"Jesus is silent, not because he has nothing to speak, but because he will not follow the logic of verbal violence. His silence is a refusal to participate in the game of power that crushes. It is a silence that refrains from fueling the cycle of evil, nor does it seek to hurt anyone" - Quote from the Palm Sunday Meditation of H.B. Card. Pizzaballa

@Isaac_Herzog @cusackandrew “Express my great sorrow” should read “apologize,” Mr. President. This is unacceptable.

I just called the Latin Patriarch of Jerusalem, His Beatitude Cardinal Pierbattista Pizzaballa, to express my great sorrow over this morning's unfortunate incident in the Old City of Jerusalem, in which Cardinal Pizzaballa and the Custos of the Holy Land, the Most Reverend Fr. Francesco Ielpo, were prevented from entering the Church of the Holy Sepulchre for prayers amid the ongoing security situation. I clarified that the incident stemmed from security concerns due to the continuous threat of missile attacks from the Iranian terror regime against the civilian population in Israel, following previous incidents in which Iranian missiles fell in the area of the Old City of Jerusalem in recent days. I reaffirmed the State of Israel's unwavering commitment to freedom of religion for all faiths and to upholding the status quo at the holy sites of Jerusalem.

@GovMikeHuckabee A formal apology should follow as well, sir. This is completely unacceptable.

My statement re Prohibiting the Latin Patriarch of entering Church of Holy Sepulcher on Palm Sunday: While all Holy sites in the Old City are closed due to safety concerns for mass gatherings including the Western Wall, Church of the Holy Sepulcher and Al Aqsa Mosque, the action today by the Israel Nat'l Police to deny Latin Patriarch Cardinal Pierbattista Pizzaballa and 3 other priests from entering the Church to offer a blessing on Palm Sunday is an unfortunate overreach already having major repercussions around the world.  Home Front Command Guidelines restrict any gatherings to 50 people or less.  The 4 representatives of the Catholic Church were well below that restriction.  Statements from the Gov't of Israel indicate the action to prohibit Cardinal Pizzaballa entry to the Church of the Holy Sepulcher were for safety reasons, but churches, synagogues, and mosques throughout Jerusalem have met with the restrictions of 50 or less.  For the Patriarch to be barred from entry to the Church on Palm Sunday for a private ceremony is difficult to understand or justify. Israel has indicated it will work with the Patriarch to accommodate a safe means of carrying out Holy Week activities.

@GilletteStadium @equipedefrance @CBF_Futebol Allez les Bleus !

An unforgettable matchup 🇧🇷🇫🇷⚽️🤩

@ctrlamb Pope Restores Order

Holy See Press office — Pope Leo XIV will this afternoon move into the Vatican’s Apostolic Palace where he’ll live with his closest collaborators. He’ll move to the quarters previously occupied by his predecessors.

'St. Paddy's Day' is usually preferred over 'St. Patty's Day.' 'Paddy' is the shortened form of the original Irish spelling of 'Patrick,' which is 'Pádraig.' 'Patty' is the shortened form of 'Patricia.'

@JeffreyHaynes2 @EvanMarinofsky Where did they play and who was their opponent?

@EvanMarinofsky Crazy how small the crowd is. When we (Thayer) won it 86/87 it was standing room only

No. 8 Avon Old Farms takes down No. 2 St. Mark’s, 4-2, to win the NEPSAC boys Elite 8 title. Avon took down No. 1 Dexter, No. 5 Hotchkiss and No. 2 St. Mark’s en route to the championship.

@EvanMarinofsky The impressiveness of that run can’t be overstated. In a lot of ways, this win vindicates those teams who lost to them on their home ice. @CarlCorazzini is an extraordinary person who will undoubtedly return and win this game with @SMBoysHockey

Luke Kornet is requesting the Hawks cancel tonight's "Magic City Monday" theme night with the iconic Atlanta strip club. "The NBA should desire to protect and esteem women."

@AlexAgrellaRB Football, correct?

The NEPSAC and MIAA world is crazy right now. There are a number of high profile jobs that are open. NEPSAC -Brooks -Belmont Hill -Phillips Andover -Kent MIAA: -Central Catholic -Attleboro -Northbridge -Wellesley This movement could create even more movement.

@AdamSchefter They’ve also been the most. Bad take.

History: The Patriots now have lost their sixth Super Bowl, more than any other NFL franchise.

@kevin_ahern He single-handedly made Cardinal O’Malley and others airport bishops

As we watch bishops travel around I am reminded how Pope Francis often lamented what he called “airport bishops” and canon law (395) prohibits a bishop leaving his diocese not beyond a month- continuous or interrupted.

@SavageSports_ Dumb take from an account I usually appreciate.

@nunblogger @PaulineBooks That’s a shame. We will continue to support you all and thank you for all you do. @USCCB another bad decision I hope you will reconsider.

@mcguirkt @PaulineBooks We had hoped to release a new one-volume edition, but other publishers were chosen.

Hmmm. I wonder if there is someone out there who wants to provide similarly for the sisters....

@hockey_east Thank you for your thoughtful approach on this one @HECommish Perfect number of games, and important statement that that behavior is not acceptable in #cawlidgehockey

Hockey East has announced supplemental discipline: hockeyeastonline.com/articles/2026/…

@cecsquared A great initiative started by @rfkram thebostonpilot.com/article.php?ID…

The Archdiocese of Boston is offering a Celebration of Convalidation on Valentine’s Day for a couples who want to make their marriage valid and sacramental in the Church. How cool is that?

@NaffahZach @QU_MIH @RandPecknold @Dartmouth_MIH @Q30Sports Coach @RandPecknold has done more to elevate @ecachockey than anyone in the last 15 years. His standard of excellence has made every other program better.
