Episode 736 – Just Leave the Kids Alone!

Joe Biden pulls out his veto pen again. The Supreme Court will be pulling out theirs soon.

The trans people are under threat again. By who? Middle aged mothers.

And Gavin Newsom, who has never followed the Constitution, wants to make some changes to it.

He Has to Do Something

According to Red State:

As RedState previously reported, the U.S. House passed a resolution—H.J. Res. 45—to block the Biden Department of Education’s rule, which would “forgive” millions of dollars in student loans, on May 25. Then the U.S. Senate voted on and passed the resolution on June 1. The White House made it clear that the legislation would be vetoed by President Joe Biden once it reached his desk.

President Biden has vetoed a measure that would have overturned his student debt relief plan, leaving the fate of the program in the hands of the Supreme Court. […]

The president’s proposal, which has been a target of Republicans since he first unveiled it, would impact 40 million borrowers, providing $10,000 in loan forgiveness to those making less than $125,000 annually and $20,000 in forgiveness for Pell Grants recipients.

They Should Be Nervous

According to Red State:

The Human Rights Campaign (HRC), the largest LGBTQ civil rights organization in the United States, has declared a state of emergency for LGBTQ individuals. Why? Because the malevolent governments of red states have passed laws that are supposedly threatening members of the LGBTQ community by passing laws prohibiting the infusion of transgender ideology in the classroom, “gender-affirming care” for minor children, and refusing to allow biological males to compete in women’s sports.

Here’s their statement:

Today, the Human Rights Campaign (HRC) — the nation’s largest lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and queer (LGBTQ+) civil rights organization — officially declared a state of emergency for LGBTQ+ people in the United States for the first time in its more than 40-year history, following an unprecedented and dangerous spike in anti-LGBTQ+ legislative assaults sweeping state houses this year. A new report released by HRC today — LGBTQ+ Americans Under Attack — details more than 75 anti-LGBTQ+ bills that have been signed into law this year alone, more than doubling last year’s number, which was previously the worst year on record.

The sharp rise in anti-LGBTQ+ measures has spawned a dizzying patchwork of discriminatory state laws that have created increasingly hostile and dangerous environments for LGBTQ+ people, prompting HRC today to also issue a national warning and downloadable guidebook for the LGBTQ+ community — including health and safety resources, a summary of state-by-state laws, “know your rights” information, and resources designed to support LGBTQ+ travelers as well as those already living in hostile states.

Never Going to Happen

According to Fox News:

California Democratic Gov. Gavin Newsom wants to change the Constitution to curb gun rights. 

Fed up with inaction on gun control, Newsom unveiled a proposed 28th Amendment to the Constitution on Thursday that would implement “commonsense” gun safety measures he claims have widespread bipartisan support.

“Our ability to make a more perfect union is literally written into the Constitution,” Newsom said Thursday. “So today, I’m proposing the 28th Amendment to the United States Constitution to do just that. The 28th Amendment will enshrine in the Constitution commonsense gun safety measures that Democrats, Republicans, Independents, and gun owners overwhelmingly support — while leaving the Second Amendment unchanged and respecting America’s gun-owning tradition.”

This is what it would do:

The Democratic governor’s proposed 28th Amendment would not abolish the Second Amendment, which establishes a right to bear firearms for personal self-defense and other lawful purposes. However, it would raise the federal minimum age to purchase a firearm from 18 to 21; mandate universal background checks to purchase firearms; institute a waiting period for all gun purchases; and ban “assault weapons.”
