The Inner Circle

The Daily Beast published a must-read article on Saturday with the title "Inside the Trump White House’s Fight Over LGBT Rights" (link here).

The findings in the piece are worrisome. The article notes, for instance, that the power of pro-LGBT Ivanka Trump and her husband Jared Kushner "has been dramatically exaggerated."

In contrast, the rabidly homophobic Attorney General Jeffrey Sessions wields much more power on these issues as do LGBT-hating organizations like the Family Research Council, the Liberty Counsel, and the American Family Association.

These anti-LGBT factions have much more power than their opponents and can more successfully bring Trump around to their position. The bottom line is, as the article states, "in the absence of stronger personal convictions on LGBT issues, [Donald] Trump may feel bound to pay back social conservatives for his electoral victory."

In short, LGBT Americans will be thrown under the proverbial bus.

As for LGBT rights in the next four years, the article concludes by saying it's difficult to know what will happen: "when it’s not even clear who’s driving, it’s hard to say where the car is going."

One thing is for certain: LGBT rights will be weakened considerably when Trump signs the disgraceful First Amendment Defense Act (FADA), which he has promised many times to do. This will legalize many forms of blatant anti-LGBT discrimination and badly hurt every single LGBT American.

We will officially become second-class citizens, separate but not equal, and much worse off that we were under any previous Republican administration in the last half century.

The Lumberjack's Blowjobs

Caspar aka Scott has been featured on this blog twice before in solo jerkoff shoots (link here and here). He's back today with two new blowjob scenes. Since he dumped the glasses and grew his big fuzzy beard, the 6'4 stud is considerably hotter in my opinion.

The originals for these photos are larger than they appear below and total more than three hundred fifty images from two different shoots.

Convenient Pawns?

The Guardian published an interesting op-ed on Saturday with the headline "The story of the week is Trump, Russia and the FBI. The rest is a distraction" (link here).

A lot of news was circulating last week about scandals involving the increasingly chaotic Trump White House. It's quite possible some of those scandals were deliberately ignited to distract attention from the most serious one of all: the potentially illegal coordination with Russian intelligence during the campaign.

In short, Donald Trump and his government want you talking and reading about anything else besides that.

This is not the first time Trump has whipped up scandals, often via Twitter, to divert attention away from something much more damaging. When the "pussy grab" recording surfaced during the campaign, for instance, Trump almost immediately ignited several Twitter tirade scandals to divert voter attention.

Some of the scandals last week may also have been diversion techniques. Take, for example, the story that blew up when the Trump White House barred major news outlets from a media briefing (details here). This happened concurrently to another scandal Trump had been creating when he declared in speeches that, for all intents and purposes, anything negative about him was "fake news" and then labeled the press as an "enemy of the people," using similar wording to that of both Adolf Hitler and Josef Stalin.

Another scandal was created when the Trump administration broke its promise and reverse President Obama's protections for transgender school students (details here). Was that betrayal, which generated voluminous media coverage, another attempt to divert attention away from the Russia scandal?

The result of all this is that LGBT Americans could be pawns that Trump will shaft when he needs to divert media attention away from a damaging scandal. A test of this theory could come when Trump signs the disgraceful "First Amendment Defense Act," which allows for open and unfettered discrimination against LGBT Americans.

Will Trump shaft us when he's desperately hoping people won't notice he's done something else?

Joey

Joey here looks like he could be Matthew McConaughey's kid brother. He stands 6'2, weighs 200 pounds, and was in his mid-twenties when these photos were taken. They were actually shot in 2004 but not released until just the other day. Joey apparently only ever did two solo jerkoff scenes and then left porn behind

The originals for these images are larger than they appear below and have been collected together with shots from the other shoot Joey did in 2005. The complete collection totals three dozen photos and can be downloaded in a free zipped folder here.

The Huckster

The New Republic published a short article this week (link here) about how Donald Trump shares some of the same techniques as America's most notorious fraud artists, men like P.T. Barnum, Charles Ponzi, and Bernie Madoff.

I have long called Trump a con artist, long before I started writing about politics on this blog, and I certainly was not alone. In the real world, I have considerable experience researching fraudsters and hucksters, and they have traits I recognized in Trump some years back.

One of the most succinct pieces I ever read about Trump the swindler was published in 2015 by Time magazine when they chronicled how Trump ran his fraudulent "Trump University" (link here). It's absolutely worth a read if you have not seen the piece already

Many of the same techniques he used to hoodwink suckers with Trump University were also used when he was on the campaign trail.

