Pope Leo calls for news agencies to stand as bulwark against "post-truths," lies and manipulation
Pope Leo XIV has encouraged international news agencies to stand firm as a bulwark against the "ancient art of lying" and manipulation.
Pope Leo quotes Hannah Arendt:
βThe ideal subject of totalitarian rule is not the convinced Nazi or the convinced Communist, but people for whom the distinction between fact and fiction and the distinction between true and false no longer exist."

Trump Has a Different Plan to Oust Maduro This Time Around
Venezuelaβs leader has survived the US presidentβs wrath before.
In 2019, Trump was not subtle about his, ultimately unsuccessful, attempts to push Venezuelan Dictator Nicolas Maduro out of power.
Now, the plan to oust Maduro is tied to Trumpβs ongoing fight against drug cartels, writes our @nahaltoosi.bsky.social.

Nachrichten, die hΓ€ufiger verbreitet werden sollten: Die AfD hat heute zwei Wahlen um RathΓ€user im Osten verloren. In #Wolmirstedt (Sachsen-Anhalt) und #MeiΓen (Sachsen) setzten sich jeweils andere Kandidaten im 1. Wahlgang durch. Die AfD ist schlagbar. Der Nimbus der Unbesiegbarkeit ist Taktik.

Last night's attacks again show Russia bent on more suffering and the annihilation of Ukraine. Devastating to see children among innocent victims harmed and killed. My thoughts are with the families today.
We need the strongest international pressure on Russia to stop this war.

Photograph of a mural painted on an apartment building. The painting is of a woman with a background of blue sky, that matches the color of the actual sky, creating an optical illusion that the building is transparent.
