Trump Aide Promises Ban on Pornography in 2nd Trump Term

https://www.meidastouch.com/news/trump-aide-promises-ban-on-pornography-in-2nd-trump-term

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.

New Trump Ad Praises Campus Counterprotesters

Seriously people are proud of acting this way?  Really?  If a child acted like this the parents would discipline or correct them, yet adults think college kids and tRump supporters think the thuggish racist behavior is great.   tRump loves it.  It is his style.  Berate, ridicule, insult, demean others is what tRump thinks is intellectual reasoning and discussion.  What has this country devolved into?  I thought we grew out of this childish shit a long time ago.   Hugs.  Scottie

May 4, 2024 Racism, Republicans

 

Here’s a reminder about the scene at Ole Miss:

There were hundreds of counter-protesters, in contrast to the few dozen pro-Palestine protesters. The scene evoked memories of the resistance to the civil rights struggle in the US south six decades earlier.

The counter-protesters included individuals waving American flags and Trump flags. At one point, they sang the American national anthem, drowning out the pro-Palestine group’s chants.

There were no arrests, but the actions of the counter-protesters – who shouted “Fuck Joe Biden”, “Who’s your daddy?”, “USA”, “Hit the showers”, “Your nose is huge”, and included a white man making monkey noises at a Black woman – have been widely condemned on social media.

UCLA’s Finest Faces Down The Pig Army

You want to know the truth of the media bias and what is the true violence at these don’t do a genocide protests.  Watch the entirety of this video.  It is delivered in a nonsense style and the only loud parts are the violent police shooting round after round of tear gas, flash bangs, and rubber bullets which can be lethal at the students.  The videos shown show how violent and gleeful the police thugs were to use their weapons of force.  This was one of the best breakdowns of the campus police raids I have seen.  The first 5 minutes might not grab you, but please watch past it.  Get to the meat of the video.   It will change your minds on a lot of the media coverage.  Vaush spends a lot of time quietly going over the ridicules things the report has to say like look they have chairs, why would you have metal chairs at a protest if not to harm others … maybe in a day’s long protest people might want to sit down?  The reporter asks about how did the things the protesters have get there because they won’t fit in their pockets?  Really, a large group of people planing a large scale protest wouldn’t know how to arrange to bring in stuff together to make it easier for them?  How corporate media do these reports now have to be these days?   Please watch the video if not in full, if not at least half way to understand the disinformation being spread by the media.   Hugs.  Scottie

Texas Woman In Legal Peril For Out-Of-State Abortion

Texas Woman In Legal Peril For Out-Of-State Abortion

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

May 3, 2024 Politics, Republicans

 

The Washington Post reports:

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.

Read the full article.

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.

I don’t know much, but I know this: Any woman who votes Republican in November for any candidate running for any position is out of her fuckin’ mind.

Randy503  another_steve18 hours ago

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.

Until SCOTUS says that they do.

Niblet58  Houndentenor20 hours ago

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.

ASFT  glimsong20 hours ago edited

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

Uncle Mark’s Stormy Mood  ASFT 20 hours ago

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

Bluestocking  Uncle Mark’s Stormy Mood 19 hours ago

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.

Some important The Majority Report clips

Owen Jones then joins, as he and Emma reflect on the last seven months of constant scenes of devastation and genocide coming out of Gaza, and the mainstream media’s heart-wrenching insistence on downplaying the horror, denying the deaths, and running cover for Israel’s project of ethnic cleansing under the guise of victimhood.
Jones and Emma explore how the severe repression and propaganda from mainstream Western political institutions is seeing an en-masse public awakening to the genocide of Gaza, and the Western elites’ violent commitment to controlling the discourse, with supposed “liberal democracies” from the US to the EU and UK defaming anti-zionist Jews and anti-semites and uplifting actual racists and Jew-haters as legitimate actors.