This is the reason many people like me never believed his attempts to paint himself as pro-LGBT. The man has a long history of conning people with lies.

He conned people in business. And then he moved on to conning people in politics. It started with his big lies about the Central Park Five and President Obama's place of birth, from which he began to build his platform of deceit.

LGBT people tricked by Trump are part of his long parade of victims. Fortunately, most LGBT people saw him for the fraud that he was and did not vote for him.

For those still being fooled, I feel sorry for them. Learning you've been scammed is never easy.

The Painters

I like porn that makes an effort, and when it's well done on top of that, all the better. Rather than just putting two lads on a bed and telling them to have at it, the filmmakers here really worked with the concept: two painters taking a break who go completely out of control and suck and fuck everywhere in a variety of positions. The bottom here is Zeus and the big-dicked aggressive top is Anson.

The Writing on the Wall

Think Progress published a short piece yesterday with the title "Transgender Republicans say Trump seriously failed his first LGBT litmus test" (link here).

The article highlights several transgender folks who were at the Conservative Political Action Conference this week and feeling shellshocked by how Donald Trump broke his promise to the LGBT community when he cancelled President Obama's protections for transgender students.

One women in particular epitomizes what I see as the total myopia of the relatively small minority of LGBT Trump supporters. She mentioned how Trump held up the rainbow flag (albeit upside-down and very briefly) as proof that Trump somehow would be okay for LGBT people.

To put it bluntly, she was transfixed by an empty gesture while ignoring the clear signs Trump gave during the campaign about how he would repeatedly stab LGBT people in the back:

He promised many times to sign the hateful FADA, one of the most anti-LGBT measures Congress has proposed in recent years.

He promised to nominate only those Supreme Court justices and federal judges pre-approved by the stridently anti-LGBT Heritage Foundation.

He picked one of the most hatefully anti-LGBT politicians alive today as his running mate.

He filled his cabinet with anti-LGBT zealots like Jeffrey Sessions.

He staffed the highest levels of his White House with people who have a long history of supporting anti-LGBT causes.

He has repeatedly spoken adoringly of Vladimir Putin, an anti-LGBT tyrant.

The woman mentioned above was greatly disappointed by Trump's action. She said "this was his first big LGBT litmus test, and he failed it."

Yes he failed it, but this wasn't his first litmus test. He's been failing them all along now with his anti-LGBT actions and associations.

I Gotta Take This Call

I think the concept here is very hot. The busy, demanding boss is getting a blowjob and then buttfucks his assistant whilst rolling calls. I love the idea of sucking and fucking going down but the party on the other line has no idea what's happening.

The credits here in the beginning are confusing because they show the wrong names over the wrong lads' faces. Klein Kerr is the top, and Ken Rodeo is the bottom.

The Broken Promise

The New York Times published an excellent editorial yesterday titled "President Trump Breaks a Promise on Transgender Rights" (link here).

On the campaign trail, the piece notes, Trump promised to protect LGBT Americans from violence and oppression. The White House then reiterated that on January 31 when it said, "President Donald J. Trump is determined to protect the rights of all Americans, including the L.G.B.T.Q. community."

Less than a month later, Trump explicitly broke that promise by rescinding President Obama's protections for transgender school students. The Times editorial specifically names Attorney General Jeffrey Sessions as the culprit behind this cowardly act.

Sessions made it a priority to repeal the transgender protections. Secretary of Education Betsy DeVos opposed him (the matter was in her department's purview, not Sessions).

Sessions and DeVos took their dispute to Trump. And Trump sided with Sessions, breaking his own campaign promise and White House promise of last month in the process.

This excerpt from the Times piece is right on the money: "Trump has demonstrated time and again that his stated personal convictions are malleable. A genuine champion of gay and transgender rights would have steered clear of politicians like Mr. Sessions and Vice President Mike Pence, who have gone to great lengths to vilify and oppress gay and transgender Americans."

This broken promise foreshadows what will happen with other LGBT issues that reach the Oval Office. People like Sessions will pressure Trump into accepting their anti-LGBT policies.

And he'll fold like a cheap suit every time.

As I believe I've said here before, the man has no moral compass.

