The Extinction Order: Trump’s Executive Order 14270 Doesn’t Deregulate; It Dismantles

Henry David Thoreau once wrote, “In wildness is the preservation of the world.” But wildness cannot survive without protection, and protection is what this order destroys.

He was compassionate and humble. He cared deeply about immigrants, families suffering in war zones, the poor, those of other faiths and the LGBTQ+ community. He did not condemn or judge but urged us to love and care for each other.
He was the best Pope of my life time.
Thank you Pope Francis .

Pope dies after schooling JD Vance

I'm not Catholic nor religious BUT I appreciated that Francis showed unconditional love for the less fortunate and those of us marginalized

Pope Francis won my respect clashing with Trump & hardliner American Catholics

Pope Francis’ Last Act Was to Give JD Vance a Lesson About Migrants
The pontiff, who died Monday, spoke up in opposition to MAGA policies and suggested in a final statement that they stirred up “contempt.”

Pope Francis has died at 88.

His final message: a call for a Gaza ceasefire.

“This is cruelty. This is not war,” he said after Israel killed 7 children in Jabalia.

He called Gaza’s suffering “deplorable” — and made nightly calls to Christians trapped there.

Pope Francis has died at age 88. Through sheer personableness, he brought the papacy down to earth, and throughout his tenure remained a man who wasn’t defined by his role.
The Down-to-Earth Pope
In a historic moment characterized by autocrats and would-be autocrats, Francis was the antithesis of a strongman.

Sad as we are, it's important to note this morning that MAGA Catholics strongly disliked Pope Francis and refused to follow his pastoral guidance for one simple reason - he refused to hate the same people they hate.

Fortunately Pope Francis was deeply focused on cementing a vision for reform in Catholic Church and so he did this just a few months ago.
Succession is part of leadership.

Pope Francis, the first head of the Catholic Church from the Americas who became a symbol of hope and change during his papacy, died Monday at age 88.

He was the first Jesuit pope, the first Latin-American pope and the first pope from outside Europe in at least 1,000 years. to.pbs.org/3EjlyFb
