The Easter Expulsion at Walter Reed HospitalThe Biden administration turned Holy Week into Hell Week for Catholic servicemembers at Walter Reed National Military Medical Center by evicting Catholic priests from their facility.“It is a mistake, even heresy,” warned St. Francis de Sales, to “banish the devout life from the company of soldiers.” But the Biden administration did just that and turned Holy Week into Hell Week for Catholic servicemembers at Walter Reed National Military Medical Center.

Biden arrived for his physical around 9:15 a.m. The White House will publicly release a written summary of the president’s physical later in the day after it is completed, the press office said.

Former White House press secretary Stephanie Girsham in a new book sheds light on former President Trump’s mysterious visit to Walter Reed National Military Medical Center in November 2019, suggesting that the president was undergoing a colonoscopy.

Bush did when he underwent a colonoscopy 2002, briefly passing powers to then-Vice President Dick Cheney. Grisham also said...
