CNN investigates: US Catholic Bishops live in mansions

 

At a time when the US Conference of Catholic Bishops is receiving millions of tax dollars  (not including the fact that they pay no local property taxes) to do their “Christian charity” on behalf of refugees and the ‘unaccompanied alien children’ surging across the US southern border and are caterwauling for more tax dollars, we learn that some of the US Bishops are living in priest palaces!  Hat tip: Brad

So why can’t the Catholic Church sell some of its valuable real estate instead of tapping the taxpayer for cash for their charity?  And, on top of it, consider their hubris as they lecture us about  “welcoming the stranger.”  How many angels dance on the head of a pin?  How about, how many migrants can squeeze into a Bishop’s mansion?

Cardinal Timothy Dolan has the priciest digs of all—-a Madison Avenue mansion worth $30 million.

But, here (right) is the Baltimore home of Bishop William Lori who we mentioned recently as he fussed and fumed about a new Obama ruling that might restrict the Bishops’ lifeline of federal cash by excluding them from federal contracts.

With 11,500 square feet he should easily be able to house ten or more illegal alien teens here and still have room for himself and his office.

Endnote:  I wonder where Bishop Elizondo lives?

Go here for all of our coverage of the ‘unaccompanied minors’ crisis.  For everything on the US Conference of Catholic Bishops (USCCB), search for USCCB or Catholic Charities and some other key word because I bet we have 300 posts or more here relating to their activities—good luck!

The Bishops are the largest of the original nine federal refugee/illegal alien (political activist!) contractors!
