Vile piece of useless human flesh 🤬
Vile piece of useless human flesh 🤬
There is no longer a bottom. As a country we’ve sunk so low.
Bottomless
Who has that assclown's contact info? Let's troll him for that fucking smirk, eh?
They’re getting good at running away.
It’s their favorite move.
Send a message to him on his website calling out his appalling behavior. www.banks.senate.gov/contact/
While hiding behind others, this little man laughs at Americans losing their jobs. He is stuffing Elon's money in his pockets while we starve to death on the streets. The MAGA faithful still vote for the man taking everything from them. Blind faith serves only evil.

And there are some not yet listed!
Does anyone know what Mack Schroeder did at HHS?
Mack Schroeder, fired from HHS, made sure grants supported Meals on Wheels for older adults, programs supported independent living for people with disabilities, and programs provided heating to low-income Americans
The alleged clown: Mack Schroeder graduated from the University of Michigan with a dual master of social work and master of public policy. Not a clown, Senator.
Budget Analyst
That was me. That was how I spent 15 years - state grants, not federal. Why would they not want people whose job was to ensure funds were used as they were intended??!?
I totally agree with your question; however, Trump and his ilk feel that job is simply too "woke" -- in fact, that's the word Sen. Jim Banks used after he insulted Mack Schroeder
This is brilliant.
We budget people are a touchy bunch.
😄
Well said!
No response, of course.
True, but he said Schroeder couldn't explain what he did for a living, and that's why it was woke. I think I'll write the bastard an email and explain it to him.
Budget Analyst with good reviews
This makes me want to cry. What is WRONG with these people?
Everything. Everything is wrong with these people.
Mine is the exact opposite reaction. It make me want to send him to his maker, or at least in very close proximity
They haven't pushed me to wishing violence, but as with Mr. Twain, there are obituaries I would read with enjoyment.
Don’t cry, his contempt is rotting him from the inside out. Live your life, rest, and peace and love to you!
I'd not cry for the jackasses in the elevator, but for the fired employee.
Sue his ass and make DOGE pay for damages
I had the same reaction. How does someone get like that? And what makes it even worse is he'll probably never suffer any consequences.
I was hoping for an action movie scene. 🎬 the guy with the phone enters the elevator. It goes up and he’s the only one walking when the doors open up the floor or two. Justice handed to the elite by the masses.
Trump has tons of Republican ass-kissers, but Banks is so far up Trump's backside that his blue suit turned brown.
This is off the rails.
MFer
jim banks is an asshole!
The worst of America is in the corrupt GOP - ignorant, cruel, incompetent. They're not hiding their indecency any longer. They're proud of it. fox59.com/indianapolit...
Are you people really going to let him get away with this???
Oh he's always been like this. Do some reading on his backstory if you don't want to sleep at night.
Do you think the people of Indiana don't know about Banks' deplorable character, they know but don't care, or they actually vote for him because he's a creep?
I don't think it's as easy as that. Indiana is a really gerrymandered state. Which means it's tough to have people running against established Republicans who have experience. We have some MAGA people, or MAGA-like people but the state is not red at the precinct level it's purple but gerrimandered
Just wow!
The only clown I see is the one downing an employee behind a wall of other employees. What a useless coward.
I guess this senator thinks that his fellow Americans who are disabled all look like clowns, including those from his own state. The same ones he claims to work for. This is not a good look for you, Senator.
Projection.
That's a mfer that needs a bullet
There's a bunch of them out there.
Agree
Who’s the 🤡?? We see him.
What a POS. Wow. Thanks for letting us know. We won't forget.
What an asshole
What a smug asshole.
Did Indiana actually vote for this arrogant jerk? Sen Jim Banks appears to be completely devoid of any empathy and compassion for a person who had just lost his job.
So is the 🍊🫏 tr**mp
With OUR money paying him for that entitlement.
And where do these blitherers think THEIR money will come from when they’ve fired most of the people who write their paycheck?
Look at all of their dead draconian eyes!!!! Remove the magats
what an arrogant piece of work - that Republican deserves to loose his seat
Vote him out. He is a disgrace
The way he hid behind two guys to insult says everything.🐔
Cowardly weasel!
A short weasel playing hardass macho alpha. Pathetic.
I was thinking the same thing, he walked to the back behind people poking his head around them...
Cowards can't bully people alone.
Angry
Casual cruelty and vicious personal attacks are the hallmark of the Republican Party. Frankly, I prefer to call someone out when they've earned it, as this failure of a human has. Banks wanted to make it clear what an absolutely gutless creep he is - and that's now on display for the world to see.
Perfectly said.
ADOLF TRUMP HITLER. ADOLF MUSK HITLER.
What a DICK
You seem like a clown‼️🤬
Out of the mouths of Republicans…. God help this country. To what depths will we sink even yet?!
They just double down on the douchery
Indiana needs to fire him! He deserves and is a clown 🤡
He should have jumped in the elevator with him Waffle House style
I would have yelled, "You're a dick! How does trump's ass taste?"
Douche bags like this feel the need to be giant dicks because... well, micro something or other.
We need to start punching Nazi douchebags again
Foul sob.
Oh, I’ve called him FAR worse the two times I’ve called in the last two days.
Republican Senator Jim Banks deserves to be fired by voters. What a callous asshole! Republicans support everything Elon and Trump are doing to decimate America, our federal govt and the lives of thousands. I’ll go to my grave saying Republicans and their party don’t give a shit about us.
