My suspicion is that she is quietly laughing all the way to the bank. By some estimates, she's worth $30 million. Sarah Palin, a recent loser, is worth 8M.

Money doesn't make her less creepy.

Remember when politicians took pictures of themselves while reading books to kids?
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"

Ted Cruz goes on bizarre rant about college degrees in “queer pet literature”
LGBTQ Nation
Quote:In a rant against President Biden’s student-debt relief plan, Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) said working people are being “screwed by the Democrats” by being forced to pay for the educations of people who studied “queer pet literature.”

Mississippi Gov. Tate Reeves was too busy attacking LGBTQ people to fix Jackson’s water problem
LGBTQ Nation
Quote:Republicans have all but given up on the job of governing. If governors spent as much time ensuring their states’ infrastructures were in good shape as they do demonizing LGBTQ people, the South would be the envy of the nation. Instead, we get disasters, like the one unfolding in Mississippi.
There, the state’s capital is without water for the foreseeable future because of decades of failure to address the crumbling water system. Heavy rains flooded the city’s sewage treatment plant, overwhelming it. As a result, the city’s 150,000 residents don’t have water to drink, bathe or flush their toilets.

House GOP member criticizes FX series ‘Little Demon’ for showing ‘satanic imagery’
The Hill
Quote:Johnson said he was watching a college football game between Louisiana State University and Florida State University on Sunday with his 11-year-old child when a trailer for the show came on during the second quarter. He said he quickly grabbed the remote control to “shield” the child from the “dark” images of hell and demons and an explanation that the main character of the show is the Antichrist.
FX’s description of the show states, “13 years after being impregnated by Satan, a reluctant mother, Laura, and her Antichrist daughter, Chrissy, attempt to live an ordinary life in Delaware, but are constantly thwarted by monstrous forces, including Satan, who yearns for custody of his daughter’s soul.”
Johnson said the culture has become “alarmingly dark and desensitized, and this is not a game.” He said Disney and FX, which is owned by the former, have chosen to embrace and sell what is “clearly evil.”
