Screenshot of a skeet with the pope saying: 
“Pope Leo XIV: Someone who says 'I'm against abortion' but says 'I'm in favor of the death penalty' is not really pro-life.
Someone who says that 'I'm against abortion but I'm in agreement with the inhuman treatment of immigrants who are in the United States, ' I don't know if that's pro-life.”
And a skeet below it by Sarah Kelly saying: 
“The distinction between "Christian" faith and "Catholic" faith is actually kind of important here” 
Who is quote skeeting a post that says:

Hmmm… I wonder if any president has ever held a convention before the midterms and then went on a campaign trying to make the midterm elections about himself in an effort to save his floundering presidency, and how that worked out? Oh…..
The Campaign and Election of 1866
Although not a presidential election, the off-year congressional election of 1866 was in fact a referendum election for President Andrew Johnson.
By the summer of 1866, Johnson had lost support within the Republican Party for his Reconstruction policies. (See the Domestic Affairs section for details.) After a unity meeting of 7,000 delegates at the National Union Convention-which met in Philadelphia on August 14—failed to bridge the growing gap between Johnson and the Republicans, the determined President decided to take the issue to the people.
Beginning on August 28, accompanied by such notables as Civil War hero Admiral David Farragut, President Johnson launched an unprecedented speaking tour in the hopes of regaining public and political support. He traveled from Philadelphia to New York City, then through upstate New York and west to Ohio before heading back to Washington, D.C. This "swing around the circle" was marked by an intemperate campaign style in which Johnson personally attacked his Republican opponents in vile and abusive language reminiscent of his Tennessee stump speech harangues.In the end, the campaign was a disaster for Johnson. One observer later said that the President lost one million
Northern voters as a result of his tour.
In the congressional elections, the anti-Johnson Republicans won two-thirds of both houses, thus sealing Johnson's doom and giving his opponents enough power to override his programs. Later, the House of Representatives, in voting its articles of impeachment against Johnson, would charge him with disgracing his office by attempting to appeal directly to the people for support in the 1866 elections-something that was considered to be demagogic and beneath the dignity of a President at the time.

US history has conclusively proved that when the cops kill somebody, the immediate project becomes coming up with some crime to convict them with after the fact to frame the killing as deserved, to make them at fault for their own murder.
It can be anything at all. Doesn't even need to be a crime.

Oh my god…
In mid-November, I agreed to an experiment.
Anthropic had tested a vending machine powered by its Claude AI model in its own offices and asked whether we'd like to be the first outsiders to try a newer, supposedly smarter version.
Claudius, the customized version of the model, would run the machine: ordering inventory, setting prices and responding to customers-aka my fellow newsroom journalists-via workplace chat app Slack. "Sure!" I said. It sounded fun. If nothing else, snacks!
Then came the chaos. Within days, Claudius had given away nearly all its inventory for free— including a PlayStation 5 it had bron talked into buying for "marketing purposes." It ordered a live
fish. It offered to buy stun guns, pepper spray, cigarettes and underwear.
Profits collapsed. Newsroom morale soared.

Every lifelong Catholic l've ever met is like "I think we're supposed to give this food to poor people" and every adult convert is like "the Archon of Constantinople's epistle on the Pentacostine rites of the eucharist clearly states women shouldn't have driver's licenses."
