Vice President Kamala Harris Records Pro-McAuliffe Video to Play in Over 300 Black Churches, In Violation of Fed Law for 501(c)(3) Tax-Exempt Status

[Nostra]

I believe that a church should not get involved in politics. There are positions that many may consider political ie: war that they should have positions on but partisan politics should be avoided.

Timestamp the video where he asked the audience to vote for Trump.

Should I post where he is black also?

 

[Remodeling Maidiac]

I want to be clear. You are stating that any church should be subject to tax-exempt status revocation if they are found guilty of endorsing a political candidate?

Absolutely. If we are to have laws they must be applied consistently.

So your link has nothing to do with the statute in question.

Got it.

Thanks for stopping by to make a fool of yourself, and expose once again what a racist you are by focusing on skin color.

NO MORE HATCH ACT!!!

Conservatives CAN CAMPAIGN IN CHURCHES!!!!!

Fuck yea!!!

Thanks Kamala.

Worth noting that the GOP has the so-called religious right which is anything but religious. The churches are not engaging in any political activity.

Really? Who is religious? Left-wing Catholics only? Muslims? It most certainly isn't the secular, immoral left.

Here is the statute, Stupid.

Tell us the time in your video that Pence violates the statute as Commiela Whoris abviously did.

GO!

The problem is that such direct politicking in tax-exempt churches has been unlawful for decades. Section 501(c)3 states:

Corporations, and any community chest, fund, or foundation, organized and operated exclusively for religious, charitable, scientific, testing for public safety, literary, or educational purposes, or to foster national or international amateur sports competition (but only if no part of its activities involve the provision of athletic facilities or equipment), or for the prevention of cruelty to children or animals, no part of the net earnings of which inures to the benefit of any private shareholder or individual, no substantial part of the activities of which is carrying on propaganda, or otherwise attempting, to influence legislation (except as otherwise provided in subsection (h)), and which does not participate in, or intervene in (including the publishing or distributing of statements), any political campaign on behalf of (or in opposition to) any candidate for public office.

Ok. Care to comment on this reaction in an OP talking about the Trump foundation?

The only prayer I'll offer is that you never breed.

The Left constantly tells us "no one is above the law."

But they don't apply it to millions of illegal invaders they let cross the border, they don't follow their own mandates, and they don't follow the laws on the books themselves.

When they get caught, they normally give a weak apology and blame it on a momentary lapse of judgement or recent personal hardship.

In this instance, the law breaking is likely completely intentional, as the stakes are huge in the 11/2 Virginia General Election, where we in the Commonwealth will choose our next Governor, Lieutenant Governor, Attorney General, and representatives to the House of Delegates.

It would have been lawful if she said get out and vote, but this is ridiculous.

"This year, I know that you will send Terry McAuliffe back to Richmond... This is the first year that you can vote on Sunday. So please vote after today's service."

Harris recorded a partisan video message endorsing Terry McAuliffe that will play in over 300 black churches throughout Virginia before Election Day on November 2nd. Churches are not allowed to engage in the endorsement of candidates or they risk losing their tax exempt status.

LIAR as usual!
And you can thank your GOD Tramp for his EO allowing churches to engage in politics. How conveniently you know-it-all no nothings forget!

May 4, 2017

President Trump on Thursday signed an executive order aimed at making it easier for churches to participate in politics, seeking to deliver on a campaign pledge to a community that overwhelmingly backed in him in last year’s election.

The order, which Trump unveiled with great fanfare in a Rose Garden ceremony, was cheered by some conservative Christians but seen as a disappointment by others, who said it fell short of the broader changes they wanted as part of a highly anticipated measure on religious liberties.

The order, Trump said, removes the financial threat faced by tax-exempt churches from the Internal Revenue Service when pastors speak out on behalf of political candidates.

Did Kamala Harris Just Violate Federal Law To Boost Terry McAuliffe In Virginia?

NO!
As you well know the ex-president’s executive order directs law enforcement authorities to not enforce the Johnson Amendment.

 

[edthecynic]

That bolded language is the “Johnson Amendment” prohibition.

That Tramp's May 4, 2017 EO nullifies!!!!

Hey stupid, that didn't negate the "Johnson Act", which Commiela Whoris is in violation of.

Next?

How stupid are you? No EO ever negates a Federal Statute, you blithering idiot.

Once again you complete Dumbass.....NO EO nullifies any law on the books.

Are you really that fucking stupid? Apparently you are.

McAuliffe is a racist, he's trying to put back churches out of business.

Next?

Then explain exactly how the ex-president’s executive order, which directs law enforcement authorities to not enforce the Johnson Amendment, doesn't nullify it!!!!!

Tell that to Tramp because the ex-president’s executive order directs law enforcement authorities to not enforce the Johnson Amendment.

Howsabout you show US how an EO can nullify a statute duly passed and signed.