Stupid pathetic motherfucking asshole is gonna stupid pathetic motherfucking asshole.
You spoke for us all. 👏🏻👏🏻
Great minds think alike!🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻
FFS. You've got some major asswipes over there.
What a POS!!! 🤬
I’d probably be in the elevator pushing his smug face into the wall behind his head.
All I could imagine was that movie “Devil”… I would have been putting my fucking thumbs in his goddamn eyes…
What a hateful, full of himself, white guy. He thinks he’s above everyone else. This is the problem with Repugs . They think they are so much better than the rest of us.
Schmucko the Clown and his crew SMH
Those people are incompetent at clowning around. How do I know this? They keep punching down.
Republicans are the worst of us. Ugh.
As a Hoosier, this is so embarrassing and disgusting. The fact that he said this, then doubled down on it again online, makes me sick. I cannot believe he is representing us for the next 6 years.
How was he voted in as a felon & sexual predator supporter, and fascist? Did you’ll have access to Trump’s Project 2025?
Start focusing your shame and disgust onto the people who elect creeps like this. Nothing changes until these idiots get put in their places and have to personally atone for the fucking mess they have made. Fuck them.
We need to be able to recall any elected public servants. Vote of no confidence.
Just physically drag him out and string him up by his balls.
Sounds perfect
Assuming he has any....
By his whatever he has available.
Sadly, there is no procedure in place for the public, but the senate has that power. Have to move heaven and earth, though, especially now
Unfortunately he isn't up for re-election until 2030. Indiana, take a good long look at who you elected.
I hate these people so much.
The American people pay for this disrespectful fool’s salary, his safety, his healthcare, and likely some sort of retirement account. Republicans can/should vote him out as soon possible!
Why? Thats what they want.
Perhaps some may see the light when reality bites?! 🤷♀️
Wishful thinking I'm afraid. Florida is a good reminder of what they think about this administration's performance.
Fire. Him.
As well I’m sure as per diem, flights to every damn where whenever he feels like it etc etc
Hey Banks, you are...
May he rot in hell.
Hard ass with his security surrounding him. Bet he’d run like a little bitch if he was cornered by himself.
They all do. Just remember Josh Hawley, or Jogs Hallway as all of us with common sense like to call him here in Missouri.
Hahaha that’s hilarious! I’m gonna start calling him that. We have Gov Ballz Little here (ID) since a big deal was made on the most important thing in idaho. Truck Nutz. We have fallen into an absurd time
You’ve got to be joking!?! Someone brought a bill based on Truck Nuts to the ID senate floor? 😳🤦🏻♀️
I wish I was kidding!
I’m shook.
What is he? 5'6"? What a little coward.
Yup he was surrounded by all the non DEI personnel too lol
That's rich. Wish we could pink slip him.
This makes my blood boil. How is he so rude and callous towards someone who lost their job and is looking for answers from their representatives. Sadly I know so many people IRL that are this guy
Conservatism is a cancer on humanity, decency, ethics, integrity, truth, and democracy.
It would seem so.
Well, he OBVIOUSLY deserves to be voted out of office and shunned by anyone with a heart.
Jim Banks (R-Indiana) telling us that there will be union manufacturing jobs? Not only is he an arrogant POS, he's a liar. Trump and Musk hate nothing more than unions.
In Indiana? The right-to-work, at-will state that has virtually no unions, aside from government employees?😂
Do you have teachers unions or postal workes in Indiana? Are the concrete workers in a union or the iron workers. Or laborers? Do you have union carpenters? TSA at airports. Yea, Trump/Musk are relentless and want more than anything to destroy peoples lives bc of their rate of pay/bene's.
They want all displays of collective power to end. Union busting, and the complete deregulation of business, is all in Project 2025.
Trump has hated unions forever. Way before Curtis Yarvin decided that life was so bad for himself that he created the worst agenda ever for his own personal revenge tour. Joined by all the "oh, poor me" billionaire club. We will win!
MIDTERMS ARE THE WAY TO END BANKS
@petebuttigieg.bsky.social should move back and run against him
What an arrogant prick.
He’s not up for reelection til 2030 but can someone start a recall petition. If there isn’t one get that proposition on the next ballot. These arseholes need to know there are repercussions.
Politicians like this often bring to mind Greg Stillson, played by Martin Sheen, in the movie adaptation of King's The Stand. I feel like they really would hold a child up in front of themselves to avoid an assassin's bullet.
Yep
I've never heard of a recall petition. Can we do it for ALL OF THEM?
We should be able to. We the people have the power.
2030? Good grief!
💯‼️
They can’t be recalled I think. Only removed by a 2/3 vote of Senate and that won’t happen.
Can try anyway. Sends a clear message people hate him.
Agree we should try all we can but there’s no mechanism here.
And he's a senator from Indiana which probably hasn't voted for a good person in even my parents' lifetime...
Your odds of being struck twice by lightnin are greater than the asshole being removed. 😷⚡
Karma can fix that. Cocky punk is due for a visit any minute… what an evil look in his eyes. 🤢
We can harass the crap out of him....force him to resign.
Seriously, Indiana, recall him for dereliction of duty.
Total jerk! He will not be re elected!!
The arrogance of these bastards is appalling
📌
The republicans are vile. They are hateful and lack empathy. In a word; sociopaths.
