Dear AFTAH Supporter,
The following is an appeal for funds and prayers by Jennifer Coutlee–an Indiana woman and Christian mother of three who is living the ultimate marital nightmare: her husband of 17 years, Wyatt, engaged in secret, adulterous sodomies with other men before finally announcing his homosexuality to her under compulsion of his male lover. Now she has to endure a situation in which her 12-year-old Autistic son is forced to spend time in his dad’s household with the homosexual male lover present. Jennifer has created an online “crowdfunding” site to help her in her legal battles ahead to protect her children.
If your heart is not moved by this tragedy, check your pulse. Let’s band together to raise a few thousand dollars–or many thousands of dollars!–to help this brave and determined woman protect the safety and innocence of her children. Please read this letter and go to Jennifer’s funding site and give what you can. If you cannot donate, pray for her. This is a side of the “gay” activist movement that the media rarely report on honestly–how the pursuit of sexual perversion and immoral relationships breaks up families and puts children at risk.
The media love “gay” victims, but the victims of selfish homosexuals?–not so much. And we all know that a sizable portion of people who read Jennifer’s letter will make some sort of excuse for Wyatt, the homosexually adulterous husband, on the grounds that he “discovered his gay self” …”who he really is,” or some pathetic variation of these. (Remember homosexual adulterer and New Jersey Gov. Jim McGreevey’s self-serving “I am a gay American” speech?) In the end, homosexualism is merely another indulgence of sinful self over God–and it is at war with the natural family. You can reach Jennifer through the email that follows her appeal letter below. — Peter LaBarbera, AFTAH.org; americansfortruth@gmail.com; @PeterLaBarbera

Dear Fellow Christian Warriors:
My name is Jennifer Coutlee, and I have been thrust into a battle that I never thought I would ever have to fight, and I am praying that you will join in this fight with me. Here is my story.
It began in the winter of 2008, when I found my husband, Wyatt, in an online affair, posing as a bisexual man. After confronting him with this, he denounced bisexuality and said he was committed to our marriage. We solidified our commitment, and our daughter, Nora, was born in June of 2009. For the next number of years, I believed things were going well between us. However, I was dreadfully wrong. On November 16, 2014, my husband of almost 17 years woke me up early in the morning to tell me some devastating news. For the past number of months he had been having adulterous affairs with numerous men. Some just one night affairs with men he met on Craigslist, and one ongoing affair with a young man he met while at work. The reason for this news now: His “boyfriend” was already in a relationship. His boyfriend had followed Wyatt the night before to a “hook-up” where he confronted Wyatt, letting him know if Wyatt didn’t tell me what was going on, he most certainly would. This, of course, forced Wyatt to tell me. But he didn’t just tell me, he then told our then 15-year-old daughter without me present.
Jennifer Coutlee’s goals as laid out on her crowdfunding web page. The politically correct courts often do not recognize the unique dangers involving custody arrangements arising from homosexual adulteries. Go HERE to donate to Jennifer’s cause.
As devastating as this news was, it didn’t stop there. While I was hurt, I still wanted to fight for my marriage and had begun putting the pieces in place to begin counseling. Unfortunately, on November 20, 2014, things came crashing down again. Early in the morning, I began getting myself and the kids ready for the day. I woke Wyatt up so he could help me finish getting our youngest ready, but after hearing him with our daughter, I became very emotional, and I decided I could not go into work. Wyatt took the kids to school. I locked the front door behind them, because it was windy that day and our door blew open when not dead-bolted. I returned to my bedroom where I began reading the Bible and the book, Power of the Praying Wife. Around 10am, I laid down for a nap, feeling calm and hopeful after spending time with the Lord. Unfortunately, the next thing I knew, it was sometime after 10pm! I was in the hospital, and I had no memory of what went on after my nap. Wyatt was nowhere to be found. My friend Diana was by my bedside, and the doctors were telling me that I attempted suicide by ingesting a month worth of Zoloft and various narcotic pain killers. After the doctors interviewed Wyatt and me (since he would not leave work to be with me in the hospital, his interview was by phone), they transferred me to a psychiatric hospital and kept me on a 72 hour hold. While I was in the hospital, Wyatt was very hostile and cold and uncaring toward me. He told the nurses that I needed to be held until I took responsibility for my actions, and I believe he only visited me because I asked him to visit. He did not call my closest friends to let them know I was in the hospital, even though he knew I had been in close contact with them prior to this event.
