Senator Joni Ernst became famous in Iowa with her viral video ad talking about how she castrated baby pigs growing up. The mojo from that ad led to her “Making ‘Em Squeal” campaign motto. She even proposed a bill which was signed into law called the SQUEAL Act — a meaningless and petty cut of a tax break for living expenses for Congresspeople which adds nothing to anything. Indeed, that is the legacy of Senator Ernst for Iowa — adding nothing to anything real for Iowa’s citizens.
So now Joni has castrated herself, along with the rest of the herd of lemmings calling themselves Senators of the United States. They are taking the QAnon motto “Where we go one, we go all” to the ultimate lemming ideal — following Mitch McConnell right over a cliff into the abyss.
Like the other hogs at the trough of Trumpian sycophants Republican Senators, Ernst this week was as happy as a pig in shit. On Monday, she added her own hog feed to the rhetorical pile of mumbo-jumbo which can only charitably be called an impeachment trial:
Iowa caucuses are this next Monday evening, and I’m really interested to see how this discussion today informs and influences the Iowa caucus voters, those Democratic caucusgoers. Will they be supporting Vice President Biden at this point?
Joni Ernst
To which Joe Biden replied:
I don’t think much about anything Joni Ernst says.
Joe Biden
Amen, brother. Amen. What Democratic caucus-goers are thinking about is culling the public servant herd of every Republican everywhere they wallow. And you are on that list, right under Donald John Trump — the serial killer of decency you are fluffing for fear he’ll turn on you. At least you’re not alone, at the national level. But in Iowa, you are alone, and your pitiful squealing is being heard loud and clear.
Time to clean out the barn in Iowa and send this pitiful excuse of a public servant back to the hustings where she was farrowed. Her questions during the impeachment hearings reflected her inability to comprehend the magnitude of the historic process in which she is engaged. History will remember all of them as traitors to our republic and enemies of our democracy. And we Iowans will remember one particular traitor this fall.
Jump off that cliff, Joni. Run for it! Feed at that trough and get good and fat. Maybe you’ll bounce when you hit bottom. Electoral slaughter is waiting for you this fall. The only bacon you will bring home will be the satisfaction of seeing you lose this election — because you have not brought back any bacon for the rest of your fellow Iowans.
At least hogs have more sense than lemmings. Sadly, Joni has failed the test of history and proved herself worthy of Joe’s observation — she doesn’t think much about anything. She is as worthless as teats on a boar. Joni, you and your fellow Republican Senators are pigs in a blanket, and lunch is served.
Goodbye, Joni. Don’t let the barn door hit you on your way out — and down.
