U.S. House Rep. Gary Palmer, from Alabama's 6th Congressional District, who's probably chomping at the bit for the day Republicans might take back control of Congress so he can try to ban all "abortion" starting at conception.
On this date in both 2020, as well as 2021, “Fanatical Republican Extremist of the Day” first profiled the U.S. House Representative from Alabama’s 6th Congressional District, Gary Palmer, who was first elected to office back in 2014, with a previous career of being the president of the Alabama Policy Institute, a conservative think tank. Palmer’s focus on being a social conservative for a quarter century straight was evident through his first term in office, as he was raging about the Supreme Court’s ruling on same sex marriage, throwing tantrums about transgendered Americans using the bathroom of their sexual orientation and not of their birth, and his sponsorship of a bill to defund Planned Parenthood based on outrage over the fraudulent video sponsored by the Center for Medical Progress. He actually had the nerve to complain that Planned Parenthood frequently donates to Democratic candidates, which surprise, this motherf***er takes money from Koch Industries and Trinity broadcasting network, just to name a few.
What truly shows us that Palmer is a true extremist, was how back in October, he was one of 41 Republicans willing to crash a classified hearing regarding Donald Trump and Ukraine that would lead to Trump’s first impeachment, a meeting that he and his party actively chose not to participate in. Anyone willing to follow Matt Gaetz’s lead is huffing paint, frankly.
As far as how he’s handled himself during the Covid-19 pandemic, Gary Palmer was calling for the economy to be opened as early as April 22nd (i.e. WAY TOO SOON and part of the reason we saw Americans die in the thousands daily) and besides that, Palmer is stupid enough to actually argue against the House voting for rule changes to allow for proxy voting and remote work to preserve his life, and that of any other members of Congress in the “at risk” group.
BUT HE’S PRO-LIFE, Y'ALL! So get out there and start dying for the economy!
Palmer was gifted a fourth term in office, as no one bothered to register to run against him. His recent voting record… well, it’s pretty clear he’s an Alabama Republican:
We will finish our update with two more anecdotes. On January 7th, 2021, without any investigation into it, he declared that he “held the president responsible” for the Capitol Attack carried out by Trump supporters, but specifically said he would not support impeaching Donald Trump over it. Which… is a complete disconnect.
Much like the people of Alabama’s 6th should disconnect themselves from this brainless hypocrite of a representative.
But, while some have their doubts of whether or not if Republicans take back the House after the mid-terms, as to whether or not they would try to pass a federal ban on abortion… we can show the following video of Gary Palmer attempting to violate the rules of the House to show a photo in a hearing of what he claims is “a fetus reaching out to grasp the hand of the doctor” during an in vitro surgical procedure to prove a 21 month old fetus is aware of its surroundings.
WELL, GUESS WHAT, HE’S EITHER DUMB ENOUGH TO FALL FOR A HOAX, OR HE KNOWS IT’S A HOAX AND HE’S TRYING TO SPREAD IT ANYWAY.
The doctor that performed that procedure on fetus with spina bifida has already repeatedly tried to correct the record, but the anti-choice crowd just can’t handle facts to defend their argument… so they go with lies. This chucklef*** has twice sponsored bills to defund Planned Parenthood, so he’s chomping at the bit with Roe v. Wade blown up to start making the Handmaid’s Tale a reality.
He only has a Libertarian challenger, so he’ll definitely be around in 2023. Regrettably.
