In his strongest condemnation yet of the Trump-Vance war against Iran, Pope Leo XIV said today:
“We are surrounded by a delusion of omnipotence that’s becoming increasingly unpredictable and aggressive.”
“We are met by threats instead of invitations to come together.
“Those who pray don’t threaten death. Death enslaves those who have turned their backs on God and turned themselves and their own power into a mute, blind, and deaf idol.
“They demand the whole world bends their knee. Enough of the idolatry of self and money! Enough of the display of power! Enough of war!
“True strength is shown in serving life!”
APPLEBAUM: Russians aren't winning, despite the absence of United States. Maybe Trump imagined that if the U.S. disappeared, Ukraine would collapse. It didn't collapse. European part of NATO, Ukrainians, and other allies turned out to be very powerful.
It's almost as if Trump is listening to Putin, getting information from Putin. He is not paying attention to what's actually happening on the ground. It's as if he has no information from Ukraine and from Europe at all.
Godspeed to the people of Hungary today, who deserve to escape the misrule of a corrupt Kremlin lackey. May they return to the path of democracy and prosperity without bloodshed. 🇭🇺
The worldwide reputation of the US has been badly damaged. But the success of Artemis II reminds us there’s another America, clever, bold, open to the world, which we love and admire.
We have been awarded a contract to deliver support and training equipment and services to support Türkiye's @eurofighter Typhoon fleet.
This work will support the Turkish Air Force to deliver operational readiness and progressively increase its sovereign support of its fleet. Together with the @RoyalAirForce, we are delighted to support Türkiye as it becomes the latest air force to make Typhoon the backbone of its combat air.

What the Artemis II astronauts did over the last 10 days was a testament to their bravery. And the fact that they traveled farther from Earth than anyone ever has, re-entered our atmosphere at more than 24,000 mph, and splashed down safely was a testament to human ingenuity. Thanks to everyone at @NASA for making this mission possible, and for taking us along for the ride.
Someone needs to tell the American people what's going on in the Pentagon, and it obviously won't be Pete Hegseth, who is at war with America's senior military officers. My latest:

Was the point of Trump’s speech tonight to show the nation how badly he’s deteriorated with more slurred, low energy, incoherent, nonsensical rambling?
If so, mission accomplished.
