Cardinal Timothy Dolan slammed Kamala Harris' surprise move to skip the annual Al Smith dinner, while sending a warning about the last candidate who sat it out.
The dinner benefitting Catholic Charities traditionally has been used to promote collegiality and good humor, with presidential candidates from both parties appearing on the same night and trading barbs.
Donald Trump has attended the dinner in both 2016 and 2020, while Hillary Clinton and Joe Biden - albeit online - also attended when running for president.
Dolan, the Archbishop of New York City, said he was 'disappointed' in Harris' decision to instead campaign in a battleground state less than three weeks before Election Day.
'We were looking forward to giving the vice president an enthusiastic welcome, and we were confident that she would find this – you know, she speaks very much about high ideals and how it's good to get away from division and come together in unity and all,' he said.
He then made a troubling historical point about the last time a Democrat told them no.
'We’re not used to this. We don’t know how to handle it. This hasn’t happened in 40 years, since Walter Mondale turned down the invitation. And remember, he lost 49 out of 50 states. I don't want to say there's a direct connection there, but … we're not giving up,' Dolan said.
The cardinal, who plays a prominent role in the dinner, has been highly critical of Democrats, writing a 2018 Wall Street Journal op-ed that carried the headline, 'The Democrats Abandon Catholics.'
Harris' team wants her to spend as much time as possible in the battleground states that will decide the election rather than heavily Democratic New York, a campaign official said Saturday, speaking on condition of anonymity to discuss campaign plans...

Troubling to who?
Not me.
From what I’ve read, Trump actually won california in ‘20..
I don’t know how true that is, but I wouldn’t doubt it..
Good hot take, I-F!
“From what I’ve read, Trump actually won california in ‘20..”
My family lives in western NYS and my brother, who’s on top of elections, said that Trump was winning before the convenient 10 pm shutdown of returns reporting. When it was back online, miraculously everything reversed.
Note well: Congress allocated $90 million tax dollars to the US Postal Service to compensate them for services rendered to voters living abeoad.
Citizens living overseas, including members of the armed forces, are allowed by law to vote absentee in elections. In Montana, a functioning absentee system allows them to vote starting 45 days until Election Day.
Democrat voter fraud is in high gear.......globally.
Backstory: Pres Reagan signed into law the 1986 Uniformed
and Overseas Citizens Absentee Voting Act (UOCAVA):
<><>to protect a time-honored tradition of overseas voting
<><>to enhance US citizens abroad and U.S. military members’ right to vote
<><>yet, federal law doesn’t provide clear, commonsense rules
<><>for how overseas voters register to vote
<><>or how their votes are compiled and counted.
<><>ergo, states can make their own laws — even bad ones.
But this past August, we learned that Democrats have gone global, committing $300,000 to register and influence 9 million overseas voters — even though the federal government says only 2.4 million legal voters live in other countries. That’s 6.4 million votes that Democrats want to find...that don’t exist. The group financing the efforts——Democrats Abroad—— told CBS News that the ballots are “likely to favor Kamala Harris.”

Democrats have devised an undetectable plan to steal 2024

Democrats have devised a “brilliant plan” to steal our election in 2024—and it’s really quite simple.
They believe the key to winning is getting “9 million individuals to vote for Kamala Harris” from a (cough) pool of 2.4 million eligible overseas voters———latter number of eligible overseas voters are verified according to US government data.
Democrats essentially remove the shock value when it’s announced they only achieved “a percentage” of their goal and reveal they received “millions of new overseas votes.”

This reveals the significance of the overseas votes to Democrats.
In 2020, 18,475 UOCAVA ballots were received in Georgia, a state where Trump allegedly lost by 11,779 votes. Poll workers in other states reported similarly remarkable irregularities:
In Fulton County, GA, a hand recount of 950 UOCAVA ballots had zero votes for Trump—a curious 100% tally for Joe Biden.
A poll worker in a Louisiana County reported that 80% of the UOCAVA ballots were for Biden.
In Cobb County, GA, a poll observer challenged the authenticity of the UOCAVA ballots when she realized that 80 to 90% were votes for Biden.
A judge of elections in Colorado observed the tabulation of UOCAVA ballots and was alarmed that nearly 95% of the ballots were votes for Biden.
In the City of Richmond, VA, a poll worker reported that a hand-tally of approximately one thousand ballots showed 85-90% Biden.
These are just four examples of shocking asymmetries in party preference. Verity Vote submitted multiple FOIA requests to counties across the country requesting records of the UO—CAVA ballot tabulation.
Most counties do not keep records of the results for this category of ballots. The accommodations necessary to ensure that uniformed service members are fully able to participate in elections should not be the same as the accommodations offered to every non-military requester.
They would like us to believe that enthusiasm for Harris
<><>a presidential candidate who never received a single vote from Democrats
<><>who had to drop out of the 2020 Presidential Primary race
<><>she polled at the bottom of the large pack of candidates,
<><>and is somehow creating “unprecedented” enthusiasm amongst 2024 overseas voters.
.
Literally, no one here is coming out of the woodwork now to vote for Kamala Harris,
<><>but we are to believe that overseas voters are “coming out of the woodwork” to vote for her
<><>they tell us she makes overseas voters “so happy!”
He was leading in several swing states before the 10 p.m. shutdown..
This Guy has always thought DJT took New Jersey in ‘20.
But for the slithering, expanding (accordion-like after the polls closed, depending on the developing hard vote count for Trump), and intimidating, margin of fraud.
The Cardinal is an idiot
Gathering ballots outside the jurisdiction of the United States; yeah, I’m sure that process will be entirely above board. And if you question the legitimacy of these overseas “votes” you’ll be labeled a “racist” and told to shut up or be arrested.
Anyone still think we can repel the growing leftist tyranny by debating and voting?
I pray she breaks that record and loses 50 out of the 50 States...or is it 57 out of 57 States?
Dolan is Dem poodle. F him and his wet back smuggling catholic charities.
.......if we dare question the legitimacy of these overseas “votes”
we’ll be labeled “racists” and Hillary will want to arrest us..........
Hang on. This dinner benefits Catholic “Charities”? Or Catholic “charities”?
Because if it feeds funds or upholds or lionizes or shows approval for Catholic “Charities” then I wouldn’t go either.
Most of us here should know “Charities” is one of the biggest scam groups who brings in a huge amount of illegals to resettle in our communities, and they get boatloads of our tax-payed cash for doing so.
So.
Can you visualize Kamala cheerfully accepting being mocked in public?
Neither can I.
I’m Catholic.
Jesus did say thing like forgive 7 times 70, sell all you own, it’s harder for a rich man to get to Heaven than..., if you get slapped turn the other cheek.
And I think that’s where well meaning morons get the idea that they have to “help and save” all these people.
Jesus also said Give to Caesar’s what is Caesar’s...a secure border is central to the safety and existence of a country.
Jesus also would have kinda frowned on the whole abortion thing and transgender thing that ARE dems’ religion.
NO Catholic should be voting D and it should be stated at every church.
But I’m happy we’re majority for R in recent elections ....but I hope for more this time.

‘Are you better off now than four years ago?’ MONDALE and KAMALA both have that in common.
