NAM/NAAM Day 15. Hey Donald! Where’s the Annual NAM/NAAM Presidential Proclamation?

Posted on by — Leave a reply

We are halfway through NAM/NAMM and have yet to see the annual NAM/NAM Presidential Proclamation. We’ve gotten one every year for years even during Trump 1. What’s going on?…I’m glad he’s ignoring us. I don’t want the good name of Bastard sullied by his pathetic orange self.  We are messed with enough without his grubby small fingers poking into our business Continue Reading →

NAM/NAAM Day 13. Trump Signs Executive Order: Fostering the Future for American Children and Families. The Evangelical Inclusion

Posted on by — Leave a reply

The EO promises to increase much-needed foster care improvements through taxpayer-funded tax-exempt so-called “faith-based” partnerships with private religious child welfare organizations, churches, and ministries, and to “take actions” of some type (financial?) against individual state government policies/agencies that limit or prohibit “faith-based” groups from participating….IMO, this is a poison pill that will be digested unnoticed, since “faith- based “relationships” in foster care and adoption are common, and the public does not understand the underbelly.

NAAM Day 14: Don’t Mourn, Organize

Anyway, during NAAM and beyond I plan to write some about Trump and his Criminal Family, incompetent nutbar associates, Project 2025 and any other malevolent plan that is exposed, and how they will impact adoptee rights and adoption in general if go unheeded Continue Reading →

NAAM Day 8: What the Hell, Donald! Free IVF for All?

Posted on by — Leave a reply

I was unaware that Trump has promised “free universal IVF treatments.” I do remember, however,  his claim to be the “Father of IVF” which brings up the disturbing image of him whacking off into a kinky glass tube (or a sock) to pictures of Alina Habba or Laura Loomer. Continue Reading →

NAAM Day 6: The Barbarians Are Coming: A Brief Mediation on Art, Power, and the Coming Dark Days

Posted on by — Leave a reply

Although “The Barbarians are Coming” takes place in ancient Rome, it is a timely narrative of our own dysfunctional stagnant government, of our own politicians,  their hanger-on, and our legacy media, where wealth, spectacle, special interests, favoritism, and cruelty trump (excuse me!) humanity, compassion, reason, kindness, and ethics. “Ithaca” takes us on a meaningful journey to a kinder ending.

National Adoption Month Presidential Proclamation 2020: Adoption and Abortion Again

Posted on by — 1 Comment ↓

The “pro-life’ forced birth mob as usual, wet-dreamed themselves. Lifenews.com headlined: President Trump Issues Proclamation Promoting Adoption as an Alternative to Abortion” giving the impression that the proclamation was specifically about abortion, which it was not. Numerous other  Evangelical. Catholic Christian and anti-abortion news outlets as well as social media drones parroted adoption as a solution to abortion. I think they just re-wrote the White House press release to make it look like it came from them. Continue Reading →

Framed in Bigotry and Discrimination: A Look at Trump’s Executive Order: Strengthening the Child Welfare System for America’s Children

Posted on by — Leave a reply

The emphasis in the Executive Order is not some abstract improvement, but the creation of a robust evangelical-coded “faith-based” equalization in child welfare. The EO promises to increase much-needed child welfare improvement not through government initiative, but through taxpayer-funded tax-exempt so-called “faith-based” partnerships with private religious child welfare organizations and corporations including churches, para-churches, and ministries. Moreover, the EO promises “faith-based “foster and adoption recruitment.” The suggests nonsensically that the lack of “faith-based partnerships” keeps children stuck in state foster care when they could be transferred to the Christian adoption market if that market were more open and available.

Donald Trump’s Lawyer Jay Sekulow is an Adopteephobic Bigot

Posted on by — Leave a reply

I know I’ve written about this before, but it can’t be said enough:  JAY SEKULOW IS AN ADOPTEEPHOBIC BIGOT. He believes we have no right to our OBCs and other records. But besides this general disability, he has claimed we are conniving dupes and baby killers. Yes, according to Sekulow, the adoptee rights; movement is a front for “abortion advocates.” Continue Reading →

More Swill from FRC’s Tony Perkins: Trump saves adoptees and their families

Posted on by — Leave a reply

Perkins goes beyond his usual gasbigoty routine. He praises Trump for Christianizing adoption. Keeping adoption safe from Satan. That is, queer folks, single women, atheists, and people with weird religions or lifestyles while lily-white-Christian worthies such as the couple with Asian child posted with his op-ed sit in the back of the bus, Continue Reading →

National Adoption (Awareness) Month: Trump chimes in on God’s plans

Posted on by — Leave a reply

I am acquainted virtually with no one in the adoption reform movement and certainly not adoptee rights/equality activism that does not hate NA(A)M. It is universally met, depending on one’s place on the adoptee ladder of rage and pain, with anger, ridicule, sarcasm, laughter, eye-rolling, disgust, grief, and trigger warnings. Continue Reading →
