I want to thank Ali for the link. Below is what she wrote about the site. For those wondering what the 2S in the LGBTQIA2S is two spirit people, which is how the first people called same sex attracted people which I think is grand. Hugs Scottie
“Pastor Mark Burns is running for Congress in South Carolina’s 3rd Congressional District, and has been with me from the very beginning of our Movement to Make America Great Again. In Congress, Mark will help me Secure the Border, Stop Illegal Immigration, Uphold the Rule of Law, Grow the Economy, and Protect and Defend our always under siege Second Amendment. Pastor Mark Burns is an America First Fighter, and has my Complete and Total Endorsement – He is a Good Man, a Hard Worker, and will not let you down!” – Trump, posting to Truth Social.
Burns, an avowed Christian nationalist who regularly headlines QAnon events, first appeared here in 2016 when he jumped up and literally fled a CNN interview after being confronted for lying about his military service and education.
Burns later claimed that his website had been hacked to make the false claims and that he was being attacked for being a black Trump supporter. Trump first posted an endorsement of Burns last month.
In 2022, Burns laid out his plan for executing LGBTQs for “grooming” during an appearance on the show hosted by Holocaust denier Stew Peters.
Burns is seeking an open House seat currently held by GOP Rep. Jeff Duncan, who is not seeking reelection. In 2022 Burns finished second in the GOP primary in a failed attempt to unseat incumbent GOP Rep. William Timmons. The South Carolina primary is June 11th.
Last time he ran for Congress, MAGA pastor Mark Burns said that "LGBTQ indoctrination" represents "a national security threat" and vowed to re-establish HUAC to ensure that anyone engaged in it would be executed for treason. Well, he's running again and, of course, he's secured… pic.twitter.com/UgWlwJ54eD

Far-right pastor Mark Burns is opening a military academy that will ensure that students "are not exposed to woke teachings or a sexually perverted lifestyle."

he was being attacked for being a black Trump supporter
No, Marky-diddums. You’re not being attacked for being a black Trump supporter. You’re being attacked for being absolutely batshit fucking insane. One of the symptoms is being a black Trump supporter.
Notice that Black Conservatives are bat guano crazy!! As a Black woman, I find them as scary as White Nationalists. I hope South Carolinians reject this joker.
Sorta like gay right-wingers, I think they are extra shitty because they have something to prove. They prove it alright, but not what they think they’re proving.
In Congress, Mark will help me Secure the Border, Stop Illegal Immigration
NBC, May 15th: Mexico is stopping nearly three times as many migrants now, helping keep U.S. border crossings down. Biden administration officials say the increased help from Mexico in slowing migration is proof their relationship with Mexico is more productive than Trump’s approach.
FunFact: Mexico never paid for Trump’s failed wall. PRESIDENT BIDEN got Mexico to spend 1.5 billion on improved border security.
The hypocrisy of all of them is dumbfounding. tRump as the law and order candidate. How can he keep a straight face? And this lying jackass and Robinson give the Black Evangelicals a bad name.
“The laws that are contrary to the word of God, we need to push against it.”
His bible has a lot of words against divorce, yet he’s still a fan of Trump. As the old saying goes, if they didn’t have double standards, they wouldn’t have any standards at all…
Adultery is another thing that the Bible says God objected to — so much so that under Old Testament law (which is the only one which people like Burns seem to care about even though they don’t follow it themselves), the Jewish community executed anyone who was found guilty of committing adultery. Trump has publicly cheated on at least two of his three wives, but Burns evidently has no problem with that (with the result that one is inclined to suspect Burns himself was unfaithful to at least one of his wives — he’s been married twice himself — and especially since there are several other examples of ethical lapses on his part).
It should be of absolutely no surprise to anyone that Burns is one of the “self-anointed/self-appointed” in the sense that he’s never formally studied theology and obviously never made an effort to discuss his beliefs with any other believers in order to check their validity under historic Protestant doctrine. The “churches” of self-anointed/self-appointed hucksters like Burns are nearly always (very conveniently) non-denominational so that the so-called pastor is not accountable to anyone — not even God, since the self-anointed typically recreate God in tbeir own image to suit themselves. No wonder Trump likes Burns. Burns is just like Trump…a charlatan, a control freak, an egomaniac, and a liar.
