GOP Wisconsin Rep. Dragged For Claiming BLM Is 'Anti-Family' While Wearing Silly St. Patty's Hat

GOP Wisconsin Rep. Dragged For Claiming BLM Is 'Anti-Family' While Wearing Silly St. Patty's Hat
FOX11 News

Republican Congressman Glenn Grothman of Wisconsin is in hot water online after sitting down for an interview with his local Fox station and claiming Black Lives Matter is "anti-family."

He did this while wearing a silly little glitter hat in honor of St. Patrick's day.


Ignoring Grothman's attire for a moment, his statement was horrendously racist.

He toldFOX 11:

"When we've had such influence of Black Lives Matter, an organization when founded that made clear on their website that they're opposed to the—what they refer to as the 'Western-prescribed nuclear family.' Nuclear families are, of course, worldwide."
"But I think it's important to always point out that there are people who are anti-marriage who keep making anti-marriage provisions in federal law."



Of course, Grothman's choice of headwear got a lot of attention from Twitter.



A sitting Republican Congressman attacking BLM while wearing a tiny, green hat seems about in line with the GOP of recent years.



Twitter mocked Grothman for his sartorial choices.



Many online pointed out Grothman's concern for families didn't seem to extend to legislation.

Grothman, who voted against Biden's pandemic relief bill and formerly opposed the Supreme Court's decision to legalize same-sex marriage, will now have to answer to an even higher authority.

The fashion police.

Claudia Conway Just Shut Far-Right Trump Crony 'Loony' Laura Loomer All The Way Down

Claudia Conway—the daughter of Trump administration presidential counselor Kellyanne Conway and attorney George Conway—took far-right conspiracy theorist Laura Loomer to task for trying to distract from former President Donald Trump's abysmal debate performance against Vice President Kamala Harris last week.

Loomer, who has recently denied rumors of a romantic affair with Trump after being photographed by his side at numerous events including last week's presidential debate and two 9/11 memorials despite her prior claims that the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001 were an "inside job," was swiftly called out by Conway, who suggested she's attracting attention to take eyes off Trump.

Trump Slammed After Claiming That Harris Is 'Killing Black And Hispanic Heritage' In Bonkers Post

Former President Donald Trump was called out after claiming that Vice President Kamala Harris is somehow "KILLING BLACK AND HISPANIC HERITAGE" by allowing "illegal migrants" into the country to take their jobs.

Trump's remarks—absurd considering his "zero tolerance family separation policy" tore migrant families, the majority of them Hispanic, apart—come as he and Harris continue to court Hispanic voters, a key voting bloc that has leaned more conservative in recent years. They also repeat his prior remarks that immigrants are taking "Black jobs," a line that has been widely denounced as racist.

People Debate Whether You Should Let Pets Sleep In Your Bed Or Not

I've always owned cats, so "letting" them do something is kind of a foreign concept. Cats tend to do whatever they want.

I like sharing my bed with my cats. They purr and make effective bedwarmers without electricity, and I would gladly have them sleep with me every night—especially in the wintertime.
