				Trumps assault in the car
			 
			 
			
		
		
		so from the back of either a suburban or a limo that’s a half mile long, he lunged for the steering wheel?   
and the committee, because they’re really interested in the facts and not just in smearing Trump, relies on here say testimony from 
 someone who wasn’t there, and never bothered asking service agents who were in the car.
 
Then Liz Cheney hugged that witness.  Because there’s nothing suspicious when a juror ( who has a seething hatred for the defendant) hugs a prosecution witness in a fair trial. 
 
fortunately there’s video of what happened. hope you can see it, no idea if it works for you. 
 
Is the secret service driving him around in a smart car?

 tattling, really?  It was FUNNY, spence.  
 
When does becoming a liberal require one to forfeit their sense of humor?
 
Tattling.  You’re reduced to tattling.

		 just as all the experts said after this woman Testified under oath the Trump faithful would show up. With nonsense and a rabid defense of 1 issue that has no bearing on his attempt to overturn the election..  
 
she even stated she was told what happened  not she witnessed again under oath  
 
But Jim and the Hordes of trumps apologist   
 
Have hung their hats on un named sources  before someone with mr balls the most the men in Trumps cabinet. To put her hand up and testify under oath  
 
Then use the images of a women embracing another womens bravery  
 
And a FB video Lol  
 
As examples-of the hearings a a lie and rigged  using more false equivalences (shocking) comparing the public hearings to a trial . 
 
 
But are quite as church mice on all of the other information provided by life long Republicans MEN who worked for trump     
 
Misogyny. That’s the only answer  I can see

 Please specify, where are they banning saying gay?
 
All those monstrous things, and yet people are moving to red states, and yet polls show the GOP looking for a productive November.
 
It's almost as if, America isn't buying the BS you're selling.
 
If you have to lie to defend your beliefs, maybe it's time to question those beliefs.

 not what i asked. I asked you to support your statement that conservatives are banning “saying gay”.  either you made that up, or you can prove it’s happening.  which is it?

		 the force is strong in the GOP Sith Order  
 
this is just a republican primary in GA wait till the midterms and if the GOP fails to win Big OMG the election deniers will be out in force  
 
"I want y'all to know that I do not concede," Kandiss Taylor said in a video posted to social media. "I do not. And if the people who did this and cheated are watching, I do not concede." 
 
Kemp won Georgia's primary with about 74% of the vote. Perdue, who had the backing of former President Donald Trump, earned about 22% of the vote. 
 
And Taylor? Just 3.4%. 
 
 
 
Election deniers have taken their fraud theories on tour — to nearly every state 
 
 
Taylor is a fringe, far-right figure in Georgia with a history of making false claims about the 2020 election, voting machines and how elections are run. In the days following her defeat, Taylor has asked followers to sign affidavits stating they voted for her to prove she won the election — despite no evidence the vote totals are incorrect and with the deadline to challenge an election already passed.

All those monstrous things, and yet people are moving to red states, and yet polls show the GOP looking for a productive November. 
 
It's almost as if, America isn't buying the BS you're selling. 
 
If you have to lie to defend your beliefs, maybe it's time to question those beliefs.

		 The Leon County school board in FL voted that if an LGBTQ child is in a P.E. class or attending an overnight trip that ALL the parents in their class will receive a notification about it, which essentially paints these children as sex offenders that require warnings.

		 No, I didn’t  
 
The primary changes the Board made before voting were regarding restroom and locker room usage and when parents should be notified if and when a transgender student may require/request accommodations. 
 
Wood’s primary concern was the possibility of outing a student who was not ready to discuss their identity with classmates or parents. However, she feels the amendments allow students to control what information is shared while ensuring parents are a part of any action the district takes. For instance, if a child wants to change their name in school, they must have permission from their parent.  
 
Ultimately, the changes to the Inclusive guide were to provide any student who requests special private accommodations for locker room or restroom use according to their gender identity must have a plan completed with their parents’ participation. 
 
However, if a student is open about their gender identity and wishes to use the corresponding locker room, the parents of all students using the locker rooms will be notified and given reasonable accommodations for their students. To protect the transgender student’s privacy, notifications to parents will be general and not solely issued to one particular class. 
 
Lastly, a change was made by the Board for overnight field trips, requiring parents to sign a form requesting their child have special accommodations.

		 Again, you read it wrong. The parents of the transgender youth are notified as to if their child needs special accommodations, not all the parents of all the kids going on the field trip. Other parents of children can also request special accommodations for their child if they want. There is no blanket notice sent out to all the parents that there’s an LGBTQ student going on the trip

		 I think they’re referring to the parents of the LGBTQ students, they will be apprised of the options available to them. If you read the example they provide, that’s who they are referring to 
 
And that has nothing to do with field trips.

		 That would not be the parents of all students.
