This resonates deeply—we must stand up for our community.

He's not wrong! God bless the pope!

Thank you Dan, for speaking out and loudly against this regime.

Churches feed the poor? About time they get back to their roots instead of just abusing children and collecting money.

Are they still raping kids or no?

The pope is a communist so this makes sense.

You're painting a dramatic picture, but it ignores a basic reality: our immigration system is overwhelmed, our social services are stretched thin, and we simply can't afford to feed and support the entire world no matter how noble that might sound. Churches and faith leaders absolutely have the right to practice their beliefs, but that doesn't mean immigration laws suddenly disappear or that every enforcement action is an attack on religion. Plenty of churches operate openly without issue - the ones involved in immigration work aren't being targeted for their faith, they're being asked to follow the same laws as everyone else. Compassion matters, but so does sustainability. You can't help your neighbors if the system collapses under the weight of unlimited responsibility. Compassion and boundaries aren't opposites - they're necessary partners.

The Church helped foment the rise of maga when it joined with the GOP to overturn Roe. I agree with everything the Church is doing to fight trump's cruel immigration policies, but it can't pretend its actions did not help, however indirectly, make things worse.

It almost makes me want to be Catholic again.

Your faith requires confiscating people’s wealth and giving it away?

I think the church wants to be the ones to feed the poor. Isn't this what they want? More control.

Well said

It’s not the job of the government to feed the hungry…. Good job churches for doing what you are supposed to

What? I’m a Democrat and often agree with the Pope, just like Pelosi, Biden etc…

This is not something Democrats rarely say since Francis became Pope. Francis and Leo's focus on care for fellow humans and the Earth frequently aligns Papal statements and Democratic values

Dick Durbin is the Ranking Member of the U.S. Senate Judiciary Committee, the party needs to remove him from that position and elect someone else. He should lose that privilege. Yesterday’s righteousness is nothing for today’s fight.

I’ll say what democrats rarely do: Tax the church

Stop knocking Democrats. Period. We all love the Pope.

Gotcha, you agree with him only when it aligns with Dem agenda.

Values? What are the laws they are avoiding being accountable for? Toxic empathy isn’t working

The Catholic Church probably wants to sit this one out

Where have you been? It's the RIGHT that always gets triggered by anything the Pope says.

Catholic Dems are a thing, with a loooong tradition in this country fighting for social Justice and against the military industrial complex. For those looking for a GREAT podcast on the subject, hit this one podcasts.apple.com/us/podcas…

So it's too much to ask that illegal aliens be removed from our country? That is exactly what I voted for.

ah, the usual DNC chatter about values; if they actually had some, this could be interesting...just another piece from that outstanding, truthful, American Pravda, news source: MSNBC

Yet you didn't have a problem with churches being shut down during Covid.

When the Vatican lets anyone in the world move in, we can talk.

Killing babies isn't a good thing. Many women who get abortions have mental health problems.

Aren't churches supposed to feed the hungry? Besides, Catholics have plenty of money, I mean, look at the Vatican.

I agree democrats should be ashamed of themselves to not vote for a bill that they voted for last year just for political reasons. 60 votes are needed in the Senate. Everyone knows that, yet all dems are against republicans trying to open up the government. Repulsive humans

You can’t be a Christian and a democrat. All evil and cruel power hungry authoritarians that only care about lining their pockets and starving people for leverage while genociding the unborn.

Has the "pope" blessed a block of ICE lately???

Everyone needs to stop pushing faith on us. All of it. I don’t need to pray. I need a functioning govt without the greed, corruption and lies.