Fully agreed
What a piece of shit. I’ll donate to whoever runs against that asshole.
Unfortunately he just got elected, so we're stuck with six years of his assholery.
Not if he has an accident. He looks clumsy.
Maybe not if someone shoots his criminal ass.
So make his time in office as miserable as possible.
Add me to the donation list. What a MoFo. Hope he burns in Hades. Slowly
Yes
We got gerrymandered into this ass for the next 6 years. I want to apologize for Indiana's lack of voter intelligence.
Gerrymandering doesn't impact Senate seats, because they're statewide. Nope, Hoosiers were dumb enough to vote for this sack of donkey crap.
And he'll deserve it.
I hope I’m still alive to see this ass get defeated in 2031! Whoever runs against him start saving these videos, Banks may come to rue the day he was so inappropriate!
Same
Another piece of maga shit
Who meets a creep like him and goes "yeah, he is my guy, gotta vote for him" Our system is completely broken.
Desperate, broken people. …oh yeah, and hateful pieces of sh*t.
I have the same kind in my state, think Tom Cotton. He is one of the worst. So, yes, we have those voters in the majority in Arkansas. I compare their takeover to feral swines taking over the south, but obviously the US.
That’s such a HORRIBLE comparison to make. …about Feral Swine.
Swine have purpose in life. Not this despicable Repug.
The damage feral swine cause is wide-ranging and far-reaching. With populations throughout the United States, this invasive animal—with few natural predators—negatively impacts everything from agriculture, the environment to human health and public safety. (not much purpose actually)
What an ass clown but it's just another day for the GOP. Indiana's tax dollars at work.
What a complete piece of shit.💩
Omfg - America what have you become???
Once Trump, Doge, and MAGA have completed their work, we will be the very "shithole" country Trump talked about.
This isn't going to end well for you, Macky boi....
They make their absolute DISDAIN for average Americans more clear each day.
My question is, how did he know the guy wasn't a 🍊💩stain supporter? Not that's its OK to treat anyone like that, but it's not like the cult members don't work in government.
People vote for shitheads like that? 😮
It looks increasingly likely that people are now being told that they can’t be in the GOP unless they are complete assholes, and everyone who makes it in is competing to be the biggest asshole.
I said that for 10 years now. Lol because they don't really care about freedoms unless it's a freedom to be an asshole. Literally.
You, Bank’s, seem like a piece of shit!
I have seen this a couple of times, and I just shake my damn head.... seriously. Wow.
Meanwhile, after seeing this, other Republicans high five him. Boebert & Marj first in line. I just can't believe how utterly cruel they ALL are. What happened in their childhood to turn out such mean, vindictive pple?
Believe it.
It's all about power. The insecure having power.
Just remember this when they want your mercy, and give them none.
I assume none of them have struggled a day in their lives.
send him your thoughts. I just did. www.banks.senate.gov/contact/
BoBo and Marj are probably trying to set appointments to perform fellatio on him because that kind of cruelty no, doubt turns, them on...

Forwarded to all Americans. I'm Canadian.
As a US Senator, Banks is literally a federal worker. Yes, elected; still, one whose paycheck comes from a federal budget. Putting him in the same federally-paid bucket as other federal workers. Huh. Does he know?
They all are onnthe endangered species list #MAGA #Republicans will be extinct in #Midterms. Time to take out the knives.
Because they are disgustingly cruel narcissists.
In the case of Elon and Trump Im pretty sure they never got any love from their fathers. And here we are now. Governed by psychopaths.
Despicable pig! What gets me too are the robots surrounding him. Not a flinch at his horrid remarks. No souls.
If Senator Banks unzipped in that elevator, they would all fight to be the first to get at his mini pickle 🙄
He won his Senate seat by 20 points last year. He's not losing that seat. He can be an awful person because he's going to get away with it.
Let’s all prove 412whahlen wrong. Come on! A lot can happen between now and 2030. If you still have elections by then !
I would love for him to lose, but it's not realistic. Believe me, I hope I'm wrong and he loses in 2030!!
I am sorry if this came across as rude. I should have worded it differently. One of these days/years we will have decent people in office. 🙏
In a country awash with guns I’d say this guy is playing with fire. Just an observation from someone thousands of miles away.
It's his base that are always shooting everyone, which is why it hasn't happened...yet.
Hypocrisy. He obviously doesn’t care about the little people.
Going down, Senator?
...but who's going down on who ?
The entendre is at least triple.
That isn't a US Senator. That's a cowardly piece of shit insulting a former employee while hiding behind four bigger men. Typical Republican, in other words.
Nothing matters when Trump takes every problem he makes to the SC knowing the American taxpayer pays? Two months ago Trump promised to lower food prices then he couldn't get that $450M to cover?
😧
Don’t you just feel that Christian love rolling off of him. Jesus must be so darn proud.
People elected this asshole? How horrible was his opponent? How stupid are his constituents? Of course,he probably could be re-elected. Cruelty is all the rage now.
I ask these questions of so many of the elected on the right! It makes me scared to go to their districts and experience their constituents
How dare he!!! He’s a US senator and he works FOR the people of this country. What a loser!
These people come to our restaurants, stores, hotels, offices, neighborhoods, schools. Decline to serve them.
No, these senators don't travel in the same space as working Americans.
