PROTECT BLACK WOMEN!
PROTECT THOSE IN THE LGBTQ+ COMMUNITY🏳️🌈!
WEAR A DAMN MASK! SAVE A LIFE!
HOLD THEM ACCOUNTABLE NOW!
GOOGLE'S BLOGGER IS TRASH!
WHITE PRIVILEGE IS REAL!
YOU CAN'T FIX STUPID!
The remnants of the old South still exist in the U.S. Congress and it's apparent that folks are still more concerned about being in your child's business instead of just minding their own.
Freshman lawmaker Rep. Marie Newman (D-IL) is feuding with fellow freshman, Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) over the Equality Act, a bill that outlaws discrimination against those who identify as transgender. Greene, a white nationalist who supports former president Donald J. Trump and the Q'Anon conspiracies has been very vocal these last two months.
Newman has a transgender daughter and is very proud of her. Newman supports the rights of those in the LGBTQ+ community.
Newman puts a trans rights flag in front of her office and it riles up Marjorie Taylor Greene. |
"The right time to pass this act was decades ago. The second best time is right now," Newman said. "I'm voting yes on the Equality Act for Evie Newman, my daughter and the strongest, bravest person I know."
The lawmaker wanted to show solidary to the community by holding the transgender rights flag outside her Capitol Hill office. She shared it on social media and went viral.
Well it appears she put the flag in front of Taylor Greene's office.
Our neighbor, @RepMTG, tried to block the Equality Act because she believes prohibiting discrimination against trans Americans is “disgusting, immoral, and evil.”

Thought we’d put up our Transgender flag so she can look at it every time she opens her door 😉🏳️⚧️ pic.twitter.com/dV8FatQFnx
Only three hours later, Taylor Greene, recently stripped of her committee assignments found time to buy a poster where she hung outside her office saying "There are TWO genders: Male & Female - Trust The Science!"
The lawmaker is a fucking white nationalist. She so concerned about transwomen being in restrooms and playing in women's sports.
"As mothers, we all love and support our children. But your biological son does NOT belong in my daughters' bathrooms, locker rooms and sports team."
Then she used her GOD to hate.
Our neighbor, @RepMarieNewman, wants to pass the so-called "Equality" Act to destroy women’s rights and religious freedoms.

The woman also posted on social media with her staffers "Stand with MTG".
She claims she's being cancelled because of her conspiracy theories, racism, adultery and utter stupidity.
This is what your Congress is doing! Both freshman lawmakers are feuding over human rights. |
Yet, she's trying to cancel a transgender child's right to exist.
This country is so fucking divided by the drivel of the extremists. It's bad! Republicans believe that Donald J. Trump won the election and it was unfairly stolen despite evidence proving it wasn't
Republicans and especially far-right agitators like Sean "Screwball" Hannity believe President Joe Biden has cognitive disorder despite not being doctors. The far-right agitators believe Vice President Kamala Harris is a "socialist" waiting in the wings and some Black conservative extremists believe she isn't authentically Black.
Only in the Congress less than two months Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene has attracted controversy. She along with fellow freshman lawmakers, Rep. Burgess Owens (R-UT), Rep. Madison Cawthorn (R-NC), Rep. Beth Van Duyne (R-TX) and Rep. Laura Boebert (R-CO) have become more distractions instead of solutions.
The Republicans continue to back Trump. The few that oppose him are being censured, threatened with primary challengers and death threats.
Trump is expected to speak at CPAC in Florida on Sunday. They want to stay hand and hand with a washed up politician who lost in a landslide.
Again, the Republicans want us to be still focused on Monica Lewinsky, 9/11, Benghazi, Hillary Clinton's emails, socialism, Somali pirates, New Black Panthers, Obamacare, Barack Obama's birth certificate, Hunter Biden's laptop, Rush Limbaugh, allegations of voter fraud and radial Islam.
Republicans want us to forget about the Supreme Court handing George W. Bush the election victory, Bush ignoring the warnings leading to 9/11, the Wars in Afghanistan and Iraq, Hurricane Katrina, Hurricane Rita, the Great Recession, denying Merrick Garland a seat on the Supreme Court, the coronavirus pandemic, the unemployment rising under Donald J. Trump, Hurricane Maria, the Mexican government paying for the border wall, the golf outings, the thousands of lives lost to the coronavirus, the Russian government meddling in our elections and the insurrection.
This is the shameless crap that makes the Republican Party in the words of Rep. Liz Cheney, the "party of white supremacy." Yes, the Republicans may have a handful of people of color elected to office, but the party is 95% WHITE and 5% NON-WHITE.
The Republican Party isn't conservative. They are the party of ____________________.
Fill in the blank.
Transgender rights are human rights. Your transgender son or transgender daughter deserve the right to have education, housing, an opportunity to change the world and a place at the table. The country can't be saying "We the People..." when we ain't including people.
I am a proud supporter of the LGBTQ+ community. I have family and friends who identify as gay and transgender.
I am supportive of them 100%.
PROTECT BLACK WOMEN is not just for our Black women.... it includes Black transwomen.
