And anybody pro-gay must be “ferreted out” of the State Department.

Via press release from hate group leader Tony Perkins: After the eight-year scandal-factory of the Justice Department, the president-elect is making it clear that it’s a new day at DOJ with the nomination of Senator Jeff Sessions (R-Ala.) as attorney general.

Via press release from hate group leader Tony Perkins: America may recognize same-sex marriage now — but not because voters asked it too!
