STACEY ABRAMS.“It was not a free and fair election.”
JAMAL KHASHOGGI. Trump stands by Saudi murderers: ‘“It could very well be that the crown prince had knowledge of this tragic event — maybe he did and maybe he didn’t!” Mr. Trump said in a remarkable, eight-paragraph, exclamation-point laden statement that appeared calculated to end debate over the American response to Mr. Khashoggi’s killing.’
THE PLAN. Sec’y of State Mike Pompeo hand-delivered a plan from the Trump administration to shield Mohammed bin Salman from the Khashoggi murder fallout. ‘Mike Pompeo delivered the plan in person during a meeting with Saudi King Salman and his son, Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman, last month in Riyadh, said the source, who is familiar with Pompeo’s talks with the Saudi leaders. The plan includes an option to pin the Saudi journalist’s murder on an innocent member of the ruling al-Saud family in order to insulate those at the very top, the source told MEE.’
NOT FUNNY. The White House Correspondents Dinner will do without a comedian this year.
SETH MOULTON. Town Hall pushback for opposing Pelosi: ‘Moulton (D-Mass.) and some of his constituents say the midterm elections show that it’s time for new leadership in the House, while his critics on Monday night called his opposition to Pelosi a product of sexism and ageism.’
NOT FALLING OFF THING OF THE DAY. Caitlyn Jenner’s face.
MASSACHUSETTS. Legal recreational marijuana sales begin: ‘At the New England Treatment Access shop in Northampton, the wait time as of 11 a.m. appeared to be around two and a half hours. Hundreds — possibly even a thousand — customers were queuing up as of early Tuesday afternoon. NETA officials said they expect a line all day long and another rush after work hours, but they warned that people who show up around 8:30 p.m. might not get to the front of the line before the store closes at 10 p.m.
SEX AND THE CITY 3. The plot that might have been.
$3.9 MILLION. The amount Ivanka Trump made from Trump’s DC hotel in 2017: ‘President Donald Trump’s daughter and adviser Ivanka Trump made $3.9 million in profit last year off her stake in the Trump International Hotel, while taking in at least $5 million from businesses connected to her personal brand, a newly released financial disclosure shows.’
HER EMAILS. House Democrats plan to investigate: ‘The House Oversight Committee plans to investigate whether Ivanka Trump violated federal law by using a personal email account for government business, the panel’s incoming chairman, Rep. Elijah E. Cummings (D-Md.), said Tuesday. In a statement, Cummings said the committee launched a bipartisan investigation last year into White House officials’ use of personal email accounts, but the White House did not provide the requested information.
BRIAN. A pet psychic told Chris Colfer his dying cat wants him to shut up. “If you want him to die in peace, he’s asking you to shut up.”
SALVATION ARMY. Bell ringers have been told to not make their anti-gay opinions known: “Salvation Army personnel have been told to stop posting their opinions about gay marriage, abortion or anything political on social media because it might reflect poorly on the organization, according to an internal email and guidelines obtained by the Todd Starnes Radio Show.”
THANKSGIVING DEBATE TIPS OF THE DAY. From Chris Wallace.
MORTIFYING MOMENT OF THE DAY. Mariah Carey and Meryl Streep’s chair.
TRAILER OF THE DAY. The Lego Movie 2.
TOO HOT FOR TUESDAY. Nyle DiMarco

National Adoption Month Q&A With HRC Youth Ambassador Roddy Biggs
National Adoption Month Q&A With HRC Youth Ambassador Roddy Biggs
Post submitted by Sula Malina, Children, Youth & Families Program Coordinator
This National Adoption Month, HRC sat down with Roddy Biggs, an HRC Foundation Youth Ambassador from Knoxville, Tennessee, to learn about his experiences with foster care and adoption as a young LGBTQ person.
Biggs, who uses both he/him/his and they/them/theirs pronouns, is a proud LGBTQ advocate working to end bullying and suicide. Biggs transformed their negative experiences after coming out as gay at age 12 into action, going on to lead both his high school and college GSAs. He now works to promote the message that it’s important to never give up.
As you prepare to finish your time as an HRC Foundation Youth Ambassador, tell us about your experiences with the program.
My experience as an HRC Youth Ambassador has been truly life-changing. As I look back on the work I have done, I am blown away by not only all that I have achieved, but who I have become as a person. I found a new family at HRC and a new outlook for myself and the world around me. I am honored to have had such an opportunity to learn and grow alongside some of the most amazing people I have ever known, and I look forward to seeing where life takes me.
This November, we celebrate National Adoption Month. Can you tell us a little bit about your experiences with adoption as an LGBTQ person?
I was adopted at a very young age after being in the foster care system as a baby. Luckily, when I came out as gay at the age of 12, my adoptive family was mostly supportive of who I was. In time, they learned to embrace my queer identity.
What’s your message to child welfare providers who want to support LGBTQ youth but might not know where to start?
Reach out to HRC for help. HRC has tons of research, resources and even programs in place that can help you get started. LGBTQ youth, like all the other youth you work with, are just kids who are longing to be seen, heard and loved — and it’s your job to make that happen.
What’s your message to other young LGBTQ folks who have been or hope to be adopted?
My wish for you is that you know you are loved, and that there are people like me who care for you. If you ever need help, know that there are folks all over the world, including HRC, who can and will be there for you to help point you in the right direction. Don’t give up, stay strong and remember that you are beyond beautiful just the way you are.
The HRC Foundation Youth Ambassadors are a group of inspiring young people from across the country who show courage in sharing their stories and demonstrate a commitment to speaking out about issues facing LGBTQ youth. As Youth Ambassadors, they represent the HRC Foundation, using their voices to raise awareness about HRC’s youth-focused programs. Learn more.
