Two big topics today – first, what’s the White House’s word worth these days? There’s been any array of conflicting statements from the White House over the firing of FBI director James Comey. President Trump tweeted that his surrogates can’t speak for him perfectly, but what does it takes to put out a credible White House narrative? We’ll ask former White House communications staff from the political left and right, and talk to journalists from Politico and CNBC. Then, we’ll shift gears to the changing relationship between evangelical Christians and the LGBT community. These days, more churches accept LGBT people as full members or, at least, they ease up on the condemnation. But do they still consider being gay a sin? You’ll meet evangelicals navigating LGBT rights and inclusion.
