KANSAS CITY CHRISTIAN PROTESTERS CASTIGATE ICE WITH "DOMESTIC TERRORISM" TAG FOR ENFORCING MAGA'S CRACKDOWN!!!
From our perspective, we think that denizens of the political discourse are getting a little too comfortable using that kind of language . . .
And this advocacy ignores polling that suggests Democratic Party support for MAGA mass deportations along with the inconvenient fact that Prez Trump still lags far behind former Prez Obama in deportations according to all known and verifiable government data.
Accordingly, here's the testimony from the group . . .
The United Church of Christ passed a resolution at its General Synod this week denouncing what it called "domestic terrorism" by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement and accusing the Trump administration of weaponizing the U.S. Constitution.
The denomination's criticism focused on immigration raids "carried out by ICE agents working without uniforms, wearing masks or refusing to identify themselves."
The measure was approved July 14 by a vote of 627-8, with one abstention, at the UCC's 35th biennial General Synod, which began July 11 and continued through July 15 in Kansas City, Missouri. The resolution reaffirmed a prior resolution from the 31st synod, in 2017, "On Becoming an Immigrant Welcoming Church."
