    Wow. FEC Chairman sits down with fringe, conspiratorial Church Militant. He blasts Catholic bishops for not endorsing candidates, says they "hide behind" their non-profit status. A brazen use of federal power to encourage Catholic leaders to endorse Trump.https://www.churchmilitant.com/news/article/exclusive-interview-trey-trainor …

        And is the Catholic Church going to respond? Is it going to tell this guy to pound salt? Not betting on it.

        That would break their tax exempt status and cost them a fortune.

        I doubt they would ever actually lose their tax exempt status.

        Still curious how this incitement to violate the law doesn't have any pushback from the @gop. @OfficeGovEthics @FEC @USCCB

        Breaking the law is ok if it gets your particular party elected. Look it up.
