30 Former GOP Congressmen Repudiate Trump in Letter, Call Him a ‘Mockery’ of Conservatism

Thirty former GOP congressmen have signed a letter repudiating Donald Trump, accusing him of making “a mockery of the principles and values we have cherished and which we sought to represent in Congress.”

Says the letter, via Politico:

“Each of us has taken an oath of office that conferred upon us a solemn obligation to act in the best interests of the United States. As Republican members of Congress, we took pride in representing a political party that stood for honest and principled public leadership in which the American people could place their trust,” they wrote in a joint statement. “Sadly, our party’s nominee this year is a man who makes a mockery of the principles and values we have cherished and which we sought to represent in Congress.”

…

“Given the enormous power of the office, every candidate for president must be judged rigorously in assessing whether he or she has the competence, intelligence, knowledge, understanding, empathy, judgment, and temperament necessary to keep America on a safe and steady course,” they wrote. “Donald Trump fails on each of those measures, and he has proven himself manifestly unqualified to be president.”

More:

“In nominating Donald Trump, the Republican Party has asked the people of the United States to entrust their future to a man who insults women, mocks the handicapped, urges that dissent be met with violence, seeks to impose religious tests for entry into the United States, and applies a de facto ethnicity test to judges,” the letter reads. “He offends our allies and praises dictators. His public statements are peppered with lies. He belittles our heroes and insults the parents of men who have died serving our country. Every day brings a fresh revelation that highlights the unacceptable danger in electing him to lead our nation.”

Man Attacked in NYC’s West Village by Man Shouting Anti-Gay, Racist Slurs – VIDEO

Police are looking for a man who attacked another man in NYC’s West Village over the weekend, reportedly yelling both anti-gay and racist slurs.

The victim was pushed by his assailant and required medical treatment for a head laceration and general pain following the attack.

The NYPD are investigating the incident as a possible hate crime.

Gothamist reports:

According to the NYPD, a 32-year-old man was walking on West 4th Street between Jones and Cornelia streets just after 5:30 p.m. on Sunday, October 2nd, when a man in his mid-20s approached him and began yelling homophobic slurs. The younger man then allegedly pushed the 32-year-old from behind, causing him to fall and hit his head on the window frame of Las Ramblas [below], a tapas bar at 170 West 4th Street.

The victim was taken to Beth Israel hospital after the attack. Of the victim’s injury, an NYPD spokesman said, “It required a staple, so it was quite a big laceration.”

While Gothamist could not confirm what led to the attack or what specific slurs were hurled, The New York Daily News reports that the attacker shouted, “F—-t! N—-r!”

According to the News, “the suspect is described as Hispanic, bald, in his mid-20s, about 6 feet and 240 pounds. He was last seen wearing a black T-shirt, black pants and black sneakers.”

Watch surveillance video of the suspect, released by police, below.

Anyone with information about the attack is urged to call NYPD’s Crime Stoppers Hotline at 1-800-577-TIPS (8477). All calls are confidential.

Pence Must Answer for Abysmal LGBTQ Record

This op-ed originally appeared on USATODAY.com.

Before Donald Trump selected him to be his running mate in July, most Americans had only heard of Mike Pence on one previous occasion. It was March 2015 and Pence, as governor of Indiana, had signed a “license to discriminate” bill allowing businesses to refuse services to LGBTQ Hoosiers. Then he went on ABC’s This Week and refused eight times to simply even say he opposes discrimination against this community.

The backlash was enormous. Companies like Angie’s List and Salesforce scrapped plans to do business in Indiana, and more than 130 technology industry CEOs and executives signed a statement by the Human Rights Campaign calling for all state legislatures to pass comprehensive non-discrimination protections.

When all was said and done, Pence’s misguided move cost Indiana at least $60 million in lost revenue and 12 conventions. The damage he inflicted on his state’s reputation also cost him in public support. In a recent poll, only 36% of Indiana’s voters said that Pence deserved re-election.

Pence has never left any question about his views on gay rights. When he was in Congress, he said allowing same-sex couples to marry could bring about “societal collapse,” and he supported a constitutional amendment that would have banned marriage equality. He also voted against basic non-discrimination protection for workers, which he said “wages war on freedom of religion in the workplace.”

Pence also voted against our right to serve openly in the military and even against theMatthew Shepard and James Byrd Jr. Hate Crimes Prevention Act, which he called part of a “radical social agenda.” And perhaps most offensive of all, he proposed shifting HIV and AIDS funding from organizations that he claimed “celebrate and encourage the types of behaviors that facilitate the spreading of the HIV virus” to those that support the abusive practice of so-called “conversion therapy.”

