I was out running errands and heard about how Talarico wants to make it easier for children to have gender reassignment surgeries and he wants to make abortions for trans people legal. He also supposedly wants to make it a crime for parents to accept a trans child...ad ends with "He's for They/them, not for you.
The buzzword for the GOP seems to be trans-anything.
We're getting similar in SC about Annie Andrews. Apparently she wants gender reassignment surgery for children paid for with your tax dollars and for biological men to be in women's lockerrooms! In a state that's already made it impossible for trans-men to participate in women's sports.
I'm not anti-Christian. I'm anti-stupid.

Katie Zacharia has been fired from her position as White House Press Secretary after four days, breaking the record previously held by Anthony Scaramucci (11 days).

But how is this possible considering that she is an Aryan blonde and those people have in their genes to do everything perfectly?
teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"

He should just take a shit on the podium, direct all questions there, and be done with it.

I tried to listen to her first press conference and couldn't even last the whole 14 minutes. She was the best at being really bad.

Gina Hinojosa ads put out by Abbott claim that she wants our tax dollars to pay for gender reassignment surgery for children. And allow men in girls' bathrooms and boys to play girls' sports. The GOP here in TX is really riding the trans thing. It's pretty pitiful that's the 'dirt' they can dig up on the Democratic candidates running.

Technically Scaramucci was Communication Director, not Press Secretary. So he probably still holds that record.
Once upon a time I could watch The Daily show or John Oliver and laugh at this absurdity, but it's so bad that I can't. I refused to even watch the videos of her attempts at a press conference. I was worried I'd punch my screen.
I accept the correction.
