TikTok is nothing more than a CCP spy tool. America must ban this platform immediately.
[….]

As always, there is much hilarity in some of the responses:

The Biden comparisons and claims are ridiculous. You’ll try anything to place blame on the other party.
That said, it’s funny how in one breath you want to deregulate and get the government out of our personal lives, but you’re ready to ban TikTok. with no real evidence behind your claims.
While you weren’t in office at the time, I recall how you were silent about the Russian misinformation campaign during the 2016 election.

But you ignore the GOP-led Senate report that states there was interference.
And if banning anything is anti-American, then you must oppose banning TikTok. You must also oppose denying a woman’s right to control her own body.
But let’s stick to Mark’s dog whistle to try to place blamer where it doesn’t belong.

Fox News did to our parents what our parents were afraid video games, and now TikToc, would do to us.

Tik Tok, AM radio, and China’s religion. The biggest concerns our country faces.

Overcooked vegetables, too.

TV again

Hard to square that with freedom of speech, even if the CCP exploits the platform. In the grand order of challenges facing our country, banning tik-tok is akin to pole-vaulting over fly turds.

Wednesday night:

Congressman Mark Alford
[November 22, 2023]
In 2014, former SecDef Robert Gates said: “I think he [Biden] has been wrong on nearly every major foreign policy and national security issue over the past four decades”
Since Biden took office:
– We botched the Afghanistan withdrawal,
– Russia invaded Ukraine,
– Israel is under attack.
Let’s be clear: this is what happens under weak leadership.

There is much hilarity in the responses:

So, in your opinion, Biden is president of the world, not the United States.
W, Trump, and Pompeo botched Afghanistan by negotiating with the Taliban, not the President of Afghanistan. They dated the withdrawal so either they could back out if Trump was re-elected, or it would be on Biden’s plate. Biden didn’t negotiate the exit. He worked with the garbage the Trump admin handed him. I hypothesize we’d still be in Afghanistan if Trump were reelected for the same reason we were there for 20 years: it was so damn profitable.
Biden is not the president of Ukraine or Russia. There is a whole series of events beginning in 1991 when Ukraine declared Independence from Moscow that led to the Ukraine-Russian war. Did Putin take advantage of the election chaos in the U.S. in the timing of his invasion? Likely. Remind me again who attempted to prevent the peaceful transfer of power in January 2021.
Biden is not the president of Israel. Hamas has attacked Israel every year since 2001.
Trump was president from 2017 to 2020
In 2017, Hamas attacked Israel on February 6, 8, 20, 27, March 15, 18, April 10, May 23, June 26, July 23, 24, August 8, November 30, December 7, 8, 11, 12, 13, 15, 17, 21, 29.
In 2018, Hamas attacked Israel on January 1 and 3. February 2, 17, 18. May 29. June 3, 18, 20, 27. July 14. August 8. November 11 and 12.
In 2019, Hamas attacked Israel on March 14 and 25, May 4, June 12, September, and November 12.
In 2020, Hamas attacked Israel on May 5, June 15 and 26, July 5, August 2, 16 and 21, September 15, October 16 and 22, November 14 and 21. December 25.

The US has known Putin was aiming for Ukraine for years and increasingly so after they invaded Crimea in 2014. TRUMP’s actions weakened Ukraine, divided NATO and emboldened Putin. TRUMP took Russia’s side when Putin first invaded. When Putin invaded Crimea,Trump praised Putin at 2014’s CPAC for how he handled the takeover of Crimea and predicted that “the rest of Ukraine will fall … fairly quickly.”
Biden had to follow the plan TRUMP negotiated with terrorists in Afghanistan.
TRUMP’s Israeli ‘peace plan’ negotiations had zero Palestinians in attendance and was negotiated by his son in law with zero experience in foreign relations and financial interests in Israeli settlements in Palestinian lands.

1. The Afghanistan withdrawal was on a timeline agreement Trump brokered.
2. Trump would have disbanded NATO giving Putin what he really wanted.
3. Israel’s right wing government (again friendly to Trump) was too busy in the West Bank which led to the colosial security failure.

keep pandering Marky! It’s all you have! [….]

