Having won the abortion war (although they still want more, like a national ban), the wingers have wasted no time going after their next target: everyone who is LGBTQ and out. They want a Christian version of Saudi Arabia, complete with morality police.

Why does the logo for The New England Council look like it was designed by a middle schooler who, as they were getting ready to turn it in, realized they spelled “Englnd” wrong and just sandwiched in the missing letter?

"Everybody knows about Dylan Mulvaney? Bud Light, right?" Haley asked the audience. "Make no mistake. That is a guy, dressed up like a girl, making fun of women. Women don't act like that. Yet, everybody's wondering why a third of our teenage girls seriously contemplated suicide last year?"

What?? That may be one of the weirdest attacks on a trans person I have ever heard.

“So you’ve heard of these solar panels right? But what if it’s cloudy? Then you don’t have cold food. It’s no wonder suburban teens and moms are committing suicide.”

Wow, that works for anything!

I will admit that I didn't know Ms Mulvaney until the whole Bud Light thing (I'm too old for the TikTok) but she seems like a delightful person.Nikki Haley, OTOH, is ugly through and through.

When you are polling at single digits it's tough to get good writers.

Plus conservatives don't make good writers to begin with. The whole lacking empathy thing is an issue.

My trans niece went through puberty as a male. She’s 5’6 or 7 and maybe weighs 150. Maybe. I doubt a non trans woman swimmer, golfer or basketball player would lose to her. She is still an excellent skateboarder and guitarist.

I started following Dylan on instagram. She’s very cute and makes me smile. I can’t say the same about Haley or her ilk

"the most horrible thing anyone could say." Until tomorrow. There's always a chance to be more horrible tomorrow.
