House Speaker Nancy Pelosi's recent run-in with San Francisco Archbishop Salvatore Cordileone is only the latest in a long line of clashes she has had with U.S. bishops.

ANTI-CATHOLIC INVECTIVE SPAWNS VIOLENCE

By |2022-07-27T12:54:27-04:00|Categories: Catalyst, Features|Tags: |

The recent spate of Catholic churches that have been vandalized, as well as the bombing of pro-life crisis pregnancy centers (many of which are run by Catholics), are not a coincidence.

BIDEN AND PELOSI SILENT ON ANTI-CATHOLICISM

By |2022-07-27T12:54:27-04:00|Categories: Catalyst, Features|Tags: |

Given the rash of attacks on Catholics and Catholic Churches, it would be reasonable to expect that they would condemn these acts of anti-Catholicism. Yet neither has said a word. It is not as though they are indifferent to bigotry—they are quick to [...]