Some of the time. They still have to eat, poop, breathe, walk, vacation, purchase stuff and services, get mail and spend time with their mistress and families. They don’t live on Mars.
They make $180,000.00 at least a year with travel, retirement, and health benefits. They DO NOT live in the same world as those of us trying to make it on half that with zero benefits.
sen. banks is a POS, he votes align perfectly with Heritage Foundation, the writer's of Project 2025. A horrible and heinous human and that goes for Heritage too.
These MOFOS must feel REALLY CONFIDENT that there will be no more elections so they can treat their own constituents blatantly horrible because they’re now lifetime appointments?!?!!?😱🤬😤🫣
Don’t they realize that kings don’t need cabinets or congresses? They’re abdicating their way to the unemployment line. What morons! #Resist

What an @-hole! 🤬
By nature, I'm not a violent person BUT... I would have fed him his teeth! He has little man syndrome 🤏 💯
#punyman
✅️✅️
When they act like that, that shows he's not there for his contingency anymore and it's time he gets voted out!
💥💥
Do you think that flunkie could stand in one spot No food no pee pee or 💩 breaks for 25 hours a 4 minutes !
Not many could! One has to be in really good shape to stand for that long. What did he do when he had to p?
First line of defense diapers Last line is a pee bag on his leg 🤷♂️
Ah, okay. 🫤
He said he stopped drinking water on Sunday, and stopped eating on friday.
Or something else. I’m sure he’s gotta live in the neighborhood. If he’s got such a problem with working people, no one should serve him. He comes in your restaurant, tell him to get out. He comes in your store, tell him to get out.
Spot on! And hopefully he will after this disgusting display.

Injured or deceased..
El Salvador 🇸🇻 or this ⚰️
Yes!!
🧐Probably sooner than later 👀👊
His toxic mansplaining would set me off! 💥
⏰⏳⌛️
Anyone have bail?? 😂
Agree He is definitely a Richard Cranium.
😂
YEP.
Tiny, tiny man.
He’s too stupid to realize that the fed he insulted was originally hired due to a program that Congress, inluding Republicans, established by law. That’s the ONLY reason fed workers exist!!
Little ugly aging man syndrome, I'd say.
Punching fascist should be legal.
🎯
It’s Lawless25, baybee.
Yes it should!
Whatever happened to waiting for these guys in the parking lot after work?
They have security but I like how you think! 🤨
Security are meat sacks just like all of us. 🤷♂️
Punk ass bitch syndrome…
I'm guessing that 😾 isn't on Bluesky..
Yasssss!!
I have moments at times. This would have been one of those times. Motherfucker! 🤬🤬🤬
I have bursts but having been in law enforcement, I try to control myself. I'm a tall, formidable chick and I'm not all mouth like that cretin.
Yeah, I'm 65, but get me mad, and I could take out at least two or three of them.
Same, Tammie! 💪🤨
I'm a 69 year old Vietnam combat veteran. I'm in shape like Sylvester Stallone. I could make republicans pee their pants.
I'd pay to see that except I'd be right there with you watching and instigating..
Yeah. I would have stepped into that elevator and he would not have stepped out. He’s a short little prick.
With a big mouth. Did you see anyone around him who didn't look like they were interns. We could have taken him, Keith..
I'm totally with you on that. Violence is not my go to card but I'm getting angry enough that I might have to play it. Trying to find good trouble to curb that desire.
It must be that taking Ivermectin has other benefits, it tends to make your teeth as strong as that of horses. He seems pretty confident with it. Anyhow, he knows he can get away with it and be rewarded by the MAGAts.
I came to say this
Fighting words are a thing.
That they are!
Small dick energy.
Amen!
My first thought is that he and Mike Johnson are really good friends- but in a totally alpha male way.
Alpha? They are zetas for zeros.
Look at the frat bros accompanying him trying not to laugh in the elevator. That's the future right there if we don't stop this shit, and soon!
Right? Robotic. The future looks bleak with drones like that just going along with the despicable rhetoric being spewed from those heartless cretins.
We are a damaged people.
Those 20somethings are scary shit! Next gen in Congress. 😬
Yeah, the Joshua generation is coming for us.
?
Homeschooled boys and bros who are primed to enter and influence politics with evangelical fundamentalism as young as 12 years old. en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Generat...
Ugh..😑 Thanks for the explanation!
Thank you.
Thanks, I suspected as much, but also thought it may have been the title of a horror film. Then again…
Both can be true.
So true!
Thank you for this! It is always great to learn more about how this faction has destroyed America
Is attempting to destroy America with the replacement theories of America First. They have won yet.
First they called them Karen’s, but I did not protest because I was not named Karen… Well FML
As a Joshua…can we call it something else?
This Karen is hoping for you.
Banks is obviously a giant prick that has failed upward like all his cohorts in the white boys club who mistake their mediocrity as deserving of reward.
🎯
Oooh, well said Laura!
Preach!
Dick
Brad, Chad, Doug to name a few.
I sympathise.
I second that emotion.
I think there are total c*nts across all generations.
I hope this helps. 🙏
Wait. They're called Joshuas? I've been calling them Kyles.
😂
The skinny, weak frat bros he's standing behind. They're counting on him not reacting violently.
We could take them! 🤣
💯🎯 little pricks
Yep, you are right. That looks like the daft little twat big balls.
