I have paid rent and utility bills and written checks to mechanics to get people's cars out of the shop; I have never given the church's cash to anyone. (I have given my own cash to people)

just want to reiterate that the first amendment isn't something you "hide behind," it's something that constrains the government's ability to limit your inalienable rights. that distinction is very important

OPUS DEI IS THE SCIENTOLOGY OF CATHOLICISM THEY ARE THE ONLY THING "THE DA VINCI CODE" GOT RIGHT THEY ARE AWFUL AND THEY ARE EVIL AND THEY HAVE ENORMOUS POWER AND THEY ARE INTEGRAL TO TRADFASH CATHOLICISM
BREAKING: Pope Leo XIV is set to effectively disband Opus Dei in the coming weeks.

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
If Pope Leo does indeed approves a plan that effectively dissolves Opus Dei’s structure, it would be the most significant internal action of his short pontificate to date.

A scandal worse than Watergate that the reporter waited to tell until he had a book to sell. Okay.
Jake Tapper on Biden: "It is a scandal. It is without question -- and maybe even worse than Watergate in some ways, because Richard Nixon was in control of his faculties when he wasn't drinking."

A lot of people are calling Booker's speech "performative," but anything that "performs" Strom Thurmond right out of the record books is more than enough substance for me.
Cory Booker has held the Senate floor for 17 hours and 21 minutes.

The record of 24 hours and 18 minutes is held by segregationist Strom Thurmond, who spent that time protesting the Civil Rights Act of 1957.

I am pretty sure Booker would not mind changing that history.

Evil that I can’t even describe.
New — The National Center for Missing & Exploited Children (NCMEC) was told this week by DOJ that they'd lose their funding if the org didn't remove any mentions of LGBTQIA+ issues from their public materials, I've learned. Staff were told they need to deadname trans kids in their reports to comply.

SURELY IT IS SOMEONE'S JOB TO ARREST THESE PEOPLE FOR THE CRIMES THEY ARE VERY PUBLICLY DOING?
Murphy: "The reality is this could get dystopian very quickly. If you were to start speaking ill of Elon Musk on social media, Musk might be able to stop or delay your tax refund, or your mom's Social Security benefit, in part because we have no window into what's happening at Treasury right now."

After Vance finishes, an attendee at the conference (no idea who, they walked by quickly) walked by the press area and said, loudly, "that was gaslighting."
Vance: "How did America get to the point where we're sending thousands of taxpayer dollars abroad to NGOs that are dedicated to spreading atheism all over the globe?"

Note: Vance *appears* to be referencing the gutting of USAID, but the #1 recipient of USAID funding is Catholic Relief Services.
Vance is currently arguing religious liberty is an outgrowth of Christianity, and notes the U.S. remains the "largest majority-Christian country."

In listing the admin's current successes on religious liberty include pardoning abortion protesters and the…executive order on social media?
