Mark “Awful” Alford Turns Military Visit into a Taxpayer-Funded Vacation
When a Congressman visits U.S. troops overseas, it should be about respect and responsibility. Instead, Mark “Awful” Alford showed up in shorts—yes, shorts—during an official base visit with our armed forces.
This wasn’t a family trip. It was a taxpayer-funded mission meant to show support for our service members and ensure accountability. Missouri families expect their representative to take the job seriously, not to play tourist on their dime.
Our troops deserve respect. Taxpayers deserve accountability. Shorts at a military base? That’s not respect—it’s a joke.
