To Olympian David Hearn’s legal team: I took the following photos and videos of the Reflecting Pool on June 19th - same day that Hearn was arrested - and I saw that the pool sealant/liner was already peeling in multiple places.
I’d be willing to testify.
Pope in Lampedusa: "It's time to recognize+affirm that religious affiliation must never become a reason for discrimination..Where there were walls of separation, Christ broke them down.There is no love of God without love of neighbour+there is no neighbour if I do not draw near."
So, to recap the Iran war
- US blew up a building full of schoolgirls
- 13 service members & many more Iranian civilians died
- global economic pain
- ending with a functional total surrender & most of the world worse off
All for a vanity war Trump promised he’d never start
No matter what your religion, the attacks on Catholicism by Trump should anger you. Congressional Republicans need to stand up for their Christian constituents and religious freedoms. @RepBrianFitz will you stand up to Trump on behalf of your Catholic constituents?
JUST IN: The President of the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops, Archbishop Paul Coakley, has issued a statement saying: “The threat of destroying a whole civilization and the intentional targeting of civilian infrastructure cannot be morally justified. … I call on President Trump to step back from the precipice of war and negotiate a just settlement for the sake of peace and before more lives are lost.” https://t.co/aebEfgniX1
Pope Leo XIV calls threat to end Iran 'truly unacceptable,' as Catholics across the ideological spectrum condemned Trump's ultimatum

Happy Feast of St. Óscar Romero.
From his final homily:
"I would like to make a special appeal to the men of the army, and specifically to the ranks of the National Guard, the police and the military. Brothers, you come from our own people. You are killing your own brother peasants when any human order to kill must be subordinate to the law of God which says, “Thou shalt not kill.” No soldier is obliged to obey an order contrary to the law of God. No one has to obey an immoral law. It is high time you recovered your consciences and obeyed your consciences rather than a sinful order. The Church, the defender of the rights of God, of the law of God, of human dignity, of the person, cannot remain silent before such an abomination. We want the government to face the fact that reforms are valueless if they are to be carried out at the cost of so much blood. In the name of God, in the name of this suffering people whose cries rise to heaven more loudly each day, I implore you, I beg you, I order you in the name of God: stop the repression!"
