CV NEWS FEED // Catholic Relief Services (CRS) was the top recipient of funding from the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID), Forbes reported Feb. 3.

According to Forbes, CRS, a nonprofit, received $4.6 billion from 2013 to 2022. Other top recipients include Chemonics International, a for-profit organization that received $4.5 billion; FHI 360, a nonprofit that received $3.8 billion; and Development Alternatives, a for-profit organization that received $3 billion.

Secretary of State Marco Rubio became the acting director of USAID Feb. 3, as CatholicVote previously reported. The decision came after the agency attempted to block the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) from accessing its financial records.

CRS has been the subject of controversy in the past for supporting pro-abortion aid programs. As CatholicVote reported in 2023, the organization attempted to mislead senators by stating that African bishops were not opposed to an AIDS relief program that would promote abortion. Six African bishops, in fact, signed a letter organized by the conservative advocacy group The Heritage Foundation that opposed the Biden-era President’s Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR).

America’s Catholic bishops are decrying the evils of human trafficking, while ignoring their own role in facilitating the dehumanizing practice…

One “hard conversation” that it seems the bishops have been avoiding, however, is that of their own role in facilitating the illegal immigration crisis at the southern border, and the ensuing human trafficking. Over the past four years, the number of unaccompanied migrant children who have gone missing at the border has tripled: of the roughly half a million children who crossed the border without a guardian, over 300,000 have gone missing…

It is worth noting that the Office on Human Trafficking in Persons, a division of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, has only reported the number of unaccompanied migrant children who have been found and are known to have been trafficked. There are thousands of children still missing, many of whom have likely been sold into sex slavery or forced into prostitution.

The Catholic bishops of the U.S. and their affiliate organizations have, unfortunately, helped facilitate this tragedy. More than that, they have profited from doing so. According to data compiled by the organization Corpus Christi for Unity and Peace, the USCCB and its affiliates were paid nearly $450 million to deal with unaccompanied migrant children, many of whom were either placed with unvetted adult sponsors or are still missing…

But the U.S. bishops and their “charitable” allies have done more than just deal with unaccompanied migrant children: they have encouraged, accelerated, and exacerbated the ongoing illegal immigration crisis overall. Records up to 2015 show that the USCCB and its affiliates netted roughly $2 billion in government funding for various immigrant and refugee “services,” including shuttling illegal immigrants deeper into the U.S. once across the border and equipping them with pre-paid cell phones and loaded debit cards. However, under the Biden administration, the USCCB was paid nearly $635 million and Catholic Charities was paid a staggering $1.7 billion for immigrant and refugee “services.”

Under the first Trump administration, the USCCB was paid less than $215 million from the federal government’s coffers and USCCB made less than $130 million. Is it any wonder then that Catholic bishops are so vehemently denouncing Trump’s second administration, and especially his immigration policy? The bishops have been denied their allowance…

(Don’t miss the part where she explains how proud she was to amputate her teen daughter’s breasts. I’m not sure if she bore this child or purchased her, but Cynthia and her sodomy partner deserve the millstone. -nvp)

From @charliekirk11: At a protest against Trump’s executive orders targeting child mutilation procedures on minors, Actress Cynthia Nixon reveals that:

-Her daughter is transgender

-Her niece is transgender

-Her best friend’s child is transgender

-Her daughter’s best friend is transgender

-Her life is filled with transgender people, “young and old, but especially young.” …

From The Thinking Housewife:

IT’S NOT enough to close down the Human Mutilation Clinics participating in the ugly con that a woman can be made into a man, or a man can be made into a woman.

The people in charge of, working in, and funding these places should be arrested, tried and convicted of fraud and assault.

As long as they walk free, the chances are high that these centers of “transgenderism” will be up and running again.

An actress and dangerous political agitator who says the kind things the celebrity Cynthia Nixon said in this speech in New York City this week should be arrested for endangering the welfare of the young and promoting medical fraud. She belongs in prison. Believe it or not, beautiful, wealthy and successful people can be the worst kinds of criminals.

Actors and actresses, especially successful celebrities, should never be asked for their opinions about anything important. Actors and actresses tend to be uniquely air-headed and often deranged. They spend their lives in mimicry, role playing and working as human clothes hangers, none of which confer wisdom. They typically have nothing inside their heads but the latest political fads that make their often viciously competitive lives seem virtuous. Nixon proves this point most vividly when she proudly boasts that her daughter has had her breasts amputated and is now pretending in her state of advanced mutilation that she is a man. Celebrities like Nixon — a member of the Marxist group Democratic Socialists of America — are blood-thirsty idols walking in the land of the living dead.

