🚨 The SSPX leaders should have told the truth when the liturgy asked for the papal mandate by saying:
“No, we don't have an apostolic mandate. We are doing this against the expressed will of Pope Leo because we are right and he is wrong.”
Instead, they read from a rolled parchment with a red ribbon, as if it were a papal ecclesial decree from
Rome.
There is now a massive wave of disapproval from Catholics who would otherwise be sympathetic to the SSPX, because this “pseudo-mandate” comes off as a dishonest stunt performed during the liturgy. This liturgical innovation is clearly “not traditional.”

It's why the Bears may leave Chicago.
It's also why @SenSanders and I introduced the Home Team Act — requiring team owners to offer locals the chance to buy a team before moving it away.
Pope Leo XIV: “It is, therefore, not enough to state simply that men and women have equal dignity and rights; it is necessary that this be reflected in concrete decisions, such as in laws, access to employment, education, social and political responsibilities, and the way society listens to and values women’s contributions. As long as this gap persists, we cannot say that society truly and fully recognizes that women have the same dignity as men.”

We cannot allow conspiracy theorists to undermine proven science.
Republicans can’t win on their policies, so they are trying to dodge accountability by rewriting the rules. These lawmakers are going out of their way to silence the will of the people and deliberately undermine our democracy.
