The 4th district deserves so much better than you. Go back to Texas
Shocker. Mark doesn’t understand literally anything. This is all performative. Who cares about “denouncing.” This results in absolutely NOTHING for your constituents and Missouri as a whole. What a joke.
How would you categorize trying to overturn an election? Power and control?
Sedition!
And your lawsuits against school mask mandates were not? Hypocrite.
Except private schools. Hypocrite indeed.
The lies you’re spreading about them are, yes.
Caring for your neighbor, not lying, and protecting the planet we all rely on for life, that’s just basic morality. Something you know nothing about.
This tweet brought to you by the man who signed the Abortion Ban in MO personally.
Maybe if more of your voters had worn masks the midterms would have gone better for you
Don’t forget bare arms!
Ah, the Missouri General Assembly.
See also: Abortion Rights (or the lack thereof). Hypocrite.
And how are you helping women and children? Thought not.
More “gaslighting” from the GOP.
Shut up. You won. We’re stuck with you for 6 years 🤮. Please try to do some good while you’re there.
The Junior Senator from Missouri: all about proving he can be worse than the Senior Senator from Missouri.
The other guy is the third senator from Virginia.
Banning abortions, birth control, books, transgender rights, interracial marriage, same sex marriage, etcetera is about what then exactly then?
Hypocrite. Come back when you no longer fight to control those of us with uteruses.
Accidentally true… the right-wing freakouts about this nonsense are absolutely about power and control. Keeping you confused and nervous about nothing while they pick your pockets.
Sir, your party is mandating dress codes and banning books. HUSH.
Imagine if they tried to regulate your body, or tell you who you can marry.
Do you ever have an original thought?
This has been another edition of Short Answers to Simple Questions.
So is leading a coup on the Capitol. Doesn’t that bother you, Senator??
Very true. I’m curious if you had anything to do with China buying land in Missouri though? This should not be allowed. That lands needs to be taken away and auctioned.
Why? What benefit of power do you get from telling people things about their gas stoves? What is the giant payoff of that power?
LOL. Says the dude who’s all about ‘power and control’
I’m guessing you’re not seeing the irony with your previous actions sir?
The GOP wants abortion bans, contraception bans, book bans, speech bans. Now that’s about power and control.
Don’t worry when one party tries to overturn elections, tells kids which sports teams they can play on, bans books from libraries, and tells women they cannot show bare arms in the statehouse… that certainly isn’t about power and control.
What gas stove bans, liar?
are you that ridiculous lawsuit guy from Missouri suing public schools for publicity? YEAH, you are. this IS you! how did you get elected after pulling that stunt?
Weird how you like to watch people suffer medically.
Women’s attire…
When you’re not lying, you’re just mistaken.
And what is forced pregnancy and requirements for women to cover their bare arms about.
What about abortion bans like the one you signed a few months ago, Eric?
No one is banning gas stoves. Geesus, be better than the average republican politician. Don’t jump on the alarmist band wagon just because it rolls into town.
Too late.
So what does it say about Missouri where women DON’T have the right to bodily autonomy? What does it say about the fact that women legislators can’t have bare arms on the house floor?
Bans on medical freedom and women’s arms… also all about control.
Isn’t suing school districts about power and control?
Alarmism, you say?
Women not being able to make decisions about their bodies though…what’s that about?
Denying voting rights, denying women’s right to choose, denying women health services, trashing earned benefits (medicare and social security) is all about power and control
No those are Republican lies
I’d appreciate it if you’d try to resolve real issues like our contaminated well field here in st charles, mo. #prioritize
And you’re all about not doing your actual job
But controlling women’s bodies is not?
Rightwing male who voted to deny women the right of bodily sovereignty is heard complaining about his home appliance crisis.
Faux home appliance crisis.
This is an intentional lie. There is no ban on gas stoves and Schmitt knows it.
It is sad to see a US Senator from Missouri lie so blatantly.
