Pope Leo XIV bringing the jokes meeting with Villanova and Notre Dame 😂: “Growing up on the south side of Chicago, we oftentimes heard, “Go Irish!” But, as you all know, Prevost graduated from Villanova. So the Pope doesn't take sides. Prevost has another opinion, but we won't do that now.”

“He’s got the White House looking like Saddam Hussein opened up a Cheesecake Factory" Obama just spoke to an ELECTRIC audience in Ohio, skewering Trump and Pete Hegseth and making the case that while we may be stuck with the same president for two more years, we are not stuck with a spineless do-nothing Congress Here are the highlights:

🇻🇦 Hoy se cumplen 48 años del Habemus Papam de Juan Pablo II Tal día como hoy, el 16 de octubre de 1978, el cardenal polaco Karol Wojtyła era elegido Papa tras el breve pontificado de Juan Pablo I, adoptando el nombre de Juan Pablo II. Con 58 años, se convertía en el primer Papa polaco de la historia y en el primer Pontífice no italiano en 455 años. Desde el balcón central de la Basílica de San Pedro, se dirigió por primera vez a los fieles congregados en la plaza: «Los eminentísimos cardenales han llamado a un nuevo obispo de Roma. Lo han llamado de un país lejano… lejano, pero siempre tan cercano por la comunión en la fe y en la tradición cristiana». Y añadió con humildad una frase que pasaría a la historia: «Non so se posso bene spiegarmi nella vostra... nostra lingua italiana. Se mi sbaglio mi corrigerete». («No sé si puedo expresarme bien en vuestra… nuestra lengua italiana. Si me equivoco, me corregiréis»). Comenzaba así uno de los pontificados más largos de la historia de la Iglesia, que se prolongaría durante casi 27 años, hasta su fallecimiento el 2 de abril de 2005. Beatificado por el Papa Benedicto XVI el 1 de mayo de 2011 y canonizado por el Papa Francisco el 27 de abril de 2014, San Juan Pablo II dejó una huella imborrable en la historia de la Iglesia y en millones de fieles de todo el mundo. ¡San Juan Pablo II, ruega por nosotros! #JuanPabloII #HabemusPapam #Vaticano

In October 1978, 58-year old Cardinal Karol Wojtyła arrived in Rome for the funeral of Pope John Paul I and the Conclave to elect his successor. Before leaving Poland, the communist authorities confiscated his diplomatic passport, leaving him with only his tourist passport. One provincial secretary of the Communist Party warned him: “Go, go. When you return, we will settle accounts.” But Karol did not seem worried. At the airport, a television crew awaited him, and he looked around with a calm, almost amused expression as the cameras followed him. They Communist authorities were waiting for him in Poland but they didn't know that God had a bigger plan for him. The next time he returned to Poland, he returned as Pope John Paul II. – at Ibadan, Nigeria
