Full title - Nancy Pelosi Joins Catholic ‘Nuns On The Bus’ For ‘Tax Justice Truth Tour’ En Route To Trump’s Mar-a-Lago

LOS ANGELES (CBSLA) — Catholic nuns have joined forces with leading figures of the Democratic Party to call out what they see as the GOP’s abdication of their duty to the American people.

“Nuns on the Bus” kicked off their “Tax Justice Truth Tour” in Ocean View Park in Santa Monica Monday, with House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi as a keynote speaker. The group of 30 nuns has planned to host 54 events in 21 states across the country over the next 27 days, with its final stop, the “Fiesta for Common Good,” slated to be held outside President Donald Trump’s Mar-a-Lago resort in Palm Beach, Florida.

A crowd gathered at the park Monday to support the nuns, who said they are speaking truth to power by criticizing the Republicans’ recent tax plan.

“I’m here to support the nuns because they actually started with the health care debate,” said Santa Monica resident Crol Nidorf, who was carrying a bright sign reading, “This is not who we are.”

The same libs who smugly proclaim G-D is dead and Jesus is an imaginary friend who’s Father is an “invisible non-existent sky daddy”. But when it fits their agenda, THEN G-D is real and Jesus is a cool dude. To them Jesus is whoever they want him to be at the moment.

Catholic here.

I’m glad the nuns don’t let that silly leading platform for dems, making getting an abortion easier than ordering a mother ####ing hamburger, stop them :)

those brides of Jesus

More like ####s from hell.

They forgot to read the bible.

“Therefore render to Caesar the things that are Caesar’s, and to God the things that are God’s”

Nuns should only concern themselves with the second one. THAT would include stopping abortion.

I wonder if any of the 54 events will be at planned parenthood abortion mills.

If these nuns are traveling with nancy pelosi they accept abortion.

So Pelosi is gong to tour the country with a bus,pad of radical leftist nuns to advertise how she is going to raise taxes?

Does she have to report this in-kind contribution to the NRCC?

I remember a Catholic Church that told me to value life, giving, spirtual issues and that material issues were pretty low on the list. It seems like the church cares more .about the physical and not the spiritual anymore.

It sounds the the St Josephs Workers. A bunch of social justice warriors pretending to be of the church.

I’m a Lutheran but I don’t even recognize my own religion anymore and I certainly can’t understand the Catholics these days.
