Hmmm…what USAID wasn’t bad for America…what if getting rid of it only hurt us and everyone else?
What if the richest man in the world being responsible for ending aid to the poorest people in the world will go down as one of the most bizarre and disgusting acts of the 21st century?

How Patton didn’t just punch Bill Maher straight in his face, I’ll never know…
PATTON OSWALT: These people are scared. They're being targeted. We're watching them be targeted right now. We're watching transgender people be targeted in a very aggressive way, so—
BILL MAHER: We are? Where?
OSWALT: Oh my god.

I'm a trans person w/ a trans kid & we lose trans siblings every year to hateful violence. On Trans Day of Remembrance we're called not only to collectively mourn those we've lost, but to renew our commitment to keep fighting for those who are still here.

Welcome to being a woman.
Why do journalists have no apparent solidarity whatsoever? This rancid POS jabs his finger in a woman reporter's face and calls her "piggy" and none of the other journalists there says a word?
When asked if there was anything "incriminating" in Epstein's emails, Trump pointed a finger in a female reporter's face and snapped. 'Quiet. Quiet, Piggy.'
