Hey, Mark (r), you can’t hold open public town halls for your Missouri constituents in Florida.

I was with the President Friday night and I can assure you he is resolute and focused on doing the things necessary to save this great nation from the destruction of enemies, both foreign and domestic.
We all know what this is…it’s political persecution from a Soros-funded hack and proof they are scared.
Would they be doing this if Trump wasn’t running in 2024? I can almost guarantee you they wouldn’t be. It’s clear they’ll dig everything up — dating back to past parking tickets to try to disqualify him!!!

Ah, moral relativism.
“…Soros-funded…”
Well, that was a loud dog whistle.
Some of the responses:
Congressman, this is sad picture. If you think giving two thumbs up to next to someone who has subverted democracy, lived his entire life on the fringes of fraud and is devoid of moral decency then you’ve fallen farther from servant discipleship than I could’ve imagined.
Uh, Mark Alford (r) was already there.
President of the spray tan club?
Why don’t you try representing Missouri.
Former president, also ew.
Two losers, congratulations.
Well we in KC all knew what mark was really like. So glad you’re off of tv but sad you’re in office and a trumper. Bad all around.
Not the flex you think it is.
Here’s a novel idea … Go work for all your constituents and not just your conservative base. We all deserve better than this.
Careful who’s side you take. The former guy will turn on you. You’re liable to get what you deserve!
Lock him up!
Just had to add the #JewishBoogeyman, didn’t you, you pathetic little sycophant?
Mark. [….] what the hell are you doing man.
He’s always known.
Oh brother. Such an embarrassment for KC…. I’m surprised you were able to post this with your lips on his ass.
Anyone who believes your delusional brainwashed B.S. needs to get counseling
Bad combover. Check. Too long red tie. Check. Orange spray tan. Check. Tiny hands. Check. Cluelessness. Check…
Are you in the district, Mark? Florida? Just asking.

Thanks so much for attending we attempt to inspire people to greatness and make Americans great again!!! 11:06 AM · Mar 16, 2023
Any open public town halls in the district? Where? When?
Yesterday, from Mark Alford (r), privileged traveler:
Mark Alford @markalfordkc
Thanks Mayor Pete!!! Sitting on SW flight at KCI. Was supposed to leave at 2, then 4, then 6, then 9pm, now back to 4! Turns out shortages at the air traffic control in Florida is causing unwarranted confusion. The Captain is now late because HE didn’t even know what time to be here. The “Peter Principal” is alive and well!!! @SouthwestAir @PeteButtigieg

