Just a reminder that he, and your local representatives all have offices where they can receive letters, emails, and phone calls from their constituents. If you don't like that your rep wants to murder babies, you should probably let them know.
What's that going to do? I mean, I'm all for telling off the politicians that represent me (fucking Mike Johnson can eat a dick) but the GOP genuinely doesn't care what their voters have to say. They locked down their vote by making it us vs them. Their own voters could tell them they're doing horrible and they'd still get those votes without changing anything because conservatives have been successfully brainwashed into thinking democrats are all evil.
GOP politicians are in a position where they can literally just laugh in your face about a complaint like this..
I'll tell you what, if his office is overrun by mail and phonecalls of angry people saying killing babies is not okay, he's probably going to lose some staffers.
You might be able to take a punch, but you don't want death by a thousand cuts.
Or lose their salaries, as an employee who could have been doing campaign work is now stuck sifting through mail all day.
If nothing else it will annoy them.
That’s a laudable goal
You say that like they'll ever even see it. 100% guarantee every single one of these guys has an intern or a secretary take these messages.
At that point the goal is to so entirely overwhelm the secretary that they become incapable of doing any real work, needing to wade through mail all day each day to make sure nothing of serious importance is missed in the sea of angry voters.
If you do it right, you actually waste the time of 2 or more employees on their weekly schedule. It literally costs them money to ignore you.
Yep, my congressman has 2. Call until they take the phone off the hook.
Have things delivered cod so they have to deal with that hassle.
Do the same with food so they can’t easily order it.
Do it until they quit working for pieces of shit and they have to hire and train more and then keep going.
What’s that going to do?
It makes them happy, as clearly their propaganda is working.

That may get their attention.
Edit: Ooh! They even have an American Blend glitter choice that's red white and blue. May have to personalize the card with that one so they know you're upset.
I'm not going to condone sending prank bomb packages to representatives. That's how you end up on a list.
Also, glitter is basically a war crime. Shiny microplastics you can never remove from every crevice, it's like party herpes. Which, I suppose is also regular herpes.
So abortions bad, but killing babies good?
Brown babies.
They don't give a fuck about abortion, they just use that as a tool to be cruel to women.
Once you acknowledge that the cruelty is the point, a lot of their hypocrisy and self-contradiction suddenly makes sense.

And people should be shouting from the rooftops pointing that out. Loudly and consistently.
“Pro-life conservatives are obsessed with the fetus from conception to 9 months. After that, they don’t wanna know about you. They don’t wanna hear from you. No nothing! No neonatal care, no daycare, no Head Start, no school lunch, no food stamps, no welfare, no nothing. If you’re pre-born, you’re fine, if you’re preschool, you’re fucked.” — George Carlin
Not until you reach - The Military age!
Harvesting adrenochrome bad, killing for racism good.
That conversation was brutal. Dudes a sociopath
If someone were systematically treating us the way we treat others, what are the odds survivors would become “terrorists?”
Looking at our reaction to 9/11, id say 100%
Nailed it. And 9/11 was a reaction to our own terrorism, plundering.
All I'm gonna say is most native people have a pretty different take on this subject from most.
Yes. It’s what happens when we ~~whitewash~~ rewrite history.
At least he's honest. More than can be said about most people defending the genocide in Gaza. Most are too ashamed to say outright they don't see Arabs as human.
We don’t need them to be honest to know that they’re garbage humans. We need them to stop being garbage humans. More importantly, we need a way to stop them from doing harm.
Don’t get distracted by praising them just because they took the mask off. They don’t deserve praise for that, praise for being openly monstrous. If anything, this is the time to call them out more loudly for not even making the effort to hide it.
We need them to stop being garbage humans.
Not very likely, short of sending them on a one-way trip to Mars. Then they become human garbage instead.
I'm perfectly fine with them being garbage humans in the confinement of a prison, where people who commit, support or entice genocide belong.
As long as the babies are brown, right GOP?
“I would encourage the other side to not so lightly throw around the idea of ‘innocent Palestinian civilians,’ as is frequently said,” he said on the House floor.
“I don’t think we would so lightly throw around the term ‘innocent Nazi civilians’ during World War II.”
I’m not saying we should go back to representatives getting into physical brawls and duels, in fact it is a terrible idea. But some people clearly have just never faced consequences in the form of getting their ass kicked and it really shows.
I'll say it over and over again. The founding fathers wrote the Constitution assuming duels would keep lawmakers accountable.
First we need to do something about all the guns, now rather than brawl weak pieces of shit will pull out their guns to do a bit of mass shooting.
Something, something, tree of liberty
I'm sure his blood would kill any plant that had to feed on it.
The blood of tyrants is nourishing, it's got what plants crave.
Tyrants maybe, but someone like him, the poor plant would starve.
Audrey II isn't so picky.
