Did you ever wonder what makes a man like Donald Trump?

Ever wonder what made Trump the way he is — vicious, uncaring, filled with hate, ignorant, unwilling to learn, unable to accept that he is wrong?

The answer is in a few lines from the 1993 movie Tombstone in an exchange between the characters playing Wyatt Earp and Doc Holliday.

Wyatt Earp: What makes a man like Ringo, Doc? What makes him do the things he does?

Doc Holliday: A man like Ringo has got a great big hole, right in the middle of him. He can never kill enough, or steal enough, or inflict enough pain to ever fill it.

Wyatt Earp: What does he need?

Doc Holliday: Revenge.

Wyatt Earp: For what?

Doc Holliday: Bein’ born.

Kansas sends letters to transgendered people, ordering them to surrender their driver’s licenses

https://www.erininthemorning.com/p/kansas-sends-letters-to-trans-people

Today, transgender people across Kansas are reporting receiving letters from the Kansas Division of Vehicles stating that they must surrender their driver’s licenses and that their current credentials will be considered invalid upon the law’s publication in the Kansas Register on Thursday. Should any transgender person be caught driving without a valid license, they could face a class B misdemeanor carrying up to six months in jail and a $1,000 fine. Kansas already requires county jails to house inmates according to sex assigned at birth. The letter, obtained by Erin in the Morning, marks one of the most significant erosions of transgender civil rights in the United States to date.

The letter, which has been reported to Erin In The Morning by a Kansas-based activist, states that under House Substitute for Senate Bill 244, Kansas-issued driver’s licenses and identification cards must now reflect the credential holder’s “sex at birth.” It warns that upon the law’s publication in the Kansas Register on Thursday, February 26, current credentials for affected individuals “will no longer be valid.” The Legislature, the letter notes, “did not include a grace period for updating credentials,” and anyone operating a vehicle without a valid credential “may be subject to additional penalties.” Those whose gender marker does not match their sex assigned at birth are directed to surrender their current credential to the Division of Vehicles for reissuance.

Here’s a copy of the letter.

In Hitler’s Germany, it started with throwing rocks at Jews and calling them names.
