From last week:: Alex Jones,,, the man is a trip. https://www.rawstory.com/alex-jones-2657357988/ Gay frogs? Seriously, Jones' hyperbole is fact-less as usual.
Besides not understanding basic math, studies have shown that while sperm count is decreasing, https://theconversation.com/male-fertility-is-declining-studies-show-that-environmental-toxins-could-be-a-reason-163795 it’s closer to a 50% decline over the last half-century, not 96%. There is less evidence that penis sizes are getting smaller. https://www.health.com/condition/infertility/penis-size-shrinking-pollution
A bit of good news,,,
Anti-LGBTQ activist Josh Duggar sentenced to 12 years in prison after he was found guilty of knowingly downloading pictures that showed graphic child sex abuse. Personally, I feel he should have received 20-25 with no parole but I'ma bitch. Mess with a child, all bets are off. https://www.lgbtqnation.com/2022/05/josh-duggar-sentenced-12-years-prison-child-porn-charges/
And now for some nitty gritty,,,
https://www.ndcourts.gov/lawyers/05395
I have heard of some bizarre rationalizations used to justify a particular court ruling. Apparently Judge Daniel Traynor is worried about a rash of infants having their genders surgically altered at birth. https://www.lgbtqnation.com/2022/05/trump-appointed-judge-claims-doctors-changing-babies-gender-reason-block-obamacare-rule/
A Trump-appointed judge just blocked federal agencies from enforcing part of the Affordable Care Act (ACA) on the grounds that it would require doctors to perform gender-affirming care, including surgery, on babies. The wild claim is patently false.
,,,[T]he Christian Employers Alliance alleged that the implementation of section 1557 of the ACA was an affront to their religious freedom. Essentially, the suit said that being required to treat patients with gender dysphoria would “[prevent] them from maintaining views and facilities in accordance with their religious beliefs.”
The suit sought to bring an injunction barring the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) and the Equal Opportunity Commission (EEOC) from carrying out their job duties by ensuring transgender patients are not discriminated against.
Judge Daniel Traynor, a Trump appointee, sided with the Christian Employers Alliance in saying that refusing care to transgender people was an expression of the plaintiff’s religious freedom.
Traynor’s opinion seems to be founded upon the idea that the HHS will be prosecuting doctors for refusing to medically transition infants.
So, based a the very false claim that babies are being transitioned, the judge has implied that the Christian Employers Alliance’s religious freedom outweighs transgender people’s right to be treated for their gender dysphoria.
What is despicable about Gosar's actions, the shooter was already identified BUT authorities “had shared no evidence about the shooter’s gender identity. Despite that lack of evidence, Rep. Paul Gosar and others claimed the gunman was transgender. Social media posts making the baseless claim have shared photos of a person unrelated to the attack.” Simply put Gosar endangered the life of an innocent woman. https://www.factcheck.org/2022/05/social-media-posts-make-baseless-claims-about-gender-identity-of-uvalde-shooter/
U.S. Rep. Paul Gosar of Arizona, a far-right Republican and major supporter of Donald Trump, tweeted and then deleted a false allegation that “a transsexual leftist illegal alien” was responsible for the mass shooting Tuesday at a Texas elementary school.
Gosar’s tweet came in response to another Twitter user who wondered if the shooter was the type of “trash” who supported Gosar and his ideological allies, such as U.S. Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene of Georgia, The Arizona Republic reports.
Gosar responded, “We know already fool. It’s a transsexual leftist illegal alien. … It’s apparently your kind of trash.” The tweet was on his personal account, not his U.S. House feed. He eventually deleted the message, and the person he was responding to deleted the comment that led to Gosar’s remark, but there are screen shots of the tweets. https://www.advocate.com/politics/2022/5/25/far-right-rep-paul-gosar-tweets-lie-texas-shooter-was-trans

