Oh: @clairegiangrave.bsky.social with an exclusive:

Pope Leo, in addition to urging U.S. bishops to speak out about mistreatment of immigrants, also told a group of U.S. Latino Catholics who work w/immigrants their job is important — "perhaps especially" in the U.S. religionnews.com/2025/10/08/i...

Data centers are receiving billions in state tax exemptions.

These centers, many owned by Big Tech giants, are driving up electric bills and sucking up huge amounts of water.
