    And while we’re at it, what’s up with that funny-looking kid with the long ears at shortstop? He looks like a member of the Deep State. He even once was spotted drinking alcohol with the Red Baron.

    Speaking of Governor Short Bus:

    NASHVILLE, Tenn. – Gov. Bill Lee has signed a bill that requires businesses and government facilities open to the public to post signage if they allow transgender people to use multi-person bathrooms, locker rooms, or changing rooms associated with their gender identity.
    Lee signed the bill (House Bill 1182) on Monday, making Tennessee the first state to require public businesses to post signs outside of any facility considered “inclusive”.
    The signing comes a few days after Lee quietly signed another controversial piece of legislation into law. Last Friday, the governor signed a bill that puts public schools and districts in Tennessee at risk of lawsuits if they allow transgender students or staff to use multi-person locker rooms or restrooms, that don’t align with their sex at birth.
    The “bathroom bill” requires schools to try to offer a single-occupancy or employee facility for anyone who wants more privacy, but it specifically bars letting transgender people use multi-person facilities that don’t align with their birth gender.
    Back in March, Lee signed a bill banning transgender athletes from middle and high school sports. After the signing, he tweeted the bill will, “preserve women’s athletics and ensure fair competition.”

    This is so fucked up. My trans nephew uses the men's room. How would it look if bearded him went into the ladies room because that's how he was born and those are the parts he has? Same with a trans women entering a men's room.
    Not only are they solving a problem that doesn't exist, they are creating more problems.

    If I owned a business, my sign would say "We Don't Care Where You Pee. Fuck Bill Lee."

    A not insignificant part of Bill Lee’s constituency wants to beat the shit out of LGBTQ people, or at least brag that they would do so. Violence is a special interest.

    These are the same people who'd napalm Title IX in a heartbeat if they could.

    In fact, they've been spending most of the last 45 years to do exactly that.

    That's nice. But is William Daniels going to be the voice of the truck?

    Ironic about Title IX, since the Tennessee womens' basketball and indoor track teams have won the school's most recent four national championships.

    Make sure to wave that sign in front of Pat McCrory every time you get the chance.
