Klein is a liberal opinion journalist, but he is also ethically bound to maintain his independence. Not sure how this is any different from making a political donation or putting a candidate's sign on his lawn. I'll be interested to hear if his employer has anything to say about this.

I don't know what Trump and the GOP are claiming to celebrate today, but I know for certain it's not the life and teachings of a man who was illegally arrested and executed by the State on false charges because authorities feared his existence. Wishing you all a peaceful and reflective Good Friday.

I’m going to say something that shouldn’t be controversial but will be. If you are a Christian, you can support border control and immigration being legal vs illegal. You CANNOT celebrate deportations and get off on the cruelty, and be a real Christ follower. Period
