I Didn't Say It ...

Will Ganss, out ABC producer and Good Morning America correspondent, condemning his hometown in Texas for considering revoking anti-discrimination protections for LGBTQ+ people:

"What I know to be true because I grew up in Arlington, Texas, is that every person deserves to feel safe, no matter who they love or what their preferences might be. In fourth grade, I got my ass absolutely kicked during a game of football at recess, and I ran immediately to my elementary school library because my librarian made sure that I knew that there was a safe space for me there. I'm still in touch with my elementary school music teacher because she cares about my success and safety and happiness as a human being. These are Arlington, Texas values. Arlington is a community that is filled with faith and filled with compassion and, yes, filled with queer people. I know because I am a person who is faith-filled and compassionate and queer, so before the vote on November 18, I would encourage you to reach out to your city council members, to your mayor and let them know how you feel about this. Y'all know I don't post a lot of stuff like this, but the younger version of me needs this version of me to say something."

Spot on. Good on Ganss for speaking up and out.

The Arlington City Council will vote on a revised ordinance November 18, which would remove “gender identity and expression” and “sexual orientation” as protected characteristics. The vote comes after the council temporarily suspended the clause in September due to threats from Cankles’ Regime.

Mark Pocan, out Democrat Representative from Wisconsin, blasts Cankles’ trade war and his misguided priorities:

“Of course it’s going to hurt us. You can’t throw tariffs around indiscriminately and then not negotiate because you’re mad about a pushback from one of the countries that you’re having a trade war with. People are paying too much for groceries, for durable goods; inflation is up from September, all because of Trump’s tariff taxes on all of us. It does have a negative effect on Americans, and it has a negative effect on Canadians. The president needs to be more mature and go back to negotiations. He’d be better off if he just took away this irresponsible use of tariffs since Congress is supposed to have that responsibility. And let’s get back to helping lower the cost for Americans.”

Get back to helping ALL Americans, not just the grifters and con artists and dog killers and rapists and heroin addicts.

All those elected people work for We The People and we need to remember that we have the power to change this but we have to get up, stand up, speak up and VOTE!

Charlie Angus, former Member of Canda’s House Oof Commons, on Cankles AI sh*t-show:

“This is a guy who showed an AI video of himself dumping diarrheas on his own citizens. So the fact that he’s freaking out because we showed a video that just had Ronald Reagan speaking shows  he’s not trustworthy.”

He’s a narcissistic child; a clueless moron.

Not trustworthy? He’s a criminal, a rapist, a racist and ….

Letitia James, New York’s indicted attorney general, spoke at a campaign rally for mayoral frontrunner Zohran Mamdani, and did not mention the name of the President but took him on nonetheless:

“I will not bow, I will not break, I will not bend, I will not capitulate. I will not give in. I will not give up. You come for me, you gotta come through all of us. I won’t give up and I won’t give in. So we have no time to linger and focus on pettiness and revenge. We’ve gotta press on, press forward, continue the journey, claim the victory … and so I fear no man.”

Of all the things Cankles most fears it a woman of color standing up to him, and James is doing all of that and I stand with her every step of the way.

Ariana Grande, actor and singer, speaking to The Cult:

“I want to check in with [his] voters. I have one very genuine question: it's been 250 days. Now that immigrants have been violently torn from their families and communities have been destroyed, now that trans people have been blamed for virtually everything and live in fear, now that free speech is on the brink of collapse for us all—has your life gotten better? Have your groceries gotten cheaper? Has your health insurance premium gone done? Has your work/life balance improved? Can you take a vacation yet? Are you happier? Has the widespread suffering of others paid off for you in the way he promised it would or are you still waiting?"

Good on Grande for speaking out; she has a sizable social media presence and her standing up and resisting could reach a whole new audience … younger people who are the future of America.

Erik Bottcher, out New York City Councilman, running for the seat of retiring Congressman Jerry Nadler, and raising nearly $700,000 in campaign funds in his first 24 hours:

“This congressional district has a proud tradition of representatives who’ve fought for LGBTQ+ rights, from Bella Abzug to Jerry Nadler, but we’ve never actually had one of our own at the table. And there’s an old saying, ‘If you’re not at the table, you’re on the menu.’ Our community is under attack in terrifying ways, and it’s time to take the gloves off. I love my country, and right now it’s being torn apart by [Cankles] and his neo-fascist forces. This is the moment for all Americans, especially those of us in public service, to stand up and fight back. I’m out in the community day and night, every day of the week. People want real representation. They want to know and feel connected to the people who speak for them. That’s been at the heart of my work in City Council District 3, and it’s exactly what I’d bring to the 12th District if I run. I’ve spent my life serving my community, and serving in Congress would be one of the highest honors imaginable.”

This historic, grassroots-driven achievement marks the biggest first-day total in New York State history and one of the biggest nationwide. Bottcher is one of the city’s most visible LGBTQ+ officials and a rising star in Democratic politics.
