Bob Woodward’s ‘Fear’, Jon Kyl, Ronan Farrow, Ruby Slippers, The Cher Show, Ellen DeGeneres, Rahm Emanuel, Carrie Underwood: HOT LINKS



FEAR. Bob Woodward book is a terrifying look inside the Trump White House: ‘The 448-page book was obtained by The Washington Post. Woodward, an associate editor at The Post, sought an interview with Trump through several intermediaries to no avail. The president called Woodward in early August, after the manuscript had been completed, to say he wanted to participate. The president complained that it would be a “bad book,” according to an audio recording of the conversation. Woodward replied that his work would be “tough,” but factual and based on his reporting. A central theme of the book is the stealthy machinations used by those in Trump’s inner sanctum to try to control his impulses and prevent disasters, both for the president personally and for the nation he was elected to lead.’ Trump on Jeff Sessions: “This guy is mentally retarded. He’s this dumb Southerner. He couldn’t even be a one-person country lawyer down in Alabama.” Woodward on Trump: “Mattis was particularly exasperated and alarmed, telling close associates that the president acted like — and had the understanding of — ‘a fifth- or sixth-grader.’” John Kelly on Trump: “He’s an idiot. It’s pointless to try to convince him of anything. He’s gone off the rails. We’re in Crazytown. I don’t even know why any of us are here. This is the worst job I’ve ever had.”

White House Press Secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders released a statement on the Woodward book: “This book is nothing more than fabricated stories, many by former disgruntled employees, told to make the President look bad. While it is not always pretty, and rare that the press actually covers it, President Trump has broken through the bureaucratic process to deliver unprecedented successes for the American people. Sometimes it is unconventional, but he always gets results. Democrats and their allies in the media understand the President’s policies are working and with success like this, no one can beat him in 2020 – not even close.”

Doug Ducey is scheduled to unveil the 76-year-old as McCain’s successor at a 10 a.m. news conference at the Arizona Capitol, after notifying McCain’s wife, Cindy, and other key political figures of his decision. Kyl, who served alongside McCain during his 18 years in the U.S. Senate, will fly to Washington, D.C., following Ducey’s announcement.

NO PLACE LIKE HOME. Pair of ruby slippers stolen from Wizard of Oz recovered after 13 years. “The FBI recovered the slippers that had been stolen in 2005 from the Judy Garland Museum in Grand Rapids, Minnesota, authorities said Tuesday.

A press conference is scheduled Tuesday afternoon with officials from the Minneapolis FBI, the North Dakota U.S. Attorney’s Office and the Grand Rapids Police Department.”

THE CHER SHOW. Cher talks to the NYT about her career and the new musical about her life: “You have to know something more about me after the musical. That’s important to me. Listen, I didn’t have a play about myself before, and I was living very happily. So, I want it to be true and fun and like life is: Sometimes you’re great, and sometimes you’re pathetic. Sometimes you’re tired, and sometimes you break down. It should be like that. And nothing should be glossed over.”

HRC Mourns Dejanay Stanton, a Trans Woman Killed in Chicago

HRC Mourns Dejanay Stanton, a Trans Woman Killed in Chicago

The deaths of Dejanay Stanton and Vontashia Bell underscore the urgent need to address the epidemic of violence against the transgender community across the U.S. Stanton and Bell, both Black transgender women, were killed on August 30 — Stanton in Chicago, and Bell in Louisiana.

Stanton, 24, was found with a gunshot wound to her head and transported to Stroger Hospital where she was pronounced dead, according to media reports. After an autopsy on Friday, her death was ruled a homicide, the Chicago Sun-Times reported, and the investigation is ongoing.

Friends and advocates took to social media to mourn Stanton’s death, describing her as special and a sweet person.

“Every time you saw her she had a smile on her face,” said LaSaia Wade, executive director of Brave Space Alliance. “She was just trying to live her best life as a young girl.”

On Friday night, many of Stanton’s loved ones and community members gathered near the site of her murder to release balloons in her honor and call for justice for her death.

“As I’m seeing all these post about my sister I could tell she was (loved) by many,” Stanton’s brother Darius wrote on Facebook. “She was the back bone to some of y’all… Even (though) we didn’t have much, she offered it all.”

Sadly, Stanton’s death marks the 18th known killing of a transgender or non-binary person this year. In a deeply troubling pattern, the victims have all too often been killed by gun violence.

Last fall, the HRC Foundation and the Trans People of Color Coalition released a comprehensive report detailing this tragic epidemic that made 2017 the deadliest year on record for transgender people.

Supreme Court Justice Nominee Brett Kavanaugh: Picking up where Scalia left off?

Supreme Court Justice Nominee Brett Kavanaugh: Picking up where Scalia left off?

Today, the confirmation hearings for the next Supreme Court Justice begin in D.C., where Judge Kavanaugh, Trump’s nominee, may be confirmed to the Supreme Court for a lifetime appointment—a decision that will have an impact for decades.

But what kind of Justice will Brett Kavanaugh be? His record has still largely not been made public, itself a concerning factor during this nomination process. Instead, advocates must look to his public statements and endorsements to get a sense of his political views. And they’re not looking good.

Judge Kavanaugh has described the notoriously homophobic Justice Antonin Scalia, as a “hero” and a “judicial role model,” and praised his dissent in Obergefell v. Hodges —the landmark ruling that made same-sex marriage legal in all fifty states. Throughout his career, Justice Scalia spoke extensively about his hostility towards LGBTQ people, and was unwavering in his comparison of homosexuality to murder. In his dissent in Obergefell v. Hodges, Scalia argued that the legalization of marriage equality was a “threat to American democracy” that “robs the People of… the freedom to govern themselves.” What did Judge Kavanaugh think of that?

