GOP homophobia

Virginia's 5th congressional district-- 21 counties plus the blue cities of Charlottesville and Danville-- has a PVI of R+6... a tough race for Democrats, but not impossible, especially not in an anti-red wave cycle. Trump won the district in 2016, 53.4% to 42.3%.

The other day we were looking at very consistent Trump's track record for always hiring the worst people for any given job-- which helps explain why his regime is such a dysfunctional, failed mess.

More hog than human, Trumpist Pamela Taylor is being led away to a penI think everyone-- other than die-hard members of the Trump base-- can agree that Pamela Taylor is the worst piece of dog shit passing herself off as a human being. This woman defines "garbage" who should never have been born. You don't remember the name?

Should congressmen who get high and play dress-up be barred from buying homes in Orange Co?I can remember when I was a kid growing up on Long Island, there were fights in the suburbs-- Nassau County-- about selling houses to black families. Half the people who lived in some of these towns were there because of "white flight" and they brought their ugly bigotry and racism with them.

Republican Troy King is running for Alabama Attorney General again. Why would any DWT, outside of Alabamians, care? There's an interesting story there-- although none of the media outlets covering his announcement has mentioned it.

-by NoahThe Judge Roy Moore case isn't the first case of a Christian Extremist being caught, figuratively and/or literally with his pants down and his hypocrisy showing. I'm reminded of former #1 TV preacher Jimmy Swaggart of The Assemblies Of God who was defrocked after his first scandal with a prostitute. That was in the 1980s.

-by Melody SieglerOne of my best friends in graduate school was Jack. He was a serious scientist-- an accomplished scientist-- way more accomplished in his field than most graduate students of our cadre in Biology. Also, he was amazingly expert in old music, old 45s. And, who knows what else. He related well to everyone in the Department. And, he was always wonderful company.Jack had a health problem-- he had been born with various defective heart valves. But, by some miracle, these defects compensated for each other.

Even he's laughing at the idiotsPerhaps you read something about Trump being forced to fire his National Security Advisor after just a few weeks on the job, when he was exposed for taking cash from Putin and illicitly conniving with him even before Trump was sworn in. Many people find that rather important.
