      >Republican Senator Roger Marshall wants Americans to stop complaining about gas prices because they’re necessary for “national security.”

      >Speaking on Newsmax’s Wake Up America Tuesday morning, Marshall was asked about the Iran war, and the Kansas politician was dismissive of its negative economic effects on the American people.

      >“I’m sorry the gas prices are going up, but help is on its way, and your national security, yes, is even more important than your pocketbook,” Marshall said.

      >Marshall doubled down when asked how long Americans would be paying higher energy costs, saying, “I think back to my grandparents and their generation that served in World War II.”

      >“Could you imagine trying to tell the president, ‘Look, you only got so many days to defeat Hitler or defeat Japan?’ We have to do it ’til we get the outcome that we want. I hope it’s weeks and not months, but at the end of the day, Americans are going to be safer,” Marshall said.

    2. Maybe they could put the same effort into prosecuting the pedophiles in the epstein files…

      So they ran against Biden because prices were too high and they were worried he would go to war with Iran….

      Eat s**t and die peasants! What do I care about gas?

      Based on financial disclosures, Senator Roger Marshall’s estimated net worth was roughly $6.05 million as of mid-2023. His portfolio has included significant trade volume, with over 150 trades reported, and his wealth grew from an estimated $3.77 million in 2017.

      So he and his billionaire buddies should be more than happy to pay for it then, since it’s such a good investment.

      And the death of the elderly is worth the freedom to disregard COVID precautions; the death of sick children is worth dropping Medicaid so money can transfer to the military; the hunger experienced by low-income citizens is worth the pain of tariffs, etc. Seems GOP doesn’t give a shit about the majority of us citizens.

      I smell a nice democratic campaign sound bite here come midterm elections to let the people remember.

    9. Worth it how, 3/4 of Americans side with Iran now because of trumps incompetence.

    10. Soooo totally worth it for him to see everyone else suffer for a war that citizens are paying for but didn’t want.

    11. In a just world, we could sue these morons (and their major donors) for costing us money by supporting an illegal war.

      I’m not worried about gas prices personally That doesn’t mean I can’t have compassion for my fellow Americans. Along with healthcare and food security.

      Killing women and children -and sending our teenagers and young adults in to murder them and be killed themselves- is more important than the economy here at home, where food and gas are killing us.

      I fixed it.

      No idiot boy, it’s not. There was a deal in place where weapons grade uranium was being inspected and shipped out. Plus Iran signed the nuclear non-proliferation treaty. It was only when Trump cancelled the deal that they stopped following the agreement.

      Once again, another Trump fuckup caused a crisis. And now, you people have no clue what you’re doing or have a way to get out of this clusterfuck.

      Safer from *whom* exactly, Senator?

      From 200 schoolgirls?

    16. “Killing people is more important than helping working people in any meaningful way” -old rich guy from the guardians of pedos party

      Can’t believe people fall for this stupidity and keep voting for these turds. Hoping this November we get better people in there who know how to do their job properly and uphold the Constitution.

    18. Remember, all of these people have millions of dollars sitting in their bank accounts. The prices dont effect them at all. Eat the rich, feed the poor.
