Linda McLaughlin condemns Pope Francis and the Catholic hierarchy for alleged political corruption, citing $290 million in 2023 federal funds funneled by Catholic Charities to support Democrats and illegal immigration. She argues this strategy allows organizations to bypass bankruptcy claims regarding sex abuse allegations while attorneys advise undocumented immigrants to resist ICE enforcement. McLaughlin asserts that bishops are removed for doctrinal stances only to recant when politically inconvenient, concluding that the church prioritizes alliances with figures like Joe Biden over traditional teachings, urging Catholics to reject these leaders for using religion as a cover for financial gain and political maneuvering.

Mass Immigrants and Catholic Church00:15:17
This is an iHeart podcast.
Guaranteed human.
Welcome to the Rogue Recap.
Hot takes, cold facts, and zero respect for the official narrative.
Sit back, roll your eyes, and let's recap.
Rogue style.
What's up, everybody?
And welcome to the Rogue Recap.
I am Linda McLaughlin, and I am really pissed off tonight, I have to tell you.
And it's a sad thing that I'm going to tell you I'm upset about.
It's the church, it's the Catholic church.
And I'm a Catholic, so it's awkward, right?
Because I have to be able to admit that my people are crazy confused in the leadership roles of the Catholic Church, whether we're talking about the Pope or we're talking about the bishops or the cardinals or all these other people who wear big funny hats and think that they're more important than the rest of us peons who go to church every day.
But I can tell you, firsthand, growing up Catholic and then sort of finding my way into the Christian church, non denominational Christian church, which I also truly love.
And then finding my way back to the Catholic Church.
And a big part of that is, you know, myself and my family, we love the Catholic Mass.
There's something just really beautiful about the Mass, the severity of the Mass, the fact that we are there to celebrate and worship our Lord and Savior, and all of the stories that come from the Bible about what he did for us, what he suffered for us, what he gave for us, but also how much more work there is to do.
Which I guess if you just turn on the news or open your door, you could see that every single day.
But recently, I would say, like in the past decade or so, there has been a real awakening of just how bad the Catholic Church is when it comes to what I would call the corporate arm of the Catholic Church.
And so, this, you know, NGO, Catholic Charities, is this operation that really doesn't have a whole lot to do with the Catholic Church.
Except that it's funneling a shit ton of money to it, and it's doing so on the backs of refugees and illegal aliens that are coming into the country.
And they tend to work with Democrats, which I find very interesting.
And when you think about leading Democrats in the party like Biden and Pelosi, who claimed to be Catholic, but while they say they live by the Catholic doctrine, they support LGBTQ and trans and child mutilation and open borders, which furthers the power to the cartels because these coyotes that get these kids and these women, and there's the rape trees and the constant human and sex trafficking that goes along with.
All that is open borders, all the uncomfortable, disgusting things that are happening when we think we're just going to church, right?
And we are giving our stipend to the church and we're saying, here's all that I have to give to you.
And then they take that money and they put it towards things that we don't actually want our money going to, right?
Like, I'm a conservative.
I actually don't want to fund refugees and people that are seeking asylum that probably aren't refugees and don't need asylum.
Or people that are illegal immigrants that came here through trafficking that really probably want to go back home.
I always think of Tara Rodas, who worked in the Child Recovery Department of the Department of Homeland Security, and she gave testimony before Congress.
I'm not quoting this exactly, I'm paraphrasing, but in this incredible testimony that she gave to the House, she explained that they had set up a hotline for kids that had been illegally trafficked here, and there were Tens of thousands of messages of these kids begging to go home.
So while the Obama and the Bidens and the Kamala's and the Jens Sakis and the Corrine Jean Pierre's want you to think that we're horrible for exposing all of this, what we're really trying to do is get kids back to their families.
Because what happens is these cartels, they're selling these children, whether it's for human trafficking, to be slaves and work in factories and meatpacking plants, or to be sold into sex trafficking.
