and religion can lead that movement.

Bishop Budde spoke truth to power, one brave woman.

One denomination has declared it will be a sanctuary for immigrants. Numerous Catholic dioceses in California have declared they will be sanctuaries for immigrants.

Trump can freely break the law and get away with it, what happens if he is called out for breaking the Ten Commandments? Will he sic his band of Magats on religious leaders? Not a good look for Trump.

Religion may be our salvation from Trump.