I am reminded of the elevator scene in Godfather. 🤷🏻♂️🤷🏻♂️🤷🏻♂️
Yes!
Maybe I have to look at it again, but I was actually impressed that they seemed like they had no inclination to laugh.
Tiny pe... rsonality some might say...
🤭🤏
People on both sides fear violence from the MAGA side, not the antiMAGA side. I think it’s why some republican senators decided to support Trump nominees, and it’s why some democrats aren’t more aggressively challenging MAGA. These cowards love their positions, so they won’t resign. 1/4
Those on the right who employ stochastic terrorism haven’t experienced significant consequences. The law, even during the Biden admin, has been slow and weak (see Alex Jones). Now it encourages them. Frankly, giving these folks reason to fear the antiMAGA side might help restore balance. 2/4
Not sure what your point is. Stochastic violence is being employed by the right already, without consequences. Even against their own. They have no reason to stop. I know that in my life, when someone tries to bully me, quickly let them know there will be consequences. It works.
I'm thinking aloud here. I'm trying to imagine taking the mechanism of stochastic terrorism and using it to increase the success of nonviolent civil resistance. Many of my ideas turn out to be unworkable; however that doesn't seem to stop me from putting them out there.
All I want to do is make people who engage in stochastic terrorism realize they can be victims of it too, so that they have incentive to stop.
You're not wrong!
Most of us understand that the Golden Rule developed as most humans figured out that cooperation works better than fighting, while other violence prone humans simply realize that others can hit back. For it to work, there has to be a credible threat of hitting back. 3/4
This doesn’t mean to engage in violence. It means you need to use language in such a way that they aren’t sure what you are capable of and that you will defend yourself. We can’t allow the intimidation to flow in only one direction. They will stop only after we start. Consequences. 4/4
He does.
😡🤬🤬
Hey Mack....your a giant asshole!
Jim Banks grew up in a trailer park in a small predominantly white village of Columbia City, Indiana. Now that he's made it to the big time, he's a smug asshole who only answers to his political donors, while disrespecting constituents. He went from a net worth of $145k to $14.5 million in 2 years.
How the hell did he become a millionaire?
Gee, wonder how he made that much money, paid off?
I live in his hometown. And yes, he is a smug jerk.
Arrogant, uncaring and entitled, is no way to serve the best interests of the people. Republicans suck!
Yes, Reptilian Republicans are the worst of Americans.
Reptiles are offended by that sir!
I concur… there is nothing on this earth more evil nor selfish than a man. You are so right the reptiles are simply being and holding their place in our ecosystem. Man is suppose to be the thinkers, today they are simply succumbing to their lesser angels. Maga feelings have replaced intelligence.
Hey man not cool 😆😆
That certainly doesn’t look like a Republican to me. Look at all that personality.
Complicit Republicans are sub-genus species. So please dont insult our reptile friends. Regular Republicans at least can be classified as con-men derived from the ideology of CONservative governMENt.
The one emotional through-line in the current backlash against anything pro-social is the spitefulness, vindictiveness and cruelty that comes from putting "owning the libs" above anything else.
This is why I will never consider voting for a republicon or a “conservative” American until that party is fumigated and thoroughly dreloused to my satisfaction. Until then, anyone willingly associating with these pigs deserves to be shunned from civil society
Be careful to A. Avoid falling into the same "hate" trap that these individuals have fallen into. Keep your compassion alive. and also B. DO INSIST ON ACCOUNTABILITY FOR THEIR ACTIONS. Societies that fall into "hate" camps have little chance of long-term peaceful resolution (re: middle east)
You got that right!
Do the Jews have a legit hatred of nazis? There is a point at which one cannot be a doormat.
I'm thinking of the South African model of Justice and Reconciliation as a path to a stronger, better state, rather than the ingrained hatred of the "other" we see in failed states such as DRC, Rowanda, Bosnia, Israel/Palestine etc... There is no path forward without accountability and moving on.
In Germany, the Neuremburg Trials provided a portion of accountability for the "worst of the worst" Nazis, but many folks who voted for them & went along with their evil, eventually went on to live otherwise unremarkable lives. Some Jews even went so far as to advocate for compassion (Victor Frankl)
Many nazis moved to S America
And several were brought to justice. It's not a perfect system, but it's better than continued hate and destruction.
Yes, I agree. Hate is the weakest emotion. Love & kindness are strongest. (But, these greedy, hateful, frightened people think kindness is weak-maybe because they are weak? 🤔)
ABSODAMNFUCKINGLOUTELY
❤️
I think this is who a lot of them were to begin with. Trump gave them permission to go mask-off.
Look up Banks = Dick
Republicans think they don't work for the people. They have contempt for the people, even their own constituents
That smug smile needs to be cut off his face with my heavy-duty fabric shears.
I love your imagination and if that actually happens to him I will forget about this post immediately.
Thank you. 😉
Good heavens no! Not the fabric scissors! Now if you want all round damage… a nice crusty, rusty pair with a semi sharp edge should do an excellent job
Ha! Excellent points.
When Congresspeople are more performative than substantive. The performatives seem to be gaining majority.
Time someone luigi his ass!
To luigi someone is now a verb
I know right 🤣
Dick
They all use the same script... I have heard the "you/they probably deserved it" about 4,567 times now...
Because maga thinks that being an obtuse a hole is macho. Having a victim means you’re a man in Trumpistan.
📌
Stupid ass Hoosier clown!
