Nancy Mace, whose bra size - of which she is obviously proud, at least from her fashion choices - is at least twice her IQ, seems to have found what she thinks is the next contrived fake outrage to get her on Fox and Newsmax, something she’d far rather do than actually work on legislation to help people in her district.
Goons and traitors. A crazy house. WAPO editorial board wrote a tepid denunciation of one crackpot, rfk,Jr. My response which they may not print:
"ALL of these nominations are ABNORMAL! RFK, Jr is only one of the many so far designed for ONE purpose and one purpose only: to DECAPITATE the Federal government and in effect shred the system that, though imperfect and in need of improvement, has provided rule of law not rule of retribution, health, safety, financial stability, environmental oversight for the vast majority of people instead of carte blanche for food, drug, communications companies, banks and monied interests to function without regulation and oversight. And while you take a weak swipe at a real crackpot, he wants crackpots because he is one, sexual predators because he is one, traitors because he is one, fraudsters because he is one, etc, etc, etc. This so called administration is so far from normal, he will eventually appoint Nurse Rachet to give anyone considered knowledgeable and still sane to submit to a frontal lobe lobotomy. WAPO editors you write as if there is a normal process underway. No. There is a grave being dug and we're all expected to do our part by holding the shovel. Time to stop playing the game the orange felon is playing."
There's no helping a fucking moron. 40% of Americans cannot read, comprehend and follow the instructions on a bottle of Aspirin. I'm sure among Trump voters, that's around 70-80%.
Democracy is the theory that the common people know what they want, and deserve to get it good and hard. - H. L. Mencken
Of course they thought that. Rupert has done nothing but preach how Dems are destroying our democracy. As Goebbels dictated, accuse them of what you do.
Well...I can understand that when you consider that many of his voters were being manipulated via Xitter and right wing media organizations minute by minute on every kind of internet platform. Fear. And knowing little to nothing. Accepting lies as truth. And NO ANSWER from dems. Schumer is making a huge mistake now by being quiet about 47s picks IMO.
Yes. They believed the propaganda coming from calling the dems communists, socialists, fascists, etc. Not all, but many who voted for him have not been engaged with history or even anything in the news. Much 8f what they were seeing was on social media, Newsmax, Onan, Faux. Newsmax has been touting what a great cabinet he has nominated, better even than the Founders way back when.
i understand your outrage, Tom. They seem to be itching for a fight any chance they get, rather than creating meaningful legistation that will improve the lives of all Americans, including the ones who voted these imbeciles into office. The bar is set so low, it's buried underground.
Excuse me but, not to sound callouse, meaningful legislation is history. The coming legislation will be meaningful only to their fascist ends. Outrage must be focussed and organized. There is no Superman we can call to divert the asteroid speeding toward our planet.
They have to look for fights, because they have nothing else to offer and if they're not fighting in public people, including their constituents, will expect them to do the jobs they were elected to and none of them has any idea how to go about that.
Pretty much. There's a good primer for them in an old Allen Drury book, Come Nineveh, Come Tyre, about what happens when a Russian puppet wins the presidency. Amazingly prescient for a book that is now about 51 years old. (Editor's note, the age has been corrected)
Sarah McBride is a woman, period. When she enters a women’s restroom, she is not looking for someone to rape. She is looking to relieve herself. Mace is a publicity hound seeking to make a name for herself in trump world, nothing more. Performative cruelty.
These judgmental cretins should look up Janet Mock. A women who has been through it all and is more feminine that any of the arses blasting any who don’t share their weaponized idiocy
History apparently does circle around. I read when the first Black woman was elected to congress years ago, Jesse Helms said he was going to follow her and "sing Dixie until she cries".
It's like Trump cracked open the Pandora's box of all the evils, and it's everywhere. It's quaint now to think there was a time Nixon resigned for Watergate.
this confused me as well. is she trying to say that there are people who're transgender just SAY they are because they want to see a few women washing their hands and putting on lipstick? or, in the worst case scenario, they go through what friends have told me is considerable hassle just to satisfy the same fantasy every more or less heterosexual fourteen-year-old boy has of being invisible in the girls' locker room?
jeez, the first time I was in Paris ('69). there were these large unisex public toilets and nobody gave a fuck.
It’s all become kabuki theater. Even legislation is performative. And cruelty is deliberate.
