The newest member of the Oregon State Legislature says drag queens are pedophiles, children with autism are targeted for “transgenderism,” and “minor attracted persons” are coming for Oregon’s kids.
In a campaign blog post reported by the Oregon Capital Chronicle, newly-appointed Republican state Rep. Dwayne Yunker made the unfounded claims in his bid to unseat former state Rep. Lily Morgan (R), who resigned from the seat Yunker now occupies to become a city manager in the southern Oregon district. Yunker was challenging Morgan, who he accused of not being conservative enough, until she resigned and he was appointed to take her place.
Jack Hibbs said that Satan created the “transgender agenda” and rallied the faithful to support conversion therapy.
Yunker posted his claims last August, explaining a decision to boycott a Grants Pass City Council meeting that included a proclamation supporting Pride Month honoring “the so-called LGBTQ+ community,” in Yunker’s words.
“‘Drag queen story hour,’ or ‘family friendly drag shows’ clearly attempt to make pedophilia seem acceptable,” Yunker wrote. “It is not OK to expose children to drag queens or to claim someone is not a pedophile when he is performing sexually explicit material in front of children.”
“This is headed toward acceptance of so-called ‘minor attracted persons’ who want their letter added to LGBTQ,” he said, repeating an old and harmful anti-LGBTQ+ stereotype. “It is shocking that any adult would endorse this child abuse. Therefore, on June 7, I did not attend the beginning of the Grants Pass City Council meeting. I will not be a part of or stand next to anyone who supports these abuses.”
In a later post, Yunker disputed the resolution’s claim that LGBTQ+ people face persecution, calling it “spurious.” To the contrary, Yunker wrote, “the ever-expanding alphabet movement” discriminates against Christians.
“We cannot sit out afraid someone might call us right wing, homophonic [sic], or even Christian Nationalists.”
Kyndall Mason, executive director of Basic Rights Oregon, called Yunker’s claims “on the very fringe” of the Republican minority’s views in the legislature but alarming nonetheless.
“The uninformed, hateful and false ideas written in Rep. Yunker’s blog posts are deeply dangerous, and will direct more hate to these constituents and all trans and queer Oregonians,” Mason said. “While these posts were written before Yunker was appointed to his seat, we’re alarmed to learn that they are still on his campaign website, and are from less than a year ago.”
While Oregon has a strong record protecting LGBTQ+ rights and boasts one of the first elected lesbian governors in the country, Tina Kotek (D), a faction of rural, ruby-red Republicans reliably promotes a MAGA-inspired cultural agenda.
In the coming legislative session, opening February 5, House Republicans will introduce legislation barring trans people from using bathrooms that correspond with their gender identity and prohibiting trans girls from participating in school sports.
Prosecutors in Chicago have failed to charge a suspect identified in photo lineups as the shooter who killed a trans woman and her mother in a home invasion in January . Three other victims were wounded, including two other trans women. The suspect, who remains unidentified because he hasn’t been charged, has two other pending cases in Cook County court, records reveal: a felony residential burglary count and a misdemeanor count of domestic battery. The 19-year-old suspect lives in the same apartment complex as the victims did, on Chicago’s South Side. The police report for the mass shooting details how two people “kicked in the front door and began shooting” at about 1:40 p.m. on January 23. Unique Banks, 20, and her mother Alexsandra Olmo, 43, were killed at the scene. Three other victims were hospitalized in critical condition. One witness told investigators they had seen two males running north from the courtyard building wearing green camouflage. The shooting took place o...
The U.S. Census Bureau, after nearly a year of pushing the Biden administration, will begin testing questions pertaining to LGBTQ+ identity on its American Community Survey (ACS). These questions would ask people about their sexual orientation and gender identity. The Bureau put out a Federal Register notice signifying that this is the last chance for the public to give comment on all pending ACS questions, including those pertaining to LGBTQ+ individuals. The deadline given for comment is May 30, with an online form provided for any feedback on these questions. The wording for these questions can be found on the Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs website . After the Bureau’s deadline, it will be submitting the questions to the Office of Management and Budget, where they will await approval for testing in the summer. The ACS asks questions about demographic, socioeconomic, and housing-related topics annually. New questions must undergo a rigorous approval and testing p...
Conservatives were already upset about Target over its LGBTQ+-inclusive Pride collection. But now they’re angry over fake AI-generated images that show the store selling “Satanic” clothing. The images show kids wearing clothes with inverted pentagrams and goat heads and a store display with a red, goat-headed mannequin. The images were created by Facebook user Dan Reese with the AI program Midjourney, Reuters reported . A Target spokesperson told the publication that it “has never sold” the pictured items, and the items aren’t available on the store’s website.