Don’t paint Hoosiers as clowns. Banks is a clown.
That is exactly what they said. No one painted all Hoosiers as clowns. That post was specific to that Hoosier clown.
He thinks that he is safe and that he can do anything, and say anything he wants because he was just elected to his term. And given his arrogant behavior you can bet that he has some hidden exploitable foibles that we can find. So lets find them and get rid of this jackass.
That’s the spirit!
He's going to give ted cruz a run for most hated person in the senate by his peers.
He must resign. That is totally disqualifying. They all want to act like trump and please their daddy.

I’ve emailed him and our other Senator, Todd Young, several times a week since Trump took office. I received one response from Banks early on saying Trump has a mandate. I haven’t received any other responses from him. So disappointing but not unexpected.
I left a message.
Thanks, Hedy. I did, and I really hope lots of Hoosiers do, too.
lol this here number has a full mailbox. I wonder why…
he should resign. who does he thinks he works for. arrogant assholes like this are the big problem
These officials just living off the government dole, amirite?
they have forgotten who they work for. It’s the people and each person should be respected. They are just there for lobbyist kickbacks and insider trading.
Wow. They must have totally done away with free and fair elections because WTFF. I feel like I’ve been slapped across the face 18 times for just trying to live my life.
1000% #ResignJimBanks
This is what they really think of the middle class they claim to care and want to fight for during the campaign trail. I just wish more people could see it. Keep in mind, in reality, there is no one Trump despises more than his base.
Fire 🔥 GOP Congress
Look at that tiny little man hiding behind his teenage protégés
Kakistocracy.
Worst ever.
Should be nowhere near power. Indiana do better.
This how a Senator who works for the American people responds to a citizen. Fuck Banks and his security detail paid by you and me!!
Start with the 5 Fvcking collaborators on SCOTUS . .
Too bad the elevator didn't have a little accident.
Banks has an inverted penis, obviously.
😂😂😂😂😂
Because, deep down, the GOP believe that the sick, poor and victims of misfortune have somehow always brought it upon themselves. They could have lifted themselves by their bootstraps but they just don’t want to.
The irony is that these politicians are the biggest welfare recipients. They’re thieves and the lowest pond scum in our country. Especially Banks. They’d sell their grandma into the slave trade if they thought they could get a fair price for her. The guy is absolute garbage.
Exactly. No self-awareness, no humility, no empathy. Just a massive sense of entitlement.
What really raises my ire about these people is their willingness to sup the poison of self-righteous condemnation.
And the Christian Nationalist feel strongly that Christ does not like these people. "Jesus loves me but he doesn't love you, sorry."
A shame that these supposed ‘Christians’ interpret (or simply lie about) the teachings of Jesus so wrongly.
And have for so long. I like that ad out now.Jesus, he gets all of us.❤️❤️
I heard the head of a testosterone-poisoned investment firm say “if women were smarter, they’d be men. Heh-heh-heh.” Republicans think the “wrong” gender or race, or any disadvantaged health or financial status is the result of poor choices.
Including when it comes to your choice of parents.
…or God says they deserve the misfortune. Always a winner with this crowd.
Yes, the ‘God hates you because you are unworthy in His eyes’ message. Very Old Testament, before Woke Jesus came along.
Repubs think empathy is a weakness. Fuck them!
This rude and crude gutless ass kisser made sure he was completely in the elevator with staff as human shields before firing off his insult. Poster boy for cowardice.
They act as though they'll never find themselves alone in a dark alley some day. ⌛️
#comeuppance is in the wings
So very true!
That part
Where's the spare Mario Bro when one needs him, huh?
Some day…
None of these people should be able to go out in public without being harassed every where they go. They should know no quarter.
This is MAGA Sen Jim Banks (R-IN) #NewProfilePic on X, following his disrespectful and arrogant response to Musk-fired HHS man. www.9news.com/article/news... Trump isn't eliminating WASTE. He's eliminating DEMOCRACY with the help of MAGA JIM BANKS! This is Indiana's finest? He represents HIMSELF!
Let everyone know what a piranha this evil ugly freak is!! Shun and sham him forever!
Sen. Banks (R-IN) needs a crash course in his role and responsibilities, as well as a reminder of his OATH OF OFFICE. He SERVES his constituents, NOT Trump. Bank's swore to "support and defend the Constitution", not the illegal and corrupt acts of a #ConvictedFraud, to save his $175K+/yr job. SHAME!
Well to be fair he's a 'Republican' Senator which kind of goes with no heart, no brains, no ability to speak for people.
Banks has always been a venomous little weasel. Why would he change now that he feels some power?
Vote these true clowns out folks... hes showing off in front of his boyfriends...
Absolutely inexcusable for a Senator to speak to anyone like that.
Agree. That was beyond rude.
Ohio is no better except Ohios senators let their minions do the dirty work and run everyone into the ground. They have been absent since the election.
I haven’t heard a peep out of Jim Jordan in years it seems. I have a friend that lives in Ohio so that’s why I know what state he resides in.
He’s too afraid to have a town hall.he also has a gerrymandered district. One he drew himself. The only way he would have one is to prescreen attendees. I haven’t heard anything out of his foul mouth since the inauguration. Don’t want to either. He’s part of the problem with no solutions.
That was Jim Banks of Indiana. This is a question of respect. #TeamTreason
I don’t know you, but I would frame this sketch.
