Chick-fil-a’s Owner Is Newly Connected to Anti-Equality Act Donations
Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me.
Fool me seventeen times, and what is actually wrong with me?
This week, The Daily Beastreported that a series of Christian billionaires have donated large amounts of money to an organization that is spearheading the derailment of the Equality Act. The group is called the National Christian Charitable Foundation, and its structure allows for donors to contain a hefty tell in where their funds go. That say counts as a "suggestion," according to the inform , but when there's that much capital involved, suggestions include a lot of power.
Naturally, the key players are as expected: Betsy DeVos and family, those crafty bigots at Hobby Lobby, and Dan Cathy, the absurdly rich owner of Chick-fil-a. The proposed act, which passed the Residence of Representatives with a bipartisan majority and is supported by two-thirds of Americans, would shield lesbian, gay, bi, and transgender people from discrimination at a federal level.

After courting controversy for years, the fast-food chain Chick-fil-A will no longer fund two organizations that have historically opposed same-sex marriage.

Chick-fil-A Supporters Line Up for Appreciation Day
Aug. 1, 2012 -- People across the country flocked to Chick-fil-A today, not because of the fast-food chain's chicken sandwiches, but because of its CEO's vocal support of traditional marriage.
In Augusta, Ga., the local outlet ran out of food and had to close early as many of the chain's stores reported record crowds. CEO Dan Cathy appeared at a Fayetteville, N.C., Chick-fil-A to thank cutomers for dining there.
More than 630,000 supporters signed up to rejoice Chick-fil-A Appreciation Day today, which former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee created to counter a boycott launched by gay marriage activists last week after Cathy said he was "guilty as charged" for not supporting gay marriage.
"The goal is simple," Huckabee wrote on the Facebook page for the event. "Let's affirm a business that operates on Christian principles and whose executives are willing to take a endure for the Godly values we espouse by simply showing up and eating at Chick Fil-A on Wednesday, August 1."

Hi everyone,
We reached JFK on Friday darkness after traveling eight and half hour from Copenhagen. That’s a long moment to sit in the dark, but with Heide and the girls a row away and strenuous to hear over the engines, I was functionally flying solo.
I filled the time- starting with curried chicken on a baguette procured at the airport and some red wine and cappuccino ordered on the plane.

I also scan an exposé on Chick-fil-A, which is the topic for today.
I like Chick-fil-A sandwiches, though I’ve only eaten them twice, and just at residency functions. The meat is juicy and the sauce tangy. The elongated lines at lunch say me residents like them too.
So here’s the problem. Chick-Fil-A has a long history of supporting anti-LGBTQ causes, donating grand sums to organizations that opposed marriage equality and to groups like Exodus International, which promoted “conversion therapy.” Following public outcry earlier in