This is the result of the hate campaign driven by fundamentalist Christian bigots and their thug troops. They are calling these nonlethal rounds but they can seriously injure, cause blindness, or cause lift time serious problems. This is terrorism. They want to force gay people back in the closet, these thugs want the LGBTQ+ out of the public and out of society. They glorify what Putin has done to gay people in Russia. Hugs. Scottie
San Diego Police say Rich’s, The Rail, #1 on Fifth Avenue and PECS in the Hillcrest and North Park neighborhoods were hit by the suspect early Saturday morning.
Read the full article. A doorman at Rich’s says he was hit in the face with a pellet after hearing slurs shouted from the car. According to witnesses, the gun resembled an AK-47. Watch the video reports below.
I’ve been out for a long time and have witnessed quite a lot — going back to 1970s NYC. I think we’re indeed entering new territory here.
Here in the states there’s a major political party that’s given license to the worst bigots, the most violent criminals. Their leader — a monstrous bigot himself — has a chance of getting back into the White House.
This is a great take down of how bad the Cass report is that the anti-trans haters are right now loving to cite. Vaush even includes the fact that Cass herself disavows the report and says puberty blockers should be given out at younger ages than they are. The report is a shitshow. She almost comes out and admits she was paid to find ways to prevent, mock, and give reasons why kids who are claiming not to be the gender they were assigned at birth should be given gender affirming care per the trans best care guidelines, but instead should be sent to delaying / conversion therapy places. It is another open and shut case of the anti-trans right wing activists doing all they can to deny reality and roll back society to the 1950s. They don’t agree or want trans people, so no young person can know their gender. But they agree that every cis child knows their gender … so why not the kids that are different? Because they don’t want that, nor do they want to admit it. Face it, this is no different from the people that said homosexuals were a choice just to rebel against their parents, that same sex marriage was not a real marriage, that every gay or lesbian person just needed sex with the other sex to make them straight. It is just a denial of a reality they don’t like. They don’t want to admit medical science and society has moved past their comfort spot. Oh well, sorry but I don’t have to live my life to make you comfortable or happy. Hugs. Scottie
What these states are fighting for is the right to discriminate and target kids for abuse, which in their minds somehow pushes the fundamentalist Christian superior morals. They really believe that these laws denying kids the right to live as their authentic self without being harassed and targeted makes their god happy. I got news for them, I doubt it makes their god happy but I know it makes them happy. Their god seems to hate those they hate and love the things they like. Weird how that works. These same states removed child labor protections and school food assistance programs. Makes kids more willing to sacrifice school for work if they are hungry and harassed. Hugs. Scottie
Read the full article. The parents were represented by the anti-LGBTQ Beckett Fund For Religious Liberty, which represented Hobby Lobby in its successful bid to deny birth control to employees. As you can see below, supporting the parents is homocon Andy Ngo.
Liberals were left stunned as Muslims & Islamists gathered on Tuesday to protest the Montgomery County (Maryland) School Board over its LGBTQ+ curriculum. The Muslims want to be able to remove their children from the classroom when that material is taught. pic.twitter.com/vgTai9erXQ
This is what happens when you have hate preachers and right wing media constantly pushing a narrative of anti-LGBTQ+ propaganda and claiming that gay and trans people want to make everyone gay and trans. Plus the US needs better mental health treatments and the US really need to screen police officers much better. Hugs. Scottie
Read the full article. Of note, Lupe Fiasco recently called out fellow rappers for their homophobic lyrics. As you’ll see below, Gomez brandishes assault weapons in most of her videos. Her “weak and gay” video has over two million views as of today.
I found a strong gay man for you Ms. Gomez. Seek him out for some strong advice. I dare ya.
