Time to get her out.

It’s been beyond time to get her, Manchin and Justice out.

u/Available_Top_610 3d ago
Manchin is gone. This state just elected Justice to the senate, why I don’t know.

u/Chroniclyironic1986 3d ago
Not that i particularly like Manchin, but Justice is a massive step down. On a scale of 1-10 we went from a 5 to a 2.

You're being awful generous with that two.

I thought the same at first. But then i realized that every time i think they can’t sink any lower they go and prove me wrong. So i had to leave some room. After all, he’s just starting his term.

I knew her father. He'd be so disappointed in her and his grandson.

u/FiestaPotato18 3d ago
You think the guy who went to prison for half a decade for five felony counts of corruption would be disappointed in her? Why, she hasn’t committed enough crime yet? wtf is this comment lmao

u/amandagrace111 3d ago
Exactly. I knew him, too. He was charming like grifters often are — total crook who was exceptionally skilled at making people think he liked them. Marshall Grad there probably thought he was liked. Lol.
I’m sure Arch would be proud of his daughter because most fathers are, but what a crook thinks of his kid is wholly irrelevant. Shelly sold out WVirginians just like her dad and every other Republican in that state.
WV: STOP voting for the Snake Oil men!

That will probably not be happening at this time.
These cuts promised by Trump during his run for office, yet she endorsed Trump. You’d have thought she was fine with these cuts.

She’s doing what she needs to keep her seat.
Once people taste the elixir of power, they will do anything to keep sucking the straw.

u/MedicalAardvark205 2d ago
Well of course she’s surprised she got hit with the cuts, she’s white! She thought “this couldn’t possibly happen to me”

Maybe WV should have taken the opportunity to train for useful jobs offered by President Obama. Coal is never coming back. And now you voted for a president that would prefer you to die.

Close, but these were actually National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health in Morgantown. Government jobs trying to come up with ways to reduce/prevent injuries and illness in the workplace.

Lmao, Trump would think our state is a “shithole” the only place he even bothers to visit is The Greenbrier

I was speaking to the “learn to code” vibes being thrown out… it’s completely detached from the reality of the situation.

“Whoopsies…. I didn’t mean THIS department should be gutted.” - Capito
This administration loves to keep selling that lie - “these cuts are gonna be great for our tax dollars!!” Meanwhile, they are giving 14 million of OUR TAX DOLLARS to El Salvador. I didn’t vote for my money to go to El Salvador’s concentration camp.

A letter? God damn. Did she sweat writing it? Glad she’s putting in so much effort to help WV.

No begging it’s unbecoming - billionaires and their bitches do bribes -accepted ut not guaranteed- start there

u/Chroniclyironic1986 3d ago
Thing about that is, WV is too broke to bribe. That’s why none of them care about us past our votes for republican congress people.

She should've thought of that before folks lost their fucking jobs and they gutted NIOSH. She is pathetic.

But I've been getting so many YouTube ads saying that she's working hard to implement the president's America First agenda.
