➡️ Our week wraps up with an anti-LGBTQ+ mom in Oregon who believes God has called her to adopt more children — but not to follow the state’s laws protecting LGBTQ+ kids. This feels like a good moment to remind our readers of crisis hotlines currently available to queer youth in America.
We also say goodbye for now to George Santos, and cover the latest messy fallout from Candace Owens’ “transvestigation” of France’s first lady.
Finally, Kim Davis will not let go of her decade-long feud with marriage equality, and Canada is protecting a nonbinary American from Trump’s policies.
Enjoy your weekend,
