built on lies...and non-stop misinformation...from the attached Editorial...
-------------------
Republican candidates Donald Trump and JD Vance have been spreading lies about immigrants in the United States as a cornerstone of their campaign. There is no other word that applies to the vile and easily provable untruths they spew.

The fallout from Trump's hateful rhetoric and his promise to conduct a massive deportation will persist beyond Nov. 5 no matter who wins. The former president has fashioned a narrative and planted it so successfully in the public imagination that it will impose itself on any discussion of immigration well into the future.

It is a narrative that poses a lethal threat at the heart of Catholic social teaching, an open dare to those whose faith finds Trump's language and intent repulsive.

So what are we Catholics to do? We, for whom the very substance of our faith is not in public piety or escape from the world but in compassion for the lost, the homeless, the abandoned, for those seeking refuge from state violence and poverty.

The shameful silence of our Catholic leaders has been beyond deafening.

It's not just the silence in the face of overt lying...it's the closing of eyes to basic Catholic social teaching. What's your response?