I mean, these kids are little.
I mean, we all remember when we saw the two and the three year olds come across the borders with little notes that were pinned to their jackets.
I'm like, what is going on?
You think about how we're supposed to treasure our elderly and our babies, and we just don't do that.
And unfortunately, the United States of America is the biggest customer of the sex trafficking and the human trafficking industry.
There are the amount of depravity that we are talking about is something that makes most people very squeamish.
And they've done studies on this where if you air a segment and it's about rape or it's about sex trafficking, especially with children or bestiality, people will turn the channel.
They can't stomach it.
But the problem is, it's happening every day, all day, every minute, on the minute, because people are sick.
And they literally drug these children and they rape them to the point some of them die from the pain and the agony.
Some of them go on to escape, but can never have children.
They're emotionally and physically scarred for the rest of their lives.
But you have these NGOs that are lying and pleading as though they're doing the right thing.
And so they claim that Donald Trump is the enemy, whether he's going in to save the Persians from the 47 year persecution of the Ayatollah, or he's going and saying, let's close the borders so that the coyotes and the cartels can't make money off anymore, stealing kids from literally the front porches of their homes and telling their families, if you come after us, we'll kill them.
This is so beyond anything that the average American, the average person is thinking about on any given day.
So when Pope Leo comes out and everybody's so excited, right?
Because he's the Pope and he's the first American Pope, and the Bible teaches us that we shouldn't push for war.
Nobody's pushing for war, Leo, okay?
Nobody's pushing for war.
We have an Ayatollah who was after a nuclear weapon, we have an entire IRGC.
That is under the helm of a regime that cares about one thing, exterminating everything that is not radical Islam.
Now, I don't know why you think they would favor you when it comes time for us to all meet our maker, because I promise you, they have no interest in the infidel.
And that's what you are, Leo.
Just so you know, you can be friends with the Democrats and you can be friends with the Islamic clerics, but I'm telling you right now, when push comes to shove, you're getting pushed off the ledge.
Just like every other Jewish person and every other Christian person, anybody else that they consider to be an infidel.
Okay?
When you have no more use to them, you're out of here.
So I don't know why you think you need to make an enemy of the United States Conservative Party and the president.
Because the president is trying to do one thing.
He is trying to become the shining light on a hill.
He is trying to become the place that when people say, I need freedom, I need to escape, I need to be somewhere where I feel safe and I can be all the things I want to be.
That's America.
See, the issue is the left is always the party of control and indoctrination and Marxism and socialism.
And they hate all that is freedom, all that is quote unquote normal, all that is quote unquote capitalism.
The very things that are the engine that make our nation are the things that drive you, Leo, and your cardinals and your bishops up a wall.
Because what's going to happen is we're going to expose all of you for the frauds that you are.
Because the Catholic Church, when it comes to the Vatican, has a wall all around it, armed guards, security.
I would like to see you and all of your bishops and all of your cardinals with your higher than thou sitting on a perch recommendations for the United States and the rest of the world to love one another.
And, you know, let everybody in.
Let the refugees in.
Let everyone who is seeking asylum in.
Why don't we start with you?
Lead by example.
Why don't you do that?
Huh, Leo?
Are you too busy out there spouting your bullshit?
Is that the problem?
And people want to get upset because they're like, oh, he's the Pope.
You can't talk like that.
He's just a man.
There is only one king, and he is in heaven.
That's it.
I don't need to bow to anybody else.
I am reverent to the church, but I am not reverent to those who seek to abuse the powers of the church for their own political gain.
And that is exactly what's been happening at the Vatican for far too long.
And unfortunately, people think that that's you bashing the religion.
I'm not bashing the religion, I'm not at all.
I'm a practicing Catholic.
I'm on my knees in church on Sunday, just like everybody else.
Bowing and listening to the gospel, asking for God's forgiveness because I am a sinner.
