The 7-year-old Guatemalan girl that died earlier this month was in CBP custody for almost 24 hours before she died; for 8 hours before she started seizing.

She died of dehydration.

Lmao Trump has a new ad airing on CNN asking viewers to call and leave a message thanking him (before being redirected to donate to his campaign).

The number's 1-800-684-3043. Be sure to leave him a message reminding him what a racist, small, ugly, wannabe-authoritarian, cretinous subhuman monster he is, that he and his family are the slime of humanity and that all put together they are not worth a quarter of a single one of the brown people he's barring from our southern border! Happy holidays!

Last Monday, on #WorldSuicidePreventionDay, the Brady Center to Prevent Gun Violence released a new report which shows that 63 people die by suicide with a gun every day.

In 2016, the nearly 23,000 suicides by gun accounted for about twice as many deaths from suicide by suffocation, three times by poisoning, and 20 times more than intentional falls.

Attempted suicide by gun results in death 85% of the time, compared to just 3% for other methods.

About 20 veterans die by suicide in the U.S. every day; approximately two-thirds of them use a gun.

More than two children and teens a day shoot and kill themselves, half of whom are under the age of 16.

You can read the full report below.

I told myself I wasn't going to say anything about Hugh Hefner's death.

2017-09-29T12:06:00.000-06:00

I told myself I wasn't going to say anything about Hugh Hefner's death. I mean, sure he declared himself a feminist while making his fortune off "sex positivity," women's bodies, and centering men, but I figured, he's still a person that people loved and I don't need to dogpile less than 24 hours after his death. But this story about him buying the crypt next to Marilyn Monroe is beyond vile.

Hefner was the ultimate false-ally fuckboy. His legacy lives on in every "progressive" faux-feminist bro who spouts left-wing ideology because it gets him laid but actually doesn't put much thought or work into the actual causes and is generally an unreliable ally with dogshit opinions beneath the superficial activism. It lives on all the professional photographers whose work consists entirely of photos of naked or mostly naked women (and EXCLUSIVELY women), devoid of any artistic worth, completely exploitative in nature.

I am pretty fucking far from a sexual prude. I'm pro-sex, pro-porn, and an ardent supporter of sex workers. The sexual liberation movement of the '60s was led by trans people, queer people, and feminist women. Hugh Hefner exploited & objectified women, made money off their bodies, apologized for and helped rapists and then called himself a feminist. He pushed the "ideal" woman as white and helped propagate the image of women of color as being undesirable, yet called himself not racist. He made millions off of glorification of heteronormativity and pushed a sex-based culture then called himself an ally.

The Marilyn Monroe burial story is NOT ROMANTIC. It's gross as hell. To insert yourself where you don't belong because you assume you have innate power & control over women—this is the culture that Hefner represents. A culture that demeans & exploits women, often without consent. He dated women two generations younger than him and sold a shitload of cheap hypersexualized merchandise to young girls. Let that be this creep's fucking legacy: the Playboy logo stretched across the ass of a pre-teen, and a pathetic leering older man who thinks he's more distinguished than he is and that he can fuck her.

So in other words, our president.

2016-11-10T04:29:00.000-07:00

To all those who told me they prefer to politic not with politicians but with activists or something roughly to that effect over the course of this election: well, now because of your refusal to do the former, you'll get your chance to do the latter.

Unfortunately while we're fighting the good fight now meanwhile Roe v. Wade, the EPA, Department of Education, Affordable Care Act, Dodd-Frank, gay marriage, the Iran nuclear deal, the Paris climate accords, food stamps & extended unemployment insurance will all be eliminated; Medicare & Social Security will be privatized; filibuster will be repealed; laws restricting the 1st amendment will be passed and journalists will be jailed.

But I sincerely hope I'll see you at all the rallies & protests like the one last night in the coming years, since I conspicuously haven't seen you at any events before the election…

Signed,
An aging but reactivated activist.

The short version is Trump used a dubiously legal loophole where he lost others' money, strongarmed them into forgiving the debt, then claimed their losses as his own.

The loophole was later closed by Congress. Among the Senators voting to finally do so: Hillary Clinton.