A single exclamation mark will do, Mark (r).
The International Air Transportation Association (IATA) lists MCI as the airport’s designator code. But, you already knew that, didn’t you?
Some of the responses:
what a lazy and weak politician.
sees problems and points fingers instead of looking for solutions.
Mark Alford (r) responds in turn:
Mark Alford @markalfordkc
[….]
Here’s the solution: Fire Mayor Pete and get a new Secretary of transportation 4:55 PM · Mar 12, 2023
He’s stupid and he’s twelve years old. That’ll work in the republican House majority.
More responses:
how about practical solutions Representative Alford?
your elected position doesn’t involve appointing DOT exec, but you ARE empowered to legislate.
what legislative solutions are available Representative Alford?
That makes it better how?
Will the next one have the budget to hire and train more controllers? But new equipment?
Maybe since the ATC shortage is in FL, we fire DeSantis? That makes as much sense as firing the Transportation Secretary who does not personally hire Air Traffic Controllers either. [….]
That may give you an orgasm but it won’t solve the controller problems.
What a lame response! Just shows your lack of depth.
Nope. Not a solution. That’s finger-pointing for clicks and likes. Disappointed (but not surprised) you don’t know the difference. And btw, if you understand the difference but post anyway, that doesn’t make you clever.
It just makes him a stupid and petulant twelve-year-old.
How about you bought GQPers stop deregulation.
So just tear down what you don’t like…. Got it. That’s good leadership.
What have you done that’s constructive? Nothing.
How will that fix your delay?
Because flight delays are a new thing?? LOL you’re a joke.
Cabinet Secretaries are in charge of staffing? Perhaps all the Florida politicians are responsible? Odd that GOP lawmakers can’t be taken seriously. All theater, no governing.
Maybe when you get back to DC, you could go into your office and respond to the many emails, letters, phone calls and other inquiries that have been sent from your constituents in the 4th district of Missouri. You are failing to respond to your constituents!
I live in your district and yet haven’t seen anything you have done besides follow along with no direction. Where is better health care your party has promised? Why are you all against everybody paying social security on all there income like I had all the years I worked.
You are an ass. Shut up.
You have the emotional intelligence of a fucking 5-year-old.
I figured a twelve-year-old, but okay.
Man, no reason to think Southwest could have played any role in this based on our evidence…100% some politician’s fault. gotta be.
if you think southwest is giving you the full story, you’re somehow dumber than your twitter profile makes you look.
Ding, ding, ding! We have a winner.
You’re sure a disappointment! And I didn’t expect much.
Florida? Isn’t this a DeSantis problem then?
GFY Alford.
Could someone bring Mark his coffee?
You’re just as whiny and negative as you were on the local news. What an embarrassment you are to Missouri.
And your background is . . . reading the news [….]
What is it with short men and chips on their shoulders? You left being an eye-rolling performative morning news presenter to be a useless performative politician.
Exactly what did Mayor Pete do to cause this problem?
You are a literal joke. It doesn’t take any type of skill to simply repeat the same tired talking points as every other GOP politician.
Of course you spent your life reading off a teleprompter so why am I surprised.
MAGA is just about bitching and whining. Nothing more, nothing less. Snowflakes with no solutions
Jhc, stop your whining & bitching. I’d be more concerned that your Captain doesn’t know when to be at work, that’s the airlines fault.
So the pilot not checking is scheduled is the Secretary of transportation’s fault? Are you really that stupid? Does it hurt being that stupid?
Are you part of the problem, the solution, or just a total dumb ass? I think we all know. Even the few that liked you on tv.
Is it that some action, or inaction by Buttigieg/DOT is responsible in any way shape or form for this particular flight delay? OR is it that maybe, just maybe, Southwest is just a bad airline which is constantly plagued by delays? You’re such an infantile pillock.
Mark, I really appreciate you making more people aware of just how much of an asshole you are. Propose a solution, dipshit.
Constituent services. It’s all about responding to constituents and outreach.

Are you ever going to respond to your contituents’ email to your office?
4:52 PM · Mar 10, 2023
An open public town hall in the district is never going to happen. It would be too much of a challenge to the prevailing right wingnut conventional wisdom.
Mark Alford @markalfordkc
Count me among those who think @POTUS has been an utter failure. A divider not a Uniter. A Trojan horse for the radical, woke and broke wing of the Democrat party. The “Marionette” President. Someone else is pulling the strings.
[….] 6:46 PM · Mar 2, 2023
Evidently Mark Alford (r) doesn’t understand the difference between a noun and an adjective. That’s really sad for someone who was once a newsreader.
“Marionette” – for right wingnut republicans every accusation is actually a confession.
Some of the responses:
Woke this Woke that…. WTF does Woke mean? Spell it.
What is your definition of “woke”? Would you please tell us how Trump tried to unite us? Is Trump’s denial of the results of the 2020 election an example of a “uniter”?
You said you were going to DC to change it. Well you are DC. Performative politics. Partisanship politics. Pandering politics. Are you going to be like this for all of your 2 years?
Yes. This has been another edition of Short Answers to Simple Questions.
Half of Missouri also can’t tie their own shoes so…
Dude you’re turning more into a clown day by day it’s sad.
Turning?
Your words are so uniting. #moreofthesame
Someone is pulling your strings or like typical puppets has their hand jammed up your arse.
Former newsreader has previous experience.
Stick to “we will be right back after this word from Price Chopper”. You are an embarrassment
Heh. We’ll never get tired of this one.
You are batshit crazy, Mark. Divider? That is all your orange guy you cuck for does for his own gain. Your party (and my old one) doe nothing now but dog whistle and lie (see everything about Fox News). You are simply blowing the same dog whistle. No action. Just rhetoric.
Well you’re a fucking idiot so there’s that. @POTUS is doing fine.

