A) This morning, Don Jr. retweeted this tweet which contains a video of a Pizzagate/QaNON guy screaming at me at my show in Philadelphia over the weekend. I am sick and tired of talking about this, but I have no choice because every time they do this it impacts my life/career. B) I am a comic who posted a photo some people took issue with. That does not mean I should be subject to this kind of harassment. I now have to have security guards wand my fans as they're entering my shows...I'm not a head of state/pres candidate, I shouldn't have to do this

15% Off Code: FUCKTHEGOP B) This was such a good idea! I just sent Brett or Bart Kavanaugh an Impeach Brett sticker pack and an Impeach Brett mug.

A) Something about all of the Kavanaugh protests and protesting in general. I think its important to put something in perspective...protesting can be a sacrifice but it can also be something that is largely available to the privileged and not easy for many women to participate in B) Think about when a team in your city has won a championship. You ever marvel how many men find a way to get the day off at a moment's notice to attend the rally? How they manage to stay out partying in the middle of the week even though they have to go to work the next day?

A) I have some news to share...Why am I doing a super intimate show in LA? Well, I decided to bite the bullet and I'm filming my current act, the same one I've taken across the world, for a special. Difference is, I'm filming this on my own and with my own money. Here's why.. B) This is not the way I want to do it. I'd rather have a deal with @Netflix @Apple @HBO, but despite the fact that I hold the Guinness Book of World Record for the most televised comedy specials, none of the companies that are in the comedy special biz have come calling.

A) Last year I was repeatedly told that my Trump photo was a danger to the safety of the President. I was under a two month federal investigation for it. TMZ "reported" that Barron Trump was traumatized by seeing the photo (a lie). Yet conservatives keep using the picture/video! B) Trust me...this is the last thing I want to be talking about, but I think its important because when there is another Kathy Griffin (and there will be), I don't want the same thing to happen to them. Talking about this doesn't help me sell concert tickets or anything else.

A) I want to use this incredible, heartbreaking post by @gwen_fulton about poverty and natural disasters to talk about the weather, Trump supporters, and fake news. This post by Gwen is as beautifully written as any major newspaper op-ed...

Full Post: bit.ly/2pcUQUq B) First, something I mentioned last week but that's worth repeating given that we are in hurricane season. We need to stop judging people who don't evacuate. A vast majority of people who don't evacuate are not thrill seekers or irrational people...they're poor.

Not for nothin, but if anything happens, I love you all. Love and laughter. That’s what I think it’s all about. Forever. XXOO MIAMI - I am so sorry, for the second time in ten years I have to postpone a show. The plane I was on just had an emergency landing and we can’t get to Miami on time for the show. I’m truly sorry. Please text KATHY to 345345 to find out when the show is rescheduled.

A) I have a story to tell and it's related to the whole Les Moonves situation. Normally, I hate when women are blamed for their husband's misconduct...it happens all the time. And after the first allegations against Leslie were revealed, I hoped his wife wouldn't face blowback. B) Julie Chen has always been nice to me and I had no reason to believe that she knew about her husband assaulting women before they got married. So I reached out to her and told her I would love to come on her show and I didn't need to make it about her husband/CBS

A) There's also something we're not talking about...general abuse of/retaliation against women in the workplace that isn't in the sexual misconduct department. I got a message from a famous woman comedian the other night that broke my heart....(cont) B) I've known this woman for years, told me she was basically done with being a comic. She was tired of going up against the boys club...exhausted with being made to prove herself -- something successful male comics don't have to do -- after over 15 years in the biz..

A) You know how many talented women and POC comics are knocking on doors trying to get some time in front of audiences or powerful people in this business? And Louis just gets to glide back in on his own terms? Gosh, does it payoff to be in the boys club..the white boys club B) I'm so used to the boys club in comedy things like this don't shock me...but that doesn't mean situations like this don't make me angry and frustrated for the people who have struggled to be heard and seen in a business that appreciate diversity.

It’s true, they did! They have no shame!

😂 B) Every time I post something related to the Kardashians/Jenners I get lots of hate tweets. Well something you should know is after the Trump photo, when 99% of my liberal anti-Trump Hollywood friends abandoned me, @KrisJenner and @KimKardashian were there for me.

Tonight we said goodbye to our beloved Pom Pom. She was 13-years-old. I know many of you got to know her from My Life on the D-List...Randy and I are heartbroken but relieved that she's not in pain anymore. We miss you already, Pom Pom...you were a very good girl. 💔

A) I've been warning about the dangers of TMZ with respect to what they cover, don't cover, and how they frame "news". Now they're trying to mess with my friend @LisaLampanelli and just like my support of @iamsambee, I'm not going to allow TMZ to do to Lisa what they did to me. B) Last weekend Lisa did a gig in San Jose and dealt with a heckler which is typical. The guy kept interrupting her act and when she confronted him and said he was getting thrown out (with a refund) he tried to give her $100 to shut up. So this jerk is at her show, ruining it..

A) One year ago today my Trump photo was released. I have planned on doing this thread for a while but the fact that Sarah Sanders brought my name up at the podium today makes it even more appropriate for me to share some thoughts on what happened.

Hope you'll take a look.... B) I am in a position of tremendous privilege. I have access to resources that allowed me to deal with this in a way others who aren't as privileged couldn't have. And that's exactly why I'm speaking out, I don't want this to happen to someone who doesn't have my resources.
