And yet his constituents keep voting for him. They are part of the problem.

benthetipsybear.bsky.social•23 days ago

Kelly is a cowardly weasel.

careynesmithmd.bsky.social•22 days ago

What Dem or Indivisible rep is going to pinch hit for the no show?

gohike.bsky.social•23 days ago

When you keep re-electing do-nothing's to Congress, don't expect them to give a sh*t about you. They've grown too fat and lazy to care. They just wait for the next election cycle for the old "rinse & repeat" and then collect their next paycheck.

brettmccabe.bsky.social•23 days ago

And yet, he’s held office for years. Maybe he’s not the problem.

nici17.bsky.social•23 days ago

He is enjoying the ride but forgetting who gave him the ride. .

laurabreathing.bsky.social•23 days ago

Then why do they keep voting for him?

dapperd.bsky.social•23 days ago

They keep voting for him so why would he.

1bigdog.bsky.social•23 days ago

No constituent-representative interaction and, yet, he still gets elected. Why? Because he has an (R) after his name.

impulse-buyer.bsky.social•23 days ago

This guy sounds like a real sleaze-ball after reading the article.

zajjman.bsky.social•23 days ago

Oh, they hear it, they just don't care.

nevergonnakneel.bsky.social•23 days ago

Maybe he’s dead

txlarryb.bsky.social•23 days ago

Coward.

bangkokian53.bsky.social•23 days ago

He hasn’t held a town hall in years and they keep electing him? People who vote for him are either dumb or clueless.

catlady49ers.bsky.social•23 days ago

Not holding a town hall is dereliction of duty. He should be impeached!

kathmandu513.gobirds.online•23 days ago

Good luck with that. Pat Toomey got away with NEVER hosting a townhall.

kathy328.bsky.social•23 days ago

The night of the “assassination” attempt, the local news (WTAE) let Kelly talk for at least ten minutes.He spoke mainly about bringing prayer back into schools which I thought was odd since Trump was just shot in his district a few hours before.But they always have their talking points ready to go.

gogojoe.bsky.social•23 days ago

STOP THE PRESSES!
A Republican is a coward !

probablysteve.bsky.social•23 days ago

Why still vote for him???

scoundrel2.bsky.social•23 days ago

not listening, bc he doesn't care about you or any of his constituents. he cares about money & power, neither of which, is why you voted for him

bseadeer.bsky.social•23 days ago

His constituents have allowed that to happen, now look at the hurt we are in

rjfortunato.bsky.social•23 days ago

He’s elected anyway, so; he figures “why bother?”

Republican voters need to stop giving away their votes.

againstmusk.bsky.social•23 days ago

And yet MAGAts vote for those people

thegrandmonster.bsky.social•23 days ago

Coward - getting fat in your dime.

dextros.bsky.social•23 days ago

And yet, knowing he cares not a jot about their opinions or needs. They keep voting for him.

vibezjuneau.bsky.social•23 days ago

Boot him

hortonsis.bsky.social•23 days ago

This GOP b@$t@rd is my congressman. He doesn’t answer phone calls or respond to email. He has “telephone Town halls.” he refers to himself as a “person of color” because “White is a color.” He was 1st elected b/c he has an auto dealership. GOP sheep who keep reelecting him.

gogojoe.bsky.social•23 days ago

He sounds like a real A-hole !
Especially rhat "white is a color horseshit ...

hortonsis.bsky.social•21 days ago

AND he wears makeup! Old Republican women in Butler County (PA) love him. 😳

gogojoe.bsky.social•21 days ago

Ugh!

hortonsis.bsky.social•21 days ago

Exactly!

lholtt.bsky.social•23 days ago

Ann Wagner 2nd district Mo. Has never, ever held a public, in person town hall. This is from 2023 and it hasn't improved. https://www.columbiamissourian.com/news/politifact_missouri/fact-check-has-ann-wagner-held-any-town-halls-in-her-district/article_35453446-bd1d-11e8-add1-831f6d342bb3.html

7kats.bsky.social•23 days ago

They'll still vote for him again

willfurlong.bsky.social•23 days ago

And his voters continue to put him back in office. Now they whine?

breadandfizz.bsky.social•23 days ago

But they keep electing him.

cindyanddavid.bsky.social•23 days ago

They on the run because they know they wrong. Lying, cheating & stealing to & from their constituents. 🙄😒

oldstoney1957.bsky.social•22 days ago

COWARD

raidersyourface.bsky.social•23 days ago

Go to their homes.

ecppdx.bsky.social•23 days ago

Seems bonkers that there is no requirement for officials to meet with their constituents. Maybe they should stop voting for him.

adamgny.bsky.social•23 days ago

So what you're really saying is, we haven't had a democracy for awhile, it's just super obvious now.

Im going to sell a hat that says George Carlin was Right About Everything

wendalsimpson.bsky.social•23 days ago

This is my rep. He’s a fucking scumbag. There’s your answer. Ask him about his used cars.

kudiebee.bsky.social•23 days ago

They need to hold a town hall anyway. Invite his opponent(s). Let him know where & when the town hall WILL be held and that it WILL be held whether he shows up or not. If he doesn’t show, his opponent(s) get all of the time to use as a rally for their 2026 campaigns.

maggiemay61.bsky.social•23 days ago

Dumb asses keep voting him in. Can’t fix stupid

kimress.bsky.social•23 days ago

And yet they keep voting for him...

cowgirl52.bsky.social•23 days ago

🤣😂🤣😂

comen-tator.bsky.social•22 days ago

Does he even ever go back to his district, or does he just stay in DC year-round to avoid any of the riffraff of his home district, except for election days? ... or maybe he even votes in his own election race by mail from DC!

cg13.bsky.social•23 days ago

Beware! The cruel and corrupt Republicans in Congress are attempting to decimate and destroy Medicaid, the ACA, social programs and the economic safety net in order to give massive tax cuts to the selfish wealthy and greedy corporations. Shameful and vile! They must be stopped!

alpha-aurora.bsky.social•23 days ago

Why do these people keep voting for him when he’s failing them?

trexpaine.bsky.social•23 days ago

I guess things were ok under Biden if no one demanded meetings!

Such a wuss!!

marcia-ferguson.bsky.social•23 days ago

Sounds like an SOS for @governorwalz.mn.gov who says he'll go to GOP areas if their rep won't hold a town hall ...

newlife25.bsky.social•23 days ago

How did he get re-elected for the last 10 years?

ajosharpe.bsky.social•23 days ago

Stupid people. No other explanation.

I would be more in favor of IQ tests as a voting requirement than a citizenship test. Stupid people should not be allowed to vote...or drive...or procreate.

Just kidding...maybe

coolingjets.bsky.social•22 days ago

They get that way when they get institutionalized and the World can't function without them.
Make them understand that life goes on without them.

dpete43.bsky.social•23 days ago

Republicans are hiding under rocks. Vote them all out.