The problem is that Leo and all of the other cardinals and bishops have forgotten that they are sinners too, and probably the worst kind, because they are the types of sinners that say it's good for thee and not me.
They are the types of sinners that are meeting with the Axelrods, the former chief of staff for Obama, having closed door meetings, and then suddenly after that meeting, coming out and having something to say about the Trump administration.
Don't you have enough things to do, Leo?
Don't you have some work to do?
Italy doesn't seem to be doing so hot.
I realize you're the Pope and you're supposed to be for all of us, but you know, maybe start at home.
And again, I look forward to seeing you open your doors, tearing down the walls, allowing all of the migrants that come to the shores of Italy to enter into the Vatican.
I have no question that you guys will get along just great.
I hope that you have plenty of video going because the amount Of disgusting debauchery that you are about to see is going to be something out of the deepest, darkest recesses of your mind.
Because the people coming to those shores and raping and pillaging these small little towns are not here for assimilation.
They're not here to blend.
They have no interest in becoming a part of a free and Western society.
They're here to take over.
And if you listen, they're already telling you that.
But I digress.
So these three Cardinals, they go on CBS and they have this interview on 60 Minutes with Noura O'Donnell, who we know is a raging liberal.
And they decide that they're going to bash Trump.
And they're upset, right?
Because they're mad about Iran.
They're mad about the immigrants.
But Cardinal McElroy, he leads the pack.
We've got two clips of him.
We've got the one from just this past weekend.
And then we've got an older clip of him talking about immigrants.
This is the first one from this weekend.
Take a listen.
Colonel McEvoy, we are speaking in a church here in Washington, D.C., that serves a largely immigrant population.
The pastor asked us not to share or publicize this parish name or location.
What's he worried about?
He's worried for his people.
They live under fear, and thus our mass count within the Spanish masses in our archdiocese went down 30% from the year before.
30%.
That's a lot.
And it's all fear.
Before he became Archbishop of Washington, Cardinal Robert McElroy served as the Bishop of San Diego, one of the busiest stretches of the southern border for illegal crossings.
I feel it got to a point where it was getting out of control.
Under Biden?
Under Biden, yes.
You believe in strong borders.
Yes.
So what's wrong then with the current policy?
This is a roundup of people throughout the country, people who have been living good.
The strong line has been here a long time, raised their children here, men, their children born here, and our citizens.
That's what our objection is.
But this was discussed during the campaign, it was widely discussed, and yet President Trump won the Catholic vote over Kamala Harris handily 55 to 43 percent.
He promised to secure the border, he talked about deportation, and a majority of Catholics voted for the policy.
I would like to know what Catholics feel about this indiscriminate mass deportation.
I think that it's very clear the American people are saying, we really didn't vote for this.
I don't know what American people he's talking about.
It's exactly what I voted for.
I don't want mass illegal immigrants in my hospitals, flooding the emergency rooms, taking up space in public classrooms where children who are English speaking have to wait because there's a bunch of kids in there who had no choice in being there who don't speak English, bringing in diseases because their countries don't vaccinate for them.
Don't we all remember we weren't allowed to go anywhere unless we were vaccinated?
Suddenly that didn't matter for illegal immigrants.
How dare he say that their parish went down 30%?
So what?
Maybe you should reach out to the community that aren't Spanish speaking.
That's what you're worried about?
You're worried about your Spanish speaking masses?
What are you speaking Spanish for in your church anyway?
We're in America.
The language here in America is English, just so you know.
See, this is the problem.
They are placating to something that has absolutely nothing to do with the church.
It has to do with who they are in bed with.
And I use that term, obviously, figure of speech.
This is not something that has to do with them being upset or worried about these refugees or these illegal aliens.
If you believe in the good book and you believe in people doing the right thing, well, the right thing when you come to another country is to enter with a visa or to be a citizen.
Or to have working papers or to have some sort of documentation that says you're allowed to be there.
That's the process.
Sorry if you don't like it, that's still what it is.
