. Their constituents are similarly brainwashed, so yeah, they’re gonna keep touting death.

A sad way to lose voters.

Missouri’s Department of Health and Senior Services conducted a study in November that showed that areas of the state with mask mandates had lower rates of COVID-19 infection and death than those without

Yeah, but did they measure the rates of “freedom?”

• “One of the biggest mistakes challengers often make is thinking campaigns are about them and their ideas,” the source continued. “No one gives a sh-t about that. Elections are referendums on incumbents.”

I noted this yesterday. We don’t vote on policy, we vote on what letter follows the candidate’s name on the ballot (or on their literature, if not on the ballot). Doesn’t matter what the candidate stands for or what the candidate has in mind for constituents. Are the D or R?

End of story.

Why can’t they all just up and move to Guyana?

Or Arkansas.

Having lived in Missouri for many years, it doesn’t surprise me a bit that the governor would do something like that.

It’s almost funny how evil these “pro-life” assholes are, isn’t it? But not quite.

[becca656]

Their donors don’t think so. That’s all that matters.

This might be resolved with campaign finance reform, but that’ll never happen.

We would but our “institutionalized” justice(?) department is too bust defending TFG against credible rape allegations.
Can we get our priorities straight here?/s

I call this an “idiot buggy”.

So what interest does the State of Missouri have in killing its own people?

Not specific to the State of Missouri, but it looks to me like it’s part of a concerted nationwide GOP effort, so they can say Biden’s not improving the situation.

This might be resolved with campaign finance reform, but that’ll never happen.

And if it did there are 6 folks who would kill it.

There is no pretense anymore.

Any time I see a truck like that I always smile, wave, and say, “Sorry about your micropenis!”

It’s a MIRACLE!!!

… and if you want to be a charter member of the miraculous “Wall of Astonishment” club and have your name inscribed on a plaque
… send $1,000 to Joel in unmarked nonsequential tens and twenties…

That is awesome! Nothing to add

Every time I see those things, I enjoy pondering how much more gas they have buy to drive around with those massive drag attachments. Great investment! And SO MUCH freedom!

Some more WTF news from Fla, DeSantis is proposing having his own state militia…

@teenlaqueefa

It’s still hard to believe people vote for these fuckers.

I’m giving up on white Americans.

“Sorry about your micropenis!”

I just hold my index finger and thumb an inch apart and wave.

Seems the Show Me state doesn’t want to show me their murderous intent.
