Califan007 The Constipated

Can you show me where anyone said they love having sex with farm animals and want to be celbrated because of it?...I'll wait. And, no, having a drag queen story time is not the same as "I have sex with farm animals, celebrate me!" However: GOP lawmaker Mike Hill slammed for joking about killing gays Republican state Rep. Mike Hill of Pensacola joked and laughed about a constituent’s comment that gay people should be put to death, according to the Pensacola News Journal, drawing harsh backlash against Hill from across the state on Friday. According to a News Journal transcript of the audio recording, which the paper said was released by Women for Responsible Legislation, someone at the May 23 meeting at Pensacola City Hall said to Hill, “In 1 Corinthians, it says that a man who has an affair with another man will be put to death.” Hill replied, “It says that in the Old Testament, too.” Another attendee then asked, “Can you introduce legislation?” There is some laughter, and Hill finally replied, “I wonder how that would go over?” *************** Candidates won't call out host citing death for gays Three Republican presidential candidates spoke at a forum in Des Moines this month hosted by a pastor who raved approvingly that the Bible justifies killing gay people — “and I am not ashamed of the gospel of Jesus Christ.” But neither Texas Sen. Ted Cruz (since endorsed by Iowa’s Congressman Steve King) nor Louisiana Gov. Bobby Jindal nor former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee rebutted Kevin Swanson incendiary statements. On a video of the event aired on The Rachel Maddow Show, you can hear applause and whistles from the audience. Swanson goes on to say he doesn’t “advocate for our civil leaders to do this (impose the death penalty on gays) today” because dying itself isn't a big deal, though burning in hell, where gay people are bound, is. He says he would give them time to repent. Calls and emails seeking a reaction to Swanson's remarks by spokespeople for Cruz and Jindal (who suspended his campaign Tuesday) went unanswered. Huckabee’s spokeswoman Alice Stewart asked for documentation and was sent a video link. She responded the next day saying, "Gov. Huckabee appreciated the opportunity to speak with an audience in Iowa about the importance of standing up for our religious liberties." *************** Tea Party Candidate Says It's OK To Stone Gays To Death Scott Esk, a Republican Tea Party candidate in Oklahoma, got into a debate on Facebook last summer in which he advocated killing homosexuals. “I think we would be totally in the right to do it,” Esk wrote in comments uncovered by Oklahoma journalist Rob Morris. “That goes against some parts of libertarianism, I realize, and I’m largely libertarian, but ignoring as a nation things that are worthy of death is very remiss.” When pressed, Esk added: "I never said I would author legislation to put homosexuals to death, but I didn’t have a problem with it." *************** Gubernatorial candidate calls for ‘firing squad’ for Trans rights supporters Former Mississippi State Representative Robert Foster, a Republican who had served from January 5, 2016 until January 7, 2020 representing House District 28 in Northwestern Mississippi approximately 23 miles south of Memphis, Tennessee, tweeted out last week that it was his conviction that transgender people and their allies need to be shot dead by firing squad. Foster, who campaigned for the governor’s chair in 2019 lists himself on his Twitter bio as a “Man of Faith, and Constitutional Conservative.”

The difference is the religious “kill all gays and jail all parents of trans kids, let me control who you have sex with” zealots are actually running for office (and have allies already in place).

My takeaway from that video was how they were treating it lol...basically having a Triumph The Insult Comic Dog puppet in the Capitol after hours as the equivalent to the Jan 6 riots.

Get a load of this lol....😂

Well of course he does lol...

Is he talking about those who are already in jail and those awaiting trial?...Because if so, how does this differ from the first time he supposedly promised pardons to those who took part in the "protests"? Cuz a lot of them were furious that Trump seemed to abandon them when all was said and done, and left them on their own. "But this time it's gonna be different...just get me back in office and you'll see!"

Say again? lol...I had to re-read those negatives several times...I think I get what you're saying? Are you saying The SS wanted Pence to get in the car but not to go anywhere, and Pece said to the guy who asked him to get in the car that if he were driving the car he'd get in--because he trusts the guy to not drive Pence away any way--but since he's not driving the car he thinks whoever IS driving the car will NOT stay there and will oh hell I give up lol...

The last hearing had a witness also say that, when someone said to Pence that he would be safe if he got in the car, responded with something like “No offense, but you’re not the one driving the car.” It came across as if he didn’t know who to trust.

