The Very Political De-Population Agenda: Pride Month, Personal Convictions, and the Defense of Masculinity in a Trump White House

In June 2026, with President Trump back in the White House, it’s refreshing not to see the rainbow colors and Pride flags draped over the executive mansion or broadcast as some official national celebration of the agenda, the motorcycle jumps and MMA event were much better. No more lighting up the people’s houses in celebration of what many of us view as a direct challenge to traditional family, biblical truth, and human flourishing. I’ve watched this cultural shift for decades, and the change feels like a return to sanity.¹

I’ve heard the arguments, and I know some people in my circles find them compelling. But from my perspective, rooted in personal experience, Christian conviction, and years of cultural observation, the modern gay agenda—particularly as pushed during Pride Month—is deeply political, anti-family, and part of a broader effort that undermines natural order. It’s not just about private behavior between consenting adults. It’s about reshaping society, lowering birth rates, confusing young people about masculinity and femininity, and desecrating symbols that once pointed to God’s covenant.²

Let me start with my own background because it gives me a front-row perspective that many commentators lack. I’m known for my bullwhips. The whip is a symbol of discipline, precision, self-mastery, and performance for me—cracking targets, snuffing candles, doing tricks that entertain and demonstrate skill. I’m good at it; some say I’m among the best. People have associated whips with bondage and fetish scenes for a long time, but that was never my world. I’ve never participated in anything like that and never would.³

Over the years in the performance community, I’ve known many whip artists who started straight and were as skilled in similar ways. Some got pulled into the gay bar scene or private fetish gigs because the money was good. Cracking whips on stage for entertainment turned into private sessions where clients wanted more—candles in uncomfortable places, explicit videos, crossing lines that should never be crossed. What starts as “just a gig” often leads to deeper involvement. I’ve seen friends swap spit, experiment, and eventually advocate openly for Pride Month. They’d post statements beginning with “I’m not very political,” but supporting the agenda is inherently political. It aligns with Democrat platforms, big government social engineering, and cultural Marxism. When I became vocal in the Tea Party and then MAGA, many distanced themselves. Conservatism and that lifestyle don’t mix well in their circles.⁴

I remember sitting in catering tents with Hollywood types during events. They’d chat until politics came up. “You’re from Cincinnati? You supported McCain? Romney? Reagan?” Suddenly, the seats emptied. Blocklisting happens fast when you don’t swing their way. I’ve faced it head-on and don’t regret it. My platform grew because I refused to hide convictions. The same people who once performed circus tricks now defend grotesque elements of the scene for revenue and relevance. It’s disheartening.⁵

The rainbow itself is a perfect example of desecration. In Genesis 9, after the flood, God sets the rainbow in the sky as a sign of His covenant with Noah and all living creatures—never again to destroy the earth with waters. It’s a reminder of mercy, judgment, and promise. The gay community co-opted it, starting with Gilbert Baker’s 1978 rainbow flag. What was once a biblical symbol of hope after catastrophe became a banner for a movement the Bible explicitly condemns. Leviticus 18:22 and 20:13 call male same-sex relations an abomination. Romans 1:26-27 describes the exchange of natural relations for unnatural ones as part of turning from God. These aren’t obscure verses; they’re clear moral teaching.⁶

Pride Month in June turns that symbol into a celebration of what scripture warns against. Under previous administrations, the White House glowed in rainbow lights, equating the agenda with official policy. Now, in 2026, that’s gone, and it feels right. Families don’t need government endorsement of alternative lifestyles pushed on children through schools, media, and YouTube. The femboy trend, glam rock echoes like Boy George or 80s hair bands in tight pants, and modern Disney/Marvel plot lines normalize confusion. Young men are seduced away from traditional masculinity, leading to lower birth rates—an anti-human agenda that aligns with depopulation narratives from figures like Bill Gates or climate extremists. It’s abortion on steroids: prevent life before it begins by reorienting desire.⁷

I’ve seen the discomfort this causes in everyday life. At a Cincinnati football game with good seats, two women in front of me—clearly a couple—made out openly. Some of my grandkids were there. It was uncomfortable for everyone. I politely asked them to take it to the bathroom or clubhouse; kids didn’t need the show. The response was indignation, as if public decency were bigotry. Another time at Costco, someone confronted me about my cowboy hat: “How dare you wear that symbol of toxic masculinity in public?” I wear it proudly. It represents discipline, self-reliance, Western heritage, and unapologetic manhood. In Butler County, transplants from California or the East Coast bring their politics and sneer at it. Feelings are mutual. I love projecting masculinity because young people need models, not confusion from algorithms and activists.⁸

