A Catholic bishop in Michigan weighed in on the discrepancy between President Biden's policies and his professed Catholic faith earlier this month, suggesting "forgiveness" for the president's "stupidity." Bishop Robert Gruss of the Diocese of Saginaw mentioned Biden during "Forgiveness as the Heart of Christianity," a lecture given on Apr. 5 at the Cathedral of Mary of the Assumption.

Bishop,while Joe is stupid, his motivation on turning his back on his religion is political. You cannot be a good Democrat and a good Catholic.

Biden is a cafeteria Catholic. He picks and chooses. Most Catholic politicians are like this. They want power and prestige and the way society is today, they can't get it unless they bow to the gods of gay and trans.

perhaps i could attribute misguided compassion in Biden's approach to gender etc - but what i find disturbing is him never speaking out on abortion which even Bill Maher calls 'murder' but he's okay with it. apparently so is Joe and after seeing how he treats granddaughter Navy - abominably, freezing her out due to Hunter's sins - it's hard not to call him out for his lack of Judaeo-Christian values. on this, he has a dark twisted soul. and then there are all the lies, my word, a never-ending river of them.

We should forgive Joe, not be angry at him. How about pity towards Joe, and concern for our country, does that get a pass?

I disagree with the Bishop. Anger directed against evil is not a sin. Make no mistake, support of abortion, child mutilation, Islamists, etc. is evil. Jesus did not sin when in his righteous anger he drove the moneylenders out of the temple. Calling Joe "stupid" is just an excuse and lets him off the hook for the evils he encourages.

1. I do pray Joe comes to a true understanding of the Christian faith, but unless/until that happens, I pray he, and his ilk, will be removed from power. I don't believe that is wrong. How many Psalms lamented evil by those in power? 2. He says Joe is not dumb in the "derogatory sense", but in that he doesn't understand the Catholuc faith. I beg to differ. This man has shown himself to be dumb, in the derogatory sense, for well over 50 years. He understands the Catholic faith about as well as he can understand anything, given his low IQ. Please don't try, dear bishop, to pretend this man is not stupid in the all around truest sense of the word.

The Bishop say Joe is Stupid, if he believes that Joe Biden is ignorant of the Catholic stance on abortion, the Bishop is the one who is stupid. Joe knows the rules. He deliberately ignores them for his political purposes. making excuses for Biden is BS. Joe needs to be excommunicated. not forgiven.

The Bishop is correct to say we should ask God to forgive our anger with Biden’s stupidity. But, it would nice if we told Biden he needs to ask God to forgive all of the lies, slander, and hatred he spews toward anyone that does not want to vote for him. It seems that if he stops doing this, fewer people would be angry with him.

#10, I do agree what Joe perfectly understands the church's stance on abortion, which is why he used to be opposed to it. The problem in this car is that while, again, Biden really is an idiot, he's also a hypocrite. He's Catholic only as far as he feels it's politically beneficial to him. That's true of everything about Joe - he's a cobbled together "story" of whatever works best in any situation. This is a narcissistic bast*rd with no moral compass. There is no line he is unwilling to cross if he feels he can gain adulation and power.

Biden and any other Catholic holding office know that abortion is wrong. It takes a life. What they say is that they cannot force their beliefs on their constituents. This is their EXCUSE for supporting abortion. They truly believe that this is what will justify their support. It's just good ole politics! It is said that the clintons did not believe in abortion until they got into politics. They changed their minds to get votes. Pelosi thinks the same way. As do many in congress.

Biden angers and embarrasses me every damned day. His insistent lying, his sick manifestations of pedophilia, his hatred of any of us who oppose his toxic policies, his demonic fascination taxpayer-funded abortion, his ignorance, and his obvious idiocy accumulate to little more than a withered husk, an empty and pathetic excuse for a Catholic man.

Outside the mob of Hamas supporters were chanting “Genocide Joe” while inside Joe Biden was trying to raise more money. Yet the terrorist supporters and the president both shared a funding source. The Soros clan has been accused of providing an estimated $15 million to the pro-terrorist groups storming cities in support of Hamas, and an estimated $758,000 already to Biden. Both of those are only partial estimates of much larger spending by the family of radical billionaires which have simultaneously been funding the anti-Israel movement, trojan horse Jewish groups and the Democratic Party politicians whom they are busy pressuring.

