CWN Editor, (Catholic Culture) - The USCCBs’ general counsel and the assistant general counsel have urged the Biden administration to rescind the interim Securing the Border regulations that were issued following a June 3 presidential proclamation... The administration’s initiative “would bar migrants from being granted asylum when US officials deem that the southern border is overwhelmed,” the Associated Press reported... The bishops’ conference’s attorneys argued that the regulations were issued “without valid authority,” that they “illegally nullify” US asylum law, and that they will likely “produce an increased number of unaccompanied children.”

By Michael Ippolito, Crisis Magazine - St. Augustine (wrote in The City of God)... "Two cities have been formed by two loves: the earthly by the love of self, even to the contempt of God; and the heavenly by the love of God, even to the contempt of self. The former, in a word, glories in itself, the latter in the Lord. For the one seeks glory from men; but the greatest glory of the other is God, the witness of our conscience"... The question is now posed to conservatives, especially Catholics: Which way shall we go? Weakening on social issues, or building a Eucharistic polity? Quo Vadis, America?
