A 4th bishop...
+Naumann: “The bishops were assured that no photographs would be made public. They came to have a discussion on important policy matters. As Catholic bishops, they pray with everyone, but do not endorse candidates or political parties.”

The Heritage Foundation adviser who recruited 12 bishops to pray over Trump in the Oval Office claimed a Ph.D. from an Italian university that doesn’t grant doctorates. His listed bachelor’s school is a high school.
A Vatican official called the meeting an insult to Pope Leo XIV. thelettersfromleo.com/p/heri…

NCR EDITORIAL: Bishops' prayer for Trump may have been sincere, but for POTUS, it was pure politics. This is not a time for political naivete. More…

This is the way diehard rightwingers operate -- remember Pope Francis getting ambushed with the Kim Davis meeting at the end of his 2015 visit by his own ambassador, Archbishop Viganò: 1/3

A strong and direct apology from Milwaukee Archbishop Grob for that Oval Office fiasco:
"I did not go without reservations. I wish I had heeded them."
Also a very good explanation of what really went down with White House manipulations:

So the First Lady’s rep is spreading Russian disinformation. Once upon a time, this would’ve been a major scandal.
Exclusive Senior Adviser to First Lady Melania Trump Marc Beckman claims Russian kids are being kidnapped too #BothSides
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
There is no evidence that Ukraine has kidnapped Russian children.UN investigation concluded that Russia’s deportation, transfer and disappearance of Ukrainian children constitute war crimes

You know the “Saddam Hussein opened a Cheesecake Factory” line was good because of how angry they are about it.

This is a man who knowingly took up Nazi rhetoric to gin up the hatred behind an ongoing ethnic cleansing of Haitian refugees from his own state.

It's Wingnut Bingo and we have a WINNER!
Barack Obama is nothing more than a Martha’s Vineyard elitist hack. Cheesecake Factory serves over 80 million meals a year to Americans. Not everyone can have caviar on the yacht with Clooney. And it’s funny he mentions Saddam Hussein. I guess he forgot his middle name is also Hussein. An odd name for a boy from “Hawaii.”

Thankfully, France and Great Britain have a veto they can use to block this absolutely idiotic idea.
I also doubt Xi would go along with it.
Trump officials push the idea of a U.S.-Russia-China joint candidate for U.N. Secretary-General: former Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán. wsj.com/opinion/viktor-orban… via @WSJopinion

Obama owes an apology to the everyday Americans who love Saddam Hussein.

The naïveté here is simply unbelievable. But the apology is real: they were duped. archmil.org/posts/a-public-a…

This is demonstrably true. Previously, each Vatnik Soup thread received between 300k and 5M impressions. Now, we're lucky if we get 100k.
Our annual views have dropped from 700M to 280M. Posts about Ukraine shared by accounts with millions of followers barely get any traction, whereas our more generic posts about AI, for example, can get millions of views.
Ukraine is still one of the hottest topics on this platform, yet voices supporting the country are being throttled, just like Starlink/Starshield was.