ICYMI: A clean debt ceiling increase is a gift to communist China.
Read my OPED with @repkevinhern explaining how the national debt is a massive security concern
[….] 11:11 AM · Feb 23, 2023
Still with the balloon. You know it was shot down, no one was hurt, and we have the pieces and parts, right?
Is it the hat? The stellar career as a newsreader on a morning show? Just asking.
An open public town hall in the district would be epic.
Some of the responses:
Repeal the unwise tax cuts for billionaires trump put in place .
Who writes op-ed in all uppercase like a monster?
We have no idea.
Cut the crap, if you know how to fix budget deficit come up with a proposal on where the cuts can be made. If not, not raising the debt ceiling would be the greatest gift to China, ruining $ status as global reserve currency that gave us the advantage of not borrowing yuan
Go to bed Mark. This is way above your level of comprehension. Stick to, “we will be back after this word from Price Chopper.”
A small, globe-trotting balloon declared “missing in action” by an Illinois-based hobbyist club on Feb. 15 has emerged as a candidate to explain one of the three mystery objects shot down by four heat-seeking missiles launched by U.S. Air Force fighters since Feb. 10.
[….]
“I’m guessing probably they were pico balloons,” said Tom Medlin, a retired FedEx engineer and co-host of the Amateur Radio Roundtable show. Medlin has three pico balloons in flight in the Northern and Southern hemispheres.
[….]
Launching high-altitude, circumnavigational pico balloons has emerged only within the past decade. [….]it was possible to calculate the amount of helium gas necessary to make a common latex balloon neutrally buoyant at altitudes above 43,000 ft. The balloons carry an 11-gram tracker on a tether, along with HF and VHF/UHF antennas to update their positions to ham radio receivers around the world. At any given moment, several dozen such balloons are aloft, with some circling the globe several times before they malfunction or fail for other reasons. The launch teams seldom recover their balloons.
[….]
In fact, the pico balloons weigh less than 6 lb. and therefore are exempt from most FAA airspace restrictions…

We need to identify UAPs sooner and act swiftly to remove any UAP that threatens our airspace and sovereignty before it flies over U.S. soil, not after.

You’re right!!! America is asleep alright!!! Wake up…the wolf is at the door! 8:49 PM · Feb 17, 2023
BS Li’l Marky. The big bad wolf [….]?
You are wrong Mark. TFG was the one asleep. They were flying over the US and the orange gut was golfing.
Give it a rest, Mark (r). Your balloon envy is tiresome.
Why don’t you SHUT UP and stop embarrassing MO-4. You have NO EXPERTISE and your only claim is to have been a morning local news hack on FOX 4 News (bantering on flowers, traffic and food if that is news)
Once again @RepMarkAlford wandered onto the House floor to listen to himself talk. He feels that he is more competent than the President who has served as a leader in this country for 44 years while Mark was an anchor on a morning TV show with low ratings in a small market.
Dunning-Krueger Effect.
Blah blah blah you blowhard. Stop thinking youre more important than you really are.
So many angry Liberals in this thread. Mark, and his thought process and true Conservatism (not MAGA) is what we need in the Republican party.
I don’t live in his district but I am closely watching his work and supporting his mission.
Heh. “…don’t live in his district…”
You are full of hot air.
Helium would be funnier.
You don’t have a clue
Until you denounce this trash, you are no better

The Chinese Communist Party and their invasion of U.S. Airspace is the most critical national security threat facing our nation today.
Dude, it was a balloon. It was brought down. We’re getting all the parts. What did the former guy do?
Some of the responses:
[….] I’d go with the active proxy war being waged with Russia. But yeah the balloon hurt my feelings.
Mark, your judgement is flawed-never served in the military-new to congress-your experience is very limitedas anchor on a early morning TV-be aware that you are not in any way qualified to ID national security threats – listen more – TALK & TWEET LESS
Yeah, nope.
You are an unserious [….] clown who needs to find a new grift
There are words for what you did on the House floor.
Bloviating
Grandstanding
MAGA Domestic Terrorists in Congress is the greatest danger.
Risky and Reckless.
@RepMarkAlford mistakes Chinese Ballon as most critical threat. He fails to recognize that failing to support increasing the debt limit will wipe out American families – wants to raise tft one left a markaxes on the middle class again & destroy Social Security, Medicare & Medicaid.
A balloon is the most critical national security threat? You’re no better at this job than the last one
