What is Government's Role: Hugh Hewitt with Mike Gallagher

There’s very little left that’s sacred in American political life. Until recently, houses of worship were one of the few exceptions.

No longer. In Minnesota, far-left agitators stormed a church service. Their stated goal was to find the pastor, whom they claimed worked for ICE.

The First Amendment protects free speech, as it should. Americans have the right to petition their government for redress of grievances. That includes the right to protest government actions that offend their conscience.

But protest must be peaceful. Once it turns violent, it becomes criminal conduct.

And when a mob breaks into a church during services to pursue a pastor, threatening peaceful worshippers, it’s something even uglier. It’s domestic terror.

What happened at the Minnesota church crossed a bright line in American life. The mob should be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.

Carol Platt Liebau: Church Protesters Cross a Bright Line

“Well, we have to ask,” Pennsylvania Governor Josh Shapiro recalls being pressed.

No, they really didn't.

In his new memoir, Shapiro tells the true story of his interaction with Kamala Harris’ presidential campaign. The vetting process, headed by former Attorney General Eric Holder, obsessed over Shapiro’s views on Israel. In fact, the vetting team demanded to know if Shapiro had ever been an agent for the Israeli government—on no evidentiary basis except that Shapiro is Jewish.

This is an ancient libel against Jews—driving the Spanish Inquisition, the pogroms in eastern Europe, the Dreyfus Affair in France and, of course Germany under the Nazis. It’s the anti-Semitic assumption that a Jew living as a Jew is suspect of disloyalty on that basis alone.

And now it’s come to America embraced by the Democrat Party itself—part of its presidential campaign in 2024.

Kamala Harris needs to answer for this repulsive development—and so does her party.

Ed Morrissey: Democrats Embrace an Ancient Libel

This past Sunday, the unthinkable happened. A leftist mob aided and abetted by former CNN host, Don Lemon, burst into an evangelical congregation at worship on the Lord's Day.

It happened as Citi's Church in St. Paul, Minnesota was worshiping this past Sunday. Angry protestors invaded the church, stopped its worship, intimidated its members, and demanded that the church denounce one of its elders who is currently serving as acting field director for US immigrations and customs enforcement, better known as ICE.

Is this where we are headed? Invading a church engaged in worship on the Lord's Day is the breaking of a bright moral line. Children and young people in this Southern Baptist congregation were traumatized. This is flatly wrong and clearly scandalous.

Federal authorities need to act and responsible citizens need to remind our fellow citizens that ICE is an official federal law enforcement agency and is to be fully respected.

This church invasion was a first. It likely won't be the last.
