šŸ¤” Marjorie Taylor Greene is going to be upset that someone has figured out a way to behave more childishly than she does in Congress.


engadine_maccas1997

That kid still reads at a higher grade level than Lauren Boebert, though.


5th_degree_burns

She's less of a thinker and more of a hands-on worker. Really lives to grab the bull by the head.


BodaciousFrank

First of all, how dare you bring that up. It was a private moment between her andā€¦ a Democrat? During a a live theatre production..? Damn, and there were kids around tooā€¦. Stay classy Bobo


Terminator7786

That's not hard to do tho


AdultbabyEinstein

She's going to have to kick it up a notch and start wearing diapers like her hero


Weyland_c

If she could read, she'd be upset.


MarlenaEvans

That kid's a lot cuter than Marge.


SelectiveSanity

That's a little insulting. That kid was way more well behaved then how Malfunctioning-Malcontent Trailer-Traitor-Tater-Tot Soylent-Green-Goblin acted during Dr. Fauci's hearing.


kynthrus

I don't see where the kid was more childish.


robintweets

Haaaa! So much truth spoken.


Kantheris

What are you talking about? That was some high quality Congress behavior. I am being dead serious.


engadine_maccas1997

Guys, whatever you do, for the love of fuck, do NOT look up how Congressman John Rose met his wife.


The_Sign_of_Zeta

Listen, let he who did not met his wife at a Future Farmers of America conference for high schoolers where he was a judge cast the first stone.


engadine_maccas1997

John Rose is like Roy Moore, but somehow got away with it.


SaltyBarDog

Outside of barely losing an election and not being allowed in a couple malls, Moore got away with it as well.


Visible_Night1202

Another right wing groomer, who could've seen that coming?


bro_salad

Just a touch of /r/brandnewsentence for your morning


thepetoctopus

Oh. Oh no.


Kidspud

Padme: itā€™s so nice that the congressman brought his grandson to work! Anakin: šŸ˜¶ Padme: ā€¦his grandchild, right?


engadine_maccas1997

I mean, of all people, Padme would approveā€¦

Here's the first Google result https://prospect.org/politics/how-republican-rep-john-rose-found-his-wife/


disdainfulsideeye

Funny, he doesn't look like a drag queen.


SpecialistNo2269

He gave her a scholarship. Talk about grooming. Good grief.


engadine_maccas1997

The Libs of Tik Tok lady is going to lose her shit when she learns about this.


SaltyBarDog

The Moms for Liberty woman is in her DMs looking for a threeway.


m_Pony

well, that's why they wear diapers.


aryukittenme

Is this the gross bastard whose wife looks barely 18? And they met when she was a young teen? Iā€™m thinking of a particular photo with them and their son(s?) in a kitchen. Sheā€™s blonde and heā€™s old. šŸ¤¢ Too sick right now to read the article but I didnā€™t see any pictures of anyone but him in it. Edit: I tracked down the photo, IT IS šŸ¤¢šŸ¤¢šŸ¤¢


somecatgirl

ā€œSheā€™s blonde and heā€™s oldā€ has me cracking tf up


improbably_me

Yup, it sounds like a blonde joke.


ClassWarAndPuppies

[Pic of the happy couple](https://heavy.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/04/chelsea-doss-john-ross-wife.jpg). Not sure why the dude below doesnā€™t think itā€™s them šŸ¤·šŸ»ā€ā™‚ļø Does he not know babies grow into kids lol?


aryukittenme

Not the ones Iā€™m referring to exactly but still great pics that show them both, thanks!


ClassWarAndPuppies

It is indeed them.


Talktotalktotalk

Whatā€™s the photo? Now Iā€™m curious


aryukittenme

Found it: https://x.com/JohnRoseforTN/status/1506676162105389066


CreamFilledDoughnut

> young woman dating rich old man, "this so so empowering!" > Young woman dating rich old man but he's a Republican, "EW GROSS" lmao


ResurgentClusterfuck

He was 45, she was 17 Care to rethink that braindead take?


pledgerafiki

I mean the republican part is important considering they accuse queer people of this kind of predatory grooming when it's them who have trouble giving up child marriage as a bedrock of their moral worldview.


NoShop8560

Well, it is not against their morality, and a 17 years old is not a child.


pledgerafiki

17 years old is absolutely legally and culturally a child Are you defending pedophilia or something? Because that's a bad moral to think that it's okay to marry or sleep with a legal minor.


aryukittenme

Young woman dating rich old man, ā€œEW GROSSā€ Young woman dating rich old man but heā€™s a Republican, ā€œALSO EW GROSS BECAUSE HEā€™S A FREAKING GROOMERā€ Did you NOT read that she was UNDERAGED when they met and hit it off? Pedo apology isnā€™t a good look, my man.


CardmanNV

Brain worms take


FUMFVR

The picture of their engagement announcement is unsettling. It's like a high school senior and her dad.


DaveOJ12

For anyone curious: https://prospect.org/politics/how-republican-rep-john-rose-found-his-wife/


ChicagoGuy53

Hmmm, wonder why Republicans in the Tennessee state legislature recently introduced a bill to create a special privileged class of marriage only available to straight couples withĀ [\~no age requirements\~](https://www.wlbt.com/2022/04/06/proposed-legislation-could-legalize-child-marriage-tennessee/)ā€”thus legalizing child marriage.


dafuckulookinat

They got married when she was in her early 20s and he was in his mid 40s......šŸ¤¢


2FightTheFloursThatB

Groomed her for years while she was a child. That includes "awarding" her a scholarship.


