Speaking to journalists in Castel Gandolfo this evening, Pope Leo XIV called on world leaders to “come back to the table” and solve their problems through dialogue (video below). "I'm told that President Trump recently said he wanted to end the war. Hopefully, he is looking for a way out. I hope he's looking for a way to reduce the violence and bombing, which would significantly help to reduce the constant increase in hatred in the Middle East and elsewhere." Leo XIV added, "Come back to the table and engage in dialogue. Let's look for solutions to problems and ways to reduce violence, so that peace — especially at Easter — might reign in our hearts." The Pope was also asked about his decision to personally carry the cross during the traditional Stations of the Cross at the Colosseum on Friday. "I think it will be an important sign because of what the Pope represents: a spiritual leader in today's world and a voice saying that Christ still suffers." When asked what he expects from his …зиёдтар
Christ still suffers to see the total disregard of too many of the Pope's hand picked leaders with respect to the Ten Commandments. Our Lady of La Sallette suffers also.
Die EU „verstärkt den Druck“ und fordert die Ukraine auf, die Gesetze zur EU-Integration unverzüglich zu verabschieden. Diese könnten die Freigabe der Finanzmittel ermöglichen. Der Redakteur von Radio Free Europe / Radio Liberty, Rikard Jozwiak, berichtete, dass die EU-Kommissarin für Erweiterung, Marta Kos, ein Schreiben an die Werchowna Rada gerichtet habe, in dem sie dazu aufrief, im April elf Gesetzesvorlagen zu verabschieden, die eigentlich bereits 2025 hätten verabschiedet werden sollen. Diese Information wurde auch von der ukrainischen Zeitung "European Pravda" (… bestätigt. In dem Schreiben von Kos heißt es, dass die Verabschiedung der Gesetzesentwürfe nicht nur eine Voraussetzung für den Weg in die EU sei, sondern der Ukraine auch dabei helfen werde, Finanzmittel in Höhe von bis zu 4 Mrd. Euro zu erhalten. Die Zeitung erklärte, dass für die Bereitstellung der Mittel keine Einstimmigkeit in der EU erforderlich sei, d. h. Ungarn könne diese nicht blockieren. Der Abgeordnete …зиёдтар
Judge Andrew Napolitano says Trump is “not all there” and heading for a war illegal, unwinnable, and driven by pressure from Israel and donors. It's a disaster in the making. INTERVIEW: Mercenaries for a foreign country
"He has come into our country and dwelt in one body amidst the many, and in consequence the designs of the enemy against mankind have been foiled and the corruption of death, which formerly held us in its power, has simply ceased to exist. For the human race would have perished utterly had not the Lord and Savior of all, the Son of God, come among us to put and end to death." Saint Athanasios of Alexandria

With only ~45 days of fuel left, Marcos declared a national energy emergency due to the Middle East conflict. Prices have doubled. Public transport is crippled.

On March 28, a Lenten pilgrimage organized by the Priestly Fraternity of St. Pius X (FSSPX) was denied entry to the Sanctuary of Our Lady of Sorrows in Cuceglio, near Turin, Italy. Despite being announced in advance, the church doors remained closed to the group, which included priests, religious sisters, and families who had walked several kilometers in devotion. The pilgrims had planned no Mass or formal liturgy - only a few concluding prayers. According to the local newspaper La Voce, the decision to close the gates to the pilgrims was made by the rector of the sanctuary, Don Luca Meinardi, and by Bishop Daniele Salera of Ivrea. The newspaper comments: "A choice that inevitably contradicts an ecclesiastical vocabulary which, in recent years, has emphasized words like welcome, inclusion, dialogue, and mercy." #newsSuicuzlbcj
I had Grok break down Trump’s EO, and there were some interesting points: 1) This EO includes the involvement of DHS creating state citizenship lists for every state. DHS’s role in election security is expanding. 2) Mail-in ballots are being reformed, with “unique intelligent mail barcodes”, and these ballots can only be mailed to citizens on the state citizenship lists created by DHS and SSA. 3) The order also directs the AG to prioritize investigations and prosecutions of election-related crimes, particularly related to distributing/collecting illegal ballots to/from non-citizens. In conclusion, Trump is using DHS to secure elections via managing the voter rolls and preventing mail-in ballot fraud, while the DOJ has been instructed to prosecute any attempts to cheat. This is what the Dems have been worried about the entire time. This is why they have been refusing to fund DHS and throwing a fit about ICE. It was always about election security. BioClandestine
I found this one of the clearest summaries of what took place concerning election integrity. It’s not an option, not a choice but rather a decision to save the republic and by extension other peoples. It is my opinion that the Church is directly impacted as well.
1. The War Was Predictably Destabilizing The speaker begins by saying any competent analyst should have known that attacking Iran would disrupt global energy markets. Iran has the capability to interfere with oil flows (especially in key shipping lanes), so economic fallout was a “known known”—not a surprise. 2. Failure to Build International Support They contrast this conflict with earlier U.S. wars: 1991 Gulf War: A broad coalition was built before combat—European allies, Arab states, and NATO partners were aligned. 2003 Iraq War: Even though controversial, the U.S. at least attempted to gain NATO backing and international legitimacy. Current situation: No real diplomatic effort was made to build a coalition. Europe is refusing to participate. European economies are already strained (e.g., from Russia sanctions), and this war is worsening their situation. Conclusion: The U.S. acted unilaterally and now stands isolated. 3. No Serious War Planning The speaker argues the war was launched …зиёдтар

