A group of drag performers went to Congress this week to lobby lawmakers to include protections for the LGBTQ community in federal civil rights legislation. This didn't sit well with Marjorie Taylor Greene, and she got on social media to cry about the "scary" drag performers who she continues to accuse of manipulating children, although that doesn't happen. Greene is just showing off her ignorance and bigotry.
Also, Republicans in the House of Representatives have launched a plan to prevent Steve Bannon from going to prison this coming Monday. They are a little behind the mark on this one, as Bannon will be reporting to jail in a few days. But their plan actually involves rewriting history by doing away with the legal filing the Democratic-controlled Congress used to justify not putting all of Kevin McCarthy's Republican picks on the January 6th Commission.
And during her primary victory party on Tuesday evening, Lauren Boebert took a moment to remind her supporters in the room with her that she doesn't even know who her father is. This was a very weird thing to say to the group, and it wasn't part of any conversation that was currently taking place. Boebert simply offered up that one-liner in an attempt to gain even more sympathy from the disgusting voters who looked past her atrocious behavior and pathetic Congressional record.
Finally, a recent story by ProPublica revealed that Donald Trump, through his company and his campaign, paid huge sums of money and granted enormous favors to individuals that have been called to either testify against him in court or that have been subpoenaed for information relating to his criminal trials. ProPublica never said that these payments were bribes or even accused Trump of breaking the law, but the former President is threatening to sue the publication anyway. This is what will happen if Trump gets back into office.
