These Bitches ...

Well, today we have a Trifecta of Bitches. I was planning on posting about Joni ‘Let Them Eat Cake or Just Let Them Die’ Ernst and then it struck me there were others in the GOP who held Town Halls and were raked over the coals for their blind support of The Fascist Felon and his agenda, so let’s dish …

An awkward moment came at a town hall meeting on Friday in Butler, Iowa when Iowa GOP Senator, and Bitch,  Joni Ernst, defended the spending reforms in a House-passed budget reconciliation package that are intended to stop people who crossed into the country illegally from receiving federal benefits.

First, undocumented immigrants are generally not eligible for full Medicaid benefits but may be eligible for emergency Medicaid or Medicaid for labor and delivery services, so quit acting like they get free healthcare for life because that’s you.. 

Someone in the crowd tried to talk over Ernst, interrupting her answer about changes to Medicaid and SNAP, yelling out that people are “going to die” because of the reforms and Joni Ernst answered:

“Well, we’re all going to die.”

Yes, Joni, that’s true, but you, with your healthcare and pension for life paid for by WE THE PEOPLE will die after receiving full medical care, possibly surrounded by your loved ones while people who had their Medicaid stripped away will die alone and without care.

Um, how do I put this? Fuck you, you entitled Bitch.

PS The next day, Ernst doubled down on her vile speech with a sarcastic apology video filmed at a cemetery and posted to social media:

“I made an incorrect assumption that everyone in the auditorium understood that yes, we are all going to perish from this Earth. I'm really, really glad I did not have to bring up the subject of the tooth fairy as well, but for those that would like to see eternal and everlasting life, I encourage you to embrace my lord and savior, Jesus Christ.”

Your Lord and Savior is wondering why you hate immigrants and why you’re a foul human being when speaking to the people for whom you work.

God is watching you Joni, and She is not happy.

Nebraska GOP Representative Mike Flood was booed relentlessly at his own town hall after he admitted to a roomful of constituents that he had simply not read some parts of The Felon’s budget plan.

“Can you please tell us why you voted to approve a budget bill ... which effectively prohibits federal courts from enforcing contempt orders … which would then allow current and future administrations to ignore those contempt orders by removing the enforcement capabilities?”

The question is in reference to a deeply biased provision that the GOP slipped in the budget bill to protect The Felon from being held accountable by court orders. Additionally, anyone seeking to file an injunction or restraining order—two things the courts have already levied against the regime numerous times—would be forced to put up a financial bond.

“I do not agree with that section that was added to that bill.”

“You voted for all of it!”

“This provision was unknown to me when I voted for the bill. I am not gonna hide the truth.… We must allow our federal courts to operate and issue injunctions.”

Yes, Mike Flood voted for a bill without reading the entire bill. This Bitch is for us and not doing his job but collecting a hefty check.

Constituents in Iowa's 2nd Congressional District met GOP Representative Ashley Hinson with boos, jeers and laughs during her town hall last week during her opening remarks:

"I think it's important to note that when we look at last year, when we look at the election, I think Americans overwhelmingly rejected the status quo for the country … The president is, I believe, fighting for you and fighting for me.”

"No!"

Hinson then said she was "proud" to vote for the sweeping Fascist budget bill and was met with major boos and jeers, forcing her to pause her speech.

“I’m here to clean up lots of the misinformation out there today."

The crowd laughed.

After a man accused this regime of "breaking laws by ignoring federal judge's orders" Hinson replied:

"Judges need to follow the law. I don't think this country needs another impeachment charade,"

The crowd responded by calling her a fraud.

This Bitch is the worst; she will listen to you, then say you’re wrong, that what you read and heard and saw isn’t true.

This Bitch needs to go, Iowa.

All These Bitches need to go.

Why Is It ...

… that, out of the blue, for no good reason, I’ll say things like, “Who in the hell in their right mind would buy living room furniture with cup holders in it?” to the person who has living room furniture with cup holders in it?

… that the Barbie movie made more in one day than Ron DeSantis has fundraised in his entire political career?

… that Americans keep reelecting all the old white people to Congress? I mean, god love her, but Dianne Feinstein is no longer able to serve; and then there’s Mitch McConnell’s little freeze this week. Start voting out these in for life politicians and get some new blood into office.

… that people talk about their inner child? I don’t have one; I have an inner old lady that calls everyone a c*nt and wants to be in bed by 8:30.

