She looks like what I’d expect from a lesbian athiest.

We applaud Senator Mike Lee (R-Utah) for putting a hold in the Senate on leftist lesbian legal activist Chai Feldblum, whom President Donald Trump foolishly reappointed to the federal EEOC (Equal Employment Opportunity Commission) last December. AFTAH has followed Feldblum (an atheist) for many years and fought her back in 2009 when she was first appointed to the EEOC by Obama. By the way, she petulantly blocks me on Twitter, indicating her lack of impartiality and strong activist bias.
Feldblum argues that the battle between “gay rights” and religious liberties is a “zero-sum game” and that LGBTQ legal activists should and invariably will win those fights. I don’t know what Trump was thinking when he reappointed her. After all, he ran for office pledging to his base of evangelical Christian voters that he would ardently defend religious freedom. And “LGBTQ rights” is the Number One threat to freedom of conscience in America today. How about draining that Obama LGBTQ swamp, Mr. President?
Below is a column that Sen. Lee wrote back in February. Please support him by calling his office, and the two Senators representing your state. –Peter LaBarbera, AFTAH; Twitter: @PeterLaBarbera

I don't know how I missed this story; it is huge. As anyone paying attention knows, Chai Feldblum is the ultra radical leftist homo Obama appointed to the EEOC in 2009 (during a recess so that congress didn't have a say.) She is famous for stating that "religion should lose" to the radical "gay" agenda.
Senator Mike Lee’s excellent column mentioned in the piece:
A Threat to Marriage from the EEOC
By Sen. Mike Lee, Feb. 9, 2018
Sen. Mike Lee (R-Utah)
The Equal Employment Opportunity Commission may seem like an unlikely threat to religious liberty and the institution of marriage. After all, the federal agency was created to combat workplace discrimination by the Civil Rights Act of 1964. But sadly, the agency created to fight discrimination now threatens to discriminate itself; one nominee to the commission’s five-member board wants to use the federal agency’s power to undermine our nation’s founding principles.
Chai Feldblum was first nominated to the EEOC by President Barack Obama in 2009, but she was not confirmed by the Senate. In March 2010, President Obama skirted the Senate by seating Feldblum on the commission when Congress was in recess. The Senate ultimately confirmed Feldblum on a 54-41 vote during a lame-duck session in December of that year. Only two Republicans voted for Feldblum’s confirmation.
Last December, President Donald Trump re-nominated Feldblum, along with two Republicans, to the EEOC. If all three nominees are confirmed, Republicans will have a 3-2 majority on the EEOC.
If Feldblum were a typical Democrat, it might make sense to let her nomination proceed through the Senate along with her two Republican colleagues. But Feldblum is no typical Democrat. Her radical views on marriage and the appropriate use of government power place her far outside even the liberal mainstream.
Feldblum has argued that, “I, for one, am not sure marriage is a normatively good institution.” Instead of promoting marriage as the best arrangement for the emotional and economic security of families, Feldblum believes “all of us are harmed… when society fails to acknowledge the wide array of non-marital social structures.”
Feldblum even signed a manifesto proposing government recognition of “diverse kinds” of partnerships that “move beyond the narrow confines of marriage politics” in the United States.
Don’t think for a second that Feldblum’s derogatory views about marriage will stay private. Feldblum wants to turn her opinions into federal policy through the EEOC.
“The EEOC has jurisdiction only over employment,” Feldblum told The Washington Blade in 2015. “But other federal agencies that enforce sex discrimination provisions often look to our interpretation for guidance in interpreting the laws they enforce.”
And don’t think for a second that you, your family, and your neighbors will be left alone if Feldblum gets her way. Feldblum has described modern-day politics as a “zero-sum game,” where rights for LGBT Americans are secured only by curtailing the rights of religious Americans.
Likewise, Feldblum believes her radical agenda “cannot be adequately advanced if pockets of resistance… are permitted to flourish.” She therefore has argued that “no individual exceptions based on religious beliefs” should ever be allowed if they conflict with “the goal of liberty for gay people.”
Feldblum’s desire to use the might of government to stamp out traditional marriage supporters stands in stark contrast to Justice Anthony Kennedy’s majority opinion in Obergefell v Hodges, which redefined marriage in 2015.
“The First Amendment ensures that religious organizations and persons (emphasis added) are given proper protection as they seek to teach the principles that are so fulfilling and so central to their lives and faiths,” Kennedy wrote. “And to their own deep aspirations to continue the family structure they have long revered.”
As the Supreme Court acknowledges, America’s tradition of religious freedom embraces all. Rather than a “zero-sum game” that pits Americans against each other, we should work to build an America where “all possess alike liberty of conscience and immunities of citizenship,” as George Washington wrote in 1790.
President Trump and Senate Democrats should reject Chai Feldblum’s divisive agenda by finding a more mainstream candidate for the EEOC, one who respects the institution of marriage and religious freedom for all Americans.
Why on Earth was the freak Feldblum reappointed by Trump?
Zhe can always move to Arizona and run for U.S. Senate in 2020. Arizona voters have already shown themselves stupid enough to elect a U.S. Senator from the same freak show.
In San Francisco a gender confused administrator at the Arts Commission has demanded that she be addressed as Mx Anne Trickey. She controls permitting for street artists and has openly stated that anyone who addresses her incorrectly will lose their permit.
She looks like what I’d expect from a lesbian athiest.
Isn’t Feldblum JEWISH?? Not a good one.
SO lost, SO unaware of it........SO sad.
Yes, she is Jewish. An Orthodox Jew at that. Gotta wonder how strong her religion is in her life.
She has NO GOD in her with what she said and does.
That right there is enough to justify rejecting her.
If she married Mr T, she’d be Chai T.
My guess is that government is so big, someone under Trump authorized it. That someone should be removed from their position.
It's customary to select members from both parties, and since Feldblum was already in the Commission, she was the default selection.
I think that Trump is still VERY naive about the wiles of the left.
