He converted to Catholicism just a few years ago. He took a shortcut around the usual path for adult converts. He didn't bother to baptize his son until he was six years old. He rarely attends Mass at church. But he's still going to lecture the pope on Catholic doctrine, thank you very much.

Media ploy. Once again. It took 2 cherry pickers and a few hours to get the #trump name added to the #KennedyCenter Now the tax payers are forced to pay for retribution scaffolding and a dozen people working overtime. Trump is a wasted waster.

If Republicans feel really strongly about getting taxpayers to pay for Trump's golden ballroom, they should go out there and hold some town halls with their constituents. They can bring photos of the chandeliers and maybe a sample of the marble for them to look at. I'm sure it'll be a big hit!

So Trump deleted the photo depicting him as Jesus. — When asked about it, he will claim that it was posted by a staff member. However, he will neither name nor fire this alleged staff member, and 99.9% of MAGA influencers will simply act as if the whole thing never happened.

CARDINAL CUPICH: “We’re dehumanizing victims of war by turning the suffering of people and the killing of children and our own soldiers into entertainment. It’s sickening.” No wonder Trump lashed out at the Pope today.

Some thoughts about the President of the United States speaking about ending a civilization. The president speaks genocide. Anyone who has been involved in that conversation or associated actions would be complicit. And so we too must speak. Not only about crimes, but about their legal punishment.

It’s… let’s say “disturbing” when the President of the United States sounds more messianic in his foreign policy threats than Iran’s mullahs.

The very definition of usurpation of congressional power and irrevocable harm. The green-lighting of this ultimate eyesore has to come from the legislature, and they have to face the political consequences if they bow to Trump

NBC is reporting that in the days before Iran's attack on a US airbase in Saudi Arabia, Russia took satellite images of the facility, evidently to aid Iran's targeting. So, I checked informally with friends. Yes, it is true. Even as Trump lifts sanctions on Russian oil, Putin is helping Iran.

It took four years of hate-filled propaganda for Slobodon Milosevic to convince people of committing atrocities. It took less time in Rwanda. Steady messaging that designates internal enemies should never be taken lightly.
