In case it wasn’t clear what kind of person the new Speaker Mike Johnson is, here is an OpEd he wrote advising that states should β€œdiscriminate” against β€œhomosexual conduct” and suggesting they pass laws around β€œsexual conduct outside marriage.” He is a Christo-Nationalist zealot. Of β€œThe Handmaid’s Tale” variety.

This is for the young progressives out there. When I was a bit younger, I was terribly disappointed with then President Bill Clinton, who signed the hateful DOMA and Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell into law. It seemed he had betrayed all of his values and the LGBTQ community that had helped get him elected. There was a part of me that said I would stand on principle and never vote for him again.

But then I remembered, voting isn’t about loving everything about your candidate. /1

It seems President Zelenskyy requested an opportunity to address a joint session of Congress, but that worm of a man, Kevin McCarthy, refused him. Kevin has always been a spineless coward, and he deserves every bit of misery coming to him as his own party turns on him.

Yesterday was our 15th wedding anniversary. Time flies when you're spending it with the person you love. Happy anniversary, Bradder. ❀️

So that shrieking windbag Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene has admitted she is openly coordinating with Trump to keep an β€œimpeachment inquiry” into Biden open for as β€œlong and excruciatingly painful” as possible. This is the real β€œweaponization” of the government: going after the President with absolutely no evidence, solely for political points.

Looks like Jack Smith obtained Trump’s Twitter data, including β€œsome volume” of his DMs. Elon’s people tried to delay production and wanted to tell Trump about the warrant, but they got smacked down and hit with sanctions. Shows whose side Musk was on, huh?

Now that progressives have won control of the Wisconsin Supreme Court through a statewide election, and have filed suit to put an end to politically gerrymandered districts, guess how the GOP responds?

They threaten to impeach Justice Janet Protasiewicz, using their illegal, gerrymandered supermajority in the legislature to do so.

They will do anything to stay in power.

I am no lawyer, but telling a witness who is supposed to testify before a grand jury in your case tomorrow that he β€œshouldn’t” is obstruction of justice. It's witness tampering. And that’s a crime that can get added to all the others.
