Pope met today with Pontifical Commission for Protection of Minors; meeting lasted an hour & marked a significant moment of dialogue & renewed commitment to safeguarding children & vulnerable persons. “With humility & hope, we continue the mission first entrusted by Pope Francis,” the statement read

Pope Leo: “Unity and mission are two essential aspects of the Church’s life and two priorities of the Petrine ministry. For this reason, I ask all ecclesial associations and movements to cooperate faithfully and generously with the Pope, above all in these two areas.” www.vatican.va/content/leo-...

Pope to African Missions: “Fidelity to your mission, by which your communities have over time surmounted countless difficulties from within and without, has enabled you to grow and even draw from adversity the inspiration to set out for new apostolic horizons in Africa and other parts of the world.”

There are no mudsills in America, just human beings, all created equal with certain inalienable rights. Among these rights are Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Happiness. Everyone deserves an education, so that they can stay free and pursue happiness. substack.com/home/post/p-...

This suggestion is perhaps unwise. But here is my immodest proposal for the new pontiff @fordhamcrc.bsky.social sacredheartuniversity.typepad.com/go_rebuild_m...

I used to think that vandalizing a Tesla should be a federal crime. But now I’m not so sure. by Jonathan Turley

That's right. We must now liberate ourselves from MAGA.

🚨NEW: @cbsnews.com reports ICE is arresting people who can't even legally be deported and holding them without enough food or water in a federal building BASEMENT in Los Angeles. Families dutifully attending check-ins with ICE are being arrested and held for days, forced to sleep on the floor.

I think this might be true. Opus Dei groomed Thiel and right wing Catholic Leonard Leo, are close to Opus Dei adjacent JD, and in position to push him into the presidency, should the opportunity arise.

UPDATE: The Pentagon’s watchdog is looking into whether any of Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth’s aides were asked to delete Signal messages that may have shared sensitive military information with a reporter.

“Forgach says nothing is confirmed, but he has heard rumors that it's going to be a percentage, north of 50% of parishes' reserve funds and weekly collections……Catholic Charities is among other Catholic affiliates expected to contribute.”

We have a crime syndicate in charge of our government.

All those of you advising Trump and Musk to calm down and be reasonable...what's the matter with you?

There is no way he won all 7 swing states.

Trump: No money for your Mom’s Medicaid, but $200 million for ads to promote himself. And that’s totally who Trump is and always has been.

When 15 million Americans lose their health care and plunge into personal crisis, none of them are going to give a shit about a made-for-clicks twitter fight between two billionaires arguing about who gets the bigger share of the corruption spoils.

81 years later, we honor the heroes who fought for freedom and changed the course of history

Eighty-one years later and the world is still fighting fascism and neo-Nazis ideology. #D-Day #WW2

Since Musk outed the fact that the Epstein FBI files were not released because Trump is, of course, in them, I was recommended to share this book and podcast. Michael Wolff's Fire and Fury – The Podcast EPISODE 22: JEFFREY EPSTEIN AND DONALD TRUMP podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/e...

Many Catholics are involved in so-called spiritual movements. Some of these missionary communities are controversial within the Church due to their religiously unique approaches. Their leaders come to the Pope once a year.

The only way we get rid of his malign presence is to strip him of the power of wealth.

I agree đź’Ż.

JUST IN: Following reports that Trump and Musk might speak Friday, the White House now states that there are no plans for a call today. The reversal comes as their feud escalated publicly on Thursday with threats, memes—and market implications. www.msnbc.com/morning-joe/...

I would pay to see Chancellor Merz's report to his colleagues back in Germany on this visit. They wont believe a word of it!

This morning, Democrats tried to subpoena Elon Musk so he could answer to the American people. But instead of standing with us, Republicans spent about 30 minutes scrambling to shut down debate and protect their favorite billionaire.

This lull in the first digital nuclear war—a pocket civil war in the United States—is likely caused by Musk huddling with his lawyers to determine whether Trump really can deport him as Trump’s generals (e.g., Bannon) are urging him to do. Things are getting quite serious, now.

🇨🇦 Canadians are dying laughing.

Pope Leo to officials of the Secretariat of State: Never “let this place not be clouded by ambition or rivalry; instead, let it be a true community of faith and charity.” www.vatican.va/content/leo-...

Why look. Privatizing government functions is not an unqualified good.

If you’re not enjoying the worst people in the world tearing each other apart? How sad for you.

Prayer is a vital part of the Christian life, but so is action, living in the world; prayer is meant to help us in our lives, to help us live them out, not replace them: www.patheos.com/blogs/henryk... #Prayer #Catholic #Praxis

Honestly, on top of the political problem, if there are adults left in the White House -- BIG IF -- Elon's meltdown really does pose very complex NatSec issues.

Pfingsten ist das Hochfest des Heiligen Geistes. Deshalb gibt es an diesem Wochenende nach dem Vorbild der Loretto-Gemeinschaft im ganzen deutschsprachigen Raum Pfingstfestivals, die sich vor allem an Jugendliche richten - auch in Münster. Ich habe für „Kirche+Leben“ analysiert, was dahintersteckt.
