‘Drag Race’ Judge Lucian Piane Attacks the Obamas, Implies Clintons Are Murderers in Latest Tweet Storm

RuPaul’s Drag Race judge and music producer Lucian Piane is again sounding off on Twitter about the 2016 election.

In a series of tweets sent over the past 24 hours, Piane called Michelle Obama an “idiot”, called President Obama campaigning for Hillary “an atrocious abuse of power”, used Trumpian syntax to label Hillary supporter and actress Laura Benanti as “lost” and a “loser”, implied that the Clintons have murdered people and threatened Bernie Sanders and his family, said that Hillary Clinton has Parkinson’s, and called on “the gays…to unite to help take down the Clinton Pedophilia Foundation.”

Another idiot: @MichelleObama t.co/8y7K0B0UbG

It’s an atrocious abuse of power. Presidents should not use their opinion to influence an election. t.co/QDk6xaytJl

— Lucian Piane (@RevoLucian) November 3, 2016

Don’t listen to that idiot @LauraBenanti. She’s lost. Loser. Think for yourself. Don’t be narrow-minded.

— Lucian Piane (@RevoLucian) November 3, 2016

Don’t you think the murderous Clintons might have threatened his family? 💁🏻‍♂️Or is it too obvious? t.co/JjqUIp0vhv

— Lucian Piane (@RevoLucian) November 3, 2016

Please send a lot of love to @HillaryClinton. Her Parkinson’s is bad. Please do her a favor and don’t vote for her.t.co/470Q9G8y8N

The gays need to unite to help take down the Clinton Pedophilia Foundation.#TakeBackAmerica

On Instagram, Piane said the Obamas are corrupt.

Piane also said he would be voting for Bernie Sanders in the general election next Tuesday, presumably writing in his name given that he is not on the ballot.

🖕Fuck this election. I’m voting for @BernieSanders. Be a leader, not a follower. We can do it.#BERNIEorBUST #TakeBackAmerica

— Lucian Piane (@RevoLucian) November 3, 2016

Piane went on to defend Susan Sarandon who recently announced she would be voting for Jill Stein.

Love @SusanSarandon preaching truth on @CNN right now. I wish she would help resuscitate enthusiasm for @BernieSanders. #TakeBackAmerica

— Lucian Piane (@RevoLucian) November 3, 2016

Piane previously drew the internet’s ire when he suggested that LGBT issues should not be a deciding factor in this election.

Neither RuPaul nor Logo (the network that airs Drag Race) have commented on Piane’s statements.

Read some more of Piane’s latest anti-Hillary tweets, complete with conspiracy theories, which he says are not theories but truth, below.

And yet people are still being idiots because “Donald Trump is worse”. Fuck off. Wake the fuck up. We don’t HAVE TO ELECT EITHER OF THEM. ❤️ t.co/OpZCS5a2ls

Some responses:

Hey, @RuPaul: I will not support you until you disavow your racist, sexist, nativist music producer, @RevoLucian, whom you make $.

AHF’s Michael Weinstein Doubles Down On PrEP As A “Party Drug”

As much as we love their Out of the Closet thrift shops, it’s probably time for the gay community to put as much space as we can between ourselves and the AIDS Healthcare Foundation. Their president is going seriously off the rails.

In a new interview, Michael Weinstein repeated his out-of-touch rhetoric about how we all need to be using condoms — yeah, of course condoms are effective, but saying that it should be the only acceptable method of preventing HIV transmission is about as realistic as pushing for abstinence-only sex ed.

As you’ve probably heard, his group is pretty much the only major backer behind Proposition 60, a proposed law that sounds like a good idea but in practice would likely cause a lot of damage. Not only would it require condoms for porn shoots, it also includes a provision that would force the state to hire Michael Weinstein as a sort of porn czar for California. The law’s vague wording could mean that couples could be sued for shooting condomless sex videos in their own homes. And it could expose performers’ real-life details to stalkers.

Weinstein has a long legacy of stigmatizing people with HIV, and still has negative things to say about PrEP. “It’s often taken in conjunction with crystal meth and other party drugs,” he recently told NPR’s All Things Considered. “It’s really a get-out-of-jail-free card.”

The interviewer does not ask for sources for that claim, so maybe it’s true, but given the source we doubt it.

And this is the way Weinstein and AHF always operate, whether it’s about PrEP or porn. They insist that gay men are dangerous, and that we should all be using condoms all the time — an unrealistic expectation that is out of touch with reality.

Weinstein says that he’s just looking out for the safety of porn performers — oh, but he also refuses to meet with them, because they’ve called him names. Good grief.

So, Californians, remember to get out and vote — not just for president, but also no no no, a thousand times no, on Michael Weinstein’s Prop 60.

Wonder Woman Is Here to Save the World in New Trailer – WATCH

The second trailer for the Wonder Woman movie has just been released and we’re getting a bigger look at what to expect from Diana Prince in her solo big-screen effort.

To sum it up: Diana’s going to save the world and look fly as hell doing it.

Via The Hollywood Reporter: 

The trailer shows Diana Prince (Gal Gadot) looking at an old photo featured in Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice, confirming the narrative will include a modern day component with Wonder Woman looking back at World War I.

She encounters Steve Trevor (Chris Pine), who is on a mission to prevent World War I when he crash lands on an island and meets the Amazons. He tells them the coming war puts them “in more danger than you think,” and Diana quickly decides to do something about it.

Watch, below.

Watch Ryan Reynolds And Conan O’Brien’s Passionate Makeout Session

On the November 2 episode of Conan, actor Ryan Reynolds and host Conan O’Brien surprised audiences by abruptly recreating that iconic “kissing in the rain” moment from the film — and with Conan filling in Rachael McAdams’ shoes.

The moment is part of a challenge in which Ryan asks Conan to guess what product he’s on the show to promote, with options including: sexy briefs for men made out of 100% ham; his brand-new sex tape; or his first-ever parenting book, 10 Easy Steps to Lower Your Child’s Self-Esteem.

Beyoncé Slays the CMAs with Dixie Chicks Duet of ‘Daddy Lessons’ – WATCH

Beyoncé made a surprise performance at the 50th annual Country Music Awards (CMAs) on Wednesday night, performing her track “Daddy Lessons” with The Dixie Chicks.

From her visual album Lemonade, “Daddy Lessons” caught the Chicks’ attention shortly after it was released. The band unexpectedly performed the song at a concert earlier this year in May.

After news that Beyoncé would be appearing at the CMAs leaked on Wednesday, some insisted they would boycott the CMAs over Queen Bee’s presence. After Bey took the CMA stage Wednesday night, others took to social media to share their racist thoughts about why Beyoncé should not be performing at the very white award show.

The Washington Post reports: 

In a string of tweets, many claimed Beyoncé’s blackness should have been cause for her to be barred from playing the CMAs (which, a quick glance around will tell you, is overwhelmingly white.)

Many of these tweets followed the incredibly obvious, “Does this mean (insert white country star) can play at (insert mostly black awards show)?”

These social media posts echoed racist conversations about whether “Daddy Lessons” was really a country song in the first place.

Though as the Post notes, at least one person on Twitter pointed out the extreme irony of racists attacking Beyoncé for showing up on country’s biggest night.

Beyonce came to remind country where it got its sound. Half this crowd looks like they weren’t ready to like it. Or to dance.

— Mikki Kendall (@Karnythia) November 3, 2016

Strangely, the CMAs did not include any images or videos of Bey’s performance on their official Instagram account.
