An unnamed transgender woman, thought to be in her twenties or thirties, was walking along Harbor Boulevard in Santa Ana, CA, at about 3am yesterday, when she was shot in the back by a man who she said was Hispanic, with a grey hat.
After sharing that much information, the victim declined to cooperate further with the investigation.
I watch The Voice because my Daughter makes me, but in truth there are many talented people who appear on that show. Christina Grimmie was one of them that was a favorite of both my daughter and I.
Dreamers like the story of the pebble that falls from a tiny ledge to hit a slightly larger rock that is balanced on the verge of toppling off a slightly larger ledge. If the conditions downslope are just right that tiny disturbance generates an enormous cascade.
I watched the Maher show earlier this morning, and the followup on Youtube. The guests included Barbara Boxer, Katie Packer, Andrew Ross Sorkin, Ana Marie Cox and Tom Morello (Rage Against the Machine). The latter was basically the lone sane voice, when it came to the brief discussion of capitalism and socialism, both during the show and "overtime." But he was all but shouted down when he tried to school the panelists and Maher on their errors.
You know this whole unity campaign the Democrats have rolled out the past few days hasn't gone well so far. It's killing Elizabeth Warren, I hear. People are just a little bit too angry about, well, you know, a certain stolen election, and I don't think that is gonna change by November.
Ah, but I have a solution.
OK, sure. There is certainly huge differences in style between Clinton and Trump.

But how different are their other policies?
I read this post earlier today, and was 'inspired' by its eye-brow raising implications:

Steven D summarizies the study results, with which I agree:
Holy shit.
This is not a good look for Hillary Clinton or the Clinton Foundation.

Watching the party apparatus close the doors with a deafening clang with we are all one, Kumbaya, look it's a love in! Bleech.
The problem with revolutionary ideas is that they belong to nobody, they are not just shut down with words, they demand actions.
Matt Taibbi gets this:
Rowan Elijah Feldhaus submitted a name change petition which Columbia County Superior Court Judge J. David Roper rejected. Rowan's previous name had been Rebeccah Elizabeth Feldhaus.
The question presented is whether a female has the salutatory right to change her name to a traditionally and obviously male name. The court concludes that she does not have such right.
--Judge Roper
Lambda Legal submitted a filing to the Georgia Court of Appeals challenging the denial yesterday.
