Gabby Williams, WNBA player for the Golden State Valkyries,
on transgender players on her team or any other in the league: “I think it’s trans, trans rights, right now, is our new battle. We see trans people’s rights being stripped away from them; there’s a lot of discourse around trans athletes and what they can compete in. I would welcome a trans athlete on my team or against my team, anytime. I don’t think it’s a problem in the world. It’s just another way to kind of attack trans people. We’ve seen players like Layshia Clarendon, who stepped into that forefront, and have been brave enough, and courageous enough, to step up. So I guess that’s the next battle we have to fight as athletes.” The number of trans athletes in women’s sports is miniscule
but the GOP’s fear-mongering of trans-women makes it seem like they’re taking
over the world. They want to live their lives and they choose, playing
sports or not. |

Abdul El-Sayed, Democrat candidate for Senate from Michigan, on the right using his
name against him: “When you don’t have any ideas all you have is hate. My name is not raising your gas prices. My name is not the reason we’re in an illegal war. My name is not the reason you can’t afford healthcare, rent or insurance. If the best they’ve got is to point to my name and say they can’t pronounce it, then we’re going to have a good time over the next thirteen weeks.” Learn to say his name because you may be saying it for years
to come. His name is not a crime, his religion is not a crime, and neither are
responsible for the mess we’re in … that name, as we all know, is He Who Shall
Not Be Mentioned. |

Jon Ossoff, Democrat Senator from Georgia, on restoring
America after the midterms: “We won’t just restore checks and balances for the next two years. We will rebuke him so decisively that no President will dare try this kind of brazen corruption and abuse for centuries.” Work on getting things done for We The People and work on
putting Cankles and his criminal regime in chains. |
 |
Jeff Tiedrich, political blogger, on the new dead muskrat on
Cankles’ head: “I guess the fucking idiot didn’t want anyone asking him about the desiccated badger pelt he had hot-glued to his fat water-logged head, and because the fucking idiot kept himself far away from the reporters, not one of them had the opportunity to stand up and ask, ‘What the fuck is wrong with you?’” I would have played that question on a loop forever … “Mr.
President? What’s with the new rug?” |
 |
Seth Abramson, journalist, on Iran taking a rational
approach while Cankles is the unhinged despot: “Yesterday the Islamic Republic of Iran essentially declared that [Cankles] is too mentally deranged and pathologically deceitful to negotiate with … so they won’t. And you know what? They’re right. That’s a normal, rational, adult position. So why don’t we see it in the US?” I think many of us see it, but the GOP is too afraid of what
Cankles’ might do to them to speak up, and the Cult of MAGAt is simply too
stupid to realize they’re stupid. |
 |
Joe Walsh, former GOP Congressman and talk radio host, Cankles’
crimes: “He’s most likely a pedophile. He initiated and is overseeing a massive government coverup to keep his name and the names of all the other Epstein class predators hidden. He was handed the strongest post-COVID economy in the industrialized world and has singlehandedly fucked it up. He’s put masked federal thugs on our streets who are lawlessly terrorizing immigrants and citizens. He’s launching wars and pushing regime change all over the world. And that’s just the start. He should be in jail, not the White House.” Everything is distraction, deflection and lies, about
Epstein, jet planes, ballrooms and arches and crypto. It’s all lies. |
 |
Van Lathan, journalist, producer, political
commentator & LGBTQ+ ally, on trans acceptance: “If you cannot gift trans people with visibility, humanity and acceptance, could you at least gift them with silence? Could you at least shut the fuck up about it.” It’s very much like when straight people said The Gays were
shoving their “lifestyle” in straight peoples’ faces when all we were doing was
living our lives. Trans people are living their lives as they are, and it doesn’t
hurt anyone to know that. It’s simple respect. |
Still checking for the BBO (Big Beautiful Obituary.)
ReplyDeleteI don't think we'll miss it ... front page news and everywhere all at once!!!
DeleteTrans people are the new boogeyman.
ReplyDeleteRemember when gay people were the social wedge? I do.
Al-Sayed, Mamdani, Ossoff. Those names need to be heard more.
