Republican: “There Are Upsides To Child Abuse Deaths”
“A Republican state lawmaker in Alaska stunned his colleagues this week by making the case for the potential economic benefits of fatal cases of child abuse. State Rep. David Eastman’s comments went viral after he spoke at a hearing concerning traumatic childhood experiences and how they affect the child over the course of their lives.”*
Right-wingers Hit A NEW LEVEL of Crazy Over Children’s Book About Penguins
“A Florida school district voted this week to ban a book on penguins—yes, penguins—from its libraries, claiming the book’s “sexual innuendo” was inappropriate for elementary students.
In a 3-2 vote on Monday, the Escambia County School Board, near Pensacola, deemed And Tango Makes Three unsuitable for students, overriding the recommendation of a district-mandated review committee made up of administrators, teachers, parents, and community members.
“The fascination is still on that it’s two male penguins raising a chick,” board member David Williams said ahead of the vote. “So, I’ll be voting to remove the book from our libraries.”
Tennessee Nears Criminalizing Public Drag Shows
Public dress codes separated due to gender assigned at birth. Soon don’t you women dare wear pants, men make sure you have your beard and regulation hat when you leave the house. This is the US Taliban. No miniskirts you women, be respectful with skirts at knee length and dresses covering your ankles. Plus as JMG says let’s protect kids by making dress up illegal but allow teenagers to carry guns. The republicans are a minority party that has to gerrymander and suppress the right to vote to insure they stay in power, but they rule like they have a landslide majority. I really think this comes down to a religious motive. Men shall not dress as women, women shall not dress as men or men might start sleeping sexy with men dressed as women. Oh no! Hugs
The Tennessean reports:
Tennessee House Republicans on Thursday moved to prohibit “adult-oriented” entertainment from public property and restrict it to age-restricted venues in legislation filed after a flurry of controversies over drag shows across the state.
The bill classifies “male and female impersonators” as adult cabaret performers and bans “adult-oriented performances that are harmful to minors,” as defined in Tennessee’s obscenity law.
Bill sponsor Rep. Chris Todd, R-Madison County, filed the legislation after he fought a public Pride drag show in Jackson, Tennessee. Todd at the time called the drag show “child abuse,” though he said he wasn’t aware of the actual content the show would contain.
Memphis’s Fox affiliate reports:
House Bill 9 and Senate Bill 3 would ban those performances from public property or in a location where they could be viewed by minors. The bill addresses performances like “topless dancers, go-go dancers, exotic dancers, strippers, male or female impersonators who provide entertainment that appeals to a prurient interest.”
The bill passed as amended with 74 in favor and 19 against. News Channel 11 reached out to the office of Governor Bill Lee regarding the bill. A spokesperson for Lee said he intended to sign it when it came to his desk.
The bill now returns to the state senate for a procedural concurrence vote before heading to the governor’s desk, possibly as soon as tomorrow.
Rep. Chris Todd first appeared on JMG in April 2022 when he authored a successful bill allowing 18 year-olds to carry handguns. Because he so wants to protect young people. Last year he forced a local Pride organization to cancel drag performances in a public park.
The only solution is civil disobedience and acts of malicious compliance. Defy the law, stage your performance and let the cops pull you out in handcuffs. This isn’t 1962, there’s camera everywhere. Let America see.
And maliciously comply. Put together your drag bunch, market it as a drag brunches but have a group of of cis women do the performance in modern drag style costumes and makeup. Confuse the shit out law enforcement when they come to make the arrest.
Also most evangelical christmas and Easter shows feature men in dresses. Report that shit to the cops, organize call trees and place hundreds of calls for each performance.
Also add Jesus, a man clearly in drag, to each drag show…doesn’t have to be reverent, just have Jesus. He could serve wine.
Yes, I have been saying that for a while. Get some straight ally women to dress up in drag-style and host a drag brunch. Confuse and frustrate the police.
Also, the law says “…male or female impersonators who provide entertainment that appeals to a prurient interest”. I can’t think of anything less prurient than someone dressed in a full-length gown reading to kids.
Unfortunately, it’s going to take some arrests and lawsuits to get this shit over with. But we know that drag queens have some of the biggest balls out there to do it.
Or do like in the old days when drag queens would wear a tag reading “I’m a boy” so they couldn’t be accused of being female impersonators.
“The bill classifies “male and female impersonators” as adult cabaret performers adult-oriented performances that are harmful to minors,”
I’d like to see ONE long term, peer-reviewed study that proves this.
