While the white smoke is clearing up, Robert Prevost of Chicago has become Pope Leo XIV, the very first American Pope.
This revelation quickly gave way to that even more important: Bob seems to have a Twitter account. Online detectives quickly shared a February article from an account on behalf of a title of national Catholic journalist: “JD Vance is bad: Jesus does not ask us to classify our love of others.” The account also retweeted the defense defenses for children's arrivals (DACA), a call for prayers for George Floyd and his family and an article by Jim Martin (a well -known liberal Jesuit with which I worked briefly during an internship at the American magazine): “We prohibit all Syrian refugees? Women and children who have been most Need help? What an immoral nation we become. Jesus cries.
At least one contingent of the right is happy; The Executive Director of the Pro -Life Action League sent around a statement highlighting a reported comment that the Pope made during a homily this year: “God's mercy calls us to protect each life, in particular these societies neglect – the child still to be born and the elderly approaching the end of their trip – because everyone carries the face of Christ.”
The emerging political portrait is confusing for the American spirit: liberal on immigration and the poor, conservative of abortion. It is also a fairly typical Catholic profile, in a church which urges both social justice and the management of marginalized and also opposes abortion, women in priesthood and homosexual marriage.
The magnets, however, does not expect confirmation that the Twitter account is planned. He saw enough – and he doesn't like the arrow cutting the new pope.
“Marxist Pope!” Bested Laura Loomer in response to George Floyd's Retweet.
“The new pope seems to be anti-top and pro-open borders,” tweeted Sean Davis, CEO of the federalist, reacting to the alleged retweet of Prevost of an article from the Washington Post Inducted: “Cardinal Dolan: why the anti-immigrant rhetoric of Donald Trump is so problematic.” Dolan, for what it is worth, is a curator who often mobilize to President Trump.
“Here is the new Trump attacker pope,” said Jack Posobiet, an far -right activist, in response to the same Retweet.
“Is it too much to hope that a 20-year-old child managed the new X Pope account and he never looked at him?” Seized Megyn Kelly.
“Nightmare”, tweeted Catturd darkly.
Many Liberals loved Pope Francis not because he was “progressive” by American political terms-he argued throughout his life that abortion is “murder” and has not changed the doctrine prohibiting the same sex couples from marrying well beyond what anti-gay predecessors have expressed. He also defended the dignity of immigrants and refugees, argued for environmental management and appointed more women in senior roles in the Vatican than any other pope. For a long vision of the world in progress in the highest ranks of Catholicism, Francis' posture was a sea change.
But the magaum Brooks no dissent, to tolerate any heterodoxy. Any departure or criticism of Trump's world vision, even indirect, is a reason for excommunication.

Well, what is the worst?
Now that Trump has abandoned Ed Martin as a candidate to definitively hold the position of the DCUS lawyer – due to republican stomach burns on his buffoonemeries linked to January 6 (and not his recent targeting of Trump's perceived political enemies, of course) – the president would have thought of another Trollish option for, at least temporarily, to direct the office. PER ABC News::
President Donald Trump Strongly plan to install the host of Fox News and former prosecutor Jeanine Pirro as an American interim lawyer for the District of Columbia, said sources familiar with the ABC News affair.
Double
In what seems to be an attempt to help the Republicans who are stopped on how to run away with the caps of hooded cap in massive Medicaid reductions are a good thing – while the conference restaurants claim that they will not support a bill that will add to the deficit – Donald Trump would have informed the republicans of the Congress to … increase taxes.
It is a surprising and somewhat contradictory directive of the president who also wishes that the republican legislators extend his tax reductions of 2017, which mainly benefited the rich, within the framework of the same legislation. (It is also, obviously, a proposal for a policy historically supported by progressives, and not Trump and his billionaire friends and not by the Republicans at the Congress who are in an impasse.) Trump can consider the maneuver as a remedy, a means of breaking the Logjam which must be remunerated for the republicans of the house. In theory, it could meet the requirements of the Hardliners that the deficit does not increase or does not give the republicans of the house a little to breathe to reduce less Medicaid.
That the faction of the Republicans of the Chamber can swallow such a fiscal increase, in practice, is another matter.
From Wapo::
Trump, in a recent conversation with the chamber president, Mike Johnson (R-Louisiana), said that Congress should increase taxes on some of the highest wages, according to two familiar people with the president, who spoke subject to anonymity because they were not allowed to discuss the issue publicly.
Administration officials discussed several options to do so, in particular by allowing the highest tax rate to return to the levels of the Obama era. The Treasury Secretary, Scott Bessent, also floated by creating a new tax bracket for those who earn more than $ 5 million a year.
Investigate steroid investigators
Trump’s Ministry of Justice opened an investigation into the New York Attorney General, Letitia James, who led a fine that led to a fine of $ 354 million for Trump after a New York judge discovered that he and the Trump organization were responsible for inflating his wealth and assets to guarantee loans, among others. The Attorney General Pam Bondi returned the investigation in the North District of New York instead of SDNY. The declaration of the American lawyer's office in the North District of New York to the Union of time was inappropriate … at best.
“This was managed at that time by the principal (Ministry of) justice and the FBI office of the Albany FBI,” said American lawyer John A. Sarcone III, who oversees the American prosecutor's office in the North New York District. “We are ready to act in quality we need when and if we are informed, there are costs to be made. Unlike Letitia James, who has not ethically brought the state campaign to ensure that Donald Trump … My office behaves in an appropriate and professional manner. “
