Wow! Stunning that the guy who divorced his pregnant wife days before their child was born turned out to be someone who can’t be trusted

Maybe he should worry more about how he acts like a man than how others do

I’m grateful for your service, but protecting my freedom is of relative value when you plan to barter it away

What a fucking jackass . I’ve been posting shit all over his Facebook and democratic sites. True loser . He thinks strong men don’t protect the vulnerable and oppressed . I’d like smack him down . A real weakling

His (lack of) respect for women is akin to Trump’s. Sounds like he’s getting bored with baby mama #2 already.

Disgusting, he should be ashamed

That he’s objectifying and denigrating Rosa DeLauro - a democratic Member of Congress to a republican political operative is particularly offensive. And the ageism is equally repugnant.

Note to Rep Gallegos:

Representative DeLauro was previously the Executive Director of Emily’s List. You’ve got a reckoning coming.

Well, without a great deal of a-- kissing apologies, that's a good reason to primary him,

Gallegos is going borderline MAGA crazy, echoing Hegseth’s toxic masculinity (e.g. firing highly skilled women and people of color as DEI hires and renaming DOD to Department of War). He is going down the same MAGA rabbit hole and needs to be primaried. I cannot believe I once donated to his campaign.

He should be removed from several committees. But especially Veterans Affairs. Women veterans should not have his views representing them.

It’s never about fairness, it’s always about policing gender roles.

Good to make this visible - can’t fight against what you can’t see!

Sounds like another toxic manosphere bro. Regardless of political party, he's not fit to govern if this is what he believes.

Here’s his DC office number:

(202) 224-4521

I called and left a message. Please do the same. Calling out his behavior and his attitude is the first step.

It's a shame that some people feel that they have to tear someone down to elevate themselves. Too many see life from a position of scarcity where someone has to lose for them to win. Stay strong

Guy's definitely a mental lightweight if he thinks this is what inclusivity looks like. Wrong party, Ruben.

He's not wrong about how the democratic party used to be the live and let live party and republicans were and still are the religious freak busybody party.

Erin Reed's avatar

I mean the Democratic Party still is? Dems arent the ones passing book bans, banning drag, etc.

MakeTheWorldSafeForDiversity's avatar

Sure. Ask the latinx, latine persons who got deported how much the democrats care about non whites.

Glau Hansen's avatar

Backlash to queer Latino culture by straight Latino culture aside, ‘abolish ICE’ is associated only with the left wing of the democratic party.

Gallego got corrupted and bought off by crypto. There has to be a connection there to the thinking he is now supporting about gender/identity.

Over what time frame? As recently as the Carter & the Gore's being in politics, it was the Dems which had the majority of Biblethumpers in their party. The key contributions to American politics have antecedents in the 1700's.

Jackson Marrs's avatar

Carter was a real example of a follower of Jesus . Christianity is just a brand sold to people to get rich from creating hysterics . Carter was one of the best presidents we ever had as a human being

MakeTheWorldSafeForDiversity's avatar

Carter was just a CIA Watergate blip in the line of Nixon-Reagan-Bush-Trump created by the assassinations of the 1960s. Carter took advantage of the Church-Pike-Rockefeller investigations into Fed abuse of citizens in response to the assassinations of the 60s, Vietnam War opposition, and Civil Rights agitation to barely defeat unelected Warren Omission member Ford.

Talia Perkins's avatar

None of which changes the fact Carter was an Evangelical and then when most Evangelicals were Dem, and the Gore's especially Tipper were as Social Conservative as any. The move of the faux-Christian social conservatives into near wholly the GOP was under way then, but not complete by any means until Trump!'s 2nd (failed) run.

Gallegos is an untrustworthy political lightweight. Throwing trans people under the bus is a moral failure. Disrespecting Rep DeLauro is despicable.

Sarah F's avatar

Well, he should be easy to primary. He's very quotable as a man who expects men to be "manly" and women to be "hot." What a turd.

It is past time to get rid of the consultants. Who owns him?

Jackson Marrs's avatar

The consultants are backward and biased against glbt 100 percent
