Before we Americans actually hear any of Kamala’s actual policies are there any groups of Americans that should be seriously thinking long and hard before voting for her?To me the answer is obviously, “yes!” Where to start? … Let’s start with Catholics.
FROM CV NEWS FEED:
Catholic columnist and author Ashley McGuire recently stated that Democrat presidential candidate Kamala Harris is a “bigot,” referring to the vice president’s “blatant discrimination against people of faith, particularly Catholics.”
McGuire, a Senior Fellow at the Catholic Association laid out Harris’ anti-Catholic history in an article for the New York Post, beginning with Harris’ 2018 targeting of Brian Buescher, a Knight of Columbus who was running to be a federal judge at the time.
“Then-Sen. Harris subtly criticized the charitable and fraternal organization for being an ‘all-male society comprised primarily of Catholic men,’ then not-so-subtly slammed it for adhering to [Buescher’s] faith’s core — or “extremist,” to use her word — beliefs about life and family,” McGuire wrote.
She added that Harris arranged for Buescher to be asked if he would resign from the Knights if his position as judge were confirmed in order “to avoid any appearance of bias.”
“That’s what they call a religious test for office, and it’s illegal,” McGuire pointed out.
McGuire also highlighted the legislation that Harris has sponsored in the past, such as the Do No Harm Act and the Equality Act. The first act would have required healthcare workers or charitable organizations to provide abortions or contraceptives, without exceptions for religious beliefs, while the second would have required faith-based organizations to hire people who opposed their religious values by living in same-sex unions or under “transgender” lifestyles.
Harris also supported the California FACT Act, which would have required crisis pregnancy centers—including the Catholic and Christian sites—to refer women to abortion facilities, going against their religious beliefs. She also wanted faith-based corporations like Hobby Lobby to cover abortion pills in their healthcare plans for employees, once more violating the religious principles and values of the Christian company.
“Both cases were casualties at the Supreme Court, which stepped in to defend the conscience rights of religious Americans,” McGuire wrote, adding, “Kamala Harris does not think you can be both a Knight of Columbus and a federal employee.”
While I have many, many reasons to not vote for Kamala, her obvious anti-Catholic prejudice when questioning Brian Buescher is way more than enough for me to agree with Ashley McGuire that Kamala is, indeed, a “bigot,” as a zebra doesn’t change its stripes.
