F.B.I. Said to Have Investigated Times Reporter After Article on Patel’s Girlfriend

FBI began investigating @nytimes.com reporter Elizabeth Williamson after she wrote about Patel using bureau personnel to provide his girlfriend with security and transportation. DOJ officials were concerned it was retaliation and found no legal basis to proceed. www.nytimes.com/2026/04/22/u...

It doesn't seem like the FBI investigating a journalist for exposing Patel spending tax $ to have a full-time FBI SWAT team guard his girlfriend will help him achieve his goal of stopping people from finding out he's spending their tax $ on stuff like having an FBI SWAT team guard his girlfriend.

It will never stop pissing me off how much trump is going to walk away from this presidency as a “real” billionaire in a way he never was before, and it is going to be solely because of the public office

After Trump’s Attack on Pope Leo, a Bomb Threat Came for His Brother in Suburban Chicago John Prevost is a retired Catholic school principal who plays Wordle with his brother the pope every morning. On Wednesday night, police evacuated his neighborhood.

NEW: After President Trump attacked Pope Leo XIV, a bomb threat was sent to the pontiff's older brother at his home in suburban Chicago.

John Prevost is a quiet Catholic school administrator.

Trump, in his post attacking Leo, singled out Leo’s other brother, Louis, as a supporter of the president.

Pope James David Vance the First The vice president has decided he’s a more accomplished theologian than Leo XIV.

Vance has now seized the top seat in the Death of Expertise Hall of Fame: He has lectured the pope—the pope, the leader of a billion and a half Catholics—about being too sloppy with theology.

The queen of all vices: Pride.

HOWLING

TIL that Good Friday isn't a stat holiday in the US

it is in Canada (though not mandatory in Quebec)

Cook Political moved Trump from Lean Antichrist to Solid Antichrist.

Pope Leo: "To put my message on the same plane as what the president has attempted to do here I think is not understanding what the message of the gospel is."

It's very funny that Trump thinks he can treat the Pope like a Republican member of Congress with an even more MAGA primary opponent.

Bless Pope Leo For Blasting Donald’s Stupid War Well said, sir.

The President of the United States is now attacking the Pope, the representative for Jesus Christ on Earth and the leader of the entire Catholic faith, for not endorsing his illegal war and blatant war crimes.

Of course it looks like Pope Leo is weak on crime, that's how Good Pope / Bad Pope works

I doubt that Pope Leo XIV will lose any sleep over this, before he begins his pilgrimage to Africa tomorrow. But the rest of us should. Because it is unhinged, uncharitable and unchristian. Is there no bottom to this moral squalor?

‘God does not bless any conflict’: pope issues new rebuke over Iran war Social media post names no names but criticizes attempts to use religion to glorify US war in Middle East

Pope Leo rebukes [indirectly] Donald Trump.

"Military action will not create space for freedom or times of #Peace ..."
