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.
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

Trump To Attend Fundraiser On Day Of Son’s Graduation
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.

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.

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

Study: Trump’s Offer To Big Oil Could Save Them $110B
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

Latest Trump Lie: I Never Said That I’d Never Go Back To Minnesota If I Lost To Biden There, Which I Didn’t
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.

Some more old things I need to clear out.
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
