House Democrats today demanded the resignation of a USAID appointee over her reported history of 'homophobic, misogynistic, and xenophobic' comments
and cataloged a number of posts that lawmakers cited in their letter. Corrigan wrote that “our homo-empire couldn’t tolerate even one commercial enterprise not in full submission to the tyrannical LGBT agenda.”
“Liberal democracy is little more than a front for the war being waged against us by those who fundamentally despise not only our way of life, but life itself,” Corrigan wrote in another post. “We are left wondering how Ms. Corrigan is able to effectively serve an agency whose principles are so clearly antithetical to her own,” House Democrats wrote in the letter.
POLITICO also reported that Corrigan wrote an op-ed in The Conservative that called for women to assume traditional gender roles of mother, wife and homemaker. “Based on these statements, so hostile to the core mission of the agency, it is clear that Ms. Corrigan cannot effectively liaise with the White House and meet USAID’s staffing needs,” the Democratic letter read.