And so it's interesting to see how upset they are and saying something like how Americans feel about mass deportations.
Yeah, I'm all in, bro.
Absolutely.
I think we've probably got about 40 million illegal aliens here.
And for him to say, this is the interesting thing, he's talking to her and he's saying, they're citizens.
Bringing Sense to Terror Deportations00:02:13
No, they're not citizens.
That's the whole point, McElroy.
That is the whole point.
You missed it.
They're here illegally.
If they weren't here illegally, we wouldn't be having these problems.
That's where the crux of the issue comes.
You want to skate over that because you're getting money on the back end.
And while you sit there all pompous with your giant cross, don't think that we're not seeing right through it.
Wearing the outfit doesn't mean that that's who you are on the inside.
We all know that you're after one thing.
So, this is a clip of McElroy's.
I think it's about a year old, also talking about deportations.
This is him by himself.
This is simply not only incompatible with Catholic teaching, it's inhumane and it's morally repugnant.
Some people say that those being deported have got criminal convictions and therefore it's legitimate to do this.
What do you say?
The government has a right to deport people who have been convicted of serious crimes, especially violent crimes.
And for that, I don't think Americans would have objections at all, and I certainly wouldn't.
But this is not that.
This is simply an effort to try to bring really a sense of terror to those who are undocumented.
No one is trying to bring a sense of terror to those who are undocumented.
That is absolutely false.
What we are trying to do is ask them to please enter the country legally, please get out.
Figure it out and come on back.
They're even offering you money so that when you leave and you come back, they can help you do it in a better way.
That's where we're really at.
And see, that's the problem.
They don't like that we're trying to figure out the bottom line.
We're trying to figure out what's actually happening.
That's not what they want.
They want us all to be mad.
They want to divide us.
They want us to feel confused and we are wrong and we are not understanding the work of God.
Joe Biden's Huge Favor to Church00:07:23
Well, I have a different idea.
I think that all of these bishops and all these cardinals are actually.
Getting paid.
And I think they're getting paid handsomely.
So, our friend Eric Eggers, who we do a weekly show with here called Soundbites, he has another show with New York Times bestselling author Peter Schweitzer, and they do incredible research at the Government Accountability Institute.
And one of the things that they looked into was NGOs, specifically those bringing in illegal aliens.
And one of the worst purveyors, the biggest payouts, was Catholic Charities.
Take a listen to this synopsis.
This is.
This is telling.
Joe Biden meets with Pope Francis in 2021.
Guess what else happens in 2021?
Catholic Charities USA, which is the nonprofit arm of the Catholic Church, they get selected to serve as the leader for multiple states by Joe Biden's Department of Health and Human Services Office of Refugee Resettlement.
So, this is a new designation the Catholic Church gets.
They get a significant amount of money, like a lot.
So, you can go and pull up these 990s for they have, they're broken down into different states, right?
2021.
The Dallas chapter of Catholic Charities USA gets $43 million.
In 2022, they get $140 million.
In 2023, $290 million.
The Houston chapter of Catholic Charities USA, same deal.
In 2020, they get $44 million.
By 2022, $216 million.
Catholic Charities USA, San Diego chapter, reporting $11 million in revenue on their 990.
By 2023, $70 million.
And what's interesting about that is in 2024, the Roman Catholic Bishop of San Diego filed Chapter 11.
Bankruptcy because they had to pay out claims for 457 allegations of sex abuse by these priests.
So, okay, so the San Diego chapter of Catholic Charities USA is getting a ton of money while the Catholic Church itself in San Diego is filing bankruptcy.
It's a huge deal.
And here's why Joe Biden gave the Catholic Church huge favor here because if you are a church or you're an organization and you take donations and you are found guilty in the court of law and you have to pay money out and you have to declare bankruptcy, all that money.
You collected goes to the people that the creditors, the people that you owe the money to.
The one exception federal government grants.
It cannot be touched by a court in the case of bankruptcy.
