Abp. Viganò: Trump’s LGBT gala shows Deep State has ‘contaminated the entire political elite’

[Dawn Marie]

The Republican Party is recklessly pursuing a minority of voters who are indulging in lifestyles that are contrary to the Commandments and to the common good.

(LifeSiteNews) — A large scandal has been created, as well as discouragement, upon learning the news of the gala event hosted by President Donald J. Trump for openly homosexual supporters of the Republican Party. This endorsement of LGBT ideology is even more serious if one considers that, only two days previously, Joe Biden signed the “Respect for Marriage Act” which recognizes the legal validity of so-called homosexual marriages in the United States, in violation of the Natural Law and also the Law of God.

The Democratic Party is totally anti-Christian and obstinately determined to implement the globalist agenda of the New World Order. On the other hand, the Republican Party is recklessly pursuing a minority of voters who are indulging in lifestyles that are contrary to the Commandments and to the common good. American Catholics find themselves today in the impossible situation of being represented by a political class that is revealing itself to be completely incapable of representing and expressing Catholic convictions in moral and religious matters. This causes voters to become disaffected, which is added to electoral fraud and scandals that are emerging about media censorship and the manipulation of electoral consensus.

Up until now, certain aspects of the political platform of the Republican Party were able to be overlooked to some extent due to the much more serious threat embodied by the Democratic Party. But it is now evident that the action of the deep state has contaminated the entire political elite without distinction, even involving Donald Trump, who up until now seemed to be a source of hope for the future of the United States.

A nation that offends the Law of God cannot hope to be blessed by the Lord, and those who support sinful lifestyles ought to think of the Judgment that awaits them rather than pleasing those who are corrupt in a calculated effort to win votes. This nonchalance in political action by Republicans is no less harmful than the open opposition to the perennial Magisterium of the Church on the part of Democrats.

I urge American Catholics to pray, asking the Lord to enlighten politicians of sound principles, urging them to fight with courageous commitment for the defense of the Natural Law and the Commandments of God.

Unfortunately not surprising.  The United States has a Uni-party consisting of two sides, Democrat and Republican.  They are interested in serving their own beliefs and making as much money as possible for themselves through creation of favorable legislation.  I think that there is too much focus on national politics.  It is an illusion to place people in two camps to be controlled.  Catholics should vote based on Catholic principles and God's law.  The lesser of two evils is still evil.  Grass root changes start locally.  The most important elections are school boards, sheriff, county commissioners, city councils, and mayor, the state offices, then national offices.  If school boards were properly vetted there would be zero drag queen nonsense, or CRT, or any other communist means of division.  Sheriff's prevent imposition of unconstitutional mandates by the state, etc.  Abp Vigano is correct that "A nation that offends the Law of God cannot hope to be blessed by the Lord."  We can see that in the United States and in any country that openly mocks God.  This is a spiritual war more than physical or political.  The Rosary and traditional Catholic values and devotion are the only way to turn this around.  Please pray for the conversion of the United States, Canada, and Europe.
