Trump @realDonaldTrump As a mark of respect for the memory of His Holiness Pope Francis, by the authority vested in me as President of the United States by the Constitution and the laws of the United States of America, I hereby order that the flag of the United States shall be flown at half-staff at the White House and upon all public buildings and grounds, at all military posts and naval stations, and on all naval vessels of the Federal Government in the District of Columbia and throughout the United States and its Territories and possessions until sunset, on the day of interment. I also direct that the flag shall be flown at half-staff for the same length of time at all United States embassies, legations, consular offices, and other facilities abroad, including all military facilities and naval vessels and stations.

Pope Francis’ death has set off a centuries-old orchestrated series of events to honor his life and legacy, though the funeral for the 266th bishop of Rome will likely differ drastically from those of his predecessors. The beloved pontiff, who died Monday at 88 following a lengthy battle with double pneumonia, made changes to his funeral rites last year that underscore his humility while ditching the traditional pomp and circumstance. Typically, papal funerals are held four to six days after the death in St. Peter’s Square, but Francis had said that, unlike his predecessors, he would not be laid to rest in the crypt of St. Peter’s Basilica. Instead, he opted to be buried in Rome’s St. Mary Major Basilica. He also chose a simple wooden casket, a far cry from his predecessors who would be laid to rest in three interlocking caskets made of cypress, lead and oak The date of his funeral has not yet been announced. The conclave to elect a new pope by secret ballot begins in the Vatican’s Sistine Chapel between 15 and 20 days after the pope’s death. Cardinals need at least two-thirds plus one to elect the new pope, meaning voting can take several days before a new pontiff is chosen. https://nypost.com/2025/04/21/world-news/pope-francis-burial-plans-differ-drastically-from-his-predecessors/

Van Hollen Trainwrecks on the Sunday Shows, Reveals Who's Paying for His Trip by Nick Arama After a week in which Sen. Chris Van Hollen (D-MD) completely embarrassed himself by having a meeting with an illegal alien alleged MS-13 gang member who has also been accused of beating his wife, you might think he would go to ground and hide away in shame. But that would mean he had shame. He apparently doesn't, since instead, he was hitting all the Sunday shows on Easter trying to attack the Trump team and push the twisted narrative of his visit. But even going on friendly stations didn't go well for him. On "Meet the Press," he didn't seem to understand why the murder of Rachel Morin, a resident of Maryland, the state he's supposed to represent, was relevant. https://redstate.com/nick-arama/2025/04/20/van-hollen-hits-the-sunday-shows-n2188071

Don't Mess with JK Rowling
B-Man replied to The Frankish Reich's topic in Politics, Polls, and Pundits
Janice isn't claiming to speak for all women, @PennyRed, but given that you aren't one ('the category of "woman" does not fully describe my lived experience') it's hard to see why you should be speaking for any women at all. Literally nobody thinks the Supreme Court ruling 'legislates trans people out of existence.' Trans people have exactly the same rights and protections they had before the ruling, and unless they've mass combusted while I wasn't paying attention, I'm fairly sure they continue to exist. If some trans-identified people in the UK are currently experiencing rage and disappointment because the Supreme Court clarified that they don't have rights they believed they had, the responsibility lies firmly with activist groups and sections of the media who've persistently argued, falsely, that gender transition turned a person into the opposite sex for all practical purposes in the eyes of the law. You can personally take some responsibility for that state of affairs, of course, because you've spent the last few years enthusiastically championing the removal of single-sex spaces for women and girls. -
Corey Booker Hates Minority Women & The Civil Rights Act
B-Man replied to BillsFanNC's topic in Politics, Polls, and Pundits
Cory Booker really thought this was a smart thing to post. Keep in mind, this is the guy who wore a diaper so he could shriek for 25 hours and pretend he actually did something worthwhile. Stand for what? Protecting criminals? Funding wars? Raising taxes? Alrighty. https://twitchy.com/samj/2025/04/20/corey-booker-jane-fonda-n2411643 -
LOL! HER FACE! Sen. Chris Van Hollen BOTCHES Softball Question About Abrego-Garcia from Dana Bash Watch: Honestly, we're shocked Bash asked him about it. Then again, we're pretty sure she was just throwing him a softball question and giving him an opportunity to clear everything up, but he couldn't because, HELLO, he's in the gang. Oh, and he entered illegally. He shouldn't have been allowed to stay in our country. This is not rocket science. https://twitchy.com/samj/2025/04/20/van-hollen-refuses-to-say-his-bro-garcia-is-not-ms-13-because-he-is-watch-n2411663

Holy Week Massacre: 31 Catholics Murdered By Islamic Extremists in Nigeria Christians across the globe are celebrating Easter and the resurrection of Jesus Christ. Holy Week, as it is known, is the most sacred time of the year for Christian faiths. It begins with the Last Supper and Jesus' arrest by the Romans on Holy Thursday, His Crucifixion on Good Friday, and His resurrection on Easter Sunday. The events of Holy Week, as told by the Gospel, are the cornerstone of all Christian faiths. It is believed that Catholic communities in the Sankera region of Benue State, Nigeria, were attending Good Friday services when members of an extremist Islamic group known as the Fulani Ethic Militia (FEM) launched a coordinated attack across several counties in the region. At least thirty-one Catholics were murdered in the attacks, but the death toll is expected to rise as many fled into the brush and were pursued by their attackers. It is feared that an unknown number of bodies have yet to be recovered. https://twitchy.com/eric-v/2025/04/20/holy-week-massacre-31-catholics-murdered-by-islamic-extremists-in-nigeria-n2411660
