And another day of Trump joking (though you know it wasn’t really a joke) about Native American genocide comes to a close:

“We build statues out of snow, and weep to see them melt.” -- Walter Scott

Elizabeth Warren makes presidential bid official with call for change.

Trump responds with his usual hateful, racist rhetoric, and even tips his hat to The Trail of Tears. Whether you like Warren or not, there is no reason to be a racist white privileged fuckwad when speaking about her...or anyone. Ever.

Ivanka Trump told ABC News that she knew “literally almost nothing” about her family’s secret pursuit of a deal to build a Trump-branded tower in Moscow during the 2016 campaign. Her claim, however, is contradicted by various sources.

Republican congressmen send letter pleading for Dems to stop hunt for Donald Trump's tax returns. They really do want to keep that shit hidden, don’t they?

Fairfax denies sexual assault allegations, asks for due process and full investigation.

Amid a measles outbreak that has sickened more than 50, Washington lawmakers consider bill that would remove parents' ability to claim a personal or philosophical exemption to opt their school-age children out of combined measles, mumps and rubella vaccine. Um, do it. Should’ve been that way to begin with. Someone’s ignorance or religion should not endanger public health.

Shocking Video Shows Florida Sheriff’s Deputy Calling a Black Man “Boy” and Grabbing Him by the Neck. The man was quietly sitting on the sidewalk with a baby in his arms. The deputy is a racist fuckwad. And he’s still “serving the public.”

Trump campaign paid legal fees to firm representing Jared Kushner.

Climate change is already making Atlantic hurricanes more fierce, study finds.

Hundreds rally to preserve right not to vaccinate children amid measles outbreak. I’d like to say this is Darwinism at work here, but the children don’t get a say in this. They are simply at the mercy of their parent’s stupidity. It’s unfortunate children don’t get to choose their parents.

A man with autism, behaving violently, winds up in the ER. The officers on duty respond — by singing and dancing.

Growth of private school voucher program impacts public school funds. With more private schools opting in to voucher programs each year and families continuing to use loopholes in the law, public school funds are flowing to private schools at an increasing rate. Because it’s really not about what’s best for the public.

Earth's magnetic north pole is hurtling toward Russia so fast that it could be a problem for smartphone maps and navigation systems.

Yes, having sex makes you better at your job. Engaging in an activity like sex that feeds the pleasure and reward centers of your brain helps you feel happier and more motivated the next day. Just thought you all should know. There needs to be more sex happening in the world.

20,000 birds just starved to death off the Dutch coast and no one knows why.

Both Uranus and Neptune have seasons that can last for decades and their storms can be larger than the United States.

“You’re all right, as long as you don’t believe your own hype.” -- Suzi Quatro

Life’s short. Live, love, create, and help others.

Until next time, my friends. Good night.
