State theocracy from the governor of Kentucky:

#BringYourBible to School Day is THIS Thursday, Oct. 3!

The Judeo-Christian principles that are bound in this book are timeless, containing an amazing amount of history, knowledge, wisdom and guidance…

Bring it. Read it. Share it.

It’s attached to a video in which he says he wants to encourage every single student in Kentucky to do this bible thing. I didn’t watch the rest; I’ve had enough sick-making video for one day.

But about that tweet, and even apart from the church-state issue, and the other religions issue, and the what does that have to do with school anyway issue, there is also the content of what he says. Which “Judeo-Christian … Read the rest

The Independent thinks it’s marvelous.

The Old Vic theatre in London is the latest establishment to scrap single-sex toilets in favour of more inclusive alternatives.

As part of a major refurbishment, the 201-year-old theatre has replaced signs on male and female lavatories with pictures of cubicles or urinals.

The brand new facilities have been installed to allow “people to make their own decision about which loo is suitable for them,” the theatre has said.

Not in the case of women who don’t want to share the loo with men they haven’t.

Women don’t want to share a room with men at urinals, and given that whole thing about men placing tiny cameras in women’s toilets they’re not all that … Read the rest

Meanwhile, the Old Vic has completed some renovations.

Yesterday we officially opened our building after nine months of renovations to double the number of loos and improve accessibility.

When you come to visit us you might notice something a little different about our new loos. First, there are double the number – 44 loos within the building.

Our loos now offer ‘self-selection’ rather than being labelled male or female. This takes a descriptive, rather than prescriptive, approach following advice from surveys conducted with focus groups.

Uh oh…

When you arrive in the theatre, you will see labels signposting which blocks contain cubicles and which contain urinals. We also have one specifically designed gender neutral loo.

So men will be … Read the rest

He mad.

The Do Nothing Democrats should be focused on building up our Country, not wasting everyone’s time and energy on BULLSHIT, which is what they have been doing ever since I got overwhelmingly elected in 2016, 223-306. Get a better candidate this time, you’ll need it!

Aw yeah.

Donald J. Trump @realDonaldTrump 35m
Now the press is trying to sell the fact that I wanted a Moot stuffed with alligators and snakes, with an electrified fence and sharp spikes on top, at our Southern Border. I may be tough on Border Security, but not that tough. The press has gone Crazy. Fake News!

You watch: moots stuffed with alligators and snakes are going to be the next big thing.… Read the rest

In fact, according to Scott Stedman of Forensic News Net…

BREAKING EXCLUSIVE: I’m told that Pompeo’s office in recent days asked State Department HR/IG if they could “discipline” officers for “failure to follow direction” if they cooperate with Congress.

This, I’m told, is PART of the IG’s urgent request to Congress.

New request, or the one we learned about last week? I’m guessing the latter but was Pompeo threatening people before the news broke? I don’t know.

There is written documentation.

State Department staffers were truly shocked by the directive, which the IG denied. It appears that Pompeo is threatening his officers if they comply with Congressional inquiries.

The IG denied Pompeo’s request? Or the IG denied the staffers … Read the rest

Pompeo’s attempt to demote Congress doesn’t seem to be gaining any traction:

The chairmen of three House committees say they expect “full compliance” from Secretary of State Mike Pompeo as they investigate President Donald Trump’s dealings with Ukraine.

House Intelligence Committee Chairman Adam Schiff, House Foreign Affairs Committee Chairman Eliot Engel and House Oversight and Reform Committee Chairman Elijah Cummings fired back Tuesday after Pompeo said in a letter that lawmakers are trying to “intimidate” and “bully” his employees. Pompeo said depositions scheduled by the panels are “not feasible.”

The chairmen wrote Pompeo that “any effort to intimidate witnesses or prevent them from talking with Congress” is illegal and could constitute obstruction of justice in their ongoing impeachment inquiry.

Meanwhile…… Read the rest

Pompeo is trying to bully the impeachment hearings:

Secretary of state Mike Pompeo has written to the House foreign affairs committee chairman, New York Democrat Eliot Engel, vowing to prevent attempts to “intimidate, bully, and treat improperly” current and former members of the state department into testifying in relation to the impeachment inquiry.

In the letter, Pompeo said he would work to expose what he called any attempts to intimidate employees, the Wall Street Journal reports.

…

Pompeo said he is “concerned with aspects of the Committee’s request that can be understood only as an attempt to intimidate, bully, & treat improperly the distinguished professionals of the Department of State, including several career [foreign-service officers].”

He works for … Read the rest

So why doesn’t Harrop see it? Why do all the “TERF”-bashers not see it? Harrop’s claim is that people can’t overrule or overcome their sexual preferences and they shouldn’t be pressured to. What if that inability and right not to be pressured about it apply to more than just sexual preferences? What if they apply to other kinds of inter-relating?

What if, for instance, gender critical feminists can interact with trans women as women in some situations but not all? What if we want to reserve the right to talk to other women – literal women – about some subjects, especially those that affect us as women, because we’re women, and don’t affect men the same way, because they’re men? … Read the rest
