NEW: During a Vatican audience, a prominent same-sex couple told Pope Leo XIV they were married.
The pope responded with overwhelming kindness — and a conversation about the day’s Wordle.
This quiet moment may signal something bigger: the kind of Church Pope Leo intends to build.

This is huge: “A drug that provides near-perfect protection against H.I.V. with shots just twice a year will be made available at $40 per patient annually in low- and middle-income countries, offering new hope… making lenacapavir a realistic choice in countries with constrained resources.”

If you accept that non-citizens have no right to due process, you are accepting that citizens have no right to due process. All the government has to do is claim that you are not a citizen; without due process you have no chance to prove the contrary.

The US is scheduled to co-host the World Cup in 2026 and the Olympics in 2028. Why would thousands of international athletes and millions of fans from around the world come to a country where tourists, asylum seekers, and visa holders are being disappeared to foreign prisons?

People might think that whatever destruction is done to science in the US, we can undo in 4 years with a Democratic president and Congress.
The problem is that many areas require specialized knowledge and skills built up over years, and once that's lost, it's hard to get back.

The damage will be far worse than just a 4-yr gap. Both I and the individual who has managed this site for most of the past 50 yrs are retiring within the next 2 years. With this closure, we will not be able to plan a transition.
