Republican Sen. Jim Inhofe, a conservative firebrand known for his strong support of defense spending and his denial that human activity is responsible for the bulk of climate change, has died. He was 89.
Inhofe, a powerful fixture in Oklahoma politics for over six decades, died Tuesday morning after he had a stroke over the July Fourth holiday, his family said in a statement.
Inhofe, who was elected to a fifth Senate term in 2020, stepped down in early 2023.
Hi, I’m “Jealous from Texas”, howryadoin?
That is the problem with the impending disaster. All the people who could do something about it wont be here when it arrives. Its not like they care about their children. I’ve discovered to care about your childrens fate is a rare thing in people 60 and above. Most of them had it too easy. Being born and raised in a golden age.
Fuck this guy. Left the world worst before dying.
A dead republican is very rarely bad news.
Only when someone worse takes their place.
Considering that he stepped down in 2023, they’ve already replaced him.
Oh, then this is good news.
Hope they built him a tomb big enough to take all his bribes with him for fucking up our future
His denial of climate change evidenced by his holding of a snowball on the congressional floor in winter was the moment I realized that memes are now more important than facts.
Time to go throw a snowball on his grave and laugh
I think some Weekend at Bernies style shenanigans are definitely called for
That was him? Rest in piss
Suprisingly he was the only Republican to take long covid seriously. Because he got it.
“It only matters when it affects me” is the republican mantra I guess.
Always has been.
You shouldn’t say anything about the dead unless it’s good. So, he’s dead. Good.
Fuck that asshole.
Good.
I often wonder when a conservative asshole dies after a lifetime of doing conservative asshole things, does anyone really miss them? Like I imagine his family does not care much for him. Nothing will be named after him, I can’t imagine what, being as anti science and education as can be.
He was a terrible person and I’m glad he’s dead…
I wonder if he was able to take it all with him?
let’s hope this is the beginning of a trend. like when all our favorite celebrities started dying. but this time it’s fun.
Bye bitch.
Ah Senator Snowball dies on the hottest July 4th weekend ever. Coincidence?
Hottest so far.
Good riddance
