The Patrick Madrid Show: January 20, 2026 – Hour 3

Patrick opens the lines to questions about immigration, law, guns in churches, and what it means to uphold faith amid political conflict. He weighs justice against mercy, weighs personal responsibility for safety with the call to peace, and refuses to skirt the tension between Catholic teaching and party platforms.

  • German (email) – Immigration, Minnesota, and Our Bishops (00:35)
  • George – I’m opposed to weapons in church. (08:20)
  • Mark – I am defending the Trump administration. They knew that this would blow up. If people don’t realize that they are naive. (16:18)
  • Patsy – I am calling in regard to what you all are saying. I don’t think God would order anyone to shoot to kill. I don’t think supporting Trump is right. (21:09)
  • Nick – We have the March for Life coming up and we can show the world what a peaceful protest is like. (26:59)
  • Joe – Can you be a Catholic in good standing and vote for Democrats who support abortion, transgender and other things contrary to the Catholic faith? (30:14)
  • Audio: President Clinton and President Obama – “we are a nation of immigrants and a nation of laws” (37:52)
  • Sarah – I am disappointed in you for not answering this guy’s question. You can’t be a Democrat and Catholic at same time if you want to be true to faith. (41:19)
  • Will – People keep telling you that you don’t let you talk when they come up with 6-8 different things! I think Patsy is an agitator. Going after Patrick like protestors going after ICE agents. (46:17)
  • Tammy – Religious freedom is important when it comes to being prolife. (49:02)
