This week on “Fox News Sunday,” Republican presidential candidate former Hewlett-Packard CEO Carly Fiorina responded to the woman of ABC’s “The View,” who attacked her looks by saying they did so because, “There is nothing more threatening to the liberal media in general and Hillary Clinton in particular than a conservative woman.” Fiorina said, “I was on ‘The View’ several months ago.

As well as clearing out pews, the altar, and the pulpit to make space for beds and kitchens, the church is also clearing out Christian symbols. This move has been calculated to make the migrants feel more welcome in their new home, reports The Express. The fine Wilhelmine church, which was consecrated