Hey all, I published a version of this piece September 29 on X (@PeterLaBarbera) and my Facebook account. — Peter LaBarbera, president, Americans For Truth/Center For Morality
“Being gay is a different kind of love”: Page from “Daddy’s Roommate,” a homosexual “children’s” picture book aimed at very young kids published by Alyson Publications in 1990. Americans For Truth’s flagship publication, “Lambda Report,” broke the story that Alyson Publications also published books with pro-pedophilia content.
Many conservatives and MAGA advocates have a ‘PHAT’ problem (Pro-Homosexuality/Anti-Trans). Stop promoting one form of sexual deviance (sin) while fighting another. You cannot serve Truth while promoting a Lie, nor serve God while defying His perfect moral Law. You cannot erase this:
The modern Gay Revolution:
redefined Normal;
defied Nature to countenance its high-risk sodomies (receptive anal s-x and gay male promiscuity fueled the deadly AIDS pandemic);
violated children’s innocence either through direct predation or by injecting its perverse ideology into K-12 schools–thus imprinting sexual aberrance on very young, impressionable minds; see 1990 picture book “Daddy’s Roommate” below);
promoted cross-dressing, “gender” propaganda aimed at youth, and other forms of trans activism;
“queered” the sacred institution of marriage through relentless activism;
led to vicious and even violent attacks on Christians who defended historic biblical truth on homosexuality (e.g., San Francisco Presbyterian pastor Chuck McIlhenny’s church and home were firebombed in 1983). Meanwhile, Christians and religious traditionalists were regularly smeared as “haters,” bigots and “phobes”; and
reimagined the natural “family” to celebrate homosexual (gay and lesbian) households that intentionally deny children a mom or a dad.
Along the way, self-absorbed “gay” ideologues grotesquely smeared our biblical and national heroes, claiming, for example, that David and Jonathan in the Old Testament were “gay lovers,” and that Abraham Lincoln was likely “bisexual” and a “Lover of Men” (see twisted graphic below).
Smearing Abe Lincoln: Above is promotional graphic of the pro-LGBTQ 2024 “documentary” film “Lover of Men: The Untold History of Abraham Lincoln,” which claims America’s 16th president was likely bisexual or “gay” (homosexual).The LGBTQ activist group Human Rights Campaign partnered with the creators of “Lover of Men.”
Most ominously, from the beginning, “gay”/”queer” militants have for DECADES worked to reinterpret the Bible’s crystal clear teaching against homosexual acts as sinful (Romans 1:26-7, Leviticus 18:22, Jude 7, 1 Corinthians 6:9, etc.) “Queer theology” revisionists are literally re-writing the history of Christianity to promote sodomitic unions as somehow pleasing to God. Yes, the same holy God who unequivocally condemns homosexual acts (see the works of late Yale gay-activist scholar John Boswell).
This is a time for Truth and moral clarity: Do not help mainstream what God calls an “abomination” (detestable behavior; Lev. 18:22), even if it makes you feel better about opposing trans lunacy.
P.S. The great news is that many men and women have “come out” of homosexuality (and “trans” delusions), most through Jesus Christ. EX-“gay” men like Becket Cook (@BecketCook), Stephen Black, Daren Mehl and Stephen Bennett; EX-lesbian women like Janet Boynes, Rosaria Butterfield and Charlene Cothran; and EX-trans people like Walt Heyer and Laura (Perry) Smalts. Praise God!

Center For Morality/Americans For Truth is proud to join this campaign by Linda Harvey, my friend and president of the Ohio-based group Mission America, to pray and work against the activist “LGBTQ History Month” in schools. Decades of homosexual (“gay”), transgender and “queer” propaganda directed at children has endangered and corrupted the most vulnerable Americans and wreaked havoc on our culture. –Peter LaBarbera, CFM/Americans For Truth.