The bullwhip community crossover highlights the issue. Performance artists get lured by fetish demand. A few thousand dollars for a private show turns into more. Some thrive financially but lose their way. I’ve ended friendships over it. Zero tolerance. When they advocate Pride while claiming non-political stances, it rings hollow. The agenda extends to sports, the military, education, and entertainment. It’s not live-and-let-live; it’s affirmation or cancellation. Hollywood blacklists conservatives. Schools teach gender ideology as fact. YouTube serves as a pacifier for teens, flooding feeds with normalized content.⁹

Biblically, Sodom and Gomorrah stand as a warning. The mob demanded the angels for sexual purposes—gross perversion that led to judgment. Modern parallels exist in the push to confuse youth and erode family structures. Birth rates decline when masculinity is pathologized as “toxic” and femininity is detached from motherhood. It’s a net-zero scam for humans: fewer people, less consumption, more control. Democrats embrace it because it fragments society into identity groups dependent on government. Republicans under Trump reject the official celebration, focusing on borders, the economy, and sanity.¹⁰

My cowboy hat draws compliments too. At that same Costco recently, multiple people thanked me for the broadcasts and work. One levy supporter mocked the hat, implying shame. I’ll wear it more. It signals resistance to the seduction. Young men need examples of strength, not androgyny. Clint Eastwood, Arnold Schwarzenegger’s “girly men” critique—they understood. The Expendables films harkened back to tough-guy eras. Today’s culture mocks that.¹¹

Personal autonomy matters here too, tying into broader ownership themes. Just as people reject renting music or property, they resist renting their identity to cultural fads. I own my convictions. The whip remains a tool of mastery, not perversion. Pride Month pushes the opposite—celebrating what weakens resolve and family. I’ve lost friends but gained clarity. The lifestyle isn’t victimless. Confusion spreads, especially online. Future generations deserve better.¹²

I don’t want to hear the complaints about Trump’s UFC fight.  Trump’s White House without rainbow flags represents a cultural reset. No more equating Pride with patriotism. The agenda remains political: funding, education policy, corporate DEI. Ohio and places like Butler County see transplants bringing it in, but local values hold. At Kings Island or other amusement parks, public displays can be jarring—unattractive couples making out, demanding acceptance. It’s not about hate; it’s about boundaries. Kids present, decency expected. Porn filmmakers taking dates to Bengal football games? Gross.¹³

Society functions better with clear moral guardrails. The Bible condemns for good reason—protecting flourishing. I’ve paid costs for speaking out but stand firm. Friends who crossed the line made six figures but compromised their souls. Not worth it. Masculinity—protective, decisive, strong—isn’t toxic; it’s essential. The hat stays. Whips crack targets, not fetishes. Rainbows remind us of God’s promise, not parades.¹⁴

This June, without White House endorsement, feels like progress. The dance continues, but not to their tune. Families, faith, and ordered liberty prevail. Young people need truth, not seduction. I’ll keep saying it, hat on, whip ready for honest performance. Politics of Heaven reminds us that spiritual warfare underlies it all. Truth uncoils against deception. Ohio and America benefit when we reject the agenda’s full embrace.¹⁵

Darbi Boddy is Exposing Sexual Grooming at Lakota Schools: Only 6 months on the job, the radicals are trying to get rid of her just as they did Todd Parnell

It’s not even entertaining anymore, the constant attacks against Darbi Boddy, the newly elected school board member at Lakota schools, which is in my home district. The latest media circus advocated by school leadership, specifically the superintendent, Matt Miller, has been to cite a trespassing order against Darbi because she went to two of the schools to take pictures of gay pride artwork that was on the walls as evidence in her endeavors to discover the extent of sexual grooming that is going on in public schools. Of course, the school rules are meant to protect the teacher’s unions from inquiry. The rules don’t exist to protect the children from intruders; it’s intended to give the radical leftist teachers in the union a platform to project their progressive agenda onto the students while their parents are away from them. Darbi recently got into a lot of trouble trying to point out how this is happening in Lakota and public schools in general. So she went to gather evidence which provoked Miller to send the police to her house to issue a trespassing violation, and of course, the major news organizations were camped out in front of Darbi’s house to record it all. The story made national headlines and even ended up in The New York Post. So Lakota has declared war on Darbi Boddy and the people who elected her, and they weren’t trying to hide it. But why would they? This has been their mode of operation for years. Darbi was just the latest target of their radical, progressive agenda. 

