Alaska State Rep. David Eastman (R), a former Oath Keeper who attended the Stop the Steal rally on Jan. 6, sparked outrage on Monday when he asked whether there could be economic benefits to the death of abused children.
Clearly, this cretin is morally and ethically challenged. I would lay money he is against ‘abortion’ and ‘prays’ for the children.
“I wished that he asked questions with a little bit more sensitivity to the listeners and how they’re perceived, and I can have that conversation,” Republican Rep. Sarah Vance, who chairs the House Judiciary Committee, told the Daily News. “But he’s there on his own accord and only represents himself.”
So it wasn’t the question, or the subject of his question, it’s that he said out loud what his fellow Republicans are thinking?
Poor Eastman didn’t factor in the earnings that the victim would have taxed, or the buying power of the live consumer of goods and services, just the cost of dealing with the trauma of the abuse that the victim has to try and heal from.
Deplorables was way, WAY too good of a term for these people.
Party of life!!!
I’m sorry, what in the actual f*ck?
Republicans of all stripes want to support life, but only until that life is born, and shown not to be the second coming of Christ. Then you’re on your own.
I really like some of these folks to give me their definitions of: Civilization, society, and community.
I think it is the spoken word analog of this game. Who can trigger everyone the most by saying the most outrageous thing imaginable?
Asking for himself or for a friend?
Is that exclamation for the Eastman who said the quiet part out loud, or the chair of the Judicial committee who seems to think he didn’t voice his concern in a more palatable way?
Guys like this always look just like this guy. Always.
Today’s Republicans. Pro-birth, anti-life.
There is something very seriously and psychologically wrong with these people. The way they think is incomprehensible.
It’s really revolting that a judge ruled in his favor to keep him, as a former Oath Keeper, in his seat.
Nice going, moron.
It’s been 200 years, and Malthus is still wrong!
The R must mean “Repository”
As long as the Trump Era demands this kind of thing, we will continue to be treated with this kind of tribal selfishness.
Methinks he is in the runnning to craft himself as a modern Jonathan Swift, with a reissue of A Modest Proposal – except absent the satirical voice.
He should have been removed.
However, him continuing to be a clear member of the Republican party spouting outrageously offensive statements is the next best thing.
The more they show the public who they really are, the less people will vote for the party that includes them.
I hope so. The ones who aren’t abusing their children, maybe.
Alaska State Rep. David Eastman ( R ),
Rep. Eastman says it’s a benefit to society when children who are victims of abuse die
“because there aren’t needs for government services over the course of that child’s life”
when they die as a results of abuse.
Did he graduate from Josef Mengele High School? or John Wayne Gacy Prep?