Corporal Andrew Charles Wilfhart is the first openly gay US soldier to die in combat since the repeal (DADT) policy in 2011. Wilfhart died in Operation Enduring Freedom. Major Alan Rogers, died in 2008 while serving in Operation Iraqi Freedom as an Army intelligence officer.
These asshole red state republicans refuse to honor Black History Month and Pride Month but they can celebrate traitors who attacked the US government so they could continue to discriminate against, abuse, and keep black humans as slaves. Yet they call themselves Christians. Hugs. Scottie
Some republican red states like Florida have passed laws making Christian Preachers / Priests / Pastors legally able to be school councilors. Yes troubled kids asking for help will have to accept being preached to, told to pray more, and give their body’s to … god. Yet some of these preachers don’t accept medical science, don’t believe gay LGBTQ+ kids have rights or are born the way they are, they will try to guilt trip them into changing into cis straight kids who go to that church. Hugs. Scottie
The fundamentalist got some more control over a woman’s body with the ending of Roe, now they are going for the entire control over the woman’s rights, their bodies, and their sex organs. Hugs. Scottie
This is their way of forcing their god on the public, in a public school, regardless of the parents religion or lack of. But no other religion gets to do this, just the Christians. Hugs. Scottie
And this is why they feel the need to do this. They are losing more than the culture war and control of society. They are losing money and possible influence because less and less people believe in their deity, far more ass are in pews putting moeny in collection plates.
Another pair of republican Christian jerks who try to force their religious doctrine on everyone while running on family values and hating on the LGBTQ+. But they don’t follow the rules they demand you follow. They were having an affair. Hugs. Scottie
And this jerk wants to make wearing a mask to protest illegal … and yet the terrorist right wing gang thugs like Proud Boys, Patriot Front, Oath keepers, and other Nazi racist bigoted groups wear them all the time to prevent being fired from their jobs. I doubt this bill will pass without some kind of exemption for them. Hugs. Scottie
Screw the immuno-compromised, right? And don’t expect this law to be used against the Proud Boys or Patriot Front.
Sen. Buck Newton, not incidentally, first appeared here in 2016 when as state attorney general nominee, he spoke at a hate group rally, declaring, “Go home, tell your friends and family who had to work today what this is all about and how hard we must fight to keep our state straight.”

I wonder if this would be illegal?
And who do you think he works for when / if he holds office. Hint it won’t be for you, the public. Hugs. Scottie
This one is new but it shows how republicans simply lie and misinform now. Reality means nothing to them. They learned from tRump that voters on their side no longer care about the truth, care about what is real. They simply make false claims and double down on it when called out. They don’t even care. They want their cake and eat it also. Hugs. Scottie
Read the full article. In an interview today with a Minnesota station, Trump denied having said he’d never go back. And then he denied that Biden won Minnesota in 2020. Watch the LOL clip.
Yes. He was appropriately roped off by police/crime scene tape.
I posted about this situation the other day. We have an ideology driven supreme court who wants to make rules based on their religious convictions rather than law. They have an extreme religious faith and demand the right to make the rest of the country that way.