Below is Harvey’s full news release:
September 10, 2025
Press Release
Contact: lpharvey@missionamerica.com
(Columbus, OH, September 10, 2025) Today, a nationwide call went out for prayer and action during the month of October, as many American public schools observe “LGBTQ History Month.”
Mission America, an Ohio-based Christian organization, is leading a coalition asking parents, students and teachers as well as churches to commit to a month of prayer during October as reckless, deceptive events roll out in many schools featuring rainbow radicalism, obscene library selections, “drag” queens as special speakers/assemblies, in-class lessons, and more.
The American Family Association and many other groups have joined this effort. A statement from AFA said the following: “American Family Association supports Mission America’s call to prayer for students in October. We urge believers to ask God to shield children from deceptive LGBTQ+ messages in schools and turn hearts toward His truth about sexuality, marriage, and identity.”
“We implore Almighty God to intervene and protect children at school from systematic sexual corruption they’re often forced to endure during October,” said Linda Harvey, president of Mission America. “Students may be taught that ‘queer’ behaviors and identities have been an admirable part of human history; that they are inborn and unchangeable; and that all objections are hateful bigotry akin to racism. These are reckless and harmful lies that encourage children to embrace gravely sinful conduct.”
Each fall, Mission America publishes the widely-consulted “School Corruption and Propaganda Calendar” to alert parents about the dates when they can expect organized, well-publicized grooming events at some schools and how to prepare their children accordingly.
From lessons training students to become “LGBTQ” activists, to “Coming Out Day” and “International Pronouns Day,” the entire month of October is often devoted to the worst immoral elements of ‘woke’ indoctrination. And with the move this year of the American Library Association’s “Banned Books Week” from September to October (coordinating with these other events), students are likely to be assaulted with non-stop pro-homosexual, pro-transgender indoctrination.
Parents are encouraged to combine prayer with action in their own communities, requesting school boards to drop these high-risk messages, urging state lawmakers to prohibit reckless school lessons and events, and even participating in peaceful demonstrations.
“We must be on our knees and appeal to the Lord, in the name of Jesus, to change the minds of school boards, administrators, and teachers to end manipulative, often pornographic messages that are poisoning the school climate,” said Harvey. “It’s time to embrace wholesome, uplifting themes of courage and morality instead, and we know that God is fully able to change even the most hardened hearts.”
Mission America is joined by other organizations in supporting the Prayer /Action for October Project, including:
American Association of Evangelicals
American Family Association
American Family Association of Pennsylvania

Here’s a suggested prayer:
“Heavenly Father, we ask You to go before us, to go before our precious children as they attend school in October, and remove these messages of corruption by peaceful and civil means. We know that You care tenderly for each of these young people. Please protect their minds, hearts and spirits from the delusion of accepting homosexuality as normal and safe; of believing that any human should attempt to change Your creation of them as male or female; and of believing that Your Word is deficient. We ask that You would change the minds and hearts of the adults in charge who are attempting to influence children toward depravity and darkness. Create in those in authority respect for the rights of parents and for the freedom of conscience of all families to be able to object to homosexual and transgendered behavior without hateful labels. Open the eyes of teachers and administrators. Bring them to repentance and end this month-long attempt to revise human history, and revive a recognition of the truth instead. In the name of Jesus our Savior we pray, Amen.”

By now, most conservatives have heard about Chip and Joanna Gaines’ new streaming series on their Magnolia Network titled Back to the Frontier. It imitates the PBS reality series Frontier House in structure and title, choosing three families to live for a period of time without modern conveniences. While the PBS series had families live as frontierspeople for five months, the Gaines’ carefully selected families will suffer for only eight weeks. The other major difference is the Gaineses decided that one third of the families needed to be headed by homosexuals. In fact, according to the homosexual men chosen, Jason Hanna and Joe Riggs, flyers for series applicants featured homosexuals.
Promotional photo for HGTV show, “Fixer Upper,” through which Chip and Joanna Gaines rose to fame.