He praised Scalia’s dissent.

Brett Kavanaugh wants to pick up where Justice Antonin Scalia left off. Throughout his career, Justice Scalia was hostile towards LGBTQ people, comparing gay rights to murder, and saying marriage equality was a “threat to American democracy.” pic.twitter.com/cct8DByBTp

— GLAAD (@glaad) September 4, 2018

GLAAD has sent to media background information on Scalia’s “worst hits”, which are included below. A role model? They’re not the kind of American values we’d expect an incoming Supreme Court Justice to support.

Furthermore, while serving in the George W. Bush administration, Kavanaugh worked closely with the team that pushed for the so-called Federal Marriage Amendment, which would have defined marriage in the United States as a union of one man and one woman under federal law. He’s also received support and endorsements from the Family Research Council (FRC), which has been designated an anti-LGBTQ hate group by the Southern Poverty Law Center; and the Federalist Society, which has produced materials arguing against every major LGBTQ policy proposal, including the Employment Non Discrimination Act and transgender accommodations.

Kavanaugh was also vetted, and is considered to be a “stellar” judge, by  the virulently anti-LGBTQ Heritage Foundation, which has claimed that marriage equality would make people less monogamous, increase abortions, and eventually lead to “group marriage,” and consistently opposes transgender rights.   

President Trump’s concerning selection of Brett Kavanaugh, and his record of appointing anti-LGBTQ federal judges, has put hard won LGBTQ rights and protections in jeopardy. In response, GLAAD Campus Ambassador Tony Hernandez went to Capitol Hill to personally hand-deliver questions about Judge Kavanaugh’s past remarks and endorsements, and ask the 21 members of the U.S. Senate Judiciary Committee to confront Judge Kavanaugh with these questions during the confirmation hearing process.

GLAAD is encouraging people to contact their Senators and ask them to support pro-equality judicial nominations and oppose Kavanaugh’s confirmation at our Amp Your Voice Action Center.

Read more about Justice Scalia’s Appalling Anti-LGBTQ Record:

— Dissenting in a 1996 ruling in favor of state’s rights to ban LGB discrimination, Scalia equated gay rights with heinous acts, writing that he “had thought that one could consider certain conduct reprehensible — murder, for example, or polygamy, or cruelty to animals — and could exhibit even ‘animus’ toward such conduct”

Defended his comparison of homosexuality to murder: “It’s a form of argument that I thought you would have known, which is called the ‘reduction to the absurd. If we cannot have moral feelings against homosexuality, can we have it against murder? Can we have it against other things?”

Dismissed court protections of gay rights by sarcastically asking, “What about pederasts?”…“What about child abusers?”

Didn’t believe gay sex was protected by constitutional right to privacy: “Homosexual sodomy? Come on. For 200 years, it was criminal in every state”

Warned in his 2003 Lawrence v. Texas dissent that decriminalizing sodomy would lead to legalizing bestiality, incest, and more: “State laws against bigamy, same-sex marriage, adult incest, prostitution, masturbation, adultery, fornication, bestiality, and obscenity are likewise sustainable only in light of Bowers’ validation of laws based on moral choices. Every single one of these laws is called into question by today’s decision; the Court makes no effort to cabin the scope of its decision to exclude them from its holding.”

Called the Supreme Court’s 2015 legalization of marriage equality a “threat to American democracy” that “robs the People of… the freedom to govern themselves.”

Wrote in his Lawrence dissent: “Many Americans do not want persons who openly engage in homosexual conduct as partners in their business, as scoutmasters for their children, as teachers in their children’s schools, or as boarders in their home. They view this as protecting themselves and their families from a lifestyle that they believe to be immoral and destructive.”

— Also in Lawrence, he noted that the ban on sodomy “undoubtedly imposes constraints on liberty,” before defending that ban by saying, “So do laws prohibiting prostitution, recreational use of heroin, and, for that matter, working more than 60 hours per week in a bakery.”

Wrote of bans on gay sex: “Men and women, heterosexuals and homosexuals, are all subject to [Texas’] prohibition of deviate sexual intercourse with someone of the same sex.”

Incorrectly claimed that sociologists are engaged in great debate about the legitimacy of gay parents: “If you redefine marriage to include same-sex couples, you must permit adoption by same-sex couples, and there’s considerable disagreement among sociologists as to what the consequences of raising a child in a single-sex family [are]. Some States do not do not permit adoption by same-sex couples for that reason.”

Calgary Pride Parade 92 – Beautiful faces

Calgary Pride Parade 92 – Beautiful faces

benlarhome posted a photo:

Calgary Pride Parade 92 - Beautiful faces

Calgary celebrates Pride a bit late in the season… the week ending on Labour Day in September, parka weather for some. On the grand scale of things, Calgary’s LGBT community is not huge, and there isn’t a physical “village” or neighbourhood or centre that is considered to be our “gay central,” and there’s only 1 gay bar in town (I think, as Larry and I don’t get out that much). People connect in different ways. But I do enjoy going to the Pride Parade and celebration space on Prince’s Island, and all the energy, spirit, colour and fun that goes along with that. This might be a large upload, so apologies in advance to those not fascinated… There will be documentary photos just capturing what I saw, and others that are just interesting in and of themselves.