The Sunbathers

Mark and Max live in the same building but, other than nodding at each other passing in the halls, they are strangers. So it's by total coincidence that one warm day finds them both deciding to do the same thing -- sunbathe on the building roof.

As these things tend to happen, Mark and Max get to chatting and Max offers Mark some wine. Soon they're feeling a little buzzed and Max offers to put some oil on the younger man. That's the spark that ignites the fire, and it only takes a few minutes for Max's strong hand to slide inside Mark's trunks.

"Let's take this inside," the older man murmurs softly. Mark rises from his chair, his erection straining his snug swimsuit, as he happily follows his new friend inside.

Porn of yesteryear tended to have the more physically powerful male as the top and the smaller lad as the bottom, but smut these days is more diverse. Max is clearly the larger bloke here and could probably easily pin smaller Mark, but when it comes to fucking, Mark is in the driver's seat.

Muzzled

President Obama tried to stop schools from discriminating students based on gender identity. The Trump administration is reversing that policy entirely.

Schools will now be free to discriminate against these young people (details here).

The new education secretary, who has a history of being anti-LGBT, actually wanted to keep the rules in place. But powers-that-be inside the Trump administration overruled her, including the new Attorney General.

Now some people still insist Donald Trump is pro-LGBT, but this action reveals two interesting facts: First, more moderate voices within the administration that wish to accommodate LGBT people are being silenced. And second, the claim that Trump is pro-LGBT is directly refuted with actions like these.

Perhaps when Trump waved that upside-down rainbow flag for a few seconds, he thought he was summoning a leprechaun.

Winter Hookup

These lads look like they arranged to meet under a bridge after hooking up on Grindr. Max, the top, admits he's a virgin while Tegan, an experienced bottom, promises to make the experience memorable.

The top actually is a virgin of sorts. This apparently is the first porn shoot he's ever done that's been published. An experienced partner and a pro photographer are part of the reason it worked out well.

The Provocateur

Before a pedophilia scandal erupted this week, the gay writer Milo Yiannopoulos was often used as an example when Donald Trump's supporters claimed the President was pro-LGBT.

"How could somebody like Milo support Trump if the President was anti-LGBT?" they asked.

The answer is simple: Yiannopoulos is a provocateur. He could care less about Trump or other LGBT people. He's simply using Trump as a way to promote himself.

Mass media has no shortage of LGBT writers. With few exceptions, their politics are progressive and left of center. So to stand out in the crowd, a LGBT writer has to be distinctive (as is also the case for any non-LGBT writer).

If he was left of center, Yiannopoulos would just be another one of many. A few LGBT writers stand out because of their special talent, but that's not something you can force on yourself.

However, by acting like he was far right of center, and obnoxiously strident to boot, Yiannopoulos was alone. No other LGBT writer was way over there with him.

Ergo, by positionining himself far on the fringe, he became distinctive by saying and writing all sorts of outrageous, provocative statements. He made himself newsworthy to the conservative press: see, we're not bigots and haters, because we're listening to what Milo has to say. Look at us being inclusive!

Yiannopoulos is not the first one to do this. A small number of people from protected classes have made names for themselves by siding with the straight white male patriarchy and shitting all over other people in protected classes.

He isn't even the first LGBT person to do this. Tammy Bruce did that long ago. She was left of center until the mid-1990s, then decided changing her stripes would make her more marketable. It worked.

The bottom line to all of this is that Yiannopoulos's public posturings and outrageous statements are irrelevant when it comes to Trump's anti-LGBT policies and close friendships with anti-LGBT zealots.

No amount of posturing by a self-promoting provocateur like Yiannopoulos will change that fact.

Yo Dude

The bottom here is funny because he obviously can't wait to get fucked by the bigger lad. The top acts somewhat stoned to me or perhaps he's just really laid back. Whatever the answer, the sex is pretty steamy.

New Hampshire Call to Action

Five states and the District of Columbia currently prevent anyone from practicing "gay conversion therapy" on any minor. New Hampshire may soon join their ranks.

Senate Bill 224, introduced by Senator Martha Fuller Clark, is currently under consideration in the legislature. Like similar measures in other states, it would prevent any minor from being subjected to conversion therapy, a medically and scientifically worthless practice that can lead to significant trauma.

If you live in New Hampshire, you should contact your state legislators and urge their support for the bill. If you know anyone who lives in New Hampshire, encourage them to do the same.

