Millions spent on Trump visit. Red carpets, Royals in coronets and golden dining services too. And all he offers in return are petulant racist insults about our capital city and our mayor.

Today, we pay tribute to Pope Francis.
He welcomed refugees & the homeless where others turned their backs.
He called for peace — in Gaza, Ukraine, Sudan, the DRC & beyond — where others cheered for war.
His humanity is an inspiration to us all, and he will be greatly missed.

I am really saddened by the level of vitriol and hatred being directed toward the trans community.
We are losing our common humanity. How hard is it to treat people with kindness and respect?
Trans people are human beings — and they deserve to live in dignity like anyone else.
