    'Catholic Relief Services is bracing for massive cuts — as much as 50%
    this year — because of draconian reductions in U.S. foreign assistance
    ordered by the Trump administration, according to an internal email from
    the chief executive of the international relief organization.

    CRS is the top recipient of funds from the U.S. Agency for International
    Development, known as USAID, which the Trump administration has targeted
    with a spending freeze, office closure and extensive staff cuts this
    week.

    Catholic Relief Services should not be receiving government money.

    Why not? You support government funding to parochial schools and also to other private charities. Why not the papists?

    CRS does not do religion.

    Actually I support not taxing people the school tax for those who put
    their children in religious schools. They're already paying the bill.

    But that would make too much sense for you.
