“Wait, why is this news? Isn’t this the standard position for any orthodox Catholic?” Hamid asked about a tweet saying that Barrett was a trustee at a Catholic school that opposed same-sex marriage and said homosexual acts are “at odds with Scripture.”

I don’t take anything Joe says seriously. He goes with the flow and does not want Coney Barrett on the bench either. Our clergy has made it pretty clear that voting for him makes no sense as a Catholic. It makes no sense to me as a Christian in general. These softball questions he keeps getting from the press is just sickening.
