Statement of Cardinal Blase J. Cupich, archbishop of Chicago, on Standing with Immigrants
Oct. 21, 2025
My dear brothers and sisters, today I speak to you as your shepherd, but also as a fellow pilgrim who shares the pain of many of our immigrant communities. Families are being torn apart. Children are left in fear, and communities are shaken by immigration raids and detentions. These actions wound the soul of our city. Let me be clear. The Church stands with migrants.
We stand with a mother who crosses borders to feed her children. We stand with the father who labors in silence to build a better future. We stand with the young person who dreams of safety and a better future. Our parishes and schools will not turn away those who seek comfort, and we will not be silent when dignity is denied in the enforcement of the law, it is essential that we respect the dignity of every human being.
Now I want to say something directly to those immigrants without documents. Most of you have been here for years. You have worked hard. You have raised families. You have contributed to this nation. You have earned our respect. As the Archbishop of Chicago, I will insist that you be treated with dignity. Americans should not forget that we all come from immigrant families.
You are our brothers and sisters. We stand with you.
God bless you all.
NEW: Cardinal Blase Cupich, the Archbishop of Chicago, has issued a new statement declaring that Chicago "communities are shaken by immigration raids and detentions. These actions wound the soul of our city. Let me be clear. The Church stands with migrants."

Yeah, that's a solid take. They r more fun than good at the moment. But, fans want fun with the potential to be good when you've had a dry 15 years. & they have it!
I was pretty high on both Dart and Cam going into the draft, that probably gives me more faith in that core, as a non-fan, than most.

Oh, ok gotcha. The Giants actually makes a little bit of sense. That division is bad. And it's looking like Dart, Skattebo, Nabers, Burns, Thibodeaux, and Carter is gonna be a nice core for them.

We will never fully defeat fascism if we can't grapple with the fact that police are never held accountable. Very few people and certainly fewer politicians are honest about policing in this country. And that has led us to where we are now with ICE.
