I can’t believe we’re back to medieval level conflicts like “local authorities deny catholic prisoners the Eucharist, bishop arrives, Papal sanction may follow”
Chicago Auxiliary Bishop José María Garcia-Maldonado at ICE detention facility: “Being here is an act of holiness…soon we will seek access to the facility to bring the Eucharist to our brothers and sisters; if they say no again, we will keep praying.”

What's happening to America right now, and the pace it's happening, is all bound up in this odd "well, I guess I have not choice but to go along and support it because this guy won a popularity contest" notion of political obligation too many people suffer from.

IMHO this is law enforcement and a violation of Posse Comitatus, full stop, no matter whether they carry out arrests or not.
And here you go. I honestly do not understand the moral cowardice that leads some of our fellow citizens to not speak out against what's going on.

The military isn’t being employed to carry out an immigration policy.
The immigration policy, and especially the way the administration is choosing to carry it out, is an excuse to call out the military.
