Confronting America's Most Hateful Preacher

My street confrontation with Pastor Steven Anderson outside of the Make America Straight Again Conference exposes his anti-LGBT views and what his horrific alternative to gay rights is.

America’s Biggest Christian Charity Funnels Tens of Millions to Hate Groups

The National Christian Foundation passed along $56 million from anonymous individuals to nearly two dozen anti-LGBT and anti-Muslim hate groups over the last three years on record.

The nation’s eighth-largest public charity is pouring tens of millions of dollars each year into a number of mostly anti-LGBT hate groups, a Sludge investigation shows.

Rep. Huss is a graduate of Pensacola Christian College, where even “stairwells, elevators, and parking lots on campus are segregated by gender.” Students there must sign an agreement that they will not engage in “witchcraft, fornication, adultery, homosexual behavior, or any other sexual perversion.”

It might be against the rules to look at others in a kind act of freindship.

Off with but Rep. James “Micah” Van Huss, Republican of Jonesborough's head!

Now even airplains aren't safe to play footsie.

Now Even airplains aren't safe.
https://www.yahoo.com/lifestyle/southwest-flight-makes-emergency-la...
On Tuesday, a Southwest Airlines flight from Los Angeles to Dallas was forced to make an emergency landing in New Mexico after a man allegedly wouldn’t stop “playing footsie” with a female passenger.
According to the Dallas Morning News, Justin Riley Brafford, 29, is currently in federal custody in New Mexico and will face a felony count of interference with a flight crew, along with a misdemeanor assault charge, because of his actions on Southwest Flight 859.
Brafford proved to be a nightmare of a seat mate when he sat next to a woman identified as M.W. According to a criminal complaint filed in U.S. District Court in Albuquerque, he allegedly put his arm on her leg as the plane was being readied for takeoff. M.W. leaned away from his advances, and he upped the ante by trying to “play footsie” with her — a flirting game where two people touch feet, usually under a table or another concealed place.
M.W. told Brafford to stop kicking her, and Brafford allegedly responded by asking her to go out with him after the flight, as well as asking her if she was staying alone in her hotel room, according to the Albuquerque Journal.
When M.W. declined to go out with him, Brafford whispered into her ear, “Don’t [expletive] with me,” according to the Dallas Morning News.
A flight attendant on board assumed that the two were a couple, based on Brafford’s physical closeness to M.W., but at her request moved her to a new seat.
Brafford, obviously unable to take a hint, tried to bring M.W. a drink at her new seat. That was when a flight attendant spoke to him, and, according to the complaint, he went from “zero to sixty in nano-seconds,” cursing and yelling.
His response was so abrupt and hostile that the flight attendant notified the pilot, who diverted the flight to Albuquerque, where Brafford was taken into custody.
Brafford allegedly told authorities that he believed he and the woman had a connection and that they had been watching videos on her computer. He said he thought she was flirting with him. He also told authorities that he had used methamphetamines the day before the flight and overdosed on heroin on Saturday. According to the Dallas Morning News, he reported to the FBI that God was talking to him during the flight.
The man faces an assault charge with a penalty of a year in prison and a $100,000 fine, as well as 20 years in federal prison and a $250,000 fine for felony interference with a flight crew.

TENNESSEE: GOP Bill Would Amend State Constitution To Declare That All “Liberties Come From Almighty God”

The Nashville Scene reports:
It’s not the most ridiculous or embarrassing news from Capitol Hill this week, but Rep. James “Micah” Van Huss, Republican of Jonesborough, made headlines for renewing his effort to amend the state constitution to declare “Almighty God” as the source of liberties.
Should it pass all the gauntlets in the House, including floor passage, the resolution would go next to the Senate, where it would be considered in the next legislative session.
If all that happens, “Article I, Section 2, of the Constitution of Tennessee [will] be amended by deleting the period (.) at the end of the section and substituting instead the following: and that liberties do not come from government but from Almighty God.”
If the change is approved by both chambers, the issue goes before voters in the next gubernatorial election in 2022. As I reported at the time, Huss attempted to pass the same bill in 2017.
RELATED: Rep. Huss is a graduate of Pensacola Christian College, where even “stairwells, elevators, and parking lots on campus are segregated by gender.” Students there must sign an agreement that they will not engage in “witchcraft, fornication, adultery, homosexual behavior, or any other sexual perversion.”

