It appears that Jared Kushner still hasn't filed his personal financial disclosure. Given that he may be leading a delegation to Ukraine this month, it's urgent that the American public has insight into his conflicts of interest. bloomberg.com/news/articles/…

Northwest Georgia made this a race nobody can ignore. But we have Clay Fuller over here saying Trump is the most critical factor. That tells you everything, and makes clear he sold his soul. Guess what? I’m here to answer to THE PEOPLE of Northwest Georgia, not one man. #GA14

The University of Michigan has been measuring consumer sentiment since 1952. We just got the first Iran-afflicted measure for April, and it's at the lowest level ever recorded.

@antoniospadaro on that Pentagon meeting. Whatever happened during it, the Vatican diplomat was doing what Vatican diplomacy does.

On tomorrow's peace vigil, which this Theravada Buddhist will be keeping, too. X translated excerpt: "...To lay down arms is to let go of the idea of settling things by force. To pray is to acknowledge that the source of peace lies beyond one's own power. These two are not separate things..."
山本芳久 (Yoshihisa Yamamoto)@201yos1

「祈り」で現実は動くのか。 教皇レオ十四世は、停戦を歓迎したその同じ声明の中で、平和のための祈りの徹夜祭へと招いた。 4月8日の一般謁見の末尾で教皇は、対話への意志が世界の他の紛争の解決にも役立つよう、祈りをもって支えてほしいと呼びかけた。教皇にとって、対話は祈りと切り離されたものではない。祈りによって支えられるとき、対話は平和への道になる。 トマス・アクィナスにとって、祈り(oratio)は現実逃避ではない。祈りとは、ふさわしい善——人が真に必要としているもの——を神に願い求める理性的行為であり(petitio decentium a Deo)、その祈りにおいて人は、自分の善の源を神に負っていることを言い表す(『神学大全』II-II, q.83)。だから祈りは、行動の反対ではない。むしろ、相手を力で屈服させようとする暴力の論理を拒みつつ、現実に関わるもう一つの仕方である。 武器を置くとは、武力で決着をつけようとする発想を手放すことだ。祈るとは、平和の源が自分の力の外にあると認めることだ。この二つは、別々のことではない。 平和のための祈りの徹夜祭は、明日4月11日、サン・ピエトロ大聖堂にて。ローマ時間18時(日本時間4月12日午前1時)。教皇は、現地だけでなく、自宅から祈りを合わせる人々をも招いている。

I think he has many supporters (among them, this Buddhist). The key point is not to be silent anywhere, in vocal support everywhere and not just online. That is very difficult sometimes, but it is eminently doable and the rewards both personally and in a world-changing-good way are many. Do it, please. thelettersfromleo.com/p/more-voices-…

I was reading something last night from 1935 that also describes the Catholic tradition of thought, this time from a POV of the older Protestant-Catholic dichotomy. This tradition of *thought* is longstanding and very praiseworthy. #EMANCIPATION" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">gkc.org.uk/gkc/books/Well…

Pope Leo is not “left” or “right.” The Catholic tradition of thought does not fit within the stunted and myopic categories of American politics born out of 90s talk radio.

Philadelphia DA Larry Krasner said presidential pardons cannot protect the Epstein network at the state level. State prosecutions are coming. Federal pardons cover federal crimes. State sex trafficking charges have no such shield.