Well look at who lead them from there. Mothers little boy, the spineless VP Mike pence...
Mitch Daniels was before Pence. He’s another one.
Mitch Daniels used his last bottle of asshole juice to tear apart my university before leaving Purdue.
Yes he did. I hate seeing his name on a street. We use the veterinary hospital.
Crossroads, my ass! That has been a line of bullshit for years.
When is the strike?
I will be there in my state.
Both Moreno (used car salesman and grifter) and Husted (Portman jr) are useless and major wussies. They have both handed their vote over to Trump.
Yet another mediocre immature manbaby wannabe. Almost undoubtedly a #traitortrump supporter. Sad at best.
This doosh lord needs to be fired now!!!
Trash
So, which of the other four guys ISN'T a rent boy?
senator, #Repent

done & thank you
Done. Thank you for the information. I am from Indiana and I am appalled by Sen. Banks' behavior.
I’m from Indiana too and I left him a brutal message. What a jackass!!!
Vote his ass out!!!!
Can't vote him out for another five years.
Wow
Paging @meidastouch.com @bmeiselas.bsky.social @briantylercohen.bsky.social
This is why you should NEVER vote for a REPUBLICAN! Shameful Congressman!
What a complete douche.
I would have said "you're confusing me with a mirror"
How did these people forget that they work for us.
We let them. Narcissists starting seeking public office because of the 24/7 camera and celebrity. 🤢 So that’s who is attracted to “public service” now. I’m old enough to remember when real people not over-groomed egos worked for us.
Social media and 24 hour channel "news" has probably made it worse. Plus the voters are consumed with reality TV and social media and can no longer tell reality from fiction.
Exactly …Trump’s comment ‘this’ll make great TV’ when he & Vance attacked Zelenskyy
They don't work for us. They work for Trump and answer to Musk.
He gave them permission to be their worst selves.
Because they stopped working for us and started working for the billionaires. Sure are a lot of sociopaths in our government.
Let me guess the definition of "alpha" hide behind people before shooting your mouth off. These men are pathetic.
I've worked in the IT field for close to 40 years. Alpha is the earliest, bug filled version of software. A Beta isn't much better until the final release (even then 🙄) Revenge of the Needs!
Haha posted for some reason thinking you were talking about movies. I put this whole game dev thing together with alpha and beta. Haha its been a long day. You are absolutely right.
Hahaha. Glad you did. I figured you'd catch it as a coder 😉
What an uncaring, pompous ass hat
Update re. Sen. Banks and his hateful remarks. He was interviewed on CNN a short time ago-no surprise-he declined to apologize, said the man asking the question was an “leftwing activist”not a federal employee and indicated he would not change his remarks.A true MAGA windbag:no character, no facts.
And you...no character and no facts. Your feelings betray you
What does that tell you about the people who elect him?
Everybody who speaks out is a left wing activist.
That Banks thinks it’s okay to treat someone like this because they don’t share his politics is the entire problem.
Empathy is not part of his vocabulary.
💯
These assholes hurl allegations and accusations at people without any proof and 0 thought about impacts. This guy should sue the ever-loving shit out of Banks for his CNN commentary. Also: Senator Banks is a devotee of coprophagia, delivered directly from Trump's diaper. Or probably.
What a pompous, ignorant, arrogant, disrespectful jerk. A disgrace as a person, certainly as a senator.
Especially as a senator. Those people not getting benefits? Those are his constituents.
Absolutely true. It’s impossible to know whether being in a position of political power went to his head - or whether he was always this contemptuous. In either event, such a person should never hold office as he reveals himself as not giving a damn about others.
Being elected as a Republican seems to give people license to be their very worst selves.
He's always been an arrogant prick; it's just that now his security entourage is larger.
World let me introduce you to the Hoosier version of Ted Cruz Jim Banks has always been a complete piece if shit
Look at the little coward. He is hiding behind the taller guys so that he can insult a constituent he doesn't even know. How do these assholes keep getting elected?
Because the democrats have conceded unnecessarily Indiana speaking as a blue dot in a red state.
Same. Alabama girl here 🙄
Indiana has been gerrymandered in favor of Republicans so they can basically never lose. Sucks to live in the same state as that asshat
True, but the only way to make any changes is one seat at a time if that is what it takes. Start with the first goal of getting rid of the supermajority and go from there. 2026, if we are lucky, could be a step in that direction.
Ohio has too! We've got to get these gerrymandering folks OUT. Maybe this disaster will help?🤷♀️
Same with Texas.
What, you live in Virgina? That's where jimANON lives.
Democrats might want to offer a town hall in this POS’s district.
They should.
Gov. Walz needs to Town Hall this jerky Senator Banks from IN!
Wow, that is one lousy clownish “senator”! Banks is MAGA GOP’s terrible “Senator” poster boy. Hadn’t heard about this short jerk. Looked him up. A new junior Senator from IN who should not be reelected. This performance is a campaign commercial! en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jim_Banks

They’re keeping busy over on his wiki page removing the recent revisions. 😂
Exactly right. That would make the perfect campaign commercial for whoever wants to run against him.
Fuck him!
@nbcnews.com @cbsnews.com how was this not a lead off this morning. 🤦♀️
Because of the cowards in the media. Oh, by the way, every one of them is a coward.
