C-SPAN caller from Missouri to Missouri Rep. Mark Alford: "I hope you, sir, as an elected official, will think of the people who are in nursing homes, their parents are in nursing homes, their Medicaid is going to be cut. What is going to happen to Missourians whose hospitals are gonna close?"

Alford: too bad so sad, do not give a fuck.
That’s his real answer

Independent C-SPAN caller to Rep. Mark Alford: "You're taking credit for $50b that you just gave to the hospital industry. That's after you took away $150b. You don't take credit for just giving back a little bit of money after taking away so much. So quit lying. It just makes you look horrible."

It’s hard to award the Nobel Peace Prize to a guy that maybe brokered a temporary peace deal after he ordered 500 tons of nutrient rich biscuits destroyed instead of saving the lives of desperate, starving babies.

Why are %lawmakers getting paid? If they were MISSING PAYCHECKS & perks as the other FEDERALLY EMPLOYED, maybe they’d get off of their collective asses and get to WORK.

ESSENTIALLY #TAXPAYERS ARE PAYING THESE GREEDY FUCKS TO OBSTRUCT DEMOCRACY AND SIT ON THEIR ASS.

The shutdown is entering its second week. Federal workers are about to begin missing paychecks.

But lawmakers are not on the same page.

Federal immigration officers wear masks, no name tags — now some drive cars without license plates

The Sun-Times has documented four unmarked cars carrying federal officers without required plates, offering another way to shield their identities. Federal officials say they’re meeting regulations.

If you rename the Department of Defense the Department of War, then bomb fishing boats in the Caribbean, and shoot an unarmed priest in the head with a pepper bullet, you should automatically be barred from receiving the Nobel Peace Prize for the rest of your life.

The homeowner saw on the security camera that a bear was playing on the outdoor swing every day, but couldn't get on.
So he had a bigger swing built, and this was the result.😎🤣💙☺️

Will Netanyahu torpedo the ‘Gaza peace plan’ sooner rather than later?

Here’s Noam Chomsky explaining the cyclical pattern of Israel reaching a ceasefire with Hamas, and then openly breaking the ceasefire and resuming the slaughter.

📌Trump wasn’t awarded the Nobel Peace Prize because he’s a lying, racist, America-attacking slob, and woman-abusing convicted felon, who is covering up his involvement in a gang of child rapists.

Hope this clears up any confusion.
