Americans in cities all over the nation came out to represent during the No Kings rallies. My city of Columbia, SC was no different. Though I did not stay as long as I would have liked to (It was hot and I'm old. Sue me already), we had quite a number at the State House downtown. It was very empowering but folks, please keep that energy when we get to the midterm elections next year. "Batman" may have shown up at the rally, but when it comes to Trump and where our government is at the present moment, only we can save ourselves.
Analyzing and refuting the inaccuracies lodged against the lgbt community by religious conservative organizations. Lies in the name of God are still lies.

JD Vance defends GOP leaders caught making Holocaust jokes, voicing gay slurs, and calling Black people monkeys
The messages published by Politico on Tuesday span seven months (between January and August) and include chats from Young Republican leaders in New York, Arizona, and Vermont. According to the outlet, William Hendrix, the Kansas Young Republicans’ vice chair, used racial slurs, and Peter Giunta, who at the time was chair of the organization, said people who did not vote for him to become chair of the Young Republican National Federation needed to “go to the gas chamber.” “Can we fix the showers? Gas chambers don’t fit the Hitler aesthetic,” Joe Maligno, general counsel for the New York State Young Republicans, wrote. “I’m ready to watch people burn now,” Annie Kaykaty, New York’s national committeewoman, added.… According to the outlet, epithets like “f****t,” “retarded” and “n**ga” appeared more than 250 times in the chat logs. Luke Mosiman, the chair of the Arizona Young Republicans, asked in one chat whether others were watching an NBA game, and Giunta responded that he’d “go to the zoo if I wanted to watch monkey play ball.”
On Wednesday’s edition of The Charlie Kirk Show, Vance addressed the controversy and again characterized the group chat’s members as “kids” and “young boys”:. . the reality is that kids do stupid things. Especially young boys, they tell edgy, offensive jokes, like that’s what kids do. And I really don’t want us to grow up in a country where a kid telling a stupid joke, telling a very offensive, stupid joke is cause to ruin their live. And at some point we’re all all gonna have to say enough of this BS we’re not going to allow the worst moment in a 21-year-old’s group chat to ruin a kid’s life for the rest of time. That’s just not okay. Like, we live in a digital world, this stuff is now etched in stone online. We’re all going to have to say, you know what? No, no, no. We’re not doing this. We’re not canceling kids because they do something stupid in the group chat. And if I have to be the person who carries that message forward, I’m fine with it."

'Anti-LGBTQ group accused of using false evidence' at SCOTUS, but may win its case anyway' & other Tue/Wed news briefs
The group fighting to protect so-called conversion therapy in the U.S. Supreme Court case Chiles v. Salazar has been accused of misrepresenting its evidence by the very researchers it cites. The Alliance Defending Freedom, a conservative Christian legal advocacy group that has played a pivotal role in several court cases involving abortion access and LGBTQ+ rights, will argue before the nation's high court Tuesday that justices should strike down state laws banning conversion therapy for minors.The group cites a 2016 study by Lisa Diamond and Clifford Rosky, who have since condemned the ADF for “profoundly” misrepresenting their findings. “It’s deceptive,” Rosky recently told The Guardian. “Lawyers owe a duty of candor to the court. You cannot offer false evidence, and if you do so accidentally and find out, you have to correct that. ... They claim our work supports conversion therapy when our work clearly and specifically condemns conversion therapy on the same page they’re citing.”

Pictures - Famously Hot SC Pride a huge success & reminder that the LGBTQ community won't be made invisible
Famously Hot SC Pride, returned Saturday for its 36th year in my state of South Carolina. As always, it was a fun time had by all. And it was definitely needed when one takes into account this year's political climate. The festival was another reminder that LGBTQ people, our allies, our kids, and families aren't going to be made invisible.

'Heritage Foundation caught pushing false stats in attempt to classify trans people as terrorists' & other Mon/Tue news briefs
![]() |
The dirty hands of longtime anti-LGBTQ activist Roger Severino are all over the Heritage Foundation's attempt to classify trans people as terrorists. |
Roger Severino, a vice president at the Heritage Foundation, defended the claim on X/Twitter by providing information from a dataset of only eight shootings, cherry-picked from Gun Violence Archive, an online archive on gun violence which draws data from law enforcement, media, government and commercial sources. The Gun Violence Archive has data for 4,147 mass shootings that took place in the United States between 2018 and 2025. Severino said that he only picked eight of the shootings because they’re “major shootings,” a term that has no strict definition.
In 2018, The Advocate claimed that he was attempting to "erase trans people out of existence" by pushing a memo which would say that gender identity doesn't exist and that gender is set at birth and defined by genitalia. Severino was also responsible for an attempt to create a rule which would roll back protections for the trans community against discrimination through Obamacare, and a "conscience rule" which said any healthcare worker could deny services to LGBTQ people based on "moral or religious" reasons. In November 2019, three different federal courts struck down the rule and one court found that HHS exaggerated a justification for the rule. Severino was pointed out in an NPR article to have contributed to that exaggeration.
Heritage Foundation uses false data to smear trans people as school shooters - The Advocate gives more details.

