Drudge Retort: The Other Side of the News
Thursday, January 30, 2025

A Michigan priest with the Anglican Catholic church has been removed from his position for making what appears to be a Nazi salute. Calvin Robinson, who held the title of priest-in-charge at St Paul's Anglican Catholic church in Grand Rapids, Michigan, performed the gesture at the end of a 25 January speech at the National Pro-Life Summit in Washington DC. The priest appeared to quote Elon Musk, saying, "My heart goes out to you," before mimicking his straight-arm motion. According to a statement on the Anglican Catholic church's website, Robinson's license in the church was subsequently revoked and he will no longer serve as a priest. "We believe that those who mimic the Nazi salute, even as a joke or an attempt to troll their opponents, trivialize the horror of the Holocaust and diminish the sacrifice of those who fought against its perpetrators," the statement reads.

Oh Grand Rapids, ya that fits. A lot of extreme far right folks around the area. I would call it a MAGA hotbed despite all the liberals flocking to the area.
