1 "...they’re creating isolated ethnic enclaves across America, which seem to be causing some cultural problems..."

cultural problems? Just like the Titanic experienced some navigational issues.

2 Hmmm, Catholic Charities. Uh huh.

3 Both Catholic Charities and Lutheran Social Services have been grifting systems for years, DooDah.

Although having truly sincere and caring goals when founded, and were funded by private donations only, both have discovered the government teat and have exploited that to the fullest extent.

Check out their 990's (tax return for exempt organizations...it's a public record) sometime to see where all that money actually goes.

6 FYI: Us MN Norse Lutherans are pissed!

Unfortunately, historically the Lutherans have never had to deal with invading pIslamic hordes. As a rule they have no fracking idea what they are dealing with.

7 Mullah I'll let someone else sort out their 990.

8 Based on their current recording year with income of almost $160,000,000, it looks like only ~10% ($16M) went to 'Outreach' and the balance went to Payroll, Admin, travel and other in-house expenses.

Nice job, if you can get it.

9 Sorry, 'their current year' is in this case 2023.

I've filled out and read many 990's (for churches, clubs, etc.) and they can be daunting. It does help that I know where to usually look in them, though.

Page 9 has their total income at the bottom.

Page 10 has their total expenses at the bottom.

Still not what I'd consider overly 'outreach oriented'. At least the Red Cross only has around an 80% Payroll, Admin, travel and other in-house expenses.

The rest of it has what they received and from where, plus what they spent and to where.

Schedule 'I' is interesting.
