Jonathan Joss' (actor from King of the Hill and Parks and Rec) husband has released a statement that amongst other things claims his murder was part of a homophobic attack. A high profile hate crime at the very start of Pride. Absolutely heart breaking.

Law enforcement officers should never cover their faces when making arrests or conceal their identities (unless they are working undercover). They work for us. We have a right to know who they are. These face coverings are frightening & unAmerican, as though they're ashamed of what they're doing.

The Media Continues Falling for Trump’s Theatre While Ukraine Burns My latest on the horror I witnessed this weekend as the media all but ignored Russia’s escalated genocidal assault on Ukraine until Trump weighed in with his theatrics that were taken as fact 🤦🏼‍♀️

President Trump showed a screenshot of a Reuters video taken in the Democratic Republic of Congo as part of what he falsely presented as evidence of mass killings of white South Africans. We Should Demand A Public Apology. This Administration, Packed With Liars and Cons, Is an American Disgrace 🤨