Allowing trans women to compete in women’s sports is complicated. Allowing a trans congresswoman in women’s bathrooms in the Capitol is not. She is a colleague and newcomer, she deserves kindness and accommodation, not hostility. This is going to be a very long four years.
a thought crossed my mind about why Nancy Mace is so concerned about guys finding out what she's doing in the bathroom and immediately flashed on one of those scenes that have become obligatory in most American popular entertainment during which a horny woman drags the nearest guy into one of the stalls, etc.this is an unworthy thought, I realize. but she's an unworthy...uhhh...congressperson.
You presume there will be elections in four years. Trump already told his followers that the election would be be the last one they would have to cast a vote. Believe him at his word.
We also need to keep reminding people that the federal government has less than bupkis to do with the actual administration of elections. The date is set by statute, and the rest is done by the states, right down to the count. He has been elected to his second term, and still doesn’t know, or care, how any of this stuff works. His ignorance is exceeded only by his unfounded sense of self-importance.
There's an interesting irony here. Mace objects to a transgender but flirty lesbians can roam just as gay men share lavs. Problem for Mace is she can't identify lesbians unless they identify themselves. But then I guess a transgender person would not be impressed with or attracted to Mace's features. Remember her Scarlet Letter shirt? She's just another attention chugger, like most of maga world.
That's ALL this is about...attention. Has Mace never been out of this country? Perhaps Europe? On an airplane? She and that other female goon remind me of gals who had locker room fights when I was in high school. We called them "poor white trash." They never change.
Tom's right that she's really looking for a Fox gig. The pay is better. The male exiles of the place have all been "handsy". And Fox is cemented into cable tv's top tier; you can't choose to dump them. They've done a lot of damage there because they're on the screen in nearly every kind of waiting area around town. But watch for a shift because now folks are more attentive to their phones than to the sick babies they may have in their arms. (Saw this at the doc's a couple of months ago.)
And if Nancy Mace attended a high school similar to mine, she would have learned a few lessons in the girls' lave, where what happens there stays there--or see you after school.
Oh Patty…we are simpatico on this one. That is the exact question to ask as a perfect response to Ms. Mace. Imagine if THAT was the question posed by anyone involved….like a Speaker not boxed by MAGAts. The issue would be over.
My ex-Repub sister told me a while back that Mace seemed like the future of R party. I begged to disagree. She is just as vile as chump and proudly so. Proof positive that brains can be destroyed by more than worms. You called it, worthless scum. God, I would hate to have to use any bathroom with her or MTG, or Boebert for that matter.
Fake outrage at a fake problem to get tabloid coverage…quelle surprise, mais oui? More kabuki theatrics from these GOP busybodies with nothing better to do with their time.
I recommend Parker Malloy’s latest about the manufactured outrage around trans people and how it was never more than performance. She’s terrified they’re going to strip away her healthcare and revoke her identity markers on her passport and other documents. https://www.readtpa.com/p/nancy-maces-anti-trans-crusade-exposes
My best friend’s child is trans an is at college in a blue state that’s connected to their home (also blue) state via other blue states. It terrifies me that people are actually having to start thinking like this.
So she was assaulted by a transgendered woman? Highly unlikely. And, yes, those are the offenders she needs to avoid, but she seems strangely drawn to them. I hope she's in therapy to figure out why.
Nancy Mace went to The Citadel for her higher education, and was the first woman to graduate from that university--a very hidebound military school in (surprise!) South Carolina. I'm sure she endured a great deal of hazing, bigotry, and possibly outright violence during her four years there. She could have grown past that and said she's going to be better than the people she went to school with. Obviously, she is either unwilling or incapable of doing that.
Sarah McBride basically rolled her eyes and said this wasn't her first rodeo in dealing with anti-trans hate, itself sad, but the fact she's holding her head up and not even giving the whiff of being a victim is exactly how to play it.
We had dinner with my wife’s Tulsa orthopedist brother just before the election. When asked about it, he thundered that he wouldn’t be voting for Trump. When she spoke with her very right wing Dallas cardiologist brother yesterday, he expressed the same horror we feel. That these guys, whose consciences begin and end with their bank accounts are alarmed is a positive sign.
It's a positive sign, but only if they do more than thunder. Go to LWV.org and sign the letter asking President Biden to instruct the Archivist to publish the ERA Amendment. It's easy to find. It's on the left-hand side as you scroll down the website. It takes only two minutes or less.