So, what Biden did was essentially set up a flow of funds to Catholic entities that were facing bankruptcies, creating a pipeline that could not be touched by those lawsuits.
So, he effectively allowed those Catholic organizations to continue to operate, even though they were technically bankrupt.
So, just think about that for a minute.
The Catholic charities are in bed with the Democrats because by doing so, they were able to finagle more money so that they could win over and get rid of any amount of monies that they were hiding.
Because in the bankruptcy in Chapter 11, they didn't have any access, they couldn't touch that federal money.
So, they're basically laundering money.
They're holding it for Joe Biden.
God knows what the kickback was.
I can't even imagine.
And remember, Joe Biden, just for the record, so Vince Langman on X, I love him, I follow him.
He's just a regular dude.
He posted this today and I really appreciate it.
It was a great reminder.
I think it was 2024, March 30th, 2024.
US News article Biden declares Easter Sunday.
Think about that Easter Sunday, the holiest of days for Catholics, okay?
Declares Easter Sunday as transgender day of visibility.
So, the guy who's funneling all this money to the NGOs and the Catholic charities is saying we're now declaring the day that Christ is rising as the day of transgender visibility?
You have got to be kidding me.
And just as a reminder of what Eric and Peter just said, okay, we are talking about in 2021, just the Dallas chapter.
Okay, this isn't even an aggregate of all the chapters throughout the country.
43 million.
In 2022, 140 million.
In 2023, 290 million, all under Biden.
None of that raises a red flag.
Think about the amount of money that we're talking about.
$43 million.
And in two years, it goes up to 290.
It's absurd.
What is going on with this money?
This is not nonprofit work.
This is not saving the children, rescuing the women, giving homes to the refugees, asylum for those who would be politically persecuted.
This is money laundering at the hands of religious sycophants who think that they can manipulate their parishioners into feeling guilty about wanting to remove people that are driving with illegal CDLs, raping women and children, pillaging homes, going from town to town across Western Europe.
They're all across the border in Texas.
What about all of those CBP officers finding bags of little kids' underwear after they were raped at the rape tree?
Too uncomfortable for the Pope, I guess.
These are the topics that make people pissed off.
They make me pissed off.
And not to mention the fact when Pelosi and Biden have all these stupid conversations about all the things that they want to say that have absolutely nothing to do with the Catholic Church.
If anything, they are the antithesis of what the Catholic Church is supposed to stand for.
I don't hear them saying anything about the millions of unborn babies that are killed every single year.
You see three cardinals going out and protesting all of these child mutilations that are happening under the trans laws.
All of the drag queens reading to children at their story hours at schools and libraries.
You see them talking to these babies that are born alive, people that are murdering their babies at nine months because they have partial and full term abortions.
Are they doing anything for any of that type of work?
No, nothing, nothing, nothing.
They're on talking about Trump.
And why are they talking about Trump?
Why are they making a comment about Trump?
Because they want to make sure they get their money.
And right now, they're not.
All those denominations that I just read off to you, absolutely nothing.
That's what they're really afraid of.
That's what the real problem is, right?
This is where we get into deep into the weeds.
So let's look at the next piece of audio that we have.
I think you guys are really going to like this, okay?
It's a little bit long, it's like a little over two minutes, but this is a woman who represents a branch of the Catholic Charities, okay?
She's their in house attorney.
Know Your Rights When Stopped00:03:09
And she is explaining to people if they are illegal, what to do if they are caught by Customs and Border Patrol.
This is a real video from someone who works within the church, in Catholic Charities, the nonprofit arm.
Just, you got, I can't make it up.
This is a real thing.
Hi, my name is Barb Graham, and I'm an attorney at Catholic Charities of the Archdiocese of Milwaukee in the Refugee and Immigration Services Program.
This is a video about knowing your rights if immigration and customs enforcement approaches you.
All people living in the United States, including people who are undocumented, have certain rights under the United States Constitution.
