Representative Glenn Grothman represents Wisconsin’s 6th Congressional District, now serving in his 5th term having first been elected in 2014.  Prior to serving in Congress he was the Assistant Majority Leader in the Wisconsin State Senate and prior to that in the State Assembly.  He sits on the Oversight and Accountability Committee and is Chair of the Subcommittee on National Security, the Border, and Foreign Affairs.  He also serves on the Education and the Workforce Committee and the Budget Committee.

Discussion began with Pride Month as June was a month where the Biden administration took the promotion of LGBTQIA+ to levels never seen before.  There was a picnic at the White House, the donning of “pride” flags, and finally a transgender influencer going topless at the picnic with minor children in attendance.

Representative Grothman described this as “irresponsible” as he noted that in Europe it appears they’re backing away from this trend.  They’re realizing the problems that go along with the transgender aspect such as in sports and the restroom issues.  Also, they realize that the more this gets pushed, the more people that adopt this lifestyle.  In other words, it’s being promoted in a positive fashion.

Representative Grothman covered a lot of ground as Jim had him comment on the following and much more including:

  • The Equality Act (HR-15 & S-5) and whether he believes “the ship can be righted” on this issue. 
  • The case of Christian web designer Lorie Smith.
  • The censuring of Adam Schiff.
  • The Biden family investigations.
  • Cocaine found at the White House.  Should this be investigated?
  • The Southwest border problem.
