    Yeah, scratching my head on that one. I'm thinking either Edward misunderstood the statements made by Milano or just thinks that she is stealing the thunder from black activists.

    Yeah, that response caught my eye too. And it was spot on right to boot.

    Unhinged GOP lawmaker arrested after trying to be a substitute teacher. He terrified the students.
    He allegedly kicked a student's groin, asked teens about their masturbation habits, and ranted about a foster child that he claims attempted suicide because of lesbian parents.

    This is terrifying. This GOP lawmaker should never be let close to young people, because all he loves is kicking them in their private parties.
    They're not the party of children refusing to eat their vegetables, they are the party of eating children.

    It was on this date in 2015 that “Crazy/Stupid Republican of the Day” profiled Tom Ready, a former Pueblo County, Colorado Republican Party Chairman who was running for county commissioner in 2014. His record already was spotty, as he had been accused of domestic violence by his wife back in 1991, but he showed himself to be still a bit unpalatable as an elected official when during a debate against his opponent, he was confronted about having made several posts about the mass shooting at Sandy Hook Elementary being a hoax. Rather than just blow off his opponent’s claim, Ready took the bait and began discussing his belief of the conspiracy to enact gun control, going as far as accusing one of the fathers of one of the victims of faking tears. The crowd was good enough to boo Ready for his disgusting remarks, and since he’s now probably too toxic to attempt to win an election again (we hope).

    It was on this date in 2016 that “Crazy/Stupid Republican of the Day” profiled Jud McMillin, a former member of the Indiana House of Representatives who would coast to victory in all three elections he ran after taking office in the Tea Party Wave in 2010. However, in the midst of his third term in office, abruptly resigned after a graphic sex video of McMillin was sent from his cell phone video to many, if not all of his contacts. In what was perhaps the weirdest excuse ever for such a thing to have happened, McMillin blamed this incident on Canadian thieves having stolen his phone, and then uploading the videos during a trip to Quebec City (except McMillan was in them). McMillin’s resignation would make it clear that whoever starred in his video with him was not his wife, as in it, he made reference to how t he was married and that he “decided the time is right for me to pass the torch and spend more time with my family.” Jud likely has a lot of explaining to do, as this was not the first time he was ever caught sending out sex videos of himself… in 2005 he was forced to resign as a prosecutor after during a case where he was prosecuting a domestic violence case, he began sending videos of himself masturbating and playing around to dildos to the defendant’s accuser and wife. Now, here comes some delightful irony… Jud McMillin, as a state legislator, had previously blocked a bill to prevent people from being charged with revenge porn, so he wouldn’t be able to seek legal repercussion against whoever stole his phone and victimized him. Well, adding a dash of hypocrisy would probably be the fact that Jud McMillin was also a sponsor of Indiana’s “SB 101, the “Religious Freedom Restoration Act” and he previously voted to try and create an amendment to the Indiana state constitution to define marriage as between one man and one woman. Which means, yes, the guy who runs around on his wife and films it on his phone is just pretending when he says he’s writing laws to “protect the sanctity of marriage” from gay people based on their own religious beliefs. Shocking, I know. Now, as it turns out, not all of Jud McMillin’s ethical lapses were of a sexual nature, as he was also under investigation for funneling thousands of dollars of state grants funds for a casino project to his law firm back in 2013. McMillin, however, was not as keen as when others get government money, as he also led a failed effort to try to drug test all welfare recipients in the state of Indiana as a legislator on multiple occasions. There's no coming back from the amount of shadiness he exhibited to win office again, at least we’d hope.)

