One Million Moms: We’re Thrilled ‘The New Normal’ Mentioned Us Even If It’s An Abomination
One Million Moms is thrilled “The New Normal” — the hit show they are trying desperately to get NBC to cancel — mentioned them last week. But even as they lovingly laud the show’s affections — purely platonic, not, you know, homosexual — toward them, they continue to warn good Christians everywhere to never, ever watch the show. Because God will strike you down, perhaps? Or perhaps you’ll turn into a pillar of salt, (which, as it turns out, isn’t bad for you, according to biblical faux historian David Barton.)
Watch: ‘The New Normal’ Explains The Sanctity Of Traditional Marriage
“Last week’s episode of ‘The New Normal’ referenced One Million Moms,” One Million Moms (OMM) states on their website. “Even though they attempted to poke fun, the show actually made One Million Moms look good.”
This is what One Million Moms thinks makes them look good:
https://youtube.com/watch?v=LztzHtQWpgg%3Fversion%3D3%26hl%3Den_US
OK…
“The conservative grandmother [played by Ellen Barkin]Â chose three girls who are raised in traditional families who share the same beliefs she does to help her cancel her granddaughter’s fake wedding. She tells them, ‘I need the help of every one of you future One Million Moms.’ Â By the way, thanks for the free publicity!”
They have got to be kidding.
They’re not.
“Any conservatives that may have briefly checked out the show primarily to see how bad it is who have never heard of One Million Moms just found out about our organization on their dime,” OMM adds — or, in other words, “if you peeked in the name of the Lord it’s OK!”
“If the writers thought this would get us off their backs they are sadly mistaken. We will continue our attempts to have this program canceled because it goes against Biblical principles and Christian values.”
And, of course, who else would good Christians trust but One Million Moms, the email harvesting arm of the Southern Poverty Law Center-certified anti gay hate group, the American Family Association, the folks who say gays “are Nazis.”
“The grandmother does misrepresent conservatives at times since her character is not consistent in her actions, but focusing on last night’s episode she was pretty accurate.”
And by consistent, One Million Moms means that all 50,000+ of their members (per their Facebook page) don’t eat shellfish, don’t work on the sabbath, support slavery, don’t wear poly-cotton blends, and stone family members when the Bible calls for it, right?
“She stated marriage is sacred and between one man and one woman.”
Actually, OMM, the Bible says marriage is sacred between one man and as many wives as he can afford, but we get that times are tough.
“She was upset that her granddaughter was having a ‘real’ pretend wedding. They didn’t actually go through with it when the nine-year-old girl found out the ten-year-old boy had cheated on her the day before by kissing another girl.
“The grandmother is not pleased with the pretend wedding and says that marriage is not for children or homosexuals; next it will be for dogs,” One Million Moms adds — totally without compunction, totally without a second thought, totally without blinking. Even the Bible doesn’t equate same-sex marriage or homosexuality with bestiality.
“She does make the statements that, ‘Marriage is a sacred vow. Marriage must be kept sacred. Homosexuals are trying to redefine marriage. Marriage is to be taken seriously’.”
And of course she does. She — Ellen Barkin’s character — who, probably like many members of anti-gay hate groups, married a closeted man who cheated on her, divorced him, and sleeps with strangers in hotels. Yes, let’s applaud her hypocrisy, One Million Moms!
“Chick-fil-A was also mentioned when the grandmother said she was going to eat there, and the homosexuals’ assistant said she missed Chick-fil-A. The two homosexual men just shook their heads saying no that they were not eating at this particular restaurant.
“One Million Moms continues to discourage our supporters from watching the program to insure we do not help the show’s ratings. The producer, open homosexual Ryan Murphy, is playing a game so One Million Mom supporters will tune in. Murphy even stated in an interview after our campaign was launched that our supporters should watch because One Million Moms will be represented during the program. One Million Moms records all major networks and will continue to monitor the program to keep you informed.”
Gotta love that: “open homosexual Ryan Murphy.”
“The program ends with one of the homosexual men proposing to his partner, and he asks, ‘Will you be my husband?'”
Horrors!
“Clearly, NBC’s “The New Normal” is attempting to desensitize America and our children.” [Bolding theirs]
One Million Moms, your children are “desensitized.” The children of today are supportive of same-sex marriage,a and so many of the things you’re trying to teach them to hate. And in ten years, they will hate you. Because you taught them how.