Good rant.
They are due another nasty one from me also.
Linda - so very well stated! Tom I will be right along side of you for those five minutes!
And yet, I just listened to a podcast where many Trump voters actually believed they were voting to save democracy.
There's no helping a fucking moron. 40% of Americans cannot read, comprehend and follow the instructions on a bottle of Aspirin. I'm sure among Trump voters, that's around 70-80%.

Yup.
I first noticed it in 1994 in Texas when Rove foisted W on the state. Boy, did that strategy take off…
Well...I can understand that when you consider that many of his voters were being manipulated via Xitter and right wing media organizations minute by minute on every kind of internet platform. Fear. And knowing little to nothing. Accepting lies as truth. And NO ANSWER from dems. Schumer is making a huge mistake now by being quiet about 47s picks IMO.
Can't wait for them to feel the pain along with the rest of us.
Yes. They believed the propaganda coming from calling the dems communists, socialists, fascists, etc. Not all, but many who voted for him have not been engaged with history or even anything in the news. Much 8f what they were seeing was on social media, Newsmax, Onan, Faux. Newsmax has been touting what a great cabinet he has nominated, better even than the Founders way back when.

AMEN. This is the Real Thing, no illusions......
They have to look for fights, because they have nothing else to offer and if they're not fighting in public people, including their constituents, will expect them to do the jobs they were elected to and none of them has any idea how to go about that.
.....and that is the point, right? Putin will approve and reward them with at least not burning them to death painfully slow for following his wishes.
Pretty much. There's a good primer for them in an old Allen Drury book, Come Nineveh, Come Tyre, about what happens when a Russian puppet wins the presidency. Amazingly prescient for a book that is now about 51 years old. (Editor's note, the age has been corrected)
"The bar is set so low, it's buried underground." So well said. Thanks.
Sarah McBride is a woman, period. When she enters a women’s restroom, she is not looking for someone to rape. She is looking to relieve herself. Mace is a publicity hound seeking to make a name for herself in trump world, nothing more. Performative cruelty.
These judgmental cretins should look up Janet Mock. A women who has been through it all and is more feminine that any of the arses blasting any who don’t share their weaponized idiocy
History apparently does circle around. I read when the first Black woman was elected to congress years ago, Jesse Helms said he was going to follow her and "sing Dixie until she cries".
Oh Jesse was my nc senator for an embarrassing time. What a self-righteous moron, now they have multiplied.
It's like Trump cracked open the Pandora's box of all the evils, and it's everywhere. It's quaint now to think there was a time Nixon resigned for Watergate.
Repubs have had a history of criminal behavior that beats any Dem record. No comparison. They are crooks, Nixon included…
All true, but there was a time it wasn't so nakedly in your face.
Yes, he's certainly a glitter sprayer, isn't he? And glitter is forever.
I think I am going to send Sarah McBride an email of support.
this confused me as well. is she trying to say that there are people who're transgender just SAY they are because they want to see a few women washing their hands and putting on lipstick? or, in the worst case scenario, they go through what friends have told me is considerable hassle just to satisfy the same fantasy every more or less heterosexual fourteen-year-old boy has of being invisible in the girls' locker room?

Wonder who died & made Nancy Mace "boss of the women's bathroom" (eye roll)
Excellent question, Cyndy, though I suspect it will go unanswered by those “in the know”.
a thought crossed my mind about why Nancy Mace is so concerned about guys finding out what she's doing in the bathroom and immediately flashed on one of those scenes that have become obligatory in most American popular entertainment during which a horny woman drags the nearest guy into one of the stalls, etc.this is an unworthy thought, I realize. but she's an unworthy...uhhh...congressperson.
Not like she doesn’t deserve it, indeed.
Sarah needs the overwhelming support of the constituents who elected her as their Representative and the support of ALL of us.
You presume there will be elections in four years. Trump already told his followers that the election would be be the last one they would have to cast a vote. Believe him at his word.
We have to keep planning for it till it's called off, then we have to organize around that.
We also need to keep reminding people that the federal government has less than bupkis to do with the actual administration of elections. The date is set by statute, and the rest is done by the states, right down to the count. He has been elected to his second term, and still doesn’t know, or care, how any of this stuff works. His ignorance is exceeded only by his unfounded sense of self-importance.
In other words, he’s not a f*cking king. Don’t treat him like one.

But then I guess a transgender person would not be impressed with or attracted to Mace's features. Remember her Scarlet Letter shirt? She's just another attention chugger, like most of maga world.
Here's a bit of irony - in 2021, Macd co-sponsored a bill to write protection for trans people into law - and got primaried for so doing in 2022.
That's ALL this is about...attention. Has Mace never been out of this country? Perhaps Europe? On an airplane? She and that other female goon remind me of gals who had locker room fights when I was in high school. We called them "poor white trash." They never change.
"Attention chugger." Another wonderful phrase. Thank you.

Does Nancy have a men's room and a women's room in her home?
Oh Patty…we are simpatico on this one. That is the exact question to ask as a perfect response to Ms. Mace. Imagine if THAT was the question posed by anyone involved….like a Speaker not boxed by MAGAts. The issue would be over.
Salud!

Exactly! (How are you holding up in FL?)
They’re trash. Just trash.

I follow Erin and literally forwarded those exact 2 articles to her. Thanks for sharing them here!
Mace has PTSD from a sexual assault? Well, she should be more worried about Trump, Gates, TV Pete, et al....
So she was assaulted by a transgendered woman? Highly unlikely. And, yes, those are the offenders she needs to avoid, but she seems strangely drawn to them. I hope she's in therapy to figure out why.
Nancy Mace went to The Citadel for her higher education, and was the first woman to graduate from that university--a very hidebound military school in (surprise!) South Carolina.

More spine than I have
Distraction, yeah, yeah, yeah.
So now we focus on restroom issues instead of cabinet picks?
Always the distraction, shiny crazy objects always grab the headlines

✔️ Done
What is this newly elected
representatives name?
SARAH. That's a FEMALE
name. However she
physically acquired it, seems
to be way too far beyond
these very dim bulbs that
comprise the MAGA GOP.
Let them go off the deep end. People obviously need to see how fucked up they are.