Charlie Kirk wannabes get laughed off of HBCU campus, mocked on Twitter
![]() |
Two Charlie Kirk wannabes got laughed off of an HBCU campus when they tried that "debate me, bro" nonsense. |
As we move further away from the awful situation of Charlie Kirk's assassination, I am glad to see that more people are coming to a basic revelation. And that revelation is the fact that Charlie Kirk was a two-bit hustling grifter and a homophobic racist to boot. Some folks have been steadily trying manufacture a narrative that Kirk was someone who wanted to debate and let both sides of an argument make their points. That's a damn lie.
Kirk's debates were anything but. During his "debates," Kirk bullied younger college students who had less public speaking experience than him. He would talk over them, insult them and then rely on carefully edited videos and tweets to present a ludicrous claim that he "destroyed" them. The only reason why pundits such as Ezra Klein and Brian Stelter gave Kirk undeserved praise after his passing was because he gave them something to write about and kissed their asses in face-to-face meetings. Of course he did. They were useful to him. He needed their influence to spread his nonsense. One wonders what he said about them behind their backs.
Bear in mind that none of what I have just said justifies Charlie Kirk's murder. Even as we criticize the way Kirk died, we cannot allow him to become a martyr. Charlie Kirk was no martyr. Far from it.
All of my above comments are leading up to something which happened Wednesday.
A bunch of Kirk wannabes got a much-needed reception when they tried that "debate me" junk at a Tennessee State University, a historically Black campus. There was no violence but a lot of mockery. It's what one should expect when a group of people don't want their humanity to be the subject of a "debate." Or don't want to be dragged into a situation (in this case, Kirk's murder) which had nothing to do with them.

'Moms for Liberty chapter president strips at school board meeting in attempt to smear trans kids' & other Mon/Tue news briefs
![]() |
Beth Bourne, Moms for Liberty chapter president of Yolo County in CA, stripped at a recent school board in an attempt to smear trans kids. |
Beth Bourne, president of the Yolo County Moms for Liberty chapter, launched into a tirade against transgender students in locker rooms and bathrooms before abruptly stripping off her top and pants. The stunt left board members stunned, forced the meeting into recess, and underscored just how unhinged the movement’s tactics have become.. . . This was hardly Bourne’s first brush with notoriety for outlandish, anti-LGBTQ+ theatrics. Last year she went viral after berating drag queens in a hotel lobby in Hawaii, demanding a refund for the mere act of encountering them. The clip drew a petition to oust her from her staff position at UC Davis. The university held off, but she eventually lost the job anyway—thanks to Trump’s education cuts, which she publicly cheered even as she admitted they cost her own livelihood.
Bourne’s crusade against LGBTQ+ rights has also been deeply personal—and cruel. Her own child came out to her as nonbinary, a revelation that, according to them, only hardened her extremism. “I was ready to come out to everybody because I had been holding it in for a really long time,” the now-adult child told the Sacramento Bee. “From my coming out to my moving out, her views that she expressed to me started to get more aggressive and more extreme.”

I humiliated a Trump supporting white supremacist on Thursday. How was your day?
On the risk of bragging, I embarrassed a "prominent" white supremacist today. I put the word prominent in quotes because to me, labeling a white supremacist as prominent is akin to pointing out the scuzziest looking rat in a group of rats.
Allow me to give a little background.
On Wednesday, the dumbass who some Americans were stupid enough to put back into the White House (because I sure as hell didn't vote for the sentient brain tumor) announced that he was declaring Antifa to be a "major terrorist organization."
For the benefit of those who don't know, Antifa is
. . . a left-wing anti-fascist and anti-racist political movement in the United States. It consists of a highly decentralized array of autonomous groups that use nonviolent direct action, or violence to achieve their aims. Antifa political activism includes non-violent methods such as poster and flyer campaigns, mutual aid, speeches, protest marches, and community organizing. Some who identify as antifa also use tactics involving digital activism, doxing, harassment, physical violence, and property damage. Supporters of the movement aim to combat far-right extremists, including neo-Nazis and white supremacists.
In 2016, Gionet turned to the politics of Donald Trump and the alt-right in what he described as a rejection of "political correctness". By 2017, Gionet's political views had radicalized; that year, he began to use his social media platform and Internet activism to promote racist and antisemitic ideologies, which included sharing neo-Nazi content on social media. He also played a role in the 2017 white supremacist Unite the Right rally in Charlottesville, Virginia.. . . Originally known as an extremely online personality, Baked Alaska was gradually banned from most mainstream social media platforms. In January 2021, Gionet livestreamed the U.S. Capitol building breach by a pro-Trump mob, which was found to be a violation of his release.It was later reported that Gionet's footage was used by the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) to identify other trespassers. Gionet was later arrested by federal agents that month in connection with his activities at the Capitol. He was released pending trial and continued livestreaming while facing federal charges. On January 10, 2023, Gionet was sentenced to 60 days in jail. Gionet was pardoned by Donald Trump on January 20, 2025.

