Border Chaos and Catholic Charities

This week Florida's Republican Governor Ron DeSantis told Mark Levin that the Biden administration wants kindergartners "muzzled with a mask," but when it comes to people crossing the border illegally, "they don't give an [expletive] about COVID at that point."

He has a point.

CDC announced Tuesday they are now recommending individuals, even those vaccinated, to mask up in certain settings.

Columnist Michelle Malkin claims that while the Biden administration is obsessing over masks, it is importing Covid into the country over the southern border---with the assistance of Catholic Charities, who is making millions, if not billions of dollars doing so.

What's going on?

Be informed, not misled.

Something isn't adding up with Covid.

Florida Governor DeSantis is more than a little upset. He says

"I mean if you got a kid in kindergarten, they just said today they want the kid muzzled with a mask, even though COVID's not any risk to the kid. If you have a loved one overseas, they may not let them come and fly, just normal travel. Because of COVID they claim. But yet if you want to come straight across the border and have thousands of people pouring in, they don't give an "[expletive]" about COVID at that point. They're letting them right in."

On Tuesday the Biden CDC announced they would be backtracking on their previous guidance. Clearly the Biden people are in disarray in regard to the Covid issue (and many other issues) and the confusion is turning into chaos.

So, Fox News' Peter Doocy asked Biden's press secretary, Jen Psaki, "If vaccines work...then why do people who have the vaccine need to now wear masks?"

She didn't like the question and struggled to answer it, but finally said, "The public health leaders in our administration have made the determination, based on data, that that is a way to make sure they're protected."

Texas Sen Ted Cruz reacted, "Today's decision, sadly, was driven by politics, not science. Let me be clear: there should be no more Covid mandates, no vaccine mandates, no vaccine passports, no lockdowns, and no school closures."

He's not the only conservative lawmaker who feels that way. Hundreds are agreeing with him.

Texas Republican Representative Louie Gohmert says, "Until the Biden administration stops the thousands of people with Covid [Chinese coronavirus] from pouring into our country illegally, then shipping them all over the country, we are going to have waves of outbreak of Covid."

About the illegals being shipped "all over the country."

No question politics is driving Biden, but what about Catholic Charities and their billion-dollar involvement?



Michelle Malkin wrote yesterday,

"It seems there's no sanctuary from draconian mask and vaccine mandates. You can't get on a plane, go to school, work at a hospital perform on stage, compete in sports, exercise at a gym, worship in church or walk outside without the long shadows of Big Pharma and the Covid-19 control freaks looming over every aspect of your lives."

True.

She continues: 

"There is one escape hatch, however. If you're an illegal alien, congratulations! Privileged border trespassers have been handed special 'Get out of Covid Tyranny cards' while the Biden administration is poised to send vaccine squads door to door to harass law-abiding citizens."

She's not the only one raising this issue. There are others. We should all be informed.

Let's look at how Biden's border policy is enriching Catholic Charities while killing Americans and our God-given freedoms.

Tom Holman, retired acting ICE director, slammed President Biden this week for allowing the border to remain open while demanding Americans hold themselves accountable to Covid.

He said:

"The northern border we have with Canada is still closed because of Covid and the southern border is wide open...ICE already had 7,500 positive COVID cases run through their system. Right now, as we speak," he told Fox and Friends, "they have nearly 1200 active cases in custody that came across the border. And what really scares me is that nearly 300,000 got away this year."

Fox News reporter Bill Melugin Tweeted this week after an incident at Whataburger, "Police in LaJoya (Texas) say they've learned illegal immigrants who test positive for Covid-19 are being released from federal custody to a local Catholic charity in the (Rio Grande Valley) which then places them in local hotels without notice."


Border Report and others are reporting the same thing. In fact, Border Report is saying the local police told them the local Catholic Charities are not even containing the Covid positive illegals in their hotel rooms. They are out moving around town with no oversight or isolation.

As this became public, the La Joya charity placed a security guard at the hotel to contain the infected illegals.

It's unknown how many COVID-19-positive illegals have been housed at hotels in Texas, but it's thousands over time.

Malkin is reporting that she has spoken with eyewitnesses who have observed Catholic Charities routing untold numbers of border trespassers onto buses and planes to be distributed across the country---without ID's. She has also been told that Catholic Charities workers are often seen giving the illegals envelopes as they prepared to depart. They assume the envelopes contain cash.

This is happening all across the nation. Not just in Texas.

In her book, "Open Borders Inc.," Malkin says Catholic Charities takes in an annual revenue of  about $4 billion, of which $1.2 billion comes from taxpayers. In fact, taxpayer funding is their largest single source of revenue.

In her book she warns all conservative Catholics who believe in a sovereign America to be informed  that the radicalized leaders of Catholic Charities are using your collection plate contributions to implement Marxist-inspired liberation theology principles. "Think of it," she says "as faith-based socialism for a borderless planet."

The Washington Times has estimated that about 57 government agencies now contract with Catholic Charities in their multi-billion dollar operation. There are also numerous unknown financial and in-kind contributions from governmental and intergovernmental agencies ranging from the European Union to the United Nations to a number of foreign countries.

Takeaway

Clearly, not all Catholics agree with this operation. Or even understand the enormity of what they are doing. They are essentially covering for the dysfunctional Biden administration.

The "charities" are, as is the so-called protestant "religious Left," pushing a leftist theology that is not biblical or charitable. It's destructive and heretical. 

Malkin says:

"It's bad enough the multi-billion dollar illegal alien racket run by Catholic Charities puts 'welcoming the (border-jumping) stranger' above America's own homeless, jobless, veterans, Native Americans and poor. But for federally-funded Catholic Charities and Biden officials to work together to undermine our borders and open our doors to hordes of maskless Covid-19-carrying trespassers flouting our laws---as we citizens suffer under unceasing pandemic oppression---is unholy treachery." 

Indeed it is. Thankfully, Election Day is coming.

Be Informed. Be Discerning. Be Vigilant. Be Prayerful.
