A leading evangelical group is terrified that “radical leftist” homosexuals are planning a coup against Donald Trump.

The warning comes from the Liberty Counsel, the ultra-conservative Christian law firm that battles against LGBT rights across the US.

They warned that “an army of radical leftists is gathering… to mobilize against President Trump’s policies on the local, state, and federal levels”

The law firm continued: “Their agenda includes an aggressive pro-LGBTQ campaign that includes fighting against any religious liberty protections that they deem to be ‘antigay’ offered by President Trump or Congress.

“The ACLU (American Civil Liberties Union) is already attempting to overturn President Trump’s revocation of the former president’s Bathroom Directive.

“The plans of this radical group are now among the biggest threats to life, liberty, and family in the history of America.

“Now armed with over $80 million in post-election war chest funds, the ACLU is pushing to advance its radical agenda like never before.”

The Liberty Counsel rose to national prominence after providing free legal representation to embattled Kentucky clerk Kim Davis, when she refused to carry out her duties because of same-sex marriage.

The group has more recently been secretly helping Republican lawmakers draft anti-LGBT legislation in a number of states, leading to a wave of anti-LGBT ‘conscience’ bills and ‘bathroom laws’ that exploit transgender issues as an excuse to strip back anti-discrimination protections.

The group has shockingly anti-LGBT views, however. Its head Mat Staver recently falsely claimed that first responders at last year’s Pulse nightclub shooting have to “get tested for AIDS-related conditions” because of the blood of gay victims.

They have also claimed the United States might be destroyed unless you give them money.

Mr Staver wrote: “We have exposed the dangerous lies of the Obama agenda, especially as it has impacted life, faith, and family. This work has been vital in keeping the flame of liberty burning in our land!

“We are entering the most important season of all in this battle for the very heart and soul of our nation and the rights of people of faith to stand in our culture.

“In the coming months, we could witness a rollback of President Obama’s radical initiatives OR a decisive defeat of life, family, and religious liberties.

“If we fail to reverse course and restore liberty, our nation will not long survive!”
