NEW: The Trump-Vance White House has falsely accused an ally of Pope Leo — Sr. Norma Pimentel — of illegal activity tied to migrant aid, and cut off all federal funding to Catholic Charities in Texas.

Church leaders say it’s a targeted, political reprisal against Pope Leo and the Catholic Church.
Trump-Vance White House Targets Beloved Nun in Texas, Retaliates Against Catholic Charities
Catholic Charities of the Rio Grande Valley — praised by Pope Leo as an “agent of hope” — now faces a six-year federal funding ban. Church leaders say it’s a vendetta by the Trump-Vance White House.

In case you ever needed proof that the Heritage Foundation is not a conservative organization, here we have them cheering on the Federal Government threatening to strip all funding from a state that does not make political decisions the President likes. Any true conservative would be howling.
The US government is now a mafia organization.

Absolutely strong evidence of vindictive prosecution. Every failed attempt improves James’ eventual motion to dismiss, which was already ludicrously historically strong.
Assuming they eventually find people willing to convict, can the fact so many grand juries rejected the charges, yet, they kept being brought, be used as evidence of malicious prosecution?

This isn't normal, is it? For the govt. to just keep trying?

I've been saying this for a year now: the Democrats have missed a gigantic political opportunity--and, at this point, have failed in an ethical obligation--to create a shadow-government health department that dispenses medically accurate information, guidance, and advice.

Democrats swept every race yesterday by a bigger margin than expected, and the press story is apparently "Dems did well but there is still a lot to worry about." Needless to say that this is not how a massive Republican shift would be covered.
