I still remember an interview on FNC years back (likely 1st Trump term) where the hosts were interviewing a Roman Catholic priest from NYC. The topic was illegal immigration. The priest said every human being has the God-given right to immigrate to a new country. What they don't have is the God-given right to be let into whatever country they want to go to. That has stuck with me to this day.

There must be some sort of law to keep unvetted people from just walking over the border.
The IS that law. The people who broke hat law need to be sent back.

No country on earth can withstand an invasion of the other countries unwanted.
Certainly we pay enough in Foreign aid to support these people, but the foreign countries steal it and misuse it.
Are we responsible for that? No.
We can absorb a certain number and do all we can to see that they become Americans.
Those who do not bother to learn our language and are not interested in being an American? We do not need.
You demonstrate on our streets carrying the flag of the country that you ran away from and your ass needs to be taken off the street right then and sent back. Not tomorrow or the next day. That day.

The Marxist Pope said something similar

I don't expect my government or President to follow Christian values.

When they order planes to bomb Hamas or Hezbollah straight to hell - I don't wave my hand and say What Would Jesus Do?
And when they do whateever is necessary against the brutal drug cartels - I don't plead for mercy on their behalf.

I hate - hate - being lectured about Christian values from a group of persons who typically detest Christian values on a daily basis, unless it supports what they already believe.

On a similar note -

The Bible says to honor your earthly leaders and to pray for them - and when that was written - those leaders were some of the most evil men to ever rule the Roman Empire. God does not force people to be moral - but he does raise and destroy leaders whose ends don't meet his. The worst these men can do is destroy your body. If eternity awaits you, that's nothing at all.

I don't see anything wrong with Christians trying to effect change when they can. But it is not the goal of the Christian life to transform this world into a paradise on Earth - it makes it very clear who is the prince of this world - and who rules the next. It will NEVER be heaven on earth - but you can try. Paul made us of his rights as a Roman citizen - to appeal to the Emperor - to be removed from prison when he was thrown in and beaten without a trial. Jesus paid the "temple tax". (I love how he did it - he told his disciple to throw a line in the water, hook a fish and look in the fish's mouth, and there will be a coin EXACTLY matching the tax - just to show them - this is a stupid tax and I will prove it to you).

Bottom line - as a Christian, you live quietly, work with your hands, live a quiet life so no one can accuse you of anything.

The left doesn't give a damn about this - because they don't worship God, they worship themselves. If you follow God, every once in a while you're going to come across something you don't want to follow - but you DO. Not so with people who worship themselves - they never fail to admonish others IF IT AGREES WITH THEM. When it doesn't, it's just a bunch of hooey. Basically, they don't follow God, they place themselves above God and quote him if they're on the same page.
