Pope Leo has a video presentation and a public mass planned for June 14. In Chicago, at Rate Field. The pope won’t be there in person. He’s gonna Skype it. https://chicago.suntimes.com/pope-leo-xiv/2025/05/28/pope-leo-xiv-video-message-mass-rate-field “.Once in a lifetime event” scheduled more or less concurrently with the Mushroom Parade?

Figured this thread had been bumped because Leon is xitting all over the big beautiful bill and its deficit exploding tax giveaways to billionaires, but was pleasantly surprised by Chop’s post.

Purple is associated with honor and bravery. TIL, the Purple Heart’s history evolved from the Badge of Distinction and Merit, which was conceived by George Washington. That badge gave way, over time, to congressionally enacted awards, the Medal of Honor, the Distinguished Service Medal and Distinguished Service Cross. It was US Army Chief of Staff Douglas MacArthur who repurposed and renamed Washington’s badge to the Purple Heart in 1932. https://www.nationalww2museum.org/war/articles/history-of-the-purple-heart- The coup thread. Fuck the traitors to the Constitution.
Congress has passed laws later ruled to be unconstitutional. Until such a ruling, those laws, at a minimum, provide cover, and perhaps immunity, for some individual official acts.- Comic Relief: Satirical Tweets and Memes
