He was only put in place for one thing. To use the law to hurt anyone that the republicans or “Christians” hate. That’s it and nothing else. It doesn’t matter what he does outside of that.

unfortunately this is all Completely Normal Republican Shit, by which I mean there’s plausible deniability w/r/t corruption for all of it. is there a pattern? sure, but you can’t use that in any attempt for accountability.

But isn’t hypocrisy the current foundation of our politics? Say something on the campaign trail to get elected and then vote otherwise. Run as a Demoocrat and get elected and then change parties? Say you want to protect children and then vote to lower the legal age to work, or get married...  There are no ethics, no…

“And even when we call them out, they think they can get away with it.”

They don’t “think” they can get away with it. They HAVE gotten, DID get, and WILL CONTINUE to get away with it. Because that’s how the system is set up to work. Believe it or not, the whole government was set up by a bunch of rich white men, and the entire system was built to keep rich white men in power. So far, so…

It’s funny, not the HaHa-kind..., that the first and loudest to scream "Won't someone think of the children!?" are typically the ones thinking a bit too much about the children.

I think that if all Democratic candidates can manage not to expose their sex organs in public until after the next election there will be a voter landslide such as has never been seen. Keep it up you Republican bigots and haters. You keep making it easier and easier to not consider you fit for any position ever.

I never know how sincere they are in their wildly erroneous stated beliefs about LGBTQ+ folks preying on kids, but I'm becoming increasingly convinced that their only objection to the idea is that they don't want the competition. 

Are “consensual conversations” even a thing? Who consents to hearing creepy ass fantasies from somebody they are supposed to be working (in this case interning) with? Did he actually say, “I have this creepy-ass fantasy about you and your roommate, wanna hear it?” No? Then I would rule that “consensual conversations”…

Impregnating them is a-okay, though.

I’ll bet this lady also thinks that talking about gender identity and same sex attraction is sexualizing children.

What even does this mean?

The article sort of glossed over the larger context about what the Ohio legislature is trying to do, so here’s the full info, because it makes this crazy lady’s raving all the more terrifying:

These are the same people who scream about protecting kids from groomers, but a 10-year-old is considered a woman to them.

Hey Laura!

Also, abortion is natural. About half of the blastocysts that reach the uterus after conception fail to implant (relevant if you go in for that “life begins at conception” stuff), and yet 50-75% of those that do implant end in miscarriage before the woman even knows she's pregnant. THEN, of the 25-50% of…

“A child’s body is “not designed to have disgusting death instruments remove her pre-born child from her womb,” she said, claiming this “is a statistical fact.”-“

Man, I always thought the main reason I shouldn’t get into politics is too much weed and no college degree...the pro-life lunatics however have taught me that I wouldn’t be able to do my job without screaming obscenities at these fuckin clowns in hearings like this. “Ma’am did you just try to tell me with a straight…

For folks who purport to want to ‘protect children’, they play pretty fast and loose with the definition. Not that I expect anything less of them.

Yes, a woman’s body is meant to carry life. A WOMAN’S BODY. A 10-year-old is not a woman, you miserable piece of shit. Fuck you, Streitmann.
