We heard something like that, too. To paraphrase:

[….] shouting [….] a policeman ran in [….] no punches were thrown [….]

Heh.

Pass the popcorn.

Indeed.

Math is hard, proportional representation is evil, Missouri voters are stupid (February 4, 2020)

Math is hard – “…yup I’m from Missouri yup…” (February 5, 2022)

Someone doth protest too much methinks:

Governor Mike Parson @GovParsonMO
Rudi Keller, a blogger for the Missouri Independent, wrote a purposefully misleading article titled “Missouri Health Department found Mask Mandates Work, but Didn’t Make Findings Public.” He handpicked information from a Sunshine request then took the data out of context. (1/12)

Please proceed, Governor.

“Missouri Health Department found Mask Mandates Work, but Didn’t Make Findings Public.” Thanks for reminding us.

Your communications staff also needs to learn that one of the differences between a journalist and a blogger is that a blogger can and will retort, “Kiss my ass.”

Tony Messenger @tonymess
Let’s be clear about something: @RudiKellerMI is one of the best journalists in Missouri. Has been for at least two decades.

One view of the utility of higher education:

RudiKeller031016

Rudi Keller ‏@CDTCivilWar
Rep. Eggleston: #Mizzou is ‘there to instill the occupational skills and knowledge to enable our children to get a job. That’s it’ #moleg 11:47 AM – 10 Mar 2016

That explains a lot, though probably not what Representative Eggleston (r) thinks it does.

Critical thinking skills are apparently not a priority for some people.

Can you major in cubicle dwelling? Worker drone studies?

We await the instructions of our corporate overlords.
