Tried and true organizing ploy.

Forty-two caravan migrants broke into the United and were arrested on Sunday, while organizers pushed women and children to the front of the melee, a top border patrol agent told CNN.

I heard about this in the Roosevelt Road riots in the summer of ’66, told by eyewitness friends in the black community. The smart boys heaved rocks over the heads of teen-agers and younger children in rows facing the police.

Cardinal C of Chi is one you would ordinarily pick for this uber-important job?

ROME, November 23, 2018 (LifeSiteNews) — Pope Francis has named Cardinal Blase Cupich of Chicago to a four-member organizing committee for next February’s Vatican summit on clerical sexual abuse.

The appointment is raising concerns because Cardinal Cupich has notably dismissed Archbishop Viganò’s testimony on the McCarrick abuse cover-up as a mere “rabbit hole” distracting the Church, believes that homosexuality is not a significant contributing factor in the abuse of minors (despite statistics showing otherwise), and has defended the Vatican postponing U.S. bishops from voting on measures to prevent abuse cover-up.

Well, as for the last, wouldn’t he prefer leaving it to the big show, where he’s to be a big shot, as opposed to doing something in Baltimore, for the group that voted him down as prexy last time around?

He got their vote of no-confidence months ago. Why should he build them up now?

As for the chickencoop part, he’s been a wild man in Chi about certain conservative leaders but has no history of particular expertise or leadership in the dreadful clergy-abuse situation.

To keep in mind as you read about the news today.

A group of about 100 people trying to illegally cross the border Sunday near the San Ysidro port of entry threw rocks and bottles at U.S. Border Patrol agents, who responded by using pepper spray and other means to force the crowd back into Mexico, federal officials said.

The incident has raised concerns among advocates on both sides of the immigration debate, as well as Border Patrol representatives.
