Saints needed to stand up against the "most anti-Catholic President"

So says Fr. Jerry Pokorsky, a priest of the Diocese of Arlington VA and director of Human Life International. In his curiously-titled essay "In Gratitude for Joe Biden", published yesterday on the CatholicCulture.org website, Father Pokorsky calls Sleepy Joe "the most aggressively anti-Catholic President in history."

Why, then, should we be grateful to him? We'll come to that shortly, but first let's ask Father: But doesn't Mr Biden make a great show of being Catholic? Did he not say, in 2005, "The next Republican that tells me I'm not religious, I'm going to shove my rosary beads down their throat!"? 

That is true, says Fr. Pokorsky, but  despite Mr Biden's outward show of piety, "for most of his political life — from his consistent pro-abortion record to his officiating at a gay wedding in 2016 — despite his Catholic affiliation and public pious practices, Joe Biden has magnified and institutionalized countless major violations of the Ten Commandments."

"The hypocrisy rivals that of the chief priests and Pharisees, and is worthy of the same condemnation," Fr. Pokorsky writes. "Indeed, Biden is the most aggressively anti-Catholic President in history."

Why would the priest say that? Because of the hypocrisy -- the dichotomy between his outward show of piety on the one hand and his record of supporting evil on the other. "Biden’s habitual and unapologetic sinful acts are on full display." 

There's a lot more to being a faithful Catholic, Fr. Pokorsky says, than carrying a rosary, the priest declares. "It is presumptuous and dangerous to proclaim oneself as a devout Catholic or to encourage (or even allow) the description." Indeed, Jesus said, "Not every one that saith to me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven: but he that doth the will of my Father who is in heaven, he shall enter into the who says to me, 'Lord, Lord,' shall enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who does the will of my Father..." (St. Matthew 7:21 DRV)

China Joe's positions on key moral issues are hardly consistent with his description of himself as a Catholic. For instance, he has declared himself committed to codifying Roe v. Wade, the Supreme Court decision that legalized abortion. And he has promised to appoint judges "that respect foundational precedents like Roe."

But wait, there's more.... Mr Biden has also called on Congress to quickly pass the Equality Act, which would add sexual orientation and gender identity as protected classes under the 1964 Civil Rights Act. And there's his nomination of Xavier Becerra to lead the Department of Health and Human Services. See "Biden names never-Trumper and gender ideologue to HHS", WWW 26/2/21.

Fr. Pokorsky argues persuasively that Mr Biden's insistent claim that he is a devout Catholic forces an "unavoidable choice." We either: stand with the Church and reject Biden's "iconic culture-of-death policies," or we join those who "celebrate Biden’s flouting of Church teaching."

So why should we be thankful that Sleepy Joe now now snoozes in the Oval Office, waking every now and then to undo some of the good done by President Trump? Because, Father says, "The election of Biden has forced a crisis. From the ashes, we can expect the Holy Spirit to raise up successors to those who opposed another anti-Catholic tyrant: Saint John Fisher and Saint Thomas More. May there be many of them!" Amen.

VIDEOS: Biden names never-Trumper and gender ideologue to HHS

Walt's absence for the last few days has been necessitated by the speed and audacity with which George Soros' First Puppet (aka Sleepy Joe Biden) has moved to erase from the history of the Disunited States President Trump, and all his works, no matter whether doing so helps or hurts the nation. I needed time to catch up. 

China Joe will be assisted in his anti-Trump mission by a slew of radical activists who have been appointed to top levels in his administration. Chief among these are Dr (((Rachel Levine))), picked to be Biden's Assistant Secretary of Health, and Xavier Becerra, an attorney and Chairman of the House Democratic Caucus from 2013 to 2017, nominated as Secretary of Health and Human Services.

Dr Levine is described by the lamestream media as "a gender non-conforming biological male who identifies as transgender". I think this means "she" is a transvestite (or cross-dresser, as we used to call them -- like Ed Wood), or maybe a trans woman wannabe who hasn't had the operation yet.

"Her" appointment represents the triumph of the alphabet people and gender ideology over the old-fashioned idea that God created one man and one woman. "She" advocates "gender fluidity", the insane notion that people should be able to switch back and forth from one mode of "gender expressiion" to another, and that the state (i.e. taxpayers) should assist them, by paying for surgical and chemical "gender reassignment". 

In this video, Senator Rand Paul (R-KY) asks Dr Levine a pointed question about the surgery, which he likens to female genital mutilation, a barbaric practice common in certain [read: Islamic] parts of the Middle East and Africa.

   

Unless the sane members of the Senate can prevent it, Xavier Becerra will become Dr Levine's boss. Mister Becerra is not a doctor, but a lawyer (and lapsed Catholic) who has been tireless in fighting for the killing of innocent unborn babies. ["Abortion rights", shurely. Ed.] 

Most recently, as Attorney General of California, Mr Becerra has spent a lot of his time suing President Trump. He took the Trump administration to court 110 times, making him a key figure of the anti-Trump "resistance". Apparently that qualifies him to take over leadership of the fight against the Covid Dempanic, but Senator Ted Cruz (R-TX) can't figure out how. Nor can a number of eminent doctors. Here's the video.

   

 And then there's the admitted supporter of Islamic terrorism who's been named to the Department of Homeland Security. [We regret that limitations of space prevent us from posting anything more. M-106.]
