Cowboy orgies have officially entered the political discourse.In what’s been branded the #RamRanchResistance, an explicit metal song about horny cowboys is being used to troll anti-vax truck drivers in Canada.In January, thousands of truckers rolled into Ottawa to protest vaccine mandates for cross-border truck drivers. Hundreds of drivers calling themselves the “freedom convoy” remain encamped in the city’s downtown core, disrupting daily life for residents.Now the so-called “freedom convoy” is being bombarded with Grant MacDonald’s 2012 song, “Ram Ranch.” Counterprotesters have infiltrated the group’s chat on walkie-talkie app Zello and are blasting the track.Lyrics include:18 more wild cowboys out in the yard! Big, bulging c**ks ever so hard! Orgy in the showers at Ram Ranch! Big, hard throbbing c**ks ramming cowboy butt!According to Katarina, a PhD student at a university in Ottawa and one of the leaders of the #RamRanchResistance, life in Ottawa since the convoy rolled in has “been hell.”“We’re watching destruction of property, harassment, people getting up in locals’ faces and telling them to take their masks off,” she told Rolling Stone.“It’s a deeply conservative belief system infiltrating our city,” she added.

Eric Trump took a break from making macaroni art to go on Fox News last night, where he almost started crying while speaking to Sean Hannity about the recent allegations highlighted by Connecticut U.S. Attorney John Durham, the special counsel appointed under Donald Trump to investigate the FBI’s probing of Russian interference in the 2016 election.On Friday, Durham alleged that a tech executive with ties to the Clinton campaign “exploited” access to White House data by peeking at internet traffic from Trump Tower and the White House in an effort to to find “derogatory” information about the ex-president.“At what point is it acceptable to break into the servers at the White House? That’s the most cherished building in this country that has the most top secrets, everything in this country that runs our government,” Eric, sounding particularly high-pitched, told Hannity.Related: Lara Trump just proved money can’t buy classHe then went on to question why prosecutors weren’t looking into this, concluding that it’s obviously because his father is probably going to win back the presidency in 2024.“Sean, where are the prosecutors right now? The same prosecutors that go after my father every single day for nothing, right? Just because he’s clearly the frontrunner for 2024!”Becoming increasingly more unhinged, Eric then went on to accuse Hillary Clinton of “fraud” and “all sorts of offenses”.

Caitlyn Jenner has continued her campaign against trans athletes who were born male competing in women’s sports, by calling out transgender swimmer Lia Thomas for lacking ‘integrity’. The 72-year-old Olympic legend herself came out as a trans woman in 2015 but has received backlash for her stance against trans athletes who were born male from competing alongside other women. University of Pennsylvania swimmer Thomas, 22, won both the 100 and 200-metre races against Harvard University this month. Her controversial spate of victories prompted the NCAA to review its guidelines for male-to-female trans athletes, but said it would not get involved in the row regarding transgender athletes in college sports. Transgender participation for each non-college sport will now be determined by the policy for each sport’s national governing body. Reacting to the news, Jenner told GB News on Monday: ‘I’m a common sense person. Obviously in the case of Lia Thomas it’s not working.

The EU's top court has ruled that same-sex parents and their children must be recognised as a family in all member states.In a landmark ruling on Tuesday, the European Court of Justice (CJEU) said that if one country acknowledges a parental relationship with a child, then every member state should do the same in order to guarantee the child's right to free movement.The case came before the court after Bulgarian authorities refused to give a birth certificate to the new-born daughter of a same-sex couple on the basis that a child cannot have two mothers.Bulgarian Kalina Ivanova and British Gibraltar-born Jane Jones are both registered as the mothers of Sara, who was born in Spain in 2019.But neither parents are of Spanish descent, meaning citizenship in that country is not allowed and under the British Nationality Act of 1981, Jones cannot transfer British citizenship to her daughter as she was born in Gibraltar.On this basis, Ivanova requested Bulgarian citizenship for her child, which was subsequently rejected since same-sex marriages and partnerships and not legally recognised in Bulgaria.As a result, Sara was left at risk of statelessness, with no access to citizenship, unable to leave her family’s country of residence, Spain, as well as no personal documents, therefore, limiting her access to education, healthcare and social security.The CJEU also ruled that the child should be issued a Bulgarian passport.Speaking on Tuesday following the ruling, Arpi Avetisyan, head of litigation at NGO ILGA-Europe said: "The judgment has brought long-awaited clarification that parenthood established in one EU Member State cannot be discarded by another, under the pretence of protecting the 'national identity'."This is a true

Hungarian MPs passed a law banning the "promotion" of homosexuality or sex reassignment to anyone aged under 18.The controversial anti-LGBT law has been criticised as discriminatory by the European Union and dozens of organisations.The Foundation for Rainbow Families NGO (Szivárványcsaládokért Alapítvány) has welcomed the move by media groups to publish their content."The campaign draws attention to the fact that while rainbow families love, care for, and worry about their children just like all Hungarian families, the state does not give them equal rights," the organisation said in a Facebook post.The #TheSame campaign was launched earlier this month by the Foundation for Rainbow Families to mark International Children’s Rights Day.Organisers say they hope the social media videos -- featuring two speaking soft toys -- will draw attention to the discrimination faced by LGBT+ families and their children."Despite having the same everyday life, children in rainbow families do not have the same rights," the NGO said in a statement."We believe that all families with young children should have equal rights, opportunities, and support."More than 200 billboards and posters -- some in newspapers and magazines -- will also be displayed as part of the effort, as the media groups involved risk sanctions Hungary's media regulator (NMHH).Those found guilty of "promoting" homosexuality to children in Hungary can face fines under the "Children Protection Act".The ruling conservative Fidesz party of Prime Minister Viktor Orban says the law is aimed at fighting paedophilia.But the EU has widely condemned the Children Protection Act, saying it violates fundamental rights and limits sexual education in schools.In July, the European

Finland's former interior minister has gone on trial in Helsinki accused of inciting anti-LGBT+ hate speech.Päivi Räsänen, an MP of the Christian Democrats party, is accused of describing homosexuality as a "disorder of psychosexual development" and labelling homosexuals as "dysfunctional".The charges relate to comments posted on Twitter in 2019 in which she criticised the Finnish Lutheran Church for associating itself with a Gay Pride event.Räsänen accused the church of "elevating shame and sin to a point of pride", according to the indictment seen by AFP.The tweet was accompanied by a picture of a Bible passage describing homosexual acts as "shameful" and "unnatural".Prosecutors say that her remarks are an "affront to the equality and dignity of homosexuals" and have called for the MP to be fined up to €13,000."This statement [...] is likely to provoke contempt, intolerance, and even hatred towards homosexuals", prosecutors added.Bishop Juhana Pohjola is also charged with incitement to hatred for publishing Räsänen's remarks on the website of the Luther Foundation of Finland.The landmark case on hate speech and religious freedoms has been described as "shocking" by Finland's Christian community.The former minister has denied the charges and says she acted in the name of "freedom of expression and religion".Räsänen -- a doctor by profession -- was seen carrying a copy of the Bible in her hand as she arrived at the Helsinki district courtroom on Monday."I hope it will be clear today that I do not wish to offend any group of people, but that it is about saving people for eternal life," she told reporters.The 62-year-old served as Finland's interior minister from 2011 to 2015 and was also chairwoman of the Christian