I’m trying not to be tired of being alarmed by how awful and narcissist you are.
Still trying to figure out what you actually do because you definitely do not contribute to making laws, Senator.
How about abortion bans, book bans, and birth control?
The right to bare arms!
We see what you did there.
Culture war nonsense which you can fix, right ? How about banning abortion and books? Is that about power and control?
You lack honor and integrity.
That’s what you are about.
Every accusation is an admission of guilt with you.
Banning books, abortion, history, dress codes, teaching religion in schools, backing Russia over Ukrainian people and investigations on everything that they can. Yes, there is a power thing going on but it’s the republicans
Rep. Eric Burlison @RepEricBurlison
The mental gymnastics the media and the left are going through to ignore the Biden classified docs while simultaneously crucifying Trump is just one more example of the absurd double standards that exist today. 5:20 PM · Jan 12, 2023
You haven’t been watching/listening to the news. BTW, do YOU condemn Trump’s handling of classified documents as you have Biden’s? Be fair, Congressman.
With an I.Q. as high as yours, The mental gymnastics you must go through just to tie you shoes…
-Wait, what… They’re Velcro!?
>The mental gymnastics you must go through just to put on your shoes must be tiring
Heh.
This was then. Eric Burlison (r), August 2022:
Eric Burlison @EricBurlison
It’s disgusting how the Obama and now Biden administration have weaponized our judicial system against Trump. They investigated him and put him through hell over the bogus Steele Dossier, and now they do THIS. This swamp must be drained. These are the actions of a banana republic 5:27 AM · Aug 9, 2022
Some of the response back then:
What’s disgusting is a lawless President who escapes accountability again and again because of his money, power, and propaganda, and folks like you defending him.
You still a Trump Republican now Eric? Tik tok.
Still is, evidently.
Local man running for Congress can’t think of anything to say.
Huh? The bits of your tweet that I can make any sense of are, in fact, untrue. Obama & Biden had nothing to do w the TON of evidence of Russian collusion in 2016 that had nothing to do w the preliminary notes that made up the “Steele Dossier.” Couldn’t you squeeze Hunter in here?
Yeah. I agree. It’s really weird how the legal system is so hard on criming criminals who commit crimes. And as far as the Steele dossier goes, you do know Manafort is telling everyone and the bartender that he was giving info to a Russian agent to “settle his debts”, right?
Someone who doesn’t know what “banana republic” means shouldn’t be running for office.
Please open a history book sometime.
WHAT? Trump? The person that planned an insurrection because he LOST an election!
No problem if mob HUNG his VP! Incited violence & trashing Capitol!
Took & kept top secret documents illegally!
Wow. You are off course. Trump is a CRIMINAL.
Bad combover. Check. Too long red tie. Check. Orange spray tan. Check. Tiny hands. Check. Cluelessness. Check…

Our Republican Party couldn’t be stronger and ready to take our country back. 🇺🇸
Tonight we voted to DEFUND Biden’s 87,000 IRS agents that were hired to attack working class families. 8:44 PM · Jan 9, 2023
Some of the responses:
Awesome, rich people cheat on their taxes, now we can too!
You are a disgusting liar, but so proud of it. [….]
Protecting the rich from paying taxes & hiking up the deficit. Great start Mark.
Congressional Budget Office estimated Monday that the legislation would reduce tax revenue to the tune of almost $186 billion. The net effect would be a 114 billion increase in deficits over the next decade. Another hall pass for the rich! The working class will continue to pay.
They were not hired to attack working class families. They were to be hired over the next ten years to ease the long waits and replace those who will retire or leave in the next ten years. Find out the facts and not maga lies before you vote. Another embarrassment for Missouri.
How does allowing for financial fraud benefit the country, Mark?
They consider that a feature, not a bug.
Will the House and Senate have the votes to override Biden’s veto? Otherwise, it’s just a show
It’s a bad show that closed on five opening nights.
