Wut?

Here’s how to push back against the transphobic lie that men are sneaking into women’s rooms — and …

“It’s clear President Obama is more interested in appeasing America’s homosexuals than honoring America’s heroes. Veterans suicide is out-of-control and military readiness is dangerously low, yet Obama is so obsessed with pandering to liberal interest groups he’s nominated an openly gay civilian to run the Army. Homosexuality is not a job qualification. The U.S. military is designed to keep Americans …

Talk about empty promises – Mike Huckabee just offered to go to jail in place of Kim Davis, who sobbingly took the stage with her husband Joe Davis to warn the crowd that Jesus is totally being all Judge Judy on them.

Triumphantly flanked by hate group leader Mat Staver and Mike Huckabee, Kim Davis stopped sobbing long enough to offer the press a smile, nodding “yes” when they asked if her jailing had been worth it.

“I spoke with Kim Davis this morning to offer my prayers and support. I let her know how proud I am of her for not abandoning her religious convictions and standing strong for religious liberty.
