Who raised this evil man? He's probably gay himself and fighting it.

Backlash over [straight white male supremacist] NFL player Harrison Butker’s commencement speech has reached a new level

https://www.cnn.com/2024/05/16/sport/harrison-butker-commencement-speech-analysis-cec/index.html

Harrison Butker Is a Jerk, a Bigot, and a True Representative of the NFL

In a brief commencement speech, the Kansas City kicker managed to be racist, sexist, and homophobic. The NFL’s response is revealing.

Targeting the men in the audience, Butker told them to “be unapologetic in your masculinity,” and to “fight against the cultural emasculation of men.”

Butker was also antisemitic. He threw down with a “Jews killed Jesus” line, saying, “Congress just passed a bill where stating something as basic as the Biblical teaching of who killed Jesus could land you in jail.” Subtle as a blowtorch. But you won’t hear the right say a word about it while they’ll go full-House Un-American Activities Committee on college presidents over fabricated charges of the same.

Pennsylvania lags in electing women to political office

In a state where half of the 12.9 million residents are women, there still is an imbalance — 68% of the positions in the Legislature, for example, are filled by men.

In recent years, women have been making history more often in Pennsylvania, with progress being made in bringing the number of elected officials into closer alignment with the state’s demographics. Yet in a state where half of the 12.9 million residents are women, there still is an imbalance — 68% of the positions in the Legislature, for example, are filled by men.

For some candidates — and voters — it’s not a focal point.

But advocates from Republican, Democrat and nonpartisan projects created in the past few years with the goal of boosting the percentages of women in office argue that it does make a difference.

“Parity in numbers is one measure and one indicator of women’s political influence and their power in the political system,” said Kelly Dittmar, a political science professor at Rutgers-Camden and director of research at the Center for American Women in Politics.

Among the 50 states, Pennsylvania ranks 26, the center says, in terms of female representation in politics, which includes members of state legislatures and Congress.

It’s a marked improvement from where the state was just a few years ago. In 2016, Pennsylvania was ranked 40.
