Pope Leo XIV today: "When forgiving seems like a defeat, forgive."

Beware of any Christian movement that acts as though the world is full of enemies to be destroyed rather than full of neighbors to be loved.

Maybe you saw Trump's so desperate he's begging Putin for diesel. But listen to this: At the very same time, the White House is brokering the sale of billions in Russian energy assets to people who fund the Trump family and the Trump campaign.

🇮🇷 Jewish community in Isfahan, Iran still praying and living as Jews.

For more than 2,700 years.

They maintain synagogues, practice openly, and even hold a seat in parliament.

Yet almost none of this is ever shown.

Jews have lived outside of Israel for millennia.

They still do.

Since Trump’s election:

-Musk got $680 billion richer
-Musk became the 1st trillionaire
-SpaceX got $10 billion in federal contracts
-Tesla & SpaceX paid $0 in federal income taxes

Now, Musk’s spending $442 million to keep Republicans in control of Congress.

Gee, I wonder why?

Pope Leo XIV celebrated Mass at noon on Friday in the room set up on the 10th floor of Gemelli Hospital, according to the Holy See Press Office.

Several members of Gemelli's medical and nursing staff attended the Mass, along with members of the Vatican City State Gendarmerie Corps.

"In his homily, the Pope thanked all the staff—doctors, nurses, and orderlies—for the work they do every day caring for patients in their frailty, and especially for what they have done and continue to do for him," read the statement.

Zionists claim that criticizing Israel or opposing Zionism is antisemitic.

Meanwhile, tens of thousands of Orthodox Jews gather in New York to declare that Zionism violates the Jewish faith and does not represent Judaism.

Remember this: Some children may be unplanned by their parents, but they are not unplanned by God. ALL OF US HAVE A PURPOSE!

The Salve Regina chanted in Latin at the conclusion of the Most Holy Rosary for the good health of Pope Leo XIV in the Chapel of St. John Paul II of the Gemelli University Hospital.

[Christopher Hale @ChristopherHale]

“Let us pray for Leo, our Pope.” Those words open the Oremus pro Pontifice, a chant drawn from Psalm 41 that the Church has sung over its popes for centuries.

The choir sang it in the Sistine Chapel after Leo’s first Mass with the cardinals who elected him.

The clip is spreading after the Vatican announced Leo XIV has lung cancer.

[Pope Leo XIV @Pontifex]

Dear friends, during some recent medical examinations, the doctors found a small, localized nodule in my lung. It was detected at a very early stage and is well-localized. The doctors believe that it is best to intervene, so, following their advice, I have decided to undergo surgery to remove it. The operation is already scheduled to take place in the coming days. I thank you for your spiritual closeness and entrust myself to your prayers.

Ukraine’s freedom is not President Trump’s to bargain away.

He is wrong to ease sanctions on Russian diesel, wrong to blame President Zelensky for prolonging Putin’s war, and wrong to undermine a nation fighting for its right to exist. Russia is the aggressor. Always has been. Reward Russia, and we should expect to see more aggression, including from other countries. We can also kiss goodbye to any just and lasting peace.

This is why Conservatives have stood with Ukraine against Putin. Ukraine’s future belongs to Ukrainians. They alone have the right to choose their president, and we stand with President Zelensky because he fights not for himself, but for the survival of his country and his people.

[Archbishop of Canterbury @ArchbishopSarah]

I will be holding Pope Leo XIV in my prayers over these coming days, asking for God’s protection, closeness and care. With Christians across the country and around the world, I pray for the Pope’s swift recovery.

[Edward Luce @EdwardGLuce]

This is dark shit. Blaming Zelenskyy for world oil price rises when it's Trump's mindless Iran war that caused it.

[Vatican News @VaticanNews]

Pope Leo XIV reaffirms the Catholic Church’s rejection of the death penalty, recalling that the common good can be “safeguarded and the requirements of justice can be met without recourse to capital punishment.”

[Pope Leo XIV @Pontifex]

The death penalty is inadmissible because it is an attack on the inviolability and dignity of the person. The common good can be safeguarded and the requirements of justice can be met without recourse to capital punishment: effective systems of detention have been developed that protect citizens while at the same time do not completely deprive those who are guilty of the possibility of redemption. #NoDeathPenalty

If the many many decent Israelis are wondering why their country is sinking in global popularity, it’s because of people like this… 👇
