Desi Lydic unpacks the latest Capitol Hill news: Matt Gaetz withdraws as Trump’s pick for Attorney General, and Nancy Mace targets Congresswoman Sarah McBride with an anti-trans bathroom ban. 

What the host did not point out is that Nancy Mace is a total publicity hound.  She seeks the spotlight at all times.  She demands her staff book her on some media at least once a week.  She demands they video her like you see in the clips above so she can post them on X or other social media.  She is like Marge Greene in that being famous and a celebrity is more important to them than governing.  Being an influencer is more important than forming a more perfect union for everyone.   Making a spectacle and being in the center of what everyone is talking about is what gives them the greatest joy.   As you can see once defending trans people’s rights gave her clicks and views so she was all in for it.  Then her cult switched to fear and hate regardless of the real truth and the denial of science in favor of religion.  In a book written over thousands of years, edited and changed countless times, translated from language to language often by people with no idea how to speak the language they are translating, and then selectively edited by political leaders as to what should be in it and what should be removed … that book says god created them male and female.  So that was written by people who did not understand germs or to wash their hands to prevent sickness, who believed different colored sticks would cause different colored livestock, and had no concept of modern science makes a claim that modern humans in 2024 place more authority in than all the education and medical science of all history.   How is that rational?  Yet these people are elected to the highest offices to run a country that once was respected as striving for enlightenment and civil rights for all, is now being drive to regress to a theocracy where our highest information will be limited to what people in the Bronze Age understood.  We have seen this happen in other countries and we were aghast at it.  Look at Afghanistan?  Look at the Arab countries that turned their backs on science and instead used their holy writings as the way things must always be.  That thinking allows no growth and a supreme denial of reality.  Hugs
