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

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

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.

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

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

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

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.

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

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

The questions - what is a man? what is a women? Is it the way they look the way they act or is it what they believe and want.

To live their lives and dreams, to find someone to love and spend their life with, to have children or not and provide a them a stable home and a good education. Is it that watching football, baseball or a cooking show makes them different. I know men and women that like to watch all of the aforementioned. To me it makes them all human beings with hopes and dreams and should not be put into categories and be restricted from achieving them.

Politicians who try to play word games need to be open and stop the BS they spout

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.

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.