If immigration officers, what we sometimes call Immigration and Customs Enforcement or ICE, come to your workplace, they must have a valid search warrant or the consent of your employer to enter non public areas.
If you are undocumented and immigration officers come to your workplace, be aware of the following First, do not panic and do not run away.
If you are frightened and feel like you need to leave, you can calmly walk toward the exit.
If you are stopped, you may ask if you are free to leave.
If the officer says no, do not try to exit the building.
If you are questioned, you may tell them you want to remain silent.
Two, you have the right to remain silent.
You do not need to speak to the immigration authorities or answer any questions.
If you are asked where you were born or how you entered the United States, you may simply refuse to answer or remain silent.
If you choose to remain silent, say so out loud.
If they ask you to stand in a group according to your immigration status, you do not have to move, or you can move to an area that is not designated for any particular group.
You may show a Know Your Rights card to an officer that explains that you will remain silent and you wish to speak to a lawyer.
You may refuse to show identity documents and say what country you are from.
Do not, though, show any false documents and do not lie.
Third, you have the right to speak to a lawyer.
If you are detained or taken into custody, you have the right to immediately contact a lawyer.
Even if you do not have a lawyer, you may tell immigration officers that you want to speak to one.
If you have a lawyer, you have the right to talk to them.
If you have signed a form called a G28, which shows that you have a lawyer, give it to the officer.
If you do not have a lawyer, ask for an immigration officer for a list of pro bono lawyers.
You also have the right to contact your consulate.
The consulate may be able to assist you in locating a lawyer.
You can refuse to sign any or all paperwork until you've had the opportunity to speak to a lawyer.
If you choose to sign something without speaking to a lawyer, be sure you understand exactly what the document says and what the document means before you sign it.
If you want more information about your rights or to learn you might be eligible for immigration benefits or relief, speak to a reputable immigration lawyer.
You can go to the American Immigration Lawyers Association to connect with a lawyer in your area.
Spiritual Warfare and Bishop Defense00:07:21
Now, if anyone knows of any other video or any other efforts that Catholic Charities has done where they have put this much effort, please let me know.
Because I have to imagine that they haven't.
I mean, I searched ahead of doing this show today.
I was looking for other things that Catholic Charities is doing.
I was looking for other things that they were spending this much time on.
And there's nothing.
Because they're receiving so much money.
For aiding and abetting illegal aliens.
And the problem is, is that they say these, like, sort of like these gloss over statements, but they're not all like that.
The first illegal action that you have taken is entering the country illegally.
If you enter the country illegally and you're here, I don't know, five years, 10 years, 15 years, why have you never tried to remedy it?
There are so many ways for you to find a path to citizenship, and yet you don't.
This to me is a problem.
You know, I have a friend right now who's going through the whole process.
I mentioned it a couple of shows ago, and she's doing everything the right way, and it's not easy.
And she comes to me often Have you heard about this?
What do you know about this?
What do you think I should do?
I got this letter, it doesn't make any sense.
But my God, is she doing it the right way?
So many people aren't.
That's the problem.
And the Catholic charities are saying, too bad.
That's where we make our cheddar.
We don't care.
This is what we're doing.
That's not fair.
And, you know, when you look at some of the details, like we just gave you those numbers of those various NGO, you know, areas, whether that was specifically Texas and then one in San Diego.
And obviously, learning about the San Diego one and understanding that they were filing bankruptcy and being able to circumvent having to pay out any of that money.
So they're Also, working around that money.
And they're using that money to pay off the court charges that are brought against their priests and members of their clergy that are being charged with sexual crimes against children.
So it's a really sick thing.
Like, we need to eradicate the payoff system that exists honestly everywhere.
It's also in Congress, as we all well know.
I mean, we've got a $17 million slush fund for Congress for members of Congress who are committing these acts of.
Sexual deviancy against people who are seemingly not interested at all and are being accosted, assaulted while working in congressional offices.