Conservative Christians Claim Ocasio-Cortez Is A Witch Leading Attack Against Trump

She scares them: Conservative Christians claim Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez is a witch guided by demons and leading an attack against President Donald Trump.
Frightened by a smart, articulate, attractive young woman, conservative Christians panic, worried that Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez is really a witch leading a demonic attack against President Trump.
Earlier this month, Dave Kubal, president of the Religious Right group Intercessors for America, explained how Rep. Ocasio-Cortez is connected to “a coven of witches that cast spells on President Trump 24 hours a day, seven days a week.”
Immediately after interviewing conservative Christian congressman Jody Hice of Georgia during his monthly “prayer call,” Kubal told his followers:

It’s been widely publicized that there is a coven of witches that cast spells on President Trump 24 hours a day, seven days a week. This particular coven is found in the southern portion of New York City.
So, right in the middle of all of this, the southern district, in the middle of where these witches are doing the 24/7 spell-casting, we find the territory of Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez.

Kubal added:
Her district is in the center of all of this going on. Is this a coincidence? Maybe … Is there an evil thread running through this area, trying to dispel diabolical power?
The desired answer to the absurd rhetorical question is obvious: Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez is supposedly a witch leading a diabolical attack against President Trump.
Kubal then went on to lead his followers “in a prayer against the demonic forces that are clustered in southern New York City” and “operating through the likes of Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez.”

The fact that gullible conservative Christians believe the notion that Ocasio-Cortez is a witch should not be surprising. Even before Ocasio-Cortez was elected to office in 2018 conservative Christians were claiming that feminists were really witches placing powerful “hexes” on Trump.

Indeed, always superstitious and gullible, many fearful conservative Christians have expressed fears that feminists like Ocasio-Cortez are using black magic to sabotage the Trump administration.
Feeding the gullible Christians, late last year conservative website Breitbart reported on “the rise of feminist witchcraft,” noting:
Following President Trump’s inauguration, witches, covens, and even A-list celebrities started to hex the president with frequent “spells.”
Bottom line: Gullible conservative Christians claim Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez is leading “a coven of witches that cast spells on President Trump 24 hours a day, seven days a week.”

Rodney Howard-Browne: Ruth Bader Ginsburg Should be Shot for Treason 

On Monday, right-wing pastor and radical conspiracy theorist Rodney Howard-Browne guest-hosted “The Alex Jones Show” on InfoWars, during which he asserted that Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg should be shot for treason.
Howard-Browne, who laid hands upon and prayed over President Trump in the Oval Office last year, was interviewing right-wing activist and commentator KrisAnne Hall, when he attacked Gingsburg for daring to suggest, back in 2012, that Egypt should “look at the Constitution of South Africa” when drafting a new constitution, rather than the U.S Constitution.
“If you hear Bader Ginsburg talk, she talks about the Constitution of America being totally flawed,” Howard-Browne complained.
After Hall recounted Ginsburg’s 2012 statement, Howard-Browne asserted that Ginsburg should have been removed from office because “that was high treason.”
“She should have been impeached, immediately,” Hall agreed.
“I’d have them shot,” Howard-Brown replied. “To me, that’s a total violation, because how do you pledge to defend the Constitution when you are totally throwing it under the bus?”

For the sake of argument and being a contrarian I find it unfortunate that some speech has more advantage than other 'speech."

Is money speech?

I'd argue that If I have a dollar to express my opinion it's less than another who has millions of dollars to express 'their' speech.
