Alright. That is too specific. This guy fucks his dog. There’s no other explanation. This GOP is a dog fucker.
They do have a very long, documented history of projecting…
yup like this guy former Idaho Senator Larry Craig - staunch opponent of LGBTQ+ rights caught cruising for dick in a public bathroom. To be clear, the problem isn't that he was doing gay stuff, but that he was a hypocrite about it and was clearly projecting his own insecurities into law.
Same as Clinton, etc. America wasn't pissed he had an affair ... it was that he lied about it.
Stop. Fucking. Lying.
Not even pissed. The Lewinsky scandal mostly happened through 1998. Here's a chart of Clinton's approval ratings:

Barely any change throughout the year, and even spiked up towards the end of 1998. Americans in general didn't give a fuck. Only the GOP cared.

Be mindful when he says “he’ll be in his Lab”, he’s not a mad scientist.

Aye. It's usually the ones that cry the loudest. How many times haven't outspoken anti-gay people been caught having affairs with a partner of the same sex?
I was going to say the same thing, either he does or he is fantasizing about it. What a weird individual.

Opposite-sex marriage leads to incest and inbreeding. Maybe we should just outlaw marriage altogether.
Honestly, I don't know why marriage is even codified into law.
I take that back, I do. But it's a stupid reason.
There really is no modern reason that marriage needs to be something you need to let the government know about.
This is of course a non-US view, I’m not sure how different the laws are there. But marriage is a great one-stop shop that lets you get a lot of legal kerfuffles sorted in 20-30 minutes with nothing but a couple signatures. I don’t think it is a stupid reason, the stupidity comes from all the other bullshit people want to dump onto marriage.
Modern Marriage is a legal contract, it needs government more than ever because it’s pretty much tax benefits.

I’ve always thought that the word “marriage” should be removed from all laws since that’s a religious term and constantly quibbled about. Replace it with “civil union” defined as a joining between two consenting adults and leave the definition of “marriage” to the churches.

I agree. Its critical in the US because of how we ration healthcare. Which is just stupid.
"Rationing healthcare" is such a dystopian ideology. It sounds like we're unable to increase heathcare availability due to force(s) out of our control ... which is the exact opposite of what happens.
I'm so tired of these fucking twats inflicting their neuroses, hang ups, mental illnesses, and kinks on the rest of us.
Get out of politics and get into therapy.

Election deniers should be sentenced to hard labor
Generous, aren't you?
If the hard labor was building roads or railways, it would be generous to everyone.

IDK about anyone else here, but when I see anodyne-sounding-but-doublespeak org names like 'Alliance Defending Freedom', it's a red flag.
ADF has never defended freedom, unless by 'freedom' you mean the ability to discriminate against LGBT folk and women. They proclaim themselves to be for "the right of people to freely live out their faith" but really that only seems to cover folks whose faith is some flavor of political bigotry.
Yeah so when Johnson remarked that "God has ordained each of us" to congress, the flavor of God he's talking about is the one that wants laws to protect anti-LGBT bullies and vigilantes, not their victims. Meanwhile everyone else whose faith does not abet that shit now gets to hear him claim to speak hate on God's behalf
Also in case you forgot, the history of sentencing people to 'hard labor' derives from the post-civil-war practice of convicting black men in kangaroo courts (after all, the 13th Amendment allowed for slavery if it was punishment for a crime). When they were told they couldn't keep slaves but they could enslave people if they were convicts, the notion of 'convict leasing' was born.
It's only day two and I'm already sick of his face.
Pregnancy doctor sentenced to labor.
I'm sorry. It's early.
Throw bibles at him. Hard covers only.

GOP sending their best & brightest I see.
So with the whole republican projection thing, I'm seriously worried for Mr. Johnson's pet(s).
I'd say religious extremists should be loaded on cruise ships and denied port entry until their god manifests them a new continent (it's close enough to their bible), but at the rate things are going with Antarctica that's far too lenient.
Seems like the perfect repesentant to the GOP lol
May his loss of power be swift and embarrassing to him and his ilk, and cause the RNC to sink further into self destruction.
What is it with "hard labor"? Do the speakers really thing that makes them sound badass? The loss of freedom is a huge punishment already. The labor part is just letting someone profit off of human misery.
They want to bring back open slavery... Slavery with extra steps should be obvious: They want to get rid of the extra steps!
The profit is the whole point for them
That's the point for them. They want to make others miserable who don't agree with them, and beyond that they want to benefit and profit off of others misery.

And religious extremist lead the GOP to children rape and to all the laws against women to keep the supply of young kid so if i have to choose ? Let a guy marry is turtle
If this isn't motivation to stop voting delirious, brain-dead geriatrics into the presidency, I don't know what is. This dude is two accidents away from being a fascist dictator.
It’s more likely to lead to polygamy again, which is kinda what the ultra religious want anyways, ratio weighted towards the alpha male of course.
Polygamy will be legal and they’ll complain about any relationship with more than one man. Cause the Bible says….
That sounds great, multiple women pissed at me giving me lists of chores. Oh how I can't wait
