Bill Donohue When men with fake female breasts appeared half naked on the White House South Lawn on June 10, President Biden’s press secretary, Karine Jean-Pierre, said the crude stunt—in full view of children—“was not a normal thing that has happened under this administration.” It took her three days to say this. While it may not [...]
Bill Donohue Today we are contacting all 30 owners of Major League Baseball (MLB) imploring them not to repeat the Dodgers stunt; we are also contacting Rob Manfred, the Commissioner of MLB. Here is the text of my remarks: Dear MLB owner: The decision by the Los Angeles Dodgers to invite, disinvite, and reinvite a vile [...]
Bill Donohue Over the past several weeks, the Catholic League blanketed Los Angeles notables asking them to spread the word to their constituents not to attend the “Pride Night” game on June 16 that was slated to honor the Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence, a viciously anti-Catholic group of drag queens. We also took out 50 radio [...]
Bill Donohue The Los Angeles Dodgers has a code of conduct for fans that is being violated not only by some attendees, but by the team itself. To be specific, giving an award tonight to the Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence is an expressed violation of this policy. Among the 19 rules governing fan behavior, the last [...]
Bill Donohue It all began May 16. That was the day we launched a massive email campaign asking our followers to contact Rob Manfred, the Commissioner of Major League Baseball, protesting the decision by the Los Angeles Dodgers to honor the Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence on “Pride Night” June 16. The very next day, the Dodgers [...]

The Catholic Daughters of America is comprised of over 60,000 [...]
Bill Donohue Father’s Day can be problematic for those in unusual circumstances. What would you say about a man who fathered a child out-of-wedlock and then denied paternity—until forced to take a DNA test that proved the child is his? What would you say about the same man who to this day has yet to even [...]
Bill Donohue The blowback against Bud Light and Target for getting into bed with radical transgender activists should have persuaded major corporations not to go there. But somehow Kellogg’s never got the memo. Maybe it will now. Kellogg’s wants children to understand that transgenderism is a family-friendly ideology. Why else would it feature “Tony the Tiger”—Mr. [...]
Bill Donohue Our campaign against the Dodgers continues today with an appeal to non-Catholic leaders in the Los Angeles area. We are asking 114 of the most prominent members of the following religious communities to join our campaign: Evangelical Protestants, Mormons, Muslims and Orthodox Jews. We are sending them a copy of our report on the [...]
Bill Donohue Major League Baseball (MLB) is okay with one of its teams honoring a vile anti-Catholic group of drag queen bigots, but it is not okay with a pitcher who objects to the radical LGBT agenda.
