And this is the OPEN THREAD for right now . . .
How much is Davids money from her special interest groups back east?
ReplyDelete^^^ all of it and it still won’t help her win, she’s sad and pathetic
ReplyDeleteI like the “leftovers” headline, it’s so true I’m crying, this is the best kc has to offer we might as well secede with kck where we would be a million times better off, this is just plain sad
ReplyDeleteAnd she disrespected every Christian and Jew in the World by skinny-dipping in the dead Sea...
ReplyDeleteOh, wait!
Cannadog has new tags, a new diet and is tan rested and ready.

ReplyDeleteSharice Davids money comes form her tribe of indians and their casinos back in Wisconsin and she also had a fundraiser in NY with a bunch of socialists who are cop haters and rioters. She is a pretty dangerous thug.
Yoder is a solid citizen RINO who has done a good job for his constituents.
ReplyDeleteBecause of this, he was always going to win.
The millions in advertising aren't really changing opinions, they're playing to already-fixed echo chamber audiences on both sides.
Now, with the scary DC mob rule anctics, Yoder's role as a regular, reliable representative is appreciated.
"...DC mob rule anctics..."
ReplyDeleteWTF are you talking about?
Sharice's ads claim Yoder sold out for $300,000 to health care big business. Whereas, she has sold out for a total now of $2.6 million...and that's just Pelosi and the DCCC. Not the other PAC money. Johnson County voters need to wake up. She will sell them out to reward Pelosi for buying this seat.
ReplyDelete^^STFU, you stupid crazy bitch.
ReplyDeleteAnd Trump will promptly sign all of those Pelosi bills???
ReplyDeleteNancy is a scary boogieman but will have no power to enact law. Trump will veto any "socialist" bills.
What is important - is that a needed check and balance will be in place with Yoder gone.
Thousands died because of the lack of response to Maria in Puerto Rico, but no hearings. 4 army rangers died in Niger, but no hearings. Corrupt cabinet officials are wasting millions on travel and offices renovations, but no hearings. Children are separated from their parents at the border and the Justice department doesn't follow court order to stop, but no investigations. Where are Trump's tax returns to ensure no conflict of interest or emoluments problems exist? Nothing from the GOP Congress.
Trump will fire Mueller, Rosenstein and Sessions after the election, but with Yoder you know there would be no consequences in what would be impeachable actions. They haven't held any investigations into 2016 election interference and don't believe in Trump's blatant obstruction of justice even as it occurs in plain sight. They all believe that the dozens of indictments, convictions and guilty pleas from Trump's advisers are just a "witch hunt".
We need a check and balance, not Trump puppets.
"Funding to help non-profits and social service organizations would come from a fund set-up asking people to donate $10 a month for the KC Common Good."
ReplyDeleteAnother tax on citizens of KCMO disguised as a monthly donation which is probably not mandatory but never-the-less is still a tax.