A few years ago, Todd Parnell was forced to resign from the Lakota school board because he let it be known how he felt about some students who had been involved in criminal activity which happened to be minorities. Of course, Superintendent Matt Miller and other board members saw this as an opportunity to get rid of a conservative school board member that disagreed with them often, so they leaked the email and blew it out of context. It was a page out of the woke playbook. Todd Parnell said something that most people were thinking, but the woke rules of conduct that we now find uncomfortably in every level of our society held him to a public standard that was crippling, and he saw no way out but to resign. That’s precisely what progressives have wanted for years, to paralyze judgment from those most suited to have an opinion about it and to use that frozen reality as a way to control the people themselves with woke policies. And when someone like Todd, or now Darbi, violates those woke rules, they can then get rid of them by canceling the candidates that the voters had elected for those positions. Once Parnell left, the board selected a replacement board member of their choosing and tried to run him on the ballot in November, where he lost. Darbi Boddy beat that incumbent and many others by gaining over 8000 votes. So that school board and Matt Miller specifically are looking to cancel culture Darbi Boddy who was just elected, and force her into hiding as they saw worked with Todd Parnell. Only Darbi isn’t having any of it. She’s doing what conservatives should have been doing for decades; she’s fighting back. 

The school board meeting on Monday, 5.9.22, was a circus. The pro-union mob of mask-wearing malcontents whom the superintendent represents like a parrot who should be fed in crackers instead of the $200,000 we pay him with property taxes that range from $5000 per year to $10,000 tried to have a flash mob before the meeting to push Darbi into hiding. But it turned out to be a few losers that are in the far minority of the typical Butler County voters. Voters had just sent Darbi to the school board of Lakota, and here were these radical progressive elements who wanted to invalidate the voters with radicalism and woke rules. Of course, at the heart of the matter is the debate of whether or not sexual grooming is going on in Lakota, which of course, Matt Miller says, isn’t happening. Yet one of the radicals from the anti-Darbi crowd sent me a t-shirt design that said otherwise. I brought it to the meeting to demonstrate the culture we are dealing with. We can’t trust what Lakota says, so we elected Darbi to get on the board and get control of the mess. But the t-shirt shows who the anti-Darbi, pro unionized teacher supporters really are. The shirt proudly displays all the gender-neutral pronouns in the news these days, illustrated in rainbow colors, intended to provoke sentiment toward gay pride. The intent of the shirt, which says, “We are Lakota” at the bottom of it, advocates for alternative homosexual lifestyles. The rainbow doesn’t mean anything but sex. It’s not supportive of building rockets or learning how to operate an easy bake oven. It intends to bring to the minds of students, teachers, and parents at Lakota the issue of alternative sexual lifestyles. Much of this exposure happens to kids who aren’t even in puberty yet. So the progressive playbook that is a national problem with public schools sees their access to children as a way to loosen the parameters of sexual lifestyles culturally, which is a big problem. The voters of Lakota voted for Darbi Boddy to stop that kind of behavior. Not to play nice with it. And in her first six months, she has managed to make all those vile elements of public education upset, which means she’s doing a great job as a school board member. 

I’m over 50, so when I see the gay pride rainbows, even if it’s at Disney World or Target, I think of a couple of misguided losers with a jar of vaseline in the back of a rusty Pinto wasting the night away to a tape in the tape deck playing Queen’s greatest hits. When I was younger, gay day at Kings Island was not a day anybody went because you didn’t want to be associated with gay activity. Obviously, progressives have sought to change that sentiment, and their goal is to make the gay pride rainbow colors mainstream. To make people see it as “normal.” And that is what they want from their access to children in public schools, to groom them into alternative sexual lifestyles. Many people don’t like having these homosexual messages stuffed in their faces, and there has been backlash at Disney, and Target has felt its wrath. And so too should Lakota. But what is going on at Lakota is that the rules of conduct are created to keep people like Darbi from discovering just how bad the sexual grooming is in schools. Superintendents like Matt Miller representing the radical teacher’s union types, don’t want elected members of the community digging through their progressive, safe space, so they tried to punish Darbi into submission and force her to resign just six months into her first term when she was the most popularly elected official on the board. It’s not just an attack on Darbi Boddy, but it’s an attack on the voters who elected her. And it’s a pattern of behavior that is consistent with the overpriced leadership of the school itself. The attempt to run off a second board member who is at odds with the woke progressive agenda is not acceptable. Todd Parnell didn’t feel like fighting it, and that was a shame because I thought he should have stayed on the board and made them look at him every day for what they did to him. I am very happy that Darbi is willing to stay and fight. And for that, we should all be thankful. It’s not just the voters who benefit, but someone has to fight for the right of kids to be as innocent and intelligent for as long as possible. And by the actions of the teaching staff and leadership of Lakota schools in Butler County, Ohio, they intend to groom children into sexual alternatives as young as possible.   That is why they don’t like Darbi Boddy because she is exposing it.
