Last night homocon billionaire Peter Thiel, who has declared that democracy and capitalism are incompatible, dismissed the GOP’s most anti-LGBT platform in history as unimportant. Which it totally IS if you are a white male homocon billionaire. As repulsive as Thiel’s politics are, the upside of his appearance last night is that the haters are absolutely livid. Case in point, …

This is what’s considered homocon activism. Via Politico: Gay members of the California delegation plan to move to the front row of the convention hall when Peter Thiel delivers his speech tonight, according to a Republican familiar with the plan.

The online news organization founded in 2003 by Nick Denton which now …

From an open letter posted yesterday by Gawker founder Nick Denton: Your revenge has been served well, cold and (until now) anonymously. You admit you have been planning the punishment of Gawker and its writers for years, and that you have so far spent $10 million to fund litigation against the company. Charles Harder, the Hollywood plaintiff’s lawyer who has …

Yesterday billionaire homocon Peter Thiel declared that he secretly funded Hulk Hogan’s lawsuit against Gawker in retaliation for the site having outed him nearly a decade ago.

From the New York Times: That is the back story to a legal case that had already grabbed headlines: The wrestler Hulk Hogan sued Gawker Media for invasion of privacy after it published a sex tape, and a Florida jury recently awarded the wrestler, whose real name is Terry Gene Bollea, $140 million.

Billionaire PayPal co-founder Peter Thiel and Fox News commentator Richard Grenell have been named as California delegates for Donald Trump.

Erstwhile GOProud backer and homocon billionaire Peter Thiel continues to be one of Ted Cruz’s most generous donors. And Cruz is apparently thrilled to have to that filthy homosexual money.

Bloomberg gives us some interesting history: [Ted] Cruz is making the gay marriage debate the cornerstone of a bid to rally conservatives to his 2016 presidential bid, but same-sex issues haven’t always been the top priority for a lawmaker who built his profile as a limited-government, Tea Party-aligned conservative. As Texas solicitor general when the Lawrence v. Texas case came …