YOU ARE WORTHLESS!

Weak leadership. I couldn’t agree with you more. YOU are a weak leader. You pander to who you think will listen and you lie on a regular basis. You point fingers, bash our military, bash our CBP officers, and spend your time on the only thing you have ever known, which is TV.
You are spending the day before Thanksgiving trying to further divide the country. Something you do every day and then you try to come in on Sunday and play the little brotherly love, holier than thou routine.
Then you get on X yesterday and further embarrass yourself and our country. Do you think it makes you important to post this in a direct response to the President? Partly to blame? They had to educate Greene on how the legislation process works. Do you need the same lesson? You are in the legislative branch. You might read up on what you are responsible for in between TV segments and tapings of Mark Alford’s America videos.

Congressman Allwrong- Maybe if you keep making the case for the orange fascist dictator – as you do here – should he be elected, you’ll be rewarded with a plum.
Minister for Public Enlightenment and Propaganda, perhaps?

We’re thinking it could be director of a clown college.

The U.S. House of Representatives is not in session.

Today, from Mark Alford (r):

Congressman Mark Alford
[November 20, 2023]
The Senate is failing to do its job.
It has not passed emergency aid for Israel.
It has not taken up the individual appropriation bills the House has passed.
Why won’t the Senate move forward with the business of the American people and stand with Israel?
[….]

Some of the responses:

No one to blame for stalls but the House Republicans.
Ridiculous how you blame everyone but the the obvious guilty.
Way to distract from House mess.

Now tell us why, Mark.
The Israel bill doesn’t include funding for Ukraine. It also cuts funding to the IRS. You knew the bill would face opposition when it got to the Senate.
The individual appropriations bills all have contentious points in them. You knew the bills would face opposition when they got to the Senate.
Enough with the finger-pointing, Mark. Compromise. Find common ground. THAT’s your job.

That’s pretty hilarious coming from a Republican member of the House. If you are going to point fingers, start with yourself.

And you are on TV telling people that someone is not doing there job.

How long did it take House Republicans to even elect a new speaker?

Heh.

Congress must close the border impeach the Head of DHS and drastically cut spending ASAP. Period!

yeah, boy that border lol! [….]

Wait, wasn’t Mexico supposed to pay for a wall?

“The Senate is failing to do its job.” – Mark Alford In other news, the U.S. House is not in session for 12 days for the Thanksgiving Holiday. No irony there.

Well, 11 days, but we get your point.

Congressman Mark Alford actually it is on you and your House wackos! You know the right wing House wackos that you’re a member of? The Bill that you passed was crappy! You cut IRS funding for what? That reduces the chances that tax dodgers get caught and the last time I looked, we have less revenue coming in to the government! Why don’t you work with Johnson and get a comprehensive Bill passed, rather than the piecemeal garbage legislation that you tout? Oh, and is the humanitarian assistance that was left out a bad thing? You call yourself a Christian, but you’re obviously NOT!

Yesterday on social media, from Mark Alford (r):

Congressman Mark Alford
[November 15, 2023]
As I’m sure most of you know, last night, the House of Representatives voted on a continuing resolution that would extend current levels of federal funding through January and February.
While I do support our new Speaker of the House, Mike Johnson, I could not in good faith support this legislation.
[….]

There was much hilarity in the responses:

Your Party initiated the mess long before this extension.
You can’t govern when the Party in Majority can’t get their act together and get their job done!
Quit making excuses for your failing Party .
Once again, the Democrats come through for their Constituents.

again, not thinking this through, but you’re a college dropout and a former Faux Spews local anchor! That says it all. Your no vote would have delayed funds for Israel, delayed salaries for border employees, delayed salaries for FAA employees during Thanksgiving and on and on! Here’s a tip Marky! Raise the corporate tax rate and wealthy tax brackets to get more revenue into the system? Don’t you think lowering the corporate tax rate from 35% to 21% permanently wasn’t a smart move Marky?

