ANYBODY BUT TRUMP 2016: At a rally for Donald Trump, a Trump supporter actually punched a protester, as the protester was leaving.
Remember when we were like, maybe there won’t be enough Democratic presidential debates? LOL: Hilary and Bernie debated again last night. From FiveThirtyEight: “One other thing that became clear from tonight’s debate is that Clinton and Sanders are getting on one another’s nerves. In the last debate, Sanders snapped at Clinton for interrupting him. This time Clinton snapped at Sanders for interrupting her. That’s a far cry from the squabbling in the Republican debates, but it’s clear that both of them recognize they have a lot on the line.”
I HATE IT WHEN MOM AND DAD FIGHT

UGH UGH UGH UGH UGH: The Indiana legislature just passed another bullshit anti-choice bill, reports Jezebel. How bullshit are we talking? It would require women to pay for “the burial or cremation” of fetal remains from their procedure. Because I guess bill author Rep. Casey Cox (R-Fort Wayne) does not live in the real world? MOVING ON.

Today, in #FreeKesha: Pebe Sebert, mother of the artist formerly known as Ke$ha, has spoken out at Billboard against her daughter’s allegedly abusive producer, Dr. Luke. Nothing she says is surprising—it’s awful!—but what is? Former Runaways bassist Jackie Fuchs’ statement that Kesha’s public allegations against Dr. Luke inspired her to make her own abuse known; she was allegedly drugged and raped by slimy-as-fuck former Runaways manager Kim Fowley in 1975, because the industry isn’t safe. Fuchs told Billboard, “She’s making a difference. If this hadn’t come out, I wouldn’t have come forward.”
Coming to Portland: Dave Chappelle!
