Brought to you by...Our local GOP Dinner

The local town dinner which has made itself well known for
the Republican gathering spot. Just had Michael Flynn and Mandel boy speak at this greasy spoon establishment.

Hard to believe our quaint town has turned into a cesspole of Republican Nazi’s.

The diner sports all sorts of Patriotic Graphics

Yummy right?

Ohio propose their own "Don't Say Gay" Bill

With a Side of Critical Race Theory Hysteria

Ohio Republicans also want to ban talk of sexual orientation and gender identity in grade school.

Florida’s so-called “Don’t Say Gay” law is seemingly inspiring conservatives across the nation; Republicans in Ohio introduced a bill Monday that mirrors Florida’s ban on classroom discussion of gender identity and sexual orientation, and to add their own twist, the Ohio bill includes a splash of critical race theory hysteria as well. The bill would ban Ohio public school teachers from using “any curriculum or instructional materials on sexual orientation or gender identity” in kindergarten through third grade. It would also prohibit teachers of fourth- to 12th-grade students from discussing “sexual orientation or gender identity in any manner that is not age-appropriate or developmentally appropriate for students in accordance with state standards.” And shoehorned into this anti-LGBTQ+ bill is a ban on all materials that discuss “critical race theory,” “intersectional theory,” and “inherited racial guilt,” (specifically citing Nikole Hannah-Jones’s 1619 Project for The New York Times) and a catchall clause that would forbid the teaching of any “concept that the state board of education defines as divisive or inherently racist.”
