Wayne County community rally amid ICE raid at restaurant Newswatch 16's Emily Kress spoke with people in the Honesdale community who are shaken after watching three restaurant employees get detained.

""It's really hard to fathom that the guy making my pizza for 25 years is a gangster and a terrorist, and the person who shows up in an unmarked car wearing a mask and body armor comes to take him away is somehow the good guy," said Simon..."

If that’s what they do to a United States Senator with a question, imagine what they can do to any American that dares to speak up. We will hold this administration accountable.

Earth is likely to cross a key climate threshold in two years A new World Meteorological Organization report spells the end of the world’s most famous climate goal.

Earth will warm 1.5 degrees Celsius above preindustrial levels in just two years, new data shows. Irreversible tipping points β€” like the melting of Arctic ice sheets or the collapse of coral reefs β€” are closer at hand than previously believed.

Trump and Musk's gutting of FEMA, NOAA, and the National Weather Service will get people killed. Full stop.

β€œThat they should be the ones to welcome Pope Francis’s coffin in the basilica is because these people are those who represented the focus of his mission,” said Father Giulio Albanese, head of missionary cooperation and communications for the Vicariate of Rome. β€œThey are those who live on the peripheries, geographical and existential peripheries.”

β€œThat they should be the ones to welcome Pope Francis’s coffin in the basilica is because these people are those who represented the focus of his mission,” said Father Giulio Albanese, head of missionary cooperation and communications for the Vicariate of Rome. β€œThey are those who live on the peripheries, geographical and existential peripheries.”

The final honor guard for Pope Francis included migrants, prisoners, transgender people, the homeless and others selected by the Vicariate of Rome as a symbol of the late pope’s mission of inclusion and outreach.

It's funny how when you ask them why they think Pope Francis was "too woke" and request specific examples, they always wound up describing Christ's teachings without a hint of self-awareness.

For all the pomp, politics, and big dollars aligned with these β€˜take back control’ organizations, I can assure you there are many, many more American Catholics who support a Pontiff, who like Francis, adhere to the teachings of Christ.

Remembering Pope Francis's Climate Legacy Pope Francis served as a voice of moral clarity, speaking and writing about the social consequences of human influence on the planet.

Pope Francis was a great moral voice for climate justice and aiding the most vulnerable.

We must honor his legacy today and always by fighting the existential threat that is climate change and ensuring no one is left behind in our green future.

1. I’ve never heard of a credible research study that was completed in 6 months.
2. NIH funding cuts have caused many current studies to come to a screeching halt.
3. This guy is wasting our tax dollars to promote an unsubstantiated personal agenda.
4. We have a lot of nuts in our trees this year.