Pence also voted against our right to serve openly in the military and even against the Matthew Shepard and James Byrd Jr. Hate Crimes Prevention Act, which he called part of a “radical social agenda.” And perhaps most offensive of all, he proposed shifting HIV and AIDS funding from organizations that he claimed “celebrate and encourage the types of behaviors that facilitate the spreading of the HIV virus” to those that support the abusive practice of so-called “conversion therapy.”

Yet watching Tuesday night’s one and only vice presidential debate, you never would have known that Pence built his political career in this manner. In a debate that lasted 90 minutes, Pence was never once asked by the moderator about this defining part of his record — one that’s out of step with the 7 in 10 Americans, including large majorities of Republicans and Indiana residents, who believe LGBTQ people deserve full equality under the law.

Faith and values have led Clinton and Kaine to much more inclusive views on LGBTQ equality. As secretary of State, Clinton declared before the international community that “gay rights are human rights,” and in the Senate, she was an original cosponsor of the Employment Non-Discrimination Act. As governor, Kaine protected Virginia state workers from discrimination on the basis of sexual orientation.

Today the pair are running on the most robust LGBTQ agenda ever proposed by a presidential ticket. Clinton says her “highest priority” is to pass and sign into law the Equality Act, landmark legislation co-sponsored by Kaine that would protect all LGBTQ people from discrimination under our federal civil rights laws.

Donald Trump and Mike Pence owe answers to voters, particularly the more than 9 million LGBTQ adults whose lives will be deeply impacted by this election. We deserve to hear debate and discussion about why they have repeatedly attacked us for political gain and are running on an agenda that would strip away decades of progress.

Kaine told CNN on Thursday that he would have loved to debate Pence on their respective LGBTQ records. There was a conversation about all this Tuesday night, not onstage but online. Millions of people were part of a nationally trending discussion on Twitter and other platforms that was hashtagged — after Trump’s infamous retort about his record — #AskTheGays.

It should tell the news networks something that these issues drove so much of the organic conversation around the vice presidential debate, and yet weren’t deemed important enough to merit a single question directly to the candidates.

Politics can be awfully ugly.

But you know what isn’t ugly? Tim Kaine in his younger days.

Now we aren’t saying the Democratic Vice Presidential nominee isn’t a good looking guy today — he’s definitely got that friendly neighbor vibe going on — but the Tim Kaine of yesteryear has sparked a whole new vocabulary of political discourse.

There’s really no debating it — Tim was a babe.

Drew Droege & Chloe Sevigny Have A Haunted House Of True Terrors

Good morning, America.

It has been quite a while since it’s come to our attention that Drew Droege’s Chloë Sevigny sketches are the antidote to being in a bad mood, but she’s back with a spooktacular haunted house edition and we’d be remiss not to bring it to your attention.

Bloody noses, Alex Pettyfer, identity theft and more await you in what truly sounds like a terrifying house.

Hurricane Matthew, Sean Hannity, Gloria Naylor, Toronto, Shia LaBeouf: HOT LINKS

HURRICANE MATTHEW. Hurricane barrels toward Florida and may hit as a Category 4 storm. Many models show it looping around in Atlantic and striking state again. “When it comes closest to South Florida Thursday night, it is forecast to be producing winds of 130 mph, a low-end Category 4 storm that can cause “catastrophic” damage, according to the hurricane center. About 150,000 people were ordered evacuated in Palm Beach County Wednesday night, as Hurricane Matthew’s projected course shifted closer to South Florida.”

To all our readers in the Sunshine State as well as Georgia and the Carolinas. Please make appropriate preparations and stay safe. Wishing you the best…

BARACK OBAMA. President’s approval rating hits new second term high: “President Barack Obama’s job approval rating hit 55 percent in a new poll released Thursday, the highest that number has been at any point during his second term in office. The CNN/ORC poll released Thursday marks the seventh consecutive month that Obama’s job approval numbers have been above 50 percent. His job approval number is up 4 percentage points over the previous CNN/ORC poll and is up 11 points relative to a similar CNN/ORC poll conducted in mid-September, 2015.”

DEATHS. Gloria Naylor dies at 66: “Gloria Naylor, whose debut novel “The Women of Brewster Place,” became a best-seller, a National Book Award winner and a TV miniseries released through Oprah Winfrey’s production company, has died at the age of 66. Naylor’s death was confirmed Monday to The Associated Press by Cara Reilly, an assistant at the literary agency Sterling Lord Literistic. Reilly provided no other details about Naylor’s death.”