In an interview with Queerty, the website whose motto is “Free of an Agenda (except that gay one),” these homosexual men made clear their motivation for applying to be on the series. Hanna said,
When I first saw the flyer on social media, there was a gay couple on the flyer, and so that initially sparked my interest. … When our boys were born—our twin boys were born via surrogacy in 2014—we faced some legal challenges, and so we’ve always felt it to be important that we try to be an example for same-sex couples. … And so it was this amazing opportunity to [continue to] normalize same-sex couples and same-sex families.
Hanna’s “spouse” Joe Riggs echoed those unhealthy, unholy sentiments: “[O]f course I was on board with the whole concept of continuing to normalize same-sex families.”
The self-identifying Christians Chip and Joanna Gaines, whose net worth is estimated to be $50 million, promoted the pernicious cultural goals of two men who embrace sodomy as identity, used surrogacy to create motherless children (while likely destroying unwanted embryos), and objectified women by purchasing their eggs and renting their wombs. The Gaineses sold their faith for a mess of potage and a pile of filthy lucre.
Billy Graham’s son Franklin posted a tepid criticism of the Gaineses’ “Gay Little House on the Prairie,” but even that was too much for the prickly man-boy Chip.
Grahams posted,
I hope this isn’t true, but I read today that Chip and Joanna Gaines are featuring a gay couple in their new series. If It is true, it is very disappointing. While we are to love people, we should love them enough to tell them the truth of God’s Word. His Word is absolute truth. God loves us, and His design for marriage is between one man and one woman. Promoting something that God defines as sin is in itself sin.
In response, Chip Gaines responded,
Talk, ask qustns, listen.. maybe even learn. Too much to ask of modern American Christian culture. Judge 1st, understand later/never
It’s a sad sunday when “non believers” have never been confronted with hate or vitriol until they are introduced to a modern American Christian
It’s a sad day when self-identifying Christ-followers castigate their brothers and sisters in Christ for holding fast to truth.
It’s a sad day when self-identifying Christians accuse their fellow Christians of being hateful and vitriolic for condemning actions of celebrities who use their influence to normalize sexual perversion and family structures that God abhors.
It’s a sad day when Christians who could use their celebrity to call their fans to repentance or could at least refuse to participate in any way with egregious sin, instead acquiesce to modern God-hating secular culture.
It was a sad day when Chip Gaines lumped all criticism of his and his wife’s actions together as hateful and vitriolic.
It’s tragic that Chip and Joanna Gaines chose to promote that which Scripture says will cost Hanna and Riggs eternal life:
“Do not be deceived: neither the sexually immoral … nor men who practice homosexuality … will inherit the kingdom of God” (1 Corinthians 6: 9-10).
It’s a sad day when Christians with influential platforms refuse to live in accordance with Scripture that says,
“Take no part in the unfruitful works of darkness, but instead expose them” (Ephesians 5:11).
“It would be better for that person if a millstone would be hung around his neck and he would be thrown into the sea than for him to cause one of these little ones to sin” (Luke 17:2).
“Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewal of your mind, that by testing you may discern what is the will of God, what is good and acceptable and perfect” (Romans 12:2).
“But from the beginning of creation, ‘God made them male and female.’ ‘Therefore a man shall leave his father and mother and hold fast to his wife, and the two shall become one flesh’” (Mark 10:6-8).
“You shall not lie with a male as with a woman; it is an abomination” (Leviticus 18:22).
One would hope all Christians understand that marriage has an ontology—that is, marriage has an immutable, objective nature—that modern American lawmaking cannot change. Central to marriage is sexual complementarity, without which a relationship cannot in reality be a marriage. In other words, marriage is something. The law can no more change an intrinsically non-marital relationship into a marriage than it can change a man into a woman.
Maybe on their next soulless money-making venture, the Gaineses will feature a polycule.
“For what does it profit a man to gain the whole world and forfeit his soul?” (Mark 8:36)
On Fox News Friday, Jonathan Turley called SCOTUS’ decision on Mahmoud v. Taylor–letting parents opt *their own kids* out of public school lessons with propagandistic LGBTQ+ books–“an extraordinary victory for parental rights” [see books below]. The Sexual Left is fanatically pro-homosexuality, and thus at war with Judeo-Christian (biblical) morality (see Romans 1, Jude 7, Leviticus 20:13).
