Washington Times -The Trump administration is defending one of the president’s federal court nominees, who has come under attack from LGBT advocates and his home state senator, after saying same-sex marriage is worse than abortion because of “the damage it does to civil society.”
Gordon Giampietro, who was nominated to the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Wisconsin, is a lawyer in Wisconsin and previously worked for the federal government.
In a radio interview in 2015 on “The Lydia LoCoco Show,” a program about faith and life, Mr. Giampietro,
said the birth control pill is “an assault on nature,” and that
Justice Anthony M. Kennedy “went off the rails years ago in Lawrence
against Texas” when he issued the 2003 decision, which ended laws
against sodomy. “Whenever you go against God’s plan, bad things
are going to happen,” he said in the recording, which focused on the
Supreme Court’s ruling legalizing same-sex marriage.
