When thousands rallied in the nation's capital Dec. 12 with a conviction that the Nov. 3 election had been stolen from President Donald Trump, among those headlining the event were a Texas Catholic bishop, a former papal nuncio to the U.S., several priests and a prominent Catholic pro-life leader.
Four days later, the conservative advocacy organization Catholic Vote sent out an email under the headline "President-Suspect," saying that while Joe Biden is the president-elect "on paper … that means nothing until the votes cast by the electoral college are opened by a joint session of Congress on January 6."
