Newsom: "Think about the state of mind of the VP. How do you square the circle when you go to a prayer breakfast? Old testament, new testament. What's the fundamental thing that connects John to Matthew to Proverbs? It's this notion of hunger, feeding the poor. It's central to advancing God's will."

Far-right think tank and publisher of the infamous Project 2025, the Heritage Foundation, is under fire for cozying up to Nazis. The only people who are surprised? MAGA's "Israel-stans," writes @ninaburleigh.bsky.social.

This would be the most sweeping internal reform of his pontificate — and a dramatic continuation of Pope Francis’s legacy.
NEW: Pope Leo Set To Break Up Opus Dei

In recent days, the spectacle of state power abusing American citizens has reached critical mass.
Coast to coast, masked thugs are dragging Americans off by their clothes and hair.
Peaceful protestors branded as “terrorists” are being shoved into unmarked vans.
