America’s priorities are upside down, and liberal activists just can’t help themselves from turning everything into an attack on law enforcement. Case in point: Now religious leaders are dragging the courts into a fight over ICE facilities in Minneapolis, acting like sanctuary access for illegal immigrants is the new battle for civil rights.
The facts are simple. Protestant and Catholic clergy—who seem to have plenty of time on their hands—are demanding a federal judge force America’s immigration agents to let them into a Minneapolis holding center. That’s right. While hardworking ICE officials are trying to protect the border and enforce the law under the Trump administration, activists want special access so they can turn detention centers into their own mission field.
Meanwhile, crime keeps rising and the border is still a mess, thanks in no small part to open-borders Democrats and their reckless policies. You’d think clergy would be focused on supporting law-abiding American families. But apparently, their top priority is offering comfort to people who broke the law to get here. It’s incredible that with all the problems facing our own citizens, some folks want the courts to add yet another distraction for our border agents.
Let’s be real. This has nothing to do with spiritual compassion, and everything to do with undermining President Trump’s strong stand on immigration. The left is desperate to make ICE look like villains and illegal immigrants into martyrs. Now they’re using priests and ministers as their pawns in court, hoping that if they can’t win at the ballot box, they’ll get their way from activist judges.
The United States is a nation of laws, not feelings. If the clergy want to help, maybe they should start by respecting the law instead of teaming up with the open-borders lobby. Where was all this righteous outrage when American families were hurt by illegal immigration? Maybe the clergy should spend more time preaching about personal responsibility and less time doing the dirty work of liberal politicians.
How long will Americans put up with this circus? At some point, enough is enough.
