When the government has crossed the nuns, you know things are bad.

You don't mess with nuns.

Especially when that nun is a retired U.S. Army colonel and a medical doctor:

A beloved Roman Catholic nun, who is also a physician-surgeon and a retired U.S. Army colonel, is suing Washington, DC, over its COVID-19 vaccination mandate for health care workers.

Thomas More Society attorneys filed suit on March 9, 2022, in the federal United States District Court for the District of Columbia on behalf of Sister Dierdre Byrne against the district's mayor Muriel Bowser, along with LaQuandra Nesbitt – director of the district's health department – and the District of Columbia itself for their joint refusal to grant Byrne a religious exemption from vaccination.

Thomas More Society Special Counsel Christopher Ferrara shared how Byrne, who is a Roman Catholic religious Sister of the Little Workers of the Sacred Heart as well as a board-certified general surgeon and family physician, provides free medical services to the poor and the undocumented.

Sister Dierdre has tried to get an exemption from The Swamp authorities, but D.C. has refused to give anyone a religious exemption thus far.

The courts have slapped Mayor Muriel Bowser for her Covid nonsense twice, but apparently another lesson is needed:

"Judicial intervention is required once again," observed Ferrara, "This time to prevent a senseless bar on the practice of medicine by a religious sister who has devoted her career in the District of Columbia to healing the sick who cannot afford quality medical care."

There's nearly no one in D.C. who holds a candle to Sister Dierdre's accomplishments:

The Complaint details that as an American retired colonel in the U.S. Army and a member of the Little Workers of the Sacred Hearts of Jesus and Mary, Byrne has served overseas as a soldier and a missionary. She is an active sister and superior of her community in Washington, DC. She is double board-certified in family medicine and general surgery.

Here she is speaking at the 2020 GOP Convention if you want to know more about her:

Like I said, you don't mess with nuns.

Especially one as professionally qualified, sacrificially faithful, and zealous as Sister Dierdre!
