BIDEN MUTE ON ANTI-CATHOLIC VANDALISM

by David Nussman • ChurchMilitant.com • August 11, 2020

Fails to condemn attacks on churches, statues

"DETROIT (ChurchMilitant.com) - CatholicVote, a faith-based advocacy group, is calling on Joe Biden — the Democratic Party's presumptive candidate for president — to speak out on a recent streak of anti-Catholic vandalism.

 

CatholicVote's president, Brian Burch, stated Thursday, "Catholic churches across America are literally burning, and Joe Biden has said nothing." He emphasized:

 

Leading members of the Democratic Party have fueled a climate of hate against Catholics and these attacks have now led to acts of vandalism and violence. These attacks on the Church raise serious questions about the commitment of Joe Biden, a self-professed Catholic, to stand up to the rising climate of anti-Catholicism across the country.

 

CatholicVote's statement came the same day as President Donald Trump accused Biden of being "against the Bible."

 

"I'm in favor of the Bible," President Trump remarked Thursday on the podcast Roadkill With Geraldo. "I'm in favor of Second Amendment. Biden is against all of those things. He's against oil, he's against the Bible — essentially against religion — but against the Bible, and he's against the Second Amendment."

 

Trump repeated this message Thursday during a visit to Ohio, claiming Biden will "hurt the Bible" and "hurt God."

 

Biden responded to Trump's remarks, "For President Trump to attack my faith is shameful."

 

The former vice president cast himself as a man of faith, adding, "Like so many people, my faith has been the bedrock foundation of my life: It's provided me comfort in moments of loss and tragedy, [and] it's kept me grounded and humbled in times of triumph and joy.""

"Anti-Semite" Ilhan Omar & "QAnon Believer" Marjorie Taylor

Greene Win Tuesday-Night Primaries

"Tuesday night was an interesting one in the seemingly endless stream of state primaries that have almost entirely slid out of the headlines thanks to the pandemic and Joe Biden's VP pick.

 

But just last night in Minnesota, following the primary victories of her fellow "Squad" members AOC & Rashida Tlaib, ilhan Omar, possibly the most controversial member of the bloc of progressive lawmakers (a bloc that looks set to expand in the next Congress with the prospect of a few new additions from New York State and elsewhere), has won the Democratic Primary in her Minneapolis District, practically guaranteeing her reelection in the fall.

 

Omar, one of two Muslim women in Congress, defeated fellow progressive and political newcomer Antone Melton-Meaux and three other candidates to win with more than 60% of the vote, wider than her margin of victory last time.

 

Melton-Meaux, a lawyer with no previous experience in electoral politics, mounted a strong challenge, raising $4.1 million, nearly as much as Omar herself. He also accused Omar of tending to her national reputation, and leaving behind the people of her district. However, the killing of George Floyd in Minneapolis - Omar represents a chunk of the city - helped supercharge her campaign, allowing her to beat back accusations of anti-semitism."
