The house just striped out everything benefiting LGBTQ from an appropriations bill. Bigoted, no? I'll bet that everyone that voted for this campaigned on their Christian faith.

White supremacisy has been baked into American Evangelicalism since the founding.

So why are you in jail? I’m a serial killer- I murdered 10 people over a ten-year period of time and they just caught me. What about you? Oh I’m a mom who helped her daughter get abortion pills online so she could abortion. Meta turned me in. (Damn)
