Woe to those who manipulate religion and the very name of God for their own military, economic, and political gain, dragging that which is sacred into darkness and filth. #ApostolicJourney#Cameroon https://t.co/bKteFZ3iWE
NEW: Pope Leo XIV’s close ally Cardinal Robert McElroy received a standing ovation at the end of his homily, where he called on Catholics to take up civic action to help end the “immoral” war against Iran.
“When we leave this church tonight, we must move beyond prayer. As citizens and believers in this democracy that we cherish so deeply, we must advocate for peace with our representatives and leaders.
“It is not enough to say we have prayed. We must also act. For it is very possible that the negotiations will fail because of recalcitrance on both sides, and the president will move to re-enter this immoral war.
“At that critical juncture, as disciples of Jesus Christ called to be peacemakers in the world, we must answer vocally and in unison:
“No. Not in our name. Not at this moment. Not with our country.”
BREAKING: Pope Leo XIV declares the Iran War is “unjust” and “is not solving anything.”
After suggesting Trump is committing war crimes by targeting civilian infrastructure, he called on Americans to contact Congress to help end the war.
Death is always lurking. We see it in violence, in the wounds of the world, in the cry of pain that rises from every corner because of the abuses that crush the weakest among us, because of the idolatry of profit that plunders the earth’s resources, because of the violence of war that kills and destroys. #Easter
The cross is part of the mission. The imperialist occupation of the world is disrupted from within; the violence that until now has been the law is unmasked. The poor, imprisoned, and rejected Messiah descends into the darkness of death, yet in so doing He brings a new creation to light. #HolyThursday
Arkansas pitcher James DeCremer was "sick as a dog" but still paced the Razorbacks' second 1-hitter in three games Wednesday, a 1-0 victory over Arkansas State.

Fastball is lively for DeCremer. 94-96 consistently, and his strikeouts have come on a low 80s curveball. Mixed in at least a couple of changeups, as well. 35 pitches, 24 strikes
James DeCremer was solid out of the pen for (@RazorbackBSB). Two shutout innings. Mostly CB, SI, CH. The latter two tunneled extremely well.
rSo // ‘26 elig.

Pope Leo XIV in a very practical Lenten Message to all Christians says:
“I would like to invite you to a very practical and frequently unappreciated form of abstinence: that of refraining from words that offend and hurt our neighbor. Let us begin by disarming our language, avoiding harsh words and rash judgement, refraining from slander and speaking ill of those who are not present and cannot defend themselves. Instead, let us strive to measure our words and cultivate kindness and respect in our families, among our friends, at work, on social media, in political debates, in the media and in Christian communities. In this way, words of hatred will give way to words of hope and peace.”

A crypto bro bought a Puerto Rican hospital. Two years later, it suddenly closed.
BUDPR leader Calvin Yohannan breaks down how this is par for the course among "investors" in Puerto Rico, who cost the island millions of dollars and leave communities worse off.
It fucking kills me that none of these kids is going to get the mandatory mourning, the required moments of silence, the Ezra Klein eulogies, the massive federal government policy response, of the guy who said mass shootings are just the price you pay for freedom.