ORLANDO. Pulse survivors say the massacre has created better ties between the gay community and locals: “I would’ve never believe so many people would get involved, no matter what their beliefs are,” said club head of security Neal Whittleton. “There was definitely a big outpouring of love for the community.”

TORONTO. New gay sports bar Striker opens. “The whole idea behind Striker is to bridge that gap between the predominantly straight — I would say straight — sports leagues and the gays,” says Lee. “Toronto has the most gay sports leagues in all of North America.”

TECH. Google, Disney and Apple probably won’t be buying Twitter. Stock plunges afterhours: “While company execs have been unable to grow the business, many think a link with a larger entity would spur Twitter’s potential.”

STUDY. People who oppose gay marriage are less likely to value expert opinion: “A newly released survey shows that Americans who care about expert opinion and scientific evidence hold different policy positions than those who don’t — across party lines. The survey, conducted in January by the independent research organization NORC at the University of Chicago and released Tuesday, asked 1,007 Americans online and by phone about how they seek out and process information. About four in five respondents said that it is easier now than it was five years ago to find useful information, but four in five also said that they are sometimes or often overwhelmed by how much information comes to them.”

Samantha Bee Meets Trump Supporters Who Say the Election is Rigged – WATCH

Throughout the 2016 campaign, Donald Trump has repeatedly claimed that the election is rigged–a line which has supporters have taken hook, line and sinker.

That’s why it was somewhat shocking when Trump said at the first presidential debate that he would accept the results of the election if he loses. But, unsurprisingly, it didn’t take long for him to renege on that promise.

Samantha Bee sent correspondents to a Trump rally to find out why they think the vote is rigged.

It turns out, however, that Trump supporters only think the election is rigged if Trump loses.

Asked correspondent Allana Harkin of one supporter making this argument, “Isn’t that just like saying any woman who didn’t want to date you is a lesbian?”

Watch, below.

Warwick Rowers Talk About Dirty Sock Requests, Stripping Down to Fight Homophobia: WATCH

Vlogger Davey Wavey spent a day with nude UK calendar stars the Warwick Rowers to highlight their fight against homophobia in sport.

The rowers explained to Davey how their charity calendar came about and how, as a group of straight men they came together to fight anti-gay bullying and the “heteronormative culture” in sports. Their Sport Allies charitable initiative gives a portion of the proceeds to fight homophobia in sports.

Said one of the rowers:

“It originally started about seven years ago now. Our boat club was really poor. It started as a way to make just a little bit of money. A couple years in it got picked up by the gay community – and from there it grew and grew. And we decided that as the gay community got behind us and supported us that we would set up [as] allies…We try to challenge stereotypes of sportsmen and try and promote sport as a more inclusive place for everyone.”

The rowers also talked about the strange requests they get, one from a man claiming to be a Romanian sock charity, asking for their dirty socks, explaining that “we can clean them when we get to Romania.”

HRC Launches Targeting Campaign as Part of Largest Get-Out-The-Vote Effort in Its History

Today, HRC announced the latest push in the organization’s largest get-out-the-vote effort in its more than 35-year history. It’s a multi-state targeting campaign that for the first time reaches well beyond the nation’s nearly 10 million LGBTQ voters to mobilize the growing ranks of allies and others with a history of supporting equality.

“Our new model allows us to reach out directly to hundreds of thousands of voters not yet affiliated with HRC, but who have demonstrated an openness to creating a more equal and fair society,” said HRC President Chad Griffin(@ChadHGriffin). “LGBTQ equality is no longer a wedge issue, but one embraced by a clear majority of Americans, and particularly younger Americans. In fact, being anti-LGBTQ is now a liability.”

HRC’s dynamic new model, developed with the elections data firm Catalist, makes possible some of the most sophisticated targeting ever of potential pro-equality voters. It allows direct outreach to hundreds of thousands of potential pro-equality voters in crucial swing states through both new and traditional means.

In North Carolina alone, HRC expects to reach more than 400,000 voters through phone calls and an online persuasive advertising campaign unprecedented for the organization. Potential pro-equality voters have been identified using years of HRC polling, public voter files and other available data. HRC is initially targeting five states — North Carolina, Florida, New Hampshire, Nevada, and Pennsylvania, with more to come.

This historic targeting effort is part of an unprecedented #turnOUT campaign that HRC launched earlier this year, which includes massive voter mobilization efforts across all 50 states and deployment of more than 100 staff members to battleground states and races. The targeting campaign announced today represents a new dimension of HRC’s work, and is expected to be replicated in years to come as the organization mobilizes the nation’s growing ranks of equality voters to help fuel ongoing efforts to ensure full equality for LGBTQ people.

