It's not just that Vance is a recent convert. He didn't go through the RCIA classes that all other adult converts take to learn about the faith. He shortcut the process with tailor-made private sessions with a Dominican friar.
But he's a quick learner, right, so the pope should listen up.
A worker died at an Amazon warehouse in Oregon last week.
For more than an hour, workers were instructed to continue working as the man lay dead.
One worker wanted to help, but a manager told them to “Just turn around and not look. Let’s get back to work," according to @thewesternedge.bsky.social.

Insiders say Kristi Noem's new job as Special Envoy to the Shield of the Americas is basically fake. Her stuff was moved into a much smaller office but she never shows up. Four staffers have been put on leave and sources say the State Department didn't want her there in the first place.
Angus: This is a president who says the only constraint on his actions is not Congress, not the courts, not international law, but, quote, “my own morality, my own mind.”
There is no morality in a man accused of being a rapist…
The fact is that evangelicals are salivating for the end of times.
This is why we are seeing this religious rhetoric and “kill a civilisation” talk.
It was all the wacko “Christians” that left Europe for America. And wacko Christianity ever since.

Sincerely… NASA couldn’t have chosen a better team of people for this mission. They have been a bright light in the shadowy time here. It’s been a joy to watch.

CNN: The White House is claiming it was the president's tough rhetoric that brought Iran to its knees
MARJORIE TAYLOR GREENE: I'm sorry. That's not 'tough rhetoric.' It's insanity. It's calling for the murder of an entire civilization
RUBIO: “Imagine if Iran spent billions on its people instead of weapons... They’d have a much different country.”🤔😕
Unreal. @marcorubio Do you even hear yourselves? Your shameless hypocrisy is killing us
Cruelty is a feature of everything they do. Trump and those who enable him have repeatedly called immigrants names like animals and vermin. These are the same people who would like you believe they are christians.
“They got money for wars, but can’t feed the poor.” — Tupac said it years ago… and here we are.
The Pentagon is now asking for an additional $200 BILLION for this war.
We always find the money for war.
But when it comes to housing, healthcare, or feeding people? Suddenly it’s crickets.
What have we learned?
We should support unions, they remind us we hold all the power
We should vote on things that improve our lives, not things that hurt others, eventually they come for you too
We should punish criminals
We should Tax the Rich
We should fight back, everyone who does, wins
A grocery run should never turn deadly. But America’s gun violence crisis makes this far too common. Our hearts are with the victims, survivors, and the Boulder community as they continue to grieve this senseless loss.
Robert Mueller didn’t file bankruptcy 6 times or cheat on his taxes or attempt an insurrection or steal classified documents or commit business fraud or rape and beat children.
What he did was investigate the man who did all of these things for colluding with Russia.
He’s guilty of all.
Daily Beast: SCOTUS Justice John Roberts lashed out at the hostility being directed towards judges, describing it as “dangerous” & demanding an end to the attacks, a veiled swipe at Trump.
You can't create a monster and then complain when it turns on you.

Conan O’Brien: “I warn you this could get political — if that makes you uncomfortable Kid Rock is hosting an alternate Oscars at a dave and busters down the street.” #Oscars
With their new military drone company, cretinous grifters Gum & Gummer are now actual war profiteers! These two genetic mutations are getting while the getting’s good! But Hunter Biden!
A message for 🇪🇺President @vonderleyen.ec.europa.eu and 🇩🇪Chancellor Merz: "You can't support those who set the world on fire and then blame the smoke caused by the fire."
In an era where most of Europe's leaders are so spineless, Pedro Sanchez really stands out.
What I always hear: “We can’t afford to pay our workers more than $15 an hour.”
What I never hear: “We can’t afford to pay our CEO millions of dollars a year.”
Funny how that works.
He's sending a hospital ship to a place... with universal healthcare.
Can Trump not be an international embarrassment for one day. Just ONE DAY.
Is that too much to ask?
