Regardless of what fuckery goes on after the vote --- and there are plenty of possibilities being floated around the internet and cable shows --- I would like to see this done as a Voice Vote in both Congressional chambers. I want to see who is either guilty themselves (I'm looking at you Little Mikey) or who wants to protect pedophiles.
Truth be told, it's been a harrowing 12 days. According to a March 2025 report by CNN, 25% of men in the U.S. are victims of domestic violence.
Back in March, a friend escaped his abusive partner and her cult church by leaving the state. He came back 12 days ago and has been hiding out in our house, as we try to gather police reports, hospital records, and retrieve his belongings. Things are almost wrapped up, but until he's safely on his way to the East Coast....

Glad we brothers can help each other. Will be celebrating Thanksgiving with our chosen family. Chosen families can sometimes be stronger than blood.
I was married (to a woman) for 22years (1977 to 1999) and must admit that she was using me to achieve her goals of having kids and a family. It took me the last 7 years of this bad marriage to have the courage to end it and divorce.
For sure I was attracted to men but the main cause of the divorce was her, bossing me all the time and in a psychologic way was castrating me.
I did have hep from friends and my family too mostly because they never liked my wife seeing that she was abusing on me.
When I did read a book about abusive and manipulator people I open my eyes of what kind of manipulator she was.
Since 1999 I'm free and live my life as a gay man and mostly avoiding anyone who has this type of behavior.
You're being a good bro to your friend. I hope he can make a safe new start.
OMG
Hope everything goes well with him!!!
That should be a terrible experience.
XOXO
Luv it, Trump and Johnson what a pair ! Both sick fucks deserve each other.
A castrating bitch can be just as abusive as any man !
In both cases, the abused are either silenced in shame or blinded by love.
Your friend is fortunate to have a safe place.

Wow, what an experience. I'm glad you can him your friend.
Its very hard to post and blog when you have house guest. I sure hope all goes well with your friend. He lucky to have had a good friend to rely on.
I was concerned and just wanted to check that you were OK. That's what friends do. –Larry
And then there is the friend who has the abusive spouse, and stays with them, but every time we got together, they would berate and belittle their partner. Ugh. That and becoming a hard-core Trumper ended our friendship. Imagine that, supporting a guy who has cheated on every wife and is a notorious predator. It takes a lot of courage to end a bad relationship. Hugs and bisous
Oh my! How horrible! I hope everything works out well for your friend and glad you are there to help!
Forty years ago a female cousin of mine came to visit me in graduate school. She weighed more than I did. She punched me a dozen times during the 24 hours of her stay, most notably in the stomach and chest. I have refused to see her ever since. It happens...
I am sorry to hear about your friend, hoping all works out and thank you for being a good friend.
Chosen families are better!
Verbal abuse is still abuse. I'm glad you managed to get out of that relationship.
It's looking good...fingers crossed the luck holds out for another 18 hours.
It's been pretty scary, really. But, so far, they haven't found out he's here. 18 hours to go.
True on all counts. And I'm very glad my wife has been 100% in agreement to help.
Yep. We need more shelters for men.
People need to step up --- not enough shelters for male victims. There are only 2 in the entire fucking country.
I truly appreciate it, Larry.
I know it's been hard on him, and he's very grateful a few friends have rallied round to help. Life is tough enough without abuse.
If he'd been a Trumper, he'd be on his own.
Hugs and bisous.
So far, so good. 18 hours to go before he's headed to the East Coast and (hopefully) complete safety.
It certainly does happen, and it's just as inexcusable.