#AM_Equality Tip Sheet: October 6, 2016

EXCLUSIVE IN TODAY’S POLITICO PLAYBOOK: Today, HRC announced the latest push in the organization’s largest get-out-the-vote effort in its more than 35-year history. It’s a multi-state targeting campaign that for the first time reaches well beyond the nation’s nearly 10 million LGBTQ voters to mobilize the growing ranks of allies and others with a history of supporting equality. “Our new model allows us to reach out directly to hundreds of thousands of voters not yet affiliated with HRC, but who have demonstrated an openness to creating a more equal and fair society,” said HRC President Chad Griffin (@ChadHGriffin).

TIM KAINE TELLS CNN HE WANTED DEBATE TIME ON LGBTQ RIGHTS: This morning, Tim Kaine told Poppy Harlow (@PoppyHarlowCNN) on CNN that he would have loved to debate Mike Pence on LGBTQ rights. Clinton and Kaine represent the most pro-equality presidential ticket in history. Trump and Pence, on the other hand, have vowed to roll-back LGBTQ rights at every turn. Pence has made a career of opposing equality, with a track record that includes Indiana’s anti-LGBTQ legislation that cost the state more than $60 million, publicly supporting offsetting funding for HIV prevention with funding for the abusive practice of so-called “conversion therapy,” opposing hate crime legislation and supporting “Don’t Ask Don’t Tell.” Watch here.

HRC FOR HRC IN THE GRANITE STATE: HRC President Chad Griffin is heading to New Hampshire today and Friday to rally support for Hillary Clinton and other pro-equality candidates, including U.S. Senate candidate Maggie Hassan (@Maggie_Hassan). Events include an organizing event in Concord, phone banking at Dartmouth College and a roundtable conversation with Seacoast area residents. At the events, Griffin will discuss the stark choice members of the LGBTQ community face this election. Members of the LGBTQ community have the power make the difference in November, including in New Hampshire, which has an estimated 40,000 LGBTQ voters — nearly identical to President Obama’s 39,643-vote winning margin in the state in 2012. The events are part of HRC’s #turnOUT campaign, an effort to engage nearly 10 million LGBTQ voters this election cycle.

• NBC News characterizes the lack of LGBTQ equality questions at Tuesday’s debate as a “missed opportunity.” HRC President Chad Griffin tells NBC’s Mary Emily O’Hara (@MaryEmilyOHara), “[Pence] has built a career on anti-LGBTQ policies.” More here.
• DON’T MISS: HRC’s Mary Beth Maxwell, Senior Vice President for Programs, Research and Training, writes in The Huffington Post about how Kaine’s faith leads him to embrace LGBTQ equality, while Pence uses his to deny it. More here.

THROWBACK THURSDAY: In a surprise move exactly two years ago, U.S. Supreme Court justices declined to hear any cases pending before them challenging state bans on marriage for same-sex couples. This historic move allowed U.S. Circuit Court decisions striking down the bans to stand. That meant that same-sex couples in Utah, Oklahoma, Virginia, Wisconsin, Indiana, West Virginia, North Carolina, South Carolina, Kansas, Colorado and Wyoming were able to legally marry. Flashback to this date at HRC.

NEW YORK MOVES TO ALLOW TRANS YOUNG PEOPLE TO ACCESS HORMONE THERAPY: Transgender young people in New York could begin to receive Medicaid coverage for hormone-blockers, reports The New York Times. A rule proposed Wednesday in the State Register would remove prohibitions on such treatments.

OUT OF TRAGEDY, HOPE RISES IN ORLANDO: The New York Daily News reports that survivors of the Pulse nightclub shooting in Orlando say they are experiencing more acceptance in the community since 49 innocent LGBTQ people and allies were killed in the tragedy.  “I would’ve never believe so many people would get involved, no matter what their beliefs are,” club head of security Neal Whittleton said at a press conference before being honored with a “National Hero Award” from the Red Cross. “There was definitely a big outpouring of love for the community.”

FILIPINO SPEAKER ENDORSES SAME-SEX UNIONS: Pantaleon Alvarez (@speakeralvarez), Speaker of the Philippines’ House of Representatives, is calling for quick passage of a bill to legalize same-sex unions, saying he would sponsor the measure to give “happiness and dignity” to the country’s LGBTQ community. More from The Manila Standard.

• And in Austria, the system of recognizing same-sex unions is getting an upgrade, but not to full marriage equality. The unions will be registered at the district clerk’s office, same as marriages, rather than in district administration departments. More from The Associated Press.
