Missouri's federal representatives are such an embarrassment

lol donald trump invaded venezuela and captured maduro all so that they’d stop sending oil to cuba and start sending it to israel jesus christ man its just too ridiculous

If every Dem candidate doesn't echo this then we really have no one on our side.

Chairman cutting in to make sure Lyons doesn't get got by Swalwell here

Missouri Republicans can dance around all they want, but they will cut needed programs and disadvantage thousands of citizens of the state just so they and Kehoe can give their rich donors tax breaks. It's a hateful way to lead and they've been doing it for decades.

I wrote (without swearing!) about Missouri AG Catherine Hanaway's ugly and ridiculous lawsuit seeking to redo the 2020 census to exclude non-citizens. There is more effed up about this lawsuit than I had space for: missouriindependent.com/2026/02/10/m...

A ton more americans need to start getting a ton more pissed off about our leadership believing they have a license and freedom to torture and kill whomever they want.

WATCH — @balint.house.gov on the unredacted Epstein files: “There’s a bunch of sick fucks… so many people knew…. Trump never kicked Epstein out of Mar-A-Lago. That’s a lie.” (From @dropsitenews.com )

All this while GOP is trying to pass a bill to give SoS FOUR chances to write language. Just so they can screw it up just enough to get their lies passed. What a pathetic ruling class.

The Heritage Foundation has released a 250-year roadmap to “save America.” The document is a how-to guide for subjugating girls & young women: a detailed plan to push them out of college, funnel them into early marriage and motherhood, and then trap them there. jessica.substack.com/p/theyre-com...

I'm going to do a thread of all the references and context behind Bad Bunny's performance and what it means for Puerto Ricans to see this on the biggest stage. The opening title screen is a street mural in Puerto Rico that comes to life with footballs as coconuts. Follow along!

LMAO LOL as well as ROFL

Jake must still be dizzy from the ass kicking he got from Anthony Joshua.

Finneas is better at political messaging than 99% of the Democratic consultants in DC.

Donald Trump is a racist.

Hinges on it? Northside in rubble, potholes, a shit recycling program, floundering public schools, but yes...let's give tax money to fixing a highrise with no affordable housing in it. Sure.

Mmmm public support for downtown business while the northside smolders

the only way I can see myself voting for Gavin Newsom is if the vote is for whether or not he should be kicked into a lion's enclosure

This piece in STL Mags newsletter is hilarious for multiple reasons: 1. Post dispatch too far left?? 2. He made comments to STL Business Journal and not post 3. The story about his comments is in STL Mag and not the post

MO AG thinks having less people counted in the census will give the state MORE representation....somehow? Can this state get a competent AG at some point? Any point? Ever?

There is clarity in second-term Trump increasingly confessing that many items on his to-do list—demanding tribute from universities, especially Harvard; claiming he might “take” Greenland; declaring he won an election that he knows he lost—are nothing more than efforts to boost his wounded ego.

Missouri's greatest gift to the senate is at it again. Being a genius, making up numbers, being pompous, ya know....a cool guy strong boy.

Not according to the letters me and my friends have sent him.

Eric Schmitt is an out and out racist. Pass it on.

can someone ask the esteemed Senator from Missouri exactly what he means by real Americans seriously, please explain this to me, a black woman, in plain English

our government used a Blackhawk helicopter in a major American city, detained children and zip-tied U.S. citizens all to target... squatters and the alleged Tren de Aragua presence? "It was a brutal lie against the American public." www.propublica.org/article/chic...

Another triumph under minority leader Beck. So glad he could force the senate Dems to keep him in place so he could let the Missouri GOP to spank him daily. Great work @missourisenatedems.bsky.social . Fight for nothing and get nothing.

He literally pulled a "you should smile more" IN RESPONSE TO AN EPSTEIN QUESTION.

Are Democrats out everywhere slamming the fact that Republicans don't want their secret police to get warrants before they disappear you? And they want them masked so no one is held accountable?

No masks on cops. No masks on cops. No masks on cops. www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2026/0...

crazy that basically every person complaining about "woke overreach" over the last 12 years is also in the epstein emails being like "thanks for the pussy, jeff ;)"

Take note WashU

Kinda insane to wake up and realize the pee tape is not only real, it’s part of an ongoing series.

Missouri's senator embarrasses the state yet again, a continuing series.
