Why oh why are these people so scared of sex? Did they fail to get any as teenagers? Still failing to get some? Sad. Then somewhere I read it was all about increasing the white baby count while stopping any brown people from coming into the country. See I guess the plan is banning abortion, ban contraception, ban porn to keep males super horny with pent up need … causes early marriage and kids. Doubt it, see Utah. But it gets worse. These guys want to deny women the right to vote and ban divorce making them dependent on men again. Hugs. Scottie
Project 2025 operative John McEntee also supports abolishing the 19th Amendment
Former Trump aide John McEntee promised a ban on pornography was coming in the United States in a recent interview with Daily Wire host Michael Knowles. McEntee had a senior position in the Trump White House and is a key contributor to the infamous Project 2025, a collection of policy proposals
to transition the United States to Christian nationalist authoritarianism in the first 180 days of Trump’s second term.
“You bring up the elephant in the room,” McEntee told Knowles, “which is a stain on not only society but the entire dating culture as well, which is pornography. Whenever America bans that, which will be happening at some point, everyone will be much better off.”
The Project 2025 plan specifically lists a ban on pornography stating, “[Pornography] is as addictive as any illicit drug and as psychologically destructive as any crime. Pornography should be outlawed. The people who produce and distribute it should be imprisoned.”
“The minute that goes away, this country will flourish,” McEntee told Knowles.
McEntee was Donald Trump’s former personal aide but was fired from the White House over a gambling debt issue that prevented him access to a security clearance. Trump hired McEntee back in 2020 and made him director of the White House Personnel Office.
In that role, McEntee was instrumental in drawing up the policy proposal for Trump’s immediate withdrawal of U.S. troops from Afghanistan right after Biden won the 2020 election in order to throw the early days of Biden’s term into chaos. McEntee’s plan was not implemented, and Biden withdrew troops from Afghanistan in August of 2021.
After leaving the White House, McEntee received seed money from billionaire tech investor, and Trump supporter, Peter Thiel to create a dating app for conservatives called “The Right Stuff.” McEntee subsequently gained a large following on social media promoting the dating app with short videos reciting pithy MAGA talking points while out at restaurants.
In the interview with Knowles, McEntee, now the CEO of a dating app, also said he was “rethinking the 19th Amendment,” which gave women the right to vote, after being shown a TikTok video about feminism.
This interview points out some of the flaws in the Cass Report, and how Cass herself was a known anti-trans person who had worked with DeathSantis and his administration. Talk about asking the fox about the hen house security. The people who wanted a badly done report on trans care / trans kids choose a known anti-trans person to do it. Erin Reed is a trans person who is very well versed in trans issues. The video is not long, about 14.19 minutes long but very informative if you know someone who is an anti-trans hater who often says well look at the UK and those places they are stopping care, or someone who likes to refer to the Cass report.

Journalist Erin Reed, author of the Erin In The Morning newsletter on SubStack, discusses the recent gender identity review by the National Health Services (NHS) in the United Kingdom.
Erin Reed and Emma then jump right into the background for the UK’s recent Cass Report on transgender care, stepping back to briefly cover the rise of transphobic activism in the UK at the end of the 2010s, and the major policy impacts it had despite fringe following, including the NHS-sponsored ‘independent’ and ‘unbiased’ review by Hillary Cass. After giving some background on the evidently not-so-unbiased Cass herself, Reed parses through the clear failure of the report itself to live up to these supposed standards, actively excluding both trans voices and experts on trans care from the report, relying on outdated and fraudulent statistics (compiled by notorious homophobes nonetheless), and repeatedly requiring absurdly high standards for trans care – standards not met by the vast majority of both adult and pediatric care – while rarely substantiating any of the claims about the supposed dangers.
A bunch of fundamentalist theocracy states have started having police and even private citizens patrolling to spot pregnant women on roads connected to the border. They take the information of the car or woman, and check when she comes back if she is still visibly pregnant. If not, an investigation can be initiated. Right now this is not getting a lot of publicity and the theocratic states want to keep it that way. Let the public know that these people see the Handmaids Tale as a how to guide book. Hugs. Scottie
As soon as Collin Davis found out his ex-partner was planning to travel to Colorado to have an abortion in late February, the Texas man retained a high-powered antiabortion attorney — who court records show immediately issued a legal threat.
Now, Davis has disclosed his former partner’s abortion to a state district court in Texas, asking for the power to investigate what his lawyer characterizes as potentially illegal activity in a state where almost all abortions are banned.
Davis’s petition was filed under Texas’s Rule 202 by Jonathan Mitchell, a prominent antiabortion attorney known for devising new and aggressive legal strategies to crack down on abortion.
Mitchell appeared here in 2022 for his lawsuit seeking to block insurance coverage for PrEP medications because they “encourage homosexual behavior.”
Also in 2022, Mitchell filed six separate lawsuits seeking to dismantle LGBTQ rights, including the Supreme Court’s Obergefell ruling.
Jonathan Mitchell—one of Trump's top lawyers—is asking Texas to investigate a woman who traveled to Colorado for a legal abortion. Mitchell represents the woman's ex-boyfriend, who's accusing her of breaking the law by traveling out of state to terminate. https://t.co/OIsSiMbJbF
Aborting my baby What lovely way of saying how much she hates me She’s aborting my baby what a lovely way of showing what she’s thinking of me I can see it, your face is scowlin’ I can see it in your eyes, I’m happy you hate it🎶
True. My crazy religious sister is voting R consistently because Jesus and god. She is 100% anti-abortion, and that’s one of the reasons why god chose Trump as president, you see. She is 65 and “pure”, which means she has never stained herself with sexual relations in her entire life, so getting pregnant isn’t going to happen. Pregnancy is only for nice married women, and if you aren’t a nice married woman, you are a damned whore who gets exactly what she deserves. Yes, she is out of her mind, which is exactly why she votes republican.