Considering the realities of what was happening that day and that Pence's assassination was indeed planned to occur--and the realities of what would have happened if he went along with what Trump wanted--painting Pence in anything other than a positive light would have diluted the seriousness of the events of January 6th. You can't both say the ramifications of Pence following Trump's orders would have been catastrophic while also saying Pence not following Trump's orders is no big deal, he was just doing his job. I get why they were emphasizing that Pence put "the Constitution above party" in that moment...or more specifically, put the Constitution above Donald Trump. Because portraying Pence as some sort of last line of defense isn't to prop up Pence as a hero, but to really underscore and illustrate how close the events of Jan 6th came to undoing our democracy...because the GOP machine has spent a year and a half downplaying those events as "legitimate political discourse" and a "Tourist visit", and are still doing so now.

Ah, ok...agree with you there.

Yeah, I figured it out, but couldn't pass up the joke lol... To your point, it would be phenomenal if Pence testified and was honest while doing so...then again, it was admitted by Proud Boy or an Oath Keeper that they were indeed going to kill Pence if they got to him, so... The GOP needs their version of a Martin Luther King of sorts, someone to start a movement aimed at righting a wrong and being dedicated to it no matter what, and who can convince millions of conservatives to join the cauahahaHAHAHAHAHAHAAA 🤣...yeah, like that would ever happen lol.

He doesn't have to be in front of Congress to proclaim himself a hero. He already publicly stated Trump was dead wrong in saying he could have legally derailed the certification, and didn't need to be in a hearing to do so. And you seem so hellbent on making sure Pence gets absolutely no credit for anything that you didn't even really understand the point of my post...which was to say that the Chris Rock clip actually doesn't apply to Pence, just the opposite in fact.

Here's the thing about Pence and this Chris Rock clip: Pence is not out there calling himself a hero or anything. Other people might be, but he himself isn't on TV every other week extolling his actions as praiseworthy. In Rock's bit, Pence would be the man who stays out of jail and takes care of his kids without bragging about it. My view on it all is kind of like the religious saying "Hate the sin, but love the sinner" except in reverse lol..."Hate the man, but loved his actions." Those actions deserve praise in my eyes. The man/politician himself...not so much.

Loudermilk every time new **** comes out about his non-tour tour...

Whether we believe it or not, Jan 6th changed some Republican leaders' minds. Wouldn't surprise me if Pence was one of them.

And he talked to Dan Quayle for advice in the moment...Dan stinkin' Quayle lol...

This guy talking now...yeesh lol. He's like Flash from Zootopia...

Ann Coulter just going off on Trump and the "2000 Mules" movie lol...she's still a gigantic douche, make no mistake. But I do enjoy it when someone other than liberals say this ****. https://anncoulter.substack.com/p/dineshs-stupid-movie?s=r Dinesh's Stupid Movie Every time you think you have your arms fully around Trump's con, you realize it's unfathomably more cynical and far-reaching than you could have imagined. Is there anyone in Trump World who isn't trying fleece to the Deplorables? Haven't they suffered enough? Which brings me to Dinesh D'Souza's movie "2,000 Mules." The movie tells Trump diehards (a dwindling crowd) that their man probably DID win the 2020 election! Using cellphone tracking data obtained by "True the Vote" (which sounds like a group named by Melania Trump -- "BE BEST!") D'Souza claims to have proof that 2,000 people delivered multiple ballots to election drop boxes in the five crucial battleground states that Trump lost. There are two problems with this. First, the movie doesn't show what it says it shows. -- Cellphone tracking isn't precise enough to distinguish between liberal activists stuffing drop boxes, and store owners, police officers, delivery men and others who have perfectly legitimate reasons to be within a few yards of the same drop box every day. -- In all five battleground states D'Souza considers, it is perfectly legal for third parties to drop off ballots for others, with varying degrees of lenience. Pennsylvania, for example, allows a grandparent, grandchild, uncle, aunt, niece, nephew, in-law, household member, caregiver or jailer to drop off someone else's ballot. -- Even if every cellphone dot represented a left-wing organizer illegally dropping off another person's ballot, that still wouldn't make the ballot invalid. A legal ballot can be illegally delivered, although the guy who delivered it might be in trouble. These flaws have already been well aired elsewhere. The second problem -- my problem with the movie -- is the idea that Trump's 2020 loss cries out for an explanation. We know for a fact that Trump was wildly popular, sailing to a landslide election on the love of a grateful nation. Only something nefarious could explain his defeat! Hello? Trump lost only one demographic in 2020 compared to 2016. What was that demographic? ... Answer: WHITE MEN! How did liberal activists pull off that? In the five states where D'Souza deploys his hocus-pocus cellphone data -- Arizona, Georgia, Michigan, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin -- Trump lost 8% of white voters compared to 2016. He lost 12% of white men.

This works, too lol...
