NEW YORK, NEW YORK - MAY 21: Social distancing protections are displayed before a press conference with the Archbishop of New York, Cardinal Timothy Dolan, at Our Saviour Parish in Manhattan regarding the reopening of churches in the archdiocese amid the coronavirus pandemic on May 21, 2020 in New York City. Dolan, who was joined by other faith leaders at the news conference, outlined preparations for the gradual reopening of 288 churches in the New York City area. Some of the changes at churches will include no distribution of Holy Communion, a distribution of masks, the regular regularly disinfection of pews and signage at entrance doors instructing anyone with fever or flu-like symptoms not to enter the church. Maximum occupancy will be 25% of capacity and hand sanitizer will be available at the entrance of the church. (Photo by Spencer Platt/Getty Images)

On Thursday’s Mark Levin Show, Ben Ferguson fills in for Mark. We now live in a country where Democrats want open borders and closed churches. Churches are being barricaded in by the Chicago government. Pastors are up in arms over the injustice and the assault on religious freedom. Citizens need spiritual guidance now more than ever – this has gone way too far. President Trump weighed in on this issue saying that if it’s not resolved he’d take a more active approach to advocate for the reopening of churches. Then, Sen Tom Cotton penned a letter to the Dept. of Justice for improper use of $80 million in funds from the federal payroll protection program (PPP) which was designated for small businesses to stay afloat. Planned Parenthood exceeded the cap on employees to qualify for the PPP funds under the CARES Act. Later the US District Court has required that Circuit Court Judge Emmett Sullivan dismiss the case since the DOJ has dropped the charges against General Flynn.
