MITTENS. Mitt Romney to meet with Trump this weekend, may be appointed Secretary of State: “Romney doesn’t have a great deal of relevant experience, just like South Carolina’s Nikki Haley, whose name is also attached to the Secretary of State role. But he does have a bit more – he was a governor, ran management consulting and private equity corporations, managed the Salt Lake City Olympics organizing committee, and was a missionary abroad. Despite many of his less than acceptable positions, especially on social issues, Romney is seen by many as a statesman.”
WHITE PEOPLE, AM I RIGHT? This very Republican photo taken by Mike Pence –using a selfie stick– goes viral: “The picture, tweeted by Washington Rep. Cathy McMorris Rodgers, showed the vice president-elect surrounded by more than 100 Republican representatives.”

TERRORISM. New York bomber pleads not guilty: “Prosecutors have accused the Afghan-born U.S. citizen of setting off an explosion in Manhattan’s Chelsea neighborhood on Sept. 17. It did not kill anyone but hurt 30 people. The attack came hours after authorities say another pipe bomb planted by Rahimi went off along the course of a charity road race in New Jersey, although that detonation did not injure anyone.”
YEESH! What a horrible way to go.

New Kids On The Block Singer Jonathan Knight Proposes To Boyfriend In Africa
New Kids On The Block Singer Jonathan Knight Proposes To Boyfriend In Africa
New Kids on the Block singer Jonathan Knight looked over at his boyfriend and personal trainer Harley Rodriguez.
“You got it,” he seemed to tell himself, holding back the excitement.
He may or may not have been planning to pop the question since summertime, but the time for mind games was through.
“We were in Africa, our parents were there — our moms were there — and I just figured this was the time to pop the question and make it official,” Knight recalled on Sirius radio’s The Jenny McCarthy Show on Tuesday.
“We were on the Zambezi River — it’s right above Victoria Falls. We took a nighttime raft dinner, just the four of us out on the river, there was like a hippopotamus in the background. It was a super moon. It was just absolutely beautiful, it was so romantic.”
The two have been hangin’ tough together for eight years, and the timing of the engagement comes just months before Knight joins the old gang for a nostalgia tour across the U.S., along with Boyz II Men and Paula Abdul.
Congratulations!
CNN Compares Reactions of Optimistic Gay Trump Voter with Scared Transgender Clinton Supporter – WATCH
CNN Compares Reactions of Optimistic Gay Trump Voter with Scared Transgender Clinton Supporter – WATCH
CNN aired a segment on Thursday that highlighted the division between gay voters who supported Donald Trump and other members of the LGBT community who fear what his presidency will mean for their safety and their civil rights.
In the wake of Trump’s election, the news network set up a voicemail hotline where people could call and leave their responses to the outcome of the presidential race. CNN compared the reaction of a gay Tennesseean voter who proudly supports Trump and a transgender woman from Massachusetts who says Trump’s election has left her scared to leave the house and constantly looking over her shoulder.
Said Thomas from Tennessee,
“I couldn’t be happier for the results of the election. I’m also a gay male. And it was great turnout. I think everyone is freaking out about Trump taking away rights, and he’s obviously not. He just said it on ’60 Minutes’ last night that he’s not going to touch gay marriage. So I think everyone should probably calm down a little bit and take a step back.”
Thomas did not make any mention of Trump’s list of virulently anti-LGBT potential SCOTUS appointees who could overturn marriage equality and make life worse for LGBT people innumerable ways.
Alicia from Massachusetts, however, said for her part,
“I’m a transgender woman. I’m [expletive] terrified. Everybody else I know it too. There’s tons of backlash, tons of violent crimes happening against people like us. And we’re so visible. Most of the girls I know have been staying inside for days now trying to avoid going out and about. I went out today I couldn’t stop loving over my shoulder I was so afraid.”
Despite the apparent division among some LGBT voters over Trump, the president-elect actually garnered a historically low amount of support from the LGBT community–only 14% of the LGBT vote.
The Washington Blade reports on how that stacks up to previous election years:
In 2012, GOP presidential nominee Mitt Romney received 22 percent of the LGBT vote compared to 76 percent received by President Barack Obama in his re-election bid, according to the exit poll conducted that year.
The Election Day exit poll conducted in 2008 showed that Republican presidential nominee John McCain received 27 percent of the LGBT vote compared to 70 percent of the LGBT vote received by then Democratic Sen. Obama.

Now, 93 years later, it appears Williams — perhaps passing the time in-between shifts in the sterile corridors of Passaic General Hospital? — somehow prophesied the below Instagram posts during a moment of prescient whimsy:
As the likes of Bill Moyers pen eulogies to the American dream and spirit, perhaps these sort of puff pieces are just the antidote we need to bolster our hearts and spirits and whatever

This Trans Woman’s Car Was Vandalized, And The Community Leapt To Her Defense
This Trans Woman’s Car Was Vandalized, And The Community Leapt To Her Defense
To make her position clear, Amber Timmons wrote “love trumps hate” and “not my president” on her car windows shortly after the election.
But when the Denver woman woke up Wednesday morning, she found her car spray-painted with an array of death threats, swastikas, slurs, and “Trump.”
There was also the incoherent but not-quite-incoherent-enough message “fag die he she,” and “die” written next to a swastika.

According to Denverite, Timmons’ neighbors were quick to show support by leaving notes of support all over her window.
Timmons moved to Cheesman Park because she thought the area would be more accepting of her as a trans woman.
“Like I said on the back, love trumps hate,” she told Denverite. “You don’t fight hate with hate. You fight it with love.”
“I try to tell people that because of the Trump thing, it’s all coming back. It’s coming back hard.”

“We live in difficult times,” said Glenn Barrows, congregational administrator at First Unitarian Society of Denver.
It’s our position at First Unitarian, has been for decades — we are an island of sanity in a somewhat insane world and we are here for anyone who is marginalized. It’s not just about the congregation, it’s about the community and about the world.”
We will be here. We aren’t going anywhere. We will be here forever. Because we need to be.”
Denver police are currently investigating.
