Republicans are literally the dumbest humans to ever walk the earth.

    1. This is one of those bills they introduce that everyone HAS to pass, that they then attach riders of things they know will never pass.

      They’re just trying to obfuscate their obvious immorality, with the facade of being virtuous.

      Solving non-existent problems just so they can point to them and say, see Democrats wouldn’t do that for you but I did….

    4. #It’s an anti-trans bill:

      > b) Prohibiting funding for sexually oriented material.—

      > “(1) IN GENERAL.—No funds under this Act may be used to develop, implement, facilitate, host, or promote any program or activity for, or to provide or promote literature or other materials to, children under the age of 18 that includes sexually oriented material, including any program, activity, literature, or material that exposes such children to nude adults, individuals who are stripping, or lewd or lascivious dancing.

      # Here’s the kicker:

      > (3) DEFINITIONS.—In this subsection:

      > (C) SEXUALLY ORIENTED MATERIAL.—The term ‘sexually oriented material’ means material that—

      > “(ii) **involves gender dysphoria or transgenderism.**”

      Same schools that do sex changes on your child while they’re at school.

    6. Did she think this up on her own, or did she need a committee of evangelical soccer moms to help her? Solution to a non-existing problem.

      Yall its an anti trans bill. She knows this but obviously cannot say it. They aren’t dumb, they’re evil. If you look at this and just write them off as being dumb, they’re winning. Stay informed

      She is both an asshole & a moron.

      Interestingly, her dipshit filled base will see this and create pathetic stories like…

       “my sister’s ex-boyfriend’s mother’s second cousin said she heard from a former friend of a friend that a Trans stripper performed an anal bead strip show in her 2nd graders class.”

    9. Its a misdirection. They say “No strippers in school” which everyone agrees with, but what the law actually bans trans teachers from being hired or guest speakers/presenters being hired if they are trans.

      While most drag queens aren’t actually trans it will also probably ban them from drag story hour as well.

      It’s so they can point at whatever they want and claim it’s strippers in schools. It’s asinine, but it’s to set legal precedent for *something*. Probably to shame women out of teaching for saying their clothing is “pornographic” or something.

      They don’t want any women doing *any* paid labor. This might be the justification to remove teachers they think are too empathetic

    11. Sometimes you have to make up jobs for yourself to look busy and hope that your boss isn’t as dumb as you are.

    12. When you can’t govern and have no interest in improving people’s lives, you make up problems that don’t exist to “solve.”

      That’s why red states have the worst statistics in the country.

      My thoughts are they’re going to weaponize it to demonize trans and gay people

    14. InterstellarReddit on

      This tweet is misleading because it frames the bill like it’s only about banning “strippers in schools,” which makes it sound absurd.

      But the bill goes much further: it says federal education funds cannot be used “to provide or promote literature or other materials to, children under the age of 18 that includes sexually oriented material.”

      Then it defines “sexually oriented material” to include not only material involving “individuals who are stripping,” but also material that “involves gender dysphoria or transgenderism.”

      It’s not about performances. It is also aimed at books, curriculum, and other school materials involving trans topics.

      Reducing the bill to “strippers in schools” hides its broader scope and makes people miss what it actually does so that it goes through.

      Remember politicians dont read into things either, so they’ll see this and let it go because they don’t think it’s a big deal and then it passes. Trojan horse bill.

      I’m a constituent of hers. She only cares about solving imaginary problems and huffing Trump’s farts.

    16. StirFriedRubber on

      All this shit has made me as an American born Irishman very tired. Lock them up.

    17. First they came for the LGBQT+ community and Republican Voters did not speak up for they were not LGBQT+.

      I wonder when there will be no one left to speak up for the Republican Voters?

      People can’t afford groceries and this is the shit Republicans do while stealing every dime they can get their hands on

    19. No-Target-2470 on

      You can call it stupid but this strategy works. The goal is to distract from the fact they’re not doing ANYTHING for everyday people, all they do is grift, scam and take bribes for screwing up regulation that prevents corporations from grifting, criming and hurting people.

      Yeah, they’re going to lose come midterms and the next election but it’s this strategy that got them the opportunity to take power, and it’s the strategy that will give them the opportunity to take power again in 6-8 years.

      Until the American people stop falling for it, they’ll keep making things worse and worse each time they use it to get power until they manage to make it so they can’t lose power.

      Actually, this is an intriguing concept. Walk with me.

      A stripper is someone who removes their clothing while others watch for the purpose of entertainment.

      From [Wikipedia](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Performance?wprov=sfti1#): _A performance is an act or process of staging or presenting a play, concert, or other forms of entertainment. It is also defined as the action or process of carrying out or accomplishing an action, task, or function._

      Melania Trump is a former model who posed [nude](https://letmegooglethat.com/).

      By that logic, First Lady Melania Trump would not be allowed to appear in schools.

      I don’t understand how they got to adulthood with this kind of logic and reasoning skills.

    22. Bartender9719 on

      They just want to ban “adult performers” and group drag queens into that designation. It’s dumb, because drag story hours are harmless, but that’s their motivation.
