Ji Fu<p>Hours before <a href="https://libranet.de/search?tag=Trump" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Trump</span></a> took the oath of office while refusing to touch a <a href="https://libranet.de/search?tag=Bible" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Bible</span></a>, <a href="https://libranet.de/search?tag=Pope" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Pope</span></a> <a href="https://libranet.de/search?tag=Francis" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Francis</span></a> called Trump's potential <a href="https://libranet.de/search?tag=immigration" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>immigration</span></a> policies a "disgrace." The <a href="https://libranet.de/search?tag=USCCB" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>USCCB</span></a> issued guidelines and encouraged lawmakers to make immigration policy "targeted, proportional, and humane."</p><p>Soon, <a href="https://libranet.de/search?tag=faith" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>faith</span></a> leadership from all over denounced Trump's inhumane and disgraceful immigration policies. Bishop Budde even pleaded face-to-face with Trump to show mercy on immigrant families.</p><p>In response to these courageous, prophetic voices, Vice President J.D. <a href="https://libranet.de/search?tag=Vance" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Vance</span></a> disputed the very definition of <a href="https://libranet.de/search?tag=Christian" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Christian</span></a> love in order to serve his anti-immigrant, <a href="https://libranet.de/search?tag=Christofascist" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Christofascist</span></a> agenda. Speaking with CBS and Fox News, Vance attacked the <a href="https://libranet.de/search?tag=Catholic" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Catholic</span></a> <a href="https://libranet.de/search?tag=Church" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Church</span></a> for "not being a good partner" on immigration and even falsely implied that they were only providing aid to get government funding. Then he wrongly claimed that Christians should rank our love for others in a way that deprioritizes non-Americans:</p><blockquote>"You love your family, and then you love your neighbor, and then you love your community, and then you love your fellow citizens... and then, after that, you can focus on and prioritize the rest of the world. A lot of the far left has completely inverted that."</blockquote><p><br>Friend, this is a deliberate distortion of the Gospel and an attempt to discredit those of us who advocate for welcoming immigrants because of our Christian faith. We must all stand together and proclaim that Christ's love is for all people no matter where they come from.<br><a href="https://act.faithfulamerica.org/petition/vance-immigration" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">[ADD YOUR NAME] J.D.Vance does not speak for us</a></p>

He has taken a personal interest in the plight of oppressed Nicaraguans, hosting a Mass last year at the Basilica of the Immaculate Conception in DC during which the exiled Auxiliary Bishop of Managua preached. Bishop Silvio Jose Baez counts Archbp Broglio as a friend of the oppressed.<br><a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/Catholic" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Catholic</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/USCCB" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>USCCB</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/SOSNicaragua" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>SOSNicaragua</span></a></p>