U.S. Rep. Mike Collins, Republican of Georgia, is under fire after praising University of Mississippi students, some wearing American flag outfits, mocking a Black woman protester by making monkey sounds and shouting, “lock her up.”
“Counter-protestors at the University of Mississippi made racist remarks — including monkey noises and comparisons to Lizzo — towards a Black woman who was part of a planned protest against the war in Gaza,” Los Angeles Magazine reported Friday.
Collins, who tried to defund Vice President Kamala Harris’ Office in November, declared his support for the counter-protesters at “Ole Miss,” as the University is called.
“Ole Miss taking care of business,” he wrote on social media, atop the video (below).
The counter-protesters, as evidenced in the video, appear to be mostly white.
A large number of users on the social media platform X responded, accusing the Congressman and the counter-protesters of racism.
“When is the inevitable ‘I don’t have a racist bone in my body’ tweet coming,” wondered Rewire News Group editor-at-large Imani Gandy.
“Which part is your favorite, Mike?” asked Fred Wellman, the former executive director of The Lincoln Project. “Is it the white kid acting like a monkey at the black woman or the white security guy acting like she’s a threat? I’m trying to figure out which flavor of racism has you all excited the most?”

Harvard Law Cyberlaw Clinic clinical instructor Alejandra Caraballo responded to the Georgia GOP congressman, “Thanks for confirming you’re a massive racist piece of sh*t.”
Mississippi Free Press news editor Ashton Pittman wrote: “Rep. Mike Collins, R-Georgia, praises a video showing a University of Mississippi frat boy dancing like a monkey and making monkey noises near a Black woman student who was protesting for Palestine while other frat boys chant ‘lock her up.'”
In a separate post describing a separate video taken of the same group Pittman wrote: “Frat bros at @OleMiss chant, ‘Lizzo! Lizzo!’ and shout, ‘F**k you fatass, f**k you b*tch’ at a Black woman who was protesting for Palestine. Do people really think these counterprotestors are doing it to support Jews?”
Journalist John Harwood did not mince words, writing, “Congressman proud of the racism.”
“Okay, Mike. We get it,” wrote podcast host, documentary director, and author W. Kamau Bell. “You want to be famous for being a racist. Fine. I’ll help you become a famous racist. You’re welcome.”
The original video is here.

Caution: the video is disturbing.

READ MORE: Noem Heads to Mar-a-Lago After Branding Kids She Ministered in Church ‘Little Tyrants’
Amid more damning revelations from her soon-to-be released book, embattled South Dakota Republican Governor Kristi Noem will head to Mar-a-Lago this weekend as ex-president Donald Trump auditions potential vice presidential picks in front of high-dollar donors. Noem was also slated to attend a Republican fundraiser in Colorado this weekend but it was canceled over alleged safety concerns after news broke she had bragged about shooting her 14-month old dog.
While Noem’s shooting to death of her wirehaired pointer, Cricket, which she detailed in the book, is still making headlines overnight a new revelation made news: Noem falsely claims in her book she met with North Korean dictator Kim Jong-un.
A spokesperson for Noem “seemed to concede that the Kim story was false Thursday night,” and notified her publisher, Politico’s Ryan Lizza reported in his exclusive.
But less noticed appears to be the actual text of Noem’s false story, in which she brands children she ministered in church “little tyrants,” and compared them to the murderous North Korean dictator.

