7 Things: AL reacts to Trump indictment; Democrats could lose congressional district; and more …

7. A game where teenagers kill each other dozens of times each round has canceled one of its most popular players because they suggested that LGBTQ boosters “leave the children alone.” Some have called the comment “homophobic,” which it is not.

6. Bloody weekend in Birmingham as one is killed at a birthday party where 100 rounds were fired and a 29-year-old is shot in a drive-by shooting. So far, there have been 83 homicides in Jefferson County, with 59 in Birmingham, so far … so far.

5. The gay pride event at the White House troubled many when it appeared the relatively new gay pride flag was seemingly given center stage over the American flag, possibly in violation of the U.S. Flag Code. Biden also declared gay people were the bravest he ever saw, which is odd because you aren’t really allowed to criticize them anymore even though he claimed they were being tossed out of restaurants.

4. But the White House can’t mess up just once, they are also making college athletes who are coming to the White House to mask up if they are not vaccinated. The guidance is very 2020, “Masking Guidance: Fully vaccinated guests are not required to wear a mask on the White House grounds,” the email states [bold font in original email]. “Guests who are not fully vaccinated must wear a mask at all times and maintain at least 6 feet distance from others while on the White House grounds.”

3. Democrats seem to be celebrating their Supreme Court win that could net them a second congressional seat in Alabama, but it may not be that easy. They may end up with no seats.

2. President Donald Trump is asking his supporters to come to Miami for a protest during his appearance on a 37-count indictment; the media wants to make this about how it could turn violent. That 37-charge indictment is almost as big as Trump’s 38-point lead over Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis in a national primary poll by CBS News.

1. Alabama lawmakers react to President Donald Trump’s latest indictment and 37 criminal counts by complaining about the state of the American justice system which let others walk for similar acts that they want him to walk for. U.S. Sen.Tommy Tuberville (R-Auburn) said this is, “another witch hunt against the Republican front runner.” U.S. Rep. Dale Strong (R-Monrovia) adds, “it is unlikely we see an indictment of our current president Joe Biden for the same thing.”