The mob that cries out in support of her is similar to that mob in Jerusalem long ago. “Crucify him! Crucify him!”

They are a pack of murderous dogs.

 

Google drops diversity pledge, shifts DEI hiring strategy

“Assigned male at birth…” it will take years to get rid of this crap.

I will continue to take the Wins, while remaining skeptical on the long game. This here is the end of the nightmare begun nine years ago after the Obama bathroom edict; May 13th, 2016 to be exact… the 99th anniversary of the First Apparition at Fatima. A huge miscalculation, it greatly helped the Trump campaign back then. Story continues after the video.

In America, a time for choosing

Originally posted May 13, 2016

And so it came to pass, 13 May 2016, the Obama administration announces it will cut federal funding to schools who do not allow transgender students to use the bath/locker room of whichever gender they identify with. We love the little children so much, it simply must be done. HERE

Today is the day we decide if we are going to take back our country.

That’s a pretty big deal, so we should probably examine some facts and try to determine exactly what’s at stake here. Without getting into some of the more bizarre claims of the Trans movement, where there may be oh a thousand genders, let’s just stick with the simple case of “the gender I identify with is the opposite of my biological sex.”

Indoctrination of children in “gender studies” and forcing them to “choose” genders is child abuse. Gender Dysphoria in children is not unusual, especially among girls. Ever hear of a “tomboy”? They’re not exactly rare. In the vast, vast majority of cases, everything works itself out during puberty, when the sex hormones do their thing. To force or encourage hormonal treatment of a pre-pubescent child should be a crime.

Gender Dysphoria in adults is a mental illness. It’s a disorder. As such, treatment is the rational course, even if the effectiveness of treatment varies. Celebration and encouragement lead to further misery. Ten minutes of research into life outcomes of this group will astound you. 41% attempt suicide. The movement will try to convince you that’s all about bullying and social stigma, but it’s not. Even those who have “fully transitioned” (in quotes because that’s not physically possible) are still overwhelmingly very sad, regretful, and yes, still very suicidal. Please, ten minutes, do the research. There are entire websites dedicated to this.

The irony of the bath/changing/locker room signage battle is inescapable. The Trans movement has spent years attempting to disconnect gender from biological sex. Yet the sign on the locker room isn’t referring to your feelings (even if those feelings are very real). The sign is referring to your biological sex, which is a metaphysical certitude. The X and Y don’t lie.

We’re going to hear a lot of talk about hatred and bigotry. I want to talk about love. Love and charity. When you profess to love someone, or to be charitable to your fellow man, you are professing that you care for them. These people are hurting; there is no doubt about that. They deserve to have their human dignity upheld and respected. Sometimes, caring means sharing hard truths for the well-being of another. If you really do care, then it’s your duty to call it out. Because the opposite of love isn’t hate, the opposite of love is indifference. Doing nothing, staying silent, is the opposite of love.

Let me assure you, what’s going on here with fedgov intervention has nothing to do with Trans rights. Do you really think the political ruling class gives a shit about 0.0016 of the voting population? No. This is about pushing the envelope to see where the breaking point lies. This is about testing the moral fabric of this country to see just how outrageously they can overreach until somebody decides to do something about it. This is a weighing of the sheeple.

I hope everyone understands this: If you support biological men in girls’ locker/bath/changing rooms, you are making a conscious choice to place the feelings of a tiny minority above the physical safety of all women and children. If that’s your opinion, just get comfortable with the fact that, in your mind, an increased level of violence against women and children in the form of rape, assault and murder by sexual predators abusing this new paradigm is simply the price of progress.

This is an appeal to every father, brother, husband. Do you willfully submit to putting your daughters, sisters and wives at grave risk for the sake of the “feelings” of 0.0016 of the population? Are you okay with giving the green light for every sexual predator to claim he “feels like a woman” and to freely enter, by federal law, any girls’ bathroom, changing room, or locker room he wants? If not, what are you going to do about it? Do you even have the balls to share this post?

Here’s an idea: Withdraw your kids from public school on Monday. Give the schools and the states the summer to stand up to the fedgov overreach. That action brings zero risk to you and your family, yet if done on a massive scale, could do some real good. HERE
This is a war on women and children. Period.

