Whoa! Calm down there, Kim. Don’t have too much fun.

On Tuesday morning, it emerged that Kim Davis would attend this evening’s State of the Union. Her lawyers, however, declined to say who had invited her. Thankfully, the Huffington Post has figured it out: Jim Jordan, Republican from Ohio and chairman of the House Freedom Caucus.

In a fantastic troll perpetrated by an unnamed congressman and the Family Research Council, Kim Davis will attend tonight’s State of the Union address to deliver a truly, uplifting message: No matter how ignorant or rude you are, you can still get access to our nation’s leaders.

In the early 1950s, writer Patricia Highsmith had every reason to hide her pride, and quite a few to hate herself. Living under the tyranny of McCarthyism was devastating for those with same-sex attraction—if homosexuality was acknowledged in public at all, it was condemned. And yet, Highsmith transcended.

In Kentucky, county employees will no longer be required to suffer the indignity of their names signifying love and equality. This is the legacy of Rowan County Clerk Kim Davis.

The guitarist in the band Survivor is suing Mike Huckabee’s presidential campaign, the Associated Press reports, over the Arkansas governor’s use of the band’s 1982 hit, “Eye of the Tiger.”

Kim Davis arguably has a lot of contempt: for gay people, for the legal system, for the Second Amendment (that’s a long sleeves joke) but she doesn’t want it on her record.

The Westboro Baptist Church has announced its intentions to protest outside of Rowan County Clerk Kim Davis’ courthouse in Morehead, Ky., a St. Louis Fox affiliate reports.

Turns out the Vatican has one final burn for Kim Davis, the anti-gay clerk who flew a little too close to the sun when she released the news that the pope had acknowledged her existence. Not only was her meeting not a “real audience” with the cool guy, the day before, the Vatican confirms, the pope straight-up chilled with an openly gay man and his partner.

After several days of unflattering discussion about the Cool Pope’s date with arguably the least cool woman in America, the Vatican has finally stepped forward to try to salvage his reputation: yes, he did meet with her, but it was more of a pity thing and not, say, a papal endorsement of her backwards views.

According to a lengthy press release put out by Kim Davis’ attorney, the Pope squeezed some time into his busy schedule last week for a one-on-one meeting with everyone’s least favorite (and notably non-Catholic!) county clerk, Kim Davis. During which, the Pope reportedly thanked Kim “for her courage” and told her to “stay strong.”

Years from now, I imagine, Kim Davis will dig through her dresser and find a powder-blue, stretchy long-sleeved shirt staring back at her. And she’ll remember wearing it as she walked out of the jailhouse to Eye of the Tiger, thrusting her arms in the air in a fog of ecclesiastical bliss, as dozens of people clapped their hands...for her. They were all clapping for her. Was that the best day of my life? she’ll wonder and the question will leave her cold, because maybe it was.

Sticks and stones may break your bones, but names will never hurt contemptuous, anti-gay civil servants.

Kentucky clerk Kim Davis has found a way to have her wedding cake and eat it too: she’s back in the office collecting a paycheck but she won’t be issuing any marriage licenses to gay couples, no siree.

In what could be termed as a serious power grab—or, alternatively, lawful compliance with a judge’s orders—a deputy Kentucky clerk says he’ll ensure couples can get married in his county, despite the best efforts of his anti-gay boss, Kim Davis.

Kim Davis, the Kentucky county clerk and Christian conservative hero who went to jail last week for refusing to issue marriage licenses to same-sex couples, was ordered released by a federal judge today.

Almost 300 ralliers came out in support of county clerk-turned-anti-gay martyr Kim Davis yesterday, many of whom (at least according to their signs) appear to have spoken directly with God and/or Jesus himself.

Kim Davis, the Kentucky county clerk who refuses to grant marriage licenses to same-sex couples, will appeal the contempt of court ruling that put her in jail, her attorney said Friday. Davis has been locked up since Thursday, and her deputies have been granting long-awaited licenses to gay couples in her absence.

With anti-gay Clerk Kim Davis locked up for contempt of court, William Smith and James Yates were able to this morning to finally obtain a gay marriage license from the Rowan County, Kentucky, courthouse.

After Rowan County, Kentucky, clerk Kim Davis was held in contempt of court and locked up Thursday for refusing to issue marriage licenses to same-sex couples “on God’s authority,” five of her six deputy clerks told a judge they would begin issuing the licenses as the law requires.
