As fear of ICE raids descend upon Guadalupe Celebrations (patch.com/illinois/des...), Pope Leo to preside at Mass for Friday’s Feast; ironically, last year Leo celebrated Mass as “Bob” filling in for Francis who was ill — Amid the current crackdown on migrants, Leo’s words bear a close watching.

What’s remarkable about Scott is that her philanthropy isn’t an effort to offset the moral choices made in earning her fortune, as was the case for the Carnegies et al. As far I can tell, it’s just unadulterated beneficence.
NEW YORK (AP) — Philanthropist MacKenzie Scott increased her donations to nonprofits in 2025, giving $7.1 billion.

It's great that reporting on the double tap has spotlighted the abject criminality of this Administration.
But don't forget: Venezuela is not waging war on America or Americans, and the men killed were not combatants.
The first strike was every bit as illegal as the second.

The Gallup poll is a disaster for Trump. Nixon is the only president with a worse net approval at this point in a second term than he has.
No second-term presidency’s net approval has risen more than 5 points from this point through the midterms.