Hey…

May I ask which programs you recommended cutting and by how much as part of your committee assignments (defense, agriculture, and small business)? The salami slice percentage funding cuts discussed as part of the continuing resolution process are the least effective way to cut budgets.

You mean roll back the Bush and Trump tax cuts for the rich?
We dont have a spending problem. We have a rich dont pay their taxes problem.

Wrong! Wrong! Wrong! If the Republicans would quit giving tax breaks to the wealthy, paying for wars on a credit card, putting tariffs on imports, and then bailing out farmers because the tariff war hurt the farmers’ income,
the deficit would be considerably smaller if not erased altogether.
But hey, let’s shut the government because of your party’s failures.

The GOP has put into spending bills amendments to reduce pay of 3 Biden Admin officials to $1.
All 3 are LGBT.
What next LGBT people will have to wear pink stars?

“…Man, that’s just mean. That’s mean, man.,,,”

Some sent you to congress to use common sense and to do what is beneficial to the country. You can’t just shut down the country as the world leader with two main wars going on and so many needs of our country. Please compromise and not side with the ultra right wing of the Republican Party. They, along with Trump are trying to destroy our country by lies, deceit, and false narrative that Democrats are socialist
I could hardly believe what I saw happen on January 6,2021. This just doesn’t happen in USA, I thought.

Partisan Hack. Missouri deserves better.

So let me get this straight. The GOP got rid of their Speaker, Kevin McCarthy, because he dared push through a continuing resolution on the budget with the help of mostly Democrats. So after cycling through four possible other leaders, they pick a guy with zero experience and tons of skeletons, who then proposes and pushes through…a continuing resolution on the budget with the help of mostly Democrats. Genius.

the first thing that should be done is to pass the bill to tax the extremely wealthy so that they pay their fair share. Then vote against defunding the IRS so that they can continue to collect money from the tax cheats. The finding for the IRS pays for itself 3 fold!

So you favor unpaid border patrol agents?

just look at how your republican party is functioning together. They act like morons fighting each other.

Tell us you don’t understand math and honoring commitments without telling us.
How much debt was run up and remains due and payable from trump, tax cuts and losses incurred because of a poor response to a pandemic? How much time have republicans wasted by Not putting forth an Immigration policy overhaul? How much will continue to rack up at increased interests because of republicans infighting, kidney punching, go no where investigations, loss of Military advancements because of one wacko, and costly repairs to diplomatic relationships and busted trade agreements by trump and republicans?

On Monday, from Mark Alford (r):

Congressman Mark Alford
November 13 at 4:20 PM
We were so excited to be back in Raymore today for Mondays with Mark. We are always happy to discuss the things that matter most to you!
[….]

There was much hilarity in the responses:

How about talking about Trump’s Nazi rhetoric?

Rump doesn’t respect the military. Why do you support him Mark?

Congressman Mark Alford maybe next Monday you can talk about how Jenna Ellis just cooked your idol Don the Con’s goose? How about you getting spending bills passed? [….]

How bout you go back to work and pass a spending bill

Alford voted against it. [….]

Chalk one up for chaos.

Did any of your visitors have a budget proposal for you, perhaps? Someone needs to do the work and it doesn’t appear as though you’re the right person for the job.

maybe next time, y’all can elect someone who knows how to prepare an actual budget and not risk a government shut down?

Rescinding the Trump tax cuts for the wealthy and corporations and clawing back PPP funds (or at least making them taxable) would be good first steps to balancing the budget.

So Alford demonstrates how he is working for 4th District constituents by waving around the letter he wrote to FEMA regarding hospital reimbursements and follows it up by voting against the CR that would fund the FEMA payroll for the FEMA workers who would process the reimbursements.
A real smart feller!

you were one of the 95 that would rather see the Government have a shutdown right before Thanksgiving? 336 voted to pass the stopgap bill, but you’d rather side with Boebert, Gaetz, Greene and other wackos? Even Scalise and your recent guest Scott voted in favor of the bill! You’re a disgrace to the US Congress! [….]

