Dear CV Friend,

"Never let a serious crisis go to waste."

Remember those words from Obama's Chief of Staff Rahm Emanuel?

The radical Left remembers it well.

And now they're using the recent protest at the U.S. Capitol as a
pretext to attack religious conservatives.

Jesuit celebrity priest James Martin is claiming that "Catholic
leaders helped give rise to the violence at the U.S. Capitol."

His evidence?

Martin cites a video by Fr. James Altman titled "You Cannot be a
Catholic and a Democrat," in which Altman states: "Their party
platform absolutely is against everything the Catholic Church
teaches."

The FBI is currently investigating radicalized followers of the
Qanon conspiracy, but Martin apparently thinks those who stormed
the Capitol were watching sermons by Catholic priests!

Long gone are the days when left-wing Catholics like Martin
smeared faithful Catholics as bigots or white supremacists. Now
he's adopted the totalitarian mob's new playbook: Sideline
anyone who disagrees with him by suggesting they're domestic
terrorists.

Even before the riot at the Capitol, radical Democrats had
released a 28-page document which outlines all the policies they
want a Biden-Harris administration to enact.

It starts with eliminating all the religious liberty protections
that the Trump administration put in place -- including policies
which ensured that faith-based organizations and churches would
have access to emergency funding during the coronavirus pandemic.
As we repeatedly warned, if governments can shut everything down
but exclude religious groups from aid, it would mean
exterminating them.

Here are just a few other items on their agenda:

- Ensure that the Department of Education does not funnel
taxpayer funding to private or religious schools

- If religious schools receive funding, require that they "teach
curricula in accordance with national secular standards"

- Dismantle the Department of Justice Religious Liberty Task
Force

- Rescind the Department of Justice Memorandum Federal Law
Protections for Religious Liberty

- Repeal the religious exemption rule so that groups like the
Little Sisters would be forced to comply with the HHS
contraception mandate

- Appoint someone who is nonreligious to the United States
Commission on International Religious Freedom

- Avoid naming programs or initiatives or government offices with
"faith"

And there are many many more items on their 28-page wishlist.

In their letter to Biden, these anti-Catholic Democrats write:

We urge you not to underestimate the institutional strength of
what we refer to (interchangeably) in this document as the
"Christian nationalist movement" or the "religious right." This
movement is extraordinarily well-funded and well-organized, and
the manifestation of its extreme and sectarian agenda is on
constant display under the TrumpPence administration. Its
political ideology is anti-democratic and anti-scientific. It
provides constant cover for white supremacy.

This anti-religious agenda has moved beyond just taking "In God
We Trust" off our money.

And they won't just settle for shoving Christianity off the stage
of the public square.

They're accusing us of deep racial hatred and they're calling us
"anti-democratic."

And there's really no limit to the draconian measures that
politicians can unleash on those they call anti-democratic.

IMPORTANT: I know the temptation to despair is strong. This is
exactly what they want. Tens of millions of Americans are
watching the totalitarian Left try and destroy everything we hold
dear -- sometimes with the help of those in our own Church. Yet
even today some Democrats who opposed Trump have reached out to
us to say that what they see happening is scary -- and wrong.

We're going to have to stand together -- and work together --
harder than ever before.

The coming days will be difficult.

I urge you to stay strong. Don't take the bait. Violence is
never the answer -- whether by BLM, Antifa, or Q-Anon
conspiracists.

Pray for wisdom and courage.

Hold fast to the Faith.

Brian
