Trump administration allowing foster care agencies to discriminate against potential parents on a number of things, because the Trump Administration is a real piece of shit.
"Tradition" is just a word people use to make themselves feel better about being an asshole.

Lara Trump tells Federal Employees about their missed paychecks: you are going through "a little bit of pain" but border wall is bigger than you & these are sacrifices for the "future of our country"
This is the text book definition of being out of touch.

teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"

So, a billionaire doesn't understand food insecurity. I am profoundly shocked.

Roger Stone is sinking like a stone. Mueller and the FBI are working hard without pay.

Just read that the US is sending asylum seekers back to Mexico (or wherever else they're from) while their cases are decided.
Does anyone, EVER, tell Trump what's legal and what isn't?

Shutdown is over, baby! Trump relented with no border wall money. I'll bet he isn't going to try this shutdown nonsense again.
