Pope Leo Rebukes U.S. Immigration Policy, Condemns ‘Inhuman Treatment Of Immigrants’ - America's Voice Following the death of Pope Francis last April, many Catholics and observers in the United States and around the world wondered if his successor would be as vocal as the late pontiff on the issues tha...

new from @tusk81.bsky.social:

In remarks this past week, Pope Leo XIV rebuked the anti-immigrant policies of the United States government, saying that the “inhuman treatment of immigrants” are not in line with the teachings of the Church.

I’m in Ohio, so I’ve bern asked to verify my age with some random-ass third party company by giving them my identity information and I’ll just go without direct messaging. K thanx bye.

THIS IS NOT NORMAL

I just realized it's Friday and got so happy because that means my True Love will be home with me for the next two days! After 26 years, he's still the person I want to hang out with the most. ❤

Just went to get my hair cut at a new place, which always makes me feel trepidatious, to put it mildly. I was so happy to discover my stylist wasn't a small-talker. Tipped him 50%. #introvert #SilenceIsSoUnderrated #IDontEvenCareAboutTheCut

Dear Republicans,

Reeeeeeeaaaaaally looking forward to the first time a liberal president uses the powers you want that office to have.

Love and kisses,
Lissa

The talking points have been issued and are being distributed.

Wanted to see how the anti-war MAGAs were taking the news and now they’re parroting pro war propaganda. Bc of course they are.

Kristi L. Noem Harvard flouted the rules. Now, it’s getting a hard lesson.

Jeff Bezos: "We are going to be writing every day in support and defense of two pillars: personal liberties and free markets."

Today's Washington Post opinion page:

RUBIO: “we have nothing to do with this”
TRUMP: “we did this”

GABBARD: “Iran not pursuing a weapon”
TRUMP: “I don’t care what she says”

VANCE: “peace through strength”
TRUMP: “actually nah, regime change”

Leadership! 🫡

I…do not think we get to call it an anomaly anymore

If I heard NPR correctly, the CDC is no longer recommending vaccines for anyone. Which means health insurance is no longer compelled to cover it. Which means that if you want any vaccine, you will have to pay for it out of pocket, saving the health insurance industry BILLIONS OF DOLLARS. #ClassWar

To paraphrase a statement I saw online, "Everyone agrees that factories should come back to the US. But no one wants their kids to work in a factory."

Gosh, why could that possibly be? I mean, if they believe they're on the side of good and on the side of justice, they should be PROUD to show their faces and have their name attached to their deeds. Wow, so strange, huh?

P.T. Barnum used signs saying "To the Egress" which of course led one to exit his museum and thin out the crowds a bit.

This trend of anti-intellectualism also includes the dilution of the museum. What is an ice cream museum? Balloon Museum? There's too many museums without real art or historical pieces. Just wall to wall gifs and digital screens.

Emmanuel Macron waxwork stolen from French museum by activists A waxwork figure of French President Emmanuel Macron has been stolen from a museum in Paris by environmental activists who disguised themselves as employees. Greenpeace activists entered the Grevin Museum posing as tourists before changing their clothes, covering the statue with a blanket and taking it out through an emergency exit, a police source told French news agency AFP. The waxwork later reappeared outside the Russian embassy, where activists denounced Macron's attitude towards French companies that continue to do business with Russia since its full-scale invasion of Ukraine.

A person asks what eould have happened if Henry VIII died in his jousting accident of 1536. “Would Anne Boleyn have become queer?” Response: “There’s gotta be a fanfic about this and if not, maybe I should write one.

Every day, we hear the term "massive data breach" and we're still cheerfully handing over all of our financials and even our DNA to private companies.

Trump claims he has ordered the DOJ reopen Alcatraz to house America's worst criminals.

It's like he's competing with himself to come up with even dumber ideas every week.

A zippered pouch labeled "Lissa's Incredibly Useful Strap of Unknown Purpose."

When we were cleaned the garage and put stuff onto a new storage rack, True Love picked up a woven strap, & he was going to throw it away. I said, “Oh no don’t throw that out. It might go to something important.”

True Love said OK and made a pouch for it.

I just saw how he labeled it.😂

They called him Sleepy Joe because you could actually sleep at night without worrying you'd wake up and find your 401K gone.

It’s like Watergate, only in this version Nixon directly mails the tapes to Woodward and Bernstein