    It was on this date in 2017, and 2018, that “Crazy/Stupid Republican of the Day” profiled Robert Fisher, a now former member of the New Hampshire House of Representatives who was outed in an investigation by The Daily Beast as having a variety of internet sock puppet accounts, perhaps the most inflammatory being "pk_Atheist", the creator of "The Red Pill", a Men's Rights' Activist forum on Reddit that advocates a pro-rape agenda. And we're not saying this is some scenario where Fisher created it, and trolls came along and took things to a dark place... he himself continued to frequently post about women being able to lie about rape to get men thrown in prison (and a paranoid fear this would happen to him), taping sexual encounters as evidence that it was not rape (with or without a woman's consent), women's "sub-par intelligence", tips on "negging" (a pick-up-artist tactic where a man gives backhanded compliments calculated to undermine confidence and make a woman more vulnerable to advances), how to “spin plates” (balance sleeping with several women at once), argued against statutory rape and age of consent laws because they supposedly gave the sexes unequal treatment, posted tips on how to engage in post-rape text messages with victims to get them to say they enjoyed themselves to use as evidence in court in case one was ever accused, and argued in defense of the rapists in the Steubenville, Ohio case. While first campaigning for state legislature in 2014, Fisher actually admitted to "lurking" on Men's Rights forums, and started a thread as himself to discuss a supposed plague of false rape accusations. At first, Robert Fisher tried logging in and deleting all his Reddit threads and his sock-puppet accounts, after the story broke, but Bonnie Bacarrisse, the journalist who exposed his alter-ego, thought ahead and archived and screen-capped Fisher’s work for posterity prior to publishing. Backed into a corner, Fisher released a statement where he pledged to “continue to stand strong for men's rights” We are thrilled to report that Fisher finally did resign in disgrace, rather than face disciplinary action for his online activities and the threat of perjury charges for lying about his ties to “The Red Pill”.

    On this date in both 2019, as well as 2020, “Crazy/Stupid Republican of the Day” profiledDavid Eastman, a current member of the Alaska House of Representatives first elected to office in 2016 after a failed attempt to win a seat on the Alaska State Senate back in 2012. His district is better known as the little Alaskan hamlet known as Wasilla, aka the wellspring that gave our nation Sarah Palin. And yeah, there might be something in the water in that burg.

    David Eastman came to our attention here at CSGOPOTD because of the extent of his anti-choice fervor. It isn’t just that this upstart GOP legislator literally compares abortion to slavery, and in his one term and change in office, Eastman has already become known as the lunatic willing to be the one lone “no” vote on several pieces of bi-partisan legislative ideas, including honoring African Americans of the Vietnam War, being the lone vote against honoring the African American workers who built the Alaska Highway, and he once submitted an amendment to a bill aimed at raising awareness for sexual assault and child abuse that required that abortion would be referred to as a form of “child abuse.

    That’s still not all, Eastman is really “out there” on abortion. In an interview back in May of 2017, only a few months into his first term in office, he gave his opinion that there are women trying to deliberately get pregnant because they can use an abortion as a means to get a “free vacation” to come down to Anchorage:

    So that little statement was enough to earn Eastman a censure from at the state legislature, and he dug in and refused to apologize for it. Amid the controversy, a legislative aide at the capitol who just resembled Eastman died his natural red hair blonde just to avoid catching hell from people who mistook him for Eastman. Alaska Republicans have also come to realize that Eastman is a corruption scandal waiting to happen, as by the end of his first term in office, he had committed an ethics violation by leaking information from a confidential state report to a reporter as a means of trying to damage a Democratic colleague.

    We’re wondering how David Eastman’s 2020 election fortunes are going to be, as the Alaska GOP is so sick of his s***, they’ve placed him on probation (No word on if it's "double secret probation" or not) for his inane outbursts and obstruction, and have removed him from all roles he plays in committees within the legislature. And yet… Eastman narrowly survived a primary challenger supported by the Alaska GOP in 2020 with 52% of the vote, before coasting to victory in November.

    Eastman, however, was still aggrieved about the validity of the election he won another term in because Donald Trump did not win another second term to serve as an agent of chaos implanted by the Kremlin to run the United States, so he flew all the way from Wasila to Washington, DC to be present at the Capitol during the “Stop the Steal” rally that posed as the legitimate face of the violent coup attempt carried out against members of Congress by Trump supporters on January 6th, 2021. He had the sheer brass balls to claim that he saw no signs of violence on the rotunda that day.

    Then again, people do seem to be of the opinion that David Eastman’s head is waaaay up his arse, so that might explain it.

    Jesus! Does Eastman's mom know his little boy is outside playing politics? He looks like he should be biology class dissecting frogs instead of being an assclown in Alaska's House of Reps. In any event, he's just another lunatic vomited up by the GQP to make life hell for normal Americans.

    I'm thinking new Baseball hat at least. Right now I have to assume everyone I see without a mask is dangerous. We need someway to easily differentiate between fully vaccinated and don't care.
