As usual.

Yesterday:

Congressman Mark Alford
[December 15, 2023]
Earlier this week, President Zelenskyy was in Washington asking for more money.
I’ve said it once, and I’ll say it again — we cannot allocate any more money until two things happen.
1. We need strategic clarity. What does victory look like?
2. More funding for our own border.
[….]

Some of the responses:

Your “questions” are stupid and have been answered multiple times. Border funding is a DOMESTIC issue – I guess if you’re GQP, your own “clean bill” BS doesn’t apply to YOU. Tearing down is easy – any fool can do it. Putin has your number.

Mark’s probably getting campaign cash through the RNC from Putin.

Mark Alford pushing has to make a stand and it’s either with Ukraine or Putin
He knows who he’s helping by acting like this and that may be the point

that’s the Neville Chamberlain head in the sand stand down plan to appease a dictator
Didn’t work out well historically

Why you support Putin and insult our Military?

When will the House GOP investigate Congressman Comer’s million dollar shell company that he forgot to report on? That violates House rules.

Maga mark is a joke

The ex fox tv morning show host laying down his expertise and judgement. Now that he has opened his mouth, he has to prove it. When he can’t, he should be removed immediately. Alford also likes to place people is historical record books. I would say it is safe to say, Alford has made himself the most embarrassing thing to ever come out of area 4 in Missouri. A complete do nothing, finger pointing, pandering, hide in small coffee shop, literally do a TV style show called “Mark Alford’s America (not Missouri, not ours, but Mark Alford’s), and spend the rest of his time on social media, Fox, Newsmax, and what ever else would let him read from a teleprompter. He uses little woke slogans, bullies CBP agents, mocks the military, and wants to form everything around HIS specific religious believes, which he pushes down everyone’s throat. I understand the “party people” that can’t think on their own, or who have to have someone else to blame will say Alford is doing great. They have to. But when they go to bed at night, or slip up and think on their own about what Alford has and has not done, they are going to be embarrassed, just like so many other Missourians.

And I thought Vicky was bad [….]

Dear Santa, Please bring us a Representative who is smart enough to spell words as simple as “yea” and “Reagan”.

please explain how and why YOU are against working on the current Budget, funding for Ukraine? What legitimate and solid ideas do YOU have, and proposed for INCREASED border security? Just holding out for more funds and whatever else you seek that’s not border security related.
If YOU are NOT part of the solution,
then YOU are the PROBLEM.

where’s that missing file Marky? [….]

The mystery of the missing binder: How a collection of raw Russian intelligence disappeared under Trump [December 15, 2023]

Maybe investigate that?

With your destructive ultra right/ Trump views, there is no way I will vote for you. I love my country too much.

We can allocate money to Ukraine and should, as soon as possible.

I received a mailer from you last week saying how Biden was failing our allies. You have also repeatedly stated that there should only be single topic bills yet you explicitly link non-related items by demanding the border security issues be dealt with before supporting an allied nation fighting for its very existence. I never thought I would see the day where the Republican Party openly supported actions enabling Russian aggression. Your positions directly threaten the western alliances that we have painstakingly built since WWII and paid for with the lives of thousands of Americans.

our taxes paid for him to send that crap out too.

Why isn’t your name on this list of representatives who voted against warrantless surveillance of American citizens this morning?

Mark, I have a suggestion for you. Apply the strategic clarity concept to the border. After doing that, does Ukraine have anything to do with the US border? I thought so.

Mark (and others) have bought into “…the big, beautiful plans and programs…” Trump has. They have drank so much of the Kool-Aid they are his Trolls.

So you are attaching border funding to Ukraine funding? Weren’t you just complaining about that a couple of weeks ago? I guess it doesn’t count when it’s you and not a Democrat. Hypocrite.

another putz comment from the Trump Putin lover! You’re a disgrace to the US Congress!

Mr. Alford – Do you understand that by his own choice, Putin is an enemy of the US and is waging an asymmetrical war against us, and that the war in Ukraine is just a part of his strategy?
If you abandon an ally now, you position the US as an unreliable partner when it comes time to help Guyana, Taiwan, Western Europe, or any other target of aggression. That gives Putin and Xi more influence, not less.
So perhaps you’d like to tell us what YOUR strategic objective is as it relates to Ukraine? And Russia. And China.
Because for all the posturing and puffing, as it relates to Putin and Xi you appear either a strutting peacock, a pandering fool, or a complicit cooperator. Which is it?

Al the above!
Alford like most other Republicans, especially Trump are ignorant and don’t care. They don’t see, let alone understand the big picture, world politics nor the global economy.

Say hello to Cleta Mitchell and Leonard Leo next time you collect for your participation in this b.s.

They’re not impressed. At all.
