The sense of entitlement we are seeing from domestic and foreign welfare recipients is really beginning to piss me off.

As rich as the Catholic Church is, why is it getting any Federal funding? In the small town....35K population.. where I raised my family, the Church had / has 3 bishops, 2 retired & 1 still in office. Each Bishop had / has his own residence, with a staff serving him. And none of those houses were under $400K. The Church is the largest property owner in the country.

That’s the episcopal conference in reality.

Gays and trannies.

Not conservative Catholics.


Bingo. Far-Left Whackos to be more exact. They are Politics FIRST and GOD way down somewhere lower.

They and the ELCA Lutheran's are in the same boat. Political Clubs, not Churches.

The refugee bureau has committed “around $65 million in federal funding”

That’s chump change to the Vatican, one, maybe two, statues from an inventory of thousands, never mind the daily tourist receipts to get a tour of the place.

U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops is a racketeer influenced corrupt organization.

The Trump Justice Dept. should pursue a RICO action against the USCCB for conspiracy to violate US immigration laws, human trafficking, and fraud and also conspiring to protect pedophiles.

The idea that someone else thinks they have a right to your money, vote is seemingly more and more natural among those self serving people and groups.

If the Catholic Church is going to be saved it will be by the Third World.

You have to remember it's not the church and the teachings.

These people are not refugees. They're here illegally.

If they can prove that they are not helping illegals then they "may" have an argument.

That Catholic Church has hundreds of billions if not trillions of dollars and assets at their disposal. They do not need one damn dime of American tax payers money to fund anything, anywhere on the planet.

If it's that important to them why don't they sell off some of the many properties they own?

By the way, at last count, there have been 74 lawsuits filed against the Trump administration (in less than a month). I'm sure this is normal.
