We should all be weeping
And remember, 93% have no record of any violent crimes. This facility, then, is comparable to the internment camps for Japanese Americans during the Second World War. But let's call it what it is: a concentration camp. Jesus wept.

In its simplest terms, the apparent demise of #USAID is the result of the world's richest man ending a program that helps millions of poor people. You don't need a Ph.D. in moral theology to see why this is an evil. You can just read Jesus's parables on the rich and the poor.

Generally speaking, slashing government funding for Christian organizations like Catholic Relief Services, attacking Lutheran charities, and maligning the US Conference of Catholic Bishops isn't especially pro-Christian.

When you give guns to teens… and free insurrectionists… and dismantle the White House Office of Gun Violence Prevention… and try to freeze federal grants for violence intervention…
Don’t tell us you’re going after immigrants for our safety. It’s BS.
It’s just racism.

The Catholic tradition holds clearly that how we treat migrants is how we treat Christ as explained by Erga Migrantes Caritas Christi (issued under JP2)
Inhumane treatment of migrants and refugees would be like someone spitting on the Eucharist or insulting the Blessed mother.
