Not even one word about 1/6, the largest politically violent event in any of our lifetimes???

House Republicans are scared... the Zombies are tired of being lied to.

If they hadn't spent years promoting hate and violence we wouldn't be in this mess. They need to reverse course.

Convient trump wants security now but its willing to strip security detail of his political opponents

They vote themselves the best of everything with common folk tax dollars.

They want to be prepared because they’re getting ready to make things worse for us.

What about us. After all we’re funding this gigantic giveaway. How about doing something for the citizens of this country in terms of gun safety. The country’s awash in guns and ppl on the edge are just waiting for an opportunity to have another active shooter incident god forbid. 😵‍💫

They need protection because they are egging on a WAR! Shameful Republicans

One more reason for Democrats to shut it down. 🤨

Say what?

Interesting how they will spend big money to protect themselves. Imagine if they shut their traps, were helping their constituents and feeling less guilty.

Dems better not support this unless Kamala Harris' secret service protection is fully restored.

The GOP shutdown is about to commence

If they and their orange king would ratchet down the divisive extremist talk no one would need security.

All Major Domestic Terrorist groups follow Trump. Speaks volumes. No Justice. Generations pay the price.

How has nobody responded with the goose meme yet? Political violence from WHO, you facist fucks?! 🪿

You're not going to mention January 6th....really?

Funny how they didn’t propose this after J/6.

Maybe, I dunno, stop literally calling anyone who doesn't agree with them "the enemy" or calling some races "animals"? Their carefully chosen words are the very words they claim need to be toned down. 🪞

They weren’t scared until the Orangutan 🦧 came to Washington.

There's an easy fix, don't give people reasons to think they need to exercise their 2A rights. First would be passing popular legislation with broad bipartisan support (m4a, common sense gun control, immigration reform, sanctioning Israel, etc). Watch the violence plummet. Step 2) Income equality

They should be scared

Wouldn't it be more straightforward to simply remove the Thug in Chief from office?

F*** them and their $30 million for lawmaker security.How about instead $30 million for gun safety,OUR safety.They wouldn’t need extra security if they quit lying and calling for violent retribution

So protect themselves, but F*** the kids. Damn shame.

screw the politicians. How about the security for Americans

MORE deficit spending to protect them from the consequences of worshipping the gun.

Do everything except pass gun legislation

Ответ для Jrobulls

The Dems need to introduce an anti-gun bill and call it “The Charlie Kirk Act” and watch what happens.

Cool story. How much for schoolchildren security?

Based on Congress rhetoric, Congress should fund our security with an extra $30 million, EACH!

This is their scam to blame Democrats for the shutdown. They sell fear, which is funny considering they're the ones committing all the political violence. Until they negotiate with Democrats, this is all just political theater, and they will cause the government shutdown.

I tend to think the Maga-fueled Congress never has to grapple with means to increase political violence. Jan. 6 a case in point.

Didn’t they recently strip the former VP of her Secret Service detail while simultaneously overloading Hegseth with security? They’re all about guns right? Let’em put in their own work.

Ehm...

Politicians and oligarchs don't like it when the peasants start punching up harder.

Maybe there should be more gun restrictions. Just saying.

Put Felon Krasnov in prison where he belongs.

And a lot of anti-trans laws being snuck through.

Why are they so scared all of a sudden? It's not like gun violence is new. There was hardly this much fuss after J6 or after Melissa Hortman was murdered.

Perhaps the public would not want to resort to murdering our political representatives if the improvement of our material conditions was met as swiftly as the whims of their corporate and national donors

Or, fun fact, when you do your fucking job correctly people don’t want to hurt you.

Wild! 30$mil for lawmakers, but children dying in 3rd period is thoughts n prayers

Or…they could try treating the citizens of this country fairly..🤔

Ответ для C-gak

That does not satisfy their vile donors

Ответ для anthonylamarche

Honestly, it says a lot about their priorities. Also their guilt…

They can use all the money from insider trading to pay for it themselves.

They'll be really running scared after those major cuts start affecting taxpayers and their families. Desperate and vengeful people will lash out.

Convenient and not so different than Billionaires the like of Zucky building bunker in Hawaii. Are things still obscured, folks?????

They created it and now we the ppl pay for it.

Republicans appear afraid that they may reap what they have been sowing.

