From the New York Post: Presidential hopeful Kamala Harris became the first sitting vice president to sashay into the werkroom this week after sharing a get-out-the-vote message on “RuPaul’s Drag Race All Stars,” leading to a mix of cheers and jeers online.
“Each day, we are seeing our rights and freedoms under attack, including the right of everyone to be who they are, love who they love, openly and with pride,” Harris, 59, said in the clip that was teased Thursday but slated to air at the top of the Season 9 finale Friday.
“So as we fight back against these attacks, let’s all remember, no one is alone,” continued Harris, flanked by RuPaul regulars Michelle Visage and Jamal Sims, *NSYNC singer Lance Bass, “Ghostbusters” actress Leslie Jones and “American Horror Story” actor Cheyenne Jackson — all LGBQT+ icons.
“We are all in this together and your vote is your power. So please make sure your voice is heard this November and register to vote at vote.gov.”

This country needs to hot bath. It's gotten so filthy it's almost hard to even recognize it anymore.

One person used a passage from the Bible to condemn the stunt.
Romans 1:18-32 reads as follows:
18 The wrath of God is being revealed from heaven against all the godlessness and wickedness of people, who suppress the truth by their wickedness, 19 since what may be known about God is plain to them, because God has made it plain to them. 20 For since the creation of the world God’s invisible qualities—his eternal power and divine nature—have been clearly seen, being understood from what has been made, so that people are without excuse.
21 For although they knew God, they neither glorified him as God nor gave thanks to him, but their thinking became futile and their foolish hearts were darkened. 22 Although they claimed to be wise, they became fools 23 and exchanged the glory of the immortal God for images made to look like a mortal human being and birds and animals and reptiles.
24 Therefore God gave them over in the sinful desires of their hearts to sexual impurity for the degrading of their bodies with one another.
25 They exchanged the truth about God for a lie, and worshiped and served created things rather than the Creator—who is forever praised. Amen.
26 Because of this, God gave them over to shameful lusts. Even their women exchanged natural sexual relations for unnatural ones.
27 In the same way the men also abandoned natural relations with women and were inflamed with lust for one another. Men committed shameful acts with other men, and received in themselves the due penalty for their error.
28 Furthermore, just as they did not think it worthwhile to retain the knowledge of God, so God gave them over to a depraved mind, so that they do what ought not to be done.
29 They have become filled with every kind of wickedness, evil, greed and depravity. They are full of envy, murder, strife, deceit and malice. They are gossips,
30 slanderers, God-haters, insolent, arrogant and boastful; they invent ways of doing evil; they disobey their parents;
31 they have no understanding, no fidelity, no love, no mercy.
32 Although they know God’s righteous decree that those who do such things deserve death, they not only continue to do these very things but also approve of those who practice them.
Romans 1:18-32.
