One cannot love God without extending one’s love to the poor. Love for our neighbor is tangible proof of the authenticity of our love for God. The Lord himself teaches us: “Truly I tell you, just as you did it to one of the least of these my brethren, you did it to me” (Mt 25:40). #DilexiTe

Here’s a quick fact check of 11 (of the) false claims President Trump made to the US military on an aircraft carrier in Japan this morning: - Grocery prices aren’t “way down.” They’re up. - Inflation hasn’t been “defeated.” It’s rising. - Trump hasn’t secured “$17 trillion” in investment. The US doesn't have "92%" of Gulf of Mexico/America shoreline. (Alleged) drug boats don’t each kill “25,000 people.” All of these figures are fictional. - Trump didn’t win the 2020 election he lost. - Trump didn’t end eight wars. It’s also not true that no other president ever ended a war. - Biden didn’t let in 25 million migrants. Biden didn’t claim to be a pilot. Inflation under Biden peaked at the worst in 40 years but was never close to the worst in history. Link for more info:  cnn.com/2025/10/28/pol…
