GOP Congressman Deletes Post Celebrating ’18 Million Kids’ Losing School Meals: ‘Was an Error’
cross-posted from: https://lemmy.world/post/32469567
After the Trump-backed “Big Beautiful Bill” passed both the House and Senate, one social media user protested, “17 million people just lost health care. 18 million kids just lost school meals. 3 million Americans just lost food assistance.”
Van Orden responded to the post, “YES!”
After he received backlash, the post was quickly deleted, with the congressman claiming he had meant to reply to a different post.

This was no mistake. DVO is a drunk piece of shit.
What ever happened to just "saying the quiet part out loud"? Now they literally scream it.
Ah, yes, that is the same individual who was screaming at the young pages to, "Get the f*** out," right.

May this person get what he deserves.
A drunk aggressively screaming at kids for laying down and taking pictures on their off time. What an absolute disgrace. the fact that he didn't step down or get impeached is an embarrassment to every member of Congress
He meant it, he just didn't want the evidence of him being an absolute piece of shit in writing. Too bad he doesn't understand how the internet works
Id like to thank OP for including the screenshot in the actual post body to be saved by anyone in the fediverse at any time and reposted to remind his constituents of this "mistake"
And here we are just politely disagreeing while these living shitstains destroy our lifestyles...
What we NEED is fire and shouting, not memes and sarcasm
No shouting, just fire.
