Maga Republicans launched Nuclear Family Month to dump on Pride Month, and the internet had no time for their petty bigotry – 21 top takedowns
In the spirit of ‘But when is Straight Pride Month’, US Republicans have thrown their toys right out of the pram and launched Nuclear Family Month to try and overshadow LGBTQ+ Pride Month.
Newsflash, bigots – a nuclear family is just a unit that consists of two parents and one or more children who live together… including same-sex couples.
The world’s most famous fifth-place swimmer, Riley Gaines, was on board – naturally.
In Tennessee, we recognize June as Nuclear Family Month.

Good to see he has his priorities “straight”.
In an effort to combat Pride Month, Tennessee Governor Bill Lee (R) has signed into law that June will be “Nuclear Family Month”.
Do you think the people of Tennessee are glad that he is focused on this when is state is failing?

“ in my state there are only certain types of people that do certain things that I like that matter!” seems like Trump has made him very comfortable. Happy pride Tennessee!

Honestly, such a strange way to rebuke pride… Because a nuclear family doesn’t exclude queer people. This is so dumb lol https://t.co/J71x4mJPRS

You know what's "God's design?" Loving your neighbor. Caring for the sick. Feeding the kids. Visiting the prisoners. Welcoming the immigrants. You know, all the stuff Bill Lee thinks is woke commie bullshit. https://t.co/UNKI3NaMlB
