Someone in the house needs to put forth a bill that can be signed into law on this or we'll be back and forth with EO's and agency bs the next time a D is elected..

Fix this shit with laws, stop letting it be a political football...

That was my thought as well.
Like Presidential pardon's, EO's are just too easy for presidents to enact and sign-off on.

We the People... need to do our part to make that happen.

It's a team effort.

I am having this discussion with those I know to not simply sit back as a spectator for the next four years, but push people to involved in bringing legislation forward on these issues, and to make sure heavy turnout for midterms, get rid of the any that are weak, RINO, or anti-Trump, etc., as well as replacing any Democrats where possible.


Fight! Fight! Fight!
Vote! Vote! Vote!

We certainly can't let the GDC's take back The Hill.

How Trump’s executive order on gender identity could impact the Quad Cities

By Haley Ryan

Published: Jan. 24, 2025 at 7:10 PM CST|Updated: 20 minutes ago

QUAD CITIES, Iowa/Ill. (KWQC) -Since President Donald Trump signed an executive order that only recognize two sexes, a local reverend said said the LGBTQ+ community has been scared, angry and hopeless.

Rev. Rich Hendricks said he worries about suicide rates.

“We know that whenever the government legislates against a group of people, the rate of suicide among that group of people goes way up,” Hendricks said...

I just don't understand why the homos and lesbians want to associate themselves with the trans lunatics. If you're a homo, it means as a male, you prefer sexual activity with males; if you're a lesbian it means you're a female who prefers sexual activity with females. But, if you're a tranny, you PRETEND to be something you're not, AND you demand everyone else pretend with you. You can take drugs and have parts cut off, but your DNA will always be male or female regardless of what you do.

I believe homos and lesbians suffer from psychological issues, but the trannys are exponentially more screwed up in the head. Why do the homos and lesbians want to associate themselves with such lunatics?

I always refer to trannys as "Klingers," and laugh.

I guess the good reverend has some work to do.

Interesting how those groups resort to suicide if they cannot get their way. Definitely serious mental issues at play there.

And how is this a bad thing?

Target drops DEI programs….

Today they were disinvited from the annual Minneapolis Gay Pride parade. Target HQ is here, this is a pretty big deal.

‘The breaking point’: Twin Cities Pride ousts Target from annual parade, festival

Twin Cities Pride has decided to exclude Target from its annual festival and parade after the retailer’s decision to scale back diversity initiatives.

For years, Target has been a visible — and generous — supporter of Pride events in Minneapolis and around the country, donating between $50,000 and $70,000 each year to Twin Cities Pride, Executive Director Andi Otto said. Target was expected to be a sponsor again this year.
But in a Sunday interview, Otto called the company’s decision to curtail diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) programming “the breaking point” that pushed festival organizers to temporarily cut ties with the Minneapolis-based corporation.

^^^^

Oh, oh woe, oh woe is I. They won't be able to prance with their tali-whackers hangin' out. The End is near!

On the West Coast, tech has had a large presence during these parades. From employees showing up on the company's behalf marching en mass, to sponsoring various events and helping to underwrite the parade costs themselves. With Mark & Jeff attending the inauguration and taking their Haj to Mar-A-Lago, I'm thinking the tech presence is going to be much smaller at Seattle & San Francisco's parades.

If I don’t get my way I’ll hold my breath!

According to a 2023 Gallup survey, 7.6% of US adults identify as LGBTQ. This is up from 5.6% in 2020 and 3.5% in 2012.

Yet, for some reason the seem to be 50+ percent of everyone's focus.

They scream for Democracy.

Fine, Democracy means majority rule. They/them/it/whatever is a super minority so by Democratic rule they can be quiet.

Oddly enough I don’t see that as a problem

I follow Rob Smith on X and he is stating that there is a growing group of gays and lesbians that are distancing themselves from the LGBTQ+ groups. The breaking point seems to be the trans policies, grooming, and gender changes of children. they are not on board with these things.

Not unless his real name is Mat Staver. He (Pavilion) should learn how to use the quote formatting feature of this forum.

What do you think? Quick to criticize as you did before. But I guess that’s what people do best on social media.

Farewell.

URGENT – Kim Davis Hearing TOMORROW!
Jan 29, 2025
https://lc.org/newsroom/detail...vis-hearing-tomorrow

TOMORROW, Mat Staver will deliver oral arguments to a three-judge panel at the Sixth Circuit Court of Appeals defending Kim Davis — the rural Kentucky clerk under siege by LGBTQ activists who want to take her house and everything she owns.

Ultimately, these judges will decide if Kim can be personally sued into bankruptcy damages, alleging “hurt feelings” for exercising her First Amendment RIGHT. After stripping Kim of her governmental immunity, Dave Ermold and David Moore sued Kim in her personal capacity seeking damages for emotional distress based solely on their alleged “hurt feelings.” In this case, the First Amendment is an absolute defense.

This critical issue is now before the Court of Appeals. And this case will likely go up to the U.S. Supreme Court. We need your prayers and immediate support.

David Ermold and his “partner,” David Moore, told GQ magazine that they had never even discussed marriage when a social media post informed them that Kim Davis had stopped issuing ALL marriage licenses as she awaited clarification of her religious accommodation rights.

The two men raced to Kim’s office, cellphone cameras in hand, determined to humiliate Kim and post those demeaning videos on social media. The men could have gotten a marriage license at any one of the several nearby offices that were issuing licenses. But that wasn’t good enough for the two Davids. They wanted to force KIM to violate her religious principles by signing HER name on the certificate.

The two Davids continued visiting Kim’s office, filming themselves harassing her and posting the videos online. Their posts went viral, and the two men even landed TWO spreads in GQ magazine.

Kim spent six days in prison for demanding her religious freedom rights. She not only eventually prevailed in winning back those rights for herself, she also won religious freedom rights for ALL Kentucky officials.

Still stuck on humiliation and revenge, David Ermold then tried to take away Kim’s job by running against her in the next county clerk election. But the good people of Rowan County handily voted Ermold down. He never even made it out of the primary race.

It’s been 10 years since the two Davids sought fame through the humiliation of a quiet Christian woman. Now they are back, and they want to take Kim’s house and everything this humble civic servant ever owned.

David Ermold SUED Kim for daring to use her legal right under the First Amendment. Kim now faces a judgment of 100,000 dollars to the two Davids for “hurt feelings,” plus 260,000 dollars tacked on for attorney’s fees and costs. If we do not win this appeal, Kim could lose her home and property ... all because two LGBTQ men don’t believe Christians should receive religious accommodation rights.

“I hate that word accommodation,” Ermold told reporters.

Don’t let the LGBTQ END religious freedom rights!

But this case has even broader implications beyond the preservation of religious freedom. In response to our request to review a different aspect of this case in 2020, Supreme Court Justices Clarence Thomas and Samuel Alito said: “This petition implicates important questions about the scope of our decision in Obergefell.”

“Since Obergefell,” Justice Thomas continued, “parties have continually attempted to label people of good will as bigots merely for refusing to alter their religious beliefs in the wake of prevailing orthodoxy.”

We intend to take Kim’s case back to the Supreme Court to (1) win the right to religious freedom, and (2) overturn Obergefell.

Help us defend every American’s RIGHT to religious freedom. Help us overturn Obergefell. If we allow even one person’s religious liberty to be stolen, then ALL our freedom is at risk. Please, give generously today, and a special Challenge Grant will DOUBLE the impact of your gift.