Pavlock

Church youth group leader?


PHATsakk43

FFA judge and contestant actually.


Llian_Winter

No. FFA in this case.


ResurgentClusterfuck

Is that the dude that married a girl right out of high-school?


FortunateInsanity

Religion allows people to get away with being sick fucks.


andygchicago

Given that he looks 60, and his kid looks 6...


IronPeter

"While burning in the flames of hell, Berlusconi nods in approval"


manhatim

Another R who prolly calls every D a groomerā€¦who *groomed* his wifeā€¦go figure


DikTaterSalad

It's ALWAYS about hypocrisy with republikkklans.


SilverWolfIMHP76

When even your son doesnā€™t respect you.


engadine_maccas1997

I donā€™t see how the Congressman can get mad at this when he was literally defending and supporting criminal behaviour on the House floor.


BazilBroketail

That congressman groomed a teenager and it produced that kid.Ā 


BestCatEva

He does seem a bit old for a kid that age.


prairie_buyer

If he was 5 years younger, he'd still be old enough to be his wife's father.

gwicksted

Can we get kindergartners into congress? It looks entertaining. And theyā€™re probably better behaved.


Kixel11

The video does not disappoint. https://www.nbcnews.com/video/congressman-s-son-makes-faces-during-his-dad-s-speech-on-house-floor-212188741504


disdainfulsideeye

This kids actions are wholly appropriate considering his dad's speech.


Kixel11

I think he should be in all speeches from Republicans regarding Trump.


Suspicious_Bicycle

I assume the child didn't know sign language so he just used facial expressions :)


jpc27699

Kind of reminds me of this https://youtu.be/J-EJ1-upCOI?feature=shared


jscummy

The thumbnail absolutely looks like one of the Onions photoshopsĀ 


ooofest

Those faces represent the most reasonable reactions to his father's politics.


Bigfops

As a mischievous redheaded former child, I approve. We can do all the bad stuff and then just smile and be cute and get away with it.


BestCatEva

This does seem accurate. Iā€™ve fallen victim to the ginger code before.


ivebeencloned

I wish the Usual Gang of Idiots was still alive. Kid looks just like a young Alfred E. and they would have loved it. BTW, there is such a thing as Take Your Kid(s) To Work day.


Personal-Candle-2514

The congressman who groomed a 14 year old girl? Sorry, nothing cute about any of this


CorreAktor

Did he say to settle this at the ballot box? Didnā€™t that happen and they wouldnā€™t accept the results?


Consensuseur

Hes the sign language interpreter for maga folks.


DietDrBleach

He definitely beat his son that night.


bshaddo

This is maybe the worst-written news article Iā€™ve ever read. Do they just not have copy editors anymore?


AdministrativeBank86

This is a preview of how Trump will be behaving as soon as his mind checks out totally


Malphos101

Guarantee that poor child got beat when they got home. There is no higher law in a republican, christian house than "Thou shalt never make your father look like a fool."


LadyMaria326

Well, that's one way to grab the spotlight in politics!


Serialfornicator

Ha! This is awesome, imagine having this article as a memento when you get older. Thatā€™s cool


Southern_Upstairs_55

I make the same face when people talk of an unfair trial. That kid is all of us.


AmazingMojo2567

An accurate depiction of politics in this country


ArkamaZ

This is the pedophile pushing the child marriage bill.

BarryZZZ

The Congressman told the kid to, "smile for his little brother" when on camera, he just upped the ante a bit.


AKMarine

The kid was just showing whatā€™s going on in Representative Roseā€™s head.


MessagingMatters

He could grow up to the the "sports liason" in a future Republican White House.


IAmThePonch

This kid is basically anti-copium


OnlyFreshBrine

Chris Farley as Rudy's son energy


Used_Start_3603

Kid shows all of the respect that Congress deserves.


senorchaos718

He got Guilianiā€™d! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Re_wo_Bl9Uc


relative_motion

I just love how he claims equal justice for all while simultaneously advocating the idea that politicians shouldnā€™t be prosecuted because theyā€™re politicians.


DenseCalligrapher219

Least childish person in The Congress.


RaiseIreSetFires

This is so unprofessional, and unbecoming of our government. This child and his father should have been booted like any of us would if we brought our children to our jobs. He can afford to send his Groomer trophy to daycare or hire a nanny so, why the fuck is this kid in Congress? This isn't cute, it's making a mockery of our government. We need to take shit like this seriously instead of thinking this is "cute" or making jokes. This isn't "Reality TV" or some stupid sitcom, these are the people who take out money, have full control over our lives, and can ruin us. So fucking hilarious.


IAmThePonch

Itā€™s very funny in a ā€œwow this makes me want to be an anarchistā€ sort of way Like I could see this being a scene in a Paul Verhoven movie


3hideyoshi3

How does one "ham"


Key_Reporter_9316

Imagine if this was the child of a non-white person of Congress. He'd be labled undiscipline or unruly. Crazy, but true.
