Summary
Newt Gingrich blasted a Julia Roberts-led ad encouraging women to vote privately, calling it a sign of the sick values he attributes to Democrats. In a heated exchange with Sean Hannity, he accused the party of promoting dishonesty and moral decay in America, suggesting this reflects a broader erosion of societal integrity. Gingrich, who faced his own scandals, cited Robert F. Kennedy Jr.'s recent split from the Democrats as further proof of disillusionment with what he sees as their corrupt influence.
you heard it here folks… women having autonomy is moral decay… from the people who took away your right to govern your own body.
Seriously, this same bunch has been bitching over women getting the vote, being able to drive, owning land, having a bank account (w/o male approval), no fault divorce, abortion, birth control for decades. Often this was done quietly, or if in a mixed setting, it was done as a “ha ha can’t you take a JOKE?” kind of way.
Now they have stolen abortion rights and in the process the corrupted qons on the “supreme” court indicated they want to do something not only about Teh Gheyz, but also about birth control. And now several of them are being much more open about their hostility to no fault divorce. And unlike in the past, it’s not the geriatrics that were older than the boomers; I hear this shit coming of Gen Z and Gen Y age people…we should believe them when they say this is their intent.
A lot of qons would constantly clutch their pearls and try to get me silenced when I spoke about the xtian taliban. They were only so mad because THEY KNOW IT IS TRUE. The xtian taliban is a thing and other than bullshit doctrinal differences no one outside their little book clubs give a flying fuck about, THEY ARE THE SAME EXACT THING as Islamist extremists. Just because they are not allowed to murder gays and women right now doesn’t mean they get any special points.
Some women would be harmed by their husbands if discovered voting blue. I think those women feel a ringing in their souls when they watch that ad. Neut is grasping for any spin at all “ghwuaaahhh dishonesty!”. If he was aware of the women who’d wear their husbands’ reactions on their faces, he’d never admit it. But I guarantee the mere concept of sparking spousal abuse hasn’t even occurred to him, that he’s not seeing past the “dishonesty” part.
It’s like waving salami in your derpy blind dog’s face but he bites air 90 degrees in the wrong direction. Shit you’d think his smeller’s busted too. How the fuck he manages to use the bathroom without tracking his own shit through the house is a fukkn X-file.
Yeah it has been interesting to see their reaction to this ad, it seems to really have struck a chord. Very telling. They are terrified of the idea of an independent woman. It’s so fucking sad and pathetic.
I mean, he’s right in one way, you certainly ought to be able to talk about who you are voting for without fear. Communication, debate, and choose for yourself. So really the far right are just reaping what they have sown, I don’t see how he can blame the ad.
Women should vote this time because they might lose the right to vote next time. I guarantee that if Trump wins but its clear that many women voted against the wishes of their husband some Project 2025 shit heel is going to come up with the idea that men should be able to vote by proxy for their wives so that they don’t vote wrong and cancel out their husband’s vote.
I mean, he’s right in one way, you certainly ought to be able to talk about who you are voting for without fear.
Absolutely. And if you can’t, you’re in the wrong marriage. If women were free to leave Republican husbands without fear of harm, red-cap affiliation would be a more telling demographic for social isolation and lonliness than it already is.
Our moral backbone, Newt Gingrich:
She (Marianne Gingrich) said Newt moved for the divorce just months after she had been diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis, with her then-husband present.
“He also was advised by the doctor when I was sitting there that I was not to be under stress. He knew,” she said.
Gingrich divorced his first wife, Jackie, as she was being treated for cancer. His relationship with Marianne began while he was still married to Jackie but in divorce proceedings, Marianne said.
The usual line from these assholes goes like “I’m just a flawed human being like everyone else but I’m trying real hard to walk the line”
She’s surprised he did the same shit to her. I mean, what else do you expect?
She’s not a winner, either
All of this was going on in private, while publicly, he was spearheading the vanguard of what has become the modern Christo-fascist movement. “Moral Majority,” he called it. While cheating on his terminally ill wife.
Fucking snake.
He accuses the Democrat party of promoting dishonesty? Jesus fucking Christ. This is a guy who pushed the Big Lie that the 2020 Election was stolen. The sheer hypocrisy. Every accusation a confession.
He doesn’t believe in facts… He believes in what he feels is right. His own words I fuck u not
Throughout his congressional campaign in 1974, Gingrich was having an affair with a young volunteer. An aide who worked with Gingrich throughout the 1970s stated that “it was common knowledge that Newt was involved with other women during his marriage to Jackie.”
…
In September 1980, according to friends who knew them both, Newt visited Jackie in the hospital the day after she had undergone surgery to treat her uterine cancer; once there, Newt began talking about the terms of their divorce, at which point Jackie threw him out of the roomIn 1993, while still married to Marianne, Gingrich began an affair with House of Representatives staffer Callista Bisek, more than two decades his junior.[278] Gingrich was having this affair even as he led the impeachment of Bill Clinton for perjury related to Clinton’s own extramarital affair.[279][128] Gingrich filed for divorce from Marianne in 1999, a few months after she had been diagnosed with multiple sclerosis.

My stepmother was doing her undergrad (and a few years later her law degree) from the University of West Georgia when he was a professor of history there and had started his first congressional campaign. She said literally every woman in school was aware of his affairs with students.
Moral decay in 2024? This is just yet another year of accusations fueled by projection from the right.
Let’s not omit that he got fined $300k for ethics violations in 1997 and was found to have accepted 1.7M in bribes (calling them what they are) from Freddie Mac shortly before Freddie wrecked the economy.
