Who would’ve thought that Josh Brecheen and Markwayne Mullen were forward thinkers? (Who would’ve thought they were thinkers?) But they figured out years ago to do telephone town hall meetings instead of public ones. That way they can screen who calls in and only accept the ones they agree with. Now pretty much the rest of republicans around the country are abandoning town hall meetings because their constituents are extremely mad at them for enabling Trump and Musk to destroy our country.

Our representatives can’t stop bending the knee to their lord. They’ve done absolutely nothing to protect the poor and working class from the hell that’s being unleashed on us. Mullen hasn’t even done anything to claw back the grants taken from the Cherokee Nation he claims to be a member of. But that didn’t stop him from taking Trump to a wrestling match a couple of Saturdays ago. Must be nice for the taxpayers to pay for your salary and insurance while you do nothing.

We should demand that they email every single one of us a list of five things they’ve done last week to help improve our lives. And crippling social security, shutting veterans benefits down, slashing Medicare, enriching billionaires again and destroying our constitution don’t count.
