As a Catholic, like Alito, I think it's so important for you to know how little—how absolutely not at all—your marriage (or your LGBTQ identity) impacts my religious liberty. In fact, refusing to acknowledge your marriage (or your LGBTQ identity) is a grave affront to your innate human dignity.

As I’ve been saying, the federal government is hunting humans. No one should be shocked by the abject evil that propped Trump up, put him in power and will do, literally, anything to keep him in power. “It’s a Klan plan” is not hyperbole, intended to get attn, it’s the whole truth.