Not to belabor the truism that Gingrich is pure scum, but he’s a relevant point in the argument for an age-cap on voting rights.
Hit 70, you’re done. Go find something else to do, the needs and wants of the Nation are no longer your purview.
Would be nice if he put his money where his mouth is. He’s 81 years old, but I bet he’s still gonna show up Tuesday.
I see what you’re getting at, but we need to be careful here as we’ll be 70 too at some point.
Under that precedent, gen-Alpha conservicans would likely unanimously vote to have us all thrown into the sea to save on healthcare costs or something. Lmao
Yes, and when I and you, and anyone else hits 70, then their time influencing the future is over. That’s a ballgame, folks.
It’s nothing but pure fucking hubris that keeps these antideluvian fossils in their power stations. Society does not benefit. In fact, progress is constrained as a result.
So yeah, we will all be old one day. But that doesn’t mean we’re all destined to be sad old narcissists.
So yeah, we will all be old one day. But that doesn’t mean we’re all destined to be sad old narcissists.
Right! Of course not! My point is that in this case, age isn’t the problem, it’s still just narcissistic power hungry jerks voting. They just so happen to curse us with their longevity.
So taking voting rights away for all after a certain age wouldn’t serve us, but if overall we keep voting in altruistic ways, we can still do a lot of good into our later years.
If you mean they shouldn’t be in office calling the shots for us at that age though, I TOTALLY agree.
I think more people will trend against that with time, and we will kill the “you lean more right with age” myth once and for all. :)
Wishing you a long and prosperous life, BTW. <3
Every accusation is an admission.
If the social integrity of Americans (not all, you know which ones) was in good condition, women would not need to hide their vote due to fear of retaliation.
Newt Ginbitch wants women scared and repressed, wants morals to decay, because if not most women would vote to keep their rights.
So he supports Trump? Well, just wait until we deal with you, Nude.
Gingrich, who cheated on his second wife, then held Democrats responsible for America’s moral degeneration. “I mean, what kind of a totally amoral, corrupt, sick system have the Democrats developed? If you think about it at that level, it is astonishing, the decay," he said, before claiming that the “decay” is why Robert F. Kennedy Jr., who reportedly maintained at least three romantic liaisons outside of his marriage with Cheryl Hines, left the Democratic Party and endorsed former President Donald Trump.
Also Gingrich didn’t deliver that on stage anywhere. I’m getting pissed at headline images that intentionally don’t have to do with the quote.
The man who cheated on his previous wife dying of cancer says other voting for control over their own healthcare are sick. Gotcha.
that’s unfair… in the spirit of fairness I will add that he also cheated on another wife with multiple sclerosis.
Great side by side
This the guy who cheated while his wife was dying of cancer?
Exactly, he’s the perfect one to talk about the moral decay in America and the broader erosion of social integrity: he’s leading the charge in both cases!
But she turned him into a newt!
He didn’t get better.
She certainly didn’t…
Dam, that’s thermonuclear

Naw, that was just a rumor. She had cancer or a tumor and they were fighting over divorce but the papers were served months ago, and she wasn’t on her deathbed.
But, he divorced her, got married again, cheated on #2 while in the midst of the Clinton scandal (talk about family values!), divorced her, got married a third time, and that’s when I quit paying attention to this dude. Dunno if he’s on #4 yet or what.
Needless to say, this dude gives relationship advice like a 6 year old gives tips on replacing a timing belt.
Like, if someone’s spouse is made to be uncomfortable talking about something sensitive to the point that go all sneaky about it, who they voted for is not the problem at all. These guys can’t see the forest for the trees, no wonder they can’t just form a solid lasting relationship
Yeah, he just came into the recovery room to make the final negatiations … you know … like you do
I never actually saw the ad, but something about the way the dude said “Did you make the right choice?” made me lol.
This video is exactly why I am in favor of voting booths over mail-in ballots.
If you are unable to vote in person, then voting should be easy to do early. But we should try hard to get people into the voting booth.
Imagine if the older politicians of both sides of politics retired on time.
I’m much more interested in one side of that equation than the other but yes, that’s a beautiful dream.
I share your view so I agree with the sentiment but I think the facts say otherwise, unfortunately.
Both sides are contributing to the gerontocracy and the problems associated with it.
- If Ruth Bader Ginsberg had retired during Obama’s term, Trump would have had one less Supreme Court Justice.
- Dianne Feinstein wouldn’t let go while in mental decline.
- Biden is doing the same damn thing as Feinstein but with the freaking presidency. He might’ve been the safe bet to take back the white house in 2020 - but couldn’t the Democrats have coughed up someone who isn’t OLDER than Bill Clinton? That’s fucked up IMO.
SCOTUS has nothing to do with age and everything to do with Dems caving over and over.
need to make sure their grandchildren get great jobs at the FAANG corporations while insider trading their way to golden retirement
Man this guy just won’t die. He keeps coming back to fuck up politics over and over again.
He also won’t get better. That witch has a lot to answer for.
I legit wouldn’t be surprised at this point if Qanon was right, but it was just another case of their own ilk blaming others for what they’re already doing.
The entire party is “weird” at this point and refuse to die whilst leading incredibly unhealthy lives. Who’s to say they aren’t up to occult dark-ritual weirdness, mad science, and siphoning lifeforce from kidnapped youth around the world?
(Yes I’m being satirical but also if it had any truth to it, it would TOTALLY be THESE GUYS doing it and blaming it on “the others” amirite?)
