This is a grand video. Wow, she tells it like it is, pulling no punches. She talks about how Boebert went to NY where she was not invited to give support for a convicted criminal, yet wont even help her son. Yes the boy that impregnated a teenage girl while he was almost an adult. She and her husband are worth millions yet the boy stands there in court alone telling the judge he can not pay for an attorney. So she rushes to provide cover and support to tRump who ignored her and did not invite her yet also ignores her own son. This is the family values of the trump cult party that use to be the republican party. A great video to watch. Saddest hugs. Scottie

Jon Stewart Puts Media on Trial & Ronny Chieng Tackles Biden’s Border Plan | The Daily Show
Some people desperately trying to save the rest of us from our own destruction.
I debated ways to share this video. It is grand, great, and the people are heroes for doing what they are in those conditions. Look Ron and I left New England because my bones hurt so bad every winter. We did not know then that my bones were dying. Back to the video, I want to give Ten Bears credit as it was him who found and posted it. But really I know we are all busy, I am scrambling right now to get to as much as possible before the notifications reset and I lose all these wonderful posts. Again it is a wonderfully informative short video, I would recommend if like me you don’t want to see the sea levels rise so your home is in water, watch the people trying to help stop it. Hugs, and thanks to Ten Bears. Scottie
CO Republicans And GOP House Candidates Call For Chair To Resign Over “Burn All Pride Flags” Message
This is what drives the increased hate and attacks on the LGBTQ+. This is what republicans consider to be high quality discourse and thought. Attack anyone different and hurt them hard, wipe them out. It is gang thug rule and it is the cults they are in. Either the tRump cult or the Fundamentalist cult. Hugs. Scottie
Denver’s ABC affiliate reports:
The fallout from the Colorado GOP’s anti-LGBTQ+ rhetoric earlier this week continued Friday with state Republican leaders calling for party chairman Dave Williams to resign.
The latest denouncement came from the Jefferson County Republicans, who on behalf of “numerous Colorado Republican County Chairs, other county party officers, members of the Colorado State Central Committee in all 64 Counties, and many Republican candidates” called on Colorado GOP chairman Dave Williams to “immediately resign.”
The mounting backlash against Williams follows a blast email from the Colorado GOP that was signed by the chairman, in which the party accused the LGBTQ+ community of being “godless groomers” who want to harm children. On its official profile on X, the Colorado GOP also called for the burning of Pride flags.
The Advocate reports:
Williams sent an email to GOP voters earlier this week that referred to queer people as “barbaric,” “creeps,” “degenerates,” “godless,” “groomers,” “predators,” “radicals,” and “reprobates.”
Valdamar Archuleta, the head of Colorado’s Log Cabin Republicans, has been one of the few GOP members to defend Williams. He said Wednesday that “I do not think Dave hates me because I’m gay. I don’t think that Dave is a homophobic person. He’s trying to get a reaction.”
The Colorado News-Press reports:
Five of the six Republican candidates running for Congress in Colorado’s 4th District are disavowing their state party’s leadership, citing its recent anti-LGBTQ messaging and concerns over campaign impropriety.
The conservatives, who are on the primary ballot this month, have called into question Colorado GOP Chair Dave Williams and are advocating for new leadership. Only U.S. Rep. Lauren Boebert, who received the endorsement of the party, declined to comment on Williams’ messaging.
Williams has sparked criticism inside and outside of the Colorado Republican Party for an email sent from the state party that claimed people in the LGBTQ community are “evil” and “godless groomers.”
As I reported earlier today, Colorado has seen a spree of stolen Pride flags since the state GOP issued its “burn all Pride flags” message. Williams has called reports of the thefts a hoax.
Last month the Colorado GOP called on Christians to remove their children from public schools because Democrats are using schools to “turn more kids trans.”
Williams is running to replace retiring GOP Rep. Doug Lamborn. Williams, you may recall, lost a lawsuit seeking to have “Let’s Go Brandon” by his name on the ballot during his failed 2022 House bid.
During a December 2023 appearance on extremist Laura Loomer’s podcast, Williams told the Colorado Supreme Court to “go fuck themselves” after they removed Trump from the ballot. It’s what Jesus would want.
My 90 year old Colorado Father in law has always been a republican. He loves his Gay son and his gay sons husband (me), He told us last night, “I’m done with the republican party” after he received this email.
“Only U.S. Rep. Lauren Boebert, who received the endorsement of the party, declined to comment on Williams’ messaging.”
Oklahoma Gov Signs Bill Allowing Students To Leave School Three Periods Per Week For Religious Lessons
These same republicans constantly complain and bitch about public schools teaching things other than standard education. They complain about woke subjects and learning true history for example. Back to the basics is their goal they claim. But letting kids miss classes for religious church lessons is great they claim. Kids don’t need schooling they need bible and more bible. Who needs reading especial about people who are different from the majority when they can learn bible by sitting in church having someone tell them what they think god said or meant. And it must be their god not one of those false ones that the bad people worship. Public school is for the multiple of people who believe different things, in different gods or no god. They have churches for that. Keep god in your church and out of public schools. Hugs. Scottie
Oklahoma City’s NBC affiliate reports:
Governor Stitt signed legislation Wednesday on a framework for public school students to get credits by attending religious instruction during school hours. “What HB 1425 does is that it gives the schools a framework,” said Representative Clay Staires (R-Skiatook), who authored the bill.
Starting in November of this year students from all grade levels would understand their opportunity when leaving their classroom during school and heading to a religious instructional class that has to be off-site. Another rule is that it cannot be led by the school or anyone employed with the school.
Students would be allowed to leave for three class periods a week and 125 class periods a year to attend it. The Satanic Temple announced that if Governor Stitt signed HB 1425 they would offer up their instructional programs.