“Through my tenure on the House Armed Services Committee,” Noem wrote, according to Politico, “I had the chance to travel to many countries to meet with world leaders. I remember when I met with North Korean dictator Kim Jong Un. I’m sure he underestimated me, having no clue about my experience staring down little tyrants (I’d been a children’s pastor, after all).”
CNBC reported this week Trump “will mingle with potential vice presidential running mates and wealthy Republican donors at the Republican National Committee’s spring donor retreat. The meetings are likely to act as informal tryouts for a short list of politicos in the running to join the Trump ticket.”
The list of Republican “special guests” includes U.S. Senators Marco Rubio, Tim Scott, and J.D. Vance, Rep. Elise Stefanik, North Dakota Governor Doug Burgum, and South Dakota Governor Kristi Noem.
Also expected to attend are House Speaker Mike Johnson, U.S. Reps. Byron Donalds of Florida and Wesley Hunt of Texas, former GOP presidential candidate Vivek Ramaswamy, and other elected Republicans along with RNC co-chair Lara Trump.

NBC News, which says Rep. Donalds is also under consideration, on Friday added there will be “a fundraising retreat that could serve as a screening session” for potential vice presidential running mates.
Meanwhile, the Jefferson County, Colorado Republican Party chair announced a fundraising dinner Noem was slated to attend was canceled after threats were made, The Denver Post reports.
“We understood there was a planned organized protest outside of the hotel, led by Progress Now,” Nancy Pallozzi said. “I felt that our event would be negatively impacted, and we could not take the risk that those who made threats would cause physical harm.”
Over the weekend independent 2024 presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. spoke at a fundraiser for a far-right anti-government group in Erie County, New York – a slice of the country that had a large proportion of residents arrested and charged for crimes related to the January 6 insurrection. Kennedy, a conspiracy theorist and vaccine denialist, increasingly is embracing the far-right.
“That group, Constitutional Coalition of New York State, has founders who not only have ties to Donald Trump but are also connected to the stop-the-steal movement through their activist network, which includes groups that had a presence at the Capitol on Jan. 6,” The Daily Beast reported Friday. “It’s yet another instance of Kennedy—who is mounting one of the most well-funded third-party presidential threats in decades—serving as a peculiar bridge between his own anti-establishment movement and Trump’s.”
The Southern Poverty Law Center includes the Constitutional Coalition of New York State (CCNYS) on its page of anti-government groups. Political Research Associates, which detailed the high proportion of January 6 residents arrested and charged, included the Constitutional Coalition of New York State in its February report on “The Rise of the Far Right in Western New York.”

“If you don’t think the government is lying to you, you’re not paying attention,” Kennedy told attendees at the CCNYS fundraiser, The Buffalo News reports.
“CCNYS founders Nick and Nancie Orticelli are also affiliated with the Watchmen, a nearby militia who Nick has encouraged his social media followers to join. The Watchmen had several members at the Capitol on Jan. 6, and one member, Pete Harding, is still facing charges for violent entry and disorderly conduct on Capitol grounds,” The Daily Beast noted. “Nancie Orticelli has also hosted the Watchmen’s founder, Charles Pellien, on her weekly radio show on several occasions.”
One of Kennedy’s goals in traveling to New York was to get on the ballot for the November presidential election. Various polls show him taking votes from both President Joe Biden and ex-president Donald Trump, but Kennedy currently has only qualified to be on the ballot in three states, Utah, Michigan and Hawaii, the newspaper reported.
But The Washington Post on Thursday reported The American Independent Party of California, which has a history of “far-right ties,” and “backed segregationist and former Alabama governor George Wallace in 1968, nominated Kennedy for president.”
Kennedy “said this week that he has qualified to be on the ballot in California and will accept the nomination of the American Independent Party, which has a history of associating itself with far-right figures and individuals who have expressed racist views.”
Some news reports and RFK Jr. himself say the Trump campaign was actively courting Kennedy, attempting to convince him to consider being the ex-president’s 2024 vice presidential running mate.
“That MAGA dalliance with Kennedy could be coming back to bite the Trump campaign, some Republicans close to the former president worry,” The Daily Beast also reported.
“’They can only blame themselves,’ a Trump-aligned strategist told The Daily Beast, requesting anonymity to speak candidly about private conversations about the risk Kennedy poses, ‘because they cozied up to him and thought it was funny.’”
