Oh God!

An unnamed congress member invited her to the State of the Union speech tonight to represent all the Americans that have lost religious freedom under this administration.

She's back. Appearently fighting to avoid paying legal fees

In August, Bunning dismissed the couples’ suit against Davis, finding that the legislature resolved the matter. But the altered marriage licenses don’t change the fact that Davis refused to do her duty last summer, and she forced the couples to sue in order to claim their civil right to marriage, lawyers for the couples say.

“Courts recognize that when successful civil rights plaintiffs obtain a direct benefit from a court-ordered victory, such as in this case, they can be entitled to their legal expenses to deter future civil rights violations by government officials,” William Sharp, legal director of the Kentucky ACLU and one of the lawyers for the couples, said in a prepared statement.

I think the Courts ruled against her multiple times, please correct me if I am wrong.

Separately, Rowan County filed a response saying that whatever Bunning decides about legal fees, the county government should not be forced to pay anything. Davis — an elected official — did not act on behalf of Rowan County when she refused to issue marriage licenses, and the county’s fiscal court did not control the internal operations of her office, wrote Jeffrey C. Mando, an attorney for Rowan County.

I kind of disagree here too its a representative of the County if she is unable to do it they need to get someone who is able to do it but if I remember correctly the second in line approval guy got sick of her shit and stopped doing them too.

Her rich evangelical friends, who put her out as a sacrificial lamb should cough up the money. So much for sacrifice.

'Former county clerk Kim Davis, who refused to issue marriage licenses in Kentucky to same-sex couples, must pay a total of $260,104 in fees and expenses to attorneys who represented one couple, according to a federal judge’s ruling.

That’s in addition to $100,000 in damages a jury said the former Rowan County clerk should pay the couple who sued.'


Good. I hope the fallout for her continues. She fucked around, she's still finding out.