In the same vane as Gosar we have MTGs wise words. Given the horrific tragedy of this past week, one would think the truth would mean something to MTG. Apparently not!!
Point one, being transgender is not a mental illness.
Point two, “[t]here is no evidence the suspect was transgender. The post misidentifies the image of the person holding the transgender flag in the post as Ramos. The mugshot in the post does show Ramos, though.” https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/factcheck/2022/05/27/fact-check-texas-suspect-salvador-ramos-falsely-identified-photo/9946178002/
This misidentification has been known for at least 24-hours. Long enough that MTG, or her team, to learn she had faulty information that needed correcting. MTG choose to lie instead. This POS should be removed from office.
And NO, I am not defending Ramos' actions. What I am attacking is the mischaracterization of transgender individuals as mentally ill and violent. What I am attacking is garbage like MTG attempting to score points by lying.
And FYI, the pond scum did win her primary.

This reminds me of the Criminal Minds episode “Open Season” from 2007.
Ethan Schmidt, a 24-year-old right-wing extremist, has announced that he will be “hunting” LGBTQ allies around Phoenix, Arizona during June, Pride month.
In a video recorded by Schmidt and re-posted onto Twitter by the right-wing watchdog account PatriotTakes, Schmidt explained that, during June, he plans on “exposing” the “Satanic Pride shrines for children” and LGBTQ-supportive employees at Target retail stores.
This
isn't Schmidt's first threat, Schmidt is a known anti-masker.
Authorities are well aware of his current threat and are
investigating as it is unclear if Schmidt can be charged with
threatening or intimidating per Arizona law because of what he
said in the video.

While Taylor's chance of winning the Republican nomination for GA governor was zero, I am happy to report that predictions held true. BUT, Taylor is a Trump loyalist. https://www.yahoo.com/news/she-lost-ga-guv-race-195504519.html
Far-right favorite Kandiss Taylor received just 3.4 percent of the vote in Georgia’s GOP primary for governor on Tuesday, less than one-twentieth of current Gov. Brian Kemp’s 73.7 percent of the vote. But that isn’t stopping Taylor from refusing to concede and claiming the election was “rigged.”
Taylor, a Trump loyalist who campaigned with the slogan “Jesus Guns Babies” and promised to “stand up to the Luciferian Cabal,” simply believes it’s impossible that she lost this spectacularly.
“We have a national data team working on the 2022 primary election fraud. More will be forthcoming,” Taylor campaign spokesperson Christi Maude told The Daily Beast. “Dr. Kandiss Taylor does not concede.”
“Given that my vote total currently lags my number of volunteers by nearly 20,000, I do not trust these election results and neither should any supporter of either of my opponents or candidates in any other races,” Taylor further wrote in a press release. “It is my opinion that our elections in Georgia have become a travesty spearheaded by the corrupt, organized, willful assault that Governor Brian Kemp, Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger, Attorney General Chris Carr, and gubernatorial candidate Stacey Abrams have inflicted on our election process.”
Regretfully, it does not sound like this is over. Hopefully it wont take 63 court cases.
Update
on a story I covered in March.
(https://interestinghmm.blogspot.com/2022/03/transcript-more-twats-for-week-ending.html)
The hotel owner who banned Native Americans from her property in South Dakota two months ago was arrested today for assaulting protesters at a demonstration organized by NDN Collective.
Connie Uhre, 75, the owner of the Grand Gateway Hotel in Rapid City, was charged with three counts of simple assault by the Rapid City Police Department for spraying what appeared to be a cleaning agent in the faces of several people outside the hotel.
Uhre’s arrest was confirmed by Warren Poaches, a spokesperson for the Rapid City police. "More information on the crime will be available on Monday," Poaches told Native News Online. https://www.yahoo.com/news/rapid-city-hotel-owner-arrested-020430158.html
It has come to my attention as I was scripting this episode, “The FBI brought right wing provocateur Ethan Schmidt in for questioning. Ethan has ties to Arizona Republicans and recently pledged to “hunt LGBT supporters” at Target and across Phoenix. Ethan falsely accused PatriotTakes of “actively promoting violence against” him. https://twitter.com/patriottakes/status/1529627071080804352
And with that I bring this episode to a close. Regretfully I am plum outta YTers to share, so I will bid you PEACE!!