Strong and ready? 15 votes to agree on speaker? You already lie like an elected.
I see you’re out there spreading misinformation to protect your big-money donors and you haven’t even been on the job for less than a week. What an embarrassment you are to those who actually like the United States. Let me guess, you also are pro-insurrection.
You know that’s just a bold faced lie. Is there a shred of decency among the whole lot of you?
No. This has been another edition of Short Answers to Simple Questions.
That’s funny!! I.R.S doesn’t go after honest, hard-working families. Damn Mark didn’t take long for you to put on snake oil.
The snake oil has always been there.
This just proves you’re going to be the Ron Burgundy of Congress. No original thoughts or ideas – just read what the GOP leaders hand you.
He’s had a lot of practice.
Protecting wealthy donors
How are they attacking working class families?
Come on Mark. You know that’s a lie. Only the rich, like yourself, would need to worry about more audits. Besides, if you’re doing nothing wrong what’s it matter? You used to be a better man.
Yeah take the country back for grumpy old white men. Just what we need more extremists in DC like you.
What about going after those millionaires and billionaires that don’t pay taxes ? And BTW. Do you pay taxes?
[….] you. You were a hack journalist now a MAGA traitor.
Newsreader.
No agents were hired, Mark. Do y’all even understand what you are voting for or are you puppets?Approval was to fund hiring over 10 years to deal with waves of retirements. Good lord the invomoetency is real. You fit right in. Glad you fake moved into a new area to get elected.
The ridiculous hat is a nice touch, too.
Your political attack on the agency that enforces tax laws just shows that the GOP only cares about wealthy individuals and corporations. Some “Law and Order” politician you are!
Mark-how about a little reality check. The Republican Party is fractured and in disarray. Take our country back? From who? Mediocre broadcaster to mediocre politician. Gross.
Still, both pay well.
Dumbass
Squawk it out, you idiotic parrot.
You are an idiot. Highly disappointing to see a community figure like you be such a cult extremist who slings scare tactics. Anyone with a brain can derive the reason for the funding of additional staff and it’s not to target working class fams. Do better
“Do better” The probability appraoches zero.
They were hired to make the rich pay their fairshare dumbass
Yeah, nice try. Don’t be a dumbass, they were hired to restaff a gutted agency.
It’s as if there is nothing else of any importance.

Just a few of the non-sychophant comments:
You have no honor and no integrity. But you know how to grandstand!
You condemn Dr Fauci but remain silent on your hero 45. He had dinner with a White Supremacist and a holocaust denier. How can you possibly represent all Missourians when your hero supports the worst in human nature and you say Nothing?
Yep … breaking on truth channel : feaux news . Eric the clown ! Are you having dinner with Nick Fuentes too ?
Funny you said they saved lives in a lawsuit against china, at the same time saying maks dont matter for all the lawsuits you pressed on locals… take your moronic hypocracy elsewhere.
This is the funniest thing I’ve read in months! Are you an eight ball of coke that somehow earned a law license and got elected to political office?
Heh.
“The truth shall MAKE you free.” Big difference. But you would actually have to know the Bible.
Am I the only one who knows that ‘allegedly’ means ‘no proof’?
Schmitt is trying to emulate that lying POS AG Barr, who lied about the contents of the Mueller Report.
Bullschmitt is just stirring shit.
Eric Schmitt is an idiot.
This comment in support of Eric Schmitt (r) is priceless:

As usual, we don’t allowing ignorant comments out of moderation to be linked with an original post, but we will present them in subsequent posts for the purpose of public derision and mockery. As we see fit. We see fit:
Hillary is above the law, James comey is above the law, Christopher Wray is above the law, and all the rest of this swamp is above the law apparently!!
Who was it, again, who nominated Christopher Wray to be the Director of the FBI? Right wingnut media propaganda has permeated our cultural substrata. Welcome to 21st Century America.
