She has been arguing that, as a Christian, she should not have to follow state rules about judicial impartiality.

A Texas judge is asking a federal court to overturn marriage equality in the U.S., arguing in a lawsuit filed on Friday that marriage for same-sex couples is unconstitutional because it was legalized in a decision that “subordinat[ed] state law to the policy preferences of unelected judges.”

The case involves Judge Dianne Hensley of Waco, Texas, who has been involved in years of legal proceedings to try to win the right to not perform marriages for same-sex couples while still performing them for opposite-sex couples. She claims that, as a Christian, she should not have to follow state judicial ethics rules about impartiality.

I don't think anyone is taking this constant assault step-up as seriously as they should.

We thought Roe Vs Wade was safe, now nobody even talks about it anymore. Project 2025 outlined all of this and how to accomplish it and so far they've been following the playbook to great success.

And we're here "LOL AT THE FUNNY LADY."

Yah it won't pass or even be considered. Today.

But next time someone with more power and influence raises it with a stronger case or argument, most of us will have tuned out as it gains more and more traction. Like they did with everything else so far.

After same-sex marriage they will go after interracial marriage. I dare some fucker to tell me that's hyperbolic, I already know the pretense and argument they will use to "ease" in the long dick of dicking americans.
