Congressman Emanuel Cleaver, (D) is the only good federal representative from Missouri. A few good state Democrats, but they have been in the minority for decades. Jess has put substantial effort into increasing the number of state Democrats. Slight increase, but too many always Republican
Defense is good but really we need an offense that a “Red America is Failing” national campaign that highlights the high poverty, low healthcare, low education and higher crime rates in red states.
Literally a complete embarrassment that Missouri could elect such a vile person to represent them. Mo is heavy into Medicaid and Jason.voted to cut constituents off of health care. Jason should lose his job in 26’
Yup….Medicaid is codified in our constitution. They’re gonna have to do something and Haulin Ass Hawley knows it. He also knows that if he doesn’t, that may really impact his chances of reelection.
Honestly, I was shocked as all get out that he won again considering how Jan 6 went down.
Oh Jess…. I am so sorry that this mental midget, represents a portion of Missouri. Never give up hope…. and get rid of this horrible guy. 💙💙💙. You are not alone, remember that !!! ❤️🙏🏾🫵🏾
Well of course, he's apparently not smart enough to accept that a person can do two or more things at the same time. The plight of Republicans who get overwhelmed when they're asked to do more than one thing.
How many red state politicians have to get slapped down like this before they stop trying this line of attack? They all seem kinda dumb so maybe they'll keep doing it...
This grinning fool has an unmanned office smack dab in the downtown area where I live. I asked Smith to explain to the people of his district, in his own words, why he is so wasteful. His reply? A copy of his newsletter that I specifically checked the NO box on. Oust this idiot!!
This is another tired myth amongst republikkkans. To say LA or San Francisco are crap cities is utterly laughable, regurgitated by pinheads who aren’t lucky enough to live in either city.
This knuckle dragger represents the district I live in. It’s very embarrassing, infuriating, and humiliating. A high number of Medicaid recipients in his district… I’ll be moving and won’t look back. He’s a permanent stain on Missouri and the US. Disgraceful.
I once carpooled w/ a South Asian techie, in regime1, who believed CA was running a multi-billion $ deficit (this was days after the local news had announced a healthy surplus), & also that shitler was going to speed up the immig process, after admitting H1b visas had gotten harder to maintain. 🤦🏽♀️😵💫
I feel ya. South Carolina has Tim Scott (who willingly serves his GOP White Supremest masters), Lindsey what the fuck is with this dude Graham and the Princess of vileness herself, Nancy Mace. I was going to say Queen but Marjory Taylor Greene proudly wears that crown.
ALL of the maga minions NEED TO BE ACCOUNTABLE! All of Congress MUST uphold their

This is priceless. Hey, I live in Missouri where this square-head fool is a Representative. If you want to know more about his DNA Google his Mom's illegal puppy mills and the inhumane treatment the animals have suffered for YEARS! MO is embarrassed all the time.
"Smith’s Kennel has a history of repeat USDA violation stretching more than a decade, unsanitary conditions; dogs exposed to extreme temperatures w/o adequate shelter; dogs w/o enough cage space; pest/rodent infestations; injured bleeding dogs, sick dogs not been treated by a vet, and much more.
After voters passed Proposition B, the Missouri Legislature passed legislation to repeal it before it went into effect in November 2011. One legislator who sponsored a repeal bill was Rep. Jason Smith, He’s obviously corrupt and willing to overturn for his own personal interests and of his mother."
Missouri is 22nd in Poverty as well. You’re the one who needs to get to work there Jason. California is the 4th largest economy in the world and subsidizes your FK’N states ass. You need to come to terms with reality, dude
I wonder how much of this difference is because California has more immigrants and more undocumented immigrants. Statistically, those groups are much less likely to commit crimes.
Yes,but why do so many Missourians like that slack-jawed embarrassment? And we can’t rule out Texas, Georgia Utah and so many others that they are the majority! SMH 🤦♂️
Whoa, sounds like someone’s been getting under your skin! 😅 You know, not every politician has the charm of a Jersey boardwalk vendor selling you saltwater taffy, but we make do, right? Sometimes you just gotta laugh to keep from crying.
The share ignorance of basic facts and the grandiose way in which they lie says a lot about their voters than them. When people put the deprivation of others above their own wellbeing... This is what you get.
These ignorant MF'ers are so uninformed/ignorant. But they also know the MAGA cult will believe anything TACO or TACOs appointed/elected officials say ☹️
How it works in my area: You need to be related, connected, or have $. There are families that have $ and have been here for generations. They run the small towns here. They do not like you or help you if you are not one of the above. I can't figure out how anyone can break into their circles.
I don't think it can be changed, it's very frustrating to witness. Very small areas with a bit of $, many torn up mobile home parks. Apathy and cruelty. Not good. The "Hillary/dems gonna take your guns" really made an impression here, too.
Instead of attributing their poverty & general lack of economic opportunity to their own votes, limited education & ambition, & the greed of billionaire CEOs & big global corporations, they toe the MAGA line of blaming the "elitist" middle-class of educators, scientists & white-collar professionals.
I agree. I see no curiosity or desire to change the way things are. I do hear Repub talking points out here (sometimes verbatim) frequently, it bubbles to the surface in unrelated coversations. A seemingly out-of-place anger floats around, too. A lot of dysfunction.
Will Westmoreland/Back 40 is trying to tackle the farmer side. I believe he's in southern MO. I'm in an area where a few have $ and many are living in mobile home parks. Related/connected is what continues this cycle here.
The Moscow-Musk propaganda trolls immediately jump in with, "California does not report data to FBI!" Which is true, they report only about 4% of their data to FBI.
Meanwhile Florida reports 0.0% of their data to FBI.
I really don’t know. Do they deliberately lie to manipulate and score points with the base or are they that stupid ignorant from the Fox News right wing echo chamber?
Gavin Gruesome is a straight up embarassment to CA.
He is on the right side on immigration. I give him a little bit of credit for that.
Otherwise he has accomplished nothing. If he runs for president, and he will, I doubt he will even win CA.
Perhaps you should stick to your own state’s crime rate in Missouri before you start throwing stones at California, Mr. Congressman. Seems like you have enough on your hands. Whereas, Gov Newsom can walk and chew gum at the same time. Bless your heart for being worried but I think he can handle it.
“And then you can look at Medicaid cuts,” Missouri lawmaker and Congress tax chief Jason Smith said, before hastily correcting himself. “Uh, Medicaid reforms, I should say.”

Congressman Jason #Smith is a slack-jawed embarrassment to the state of #Missouri...
As a sad ‘miserian’, this gave me a great laugh!
*WE* are ~*NOT*~ MAGA.
We, The People, understand and remember history.
Newsom has *vast* expanses of proof of being a *politician*: He changes his supposed *self* upon polls.
He *doesn't* do that ALL the time. This is fact. This is Truth.
Newsom FIGHTS for Justice. now. now that it is *profitable*. Whenever it is *forced* upon him, he makes "himself" clear.
This is politics.
People who fight for Human Rights even when it isn't popular. They DO exist.
@governor.ca.gov is self-serving filth.
I will openly support *him* as long as he fights, but I see Truth.
I moved there when I was 12 and by the time I was in high school, I was finally a Local. But adults who moved there often NEVER were.
MAGAts are stupid beyond words
This might not be the area in which he wants to compare.
And from the table, MO is #6 in homicide rates.

Then how we know what's correct? From the CDC.

That's a dig!!! Good 1 !

I don't think Newsom rises to that level, but I do think he is incompetent.
I mean one of their senators is Josh Haulin Ass Hawley
Another reason we call it the not so great state of Misery.