Secure our children, pass gun control. Oh, and impeach tRump

No, #47 wastes money. If ppl just shut up for awhile, let the temp simmer between Dems and Rep, but no way. Trump just called @repilhan.bsky.social, “disgusting.” Why, she’s gorgeous! She bright, & yes, she wears a head scarf…so what? Trump wears makeup, depends, and is large! He’s disgustn

If they're such good guys, why don't they use their own guns for security?

Republicans are causing the political violence!

Why should we spend money protecting you when you won’t spend money protecting our children?

Ответ для Sam

Best thought I’ve read today. Thank you.

Is Congress going to pass this request through the DOGE process? How about $30m for health care or emergency management?

Or stop acting like power hungry Assholes. Or read some history books to see how this ends

Why don't they just take some of that ICE funding for their security? Or, hear me out here, they could Stop Inciting Violence

Ответ для Finallykat❌️👑🐸

They don’t get it. What’s that saying: U can’t put snakes in your neighbor’s yard & expect them to only to bite your neighbors. 😵‍💫

Ответ для alycegma

"You can't keep snakes in your backyard and expect them to only bite your neighbors." Accurate, smh

Scared of their own party but too afraid to admit it, as usual.

If the Republicans would stop dividing the country, they wouldn't need security. They spew lies all day long and wonder why people dislike them. And, my new congressman said he was going to DC to "work from Trump". What are we, his constituents? Do we count for anything?

So they know gun violence is a top issue in the🇺🇸, and they want protection from it using our tax dollars to protect themselves 🤔? Well, where is our security from gun violence? 🤬😡 Vote them all out!

How many school children are killed at school vs lawmakers? Is security money better spent on schools to protect our children or our lawmakers most of whom can afford their own security detail.

Ответ для LucysMomma

There's only 1 school shooting they care about and that's the one at UVU

More of our money spent because Trump and his admin are inciting violence and hatred. Trump is the problem.

But only thoughts and prayers for school children. I see.

Maybe congress should implement policies and appointments that/who actually solve problems rather than fomenting fear and hatred.

How about not ripping the country apart Tweet by Tweet?

“Lawmaker security” to Nancy Mace means some new guy she can get to fuck her.

No

A

Right-wingers are more to blame and now they want more security?

I don’t want to pay for that! My kid don’t get that for school.

Ответ для TM

I don’t want to pay to have Charlie Kurts body to Arizona . He was an every day citizen . Let his wife pay it .

Are they assuming that Kirk's murder was political violence? The more that comes out the more it appears Robinson's grievances with #charliekirk were personal, not political. Just because Kirk is political to THEM doesn't mean he is to everyone. They didn't react to Hortman's death this way.

Ответ для Arty-san

Some good Questions.

Thoughts and prayers.

They caused their own fear. 🤷‍♀️

The “LEFT” is full of crazies! Spend every dollar of that money to protect the Republican members of Congress & the Senate!

We have to pay for their security but they don't do a freaking thing about guns that might help the rest of us.

No, no security until the GOP starts treating people with respect who they have differing opinions, until they grow a spine and stop the hate speech they don’t deserve security, we don’t have security why should they?

They’re all millionaires - pay for security yourselves. Or maybe - hear me out - consider sensible gun control that might benefit all of us who are scared?

Ответ для Bart Jonker

No, they are not all millionaires. You think AOC (and a lot of others in Congress) can afford a security detail on her own?

Ответ для East Coast J

Actually I do. Donors. Moreso, security & paying for it isn’t the point. Fix the ACTUAL problem…

Ответ для Bart Jonker

So now individual politicians have to come up with their own security through donors? Are we trying to reduce donor influence and politics? Now we’re asking donors to pay for security? Oh yeah, just “fix the proble, and what are we gonna do in the meantime? 🙄

Ответ для East Coast J

Nope nope nope. I don’t want my tax dollars paying to secure a right wing politician from a right wing nut. If AOC needs security I’ll be glad to kick in (even though I’m not in NY) but that’s NOT FIXING THE ACTUAL PROBLEM

While the GOP made cuts that harm the most vulnerable people in our country, somehow they found $30,000,000 to protect their whiny asses from their home grown domestic terrorists. 🤬🤬🤬

Cool, where's our kid's security? or when someone kills a regular citizen? or what about state politicians?

The world is more dangerous because of political figures. They don't deserve security

Fascists are scared of the public? Wow, wonder why.

Ответ для jasonlky

So is Putin

Let me guess. It will only be for MAGA politicians.

That should be doubled and include language that Democrats and Democratic Socialists shall be provided security and that Trump cannot remove it.

Put that $30 million to protecting our kids . The old for me but not for thee .

Barry McGuire was correct
