With so much wrong in the world and the US right now these fetid sacks of gangrenous anal sphincters are focused on hurting one person because it makes them feel good.

It would be so fucking funny if she sued them for workplace sexual harassment.

She should just shit on their desks if they won't let her use the bathrooms.

shall we prosecute republicans molesting kids while we are at it? I know it's not as important but you know maybe you can squeeze that in your agenda.

The AP article made a mistake,

Democrat Sarah McBride — the first transgender person to be elected to Congress

She is the first OPENLY transgender person elected to Congress.

I can't be sure she is the first. I think everyone in Congress should be required to show their genitals on live TV at the start of every session. That way the American people can be sure they know who they've voted for. We don't want liars in Congress do we?

Indeed, also I don't think a single omnipotent presence would be all positive.

Piss in his office. Fucking asshole republicans should mind their own business.

Johnson better be careful, he won't be allowed to use the restroom either if he gets to the binary division stage of his reproduction.
