    Hunter should not threaten, but actually sue their asses. Bankrupt the entire lot of them.

      Came here to say the same thing. And sue Majorie Taylor Greene for showing his dick in congress too.

        I think MTG is technically protected by her status as a Congresswoman and the fact that she read the dick-pick into the Congressional Record. She’d have to be censured by the House Ethics Committee and we all know where that would go under a Republican committee chairman.

          I may be misremembering, but didn’t she email the pictures to her mailing list followers? I don’t feel that would be protected, if so.

            Inter-state trafficking, you say?

            That seems federal, as laws go.

          In my experience, trans people aren’t nearly that stupid, selfish, or hateful. So obviously that user meant that she showed pics of Hunter’s dick.

          But I’m sure you were “just making a joke” in which case I guess you could explain to everybody why a joke with the punchline “I knew he was trans” would be a good joke in 2024.

            You know what, you’re likely right. It was more to poke at republicans and their hypocrisy, but it looks like the world has spoken, not funny enough.

            Godamn I got nuked for that comment. The way this comment is worded, it could either be MTG or Hunter, I chose MTG for the joke.

              I admire you for letting your post stand. I do the same even when I guess wrong at what might be humorous, and end up upsetting the collective. People that delete things because they are getting downvoted strike me as cowardly.

              I hope you come to terms with this middling loss of fake internet points and can move on from your grief!

    I’m sorry, huh?

    I look away from the USA for one second and now national television shows the president’s kid’s cock? And a congresswoman is involved?

    My American comrades, please bring me up to speed about your country s’il vous plait.

    Edit: forgot “kid’s”

    Hahaha, I read the headline as “use” instead of “sue” and got very confused.