This shows just how incompetent our representative is. Encountered means the CBP is doing their job. Alford’s continual bashing of our CBP agents is unacceptable. These agents put their lives on the line every day while Mark Alford posts on Twitter and Facebook , does TV, radio, and his little YouTube shows. The Govt shuts down the 17th and this is what our tax dollars is doing. Notice his little repost of him getting thanked for doing more media BS.

You forgot to mention his letters.

of course. How could I forget the strongly worded letters!!

That paper is sharp! The way he waves it around with such fury and flourish, someone’s gonna get a paper cut from it!

Did you see any “Vermin” there? Are Vermin allowed to voice their opinion? How do you feel about the rhetoric spurting out if it’s mouth?

Trump is literally quoting Hitler and Mark Alford remains silent.

Maybe Alford could write a letter.

There you go.

Mark Alford (r) posted on social media on Sunday, people responded:

“The American fascists are most easily recognized by their deliberate perversion of truth and fact. Their newspapers and propaganda carefully cultivate every fissure of disunity .…They claim to be super-patriots, but they would destroy every liberty guaranteed by the Constitution. They demand free enterprise, but are the spokesmen for monopoly and vested interest. Their final objective toward which all their deceit is directed is to capture political power so that, using the power of the state and the power of the market simultaneously, they may keep the common man in eternal subjection.”
Vice President Henry A. Wallace, April 9, 1944.

“When fascism comes to America, it will be wrapped in the flag and carrying a cross”….scholars aren’t sure who actually said this, but the words ring true.

And yet you have fealty to the most unChristlike individual in American political history.

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

Yep.

Matthew 6:1: “Beware of practicing your righteousness before men to be noticed by them.”

Titus1:11 “They must be silenced , because they are distrusting whole households by things they ought not to teach- and that the sake for dishonest gain”….Mark quit your obvious exploitative actions of religion! Pathetic

Mark, you and the rest of the Christofascists don’t even follow the teachings of Christ.

Jesus would weep, or better yet, flip tables and toss you and all trumpers on your ears if he suddenly appeared. Your desire to cut SNAP in the stalled Farm Bill is not, “feeding the hungry.” Your words and actions towards those wanting a better life is not “welcoming the traveler.” Your desire to cut Social Security is not “caring for the least of these.” Your worship of trump is “idolatry.” In fact you and your fellow repubs are more like judas, selling your soul and our Country for few bits of coin.

“For 30 pieces of silver he cast his soul away.”

“I like your Christ, I do not like your Christians. Your Christians are so unlike your Christ.”
― Mahatma Gandhi

Probably not attributable to Ghandi.

Pushing your religion, your TV shows, your radio, and your hate for anything or anyone that doesn’t line up with what personally believe or are told to believe is another disgusting example of what is wrong with the country. You were elected to do a job and you have failed miserably. The Govt is due to shut down again on the 17th and you are on twitter and Facebook with this mess, your empty airports, your blatant lies about our border, and of course, pushing your Mark Alford’s America podcast stupidity. Throw in your constant posts from you, reading some canned BS on some BS tv show and we have you all wrapped up. You know how to look into a camera and read. You know nothing else.

Mark Alford apparently thinks he has nothing better to do. Yesterday:

[image cropped]

Congressman Mark Alford
[November 10, 2023]
Hey folks, welcome back! Our Capitol Recap is in full swing, and I want to update you on the important work happening in DC.
In DC, and in the district, we’ve been working hard for the people of Missouri’s fourth district.
[….]

Some of the responses:

So, we are one week from a government shutdown & you know where “Speaker” Mike Johnson is right now? PARIS, FRANCE. That’s right. He’s abroad to headline a far-right global conference, instead of working on a bill that would fund our government. The @GOP could not care less about this country and is incapable of governing.

[….] Just keep the misinformation stream coming, Mark.

