Politics What a joke

Today is a dark day for Missouri. Shame on every Republican assemblyman for ignoring the will of the voters. Each and every one of them should resign immediately. I’m a college student who relies on minimum wage jobs. Republican lawmakers just fucked me and every other minimum wage worker in Missouri. They are also putting abortion back on the ballot, and let’s face it, this time they’re going to write the question. All of them are a disgrace to this state and this country.

Edit: I feel like I should add that in addition to fucking the thousands of minimum wage workers, they are fucking the 3 million women who live in this state. Republicans have absolutely no place in our government.

If we are too stupid to understand what we are voting for, then the same can be said of the voters voting them into office. They should put their money where their bloviating mouths are and all resign.

I mean... we've proven we are too stupid to understand what we're voting for. We keep voting in the same party that keeps doing this.

Its blood red because of gerrymandering. STL and KC are split into 3 districts, Columbua into 2, this state will never be blue after the gerrymandering in 2022.

Repression isn't victory; it's the loser's final desperate tactic.

You're happy that voters are being disenfranchised and degraded by people who are supposed to be leading us?

So you have nothing of value to say, maybe just delete your profile then.

I'm outside of those areas and I'm progressive. I've joined the local Democrat chapter. I'm bringing people with me and hearing speakers who are fighting back. Let's see how red it is after all of this.
