Pro-Family Trump Nominee for Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals is Approved by Senate: LGBT Activists Unglued

Doug Mainwaring : Apr 26, 2018  Lifesitenews.com

"President Trump continues to keep his promise to appoint constitutionalists to the courts, and now the Senate is following his lead in confirming Kyle Duncan to the Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals." -Tony Perkins

(Washington, DC)—[Lifesitenews.com] LGBT and progressive pundits and politicos are short circuiting over the U.S. Senate's 50-47 party line vote confirming conservative attorney Kyle Duncan's appointment to a lifetime seat on the U.S. Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals.

After the U.S. Supreme Court ruled in favor of same-sex marriage in 2015, Kyle called the decision an "abject failure" that "imperils civic peace" and which "raises a question about the legitimacy of the court."

Duncan, age 46 from Louisiana, has had a stellar career standing up for the immutable definition of marriage, standing against the infiltration of gender identity ideology in our courts, protecting the unborn, and defending religious liberty.

Washington DC's behemoth pro-gay and transgender lobbying organization, The Human Rights Campaign (HRC), issued a hyperbolic statement in advance of the Senate vote, declaring Duncan to be a "dangerous extremist" whose "career of attacks on LGBTQ people makes clear he is incapable of this fundamental responsibility. He is unfit to serve and the Senate must reject his nomination."

The HRC statement continued:

"Duncan's record of anti-LGBTQ advocacy is alarming. He represented the Gloucester County School Board in their case against Gavin Grimm, the transgender high school student whose restroom access was restricted based on his transgender status. He advocated on behalf of Louisiana in the state's bid to uphold its same-sex marriage ban and wrote an amicus brief for Louisiana and 14 other states arguing their same-sex marriage bans did not undermine the decision in U.S. v. Windsor, the landmark Supreme Court case that required the federal government to recognize the marriages of same-sex couples. He also argued that a couple married in New York could not have their names added to the birth certificate of a child they adopted in Louisiana because the state did not recognize same-sex marriages at the time and its adoption statute does not allow unmarried couples to adopt"...
