* "Donald ‘Kill Their Families’ Trump Played Into al Qaeda’s Hands:" http://www.thedailybeast.com/articles/2017/01/31/donald-kill-their-families-trump-played-into-al-qaeda-s-hands.html

* The Trump administration insists that a Yemeni Houthi raid on a Saudi Arabian ship somehow proves that the Iranians, who weren't involved at all, have somehow broken their agreement with us, thus justifying us threatening to invade them. Spicer is also lying that the Presidential daily briefings are "just raw data" even though they are primarily analysis with raw data included if the President wants it as justification for why 45 doesn't bother with it preferring to get briefings from Flynn, who is notoriously gullible and whose judgement was so poor he believed that child trafficking fantasy about that Pizza Parlour in DC that conspiracy websites were peddling. I'm guessing maybe this is why they don't know Yemen and Iran are different countries or that the USA and Saudi Arabia are different countries? Still, couldn't they just look on a map or google "Is Saudi Arabia part of the united States?" Maybe they could spring for a map for the oval office? I have a nice one in my bathroom I got for less that $20.00 when I was teaching. I am betting given how much money 45 is making just breaking the emoluments clause he could easily spring for a much better one.

* I talked to her today, and they haven’t thrown out my paperwork. Apparently it was misfiled. IDK.

So it looks like if you are trans trying to change your name on your Pennsylvania birth certificate, etc,., expect a wait f 18 months or so. Maybe. Assuming they don’t make up more special rules.

Keep all your correspondence from them. If I hadn’t had my case file to hand today, I would not have been able to prove I had filed at all.

* I think it says something good about the protest movement that I could not get through to either of my Senators this morning to complain about the backbone shortage, because the phones were busy.

(My other scheduled phone bureaucracy was also fruitless. Ugh.)

* A friend informed me today that "Lord Dampnut" is an anagram for "Donald Trump.”
