There is a certain kind of Catholic convert who thinks they are more Catholic than the Pope.
“In these lectures, Thiel doesn’t just flirt with the apocalyptic. He goes all in — openly discussing the Antichrist, naming Pope Leo XIV as a potential manifestation of that figure, and, most disturbingly, advising JD Vance to ignore the pope on moral matters altogether.”
In newly leaked audio, Peter Thiel admits he urged JD Vance to ignore Pope Leo XIV on moral questions — including the ethical development of AI.
He goes even further, branding Leo “the woke American pope” and suggesting he’s a tool of the Antichrist.

“In fact, Vance’s 2022 Senate victory in Ohio would not have happened without Thiel’s $15 million investment.”
“Thiel’s alliance with JD Vance is no accident. The pair first connected over a decade ago, when Vance was a Yale Law student impressed by Thiel’s contrarian ideas. Thiel soon became a mentor and benefactor, recruiting Vance into his venture firm and later bankrolling Vance’s political rise.”

Don't Ghost The Immigrant Farmworkers Behind Every Pumpkin Harvest
Every fall, immigrants are among the farmworkers who harvest billions (yes, billions!) of pumpkins so families can carve, decorate, and bake their way through the spooky season.

"If this is meant to intimidate me and other members of Congress from doing our jobs and holding this administration accountable, it won’t work," Kelly has responded. "I’ve given too much to this country to be silenced by bullies who care more about their own power than protecting the Constitution."
"As of this writing, Kelly has yet to officially respond to the DoD’s decision to open an investigation into his conduct. However, Sen. Ruben Gallego (D-Ariz.) responded on X with a short five-word post that read, 'Fuck you and your investigation.'" www.commondreams.org/news/trump-d...
