I do. Mostly because that bigot is passing laws that affect me and mine.

Chip Roy’s got bigger problems in his own backyard, though.

Like you know. Climate change killing off his constintuents in yet another heat wave. Or like power grid failures leading to massive state wide black outs… killing off his constituents… Oh and gun violence that’s on the rise. And like I’m sure I’m missing maybe ten or twenty…dozen… other issues he could be worried about.

Problem is these fucknuts influence talking points for large groups of other fucknuts, and their bullshit eventually gets exported around the globe

I can’t access the website at all from Europe, however I’ve never heard of it before and don’t know how reliable it is.

I can point to this recent article from Finland’s national broadcaster about the person in question, Päivi Räsänen who is from the Christian Democrat party:

International conservative Christian organisation raises money for Päivi Räsänen trial https://yle.fi/a/74-20043075

I found the relevant tweet from Päivi Räsänen, and the biblical verses in the pic (Romans 1:24:27). I’ll provide the machine translation of one and some Anglo translation of the second (I think that it’s KJV):

What she said

The #church has announced that it is the official partner of #seta n #Pride2019. How does the doctrine of the church, the #bible, fit together with the fact that shame and sin are raised as a matter of pride?

²⁴Wherefore God also gave them up to uncleanness through the lusts of their own hearts, to dishonour their own bodies between themselves: ²⁵Who changed the truth of God into a lie, and worshipped and served the creature more than the Creator, who is blessed for ever. Amen. ²⁶For this cause God gave them up unto vile affections: for even their women did change the natural use into that which is against nature: ²⁷And likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust one toward another; men with men working that which is unseemly, and receiving in themselves that recompence of their error which was meet.

If I understood correctly Juhana Pohjola was mostly shared the junk above.
