The Trump EO is certain to rip the minds of Leftists,
Homosexuals and Separation/Church fanatics. It will probably end up in the
Supreme Court. If I was Trump I’d tell the Leftists to get in line at SCOTUS.

Trump Ready to Sign Religious Freedom Order on National
Day of Prayer
By Emily Jones

President Trump reportedly
will sign a controversial religious liberty executive order Thursday, just
before he and conservative leaders celebrate the National Day of Prayer.
Citing senior administration
officials, Politico reports that
Trump has invited conservative speakers to the White House, where he will sign
the executive order.
The draft seeks to provide
exemptions for religious people and organizations who object to same-sex
marriage, premarital sex, abortion, contraception and trans identity.
"The language is
very, very strong," one conservative source told Politico.
Liberty Counsel founder and
chairman Mat Staver says it's essential to restore religious freedom
protections at this time after years of attacks from President Obama.
In a commentary in The Orlando Sentinel, Staver
argues that religious rights were undermined by Obamacare and numerous Obama
appointees, like Equal Employment Opportunity Commission Chairman Chai
Feldblum.
"When asked about
'sexual liberty' (the LGBT agenda) and religious liberty, Feldblum said,
'Sexual liberty should win in most cases. ...(I)n almost all cases sexual
liberty should win.' She could not think of any instance in which religious
liberty should win," Staver points out.
Feldblum is still in office.
When it comes to Obamacare,
Staver cites instances like the Hobby Lobby case and Little Sisters of the
Poor, in which pro-life Americans were being forced to violate their religious
beliefs on abortion.
"Obamacare spawned an
unprecedented number of lawsuits over religious liberty. Most of the litigation
is still ongoing. President Trump now has the opportunity, through executive order,
to reverse course and rein in the federal government's assault on religious
freedom," Staver writes.
The American Civil Liberties
Union (ACLU) is already revving up for a court battle against the expected
order from Trump.
The ACLU says if he signs an
executive order "that attempts to provide a license to discriminate
against women or LGBT people, we will see him in court."
