Cardinal McElroy at Mass for World Day of Migrants and Refugees: “We are witnessing an unprecedented assault on our nation…this assault is intended to make life miserable for undocumented migrants…our government is engaged in a comprehensive campaign of fear at its core.”

I immediately thought that this was the reason... looking forward to more good news from the Pope of the people...gracias a Dios.

[Vatican News @VaticanNews]

Pope Leo XIV explains his choice of name:

"... I chose to take the name Leo XIV. There are different reasons for this, but mainly because Pope Leo XIII in his historic Encyclical Rerum Novarum addressed the social question in the context of the first great industrial revolution. In our own day, the Church offers to everyone the treasury of her social teaching in response to another industrial revolution and to developments in the field of artificial intelligence that pose new challenges for the defence of human dignity, justice and labour."

New CBO analysis is devastating to GOP claims that Medicaid can be slashed without cutting benefits.

Even two supposedly easier proposals — repealing eligibility reforms & capping costs on coverage for hard-pressed workers — would end Medicaid coverage for 5+ million people.

[David Axelrod @davidaxelrod]

Remarkable that a gravely ill Pope Francis lived just long enough to issue one more impassioned Easter plea for peace, for justice, for compassion for the most vulnerable.
Let his final earthly words be a prod to the consciences of our leaders and all mankind.

[Rep. Stacey Plaskett @StaceyPlaskett]

The Republican budget includes $7 trillion—TRILLION, with a T—in giveaways to billionaire donors and big corporations while ripping health care and food away from millions.

Democrats are fighting back. We stand with working families. We👏🏽won’t👏🏽back👏🏽down👏🏽

Two million people trapped with no access to aid or assistance. Tens of thousands of dead people. The wounded. Orphans. This is the reality in Gaza today.

[House Judiciary Dems @HouseJudiciary]

RM @RepRaskin delivers his opening statement during today’s hearing on how MAGA Republicans want to change how the judicial system works because Trump keeps losing in court.

[House Judiciary Dems @HouseJudiciary]

A Maryland father with legal status, on his way to pick up his autistic son, was seized by ICE and deported. No hearing, no charges, no judge—just shackled and disappeared into a Salvadoran mega-prison, indefinitely.
 
@RepRaskin explains: This is what happens when due process is cast aside. The Trump Administration trampled the Constitution, admits to their mistake, and now claims the man’s fate is out of their hands.

[David Axelrod @davidaxelrod]

Will ANYONE in a position of authority investigate this? The FBI? Congress? Betting odds are no!
What's chilling is that had they not accidentally put a reporter on that chain, we'd never have known about the larger breach--transmitting war plans on an open source network.
How many other serious gaffes like this are happening because people were hired for key positions only for their personal loyalty and appearance on TV?

[Sr. Simone Campbell @sr_simone]

Senator Warren has it right!! Let's meet at the conference and prepare to make healthcare available and equitable for all!!

Pope Francis: “Today, it comes to my heart to ask you all to pray for the prisoners who are on death row in the United States. I believe there are thirteen or fifteen of them. Let us pray that their sentence be commuted, changed.”

Oh dear! In a vulnerable nation... gratitude to the limited health care staff.
