This just keeps getting better.

They are so good at this.

Pope Leo calls for ‘deep reflection’ about treatment of detained migrants in U.S. “Many people who have lived for years and years and years, never causing problems, have been deeply affected by what is going on right now,” Chicago-born pope says.

"Pope Leo said Scripture emphasizes the question that will be posed at the end of the world:

March 13 2025 was my first introduction to Zohran Mamdani

Instant fan 💯

Aside from absolutely everything else having to do with them, I am ecstatic to see the end of Giuliani, whose name I mistyped every freaking time, and the arrival of Mamdani, whose name is crazy easy to type.

This really hasn’t gotten enough attention this week.

LMAO he's trying to be Mamdani!
