On a somewhat happy note, we learn that the Archdiocese of Milwaukee apparently has not taken a single dollar from the Feds for what is (effectively) child trafficking.
...We took the transactions summarized in Table 1 and then filtered them to include only the “UNACCOMPANIED ALIEN CHILDREN” awards, the program specifically identified by Tara Lee Rodas as being most susceptible to child sex trafficking (see TABLE 2). Catholic organizations received over $97 million for this program in 2022 and a whooping $766 million between 2008 and 2022.
Bear in mind that these figures are likely understated due to 1) the inability to include state and local government funding sources, 2) the inability to clearly identify every Catholic organization receiving awards and 3) the likelihood that Catholic organizations are receiving funds used for immigration-related activities that are not specifically coded as one of the 16 programs included in our analysis....
For the last three years, Milwaukee's 'take' was zero. The Dioceses of Madison, LaCrosse, Green Bay, and Superior were not listed in the report, implying that they, too, are clean.
You don't have to be a hard-bitten cynic to guess which Arch/Dioceses in the US are taking money, though. D.C., Chicago, and El Paso are on the list, with Baltimore and Lincoln (!!!?), among others.
