Lady Gaga vowed to continue fighting for the LGBTQ+ community following the 2024 presidential election, which she called 'devastating' for so many.

In a new Elle interview, which took place six days after the results of the American election were announced, the singer, 38, reflected on her reaction to Donald Trump stepping into the role as the 45th president of the United States.

'What's bizarre is I did not write this album thinking that this would happen. I prayed it would not. But here we are,' the Poker Face hitmaker said ahead of the release of her seventh record, Mayhem, which is due out on March 7.

She continued: 'The main thing is I have so much compassion and love for so many people that are afraid today. I want to acknowledge I'm a very blessed person and I feel really grateful for so much in my life every day.'

The 13-time Grammy winner, who endorsed Kamala Harris, went on to note that she knows 'for a lot of people this election was devastating for their existence and so community is going to be the number one thing.'

You’ve already lost, slut. Didn’t you get the memo?

Robert Heinlein:

“[T]here seems to have been an actual decline in rational thinking. The United States had become a place where entertainers and professional athletes were mistaken for people of importance. They were idolized and treated as leaders; their opinions were sought on everything and they took themselves just as seriously—after all, if an athlete is paid a million or more a year, he knows he is important ... so his opinions of foreign affairs and domestic policies must be important, too, even though he proves himself to be ignorant and sub-literate every time he opens his mouth.”

Why would this come out now, when she said this in early November?

(By the way... I did meet her in a valet parking lot at a sporting event once. Very nice, good polite conversation as we walked towards the entrance, seemed quite genuine to me. I'm a nobody, and she gave me a good 3 minutes of chitchat.)

I remember what all those queers did, in the greater Los Angelres Basin-to include Montclair andd Pomona, in 1984.

They messed with The Red Cross’s Blood Bank by not declaring whether they had a communicable sexual disease, or not.

That was going to be their message to the world.