Gentlemen, into the breach…

We are deeply troubled by the news of missing migrant children, and our concern intensifies with the revelation that the US Conference of Catholic Bishops (USCCB) and Catholic Charities have received millions in federal funds to manage these vulnerable unaccompanied minors. This issue strikes at the heart of our faith, especially as we approach the feast day of St. Josephine Bakhita on February 8th, the patron saint of human trafficking victims…

The Unsettling Reality of Unaccompanied Migrant Children

During President Biden’s administration, an estimated 500,000 unaccompanied migrant children crossed the U.S.-Mexico border. According to Tom Homan, former acting director of ICE, and other sources, over 300,000 of these children have gone missing after being placed in the care of HHS through NGOs. Shockingly, there has been no concerted effort to track down 291,000 unaccompanied migrant children, according to HHS testimony last year. ICE was able to locate another 32,000 of the unaccompanied migrant children, but these children missed their court hearings. This leaves us with a grim reality: 323,000 children are unlocated, and their safety is uncertain, making them vulnerable to trafficking and exploitation.

The Catholic NGOs Involved

Here are the Gang of Four Catholic NGOs who “served” the unaccompanied children across the border (unaccompanied alien children “UAC):

• Catholic Charities USA: They provide immediate shelter, food, and long-term support like legal aid and health services, directly managing the day-to-day care for many unaccompanied minors.
• United States Conference of Catholic Bishops (USCCB): Acts as a coordinator for the UAC program, managing funds and programs, including shelter services and legal representation, often subcontracting to Catholic Charities.
• Catholic Legal Immigration Network, Inc. (CLINIC): Focuses on legal aid, not shelter, offering support to unaccompanied children in navigating immigration laws.
• Catholic Relief Services (CRS): Engages in advocacy for migrant issues, including UAC, from a policy perspective.

Catholic Charities, in particular, has received intense scrutiny, for the sheer volume of children they have trafficked, and their role in fracturing the family unit as well as placing children with unvetted sponsors. Whistleblower Tara Rodas has highlighted a system where children end up in exploitative conditions due to insufficient oversight.

Catholic NGOs Receive Nearly Half Billion Dollars for Unaccompanied Migrant Children

CUP’s research (through analysis of USASpending.gov) reveals the USCCB and Catholic Charities have received $449 million in total to shelter and transport unaccompanied migrant children. Here is how it breaks down…

from Complicit Clergy by Staff

U.S. Catholic Bishops were clearly complicit in the illegal invasion of our nation during the past four years.  And is it any wonder?  Catholic organizations received nearly $3 billion from the federal government for immigration-related services over the course of the Biden administration.

It now appears some of these same bishops are actively working to obstruct enforcement of our immigration laws.  In doing so, bishops and other Catholic clergy are likely in violation these same federal laws.

Title 8 U.S.C. 1324 describes several crimes involving assisting, transporting, or harboring aliens entering the country illegally. Under this law, any of the following actions constitute a federal immigration crime:

• Smuggling aliens into the U.S. under subsection 1324(a)(1)(A)(i) makes it a crime to bring aliens into the United States by any entry place other than a designated port of entry or another legal entry point. This is true even if the alien(s) in question have been legally authorized to enter.
• Transporting unauthorized aliens under subsection 1324(a)(1)(A)(ii) makes it a crime to transport an unauthorized alien inside the U.S. by any means of transportation while knowing the alien has entered the country illegally.
• Harboring unauthorized aliens under subsection 1324(a)(1)(A)(iii) makes it a crime to harbor, shield, or conceal an unauthorized alien knowingly. Harboring includes providing shelter or other assistance (financial, food, etc.).
• Encouraging illegal entry under subsection 1324(a)(1)(A)(iv) makes it unlawful to encourage aliens to enter the United States illegally. This includes inducing or persuading aliens to cross the border without proper authorization.
• Conspiring with others to bring in aliens illegally/aiding/abetting under subsection 1324(a)(1)(A)(v) makes it a federal crime to conspire with others to bring unauthorized aliens into the United States or assist them in doing so, whether for financial gain or not.
• Bringing unauthorized aliens into the U.S under subsection 1324(a)(2). Unlike smuggling aliens, which only deals with bypassing legitimate ports of entry (see above), this section makes it a federal crime to knowingly bring any unauthorized alien into the country at any point or by any means.
• Knowingly hiring unauthorized aliens under subsection 1324(a)(3)(A). Newly added to this law in 1996, it is now a crime for any employer to hire ten or more unauthorized aliens within 12 months knowingly.

If you are aware of Catholic clergy actively obstructing enforcement of our immigration laws, we encourage you to report this information to the U.S. Customs and Border Enforcement.
