Wonkette Exclusive, Must Cite!!!! Hot off the Facebook page of awesome Texas Rep. Dawnna Dukes, some all-new derpery to come out of the debate on Texas Senate Bill 5, the Mississippi-style abortion restrictions bill that would close almost all abortion clinics in the state. More to the point, it's the bill that has already given us our newest nominees for both the coveted Legislative Shitmuffin of the Year Award, Rep. Jodie "get cleaned out" Laubenberg, and Legislative Badass of the Year Award, Sen. Wendy "I will filibuster this shit so hard" Davis. The brilliance this time comes from state Sen. Bob Deuell (R-So SMRT), whose legislative website says he is "a board-certified family physician." According to the Facebook post by his colleague Rep. Dukes, Sen. Deuell (who is now one of the R's in the Texas Senate trying to interrupt Sen. Davis's filibuster) had this insight during the debate:

Another ah ha moment in the senate during SB5, Sen. Duel [sic] said pregnancy only occurs after "accurate intercourse". But of course, any other is I assume inaccurate. Hmmmm!

Accurate intercourse? Yep, your guess is as good as ours.

While we cannot be certain -- because we happen to have at least two solid brain cells to rub together, which is at least three more brain cells than Sen. Deuell possesses -- we imagine that accurate intercourse must be a kissing cousin of that old standard, legitimate rape, during which magic ladyparts shut that whole thing down. In cases of inaccurate sex, you must wear the sex dunce cap and repeat the course in sex ed summer school with Professor Louie "Check out that hot caribou sex" Gohmert, and boy does that suck.

While this sounds cold stone stupid to the at-least-three-brain-cells-havers among us, it's exactly that kind of talk that could take Duell all the way to the U.S. House, where, if he can download a medical degree from dumbshitobgyns.com, he just might get an engraved invitation to join the GOP Doctors Caucus, where he and his no-idea-how-sex-works ideas will have plenty of company.

Or maybe he could, you know, just accurately intercourse himself.

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez Impassioned About Thing, Oh Sh*t RUN FOR YOUR LIVES!

GOP men -- and the New York Post -- keep making fools of themselves.

News

The GOP-controlled Senate held a sham vote for the Green New Deal Tuesday. It was an entirely political spectacle. Majority Leader Mitch McConnell wanted to publicly divide Democrats and rally the conservative base while depressing the liberal one. McConnell only cares about power and the fossil fuel donors who keep him in it. He's a cynical sack of garbage.

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, who co-sponsored the Green New Deal, actually believes in things. It annoys her when Republicans can only manage weak-ass political stunts in response to climate change, which is both a real and a serious threat. During a House committee hearing prior to the Senate's travesty of a mockery of a sham vote, "Real World" alum and Wisconsin Rep. Sean Duffy basically dismissed environmentalism as an "elitist" pursuit.

DUFFY: If you're a rich liberal from maybe New York or California, [the Green New Deal] sounds great because you can afford to retrofit your home or build a new home that has zero emissions, that's energy efficient.

The current president is a billionaire from New York, but Republicans are still pushing the "limousine liberal" narrative. Yes, only "rich liberals" from the land of Jews and queers care about climate change. Meanwhile, rich conservatives go sport hunting and send rhinos back to God postage due.

NRA Opposing 'Violence Against Women Act,' Because Stalkers Need Guns, Too

No, really.

Guns

It's getting more and more difficult these days, what with the never-ending stream of mass murders, to adamantly oppose common sense gun control laws. Even the NRA is taking a step back and keeping its dumb mouth shut when it comes to Democrat-led votes on background checks and other gun control measures.

And Republicans are not very happy about it.

Why? Because they've got a bit of a symbiotic relationship with the NRA, whom they count on to rally public opinion against gun control laws and also give them a bit of cover for voting against them. Democrats propose gun control laws, the NRA asks its members to call up their representatives to say they're against it, and then those representatives get to say, "It's just what the public wants." That's how things are supposed to work.

One anonymous Republican lawmaker from a "solidly red district" complained to the National Journal that without the NRA pushing its members to call and complain, he now gets an equal amount of calls from those who are for and against these laws, and that's just not right! How is he supposed to pretend that the public is opposed to gun control laws if the NRA is not out there trying to make it look that way?
