The two most overall impactful political news items of the evening have to be Ralph Northam's (pictured, left) big win over Republican flunkie Ed Gillespie for the governorship of Virginia, followed by Phil Murphy creaming Chris Christie's Lt. Gov. Kim Guadagno for the governorship of New Jersey.

But there is such a thing as optics — the thinking man's karma — and nobody had a better-looking win than fabulous Danica Roem.

In the same way that there were Jews who colluded with the Nazis in WWII (and continue to do so today, within Trump's Cabinet), there are gays for Trump.

Deplorable Pride was denied a spot in Sunday's Charlotte Pride march, so they're staging their own “non-confrontational, peaceful demonstration” 30 minutes beforehand.

Banned for supporting an explicitly anti-LGBT Administration, the group's leader whines, “Come and show your support for your fellow Trump supporters who are LGBT and are being persecuted by their own gay community.” Newsflash: You're not a member of our community. You just suck dick.

Jackie Hoffman of Feud is pulling  Joan Crawford, phoning all her Emmy rivals, offering to accept on their behalf in the eventuality that any of the other women win:

The late Shane Tomlinson (Image via social media)

Pictures of Shane Tomlinson, one of 49 people who perished a year ago in the Pulse gay nightclub massacre, have allegedly been used in a romance scheme by an unidentified catfisher, one woman claims.

North Carolina Miss Lonelyhearts Ashley Pickenpack told WKMG that she realized the man she'd been talking with online — discussing marriage! — was using phony images when she saw Tomlinson's face in anniversary coverage of the Pulse shooting.

She said she knew the man by the name Thomas Gregory, and understood that he lived in England.

The FBI is reportedly investigating.