Rep. Kat Cammack (R-FL) revealed plans to introduce legislation prohibiting the “display of foreign nations’ flags” in the House of Representatives after Democrats celebrated the passage of a $61 billion foreign aid package to Ukraine. Prior to the bill’s passage, Democrats in the House of Representatives were seen celebrating by waving miniature Ukrainian flags on the floor of the House chambers. “Watching American representatives pass out & wave Ukrainian flags in the United States House of Representatives chamber infuriated me,” Cammack wrote in a post on X. “As we speak, my team is drafting legislation that will prohibit the display of foreign nations’ flags on the House floor.”

Is National Public Radio fair and balanced? Do they care what you think? NPR has a “public editor” to monitor listener complaints and concerns, but as we all know, the majority of their listeners are going to complain they’re not “progressive” enough. In 2021, Public Editor Kelly McBride appeared on Brian Stelter’s CNN podcast to praise NPR’s decision to allow their journalists to go to (leftist) public protests so they can “bring their full humanity to work with them.” When Stelter asked about NPR’s critics, McBride dismissed any conservative complaints about a leftist tilt because they are not “genuinely interested in improving NPR.”

A Republican-led effort to pass another border security bill failed on Saturday shortly before the House is expected to pass $95 billion in foreign aid funding. The bill, which failed 215 to 199, contained many components of the conservative H.R. 2 border bill, which has not been touched by the Democrat-led Senate since it passed in May 2023. The failed measure proposed immediate construction of a border wall, asylum restrictions and the reinstatement of Donald Trump's Remain in Mexico policy, which Democrats despise.

Lawrence said in a statement. “Even when such necessity is proven, the practice remains unlawful if there is an alternative practice available that is comparably effective in achieving the employer’s goals but causes less discriminatory effect,” Lawrence said.

The first model of the USS Enterprise — used in the opening credits of the original “Star Trek” television series — has boldly gone back home, returning to creator Gene Roddenberry’s son decades after it went missing. The model’s disappearance sometime in the 1970s had become the subject of lore, so it caused a stir when it popped up on eBay last fall. The sellers quickly took it down, and then contacted Dallas-based Heritage Auctions to authenticate it. Last weekend, the auction house facilitated the model’s return. Eugene “Rod” Roddenberry, CEO of Roddenberry Entertainment, said he’s thrilled to have the model that had graced the desk of his father.

A new study out of UCLA says same-sex couples are at greater “risk of exposure to the adverse effects of climate change” than straight couples. These effects include “wildfires, floods, smoke-filled skies, and drought,” according to a report from KQED. Same-sex couples disproportionately live in coastal regions and cities, which are more vulnerable to such disasters. They’re also more likely “to live in areas with poor infrastructure, worse-built environments.” Washington DC, which rates high for “climate risks” such as heat waves, floods, and “dangerously strong winds,” has the greatest proportion of gay couples in the U.S. San Francisco ranks second, and also faces a high climate change risk.

A massive new anti-Israel tent city took over Columbia University on Sunday, just days after an NYPD raid cleared another intrusive encampment there and cuffed more than 100 protesters. At least 30 tents were sprawled across the Manhattan Ivy League school’s West Lawn along with piles of food and supplies as embattled university officials struggled to contain the growing crisis. The upheaval and threats to Jewish students have become so intolerable that a prominent rabbi at the prestigious school urged them Sunday to stay home — and university officials told them they could take classes online. “We are looking for our demands, and we are going to continue that,”

The source told Breitbart that China is now within the top ten nationalities encountered by the Border Patrol along the southern border.

House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.) on Saturday crushed a putsch by far-right Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene and Republican rebels — pushing through a $95.3 billion aid package that funds the fight against Russia, the defense of Israel and resistance against China. Lawmakers in a rare bipartisan effort overwhelmingly approved the four-bill package, including one measure providing $60.8 billion for Ukraine. About 80% of that money will go toward replenishing supplies of US-made weapons and ammunition and other direct military assistance. Another $9.5 billion is in the form of a forgivable loan. The bill passed 311-112 with all “nay” votes coming from Republicans, including Greene who was hailed as “Moscow Marjorie” by

Biden abandoned Afghanistan’s Bagram Airfield after nearly 20 years in July by shutting off the electricity and slipping away in the night without notifying the base’s Afghan commander, who discovered the Americans’ secret departure more than two hours after they left. The Taliban quickly took control of Bagram Air Base, which is only 30 miles north of Kabul, on August 15th and released thousands of terrorists held at its prison. The Americans and Afghans left the Taliban military equipment, uniforms, rations and even sports drinks.
