(The photo above was the first time I met the luminous Ms. Ralph). • Dallas Voice: National LGBTQ leaders react to the election of virulently anti-LGBTQ Rep. Mike Johnson (R-LA) as Speaker of the House. https://twitter.com/DallasVoice/status/1717571818251538450 • Philadelphia Inquirer: Robert Davis, 19, was arrested at his South Philadelphia home Wednesday night and is expected to be charged with the murder of journalist and activist Josh Kruger. • JoeMyGod: A youth pastor at an anti-LGBTQ “bait and switch” Georgia church has been arrested on four counts of child molestation.