Saint Francis of Paola - April 2 Also known as Franciscus de Paula Francis the Fire Handler Francesco di Paola Francisco de Paula Memorial 2 April Profile Francis’ parents were childless for many years, but following prayers for the intercession of SaintFrancis of Assisi, they had three children; Francis was the oldest. Following a pilgrimage in his teens to Rome and Assisi in Italy, he became a hermit in a cave near Paola. Before he was 20 years old he began to attract followers. By the 1450‘s the followers had become so numerous that he established a Rule for them and sought Church approval. This was the founding of the Hermits of Saint Francis of Assisi, who were approved by the Holy See in 1474. In 1492 they were renamed the Franciscan Order of Minim Fiars, which means they count themselves the least of the family of God. Prophet. Miracle worker. Reputed to read minds. In 1464 Francis wanted to cross the Straits of Messina to reach Sicily, but a boatman …зиёдтар

Pope Leo XIV: “I'm told that President Trump recently stated that he would like to end the war. Hopefully he's looking for an 'off-ramp'. Hopefully he's looking for a way to decrease the amount of violence, of bombing, which would be a significant contribution to removing the hatred that's being created and that's increasing constantly in the Middle East and elsewhere. I appeal to all leaders, come back to the table, to dialogue. Let's look for solutions to problems, let's look for ways to reduce the amount of violence that we're promoting, that peace - especially at Easter - might reign in our hearts."
Leo XIV. fordert Trump auf, noch heute Abend einen Weg zu finden, den Krieg im Iran zu beenden. „Mir wurde berichtet, dass Präsident Trump kürzlich erklärt hat, er wolle den Krieg beenden. Hoffen wir, dass er nach einem Ausweg sucht, hoffen wir, dass er nach einem Weg sucht, die Gewalt und die Bombardierungen einzudämmen – was einen wesentlichen Beitrag dazu leisten würde, den Hass zu beseitigen, der sich im Nahen Osten und anderswo aufstaut und stetig wächst.“
A Clapham security guard has described the moment he was forced to lock customers inside the store as mobs of feral youths ran wild. The Metropolitan Police warned of more Easter holiday 'linkups' as teens tore through south London once again on Tuesday evening with terrified families barricaded inside high street stores in the latest wave of chaos. Clips circulating on social media showed crowds of children gathering in the neighbourhood, terrorising locals and forcing shops to close. Police vehicles could be seen desperately trying to move through the throng of rioters who took to the streets in broad daylight on Tuesday afternoon, responding to a social media trend encouraging teens to 'linkup' en masse. The force confirmed two teenage girls were arrested on suspicion of assaulting an emergency worker, and a dispersal order has been put in place. Marks and Spencer on the high street - which was looted by a similar flash mob over the weekend leading to two arrests - shut early amid …
“We are also aware of reports that Ms. Castillo expressed hesitancy to undergo euthanasia in her final hours, but that these indications were ignored." Noelia Castillo, who was a sexual-assault survivor. After she was placed in a group home as a teenager she was gang raped by African migrants, leading her to try to take her own life by jumping from a building. She ended up paralyzed and eventually sought suicide. Her family tried to stop her and when that failed they took legal action. The State Departmentdirected the US Embassy in Madrid to probe how Spanish law enforcement handled repeated sexual attacks against Castillo before her death, according to a report from the New York Postciting a leaked diplomatic cable. “We are deeply concerned by allegations that Ms. Castillo was repeatedly sexually assaulted while under state care and that no perpetrators have been brought to justice,” the cable read. “We are also aware of reports that Ms. Castillo expressed hesitancy to undergo euthanasia …
Conservative Bishop Robert Barron of Winona-Rochester, Minnesota, published a “counter-view” to the teaching that Judas has earned his place in hell on FoxNews.com on Palm Sunday. Monsignor Barron's main arguments for having hope for Judas' salvation - Judas shows repentance: "Judas, the betrayer, deeply regretted what he had done: 'I have sinned in betraying innocent blood.'" "This is not callous indifference or self-justification. This is a clear and honest admission of guilt." - The Church has never declared that Judas is in hell: "St. Pope John Paul II insisted that the Church has never made a definitive statement regarding whether any particular person is in hell." "Pope Benedict said that we should suspend judgement regarding Judas and commit him to the mercy and justice of God." - Suicide does not guarantee damnation: "We should not despair of the eternal salvation of persons who have taken their own lives.' 'By ways known to him alone, God can provide the opportunity for salutary …зиёдтар
BIG FAT MEMO to the Novus Ordo. You can overcome temptation and false thinking by having a meaningful everyday fast during Lent for 40 days, instead of inflating your ego with fat arms. The 40-day fast is modeled on Jesus fasting in the desert, as well as Moses and Elijah’s 40-day fasts in the Old Testament. Judas failed, he did not live to see the Resurrection of Messiah. Yahweh gave him the justice of a traitor.
Megatron @Megatron_ron BREAKING: Netanyahu says the oil from the Gulf states will pass trough Israel in the future After the Iranian war, the [Strait of] Hormuz needs to be bypassed using pipelines from Saudi Arabia to the Mediterranean," - Benjamin Netanyahu, Israeli Prime Minister. Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu proposes a radical idea of pipelines stretching from the Gulf to Israel, carrying crude. In this way it bypasses the Strait of Hormuz and the Bab al-Mandab Strait. The proposal would give Tel Aviv massive leverage power over the GCC and can hold the entire Arab Gulf hostage in the future.
