Yesterday:

Congressman Mark Alford
[July 24, 2025]
Zohran Mamdani’s pushing government-run groceries and free bus fares?!
Total FAILURE. We saw firsthand how Kansas City tried it—& it cost millions PLUS crime shot up. M0-04 and America deserve better than these socialist flops.
[….]

Some of the responses:

ICYMI – KCMO is NOT THE SAME as NYC. They can decide how they want their city to be run whether busybodies like you “like” it or not. NUNYA. And you sure don’t mind YOUR socialist paycheck and healthcare and a whole truckload of perks, so you might wanna STFU about ‘socialism doesn’t work’.

Waste of money and time in Kansas City.

free bus fares are a game changer for the urban poor to get to jobs. In many big cities a 30 day bus pass costs over $100.
Not every one has a car.
Think about how others live especially in urban areas.

KC isn’t that big. No need. And it was a waste of money.

Michael Bersin
[….] Kansas City, Missouri is the 25th largest city in land area (314.5 square miles) in the United States – larger than New York City, Chicago, New Orleans, Denver, Las Vegas, Philadelphia, Tampa, Salt Lake City, Milwaukee, Memphis, Tucson, Seattle, and Orlando.

BTW at my work we would have a hard time filling warehouse jobs if people had to pay to take the bus which is around $100 a month?

The fact that you are opposing him tells me you are afraid of him.

The entire GOP is scared shitle$$ of Mamdani.

All of America should be concerned of the influence people like mamdani have over Americans. His ideals ARE NOT American ideals.

is that Alford is focusing on? Instead of his own district? Or is this a distraction from the shit Trump is stepping in?

even more importantly trumpism does not work in America.

Why do we care? Missouri is going to loose healthcare and the schools are missing millions of dollars the federal government promised them. Let’s talk about that.

And what are you doing for the people of Missouri. Our insurance premiums are going to go up because of you. You’ve taken away federal education funding from Missouri. What are you been there for? Find a different job. This one’s not for you.

Mark Alford is an embarrassment to the state of Missouri.

many of our elected officials in Missouri are embarrassing.

Not even in your district. Stay in your lane.

Mark Alford does not speak for Missourians, nor does he work for the good of the 4th District.

Why don’t you focus on helping your constituents?

It might be a great idea for you to stop focusing on the national politics and focus on your district.

Actually, a mayoral candidate in another region of the country.

And now you deflect what is going on with your political party, by giving us your opinion about what is happening in New York City? Nice try Mark, but I won’t be distracted. 🙄

And what have you done for YOUR district? Other than do your best to deny them food and medical care ?

Epstein files

That’s New York. This is Missouri…not your area of representation. By the way, I thought South Park’s political satire of the felon-in-chief was hilarious. Are you and other MAGAts about to lose your minds?

Why are you concerned about this? Not your state! Leave New York alone.

Why don’t you schedule an announced town hall you coward?

Neither does fascism

He posted about a mayoral candidate in New York City. Not his concern. He’s only pushing red meat as part of the GOP distraction.

He’s running for mayor of NYC, Mark. Are you scared of his platform?
What solutions have you brought for food insecurity? What solutions do you have to increase public transportation?

Why are you commenting on a Mayor’s race in another state. We have plenty to worry about here in MO and nationally. This stinks.

Who GAF about a candidate for mayor in NYC

But giving billions to the top 1 percent works.

Heh.

Just imagine this clown presuming to tell New Yorkers ANYTHING!🤣🤣

Weak Sauce

So, wtf does the New York mayor race have to do with this gross fkr’s district in Missouri??

Broadway musicals? Just a guess.

I bet Epstein and Trump never had to worry about where their next meal was coming from. Or Alford for that matter.

What the fuck does this have do with Missouri???

How many areas in YOUR district have no public transportation or no grocery stores within a 5 mile radius?
How about talking about problems your RURAL district faces?

Why don’t you focus on your Missouri constituents? You threw them under the bus with the Big Beautiful Bill and now you are deflecting from the Epstein files. Enjoy your extra long vacation while Missourians can’t even get paid sick leave because Republicans ignored the voters.

Are you afraid of socialism? Is all that social security and Medicare and Medicaid and tax payer funded infrastructure, and your tax payer funded salary really getting you down?
Because the unrestrained capitalism in this country is KILLING most of the rest of us.
Get a grip.

Is this what you’re worrying about on your tax-paid vacation, Mark? Nothing to do with your constituents, of course, just blubbering. How about a cognitive response from you, that isn’t scripted by the orange man and can help the people in your district. So far, you voted to take money away from: school districts, rural hospitals, SNAP and Medicaid funding, so the wealthy can get a big tax break. All because you voted as Trump told you how to vote. When you go back to work, how will you vote on the Epstein release? Will you try to undo some of the destruction you caused your constituents when you voted for everything in the “big, b… bill”? Or will you continue to cower in DC?

Look who’s talking. A bootlicking fascist.

What a fu*king ass hole you are. I hope someone in your family needs help someday and your dumb a** is the reason it’s not there. Such an evil POS

Which part of NEW YORK CITY is in your district?
Learn how to read a map

There’s that.

Let’s see where the least educated live. Circle on the map where your trailer park is. You can ask a teacher for help.

Mark sure hates helping poor people. You are a disgrace.

Congressman Mark Alford
Nope.
This isn’t an issue & you don’t represent KCMO regardless!
Now…about those Epstein files?

What an asshole!

Piss off
