MO lawmaker with gender dysphoria censured after "hate-filled testimony" during bill debate

A male Montana lawmaker with gender dysphoria [he believes he is a female born in a male body] was censured Thursday after he presented "hate filled testimony" during a debate of a bill that would ban minors from getting their genitals mutilated and also be given drugs used for genital castration for rapists, by doctors.

The state representative in question is Rep. Zooey Zephyr (D, of course) who voted for children to be allowed to get their penises removed and reshaped with skin from their arms to look like female genitalia; and for girls to have their developing breasts surgically removed to make them look like boys. And in both cases be given hormones of the gender that coincides with their delusions.


"The only thing I will say, is if you vote yes on this bill and yes on these amendments, I hope the next time there’s an invocation when you bow your heads in prayer, you see the blood on your hands," the mentally ill Democrat said referencing the body's opening prayer.

Republican Speaker Matt Regier then refused to acknowledge Zephyr when he wanted to express his opinion on a bill aiming to put a binary definition of male and female into the state code.

"It is up to me to maintain decorum here on the House floor, to protect the dignity and integrity," Regier said. "And any representative that I don’t feel can do that will not be recognized."

At which point Zephyr had a hissy fit and broke a nail he had allowed to grow and grow.

Regier said that the decision to not allow Zephyr to speak came after "multiple discussions" with other lawmakers, adding that there have been similar problems.

Specifically, the bill would ban minors with gender dysphoria in Montana from receiving the mutilating medical procedures, hormones, and puberty blockers at a time in their lives when their decision making processes are most exemplified with TikTok dares and Tide Pod eating contests.

Sadly, many of these folks with gender dysphoria who "advocate" for minors to validate their own delusions and "transitioning" believe in their 

Republican (of course) Gov. Greg Gianforte has signaled that he will sign the bill if it reaches his desk.

Press freedom groups file congressional ethics charge against Gianforte

"Aaaadrian!"
It's never a good idea to push a journalist to the ground and pound him like you're in the schoolyard and he called your mother a bad name.

A number of press freedom groups have filed a congressional ethics complaint against Rep.-elect Greg Gianforte (R-Mont.) for allegedly body-slamming a reporter who was asking him a question.

It's also indefensible. I don't care if you're on the left or the right--you don't attack a member of the press because you didn't like the question or simply had a bad day.

PEN America, Free Press, Society of Professional Journalists and Reporters Without Borders filed a formal complaint with Congressional ethics officials on Friday. The report comes about a week after the incident in which Gianforte went 'all Rambo' body-slamming Guardian reporter Ben Jacobs.

The question Jacobs asked Greg "The Crusher" Gianforte was about the recent Congressional Budget Office estimate of the GOP's health bill, a question that should really piss off any Republican who didn't like the question.

Gianforte was charged with assault, and the case is still pending in Macho County, Montana.

But seriously, this is unacceptable in the U.S.A.

"A member of the House hasn't physically assaulted someone this severely since the Civil War [how is it that a war can be 'civil'] and we are unaware of any historical precedent for a lawmaker beating up a reporter," said Gabe Rottman, PEN America's Washington Director in a statement. "While Rep. Gianforte's apology was necessary, it was hardly sufficient."

The incident occurred the night prior to the special election for Montana's only U.S. House seat. Not surprisingly, because the district in question has gone red for years, Gianforte beat Democratic challenger, Rob Quist.

The groups filed the complaint with the Office of Congressional Ethics and also wrote to the House Ethics Committee calling for an open investigation within 30 days of any member being charged with a crime, according to a statement.

True to form, the libtards also sent a letter to President Trump claiming that his inflammatory verbiage directed at the media have been followed by violence against journalists. 

If a tree falls in the forest . . . it's Trump's fault . . . everything is Trump's fault.

Gianforte was totally out of line and should not be sworn in just because he's a Republican. Someone has to take the moral high ground and you know it's never going to be the left. We cannot have this kind of behavior in the US.

I don't believe Quist should win on default either. The district that elected Gianforte obviously wants a Republican and that's who needs to get that seat.

If we are happy he won because he's a Republican, then we're no better than they are.

Something is terribly wrong with the country of late and it isn't Trump's fault--I believe it's the fault of the Obama administration and his dividing us along different demographics. So on one level, you can understand how angry both sides can become, but there's no excuse for physical violence unless you want to start an uncivil war.
