“No religion in politics” group got $300K from Feds.

It is one of the 10 political commandments of liberalism that religion is told to stay out of politics and government.  You know the drill, the public is supposed to be quiet if taxpayer-funded art programs engage in religion bashing or that parents cannot use their school funding tax dollars to help their child attend a successful charter school if that school is a parochial institution.

Now we have Ecumenical Ministries of Oregon, which is a very liberal religious non-profit.  It was just announced that the Trump administration is cutting their funding.  Ecumenical Ministries has received $300,000 annually for immigration services for what is expected illegal migrants.  If our immigration court system is currently overwhelmed, should not the funds be spent on expanding the court system as opposed to expanding the applicant pool who likely broke Federal laws?

 

They are actually praying for government aid.

 

 

The “no religion in politics” mantra has under liberalism, become all-liberal-religion-in-politics-all-the-time-and-taxpayer-subsidized mantra.  This is what we have been witnessing under DOGE where every conceivable liberal idea has a government funding program behind it.   Religious Oregonians do not like marijuana — but their tax dollars pay for economic development grants to pot shops.  Religious Oregonians do not like drugs — but their tax dollars are spent handing out thousands of crack pipes.   Religious Oregonians do not like seeing their churches vandalized by violent protesters — but their tax dollars were used byteh Health and Human Services to give over $100,000 to a nonprofit that provided free food and drink to the Portland rioters.   Oregonians have had their tax dollars used to host “Psycho Beach Party” film nights at art museums. No tax money for their student to attend one of the best schools in the state — but tax money for Psycho Beach Party.
