We now know that Trump is taking care of Ghislaine Maxwell because the convicted child sex trafficker was just moved from maximum security to a “luxury” minimum-security facility.
It’s disturbing to hear with increased frequency that Evangelical Christians are disowning their gay and transgender children. They point to their faith as the reason for their actions. “It says in the Bible…”