'Nancy Mace's latest attempt to exploit Charlie Kirk's death fails' & other Wed/Thur news briefs
This and other things she has done to exploit Kirk's death proves that Mace is without a doubt, the sleaziest, most disgusting member of Congress. And that is INCLUDING Ted Cruz. She's like Alexis on 'Dynasty' without the beauty, style, intelligence, good fashion sense, taste, culture or basic decency (and that's saying a lot because Alexis had very little decency.) Mace is an attention-desperate, greedy, grasping monstrosity who would roll around in dogshit to get at least give minutes on Fox News.

Charlie Kirk's 'avengers' are making opportunistic fools of themselves
This post is not about Charlie Kirk.
Instead, it's about those who have taken it upon themselves to avenge his death, so to speak. I'm talking about all of the folks who are issuing violent threat, doxxing people, putting up social media blacklists causing people to get fired for comments which can be construed as celebrating Kirk's death, and targeting groups they claim are celebrating Kirk's death.
I'm talking about people like Vice President J.D. Vance, Rep Nancy Mace, our Family Dollar Fuhrer Stephen Miller, Donald Trump himself, other right-wing Congressional leaders and assorted hysterically unhinged far-right social media influencers. These are the folks who claim that they want to "preserve Charlie Kirk's defense of free speech" by creating a reign of terror against speech.
Don't get me wrong because I understand the anger. A lot of folks got called out for making fun of George Floyd's murder. And some of those comments about Kirk have been distasteful. There can be an argument made about free speech and an opposite one made about the consequences of speech.
But in truth, this situation with Kirk strikes me as opportunistic. With Floyd, people were angry at the barbaric way he died. People on the right came out with all sort vile claims about Floyd after his death. They claimed he was a woman beater and drug user. They, Charlie Kirk including, claimed that all the rage over his death was exaggerated.
But to a lot of people, how Floyd lived his life wasn't the point. It was the vulgar way he died. The image of the Derek Chauvin with his knee callously on Floyd's neck put an enduring image to accompany claims made by Black Americans about police brutality.
In stark contrast, something incredibly distasteful is peeking out behind all the anger against those who have been accused of celebrating Kirk's murder. The threats of retribution, compiled social media blacklists, name calling and finger pointing seems to not be coming from a place of rage about Kirk's death, but a place of veiled disappointment that none of the groups Kirk targeted with his vitriol can be scapegoated for his murder.
No "transgender mass shooter," no "criminally minded Black person," no "savage illegal." When it came to who murdered Kirk, none of the tropes he exploited to dehumanize could be applied. There was no "Charlie Kirk was right about these people and that's why he was murdered" narrative which could be created. The alleged perpetrator, Tyler Robinson, is a 22-year-old white man from a conservative Republican family.
So aside from trying to whitewash all of the vulgar aspects of Kirk's comments and attempting to make Robinson out to be an innocent victim of "leftist indoctrination" (not to mention hanging on to a story about his alleged transgender roommate/lover/or what have you), self-anointed avengers of Charlie Kirk decided to rally around attacking the only folks they can - those who they claim celebrated his murder.
None of these people, as distasteful some of their comments were - had anything to do with Kirk's death, but they serve a purpose. Charlie Kirk's avengers want to create a nationwide revolution around his murder but the very thing they lack is a suitable scapegoat. Regardless of the way he lived, Floyd's death spurred genuine anger about police brutality. Kirk's death is spurring genuine anger too, but it's not in the direction his so-called avengers can exploit. So, until a more suitable scapegoat comes along, the folks accused of celebrating Kirk's death are suitable distractions to channel the crowd rage.
And if a more suitable scapegoat doesn't come along, don't be surprised if Charlie Kirk's 'avengers' attempt to create one.

Charlie Kirk assassination proves how spiritually rotten Nancy Mace's soul is

Law enforcement tonight: We have idea who the shooter is. pic.twitter.com/bJptJvnJmT
We know Charlie Kirk would want us to pray for such an evil, and lost individual like Tyler Robinson to find Jesus Christ.
— Rep. Nancy Mace (@RepNancyMace) September 12, 2025
We will try to do the same.
A little advice, Nancy dear. Perhaps you should worry less about Tyler Robinson finding Jesus and start looking for Him yourself. If someone looked up the phrase "split hell wide open" in the dictionary, they'd find your Congressional photo.
I'd wager that at this point, your soul is so rotten that the devil himself wouldn't claim it.
