Meet Linda Paulson. She’s a Salt Lake City grandmother who just announced that she’ll be on the ballot for Utah State Senate… in a rap video.
The video was actually posted to Paulson’s YouTube channel earlier this month but didn’t get much attention until local media in Utah noticed it over the weekend.

In it, Paulson rhymes her way through her political values, which include things like loving God, opposing abortion, being “pro-religious freedom” and “pro-police”, and supporting “traditional family” among other extreme right-wing beliefs.
How about we take this to the next level?
Our newsletter is like a refreshing cocktail (or mocktail) of LGBTQ+ entertainment and pop culture, served up with a side of eye-candy.
“And just to clarify, as a female adult, I know what a woman is,” she raps.
According to her campaign website, Paulson, who graduated with a degree in “Family Life” from anti-LGBTQ Brigham Young University in 2007, opposes student athletes competing on teams that match their gender identity and wants to ban teachers from talking about LGBTQ issues in the classroom because she considers it “pornography.”
So far, she doesn’t appear to have racked up any meaningful endorsements and, according to her campaign’s most recent Received Contributions Report filed with the state, she has accepted a total of $4,190.33 in donations. This is in addition to $5,000 she donated herself earlier this year.

Utah’s general election will take place on November 8. Paulson is running against incumbent State Senator Karen Mayne, whose campaign has received nearly $50,000 in donations. Mayne was first elected in 2009 and has been Senate minority leader since 2019.
Now, some tweets…
Sold my Diplo tickets. Going to the Linda Paulson rap show instead.

My husband works in the media and always says most people shouldn’t do their own commercials. This is why.

Allow me to introduce you to Linda Paulson, candidate for Utah Senate.
We’ve reached the point where old white women rap about political policies harmful to Black Americans.

My name is Linda Paulson and I’m here to say
We should roll back civil rights in a major way— Jingalls (@Jinga11s) September 17, 2022
And she uses that last line to be transphobic. Bless her heart.

Tallskin
And talking of gay hating, Gay bashing trans activists attacked LGB elder 75 year old Fred Sargeant yesterday. He is awaiting the results from CAT scans. The tranzies repeatedly smacked him on the back of the head, then pushed him to the ground.
Fred’s crime was he had a placard at the Pride march (he helped found) saying “Gay Not Queer”. He believes the use of ‘queer’ obscures worrying attitudes to child safeguarding. Trans activists on that pride march were handing stickers which said: “If you don’t stand for trans rights, you won’t be standing much longer.”
Yesterday they attacked women in Brighton, UK, with smoke canisters.
Why do trans and their fans consider violence is justified to silence feminist women and gays and lesbians who speak out against gender woo-woo and their lies about gay stonewall history?
How much longer will you silly gays in the US put up with this shlt before you all start to push back?
dbmcvey
So, you’re not gay. Do you have a link for any of that? And I mean from a real news source, not from some anti-trans one.
Tallskin
Oh you say I am not gay? Do you have some exotic device that can detect whether or not someone is gay from their comments on a shit site like Queerty?
No, of course you don’t have such a device. Even if such a device existed, no-one with any moral sense would sell one to a dumb shlt like you.
Do your own fvcking research you reeking tvrd. Google: Fred Sargeant attack
ZzBomb
No link to any legit new source and googling what you said to google leads to nothing valid.
Fake news
James
Get lost you anti trans creep.
barryaksarben
oh tall skin you are so silly. we non-silly gays are smart enough not to fall for ridiculous insane and incredibly made up stories to attack trans and gay people. STFU and go away. I will always support my trans men and women against irrational hatred from you morons. No they are not grooming no more than gay men are since we all kn ow for a real fact that the vast majority of pesos are straight white men
Eternal.Cowboy
Because you can’t make this kind of thing up. I googled “Fred Sargeant attack” and the first article is about Fred Sargent saying the fatal shooting of a trans person was “a good thing”.
Errrr….. tell us again is who is violent?
Google brought up nothing about the attack you are claiming happened. So it would appear you have remained consistent with making things up.
jt1990
@Tallskin well I came here to ask some sensible questions also but I see you beat me to it! I would also like to ask how is “knowing what a woman is” the same as “hating gays?” This lady is no more hateful than my late Grandmother, who would flip the mattress of the guest room before the gay relatives arrived to spend the night. It was done quietly and not in a harassing nor violent manner. Left wing haters could learn from these fine ladies!
dbmcvey
Hey Tallksin, you said “you silly gays” so are you saying you are gay?
I did Google and came up with nothing. You’re the one spreading this so why don’t you post the source.
dbmcvey
Oh, Tallskin and Jt990 are the same person! That makes sense.
Neoprene
“…gender woo-woo…” LOL!
Mister P
These right wing extremists have to hype up the lie that men are competing in women’s sports, because they don’t have any solutions to real problems. Transwomen competing in sports is made out to be a huge problem when it is not a problem at all.
Clearly if she thinks talking about LGBTQ+ issues in a classroom is pornography then obviously she wouldn’t no pornography if it bit her in the ass.
miller2900
Mister P, while I may not know any of Trans life at the moment (let alone anyone involved in sports period), I’m sure I’ve viewed pornography a “time or two” in my life time so your closing comment made my day!
Bengali
Far right only has a problem when trans athletes win. Just like when far right loses elections.
Tallskin
Mister P. You silly tranzie. Most of us in the UK who object to adult men competing against real women are left wing, not right wing. Yes some right wingers find the whole notion of bulked up, testosterone enhanced blokes racing/rowing/swimming/running/fighting against real women as absurd as we socialists do. It’s not clever to pit men in dresses against weaker, smaller women and when these men win, whoop for joy. It just reveals what a pile of utter shlt gender trans woo-woo is.
But you stick to your dumbarse yank cult belief in gender woo-woo if you want, we’ll stick to science and reality

Is the reality of the failed economy working for y’all?

Well, at least she gets points for rhyming “Paulson” with “awesome”….

Yeah, false rhymes are the best!

Paulson rhymes with “Tall skin”…hmm….

I’m from Utah and only hate it here when the religislature is in session. So Mormon and backwards. Even so, I don’t think this nut job will get very far.

I was born there but left decades ago. It doesn’t seem to have gotten any better.

She’s vile. I hope a giant cross falls on her.
tjack47
Speaking of gaydar…I’m detecting she’s enjoyed cunilingus on rare occasions. Nothing wrong with that. I’ve partaken in my self-loathing days.
Kangol2
She’s pretty butch, to put it kindly.
Just.my.opinion
I still believe, quite firmly, that everyone wishing to run for any public office must first pass a very thorough psychiatric evaluation.
Mister P
Calling us “silly gays” and calling me a tranzie proves you are a troll.

We haven’t heard much from out former friend of many handles. I wonder if this is another one his “new ” handles. Idiotic as he was sounds about like the bullshit tallskin puts out.

She is a later filled loser.

This is Utah after all. so what do you expect form these cultists who say anyone who’re not devout mormons are condemmned to hell or something like this. The sad thing, these idiots give Christianity a bad name. The mormon church is about as Christian ad a doorknob and is a cult, pure and simple. It isn’t a Christian Church ( although they call themselves the church of Jesus Christ of latter day saints) as it didn’t evolve as a result of the Protestant Reformation of trhe 1500’s
