In Tweetstorm, Trump Claims Russia Election Hacking is a ‘big Dem HOAX’
Donald Trump took to Twitter on Thursday with a new tantrum about the Russian hacking of the U.S. election.
Tweeted Trump: “Former Homeland Security Advisor Jeh Johnson is latest top intelligence official to state there was no grand scheme between Trump & Russia…By the way, if Russia was working so hard on the 2016 Election, it all took place during the Obama Admin. Why didn’t they stop them?…..Why did Democratic National Committee turn down the DHS offer to protect against hacks (long prior to election). It’s all a big Dem HOAX!…Why did the DNC REFUSE to turn over its Server to the FBI, and still hasn’t? It’s all a big Dem scam and excuse for losing the election!…I certainly hope the Democrats do not force Nancy P out. That would be very bad for the Republican Party – and please let Cryin’ Chuck stay!”

HRC Opposes Shameful, Secretive Proposal to Rip Health Coverage from Millions of Americans
HRC strongly condemned the Senate Republicans’ hatched-in-secret proposal to gut the Affordable Care Act (ACA) and undermine access to health care for as many as 23 million Americans. If it passes, this bill will have a disproportionately negative impact on LGBTQ people.
WATCH: HRC released a new video on the consequences for LGBTQ people.
“If the Trump-McConnell health care bill becomes law, it will threaten the lives of countless Americans,” said HRC President Chad Griffin. “For LGBTQ people, who already face health care disparities, this proposal is downright dangerous. Both the House and Senate versions of the bill gut core provisions of the Affordable Care Act and cut off tens of millions of Americans from life-saving health care coverage while increasing out-of-pocket costs. This unconscionable proposal — drafted behind closed doors, without public input — is a disturbingly harmful bill that Senators must reject.”
Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell has led an unprecedented covert approach to passing a bill that would affect millions of Americans and one-sixth of the American economy. After working behind closed doors, without public input and keeping both their constituents and health care advocates in the dark, they are now planning to ram through a bill without a single hearing and no meaningful time for health care experts and the American people to review, understand, and debate.
Because of the ACA, thousands of low-income people living with HIV have been able to obtain health insurance through the Medicaid expansion. This critical coverage ensures that people living with HIV have access to the lifesaving treatments. The so-called “Better Care Reconciliation Act” proposes drastic changes to Medicaid and it will strip many of these people, and the most vulnerable among us, of essential health care coverage.
This bill will disproportionately impact LGBTQ Americans, leaving them with some of the lowest rates of insurance coverage in the nation. The LGBTQ community has benefitted from the ACA’s tax credit structure and the Medicaid Expansion, and the rescission of both of these critical components will have devastating consequences for a community already facing significant health care disparities.
In another dangerous move, the Senate bill would also cut federal funding for Planned Parenthood, which would jeopardize the ability of clinics to deliver preventive health services, including HIV testing and transition-related care. The ACA’s public health and prevention fund, established to expand investments in the nation’s public health infrastructure, would also be repealed. Health centers, like those operated by Planned Parenthood, often offer the only culturally competent healthcare available, especially in rural and isolated areas.
5 Reasons Why Repealing ACA is Terrible for the LGBTQ Community
Before the ACA was passed LGBTQ people had some of the lowest rates of coverage in the nation. Now, many LGBTQ people have health insurance for the first time – ever. If the ACA goes away coverage for millions of LGBTQ people will too— making health care an expensive luxury that too many in our community just can’t afford.
Amy Poehler and Seth Meyers ‘Really’ Rip Trump Supporters, Ted Nugent, Ann Coulter, and Hillary Haters: WATCH
Amy Poehler joined Seth Meyers on Late Night last night for a new segment of “Really” in which the enthusiastic pair took several people to task, including Ann Coulter, Hillary haters, Ted Nugent, and the Republican protester who interrupted a Trump-themed production of Julius Caesar to yell at the cast.
Said Poehler:
“Really. Really, protester? Now let me get this right. You waited in line to get tickets to a play you already hated. And then you watched it for three hours and then you ran on stage to protest. But not the president. Someone who was dressed like the president from getting pretend stabbed with a fake knife. Really? I commend you. You know if you want to change this country you can’t just sit around your house yelling at a tv, you have to get out there and yell at a play.”
Added Meyers: “And really, if this portrayal was offensive to anyone, it’s Caesar. Caesar was beloved by the Roman Empire.To put it another way, he won the popular vote.”
Poehler also had some choice words for Ted Nugent: “You suck Ted Nugent. Your songs suck. And ‘Cat Scratch Fever’ is such a dumbass, stupid song, you dick! So dumb. Your music stinks!”
