One week ago we mocked NOM for flopping with their Kim Davis Bigotry Reward Fund. Seven days later, despite Davis dominating the cable news cycle and making the front page of every paper in the nation, NOM has raised a measly additional $635 from 16 suckers. It looks like the martyr money beg train has finally hit the wall. So …

“Ms. Davis was much more faithful to her oath of office, and to the Constitution she vowed to support, than the federal judge who jailed her for contempt, the attorney general of the state who refused to defend Kentucky’s laws, and Justice Anthony Kennedy, who usurped the authority of the states and the more than 50 million voters who had …

It’s been two days since NOM launched its Kim Davis Bigotry Reward fund and so far a whopping 24 more people have added to the measly total of $6723. Which is $6723 more than Davis deserves, but is still funny. More importantly, the paltry amount is indicative of the scant support seen for Davis except among the most extremist fundamentalists. …

[NOTE! Auto-playing video!] Hate group leaders Tony Perkins, Brian Brown, and Mat Staver will join Mike Huckabee for a Kim Davis hate rally due to start with a 2:30PM press conference. Ted Cruz will be there too, but he has reportedly refused to be on the same stage with Huckabee, so he is due to appear any minute. The local …

National anti-gay groups are falling over themselves to be seen at Mike Huckabee’s hate rally in support of serial adulterer Kim Davis. This morning press releases were fired out by Liberty Counsel, NOM, the Family Research Council, and the Concernstipated Women.  Here’s some of the FRC’s message: Our Constitution guarantees Kim Davis the right to practice her faith. It’s called …

“Hours ago a federal judge jailed Kentucky clerk Kim Davis in an act of judicial tyranny. Judge David Bunning wants to force her to abandon her Christian principles and personally participate in validating same-sex ‘marriages’ by putting her name on the license. Federal law says that the government must provide a reasonable accommodation for people with deeply held religious beliefs, …

“Kim Davis wasn’t going to lie, or violate her faith. She would not allow her name to be used to spread a falsehood — attesting that two men are married to each other, or two women either. If refusing to issue same-sex ‘marriage’ licenses while issuing heterosexual licenses was not permitted, then her solution was to not issue any marriage …

“In many previous interviews, Trump has professed his support for traditional marriage, saying that this is how he was raised and it’s what his religious faith tells him is true. But in an interview this week with The Hollywood Reporter, Trump said that conservatives should move on from the gay marriage issue because, ‘the Supreme Court has ruled.’ “Talk about …

If you’ve been wondering why we haven’t heard much about NOM’s 2016 anti-LGBT hate pledge since it was launched over two months ago, now we know why. From Brian Brown: The National Organization for Marriage (NOM) today identified four Republican presidential candidates they have dubbed “Marriage Champions” for having pledged to the American people that they will take several specific …

“After Labor Day, Congress will return from their recess. We must make sure that FADA is front and center —and that we have the support to get this passed into law. Passage of the First Amendment Defense Act is absolutely crucial. Despite the overwhelming support of Americans to protect the religious liberty of people who believe in traditional marriage, I …

NOM has finally handed over its donors list in Maine and as we all suspected, the hate group only has a handful of supporters. The Bangor Daily News reports: Jonathan Wayne, executive director of the Maine Ethics Commission, said in a written statement Monday morning that the list had been filed at the commission’s website and that the organization has …

“The nation watched the first debate of the presidential cycle this week, as Fox News hosted the affair from Cleveland on Thursday evening. As many NOM supporters have observed, the mainstream media rarely treats the marriage issue with the importance it deserves, and even Fox News has been reluctant to give it fair and balanced coverage. Regrettably, this was evident …

Via the Portland Press Herald: The National Organization for Marriage has lost another round in its attempt to hide the identities of donors to a successful 2009 referendum campaign to reverse Maine’s marriage equality law. The Maine Supreme Judicial Court on Tuesday denied NOM’s motion to block a ruling by the state’s ethics and elections commission that the organization must …

“We have already made great progress in advancing the First Amendment Defense Act (FADA). The Senate version of FADA, S. 1598 authored by Utah Senator Mike Lee, has 36 Senate cosponsors. The House version, HR 2802 authored by Idaho Representative Raul Labrador, currently has 142 cosponsors. That means that over 40% of the entire Congress is officially supporting this critical …

“The Supreme Court’s decision in Obergefell mandating same-sex marriage throughout the nation is not only wrong, but illegitimate. The oaths that elected officials take is to ‘the Constitution,’ not to ‘the Supreme Court,’ and it is high time that ‘that eminent tribunal’ be reminded that the very essence of its authority comes from the Constitution. As John Marshall stated in …

“Sponsored by the grossly-misnamed Human Rights Campaign special interest group, HR 3185 is breathtaking in its scope. It would allow gay and lesbian activists to persecute Americans in virtually every area of society — in employment, public accommodations, housing, credit, and a dozen other areas of civil life. Wherever federal law prohibits racial discrimination, it would also prohibit ‘discrimination’ based …

Last night Britain’s Channel 4 aired Hunted: Gay And Afraid, which points to US-based Christian groups such as the World Congress Of Families and NOM as fomenting anti-LGBT violence across Africa. The Independent reviews: MacKean’s film focused not on the victims but on the “villains”, specifically the World Congress of Families, an organisation which, though based in the US, has …

Yesterday Ted Cruz convened a hearing before the Senate Judiciary Subcommittee on Oversight, which he chairs, in order to call for reining in the “judicial tyranny” of the Supreme Court. One of the three witnesses he called was NOM chairman John Eastman. MSNBC reports: Eastman agreed with Cruz’s proposals on judicial term limits and retention elections, but added one more …

Via press release from NOM: Brian Brown, President of the National Organization for Marriage, recently joined Republican presidential candidates and conservative luminaries in addressing the 2,500 activists who attended the FAMiLY LEADER’s Family Leadership Summit, which NOM was proud to co-sponsor. In his interview, Brown discussed the Supreme Court’s Obergefell decision, and counseled conservatives on what to do next. “We …
