The U.S. Catholic bishops have lawyered up.
And they're out to claw back "their" money -- at last count $65 million in taxpayer cash -- which they use to advance the entry of millions of illegal migrants into the U.S. and leave the taxpayers with the bill for their permanent upkeep.
According to Catholic News Agency:
The U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops (USCCB) is suing the Trump administration over what the bishops say is an unlawful suspension of funding for refugee programs in the United States.
Upon taking office last month, President Donald Trump issued sweeping executive orders that, among other measures, directed a freeze on foreign assistance funds and grants, with the White House seeking to uproot left-wing initiatives in federally funded programs.
The orders have led to a flurry of legal challenges from advocates and nonprofit groups arguing that the funding freeze is unlawful. Other groups such as Catholic Charities have urged the Trump administration to reconsider the freeze, citing the “crucial care” the funding helps provide.
"Crucial care"? Are they talking about the transport flights to ferry in so-called 'asylum-seekers' into the country on chartered jets at no cost to them; people who might not have even thought to enter the U.S. without authorization as "asylum seekers" with residence privileges in the U.S. had this taxi service had not been provided them, courtesy of Catholic Charities?
Or the free legal advice, which teaches illegal migrants how to clam up for immigration authorities in order to get away with their illegal entries?

Nice tax-free scam you got there for your human trafficking business, Rev.
Be a real shame to have to start paying taxes.....
Bent out of shape because the gravy train has stopped.
The Catholic church can pay for those services with its own money.
Catholic church coming out of its hole. Charitable??? The church does everything for something.
I’ve been irate over the Catholic’s scam for years. To Hell with them!
Let Pope Marx pay them....
This is where they got the money to pay for all the child sex settlements they’ve had to pay out since the late ‘80s.
Unfortunately, there are a lot of churches that are no longer churches.
They are money grubbing organizations……send all the immigrants to the vatican and they can spend their vatican gold reserves on them. Likewise with the Lutherans and others. We all know what happened when Jesus saw money being exchanged in the temple.
Totally agree!!!!
As a Catholic I AGREE!!!!!
Nothing but a bunch of greedy bastards.
Yeah. And they have standing?
They need more Bingo and Fish Frys. We shouldn’t have to pay for their “illegal” habit. They wanted the illegals here, they can pay for them.
The Catholic Church is one of the most wealthy organizations in the world. More than many national governments. They can pay it themselves. Since they allowed Satan’s disciple, Frankie, run the place Ive lost all idea of support. A concerted effort by national governments to jail every pedophile priest and also every official who covered the abuse up should be implemented. Mo mercy should be shown to perps and those who protected the monsters.
It’s actually the only tactic that might work for the leftists, letting activist judges hinder or stop the Trump administration.
The pope is a Marxist first and a Catholic a distant second. The USCCB is a bunch of money grubbing leftists who apparently want to destroy the USA by importing millions of third world parasites who have no idea of freedom, limited government and don’t want to understand our culture, don’t want to assimilate, but do want to suck up welfare. Oh and be counted on to vote Democrat forever. The best thing to happen would be for Catholic “Charities” to never get another cent of taxpayer money.

Let’s make that the ELCA “Lutherans” . . .
The bishops are wrong, and they are going to lose.
Where I work, there is a Catholic “Farmworker Ministry “ center for the illegals. i went in one time and there was a photo of the leader, a butchy short haired heavyset lesbo nun on the wall, and a mural of Caesar Chavez and martin Luther the king. There were brand new baby carriages and gift packages lined up in a row, and signs that said- blah blah immigraccion and “Votar” - I noticed last week, they were dressing up the mexicans in graduation robes with signs that said- we are dreamers - don’t take away our dreams of an education so I guess they are pissed about having their gravy train taken away.
