A senior official at the U.S. government's top foreign aid agency has departed after a brief, but controversial time there, accusing USAID of 'rampant anti-Christian sentiment.'

U.S. Marines assigned to Joint Task Force - Leeward Islands stack boxes of tarps from the U.S. Agency for International Development in Melville Hall, Dominica, Sept 29, 2017.

Earlier in the day, Corrigan started tweeting that she wouldn't remain"silent as the media has attacked me for my Christian beliefs, which are shared by the majority of Americans." In particular, she denounced same-sex marriage and declared,"Men aren't women" -- seemingly a reference to transgender people.

"We will investigate any complaints of anti-Christian bias Ms. Corrigan has raised during her tenure at the Agency," she said.

A senior official at the U.S. justice league's top foreign aid agency has departed after a brief, but controversial time there, accusing USAID of 'rampant anti-Christian sentiment.'

Her Christian beliefs, can be shared by the majority of Americans, as she mentioned, but not her opinon and narrow-minded view.

These MAGAtards are the US version of ISIS

Trump come November

Should not have quit...toughen up and go back to work

BYE

Another faux Xtian thrown to the lions. Perhaps Jesus Trump will save her.

My job is 123 but I want to do 456 because of my religion. Life doesn't work that way. If you can't do the job leave. Job doesn't conform to you. So entitled.

Adios, and good riddance.

Or read that Trump's cronies expect US aid to be pro-Christian not pro-humanity.

REAL NEWS MSM IS THE VIRUS

Good riddance.

Christians are becoming targets in this nation, Christianity is the last acceptable group in the USA that is allowed to be openly mocked and discriminated against.

Bye bye

Christians are always playing the victim card ..just like their God Cheezuz

I love how 'We disagree with one of your more questionable beliefs, but pretty much agree with the rest' automatically equates to Anti-christian. It's like they are 'You are 100% behind us, or you are our enemy'... Wonder where I've heard that attitude before?

Ms. Currigan is a beached whale, not comprehending what is happening in America since the majority favor same-sex marriage, don't tolerate a bigot, and beginning to not favor radical political appointees from publically expressing their personal opinions on the government's dime.

Only the best people yeah right

That aint news thats known fact as every school, college, govr buisness is anti religion... hmm maybe you should cover that story. Hell even biden says us schools should be more open to religious studies including islam....

Hey if she's looking for the most 'anti-christian sentiment' out there she might as well be looking at Donald Trump. How can you admire a dude that pays off a porn star he fucked, with campaign contributions? Rape, adultry, lies, deception? Fuuuuck.

So glad she is out of harms way.

Adios muchacha

If a 20-something recent college grad with no discernable expertise, and an apparent 'trustafarian' based on her Instagram feed, acting as a 'liason' counts as a senior official, then sure...okay. MerrittCorrigan FPWellman

Bye, Felicia! Don’t let the door hit ya where the good Lord split ya!

Well - it’s true.

So it hasn't changed from back when Obama was in charge? Got it, thanks.

Trump claims right to issue executive order on vote-by-mailTrump today claimed to have the authority to issue an executive order on mail-in voting in the November election and said he hadn’t ruled out doing so, in spite of the Constitution’s expressly giving states the right to run their elections Come January 20th-An overwhelming majority is going to evict the Trumps from the WH-which will be cleaned and decontaminated before President Biden moves in. realDonaldTrump is just blowing smoke won't work. He has nothing. It would disenfranchise voters in 5 states that ONLY vote by mail (WA,OR,UT,CO,HI) I know here in WA we do not even have polls even if we wanted to vote in person Several days ago I suggested voting in person or going to a drop box whenever possible because we've seen Trump/cult will do anything and everything to steal this election. Someone suggested to vote by mail anyway to show Trump. Don't take anything for granted.

Trump could lose Florida and 2020 election with this VP pick, Dems sayVal Demings has pressed through many obstacles in her career of public service, and with America bitterly divided over social justice issues, Demings has appeared as a prime candidate for Joe Biden’s VP. MSNBC’s Ari Melber reports on Rep. Val Demings in this edition of The Beat’s Backstory Series, which focuses on substantive reporting on the key figures in the campaign. “When home state figures are added to a national ticket, it’s big local news and would certainly give the Biden campaign a new way to mobilize Florida Democrats,” Melber notes. The report provides an objective account of potential pros and cons in Deming’s career as Orlando’s first female Police Chief and her career in Congress. AriMelber They all have good qualities and could evolve into better things as time goes on. Biden2020 AriMelber Oddly, that wasn't your position on Harris AriMelber I like RepValDemings she & KeishaBottoms are my favorite 2 people for Biden’s VP pick. I’m a former Republican (lifelong until 2016). I’m a happy independent that stands for justice. We need police reform, most importantly police must police themselves though for real reform.
