Alexander Leon, an Australia-based writer and activist who works at the LGBTQ rights organization Kaleidoscope Trust, on what it means to grow up gay:
“Queer people don’t grow up as ourselves, we grow up playing a version of ourselves that sacrifices authenticity to minimize humiliation & prejudice. The massive task of our adult lives is to unpick which parts of ourselves are truly us & which parts we’ve created to protect us. It’s massive and existential and difficult, but I’m convinced that being confronted with the need for profound self-discovery so explicitly (and often early in life!) is a gift in disguise. We come out the other end wiser & truer to ourselves. Some cis/het people never get there. All of this is to say—be kind to yourself. Discovering who you really are is an enormous task it doesn’t happen overnight, nor does it happen without some hiccups along the way. Be patient, be compassionate, be vulnerable and exist loudly. And most of all –be proud!”
This went viral on social media because it truly breaks down what it means to grow up gay and be closeted and discover yourself and be happy.

Seth Meyers, Late Night host, on Fox & Friend’s host Ainsley Earhardt flip-flopping on the FBI:
“_____ supporters are self-serving hypocrites who defend intelligence agencies when they want to bomb other countries but attack them when they investigate the president’s crimes [or] Earhardt has an evil twin.”
No, there’s just one Ainsley Earhardt, but she’s a flip-flopping, goose-stepping, Fox News lying hypocrite.

Mike Pompeo, trying and failing miserably to explain what the “imminent threat” was that led to the killing of General Qassem Soleimani:
“We know what happened at the end of last year in December, ultimately leading to the death of an American. If you are looking for imminence, you need look no further than the days that led up to the strike.”
Gibberish. Lies. Excuses.
You murdered a man to take the eyes off impeachment and the fact your boss is an unhinged traitor.
Just like you are, Mike.

Tucker Carlson, Fox News, criticizing _____’s assassination of Soleimani:
“Washington has wanted war with Iran for decades. They still want it now. Let’s hope they haven’t finally gotten it. What happened yesterday wasn’t just another symbolic bombing, it was a pivot point. Neocons in Washington understood that immediately. No one in Washington is in a mood for big-picture questions right now. Questions, the obvious ones like: Is Iran really the greatest threat we face? And who’s actually benefiting from this? And why are we continuing to ignore the decline of our own country in favor of jumping into another quagmire from which there is no obvious exit? By the way, if we’re still in Afghanistan 19 years, sad years later, what makes us think there’s a quick way out of Iran … ?”
Another Fox News goose-stepper changing their tune? I won’t hold my breath; it’s Tucker Carlson, after all.

Andrew Napolitano, Fox News legal analyst on what the Democrats should do about impeaching _____ again:
“If I were a Democrat in the House, I would be moving to re-open the impeachment on the basis of the newly-acquired evidence, these new emails of people getting instructions directly from the president to hold up on the sending of the funds. That would justify holding the articles of impeachment, because there’s new evidence and perhaps new articles. If I were a Republican in the Senate, I would go about my business as if there had been no articles of impeachment. Because until those articles of impeachment come over to the Senate, there is nothing for the Senate to do.”
Well, not exactly true, because _____’s butt boys, Moscow Mitch and Leningrad Lindsey are trying to change the rules regarding the trial and not calling any witnesses.
Imagine a mob boss directing his own trial.
That’s _____ and the GOP-controlled Senate.

Steve Schmidt, former GOP strategist, on Lindsey Graham:
“People always try to analyze Lindsey through the prism of the manifest inconsistencies that exist between things that he used to believe and what he’s doing now. The way to understand him is to look at what’s consistent. And essentially what he is in American politics is what, in the aquatic world, would be a pilot fish; a smaller fish that hovers about a larger predator, like a shark, living off its detritus. That’s Lindsey. And when he swam around the McCain, broadly viewed as a virtuous and good shark, Lindsey took on the patina of virtue. But wherever the apex shark is, you find the Lindsey fish hovering about, and _____ is the newest shark in the sea. Lindsey has a real draw to power—but he’s found it unattainable on his own merits.”
The most perfect description of goose-stepping Miss Lindsey that I’ve ever heard.
