Rep. Markwayne Mullin is facing backlash for telling constituents during an Oklahoma town hall Tuesday that the idea they pay his salary is “bullcrap.” The Oklahoma Republican told the crowd in Jay that he “paid enough taxes” as the owner of multiple businesses in order to pay his own salary. “You said you pay for me to do this. Bullcrap. I pay for myself. I paid enough taxes before I got there and continue to through my company to pay my own salary. This is a service. No one here pays me to go,” Mr. Mullin said in a video…..13Aug2017

From the article….. "I know for a fact because after it happened, he came over. He was physically and emotionally distraught. I actually gave him a hug and said, 'Sir, you did what you had to do.'"
Straight up POS.

This does it for me. Bye bye,Markwayne.
Didn’t know you before tonight and don’t care to know you ever.
So he thought he was going to be a hero and instead has probably been captured.
I hope so.
Need a Thunbs Up option on here.
Sounds like a nutcase. Has ever even been to central Asia before? Carrying wads of cash around? Who exactly was he trying to “rescue?”
I’m sure we don’t know even half of the story yet.
Your words are good enough. Maybe better!
Right, and I think he needs to have about 400 of his House colleagues hop on a plane and go help him be unaccounted for...
I don’t automatically accept as truth anything I read these days. I will withhold my opinion at this point. Regarding the financial end....pre-planning should have been much better.
LOL!! Let's hope it stays that way. Since he's so rich, he can pay his own ransom.
I don’t like people who get captured.
Of course, the officials likely are unaware of the location of their own asses, so that’s not really saying much
The same guy who I thought I heard in a video quite a while ago say with gun in hand, “I’m gonna get me one” or it might have been “some”? Maybe it wasn’t an authentic video but it stayed with me.
So it would be bad if he wanted to bring a family out of Afghanistan?
Who’s money he packing? Better not be US taxpayers!
Not smart. Not smart at all.
I see what you did there.
Over on the Twittsewer, the Lefty bluechecks are laughing at him and wishing him ill "because Republican".
What a moron! 
Never met the guy and he is “my” congresscritter. Hopefully not for much longer. You are right about him. How did anybody get elected with his attitude? He is a smart ass and in the brains department looks like all hat and no cattle.
Found the video of him in Jay in August of ‘17. What an arrogant ass. How dare he speak to those people that way.

There have been two elections since this happened. How was he elected? Never mind, people are brain dead. For letting him talk to them that way it is for certain they are brain dead.
Roid rage?