One week from shutting down the government and you are tooting your horn? You should all be forced to sit in your seats until you put together a plan that will pass the Senate. How dare you do anything else until then. Active duty military will go without pay, federal workers will go without pay. Our Nation’s debts and commitments will go unpaid.
All while you continue to snag a paycheck, for doing nothing.

Well, he did make this video.

The new Speaker of the House isn’t even in the U.S. He’s off speaking at a convention in Paris. It’s apparent this group isn’t capable of doing the job they were elected to. Do they even understand what that job is?

no, they don’t.

Important work, like your 3-day weekend with government funding set to expire in 6 days? Just how many of those appropriations bills have passed Congress and been signed into law? We need results, not bombastic rhetoric.

actually it’s a 4 day weekend !

Have yet to see anything you’ve actually done for this state or this district. Except spew nonsense on faux “news” channrls.

Defund the FBI and the CIA

that would please the criminals and terrorists, and repubs.

Putin loves you

So I’ve listened to your most recent BS, and like others have asked, “what are you and your fellow Republicans actually doing? Your recent video is filled with empty double speak.
Instead of passing asinine bills that you know the Senate won’t approve, why not finishing the Budget Bill McCarthy had approved back in May? You and the House majority need to quit grandstanding, and do actual work for the People and the Country.
Also, why are the House Republicans so out of step with the Senate, and most Americans?
You have yet to give honest answers to my questions, here, in emails, and through your Aides in DC. I’m sure I am not alone.

MARK thank you for the information and we MUST stay out of ISRAEL business and let them finish the war without OBIDENS interference. No one ever pays and when no one pays what’s the point of it all

Same planet, different worlds.

Yesterday:

Congressman Mark Alford
[November 4, 2023]
While the world is watching the situation in Israel play out, our own southern border is wide open.
Since Joe Biden took office, hundreds of individuals on the terror watchlist have been encountered at our border.
That leads me to ask:
1. How many made it through?
2. Where are they now?
3. How many have ties to Hamas or Hezbollah?
We aren’t the only ones with these questions. Last week, Senator Schmitt and I led 22 of our House and Senate colleagues in a letter demanding to know how the conflict in the Middle East would affect our homeland.
For the entirety of this Administration’s tenure, we have operated with our guard down. We cannot allow that to continue.
We need answers before it is too late.

Because someone will take hostages somewhere in the Southwest and take them where?

Some of the responses:

According to the Representative, our southern border is wide open. His solution, sponsoring legislation “Combatting the Persecution of Religious Groups in China Act.” Another Alford bill with no cosponsors. Maybe spending more time on solving issues in the United States, and less time on tv and the internet, would be in order.

The border is not wide open, despite your repeated claim that it is.
Congress can can enact immigration reform. You should do your job and get on that.

Then do something. Put forth a bill, fund for additional border patrol, simplify immigration. Add immigration attorneys. Or keep doing what you always do, whine and blame others.

I guess you didn’t notice Israel’s wall didn’t work, oh and Trump’s buddy is in charge there. Also indicted on corruption funny enough.

” Blaming Biden” is not a constructive solution! How about you introducing legislation to resolve issues ? Missouri deserves better!

Fear mongering last week. Fear mongering this week. How does this help our country?

You are an absolute LIAR and should be expelled immediately. You are an elected official and you are telling the world our border is officially open. You are a reckless traitor. You talk about your big bad letters when you are not on TV, radio, or YouTube spewing your pandering line of party BS. You and your staffs salaries would be better used to assist the CBP agents you trash consistently. What is even more pathetic is the fact that you try and use religion to make yourself look like a righteous person. The stupid may believe you, but anyone with half a brain knows you are no better than Boebert, Gaetz, and Greene. You are a radical in hiding.

Congressman Mark Alford why not post your ridiculous letter that you sent with Senator Eric Schmitt? You both blither about China and of course don’t mention Russia! Do you seriously believe that the Federal Government is doing nothing to safeguard the US from terrorism? Also, why wasn’t that wall built that Mexico was going to pay for? You do nothing, but grandstand! [….]

That’s the way it is, isn’t it?

Mark Alford (r) [2023 file photo].

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.
