I just read that Donald Trump and his circus took down a website called reproductiverights.gov

This was a website to help women learn about their reproductive rights in the US and to find health care.

This is absolutely disgusting so I’ll share in this post some resources in case you need them:

Stop the Sept. 24 Execution of Marcellus Williams, an Innocent Man

DNA evidence proves Marcellus Williams is innocent.

Marcellus Williams is scheduled to be executed on Sept. 24 for a crime DNA proves he did not commit. The St. Louis County prosecuting attorney reviewed these DNA results and filed a motion to vacate Mr. Williams’ conviction because he believed the DNA results proved by clear and convincing evidence that Mr. Williams did not commit this crime. Although the circuit court has not yet scheduled a hearing to address this motion — and no court has ever considered the new exculpatory evidence — the Missouri Supreme Court set an execution date for Mr. Williams.

We have less than 60 days to stop the execution of an innocent person. Add your name to stop this injustice before it’s too late.

If you live and vote in California, I hope by now you've heard that there is an election happening on September 14th. You may have even gotten your ballot in the mail already.

An election? In September? Yes. A stupid one.

You see, some Republicans got Big Mad at Governor Gavin Newsom when he made the decision to lockdown the state last year at the beginning of the pandemic. They decided to start a petition to remove (recall) him from office. California's state constitution allows voters to remove the governor via recall election if they get enough signatures.

How many signatures, you ask? 12% of the total votes cast in the previous election for the office of the person being recalled, or in this case, 1.5 million.

Yeah. That's all. Out of a state of nearly 40 million people. A state that is the 5th largest economy in the world.

Just 1.5 million people need to sign an official recall petition for a statewide vote to remove the governor from office.

(If you didn't know, a recall election is how California got Arnold Schwarzenegger for governor in 2003.)

If a simple majority (50% + 1 vote) of voters choose YES on their ballots, Gavin Newsom will be removed from office and whomever of the 46 candidates on the ballot gets more votes than anyone else (not even a majority vote, just more than the other candidates) will become California's new governor.

The current (as of today, August 20th) frontrunners are a very right-wing talk radio host named Larry Elder, and a real estate broker/YouTube personality named Kevin Paffrath. Neither have what you would call "political experience."

(Caitlin Jenner is also running. Just in case you were wondering.)

How do you get on a recall ballot in California? To replace the governor, the highest office in the state? Well, you need to complete the arduous task of forking over about $4000 and getting 7500 signatures of real Californians saying they back you as a candidate.

Yeah. That's all.

Oh, and just having this election is costing CA taxpayers over $250 million dollars.

So what's at stake if Newsom gets recalled?

Majority control of the US Senate.

You see, Senator Dianne Feinstein is 88 years old this year. She's been Senator since 1992. If she falls too ill to continue her duties, if she resigns, if she dies while in office, California does not hold a Senatorial election.

The governor appoints a replacement.

This is how we got our current junior Senator, Alex Padilla, after Kamala Harris was inaugurated as Vice President.

Let me say that again.

The governor appoints a replacement Senator if Dianne Feinstein cannot complete her term.

If enough people vote to recall Gavin Newsom, and a Republican, or Libertarian, or, let's be honest, any inexperienced wet sack that can be bought off by the highest bidder, takes his place, they will very possibly appoint a Republican Senator to replace Dianne Feinstein and put that fuckface Mitch McConnell back in control of the US Senate.

So please, please, if you're a Californian, make sure you're registered to vote, get your ballot, and vote NO on this stupid waste of money recall election.

Hey there’s this bar in Cheyenne, Wyoming that sells a violent, anti-LGBTQ+ shirt

https://youtu.be/mvB45sOoC6I

This video from Jimmy Snow does a great job of summing up what’s going on, but if you don’t want to/can’t watch the video, here’s a brief summary.

In 1998, an openly gay student, Mathew Shepard, was brutally tortured and murdered in Wyoming. I will not add the details of this murder as it’s incredibly brutal, but if you really want to read about it, here is an article:

https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-45968606.amp

As for how this relates to what’s going on in Cheyenne, there’s a bar called The Eagles Nest that sells a shirt that celebrates the murder of LGBTQ+ people and encourages continued violence against us. I will not include and image of it here, but (TW) it says “in Wyoming we have a cure for aids. We shoot fuckin’ f*****s”.

If you are thinking of going to protest the bar, DONT.

It’s a biker bar and you will be putting yourself in extreme danger if you go protest in person.

In his video’s description, Jimmy has the emails of the mayor of Cheyenne, a website to contact Wyoming’s governor, and the email of a guy who runs a tourist website that recommends The Eagles Nest to tourists. If you want to help make a change in a way that doesn’t put yourself in mortal danger, EMAIL THEM!

Here’s the emails and link and some templates you can send:

Contact Domenic Bravo (the one who runs the tourist site)

domenic@cheyenne.org

Will you remove The Eagles Nest from the Visit Cheyenne site (cheyenne.org)? If not, why do you include The Eagles Nest on a tourist site, knowing some tourists will be LGBTQA+ & they will be going to a place where they will be in danger? Do you condone this?

Contact the Mayor

mayor@cheyennecity.org

Do you agree with the sentiment on the shirts that were being sold at The Eagle's Nest Bar? Will you make a public statement?

Will you now support an anti-discrimination legislation going through immediately for the state of Wyoming, or just for Cheyenne as the mayor?

Contact the Governor

https://governor.wyo.gov/contact

The bar in question sells merchandise that claims to represent all of Wyoming, saying that in Wyoming you exe*ute queer folk. Do you agree with that sentiment? Do you want LGBTQA+ people who live in Cheyenne to feel safe? Do you want them to visit the state? If yes, is it important to you that they feel safe? Will you support anti discrimination legislation?

And lastly, here’s a link to the Wyoming Equality advocacy group:

https://www.wyomingequality.org/

TL;DR a bar in Cheyenne, Wyoming sells shirts that condone and encourage the killing of LGBTQ+ people, emails and links to make change are included in the post above