… MAGAts want to impeach President Biden? Maybe cuz he’s creating jobs, infrastructure, manufacturing, 140 federal judges, and getting inflation down and all they have is fake outrage about laptops, gas stoves, M&Ms, and Barbies.

… that Michael Elizabeth Pence thinks he has a shot at the White House? Democrats hate him. Pro-choice Americans hate him. MAGAts hate him. The only one who appears to like him is Karen Pence and even she’s waffling.

… that the people shooting up Bud Light cans and burning Barbies call everyone else “easily triggered?”

… Rick Scott, Republican, keeps Tweeting that Joe Biden is a criminal when  he’s the one who defrauded millions from Medicare in a healthcare scam? Oh, yeah, GOP.

Vote Them All Out: Chuck Basye Revives 'Don't Say Gay' Bill

Chuck Basye, a Republican … because, of course,  state lawmaker in Missouri wants to give parents the right to sue school districts that allow their children to be exposed to LGBT-related material, without first notifying them. This new Hate Law would require districts to give parents an opportunity to opt their children out if class material, guest speakers, or displays mention sexual orientation or gender identity. 

If they just mention it.

Basye, a clear moron, as you will see, says his reboot of a Don’t Say Gay bill is in response to a Gay Straight Alliance putting up posters at a Columbia, Missouri middle school, but … wait for it, it’s epic … Basye insists the bill isn’t anti-gay:

“There’s already a sign on the Business Loop [in Columbia] that labels me as a homophobe. This is exactly why people don’t want to speak out, because they don’t want to be labeled.” 

Let’s see … you don’t want teachers to say gay in school, or allow anyone to say gay in school, or allow parents to yank their kids from school if anyone says gay.

Looks like homophobia to me. And here’s a quick test, Chuck: switch out Black for gay, and pass a law that allows parents to remove their children from class if Black people are discussed. Does that sound racist to you? Would you pass such a Hate Bill?

But that’s what you’re doing to the LGBTQ+ community.

So, people of Missouri, perhaps in this upcoming election, you should all vote Blue, and choose Basye’s Democratic opponent, Adrian Plank.

“The bill would deem LGBTQ content in our public schools ‘inappropriate. What I find inappropriate is a legislator that spends his time trying to pass bills that uses the power of the government to treat those most vulnerable like they are lesser human beings, or even worse, that they don’t exist.”

Plank calls it inappropriate; I call it Hate, and it’s back again because we have Hate in the White House.

If Alabama lawmakers get their way, transgender students would be required … required … to play sports under their “gender assignment at birth” instead of how they live their lives.

The House State Government Committee voted 8-4 for the Gender Is Real Legislative Act, or GIRL Act—isn’t that a cute acronym from a bunch of backwoods asshats—proposed by Republican, because, of course, Representative Chris Pringle. The bill, which awaits input from the full House, would ban K-12 schools from allowing trans athletes to compete under their gender identity, and force them to participate under the gender listed on their original birth certificate.

Nationally, opponents criticized the measure saying it is motivated by fear and discrimination and ignorance towards trans people, but transphobic bigot Chris . Pringle said the bill is designed to ensure a level playing field in girls’ sporting events:

“These young ladies work very hard in order to condition themselves and go out to compete. I want to make sure the person that is competing against them does not have an unfair advantage based on the biological effects of testosterone.”

And then Pringle goes on to say that he knows of no competition problems in the state but says disputes have risen elsewhere so he wants to write bigotry and hate into law.

Carmarion Anderson, Alabama state director of the Human Rights Campaign, said there is no evidence that trans athletes are disrupting athletic competition and says the bill is rooted in discrimination:

“Fairness is not discrimination. Fairness is about allowing a child to live out their truth and be guided also by the love of their parents.”

Here’s the deal, this viciousness comes from the top down; when you have a president saying trans Americans should not be allowed to serve in the military that kind of bigotry trickles down into our schools, and legislatures, where hatred becomes law.

Vote Blue, no matter who; I doubt there’s hope for Alabama because they’re bigotry lives and breeds and breathes in their politics, but we can stop it elsewhere and then one day, someday, maybe Alabama will learn a thing or two.

This week an Iowa House panel advanced a measure that would prohibit school districts from allowing “instruction of any kind” related to sexual orientation or gender identity, without first notifying parents and giving them an opportunity to opt out their children.

Cut to the future …this proposal has passed and pete Buttigieg is elected president; Iowa teachers would be barred from mentioning the president’s sexual orientation.

Coincidentally, Pete Buttigieg won the Iowa Democratic caucus last week.
