GOP Senator Doubles Down On 'We All Are Going To Die' Comment In Wild Non-Apology
After her flippant reply to constituents' worries about health care and food assistance cuts, Sen. Joni Ernst followed up with a brazen video filmed in a cemetery.
Wow, she’s talking about embracing Jesus Christ in the same statement as taking away poor people’s healthcare to give tax cuts to billionaires. These Christians love to wear their mascot like a badge while completely contradicting the explicit lessons of the book.

Because they don't actually believe in anything but greed. They use religion as a tool to gain power. Hypocrisy be damned, they couldn't care less. It's the religious idiots that refuse to see this that kill me... But then again it's completely understandable, we are stuck in a 2 party system where it's "the ultimate evil" vs "people I generally agree with but don't particularly like." (That goes for whatever side you're on. We all see the politicians the same, except for the insane Trump cultists.)
They’ll throw six or seven figures at some charity owned by another rich asshole friend and call themselves Saints. I assume that’s how they trick themselves into thinking they’re anything but parasites.
I think we read different books... The Bible I grew up on endorses slavery
Dude, I’m an atheist, but the old testament is a complete contradiction of the new testament practically. The teachings of Jesus, who these idiots always put front and center, does speak tirelessly on helping the poor and telling the rich to give up their wealth to help others. I was raised catholic in a catholic school and I saw the contradictions as a kid they are so blatant. I’m just pointing out their hypocrisy in being so flippant about poor people suffering to give tax cuts to the rich while waving their Jesus saves bull shit.
I am always baffled by how a book that endorses blatantly evil behavior is the one these idiots always trot around as an THE example of morality. If abuse, rape, and murder are morality then I'll choose to be immoral and not rape or murder anyone.
“But for those that would like to see eternal and everlasting life, I encourage you to embrace my lord and savior, Jesus Christ.”
Oh, hey, well good for you. You have nothing to fear then. So get on with it you fucking psycho. Go feed yourself the business end of a shotgun instead of killing the poor and the helpless and let the rest of us work on cleaning up the mess your kind are making.
The best part to all this is their belief in an afterlife in heaven where you never have to worry about your health, your food or your shelter ever again .... an absolute communist hell hole.
They deny any humanity in this life because they believe in a humanity that will never happen in an after life.
I am beyond tired of "live and let live" when it comes to the religious right, when its influence negatively impacts the world so clearly, and its hunger for complete global subservience seems to never end.
These people are FREAKS! It is literally a death cult, and its cultists are in charge of more than half the country! They belong in communes in the wilderness of Montana, not ruling the most powerful culture in human history. Not with their hands on the nuclear football and giving orders to 11 Carrier Battle Groups.
Everyone should sever all ties with bible-thumpers. They need to either give up their delusions or be excised from civilization.
We all die anyway right? So clearly we should all immediately kill ourselves and save on national resources!
If we will all die anyway, is there anything wrong with killing the wealthy and powerful?
Or does the tune change then?
Only once you're not able to work for the corporate overlords may you apply for a permit to take yourself out.
No, suicide is a sin so you'd go to hell.
What you would need to do is set up a chain where the one Christian murders another, and then asks Jesus for forgiveness immediately, before the next Christian murders them. And so on...
At the end, you would end up with a single murderer who wouldn't have anyone to do them in... But that could be their sacrifice. Like Jesus or some shit.
I suggest she goes first.
You first, bitch.
They have all forgotten who they were supposed to serve.
GOP are supposed to serve rich people though. They haven't forgotten.
Nah every politician is supposed to serve not only their constituents but every civilian of the United States. Let's get some real accountability, let's restore the 5k donation limit. Let's block insider trading. We dont need them to start this.
They can be reminded...
Religion has always been a way to convince the poor to die for the rich. "Your rewards will come in the next life. Please kill yourself working."
Even Buddhism has the philosophy of suffering in this life will be repaid in the next. Fuck all that shit. There's no fucking reward, just death. Make sure you don't die carrying someone else's debt.
Even Buddhism has the philosophy of suffering in this life will be repaid in the next.
Not all Buddhism. Zen Buddhism, for example, is very clear that it's all about how you live right now, not later, and has nothing to do with reincarnation myths. Unfortunately, with Buddhism, Christianity and all religions, the dumber varieties tend to be the loudest and most popular.
The most promoted
Then let's say more specifically, religions promoted and encouraged by the rich and powerful. The ones who whip the mob into a frenzy and then are like, "rah rah! You go guys! I'll be right behind you, I just have to wash my grass first. Cleanliness is next to godliness. Yeah, don't wait up for me."
tell me how it's not a death cult again
Inb4 they all still vote for her cuz they've been brainwashed that they have to vote the party line no matter what
Republicans always double down on ignorance and smugness. She doesn't believe some people didn't know about death but it's a good opportunity to shit on those same people that gave her limited power (which took a rocket ship straight to her head).
Don't be in such a hurry to meet Jesus, Senator, because He's going to cast you into the flaming pit you've been digging your whole life with every act of greed and heartlessness.
Says the cock sucker with free Healthcare.
A cock sucker has more use than this woman.
That poor cock who has to deal with this hag.
Joni Ernst feels like a monster that should be on display at the Iowa State Fair.
She should just lead by example, and be proudly displayed 6 feet under. I mean, we're all going to die after all, why should she wait? She can immediately make the world a batter place with this one little trick.
Like gov Walz and his blue ribbon piglet?
Religion is societal cancer
Can I interest you in a nice pint of bleach?
Mmmmmhmmm, berry flavor
I'm living forever, she can go die if she wants, she should give up her medical from her gov job.
Is she volunteering, or…..?
You first, Senator Bitchface. Go ahead, we'll wait.
She abuses the fuck out of restaurant staff and tips with those fake $20s with scripture on the back, no question.
How does this employee get to say that to the bosses?
I mean she wouldnt say to that to the TACO in chief.
I am surprised she didn't refer to her constituents complaints as "squealing".
No Rapture for her then.