This really should be on the Indianapolis news for all Indiana residents to see. Unfortunately he just started his first term...
This tit has an "MBA" from some place called Grace Seminary or some such shyt. So I guess he's, like, what, doing God's work!?! So, chill former HHS employee, he knows what he's doing. Geeez. (Ffffffffffffck these people are our SENATORS!?!?!?? Jesus Fcking Christ!)
Just awful fcking people. Can you imagine being such a prick and with such delight? I mean, I can. But only if you'd animate me as a villain in some shyty modern Batman comic.
@wyden.senate.gov can you do something for me and chew that jerk out for being a disgraceful jerk? People are losing money and their ability to live in their house. We've got to stand up for people that they refuse to listen to. Obviously. Can you and a few others go talk to him please.
What a disgusting pig. I hope Indiana remembers this and votes him out asap
He is safe. He is in until 2030. Just won in 2024. They will forget about his bad behavior by 2030.
They won't. He will probably win his next election.
They all have the mentality of a two year old.
This is truly disgusting! Fascist hate at it's finest! Sad we have become this!
WTF?
Arrogant prick!
Are you listening to this, constituents? Do the right thing and show this piece of shit the door at the ballot box
No kidding, right? C’mon Indiana! I thought you were smarter than this. He’s rude, condescending, egotistical and lacking any level of human kindness. This should play as an ad for a year before his next election go—around.
There should be immediate consequence for this and not wait for an election period. The public can demand an apology and call for resignation.

Sounds good… but a lot of people are loving this type of behavior, they will only stop loving it when it hurts them, not their looser cousin or crazy sister… maybe nana being kicked out of the nursing home could change their minds…maybe…
You’re right of course and it’s coming, their FAFO moment is just around the corner. Guarantee it.
Exactly!!!! They don’t care till it affects them. PERIOD!
🎯😡🤬
I hope IN voters remember in 2030 when his term is up.
That's the problem--his constituents are fucking idiots. Believe me, I have lived in Indiana nearly my entire life and have seen things go right in the toilet over the past 15 years. All Banks has to do is blame Dems for something and he will continue to win by 15% or so. That's the mindset. 1/n
His attitude is a plus to his constituency as they've never been taught to think critically. Our town is 5x the population as in 1989 because IL folks who hate Dems have moved over the line and vote for shit like Banks even if they are educated as they blame high taxes anywhere on Dems. 2/n
Our town had a balanced council 30 years ago & a Dem council president. Can't recall last time we had a Dem primary for town council--it's just the totally goofy GOPers versus the slight saner GOPers in the GOP primary, and that's it. There was not even a general election for town offices last time!
That’s just sad. And wrong.
Dem friends were appointed to town boards over the years, but most quit before their terms ended. Couldn't tolerate the BS. Biggest housing development in town has 3 main builders, all allowed their billboards to be extended upward and tarped over with T signs in 2016, 2020, & 2024. Disgusting.
The utter unfairness with which Republicans operate is just so frustrating and demoralizing.
I should add that DRHorton is one of those builders. The other two are regional. Unsure why their corporate HQ approved of that. Then again, a realtor I know said she does her best to discourage progressives from moving here now as she knows they will be unhappy. 1/2
Wow! Says a lot (good) about her.
What sucks is that price appreciation here for older homes has lagged the US as a whole. We'd move to a more progressive area but even with massive downsizing in retirement, we'd pay more to buy a place plus higher property taxes for the rest of our lives. 2/2
Yeah, moving would be a disastrous decision. For the reasons you listed. Plus, potentially making a mortgage longer than what they would have to pay if they stayed where they are
They’re likely just like he is.
And now he's doubling down. Fuck the clown!
what an asshole
SMH
JFC this guy needs an attitude adjustment
Send this to Jim Banks constituents
They love that stuff. He owned a liberal parasite! Rude and mean is what MAGA is all about.
Typical GOP response: I got mine, eff you.
Senator Banks is a 🤡
Banks is another one who could step off a curb, without looking both ways, and make countless people happy....🤨
"seem" not "look"
"seem" not "look". What does that mean?
Somebody should doxx him He's acting a lot like a 1700s French monarch and needs to be put back in his place
He will have to learn to not be proud of that moment.
That's up to you, citizens.
It’s not a flattering image. Makes him look small, or in other words, to scale.
Looks like someone never learned what respect and empathy is !! Well maybe he needs a new job so he can work that out.
Was that "big balls" with him?
I thought the same!!
Why do we need to wait for an election? Start using this as an ad NOW.
Trump has been campaigning since what? 2015? As much as I hate the constant campaigns, Dems will have to start doing the same thing.
Agreed. We have to make sure all Americans see how little some of these guys care about them.
That should be the exact message.
Excellent idea! Reality is the birthplace of creativity. I hope someone uses this!👏🫶👍❤️❤️🙂🙂
THIS is a GOOD idea.
Dems use it for the mid terms!!
They won't. Literally seconds after the Booker speech a Dem helped the Republicans in a confirmation hearing.
Oh geez. Here we go. They take every opportunity to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory.
mother fucker, what a pile of shit
See it’s happening now it’s how you look. Women will be required to wear excessive make and have fillers and Botox injections in their face like maralargo roadies before they can be humiliated.
##NOFUCKINGTHIRDTERM
2026
Sasly we are stuck with him until 2030.
Wow, what a douche bag Banks is! Very representative of his party!
