And…………………….this.
Forget today’s earlier news that the lewd Lauren Boebert was invited to speak at the GOP’s Texas Youth Summit, even after her live crotch-grabbing performance in the audience of a kid-friendly play. The “devout Christian” has since been quietly booted from the MAGA lineup, according to MTN.
“The Texas Youth Summit quietly removed Lauren Boebert from the lineup and deleted all their social media posts announcing the addition. A Google site search revealed Boebert’s name has been scrubbed from the entire Texas Youth Summit webpage,” reports MTN.
So far no explanation has been given for the sudden rejection of the heat packin’ rod grabbin’ Congressquack from Colorado. But in this case, no explanation is needed.

…The young republicans. Dumb as nails except in this case, I suppose.

Wow. Some on the right might have a moment of clarity. I’m pleasantly shocked. Let’s hope this mindset spreads dramatically.

What a lowlife Boebert is. Given what vile, ignorant, hate and greed driven lowlifes all Texas conservatives are, it’s surprising that they’d kick her out of the lineup.They adored pizza grabbing Donnie.

Congressquak! Like it. This is a term I will use to describe the idiots of the Republican party congress people. Need to come up with one for Donald Trump – who may become the president again.
What was she going to tell the youths? Maybe the girls how to grab the guys’ rods in public?
abfab
Oh, brother. Ya gotta see the Texas Youth Summit website. Please grab and secure your vomit bag prior to opening. Here’s a quick peak, but believe me………it gets better.
Our Mission.
“The mission of the Texas Youth Summit is to identify, educate, and train students to promote principles of fiscal responsibility, free market, limited government, American Exceptionalism, and the Judeo-Christian principles this country was founded upon.”

Oh, some kind of false narrative and indoctrination….something they don’t recognize that they’re doing; all the while blaming everyone else who disagrees with them of the same thing. Zombies pass them by looking for brains.
DeeAnnCA
Somehow that doesn’t square with Personal Responsibility…
Fname Optional Lname
What exactly is “American Exceptionalism” ?
I think all gay/bi/trans/+ are exceptional.
abfab
What exactly is ”principles”? Isn’t it rich…the old, tired republicans talking and teaching ”principles”. Funny.
Man About Town
Yeesh…I hope Lourdes Leon’s voice sounds better than it does in this clip.
JTinToronto
Give it up Lourdes. You can’t sing. Was the autotune computer not working? God awful noise.
abfab
Thank you for the warning.

Lourdes Leon = hysterical.

Magic Johnson is a great father!
Fname Optional Lname
Indeed! He is a class act and does it all with such dignity. Nothing but love for that man and the support he has promoted over the past few decades!

Magic Johnson gave a little talk at a naming ceremony this past week, and he said that when he first received his HIV positive diagnosis — must be 30 years + — the doctors told him to take his medicine, eat right and stay in good physical shape. He says he did it, and here he is, He and his son EJ are so lucky to have each other too.

A. Elizabeth Taylor and Magic Johnson are two of the heavyweights in the fight to end AIDS. I have nothing but gratitude for their courage and enduring dedication to the cause.
B. You mean the K-Pop bands are believed to be straight???
C. Message to Pose star Angelica Ross: just because things on a Hollywood set don’t go 100% your way 24/7, it doesn’t make them “anti-LGBTQ+”, sweetie.
D. Infecting the entire White House with COVID is apparently a small price to pay to avoid smearing the twice impeached, four-times indicted, ex-president’s orange makeup with a mask.
E. I’m kinda in reclusive fitness guru Richard Simmon’s camp: it’s hard to enjoy life if you’ve got to forego all privacy, and be subjected to the surgical lighting of a NETFLIX biopic.
F. Bryan Johnson/Blueprint’s examination of longevity on IG is fascinating. It’s about a lot more than having the d*ck of an 18y/o. Anyone hoping to forestall the aging process should check it out.
G. Leave Lourdes aLone!!!

C. Truth, sweetie darling.
