Republican Sen. Jim Inhofe, a conservative firebrand known for his strong support of defense spending and his denial that human activity is responsible for the bulk of climate change, has died. He was 89.
Inhofe, a powerful fixture in Oklahoma politics for over six decades, died Tuesday morning after he had a stroke over the July Fourth holiday, his family said in a statement.
Inhofe, who was elected to a fifth Senate term in 2020, stepped down in early 2023.
He lived a long and happy life selling our country to giant corporations.
Pieces of shit like this make me wish hell was real.
You’re a traitor to country and all of humanity; the world became a slightly better place when you died. I hope your final moments were as agonizing as the policies you supported.
Good riddance.
Fuck this guy. Left the world worst before dying.
Good riddance
His denial of climate change evidenced by his holding of a snowball on the congressional floor in winter was the moment I realized that memes are now more important than facts.
Time to go throw a snowball on his grave and laugh
I think some Weekend at Bernies style shenanigans are definitely called for
That was him? Rest in piss
Suprisingly he was the only Republican to take long covid seriously. Because he got it.
“It only matters when it affects me” is the republican mantra I guess.
Always has been.
I don’t suppose it’s at all likely that y’all might replace him with a Democrat?
He’s a former senator; stepped down in 2023. Has already been replaced by MarkWayne Mullin.
at 88, or how they called in the senate: early retirement
With a name like Markwayne, it’s painfully obvious this person is a Republican
He’s the guy that challenged Union Rep Sean O’Brien to a fistfight during a senate hearing. Doesn’t get much more Markwayne than that.
I was frankly shocked he didn’t have a mullet
His name has a mullet
Marcus in the front, Wayne in the back.
Also pretty sure Mullin is just the verb form of mullet.
”Hey bruh, how’s the radical new hair growin’ in?"
“Aw you know, dude, it’s mullin’.”
I’m pretty sure O’Brian called him “Clownshoes”.
It’s a Boston thing, and Markwayne 100% deserves to be called that.
I’m still sad that Markwayne didn’t get his fascist fucking teeth knocked out on the senate floor
He’s also the guy in the famous photo of a pussy cowering in the capital building on January 6th. Whenever I hear about more of that guy’s fucking mess, I think of that photo and am soothed a bit.
I originally had just “MarkWayne” but edited to add his surname lest he be confused with MarkWayne van der Snoot-Smythe (probably also a republican).
MarkWayne van der Snoot-Smythe
If anyone had a good reason to petition for a name change…
Heh. I needed a funny last name, so I thought “What’s the opposite of ‘MarkWayne’?”
RIP bozo
And by that I mean rest in piss
Strokes are FAKE! I’ve never seen one! He probably died after having a GAY SEX ORGY!
How dare you insult the good name of gay sex orgies by implying that they’d let this asshole participate.
Furry gay sex orgy
Hope they built him a tomb big enough to take all his bribes with him for fucking up our future
I can only hope Death hasn’t left D.C. yet, but is just sharpening his scythe. In particular, there are a couple presidential candidates who are rotting on the vine.
Needs to take out the entire project 2025 team, all servers, anyone ever involved. Tabula rasa.
That’s the most Dark Souls shit
Ah Senator Snowball dies on the hottest July 4th weekend ever. Coincidence?
Hottest so far.
Oklahoma man honored to finally be metabolized into various greenhouse gases
Makes room for a non-Republican
You don’t even have to read the article. It says in the post that he stepped down in 2023.
And Oklahoma will never go for a non-Republican.
I grew up there.
Hi, I’m “Jealous from Texas”, howryadoin?
Good, fuck off
