Then-President Donald Trump holds up a Bible outside of St John’s Episcopal Church across Lafayette Park in Washington on June 1, 2020. Over 15,000 people have signed a petition accusing Trump of violating Christian values with his immigration policies.

Newsweek reached out to Trump’s transition team via email, and Faithful America via an online form, for comment Wednesday morning. TOP VIDEOS The video player is currently playing an ad.

The president-elect is vowing to take his hard-line immigration stance to the next level in his second term, promising mass deportations of immigrants who are in the U.S. illegally. Trump’s immigration policies in his first term, including actions that separated thousands of migrant parents from their children at the U.S.-Mexico border, were criticized at the time for being inhumane.

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address

I guess they have never heard of the separation of church and state.  Secondly, at least he doesn't share communist values as does the current administration. :nono:

Faithful America is just another in a long line of leftist front organizations masquerading as Christian.
Quote
Faithful America is the largest online community of Christians putting faith into action for love and social justice. Our members -- Catholic, Protestant, Exvangelical, and more -- are sick of sitting by quietly while Jesus' message of good news is hijacked by the religious right to serve a hateful political agenda. We're organizing the faithful to challenge Christian nationalism and white supremacy and to renew the church's prophetic role in building a more free and just society.
Scratch one of these groups' finances, and you'll likely find the gnarled fingers of Soros and his ilk. Megan Basham wrote about these snakes in her book Shepherds for Sale, which I'd recommend to all churchgoers here.
The abnormal is not the normal just because it is prevalent.

I look at the petition this way, we have the names of 15K people who we can drop an illegal/ illegal family with and have them be financially responsible for.
