Cardinal Cupich claims Church backing for all migrantsCupich claims Church backing for all migrants Chicago’s Cardinal Blase Cupich has once again courted controversy by weighing in on the immigration controversy and giving the Catholic Church’s full backing to migrants. In a video message posted online October 21, Cupich voiced his stance regarding the current topic of immigration, an issue which has dominated headlines in the nation for months. The Chicago cardinal said he spoke both as a “shepherd,” but also “as a fellow pilgrim who shares the pain of many of our immigrant communities.” He took aim at the actions...

Nigel Farage has likened masked Muslim protesters marching through the streets of east London to a 'foreign invading army'. The Reform UK leader today condemned the scenes of balaclava-clad men who declared they were 'uniting' while chanting a series of messages in Arabic. He revealed that Saturday's Tower Hamlets demonstration - which came after police banned a planned UKIP protest to 'reclaim' the area - was 'one of the most terrifying things I've ever seen in my life'. Many young men dressed in black, with hoods up and their faces covered, roamed the streets waving Bangladesh and Palestine flags where...

HOAX ALERT: Erin Burnett provides air cover for a “volunteer” ICE stalker, Leo Martinez, who is part of large network of people in Ventura County, CA who surveil and harass federal agents. This individual knows exactly what he’s doing. He follows around ICE agents while gangs like Latin Kings are ramming ICE vehicles and launching violent attacks against them, and while Cartels put bounties on agents' heads. Stalkers like Martinez know ICE is on high alert and are intentionally provoking these types of encounters so he can run to CNN and play the victim. Martinez even ADMITS that legal counsel...

No, Catholics don’t have to be pro-mass migration: Cardinal Müller was right to refute Pope LeoWhen I studied at university in Durham, there was a visiting Dominican friar finishing his PhD. The more traditionally inclined among the Catholics who studied in that ancient cathedral city had a habit of turning to him for counsel on manifold matters. One such piece of mentorship this affable, stolid, clear-thinking and orthodox priest gave me has rung in my ears and remained relevant ever since.His words may be invaluable to Catholics in the wake of Pope Leo XIV’s enthusiastic emphasis on welcoming migrants –...

[Catholic Caucus] When “Welcome” Collides With Caesar: Dilexi Te and the Missing QuestionInvoking historical precedents from a different time and legal order to justify mass illegal immigration in the present stretches analogy beyond reason.The Apostolic Exhortation Dilexi Te limits its discussion of “migrants” to three paragraphs: 73–75. Paragraph 73 claims that “The experience of migration accompanies the history of the People of God,” citing Abraham, Moses, and the Flight into Egypt. Paragraph 74 focuses on two 19th-century Church figures involved in the care of migrants in the Americas: St. Frances Xavier Cabrini and Bishop Giovanni Battista Scalabrini. Paragraph 75 cites...

The conflict in Gaza has fuelled a near-tenfold increase in Palestinians making illegal Channel crossings to the UK, which could now be reversed by Donald Trump’s peace deal. Without any safe legal routes from Gaza to Britain, even to join family, Palestinians fleeing the Israel-Hamas conflict have opted for the perilous small boat journey. While 38 crossed in the year to June 2024, in the subsequent 12 months there were 324. Over the same period, the number of Palestinians claiming asylum in the UK more than doubled, from 327 in the year ending June 2024, to 841 in the year...

Brick by brick, President Donald Trump is building a wall around the world’s largest economy. As America’s tariff barriers on everyone else have gone up, so has the drawbridge, making it harder for migrants to enter the country. The president wants to turn America into a fortress that keeps out foreign incursions. In fact, he is cutting America off from the very goods and talent that helped make its economy the envy of the world. Already the damage is starting to show; once wreaked, it will not easily be reversed. That is not how investors see it. In the six...

Trump is not only scapegoating our city; he is plotting to make the neighborhoods of working families, immigrants and communities of color the staging grounds for authoritarian force.While many families prepared their children for school Monday morning, Sept. 29, I woke up to calls from parents in Chicago too afraid to leave their homes. Rumors of immigration enforcement were spreading, and the simple act of walking a child to school felt like too much of a risk. I am a mother and an Illinois state representative, and these calls hit me in two places at once: as a parent who...

The Supreme Court on Friday gave the Trump administration the go-ahead to scrap temporary deportation protections for more than 300,000 Venezuelan migrants. In their latest emergency order, the justices on the high court paused Obama-appointed District Judge Edward Chen’s September ruling that the Trump administration wrongly terminated an 18-month extension of temporary protected status (TPS) for migrants from Venezuela. Liberal justices Sonia Sotomayor, Elena Kagan and Ketanji Brown Jackson opposed the majority in the unsigned order.

[Catholic Caucus] The Death of Europe | Will Leo XIV visit Lampedusa? A Grave Mistake -- and the Lampedusans themselves would not be happyery few things made European Catholics more unhappy with Francis than his tone-deaf approach to the criminal enterprise bringing millions of illegal migrants to Europe, and deeply changing the demographics, religion, and criminality of vast areas of the Continent.And the main early symbol of that attitude was Francis' visit to one of the most popular destinations used by the people-smuggling gangs: the small island of Lampedusa, in Sicily. Lampedusa was, for instance, the first spot in Europe...

Chicago aldermen are once again warning downtown residents and workers to be prepared for potential chaos ahead of this weekend’s Mexican Independence Day, a holiday that has increasingly turned into an unsanctioned takeover of the Loop and surrounding areas by car caravans. The warnings come as city officials brace for another year of traffic jams, fireworks, and noisy celebrations that have tested police and exasperated locals. CPD arrested 69 people during last year’s four-day weekend, including at least 19 for illegal gun possession. Aldermen Brian Hopkins (2nd) and Brendan Reilly (42nd), who represent much of the downtown area, have issued...

Britain’s first female Muslim Home Secretary Shabana Mahmood had a rough start on Saturday, with over 1,000 illegal migrants arriving after crossing the English Channel from France on her first day in office. Mahmood, a former pro-Palestinian activist whose Pakistani parents migrated to England from Mirpur in the disputed Kashmir region, was tasked by Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer on Friday to run the Home Office, the cabinet department tasked with controlling immigration and protecting Britain’s borders. It came amid the forced Downing Street reshuffle sparked by the scandal-induced resignation of former Deputy PM Angela Rayner over the socialist politician’s...

The Labour Government is set to close down migrant hotels and house residents in former military barracks in a fresh bid to take control of the small boats crisis. The new policy, which will see the closure of dozens of asylum hotels, will be announced within days by Home Secretary Shabana Mahmood, The Telegraph reports. Keir Starmer has faced criticism in recent weeks over his immigration policies after new official figures showed asylum seeker claims hitting a record high, with more migrants being housed in hotels compared with a year ago. The plan to move migrants into military accommodation comes...
