In a very brief medical bulletin issued via the Holy See Press Office, doctors treating Pope Francis attested to a continued improvement in his condition, an improvement which they have documented since March 10.

They wrote:

The Holy Father’s clinical condition continues to improve. The Holy Father has suspended non-invasive mechanical ventilation and also reduced the need for high-flow oxygen therapy.

Progress continues in motor and respiratory physiotherapy.

This morning, on the solemnity of St. Joseph, the Holy Father concelebrated Holy Mass.

The Pew Religious Landscape Study (RLS) for Catholics from 2007, 2014, and 2023-24 offers a sobering glimpse into this crisis for traditional Catholics rooted in the Magisterium’s truths: for every 100 Catholics entering, 800 Catholics leave, prayer is declining, belief in God is plummeting, and a super majority supports issues deemed morally evil by the Church – demographically propped up by immigrants yet spiritually adrift.

While the sharp declines from 2007 to 2014 have slowed by 2023-24, the downward trend persists, demanding urgent reflection.

Trump eyes Ukraine’s power plants, as he pushes peace plan on Zelensky– www.washingtonexaminer.com

Excerpt:

‘A FANTASTIC PHONE CONVERSATION’: President Donald Trump is a big fan of being told what he wants to hear, and both Russian President Vladimir Putin and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky have played to that character trait to stay on Trump’s good side while pursuing their own agendas.

In a one-hour phone call with Trump yesterday, Zelensky was heavy on gratitude while treading carefully about his reservations as he discussed the next steps in Trump’s plan to end the war and divide up Ukraine by ceding a large swath of the east to Russia.

It was “a fantastic phone conversation,” according to a readout provided by Secretary of State Marco Rubio and national security adviser Mike Waltz. “Zelensky thanked President Trump for the support of the United States, especially the Javelin missiles that President Trump was first to provide, and his efforts towards peace.”

Democrats in Congress Drive Luxury Cars on Taxpayer Dime– freebeacon.com

Excerpt:

Rep. Jasmine Crockett (D., Texas) declared in February that the government is “not in the business of giving out money” to taxpayers. But when it comes to the simple luxuries in her own life, the firebrand lawmaker is happy to let the public foot the bill.

That includes her taxpayer-funded car. Crockett has billed the public $999.96 every month since she assumed office in January 2023 to pay for a “vehicle lease,” according to House disbursement records reviewed by the Washington Free Beacon. It’s unclear the make and model of Crockett’s publicly financed whip—lawmakers are not required to disclose that information and her office did not return a request for comment—but it’s enough to pay for a Tesla Model S, Elon Musk’s luxury sports sedan, which leases for $998 per month.

Crockett obtained her taxpayer-funded vehicle through a little-known fringe benefit that allows representatives to bill the public for a fresh set of EPA-approved wheels to traverse their congressional districts. Some 42 lawmakers participated in the program in 2024, including 15 Republican participants who represent geographically expansive districts that average 18,100 square miles each. The Republican participants primarily leased economy vehicles from American manufacturers, with several of their offices telling the Free Beacon that leasing a vehicle is a far more cost-effective way for the lawmakers to traverse their massive districts as opposed to paying for airfare or using their personal vehicle at the IRS reimbursement rate of 67 cents per mile.

Venezuelan deportation judge “beating a dead horse,” DOJ says in scathing reply – Axios

Excerpt:

The Department of Justice continued Wednesday to push back against a federal judge’s request for information about Venezuelan migrant deportations and whether it defied a court order, saying the request is “continuing to beat a dead horse.”

The big picture: It’s the latest response in the back and forth between the Trump administration and U.S. District Judge James Boasberg, who has repeatedly requested that the government provide details on the migrant deportation flights conducted over the weekend.

  • Boasberg extended the filing deadline to Thursday from Tuesday’s initial deadline for the DOJ to answer his questions regarding flight departure times and the passengers aboard the flights.
  • When the DOJ resisted answering in its Tuesday filing citing concerns about “sensitive information bearing on foreign relations” being made public, Boasberg agreed they could do so under seal.

‘There’s Some Kind of Mental Illness’ Behind Tesla Attacks – PJ Media– pjmedia.com

Excerpt:

In a Fox News interview Tuesday evening, Elon Musk expressed his shock and frustration over the rising tide of violence directed at his company, Tesla.

Host Sean Hannity opened the discussion by addressing the disturbing reports he had seen about Tesla vehicles being targeted across the country. “I woke up this morning and saw that Teslas were put ablaze in one of your dealerships in Vegas,” Hannity said. He went on to explain that similar attacks have occurred all over the nation, adding that “bullets are being fired, charging stations are put ablaze. Teslas are being put ablaze.” He also brought up the serious threats against Musk and his family, noting, “You have experienced assassination threats of assassination for you and your family. What have you done that warrants this?”

Musk, clearly taken aback by the level of hostility, responded by describing the attacks as “a shock.” He expressed disbelief at the hatred directed toward him and his company, especially considering his understanding of the political left. “Yeah, I mean, it’s really come as quite a shock to me that there is this level of really hatred and violence from the left,” he said. “I always thought the left, or Democrats, were supposed to be the party of empathy, the party of caring.”

“Not only do they exist, they persist. And they’re actually influencing young kids every single day.”

Minnesota Governor and former Democratic vice presidential candidate Tim Walz appeared on California Governor Gavin Newsom’s new podcast where the two talked about how the Democratic Party is losing support among young male voters.

During the latest episode of This is Gavin Newsom, the two governors spoke about the ongoing issues in the Democratic Party regarding support among young men. Newsom, who previously interviewed high-profile conservative commentators Charlie Kirk and Steve Bannon, explained to Walz why these right-wing voices are resonating with young male voters and the working class.

“We’re losing them to these guys online, we’re losing them to people that I’m bringing on this podcast as well, that’s why I brought on Charlie Kirk,” Newsom said, to which Walz claimed that they were “bad guys.”

“But they exist,” Newsom responded, “and we can deny they exist, they exist—not only do they exist, they persist. And they’re actually influencing young kids every single day.”

Walz asked how to “push some of those guys back under a rock,” to which Newsom said, “I think we have to first understand what their motivations are, I think we have to understand what they’re actually doing.”

Excerpt:

Failed Democrat vice presidential candidate Tim Walz has faced a backlash online after he mocked the slide in stock prices of Elon Musk’s company Tesla.

Walz said that he frequently checks Tesla‘s stock price to get a little “boost” of happiness.

However, he was brutally shot down by Musk’s response to his remarks.

Many on the left have taken aim at Musk’s companies to protest his support of and participation in the Trump administration.

Amazingly, much of the Left’s anger toward Musk appears to be due to his role as a senior advisor for Trump’s Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE).

Mexican cartel members are “running scared” and fearful of President Donald Trump’s crackdown on illegal immigration, according to the sheriff of Tarrant County, Texas.

Like many local law enforcement officials, Sheriff Bill Waybourn has witnessed the sharp spike in illegal immigration over the past four years. He welcomed the increased enforcement from the federal government.

The Tarrant County jail currently holds over 300 illegal aliens suspected of criminal activity.

“They represent 22 different countries,” Waybourn said recently at a Heritage Foundation event in Dallas. “Some of them are going to be known terrorists, some of them are going to be known cartel soldiers, and the like.”