For decades, LGBTQ militants have been in the vanguard of stealing children’s innocence and corrupting their souls by injecting pro-homosexuality and pro-“transgender” ideas into their forming, impressionable minds. It began 35 years ago with a revolutionary so-called “children’s” book, “Daddy’s Roommate,” which indoctrinates innocent toddlers into accepting proud homosexuality as normal and good. Its grossly simplistic and manipulative message–to kiddos who have no idea what sex is, much less sexual deviancy: “Being gay is just one more kind of love.”
As Gay Power grew, so did the push to indoctrinate students into embracing sexual immorality as “who they are” (often using the now-discredited “born that way” myth to “jam” and silence moral critics). After pushing SCOTUS in 2015 to destroy the age-old legal definition of marriage as one-man/one-woman, the LGBTQ+ lobby moved on aggressively to their next Deviant Frontier: imprinting “trans” lunacy on the minds of the very young boys and girls, to the point of insisting that a child’s biological sex is not determinative but is merely their “gender” “assigned at birth.” (This directly conflicts with God’s Word, the Bible: in Mark 10:6, Jesus Christ echoes Genesis 1:27 in declaring: “But from the beginning of creation, God made them male and female.”)
In schools, leftist educational “change agents” have long held that captive students–your kids and grandkids –are *their* children to mold and manipulate, effectively making parents the enemy. The same LGBTQ movement that groomed children into embracing “gay” as some kind of inherent (innate) “sexual orientation” now grooms them into embracing “trans,” “non-binary,” “genderqueer,” and other “gender identities” as “who they are.” Deviance begets deviance; the movement that “normalized” homosexual sodomy and idolizes “diversity & inclusion” has zero standing to judge other perversions, recast as oppressed “sexual and gender minorities.”
The pro-LGBTQ “change agents” sell their warped ideology as “science” and *fact* to gullible media and intimidated parents, while brainwashed “experts,” including teachers, school counselors and doctors, push confused kids into medically “blocking” their puberty–and even horrific “gender transition” “surgeries” (read: mutilations). Thankfully, this abuse of minors can now be banned, per SCOTUS in Skrmetti v. U.S. Yet schools across the USA still have official policies helping transgender-identified students hide their “gender transition” from their own parents! Unthinkably nefarious, but true.
The great news is that everyday Americans, led by brave parents, are waking up and fighting back. Fear of Big LGBTQ+ is dissipating, as corporate media credibility plummets. The tide continues to turn against radical “queer” activists and their “woke” allies– who callously sexualize and radicalize children using a host of self-serving euphemisms: “inclusion,” “sexual orientation,” “love is love,” “equality,” be your “authentic self” (read: the opposite sex), calling opponents “haters” & “phobes,” etc. The Democrats and their LGBTQ-activist base overreached, and now they are paying the price. We must continue to ignore the Sexual Left’s lies, hysteria and rank anti-Christian bigotry and roll back the Gay/Trans (aka “Queer”) Revolution–to protect children and secure our God-given liberties.
P.S. As I exposed 32 years ago, Alyson Wonderland, an imprint of Alyson Publications, the same “gay” publishing house that put out “Daddy’s Roommate,” also published pro-pedophile books. More on that later….[to be continued]
Center For Morality/AmericansForTruth.com president Peter LaBarbera was a guest Monday, June 9 on VCY America’s “Crosstalk” program with host Jim Schneider. You can listen to the interview above, or on Crosstalk’s website, or on Sermon Audio’s site. Here is Crosstalk’s summary of the program.
Peter LaBarbera is the founder and president of Center for Morality and Americans for Truth. He’s a former reporter for the Washington Times, LifeSiteNews.com, WND.com and a former contributing editor for Human Events.
Interestingly, some are turning away from the moniker of June as “Pride Month” and instead, some are pushing “Fidelity Month,” “Life Month,” as well as “Family Month.” Peter believes this is happening because the homosexual activist movement won numerous victories, including imposing so-called, same-sex marriage on America. Then they went “full-bore” on the trans issue. This invited considerable push-back, including from the feminists who didn’t want men invading female spaces such as sports. Then there was the gender reassignment surgeries for children. The result is that they’ve reached so far that they’ve hit a breaking point as all of this is turning a lot of people off.