The American Psychiatric Association, the American Psychological Association, the American Counseling Association, The National Association of Social Workers, The American Academy of Pediatrics, and the American Association for Marriage and Family Therapy have all discredited this practice.

Currently, California, Illinois, New Jersey, Oregon, Vermont, and Washington, D.C. prohibit anyone from practicing so-called conversion therapy on any minor under eighteen years of age.

Unfortunately, no federal law prohibits the conversion therapy scam. Last summer, the Republican Party approved a platform that condemned laws like the one proposed in New Hampshire.

Some anti-LGBT individuals in Donald Trump's inner circle are urging the administration to endorse conversion therapy and for the GOP to introduce legislation that would block states from outlawing the practice.

Vice-President Pence has been a strong advocate for conversion therapy and, in the past, tried to divert funds from HIV/AIDS prevention programs to groups that practiced conversion therapy. Pence wrote at the time: "Resources should be directed towards those institutions which provide assistance to those seeking to change their sexual behavior."

I would not be surprised, as time passes and Trump's support continues to erode, that he might attempt to appease hardcore conservatives and religious fundamentalist by adopting policies that pander to them, including those more aggressively promotion bogus conversion therapies.

The Collector

These are stills from a porn flick that seems to be a takeoff on the John Fowles novel and subsequent film adaptation titled The Collector. In the porn version, Christian abducts several lads, who all happen to be bottoms, and keeps them bound and helpless in an old shed. Soon the bindings are removed and Christian's cock ends up in their willing mouths and bungholes.

Christian was featured here before in another still set from the same movie; that post can be found here, where the download file is still active. There's something very alluring about trashy hot Christian, who is now in his late 20s, stands 6'3, and weighs in at a lean 180 pounds. He's a true bisexual, married, and will happily plow any warm, tight hole, whether it be male or female.

Inalienable Rights

The Washington state supreme court ruled unanimously last week that a florist could not refuse to sell flowers for a same-sex wedding on religious grounds. While this is a state court decision and not binding on other states, the case has nonetheless been closely watched by civil rights and LGBT rights advocates because of possible national implications.

The florist's attorney has said they will now appeal to the United States Supreme Court. There is no guarantee, however, that the high court justices will take the case.

The state supreme court asserted some powerful arguments in its ruling. Per the court, this case "is no more about access to flowers than civil rights cases in the 1960s were about access to sandwiches," echoing back to the days more than a half century earlier when businesses refused to serve African-Americans and other minorities.

The court also said "public accommodations laws do not simply guarantee access to goods or services. Instead, they serve a broader societal purpose: eradicating barriers to the equal treatment of all citizens."

While discrimination cases are not new, this decision is important because it equates same-sex couples' rights with other persecuted individuals like interracial couples in the era of segregation.

The state's attorney general later said this month's case was a landmark because it established "sexual orientation is a protected class — just like race, just like religion."

If you'd like to read the Washington supreme court decision, it's available online free here in its entirety on the state's webpage.

This court ruling comes at an important time because of two related issues in the news.

First is the deceptively titled "First Amendment Defense Act" (FADA), a pending bill in Congress that Donald Trump has promised to sign. As I've written here before, FADA would allow anyone to discriminate against LGBT persons and others by simply claiming a religious basis.

Don't want gays in your restaurant or your medical office? With FADA passed, all you have to say is that it offends your religious beliefs.

Second is the potential seating of Neil Gorsuch, who was nominated by Trump recently to fill the current Supreme Court vacancy. Gorsuch has ruled in favor of discriminatory "religious exemption" cases in the past and could do so again if this florist case, or a similar one, came before the high court.

Here is where the rubber meets the road with Trump. It doesn't matter that he says he's pro-LGBT and once waved a rainbow flag upside down for two seconds. What matters is, as President, he has acted and will act to ensure that LGBT Americans are an inferior class who can be discriminated against at will on "religious" grounds for decades to come.

It's not what he says that makes him dangerous. It's what he's done and plans to do. Any LGBT person who continues to support him is only fooling him or herself about the dangers we all face.

Beefy Buddy

Filo is the bigger, more muscular lad topping here. He did a few jerkoff shoots several years ago with no fucking, and after a hiatus, he's back again and going all the way. He's in his mid-twenties, stands 5'10, and weighs 185 pounds. He has a high cuddly/cute factor with an innocent face plus a body made for sin -- the perfect formula for fun.
