Remember when Nikki Joly the trans activist burned down his own home including two pets inside, because he was upset there wasn't any discrimination against trans people?
Why on earth do people admit to this stuff? I mean, any idiot can see what damage it would do to the cause, so what was he thinking??

Anti-Gay GOP KS Rep Avoids Jail After Assaulting Student
Kansas Representative Mark Samsel cannot use personal social media and must apologize to his teenage victims, a judge ordered Monday, capping four months of court proceedings after he kicked a student in the groin while substitute teaching in Wellsville southwest of Kansas City.
The Republican lawmaker was given a 90-day suspended jail sentence and put on probation for a year by Magistrate Judge Kevin Kimball during a short hearing conducted over Zoom.
Samsel originally faced three misdemeanor battery charges following his arrest in April that involved two victims, both approximately 16 years old. He was accused of kicking a student and videos showed him talking to a class about about God, religion, lesbianism, masturbation, and suicide.
Samsel said, "God works in mysterious ways," when confronted by law enforcement officers over a bruise he gave a student while he was substitute teaching in April, according to a newly-released court document.
The Wellsville Republican faces three misdemeanor battery charges involving two approximately 16-year-old victims from an April 28th incident at the city's high school. Numerous videos taken by students that day show Samsel ranting about God, the Bible, masturbation and suicide.
One student told police Samsel kicked him in the crotch. Samsel also told investigators he was following instructions from God.
The things that you argue about are normal, and spending money on equalizing inequality is normal. Many people would think differently if the infringement touched, for example, people with blue eyes or piercing lovers.
Texas Law Requires Schools to Teach Holocaust from Nazi Perspective
A top administrator with the Carroll Independent School District in Southlake advised teachers last week that if they have a book about the Holocaust in their classroom, they should also offer students access to a book from an "opposing" perspective, according to an audio recording obtained by NBC News.
Gina Peddy, the Carroll school district's executive director of curriculum and instruction, made the comment Friday afternoon during a training session on which books teachers can have in classroom libraries. The training came four days after the Carroll school board, responding to a parent's complaint, voted to reprimand a fourth grade teacher who had kept an anti-racism book in her classroom.
"Just try to remember the concepts of House Bill 3979," Peddy said in the recording, referring to a new Texas law that requires teachers to present multiple perspectives when discussing "widely debated and currently controversial" issues. "And make sure that if you have a book on the Holocaust," Peddy continued, "that you have one that has an opposing, that has other perspectives."
Fox Passes Off Son of GOP Activist as "Offended Student"
Fox News host Lawrence Jones reported from a Leesburg, Virginia diner Thursday morning, and broke major news when he came across a student who revealed—live on camera—that he felt "attacked" by "woke teachers" who showed him "degrading" videos.
In what is a remarkable coincidence, the student in question, William Shultz, is the son of Elizabeth Shultz, who is a former school board member in Fairfax County, a GOP activist, and has appeared on Fox News before to explain an op-ed she wrote complaining about critical race theory being taught in schools.
At no time in the segment did Jones disclose that Elizbeth Shultz is a political activist and so Fox & Friends viewers were left with the impression that she and her son's reaction is just standard fare for Virginia diners.
Fox News regularly presents "angry parents" who are in fact local GOP activists and candidates.
This is sick. And I wish I didn't get the rationale, but I think I do.
Go to dog pound where unwanted puppies will be destroyed anyways, and take them for nothing and use them to expeirment on. No overhead cost, gonna die anyways, so use to advance science.
Which in no way makew this Humane or right.
We deserve Covid.

Texas Christian Radio Host Gets Three Life Sentences for Ponzi Scheme
A Texas radio host was sentenced to three life prison sentences Monday for a Ponzi scheme in which he bilked elderly listeners out of millions of dollars. William Neil "Doc" Gallagher also got a 30-year prison sentence from state District Judge Elizabeth Beach for his August guilty pleas. The sentences are to be served concurrently.
The sentencing came after more than a dozen senior victims testified during a three-hour court hearing about losing anywhere from $50,000 to $600,000 invested in the Gallagher Financial Group.
Gallagher, 80, and his Gallagher Financial Group advertised on Christian radio with the tagline, "See you in church on Sunday." He promoted his investment business in books, such as Jesus Christ, Money Master, and on Christian radio broadcasts.
VIDEO: Cawthorn Met Soon-to-Be Ex-Wife in Russia at Fake CrossFit Competition
An 18-month-old video of Republican Representative Madison Cawthorn explaining how he met his soon-to-be ex-wife emerged on Twitter this weekend.
The 26-year-old congressman, who represents North Carolina, recounted that he was on vacation in St. Petersburg, Russia with friends. Cawthorn said he embarked on "one last trip" before undergoing a back surgery that he feared would prevent him from flying again.
"We just decided to take $100 each, and go into a casino, and see how it went," Cawthorn said. He did not mention how he gained access to a casino in St. Petersburg, since gambling and casinos have been banned in Russia since 2009.
"I ended up meeting an American there who was a captain in the Army, and he was originally from Miami," said Cawthorn, who identified the other man as "Todd."
The congressman said he and Todd formed "a really great relationship" and stayed in contact for a year-and-a-half. Cawthorn said he later met up with Todd while on a work trip to Miami, and the latter invited him to a CrossFit competition.
"I laughed and said, 'Well, Todd, I'm in a wheelchair. I obviously can't do CrossFit.' And he said, 'Well, just do the pull-up section.'"
Cawthorn said he attended the competition but found out it "all was a sham. It was a fake CrossFit competition."
"He just wanted to put me in the same room with the girl who was eventually going to become my fiancée. And so, we did, and her and I hit it off, and it's been a magical relationship ever since," Cawthorn added.
On December 22nd, Cawthorn announced that he and his wife, Cristina Bayardelle Cawthorn, were divorcing after less than a year of marriage.
GOP Senator: Teachers Should Be Impartial on Nazis
During a committee hearing Wednesday about Senate Bill 167, a wide-ranging bill inspired by the national discourse over critical race theory, history teacher Matt Bockenfeld raised concerns about what the bill would require of teachers. "For example, it's the second semester of U.S. history, so we're learning about the rise of fascism and the rise of Nazism right now," Bockenfeld said. "And I'm just not neutral on the political ideology of fascism. We condemn it, and we condemn it in full."
Senator Scott Baldwin, a Republican from Noblesville, said that may be going too far. Baldwin said he does not discredit Marxism, Nazism, fascism or "any of those isms out there. I have no problem with the education system providing instruction on the existence of those isms," he said. "I believe that we've gone too far when we take a position on those isms. We need to be impartial."
In October 2021, Baldwin's name was found a hacked list of alleged Oath Keepers members. He denied belonging to the group but refuses to condemn them.
Voters Seek to Disqualify Insurrectionist Candidate
Evidently, the people of North Carolina agree:
A group of North Carolina voters told state officials on Monday they want U.S. Representative Madison Cawthorn disqualified as a congressional candidate, citing his involvement in last January's rally in Washington questioning the presidential election outcome before a Capitol riot later that day.
Lawyers filed a candidacy challenge of the Republican on behalf of 11 voters with the State Board of Elections, which oversees a process by which a candidate's qualifications are scrutinized. The voters contend that Cawthorn, who formally filed as a candidate for the 13th District seat last month, cannot run because he fails to comply with an amendment in the U.S. Constitution ratified shortly after the Civil War.
The 1868 amendment says no one can serve in Congress "who, having previously taken an oath, as a member of Congress to support the Constitution of the United States, shall have engaged in insurrection or rebellion against the same."
