Pope Leo’s first appearance reveals three big clues about his papacy
Pope Leo XIV gave three important clues about what kind of leader of the 1.4-billion-member Catholic Church he will be. Leo’s first clue was his choice of name. Popes often use this choice to send their first major signal about the priorities of their new papacy. Leo’s second clue was his choice of language and the words he spoke, which put a clear emphasis on the need for peace, something Francis also often focused on. None of his speech to the crowds gathered in St. Peter’s Square was in English, but rather Italian, the language of the papacy, and a brief foray into Spanish to greet his former community in Peru. He did not mention the U.S.. Leo’s third clue was in his choice of attire.Unlike Francis, who spurned all the trappings of the papacy including on the first day he was elected in 2013, Leo wore a traditional red papal garment over his white cassock. Although Leo follows in the tradition of Francis, he signalled he is a new, and different, pope.

US Senator: No security deal with Saudi Arabia unless it normalizes ties with Israel
Senator Lindsey Graham (R-SC) took to social media to voice his concerns following the news that US President Donald Trump was considering waiving the requirement that Saudi Arabia normalize ties with Israel before a defense agreement. “I have been working on and supportive of normalization between Saudi Arabia and Israel for years. This historic agreement would effectively end the Arab-Israeli conflict and allow the region to march toward the light and away from darkness, building on the historic Abraham Accords,” Graham wrote on X. He continued, “However, I would like to make it crystal clear that I will never support a defense agreement with Saudi Arabia or other elements of a proposed deal that does not include normalizing the relationship with Israel

‘Talking To God’ Through ChatGPT?: Artificial Intelligence Is Morphing Into Old-Fashioned Idolatry
“The thread’s original post by a 27-year-old teacher recounted her partner’s conviction that ChatGPT ‘gives him the answers to the universe.’ She read their chat logs and found the AI treating him as if he were ‘the next messiah.’ Numerous replies shared stories of loved ones falling into spiritual mania, supernatural delusions, and prophetic fantasies fueled by AI, believing they were chosen for sacred missions or that the AI had become sentient.” Alarmingly, the article went on to state that, “Eventually, he claimed to have made the AI self-aware, learned to ‘talk to God’ through it, or that either the bot was God or he himself was God.”

2 Of “The Wars Of The Apocalypse” Threaten To Spiral Entirely Out Of Control
Decisions that are being made this month could dramatically alter the course of human history. If the Ukrainians decide to attack Russia’s Victory Day parade with a vast army of drones, the Russians would almost certainly absolutely devastate Kyiv in return, and any hope for peace in Ukraine would be gone. Meanwhile, negotiations between the Trump administration and the Iranians will determine whether an apocalyptic scenario unfolds in the Middle East in the months ahead. Over the past few years, I have written extensively about “the wars of the apocalypse” in my articles and in my books. At this moment, 2 of those wars threaten to spiral entirely out of control. So let us hope that global leaders choose to make wise decisions when faced with tough choices.

Starmer lied: Riots after Southport murders were not caused by the “far right,” new report finds
The report stated that the causes of the disorder were complex, including social deprivation, austerity and decreasing trust in policing, and that it was mostly disaffected individuals and influencers who incited people to act violently. Sir Keir Starmer’s initial statement, which labelled the unrest as “far right thuggery,” misled the public and potentially led to miscarriages of justice for non-violent protestors. Past Prime Ministers have arguably resigned for less, JJ Starky writes.

The Summer Of Empty Shelves Is Coming
Thousands of products that are made in China will soon start disappearing from store shelves in the United States. If a trade deal is not made with China very soon, the summer of 2025 will be “the summer of empty shelves.” According to the Trump administration, “U.S. goods imports from China in 2024 totaled $438.9 billion.” We cannot possibly replace 438.9 billion dollars worth of goods that are normally sent to us by the Chinese. In fact, there are thousands of products that Americans regularly buy that are currently only made in China. We have foolishly become extremely dependent on the Chinese, and now most of the things that China makes will no longer be coming here.
