I knew it would be her even before I clicked the link. What a disaster she will be for the City of St Louis (as if it doesn’t have enough problems already with DemonRat Mayor Lyda Krewson at the helm) and the Nation. Perfect Commie Squad/Squat member.

Yet another pathetic LIB/DIM/leftist nitwit emerges. The people who vote for these malignant creatures must be really ill-served by their defective brains.

Is she kidding?? Too many Americans are ALREADY fat, lazy, submissive cattle. Her plan will make us MORE than ready for occupation by one of our many enemies ... who will be able to walk over our boarder and take charge.

~~~

Nope, not kidding, and without the pentagon, those cattle would be exposed for the slaughter.

You actually have to hate your own constituents to think like she does, or be absolutely moronically oblivious to history

The DoD already provides billions in social services all around the world. Part of the problem, we should defund that part.

Know your enemy:

Cori Bush (born July 21, 1976) is an American politician, registered nurse, pastor, and activist from St. Louis, Missouri, who is the Democratic nominee for Missouri's 1st congressional district. On August 4, 2020, she defeated 10-term incumbent Lacy Clay in the 2020 U.S. House of Representatives primary election, advancing to the November general election in the solidly Democratic congressional district. If elected, as is expected, Bush will be the first African-American woman to serve in the U.S. House of Representatives from Missouri. She previously ran in the Democratic primary for the 2018 U.S. House of Representatives election for Missouri's 1st congressional district and the 2016 U.S. Senate election in Missouri. She was featured in the Netflix documentary Knock Down the House.

“If you’re having a bad day, just think of all the social services we’re going to fund after we defund the Pentagon,”

Don’t know this person but the comment suggests a childish mind living in a fantasy land. It’s not exaggeration to say that she would enable those who want to destroy our country, purposely or not.

Sounds like BOTH, in her case

It’s probably a good thing to have traitorous cannon mouths in Dim strongholds

Let the people see their idiocy that will go unchallenged until Nanzi sees the polls showing otherwise

Just like she did with stuffing The Squad

She was part of the mob that broke into the gated neighborhood. None of the mob were arrested or charged, but the McCloskeys who dared to try to defend their home from them are charged with felonies.

Just think what a short time the successor to the Republic would exist after defunding the Pentagon - what a short time it would be before China forecloses on the country that has deep-sixed its defense..

She, like all public school attendees her age and even older, know no history, have not been taught Civics, or Geography, or much of anything real. Eve Math has been so convoluted that only the math heads that will learn it with or without school teaching can learn it much. Now students mostly only learn to push buttons on a calculator. They do not learn how it works which is part of the loss of teaching of reason and thought.

It’s a great idea. The answer to terrorism is art therapy.
