RACE WAR<\/strong>. Trump wants to start one, says Omarosa. \u201cEvery single time he had some type of issue with the community, I was there.\u00a0The one thing I realized once I was there was he was disingenuous to his commitment to diversity.\u201d<\/p>\n WIGSTOCK<\/strong>. It\u2019s back, and Lady Bunny and Neil Patrick Harris are involved<\/a>.<\/p>\n RIP<\/strong>. John Glines, who helped bring Torch Song Trilogy to Broadway<\/a>: \u2018Mr. Glines had long been committed to producing and writing plays with gay<\/a> characters and gay<\/a> themes that would appeal to a broad audience. To have taken such a play to the pinnacle of American theater, and to have forthrightly thanked his partner on national television at a time when the emerging AIDS crisis was making gay<\/a> men<\/a> a target of new fear and hostility, was indeed, as he put it in the acceptance speech, \u201ca stupendous and miraculous moment.\u201d\u2019<\/p>\n KING AND HIS HUSBAND<\/strong>.

Some conservatives calling for purge of all gay priests<\/a>: \u201cSome conservatives are calling for a purge of all gay<\/a> priests, a challenging task given that they are believed to be numerous and few are open about their sexual orientation. Moderates want the church to eliminate the need for secrecy by proclaiming that gay<\/a> men<\/a> are welcome if they can be effective priests who commit to celibacy.\u201d<\/p>\n POPE SPEAKS<\/strong>. Words, no action<\/a>:\u00a0\u201cLooking ahead to the future, no effort must be spared to create a culture able to prevent such [abuses] from happening, but also to prevent the possibility of their being covered up and perpetuated.\u201d<\/p>\n JOHN BOLTON<\/strong>. War hawk national security adviser says China, Iran and North Korea, in addition to Russia involved in meddling in U.S. elections:\u00a0\u201cThose are the four countries that we\u2019re most concerned about.\u201d<\/p>\n NEW: National security adviser John Bolton says in addition to Russia, there’s “sufficient national security concern” that China, Iran, and North Korea are meddling in the 2018 U.S. elections.<\/p>\n “Those are the four countries that we’re most concerned about” t.co\/5DMKk99wXZ<\/a> pic.twitter.com\/oUldR6JX57<\/a><\/p>\n \u2014 This Week (@ThisWeekABC) August 19, 2018<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n PAKISTAN<\/strong>.