Not to mention it violates the constitution. Texas cannot criminalize behavior in a state where that behavior is legal. It has no jurisdiction in Colorado.
That is exactly why this investigation is being done. To get this case before the SCROTUS and have them rule TX or any other state banning abortions can prosecute their citizens for getting an abortion legally elsewhere.
Their novel characterization, from what I’ve said in other cases, is that the “crime” occurs in Texas when they procure the plane ticket or bus ticket or make plans, etc.
I don’t believe any texas court has signed on to that shit yet – but that’s their argument AFA
Missouri tried to do something similar, but in a different context: “That fetus is a Missouri citizen and we are protecting the life of that citizen from being taken outside of the state to be killed.” SMDH
If they’re going to claim that a fetus counts as a citizen of Missouri, then they logically need to stop issuing birth certificates and start issuing conception certificates. At least historically — especially since a child was not guaranteed to survive birth — a baby was only considered a citizen once it was born.
Claiming that a fetus somehow counts as a citizen poses an additional legal problem in the sense that it potentially opens the door to a pregnant woman potentially being charged with manslaughter for miscarrying even though her miscarriage wouldn’t necessarily have anything to do.with what she did or failed to do.
Prevailing precedent on the right to interstate travel would, in normal times, make such a notion laughable…but with this SCOTUS, these are not normal times.
If you go to the link, you will see one state representative claimed he started having relations with his wife when they were 16 and they did not need input from anyone else. He then claims that he considers they were married from that point, even though they did not get legally married until they were adults. Which says a lot of about his mind set. Seriously, nothing in the bill prohibits what he and his girlfriend did. They had teenage sex. They did not get married then. The bill says girls can not be forced to get married if they are minors. Period. Because if there were loopholes people who want an as the article says one representative described minor girls as a ripe, fertile age and may have a pregnancy and a baby involved. He sees girls / women as breeding stock. Just something to carry the man’s issue to term. Hugs. Scottie
The New Hampshire House passed a bill Thursday raising the legal age of marriage to 18, sending the legislation to Gov. Chris Sununu’s desk after years of advocacy. Senate Bill 359, which passed 192-174, states that “no person below the age of 18 years shall be capable of contracting a valid marriage, and all marriages contracted by such persons shall be null and void.” Under present law, that age is 16.
Rep. Jess Edwards argued that taking away the possibility of marriage could lead more 16- and 17-year-olds to abortion. “If we continually restrict the freedom of marriage as a legitimate social option, when we do this to people who are a ripe, fertile age and may have a pregnancy and a baby involved, are we not in fact making abortion a much more desirable alternative, when marriage might be the right solution for some freedom-loving couples?” he said.
This is the frickin' mentality that we have to deal with in New Hampshire. Children (girls) should be allowed to get married because they are "ripe and fertile."
Soooo…this creep believes that fertility is the only requirement for marriage. Someone hide that poor, Ohio 10 year-old impregnated rape victim from this deviant codger.
You mean, before the upstart, rebellious American colonies declared independence from the King of England?
Speaking of which… I’m sure all those Reichwingers in the US celebrate July 4th, commemorating our throwing off a real, visible tyrant and dictator. Interesting that they not only accept, but would have us submit to, an invisible dictator! And he’s the One Special Invisible Dictator who may not be questioned!!
Probably wants to do away with no-fault divorce, too.
Teen wives can’t legally hire a divorce attorney. Edwards said he would write an amendment to the bill to allow underage wives to hire divorce attorneys, but he didn’t actually do that.
Don’t know if you saw this earlier, different state, but…
NPR: Pregnant women in Missouri can’t get divorced. Critics say it fuels domestic violence
Destonee requested she be identified by only her first name. She says she still lives with abusive threats from her ex-husband. She couldn’t end her marriage because Missouri law requires women seeking divorce to disclose whether they’re pregnant — and state judges won’t finalize divorces during a pregnancy.
Rep. Jess Edwards voted against any exception for rape or incest, but changed his mind to allow for abortion in the case of non-viable fetuses, because he “doesn’t think the government should play Solomon between a live woman and dead fetus.” < eyeroll >
Fucking old goat actually thinks 16 year old girls are salivating over musty old balls like this dude clearly has. Hopefully by the time these young ladies turns 18, they’ll run far far away from NH.
Ladapo first earned national infamy for a 2020 press conference outside the Supreme Court with insane nutbag Dr. Demon Semen, who says that women get STDs by having sex with demons in their dreams, that drag “opens portals” to demons, and that Biden and Pelosi “downloaded their brains to the internet” and are now “demonic clones.” Lapapo has been accused a falsifying a study on COVID vaccine side effects and of lying about his history of treating patients at UCLA. He last appeared here in January 2024 when he called on the public to refuse all COVID vaccines.
When asked to wear masks to help the country deal with a worldwide pandemic, the maga hate groups claimed they wouldn’t do it because they can’t breathe wearing masks. The went to school board meets and ranted and screamed at the board about it. Yet now those same Proud Boys, Three Percenter’s, Oath Keepers, and the Nazi protesters marching in the streets who call themselves Patriot Front all wear face masks to avoid being identified and lose their jobs. If they think they represent so much of the country as they claim, why not be open about what complete morons and jerks they are. This is another reason DeathSantis and racist governors in some red states are outlawing any Diversity, Inclusion, and Equality programs so white people can be open racist bigots to fellow workers without getting reprimanded or facing consequences for their actions.
