Gay GOP group Log Cabin Republicans have sent an email out to supporters inviting them to attend a fundraising event in the run-up to the November election.
The gathering will take place on Sunday, September 29, in Nashville, Tennessee. The precise location will only be shared with ticket holders.
And the headline performer for the event to pull in those gay dollars?
Politics, but make it gay!

“World-famous music legend Kid Rock,” according to the email, “and other amazing musical guests.”
The organization says the MC for the evening will be “our friend and ally Kimberly Guilfoyle.”
Tickets start at $1,000 but rise quickly to $10,000 if you wish to attend the VIP reception and enjoy an acoustic performance and photo opportunity.
If you wish to be credited as a co-host, it will set you back a cool $50,000.
Anti-Bud Light
Kid Rock made headlines last year when he was among those to call for a boycott of Bud Light. The beer brand sent some customized beer cans to trans influencer Dylan Mulvaney, prompting MAGA outrage. Kid Rock posted a bizarre video in which he shot up cases of the beer. He followed it up with a statement saying, “”F*ck Bud Light, and f*ck Anheuser-Busch. Have a terrific day.”
Confusingly, the singer later told Sean Hannity that he never actually called for a boycott of the brand. His own bar in Nashville also continued to sell Bud Light.
Kimberly Guilfoyle, the partner of Donald Trump Jr. is a consistent supporter of former President Donald Trump. As such, she has railed against anything “woke”.
This includes gender-affirming care for minors and trans participation in women’s sports. Just over the weekend, she retweeted a post from Outspoken (an offshoot of the Log Cabin Republicans), claiming that the “Harris-Biden are doubling down on their efforts to destroy women’s sports.”
Some right-wing followers of Log Cabin Republicans and Guilfoyle expressed excitement over the fundraiser. Others were less keen.

“You can clap for that”
Many others wondered if Guilfoyle’s appearance would whip up similar enthusiasm to one she made on Saturday night. Guilfoyle was a guest at the Republican Party of Florida’s annual dinner. She gave a speech but was met with tepid applause. At one stage, delivering what she thought was one of her better lines, she resorted to encouraging people to clap for her.
Watch below.
Kim Guilfoyle gave an embarrassing speech at the Republican Party of FL annual dinner tonight where she was barely able to get 5 people to clap for her applause lines. This is towards the end where she is now begging people to clap for her. pic.twitter.com/d5pddI5YDv

I bet they paid her a cool $100K for this embarrassing "speech".

People are now openly tired of the Trump satellite grifters. Trump isn’t too far off from this either.

It doesn’t look like Kid Rock followed through on his vow to boycott Bud Light.

When last we heard from her, she came across as a shrieking banshee from Hell. I am sure people will pay good money to be screamed at.

She strips now. Gets those magas and proud boys in.

Please.
Mr. LaCivita and Ms. Wiles, both longtime Republican insiders, have forged close ties to important figures on the right, including Russell T. Vought, who directed the Office of Management and Budget in the Trump administration, and Charlie Kirk, the co-founder of Turning Point USA.

The Swamp. LOL
The heart of the Heritage Foundation-funded project, Mr. Dans said, was a database of roughly 20,000 party loyalists who were vetted and ready to fill positions in a Republican administration. “The focus was on draining the swamp,” he said.

Ahh, Kid Rock, who Nashville Scene magazine once called a “human pedal tavern.”

Log cabin republicans are embarrassing the LGBTQ community when they’re proudly announcing Kid Rock as their top headliner. Since Kid Rock is being paid loads of money by a bunch of gays to perform for them, does that make him woke? Should anti- gay conservatives start boycotting him.

He turns trix for them at the after parties. Talk about quality entertainment.
War On Free Speech
From these comments, I have concluded that liberals DO take the high road. 🙂

Just the name “War On Free Speech” makes a statement we all need to understand because in the past it was a War on Gay Speech. Some of us are old enough to remember when and how such censorship was used against us.
