PUTIN-TRUMP PHONE CALLS<\/strong>. Kremlin says \u201cWashington would need Russian consent to publish transcripts\u201d of calls between the two leaders<\/a>. \u201cOf course their publication is to some extent only possible by mutual agreement of the parties. This is a certain diplomatic practice.\u201d<\/p>\n STOP BOOKING RUDY<\/strong>. Biden campaign tells networks to stop booking Trump\u2019s personal lawyer<\/a>: We are writing today with grave concern that you continue to book Rudy Giuliani on your air to spread false, debunked conspiracy theories on behalf of Donald Trump. Giving Rudy Giuliani valuable time on your air to push these lies in the first place is a disservice to your audience and a disservice to journalism.\u201d<\/p>\n OOH LALA<\/strong>. Chris Evans wants Mexicans to drink his milk<\/a>.<\/p>\n JOHN BOLTON<\/strong>. North Korea has no desire to give up its nukes<\/a>: \u201cOusted national security adviser John Bolton put on display the deep schisms between himself and President Donald Trump on North Korea, publicly breaking with his former boss on Monday about how best to get Kim Jong Un\u2019s regime to wind down its nuclear weapons program.\u201d<\/p>\n JEFF FLAKE<\/strong>. Republicans, there\u2019s still time to save your souls: \u201cNow for the easy decision. If the House decides against filing articles of impeachment, or the Senate fails to convict, Senate Republicans will have to decide whether, given what we now know about the president\u2019s actions and behavior, to support his reelection. Obviously, the answer is no.\u201d<\/p>\n \u2018POLICE LIVES MATTER\u2019 <\/strong>Massive Facebook page being run from Kosovo<\/a>: \u2018The pages sought to exploit the right-wing backlash against the \u201cBlack Lives Matter\u201d movement, which protests the killing of African-Americans by police officers. Pages in the network, all run by managers in Kosovo, included \u201cAll Lives Matter,\u201d \u201cI Support The Police US not Criminals,\u201d and \u201cBlue Lives Matter USA.\u201d This right-wing movement has been embraced by Trump, and the Police Lives Matter page included some explicitly pro-Trump messaging.\u2019<\/p>\n BERNIE SANDERS<\/strong>. Tax companies with high-earning CEOs<\/a>. \u201cThe presidential candidate and decadeslong crusader against income inequality unveiled a proposal Monday to raise taxes on businesses whose CEOs make at least 50 times more than their median workers. The boost in corporate taxes would be imposed on companies that bring in $100 million or more in annual revenue.\u201d<\/p>\n JOEL KIM BOOSTER<\/strong>. The star of Sunnyside<\/em> who\u2019s developing the gay Fire Island Pride & Prejudice<\/a> rom-com, talks to the Daily Beast<\/a>: \u201cSex feels as mundane as airplane food to me,\u201d he says. \u201cWe all do it. I feel like a lot of comics stop at this sort of shock-and-awe aspect of, oh my god, he\u2019s talking about anal sex<\/a> or eating out or cum or masturbation or something, and just stop there and don\u2019t ever sort of dig deeper into what is the unique experience that we all share in sex<\/a>.\u201d<\/p>\n UNDER THE RAINBOW<\/strong>. Renee Zellweger stays dry at the Judy<\/em> premiere<\/a>.<\/p>\n CALIFORNIA<\/strong>. Gavin Newsom signs bill allowing college athletes to profit from their names, images and likenesses<\/a>. \u201cThe law, also known as the Fair Pay to Play Act, will prohibit California colleges and universities from enforcing NCAA rules preventing student-athletes from being compensated for the use of their names, images and likenesses and from endorsements and sponsorships.\u201d<\/p>\n I\u2019m so incredibly proud to share this moment with all of you. @gavinnewsom<\/a> came to The Shop to do something that will change the lives for countless athletes who deserve it! @uninterrupted<\/a> hosted the formal signing for SB 206 allowing college athletes to responsibly get paid. pic.twitter.com\/NZQGg6PY9d<\/a><\/p>\n \u2014 LeBron James (@KingJames) September 30, 2019<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<\/div>\n<\/figure>\n F-BOMBS AWAY<\/strong>. Robert De Niro goes off on the Trump impeachment<\/a>.<\/p>\n AMY KLOBUCHAR<\/strong>. 2020 Democratic candidate says she killed a duck while golfing<\/a>: \u201cI did one time try to play golf\u2026misfired on my first try. The ball hit the duck in the head, and it appeared to perish. So I don\u2019t think it\u2019s a good idea for the bird population of America if I play golf.\u201d<\/p>\n AMY KLOBUCHAR ADMITS SHE KILLED A DUCK WHILE GOLFING #UFCWForum<\/a> pic.twitter.com\/IpWGjWc2PJ<\/a><\/p>\n \u2014 Brett Banditelli (@banditelli) September 29, 2019<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<\/div>\n<\/figure>\n UK<\/strong>. Home Office failing to erase gay men\u2019s unfair convictions<\/a>: \u2018A\u00a0Home Office\u00a0scheme designed to wipe historical convictions for consensual gay<\/a> sex<\/a> from people\u2019s records is failing to right past wrongs, critics have said, as it was revealed that fewer than 200 crimes have been deleted since it was introduced seven years ago. Although sex<\/a> in private between two men<\/a> aged over 21 was legalised in 1967, thousands of gay<\/a> men<\/a> continued to be convicted under laws against acts such as \u201cbuggery\u201d and \u201csoliciting\u201d, which remained on the statute books\u00a0until 2004<\/a>.\u2019<\/p>\n\n
