[PatSeg]

2. I'd say unbelievable,

but it is really typical republicanism. Lots of show and no substance.

[Magoo48]

22. They are the bully at school, the asshole boss, they don't tip, and they litter.

Feel free to add on…

[Jilly_in_VA]

3. Because of course they did

They're always "agin it". Whatever "it' is.

[kacekwl]

4. So next time one of these Republican assholes whines

on the news about this problem this will surely be pointed out right ?

5. K&R

[3825-87867]

6. No better argument for Republican hypocrisy than.

defending the unborn even at the expense of the mother's life -

but voting against providing baby formula AFTER the baby is born!

You can't make this shit up and the media won't cover it.

[Alexander Of Assyria]

7. Posturing and posing on Twitter...it's what it's there for!...totally useless thing, except for liars.

[Initech]

There's a lot of misinformation on fakebook, hope they can stop it.

11. The Act would pay for additional FDA staffing to boost inspections of formula production facilities

This would ensure more babies wouldn't be killed by tainted formula. Minority whip Steve Scalise (R-La.) led the effort to oppose the bill by sending all house republicans a memo arguing that additional inspectors would not address the problem. (Translation: republicans are massively funded by formula-producing pharmaceutical companies to cover up their liability and ineptitude). Scalise's argument is absolutely stupid and illogical - if the FDA is to blame instead of the pharmaceutical companies for their bacteria-laden facility and equipment that killed babies, this is precisely what would address the problem. Sadly, republicans care more about money kicked back into their pockets than they do the lives of Americans.

12. ...and when the baby formula disaster is resolved, they will be in front of every microphone they

can find taking credit for taking care of the problem.

[mitch96]

13. For them it's not about the baby formula, it's about "owning the libs" and making the democratic

party look bad for the next election cycle... Power and money...YMMV

14. Disgusting nest of vipers.

Rethugs can not advocate for good. They can only gripe and hate on us.

[geardaddy]

15. Liz Cheney voted against it.

[IronLionZion]

16. In case anyone forgot she's a Republican

A Repub can be right on Trump and wrong about everything else

[geardaddy]

18. Yep

That was my point. Her spots are still leopard spots.

[djacq]

17. Big Surprise.... Not.

Rep. Bob Good VA-05 voted "No"

This district is becoming more diverse but not enough to out weigh these Trumpers.

[IronLionZion]

19. Thank you to all Dems and those 12 Republicans

and to hell with the rest who voted no

[dlk]

20. Republicans would rather posture than solve problems

They have absolutely nothing to offer Americans outside of their vitrol,

[SpankMe]

21. "The silence from the Biden administration and the FDA..."?

What silence? Joe and FDA have been talking about the shortage since before it was first reported. Plus, the vote they were taking is, itself, a solution and not silence. Yet, this motherfucker misleads and poisons the well with lies and misleading statements.

Never forget: Republicans are traitorous, seditious assholes who will visit harm on America to gain the upper hand.

[Wild blueberry]

23. Just called my "representative"

to let him know how despicable his vote was, how he is not helping Americans, and now babies. Grrrrr.

[DallasNE]

24. During The Early Months Of The Pandemic

The shelves were bare of toilet paper, hand sanitizer and baby formula. Did the Republicans blame Trump for the shortages of those items back then? Of course not.

[Skittles]

25. SOP FOR GOP

the "pro-lifers" strike again