An 887-page plan by Project 2025, led by the ultra-conservative Heritage Foundation, says that if elected, Trump should make a concerted effort to execute the remaining 40 prisoners on death row.https://t.co/LPpIVcvWgc
For those that don’t think this is important, I worked with some Catholic doctors that were so religious high rollers that they condemn and refused to treat those they felt broke god’s laws or their church rules. Specifically the LGBTQ+. I have repeated told of an ICU doctor who was assigned a very sick and dying openly gay man in a same sex relationship. This was just before same sex marriage was legal country wide and before it was legal in Florida. The patient’s lover / boyfriend had complete power of attorney over all the patient’s medical, financial, and other life decisions, something all of us gay people in same sex relationships did so our partners could make our hospital decisions when we couldn’t. This doctor refused to listen or include the patient’s gay partner disregarding their relationship. He went so far as to call the patient’s estranged family members to try to get them to overrule the wishes of the partner. The patient’s partner got a lawyer and legal told the doctor he had to include the partner and treat him as the next of kin legally. The doctor walked on the floor, took the chart and signed himself off the case. Then loudly told all of us he was not the doctor of record for the patient and he wouldn’t treat him, so do not call him or his people for any reason for that patient. That left us and the hospital scrambling. The ICU intensives all worked for the same practice started by that doctor, so they had to find some doctor qualified to step in to be the patient’s doctor because the ICU requires a doctor to be qualified on respirators such as a pulmonologist. Yes they can have other doctors treat them in the ICU but in our ICU’s because of the possibility the patients would have to be intubated in case of a code the ICU and all patients had to be managed by the intensivist / pulmonologist. He was always a self righteous prick, he and his top doctors always bragging about their connections to the Catholic hierarchy locally and the time they spent at the Vatican. This holy super Christian was willing to let a man die rather than acknowledge his male partner and same sex relationship. Hugs. Scottie

I normally don’t care about the consensual sex adults have. I don’t care about others kinks or how they get their “freak” on. I think sex is a great thing and very enjoyable. But these assholes were going around telling others they needed to be more moal, that same sex marriage was against gods law, they argued and fought for LGBTQ+ stuff removed from libraries and schools, the claimed teachers who supported gay and trans kids were groomers sexualizing the kids and forcing them gay or trans. The made the LGBTQ+ out to be horrible monsters who were an abomination to god. They made being Christian the only way to live and constantly made news pushing their version of Christianity, pushing their god.
At the same time they were having same sex relations and multiple sex partners! This is what pisses me off about these phonies. Hugs. Scottie
Quotes from the linked article.
Det. Angela Cox said police continued to investigate, though, whether Ziegler had reason to believe she was not competent at that time to offer consent. Communications indicated that the two scheduled a threesome with the Zieglers, but that the woman asked Christian not to show up when she learned Bridget would not be there.
Of note, the Center during the hearing published a report on its media site, the Florida Trident, which included parts of a report by Cox not yet publicly released. That detailed conversations between Bridget and Christian about him hunting for women in local bars to bring home, with one text from Bridget telling her husband, “Don’t come home until your dick is wet.”
“Are there other videos or photographs on your phone that depict other sexual activity with other people other than Mrs. Ziegler?” Bentley asked Christian Ziegler.
“I believe so,” he replied, with Bridget Ziegler in the courtroom yards away.
He also said any people depicted in those videos were “willing participants” both in the sexual acts and with being filmed.
Ousted Republican Party of Florida Chair Christian Ziegler acknowledged in court that he kept numerous videos of sexual partners besides his wife. Sarasota Police have copies of much of that, and some 30,000 videos downloaded from Ziegler’s iPhone last year.
Ziegler testified on the topic in a May 16 hearing in Sarasota as he and wife Bridget, a Sarasota County School Board member, try to stop the further release of embarrassing information. But just fighting the publishing of video has already put Ziegler in the position of discussing the case in open court.
“Are there other videos or photographs on your phone that depict other sexual activity with other people other than Mrs. Ziegler?” Bentley asked Christian Ziegler. “I believe so,” he replied. He also said any people depicted in those videos were “willing participants” both in the sexual acts and with being filmed.
I’m generally totally onboard with people being free to do what they like in terms of intimate relationships, sexual preferences and all that. But I draw the line at hypocrisy, where you spend all your time trying to force other people to live by arbitrary, Puritanical rules from which you exempt your own behavior.

Christian pervs trying to forbid mention of LGBT people existing, think ‘They were consenting adults’ (if not given a mickey) … excuses their massive hypocrisy while demanding Christian Morality be imposed on everyone else’s lives and educations or else.
After Alabama’s recent IVF ban and the ongoing debate over abortion and mifepristone, the conversation has shifted. Conservatives aren’t just going for abortion. They won’t stop until all our rights under the 14th amendment (marriage equality, contraception, and more) are gone, too.