And everybody knows Cankles is a demented, senile pedophile. Especially his enemies. And that is dangerous for this country.
XOXO
It's always a small group of people ... people of color, gay people, trans people ... the GOP fears the most!
Deletexoxo
We used to hear about gay people shoving their sexuality down people's throats. There were a couple of these type men who I would not have minded shoving my sexuality down their throats.
ReplyDeleteAnd yet all we really want is to live our lives as everyone else.
DeleteSayed will win and the Christian Nationalists will start stabbing themselves in the eye. I follow Jeff Tiedrich. He has truly run out of fucks to give.
ReplyDeleteEl-Sayed is already not playing with the wingnuts and that will only make them more angry and his base happier.
DeleteOssoff: That's a tiny step in the right direction. If they take both chambers, they need to be preparing legislation to make sure there is never another administration like this one ever again. So if they take all three branches in '28. that legislation is ready to roll out on day 1.
ReplyDeleteI hope that's the plan ... I do want Democrats to focus om getting this country back on track and out of the hands of the Billionaire Class, but I'd also like some retribution in the form of jail for these criminals.
DeleteTrans people are the bigots' new whipping boy, that's for sure. The LGBTQ+ community needs to stand behind them now.
ReplyDeleteStand together or fall apart. We went through it and now we have to hold the door open for the rest of us.
DeleteThe slogan for the Crankles GOP should be... Keeping HATE alive. Plaster that on all the billboards around the country.
ReplyDeleteHate AND fear!
DeleteI worry that Donald Duck will somehow manage to fake tehe results of the upcoming elections so that it looks as though the Repugnants have won....until it turns out that in every state they won 100% of the vote.
ReplyDeleteI think he may have a tough time; yes, he does have SCOTUS, but he tried to sue 70 times to overturn the last election and lost 70 times.
Deletethe dog's mother
ReplyDeletexoxo :-)
Solid way to start the weekend, sweetpea! Standing in solidarity with everyone against the. fake patriotism of the GOP and the menance currently occupying the People's House! xoxo
ReplyDeleteStand together and vote!!
Deletexoxo
Jeff Tiedrich's comment had me in stiches!!! And Joe Walshs comment is just perfect and very true. The against Trump line up continues....but we still cant get rid of him.
ReplyDeleteMore are coming out against him which means they see his power and support waning.
DeleteI found a great political cartoon about Cankle's New Rug for Sunday!
The idea that trans people have become the hot button issue for MAGAts is vile, especially when the even bigger threat to society is people who have their ears shot off and then grow them back. They should be jailed.
ReplyDeleteBut they believe whatever the ear tells them and they fall for fear ... of trans women in sports and brown people taking their jobs and Haitians and Muslims and The Gays and women and and and ....
DeleteYou know they have nothing to campaign on when the Republicans moan about communists and trans people. Ridiculous. Let people live their life.
ReplyDeleteWhen you back a criminal and let him destroy the economy while handing cash to the 1% you really don't have a leg to stand on.
DeleteThe distractions get lamer becoz they have no Policy and they know they are responsible for too much that is unpopular across the board... so it's all sounding very desperate.
ReplyDeleteExactly ... desperation, I just heard some GOP Congressman on MSNow say the party has done a lot for the middle class and now they need to help the rich.
DeleteYou are so right to point out that, "The number of trans athletes in women’s sports is minuscule". So small that the issue that fascists like Trump keep scratching away at is in reality so tiny as to be utterly insignificant. They dig away at it to scaremonger and rouse anti-progressive annoyance in their dumb base.
ReplyDeleteIt's the new thing to fear ... oh, and the Communists, too!
DeleteI heard on the news about the Iranians not negotiating, good for them. You simply cannot negotiate with idiots who keep changing their minds when things don't go their way. I like what the above people have said. Abdul El-Sayed; Joe Walsh "he should be in jail not the White House; Jon Ossoff "we will rebuke him so decisively"
ReplyDeleteThese are the type of people you should have running your country.
Fingers crossed!
Delete"What the fuck is wrong with you?" really IS the universal question for Donald Trump, regarding virtually any topic.
ReplyDeleteAnd I would LOVE to hear a reporter ask him that!