Nonetheless, the homosexual activist movement continues to make headlines in various ways. For example: A Navy ship named after a gay rights icon is to be renamed. A girls high school softball team wins a championship via the arm of a male born pitcher. The American Association of Retired Persons (AARP) doubles down on their pro LGBTQ stance. Get the details on these news items and more including what’s up with Target stores, Sesame Street and dangerous libraries.
Then candidate for president Donald Trump poses with homosexual couple, John Reid (right) and Alonzo Mable, after a campaign rally in Virginia last year. Reid is the GOP’s current candidate for lieutenant governor of Va. Photo: JohnReidForVirginia.com.
By Linda Harvey; this article was originally published 6/2/25 on MissionAmerica.com.
Despite the policy triumphs showered on America by Donald Trump, there remains a blind spot in his administration. And in the view of many of his supporters, it’s a big one.
I remain a cheerleader of so much of what the Trump people are accomplishing as they try to restore order and sanity to our nation. So it’s agonizing to witness a grotesquely disordered policy gain muscle on his watch.
The GOP under Trump’s influence is embracing open homosexuality and same sex “marriage” and expecting that his base will not notice. Guess what? Plenty of us are noticing, especially when it comes down to this: faithful Christians who support authentic marriage are being fired by open homosexuals appointed by Trump.
Ric Grenell, named by Trump to lead the Kennedy Center, apparently just fired the Center’s vice president Floyd Brown over past comments Brown made supporting traditional marriage. Grenell is openly “gay” with a male “husband.” Brown, who is pro-Trump, refused when asked to recant past comments of support for biblical sexual morality and traditional marriage, revealed in a CNN post. So he was shown the door.
At the very least, where’s the religious liberty Trump promises? And would it be too much trouble for Republicans to ditch the love fest with allegedly “conservative gays”? It was not hard to predict that eventually there would be a showdown of values.
And here it is. The Ric Grenells, Scott Bessents, Tammy Bruces are ultimately going to choose their aberrant desires over religious liberty for traditional Christians. Homosexuals are too committed to the road they have chosen, which is living a life that gives a big middle finger to God’s design for healthy sexual function and marriage.
But until they are overcomers, these are public figures who can mislead a lot of people as they stab faithful Christians in the back.
And as such, these folks are a danger to conscience freedoms and school policy initiatives rooting out pro-“LGBTQ” lessons and programs. They can stand up against gender distortion all they want—and that’s a good thing. But they and their GOP allies seem to draw a hard line at fighting the companion perversion of sodomy.
It’s highly likely the “gay-cons” look wistfully at today’s school climate where homosexuality is often openly affirmed. “If only…” they muse about their own adolescent years.
Media homosexuals like Dave Rubin and Guy Benson are similarly double-minded. Benson sent numerous scathing looks my way when I was interviewed in studio by evangelical Christian radio host Sandy Rios years ago, when he was her producer. I couldn’t figure out why this person I had never met was so rude until many years later when he announced his open homosexual identity.
My hope for all these people is that they grow up emotionally and spiritually, realize they were not “born this way” and embrace the bodies God gave them (and their best functions) as they reconcile with their Creator.
Grenell and Benson profess to be Christians, but I am very skeptical that anyone so openly committed to sin and so ready to ditch the clear instructions of Scripture is a true believer. For a refresher on what Scripture says, go HERE.
In another jaw-dropper, the GOP in Virginia is standing behind its lieutenant governor candidate, John Reid, a homosexual who also professes Christian faith. Trump expressed his support for Reid in 2024 at a rally in Virginia and even posed for a photo [see above] standing between Reid and his male lover, who regularly campaigns with him.
But would a true believer tuck dollar bills into the clothing of a drag queen performer, and smile for the camera, as Reid was pictured doing on an Internet site? Or allow himself to be photographed with a whole group of female impersonators? Reid, a former Richmond radio talk show host, has a much younger male lover to whom he is “engaged.”
His candidacy could spell doom for the GOP ticket in a state where Democrats are proposing a state constitutional amendment enshrining same sex “marriage” and Reid’s own position seems squishy at best.
