All of this is bad and dumb by Barron, but I do want to bring attention to this part. Besides the outright racism of it, it his personally for me as well. My wife is Peruvian-American and is mainly Afro-Latino and Indian. One of the reasons we left our old parish is when the priest published 1/3
There's a significant plurality in the United States who think ethnic cleansing is nice actually.
Trump / Vance policies have: - driven up prices on everyday goods with tariffs -2017 & OBBB Tax bills raised actual tax rates for families w/ three or more children -Medicaid, CHIP, SNAP cuts weaken the safety net - Higher deficits & debt -Been denounced by the RCC Meanwhile Bp Barron:

Israeli Intelligence said this? Those who said to this administration that the war would be quick and easy?
Man, a murder this brutal would even make the most seasoned detective lose their lunch.
However much you think we talk about this, we don’t talk enough how our executive branch (three) is immersed in fringe online spaces and social media