And then you have the most self righteous out there talking about Eric Swalwell.
Like, yeah, we all know Eric is an asshole.
This isn't like news.
Even before the sexual assault, I would have loved to have seen him resign from Congress just because he was such a scumbag.
But Adam Schiff and Pelosi and Schumer, I mean, please.
Please save me the indignance.
I don't want to hear it.
Like, I don't want to hear it ever.
Be quiet.
Stop talking to me about it.
It's enough.
And you know, you think about how often they don't say something.
You think about how often they don't speak out.
You all remember when the churches got shut down during COVID.
They were separating the pews.
I vaccinated over here, unvaccinated on this side.
Nobody could go to church.
All this like crazy stuff.
What happened to the separation of church and state?
Right?
Couldn't have any of that.
Nope, not a thing.
And again, all these Catholics that are Democrats, okay with all the terrible things from abortion and on, I'm pretty sure the Bible's not okay with that, guys.
That whole idea that you can't make up what you want to agree with in the Bible, yeah, that goes for all of us.
Doesn't matter if you're a priest or just a regular patron like myself.
If I'm a parishioner and I believe everything that is against the doctrine of the church, then I shouldn't be going to that church.
So, you know what?
I'll say the same thing for those of you that are priests and bishops and cardinals and even the Pope.
If you don't want to stand for what's right, then could you get out of the way and let people who actually believe in the rule of law?
And the true religious doctrine as set forth by Jesus Christ, what you're doing, what you're acquiescing to, has nothing to do with faith.
Quite the opposite, actually.
And then I was reading this piece today on X, and it was a great reminder you know, that there was a dismissal of Catholic bishops who were defending exactly what I'm saying the church doctrine.
One was Bishop Joseph Strickland of Texas.
He was removed because he criticized church leaders who were defending abortion and gender ideology.
The other one was Bishop Daniel Fernandez of Puerto Rico.
And he was talking about defending Catholics' right to refuse vaccination on religious grounds because they were very clearly making it aware to all of us that the vaccines contained elements of aborted fetuses.
And so that was true.
And now they've all come out.
Obviously, it's what was that, 2020?
So it's six years later.
And now they're like, oh, yeah, that's all true.
Everything that we said you were wearing a tinfoil hat, all those conspiracies.
Yep, all true.
Sorry about that.
Moving on.
I mean, it is so against the catechism of the church.
And yet they're fine with it.
They're fine with it because they're getting paid.
And see, that's the test.
That's the test of whether you're going to stand with the church or you're going to fall into the hands of Satan.
That whole idea of spiritual warfare is happening right now, it's real.
When you see the Pope come out and attack an American president because he is trying to defend the rights of thousands and thousands of persecuted Persians who have been under the Ayatollah regime for 47 years and protect the rest of the world, you've got to be kidding me.
Do we need a nuclear weapon in the hands of people who are running around saying that women are worth less than sheep and dogs and you can marry little girls when they're nine?
No, we're not talking about that.
We'll just go on 60 minutes and we'll say that illegal immigration is okay and getting rid of people that are here that have committed crimes, you know, they're repugnant.
Maybe those bishops and cardinals should do a 60 minutes episode on angel families.
Maybe they should go talk to angel mom and dads who have lost their children at the hands of illegal aliens who never should have been here in the first damn place.
This shit really pisses me off.
And I can't stand to see people use religion and hide behind it so they can get around it, make money, and fund their disgusting narcissistic ways, and then go on TV and act all pious.
We're sick of it.
You know what?
Catholics like me, we're not going to stand for it.
We're going to do episodes like this.
We're going to talk to people like this, and we're going to call you out on the carpet.
And eventually, with any luck, we'll roll you up in it and get you out of the church.
That would be nice.
I'm looking forward to all you cardinals and bishops welcoming all of the illegal aliens, the trans, the LGBTQ.
Into the halls of the Vatican.
Come on, it'll be fun.
It'll be a great episode.
