Trump and Gays

Image
President Trump and his advisers have made the calculation that courting moderate, pro-LGBT voters won’t hurt them in the slightest with his Evangelical and pro-life base.  In case you missed it, Ric Grenell, the former acting director of National Intelligence, gave an outstanding speech at the Republican National Convention last month.  It was a historic broadside against the Deep State and internationalists who’ve been in power for pretty much the last 40 years. I’m sure their blood was boiling as they watched it. Just days before Grenell, a homosexual delivered his remarks, he made a video declaring Donald Trump the “most pro-gay president in American history.” The Trump administration has walked a fine line the past several years with its socially conservative base and the LGBT community. No one can deny that President Trump is quite possibly the most pro-life president we’ve ever had. He’s also admirably defended the religious liberty of the Little Sisters of the Poor and others.

(Photo credit: Wikipedia ) WASHINGTON, D.C. , August 7, 2012,  – Mitt Romney stands by a 1994 statement that the Boy Scouts of America (BSA) should admit homosexuals to the organization, as members or adult supervisors, according to a campaign spokesperson.  During a 1994 debate with Ted Kennedy ,  Romney said , “I support the right of the Boy Scouts of America to decide what it wants to do on that issue. I feel that all people should be able to participate in the Boy Scouts regardless of their sexual orientation.” Campaign spokeswoman Andrea Saul  confirmed  that Mitt Romney continues to hold that belief today.  However, she said Romney, who served as a member of its executive board, has not pressured the organization to change its stance and does not wish to see the Scouts  forced to accept homosexuals . LifeSiteNews.com revealed that some chapters of the Boy Scouts do not consider the nati

Mayor Bloomberg said today he "owes it to his children" to support elected officials who stand up and "do the right thing" --  even if their actions have repercussions at the voting booth. Bloomberg spoke to the press corps, including our Erin Einhorn, following the opening of a new East River esplanade at Wall Street -- and following reports that Hizzoner cut sizable checks  to the four GOP state senators who put same-sex marriage legislation over the top. The mayor declined to answer a question about any other candidates he may be supporting soon but did spell out his contribution philosophy. Here’s the exchange, per Einhorn: Q: I know you made some contributions to Republican senators who voted the way you wanted on gay marriage. Are there any other… A: They didn’t vote the way I wanted. They voted the right way. They voted the way for freedom, for democracy, for equality, and I think we should all support that. Q: Are there any other candidates – city or fed

Image via Wikipedia The leader of New York ’s Catholics told New York lawmakers that communist governments presume to redefine fundamental rights and basic social institutions like the family, and that New York would be importing that mentality by passing same-sex “marriage” legislation. The state Senate is just one vote shy of having the necessary majority to pass a bill allowing homosexual couples to obtain marriage licenses.  Two Republican Senators, Jim Alesi of Rochester, and Roy MacDonald of Saratoga announced they will back same-sex “marriage” this year, backtracking from the “no” votes they cast in 2009. “Last time I consulted an atlas, it is clear we are living in New York, in the United States of America – not in China or North Korea ,” wrote New York Archbishop Timothy Dolan . The Catholic primate explained in  an archdiocesan column published Tuesday that legislators were on a “stampede” to legalize same-sex “marriage.” He warned it was a ““perilous presumption” for
