This week, news broke that the Biden administration was going to block the Knights of Columbus from holding a Memorial Day Mass at a cemetery in Virginia.
Not a good look.
The Biden regime won't allow Catholic mass. Yes, you heard me right.

The post reads:
The Biden regime won't allow Catholic mass. Yes, you heard me right.For 60+ years, the Knights of Columbus, a Catholic fraternity, have held a Memorial Day mass at the Poplar Grove National Cemetery in Virginia.
However, this year they face a significant obstacle as the National Park Service (NPS) has labeled the religious service as a 'demonstration,' leading to its prohibition at the Petersburg site.
The most Catholic president, ever. Or something.
It's amazing how the Left can call people blocking roadways, harassing Jews on college campuses, and rioting in the streets peaceful protesters, but the Knights of Columbus holding a Mass at a cemetery on Memorial Day is an intolerable 'demonstration.'
Realize where we are.
Thankfully, Virginia AG Jason Miyares got involved and, after threatening a lawsuit, the administration backed down.
Within hours of my filing, the Biden Administration reversed course and will now allow the Knights of Columbus to gather at the Poplar Grove National Cemetery this Memorial Day.

It’s shameful that they were denied in the first place. https://t.co/QX9vVyFQ2q
The Biden administration backpedaled from banning a Catholic men’s group from holding a Memorial Day Mass at a national veterans’ cemetery in Virginia after the state’s attorney general intervened.
Virginia Attorney General Jason Miyares, a Republican, announced Thursday that the National Park Service had changed its mind over blocking Knights of Columbus Council 694 in Petersburg from conducting a Mass on Monday inside the Poplar Grove National Cemetery.
The Biden administration did so after Miyares’ office joined a lawsuit against the NPS that claimed the ban was discriminatory.
Good.
Democrats continually attack religious groups, but if Black Lives Matter wanted to hold a protest, Biden would offer to speak at it.

They tell you exactly who they are, and what they prioritize.
Watch out for the NPS.

Used to be an amazing organization.
Now, woke, woke, woke.
Very woke.
And woke ruins everything it touches.

Perfection.
The fact that we had to fight these sOB’s is a disgrace! But they know if they get re-elected they will never have to hear from us again. https://t.co/bwhyTtL1NB

We're sure the decision to back down on this has a lot to do with the fact it's an election year.
Look what the fake Catholic president tried to do. https://t.co/eba1luCF1t

So devout.
They should have just showed up and called it a protest … that’s what the malcontents did across campuses and federal property across this country😉 https://t.co/0W1Zup3vEY

But it's (D)ifferent when they do it.
This is even past O'Biden's normally moronic behavior. He himself 'is a Catholic' more like Peter Pan

If he's a Catholic, this writer is the Queen of England.
Just a reminder that @POTUS claims to be #Catholic, yet his administration tried to ban a Catholic Mass that has 60 years of history. Biden admin backs down after attempting to ban Catholic group from holding Mass at national cemetery https://t.co/81frOtUKDz via @Not_the_Bee

For 60 years, this wasn't a 'demonstration', and now -- suddenly -- it is.
