We here at The Doctor Demento Show would like to express our sincerest apologies for today's program. When we invited Tom Lehrer on the show, it was in hopes of having a frank and honest exchange of ideas about local avian fauna. The last thing we would condone is hate speech, and as such, his comme

This episode aired in 1994 and no other joke about American politics has held up that consistently for so long.

Project 2025 wants to put Hyun Sook and I, and anyone else who writes books they falsely scream "pornography" at, in prison. They want the teachers and librarians who shelve our books to be registered sex offenders. I know what books they consider "porn," because my book banners are on their board.
Psst: Project 2025 is terrifying for a lot of reasons but also because on page 5 it calls for teachers and librarians who grant access to books that are maligned as pornography (which just means anything LGBTQ) to be registered as sex offenders. Pass it on.

Donald Trump's Project 2025 manifesto calls for my YA books that were designed to help queer kids feel brave enough to come out to themselves as child pornography, and for me to be imprisoned. I wish that was an exaggeration, but it's not. I'm voting for Biden because if he loses I'm in danger.

also and I feel like I buried the lede here: it calls for the people who CREATE queer media to be imprisoned. That'd be people like me. Or any other queer creator you love. Any queen who's been on drag race. Chappel Roan. Janelle Monae. Anyone who's made a piece of queer media. Imprisoned.

The USPS is fucking great. Frankly it's a marvel of government doing unalloyed GOOD for the people. Which is why Republicans have spent decades trying to strangle it to death so it can be carved up and sold to UPS and FedEx and etc who are uniformly WORSE at the task in every measurable way
I didn't have to pretend. The USPS is a genuine Public Good. I did fan art for it. I Love the USPS.

So a cop from out of town killed a homeless black man. That isn't murder?
The Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel confirms that a Columbus, Ohio, police officer detailed to the RNC shot and killed a homeless Black man (earlier reported to be in his early 20s) more than half a mile from the RNC arena. The man was known by the nickname Jehovah and took care of a pit bull named Isis.
Ohio police officer shoots, kills person in Milwaukee outside of RNC perimeter, sources saywww.jsonline.com The man killed by Ohio officers near the RNC on Tuesday was well-known in the neighborhood, several witnesses told the Journal Sentinel.

Wild that Musk is moving SpaceX to Texas because California passed a law to protect trans students. Literally has nothing to do with his business, but he's gonna uproot a ton of people's lives because he hates his trans daughter. Dude could not be scummier.

Liberals absolutely tripping over themselves to defend the honor of a guy who literally moments before being shot at, was threatening the most heinous violence towards immigrants Respectability politics is just leftists jerking themselves off, the right doesn't fucking care until they can use it

Speaking of, if you live in California, please text “Sign PGHZOY” and “sign PHQICF” to 50409 to encourage your reps to join calls for an independent investigation with public disclosure into allegations against BH city officials colluded with antiabortion extremists to prevent a clinic from opening.
How Beverly Hills became an unlikely battleground for the future of abortion rightswww.yahoo.com The campaign by an antiabortion group to block the opening of a specialized clinic in Beverly Hills may offer a playbook for similar efforts in other cities and states.

a rule of thumb is it's never ok to say or imply that trans women are men. even if they are being shitty. that's not a lever you pull.

Something you may have missed yesterday - The Biden Administration is going to unveil a nationwide rent control proposal. It's going to be challenging to implement, and will require control of both chambers, but they're working on it. www.washingtonpost.com/business/202...

As soon as we learned that Crooks was a registered Republican it was clear that the assassination attempt was going to be a two-day story.

Just a reminder that transphobia includes hate against nonbinary people, and if you are willing to overlook one kind of transphobia because someone doing it is calling out a different kind that more directly affects you, you may want to sit with that.

It's as disheartening as it is fascinating that we're just a few years shy of a century since the richest people in the world lined up against the poorest in almost exactly the same kind of political confrontation we're facing today.

fwiw unlike every other union in the United States, the Teamsters actually do have a perfectly good reason to hate Democrats: A Dem trifecta in 1980 passed the Motor Carrier Act that deregulated the trucking industry and decimated Teamster membership and wages.

JD Vance is on the ticket because he wants the government to kill trans people. Vance has been more vocal in his transphobia than just about any other leading VP candidate. That's a deliberate choice by Team Trump.
J.D. Vance's horrendous record of homophobia and transphobiawww.advocate.com Donald Trump's vice-presidential pick hasn't been a senator long — but he's been in the public eye long enough to accrue a strongly anti-LGBTQ+ record.

I found out last week that SM are Trumpets, and despite me using them once a month for years, it was a really easy decision to say nope, never again. And I would then to tell them exactly why they lost my business.