“A 2021 study by political scientists Gabriele Magni and Andrew Reynolds found that Republican candidates perceived as LGBTQ+ suffer an electoral penalty of up to 14.8 percentage points among GOP voters and over 17% among conservatives overall. This so-called ‘identity penalty’ could drag not just Reid down, but any Republican linked to him by proximity on the ballot.”
And a 2025 Gallup poll tells the promising truth, that support for same sex “marriage” among Republicans has dropped 14 points in the last three years.
To be fair, this coziness by the GOP leadership with open homosexuals predates Trump. CPAC extended an invitation to the Log Cabin Republicans to exhibit in 2018, while denying an exhibit to pro-family Mass Resistance.
Let’s not forget former U.S. Senator Rob Portman from my state of Ohio, and his backing of same sex “marriage.”
Here’s what I wrote in 2021 about broadening Republican support for homosexuality:
“Mitt Romney. Marco Rubio, whose campaign was heavily backed by pro-homosexual billionaire Paul Singer and who famously said he believes homosexuality is not a choice. Lisa Murkowski. Susan Collins. The congressional representatives who voted for the ‘Equality Act’– John Katko and Tom Reed of New York, and Brian Fitzpatrick of Pennsylvania.
“Ric Grenell. CPAC. American Opportunity Alliance. Catalyst PAC. American Unity PAC. Big Tent Republicans. Log Cabin Republicans. The once-conservative Chamber of Commerce, now fully transitioned into a shill for the homosexual/ transgender agenda….
“In Ohio, we have our own troubling history on this. Former Republican Governor John Kasich surrounded himself with homosexual advisors and evolved into an open ‘LGBTQ’ advocate. Current Governor Mike DeWine has a checkered record that includes sporadic support for homosexual demands. Our current Secretary of State, Republican Frank LaRose, is a backer of Ohio’s version of the ‘Equality Act.’ Open homosexuals have served in key Ohio GOP party positions.”
And in 2022, four Republican Ohio congressmen—Mike Carey, Anthony Gonzalez, Dave Joyce and Mike Turner—supported the pro-homosexual “Respect for Marriage” Act.
Friends, this needs to change, because we see where it leads. We look like the hypocritical fools we are when party leaders wail about the 13- year- old boy secretly counseled to become “trans,” but apparently have no problem with a 13- year-old boy being instructed in “safe” anal sex for his “dates” with another male, as “LGBTQ- inclusive” comprehensive sex ed encourages.
It’s all perversion—we all know it — and stop pretending otherwise, even if there are seemingly well-spoken people in the “gay” camp. Until God gets a grip on their hearts, their venom and claws will emerge if they have authority over faithful Christians.
America is doomed if the most otherwise sane among us join hands with this movement. God is not mocked.
Below is an interview with my good friend Cliff Kincaid of America’s Survival, who has done tremendous work over many years exposing Communists and other destructive leftist forces in America. We discuss openly homosexual Trump advisor Ric Grenell’s firing of longtime conservative activist Floyd Brown as a Trump appointee charged with cleaning up the “woke” Kennedy Center–because CNN dug up an old tape of Floyd criticizing homosexual activist GOP staff on Capitol Hill undermining the Party’s pro-family platform. So, ironically, the conservative Christian, Brown, was “canceled” by the gay guy ostensibly on his own MAGA team! (Sounds pretty “woke” to me; does President Trump approve?)
Incidentally, Grenell, sounding a lot like leftist “gay” theological revisionists, claims he was born gay and therefore was created that way by God. “So the fact of the matter is I fully embrace that I was made this way in the image of God and you can be gay and be a Christian. And there’s no problem with it,” Grenell told another “Homo Con,” Dave Rubin, in 2020.
We also discuss the candidacy of open homosexual Republican John Reid for Lt. Gov in Virginia, its implications for the GOP, as well as the leak of an uber-twisted perversion tape involving leftist journalist (and free speech advocate) Glenn Greenwald. The latter is a pro-homosexuality activist, a “gay parent,” a devotee of sadomasochism, and a favorite of conservatives (for defending Trump).
