I'm confused, I've only ever seen catholic church groups spread fear and hate for immigrants.

Is the pope failing to represent his people?
or
Are the catholic people failing to follow the pope?

This is a dark moment for the American justice system and our democracy. I have worked alongside Letitia James for seven years. She is as tough and as fair as it gets, and a leader amongst attorneys general on both sides of the aisle. I stand with her unequivocally in this moment.

Norway braces for Trump’s reaction if he does not win Nobel peace prize

US president may impose tariffs, demand higher Nato contributions or even declare Norway an enemy, analyst says * Why is Donald Trump so obsessed with winning the peace prize?

What’s really scary is the number of morons happy to vote for their own demise. We are a land of bovine bigots and racists. Nothing new but it’s been held in check until the last 10yrs of ignorant politicians, including Starmer, opening Pandora’s Box for personal gain.
