Lizzo and the Famous Flute

 www.yahoo.com/news/republicans-mad-library-congress-allowed-170710690.html

Okay, can someone please explain to me what the problem is here? 

Why do some Republicans have their panties in a twist about this? 

Here are the facts as I understand them:

Lizzo asked permission to play the flute during her DC concert. 

The Library of Congress granted her request.  

The Library of Congress sent the flute in a protected case with a curator and security officer to guard it. 

End of story. 

Except it's not. 

Suddenly people involved are being threatened with deportation (absolutely ridiculous) and of course Lizzo is being degraded for her weight, her clothes, and her dance moves. 

Y'all. 

Get a hold of yourselves. 

She didn't fornicate with the flute. 

She didn't throw it on the ground and stomp on it. 

She played it. 

She is a talented singer, rapper, lyricist, and CLASSICALLY TRAINED FLUTIST / FLAUTIST.

She is not, as one Republican claimed, famous for being the most morbidly obese person in the world. 

She is famous because she has won Grammy, Emmy and MTV Video Music Awards, as well as having hit albums, producing a reality television show, and having her own clothing business. 

Please quit finding ways to trash Lizzo. 

And by the way, if you're keeping score:

Librarians: 2

Republicans: 0

Quote of the day: "We just did a DNA test. Turns out: It's 100% that [crystal] flute @lizzo played at her D.C. stop on the #SpecialTour tonight," The Library of Congress
