Republicans plan to sue Gov. Katie Hobbs for being against discrimination

It did not take long for Arizona’s new Gov. Katie Hobbs to show her true colors.

And it took even less time for Republican lawmakers to show theirs.

As one of her first acts, Hobbs signed an executive order directing the Department of Administration to prohibit discrimination in matters of hiring, promotion and pay based on sexual orientation and gender identity. Same with all new state contracts.

In other words, the governor wants to make sure the state puts into practice the idea that all Arizonans are “created equal,” a truth our founders believed to be self-evident. Although, apparently not to Republicans in the Legislature’s so-called Arizona Freedom Caucus.

Most Republicans are born assholes. Nothing more.