How is it “adult-oriented” if it’s just a man in women’s clothes reading an age-appropriate book to children? Where’s the “adult” part?
Please, these bills have nothing to do with “protecting minors.” Just like anti-abortion bills have nothing to do with “protecting the unborn.” These bills are all rooted in the desire to suppress female sexuality.
To the MAGAts, drag queens are a form of “female liberation.” The right to express, the joy of expressing, “female-ness.”
To those same morons, abortion rights threaten the right of men to control female bodies. The right to suppress female bodily autonomy.
These morons can’t define the word “woke.” Bet their “research” is from some OAN crackpot loon.
Interesting that “Mrs. Doubtfire” the musical is coming to TPAC (Tennessee Performing Arts Center) in Nashville this coming season. I hope that the whole season gets pulled.
The coup d’ etat continues unabated. Get ready because if you live in a red state this and so much more is coming to you. Soon the bills to not recognize same sex marriage will start coming out. Pride marches will be banned. Then people will see why cops had no business being in those parades because now those same cops gonna be splitting your skull if you get out of line
Let’s talk about Twain and Charlie and the Chocolate Factory….
Let’s talk about Texas, schools, and mistakes….
Florida County Bans Book On “Indoctrinating Penguins”
Again it is not about sex, pornography, or protecting children from sexualization. It is about denying same sex couples, gay people / kids, or that people can have a gender different for their assigned sex from public and society. It is about erasing an entire group of people from society. One of the ways the LGBTQ+ gained acceptance was people knew others that were LGBTQ+. They were family members, they were school peers, they were their friends / doctors / auto mechanics / and so much more that people realized they were not the monsters the haters claimed. There was no sex in the book about penguins but it gave the impression that same sex couples were OK, it gave kids the idea that same sex couples could be parents, all things that the Christian right maga cannot tolerate. They won’t allow society to progress past the 1950s as they are not comfortable with people living their lives in freedom or happiness because they demand to force people to live as makes the haters / Christian right live their lives. Also the military is not happy with these red state hate rules against the gays and trans people along with abortion bans. It interferes with military readiness as there are many same sex couples, gay people, trans people, trans / gay dependents, and females who want the right to control their own reproductive health. The military is under attack from the right because they give three weeks no questions asked leave for pregnant people needing to leave state for an abortion. I wouldn’t recommend a red state try to interfere with the travel of a military person. The military is going to cut back facilites and tranning in these red states. Hugs
Pensacola’s NBC affiliate reports:
The Escambia County school board voted Monday night to remove three challenged books from school libraries. The removed books below all contain LGBTQ+ characters. “All Boys Aren’t Blue” is a novel about a boy growing up Black and queer in America. It was available in all high schools.
“And Tango Makes Three” is a real story about two male penguins who raised a chick together at the Central Park zoo. “When Aidan Became A Brother” is a children’s picture book about a transgender boy becoming a big brother.
Dozens of people addressed the board Monday night both in support and against keeping these books in schools. “I am currently embarrassed to be an Escambia County student tonight,” one high school student said.

Escambia County borders Alabama and is home to Pensacola and a major military aviation training facility.
ONE OF THE BEST MOVIE INTROS OF ALL TIME – IDIOCRACY
Texas School Official Leaves Gun In Student Bathroom
Everyone said this and worst would happen. But gun ammosexuals are one orientation pushed hard in red state schools. The superintendent said there was never any danger other than a kid finding it and shooting someone, which minimizes kids have access to guns and the death of someone by gun violence. The mistaken idea is teachers or school personnel having guns will make schools safer. Here we clearly see they do not. A third grader is an 8 year old and recently we had a 6 year old threaten to kill people with a gun and shoot his teacher. Really the goal should be to remove guns from schools and keep them out. A good start to that is to reduce them from society. Hugs
Abilene’s NBC affiliate reports:
A 3rd grader in Rising Star found a gun the superintendent left in a school bathroom. Superintendent Robby Stuteville confirms the 3rd grader found the gun back in January and notified a teacher immediately without moving or touching the weapon.
Stuteville walked KTAB and KRBC through the incident, explaining that both he and the school principal open carry on campus. When he was using the restroom, Stuteville says he took the gun off and placed it in a stall, where it was then left unattended for around 15 minutes until it was found by the student.
“There was never a danger other than the obvious,” Stuteville claimed. He then went on to say he was “proud” of the student and commended his behavior after finding the firearm.
