on average operating expenditures of the 25 top-performing school districts. Changes were made to the formula to cap growth and limit increases. While these changes have resulted in the formula being fully funded, the current formula to calculate the amount distributed has not kept up with inflation.

[….]

The audit.

We’re 49th! We’re 49th! We’re 49th…

Or if you’ve overseen an incompetent [accessed 10/13/2020] state response to COVID-19.

Thank you for accessing the Show Me Strong COVID-19 dashboards. The public health dashboards are currently under maintenance and were last updated on Saturday, October 10. They will be back up and running soon once a database extract error is resolved. Read more here on the website of the Missouri Department of Health and Senior Services.

The indicated link at “here” in the announcement on the Missouri DHSS COVID-19 dashboard site is broken.

…As of Tuesday afternoon, there have been at least 149,731 cases and 2,486 deaths in Missouri since the beginning of the pandemic, according to a New York Times database…

Or if you’ve cut off 100,000 Missouri Children from access to health care.

“…one of more than 100,000 Missouri children who have been dropped from the state’s Children’s Health Insurance Program since 2018. In September 2019, the Medicaid and CHIP Payment and Access Commission reported that Missouri had the largest decline — 15.1 percent — in children covered by those two insurance programs between May 2017 and May 2019. Parson became governor on June 1, 2018, following the resignation of Governor Eric Greitens…”

We got mail today from the right wingnut PAC, Uniting Missouri, propping up Mike Parson’s (r) gubernatorial campaign:

Ooh. Scary.