Below, Christian nationalist state education Superintendent Ryan Walters says satanism is not a religion and therefore leaving school to attend classes offered by atheist trolling outfit the Satanic Temple will not be permitted.
As for Gov. Kevin Stitt, he last appeared here in March 2024 when he declared that God personally had him elected to stop abortion in Oklahoma.
Stitt, who appeared here in November 2023 when he publicly praised illegal cockfighting, is a self-avowed Christian nationalist.
Last year he declared November to be “family month as ordained by God.” In June 2023, he authorized the nation’s first state-funded religious charter school.
In 2022, he claimed “every square inch of Oklahoma in the name of Jesus.” Upon his inauguration, Stitt’s wife declared that his administration’s main priority would be “bringing people to Jesus.”
Superintendent Ryan Walters says satanism is not a religion and therefore leaving school to attend classes offered by atheist trolling outfit the Satanic Temple will not be permitted.
Fingers crossed for the lawsuit this will bring.
Supreme Court rulings have been clear that you don’t have to prove that your religion is “true” – since that’s impossible, of course.
But we’ve seen how much regard the current corrupt SQOTUS has for precedent or “settled law”.

Teen Charged With Shattering Library’s Pride Display
Kids are not born haters, they are taught to hate by adults and older kids around them. Every maga republican and fundamentalist religious leader is spreading this hate like an infectious disease. Hugs. Scottie
Portland, Oregon’s CBS affiliate reports:
A juvenile suspect has been arrested in connection to an incident at the Newberg Public Library in which a window that displayed an LGBTQIA+ Pride flag was shattered by a BB gun.
According to the Newberg-Dundee Police Department in a post on Facebook, police were originally dispatched to investigate the incident on Wednesday at 7:15 p.m. No one was injured and it was initially investigated as a vandalism complaint.
It’s unclear what charges may brought to the juvenile, including whether or not they may include bias crime charges. However, police said the case is being “referred to the Yamhill County Juvenile Department for prosecution.

Country Of Georgia Moves To Criminalize All LGBTQ Events, Ban All LGBTQ Rights, Erase LGBTQs In Media
Welcome to Russia under Putin, Hungary under Victor Orban, North Korea under Kim Jong Un, or China under Xi Jinping. Now the nation of Georgia. What do these countries have in common? They are dictatorships with the people have no rights or limited rights. They have to live as the state demands, live as the govern tell them they must, like it or not.
Do we really want that here? But that is what the minority of Fundamentalist Christians and right wing maga republicans want. Complete control over the lives of the people. The want a white controlled cis straight society who are forced to live by their version of Christianity. They want to do this to the US also. Plus notice the hater bigots leaders in the US had been over there stirring up anti-LGTQ+ hate and vilification. Hugs. Scottie
Deutsche Welle reports:
The latest effort to restrict the rights of LGBTQ+ people in Georgia comes shortly after a “foreign agent” law was adopted in May despite weeks of unrest and pro-EU rallies. The Georgian parliament, where the ruling Georgian Dream party has a decisive majority, will start discussing the planned LGBTQ+ bill in the coming weeks. The final reading is expected to be held in the fall.
If adopted, the bill, as well as amendments to 18 existing laws, would make any kind of LGBTQ+-related gatherings illegal. The proposal would also outlaw same-sex marriages, gender transition and the adoption of children by same-sex couples; it would also ban LGBTQ+ “propaganda” in schools and prohibit the broadcast of intimate scenes involving same-sex relationships.
Politico Europe reports:
Same-sex couples would be stripped of their rights under terms of a new draft law put forward by Georgia’s ruling party. The move marks yet another major break between the European Union and the candidate country in the South Caucasus.
On Tuesday, Shalva Papuashvili [screenshot] — the speaker of Georgia’s parliament and one of the leaders of the governing Georgian Dream faction — brought forward a package of legislation targeting so-called “LGBT propaganda.”
Broadcasters, advertisers and movie theaters will also be ordered to redact any content that features same-sex relationships, regardless of the intended age of the audience, before broadcast.
So much for their EU candidacy.
I first reported the then-proposed bill in March 2024, at which time its backers acknowledged that it could even criminalize the possession of rainbow flags.
As I reported at the time, last year Tbilisi Pride was shut down after police failed to stop hundreds of violent extremists from storming the event.
A similar incident in 2021 resulted in a fatality and a formal call for prosecutions from the US State Department.
That same week in 2021, it was revealed that US hate group leader Brian Brown had endorsed an extremist affiliated with that year’s anti-LGBTQ mob.
As noted by Right Wing Watch at the time, Brown also accompanied said extremist when he organized “illegal gangs” to protest Tbilisi Pride in 2019. Video of Brown at that protest is still on Facebook.
Georgia, population 4 million, is around 90% Christian with most belonging to the Georgian Orthodox Church. Georgia declared independence from the Soviet Union in 1991.
The Georgian Dream Party holds half of the seats in parliament, with the rest scattered among 14 other parties.
Of note, in 2022 I reported that Georgian President Salome Zourabichvili met with US leaders in Washington DC to plea for support should Russia’s attack on Ukraine expand into Georgia.
Zourabichvili leaves office later this year, after which future Georgian presidents will be “selected indirectly” by parliamentary electors.
