¡El Papa León XIV llegó a Montevideo! Después de 38 años, un Papa vuelve a pisar Uruguay. Así fue la emocionante llegada del Papa en la primera escala de su viaje por Sudamérica. Hace apenas unas semanas, todos rezábamos por su salud. Este viaje es fruto de esas oraciones. Y no podemos dejar de rezar por él: son 12 días, 3 países y miles de kilómetros, un viaje muy exigente. Bienvenido a Sudamérica, Papa León.

A 46-foot statue of Pope Leo XIV was installed in Callao, Peru, on Friday ahead of his scheduled visit to the country next week. Crews used a crane to assemble the sculpture after transporting it overnight from a workshop, drawing cheers from onlookers who shouted, "The Pope is a Chalaco," a term for people from Callao. The installation sits along the Costa Verde, where the pontiff is expected to pass during his visit on Nov. 11.

#Friday The beginning of the end of #ICE ? #immigration
After a blue wave swept Texas, the Houston mayor announces that he's ending local police cooperation with ICE to "reduce fear and anxiety across our community." The Houston Police Dept was forced to work with ICE after the Abbott threatened to pull more than $110 million in funding from the city. Now, with Gina Hinojosa taking control of the state, local police will let any illegal immigrant they encounter who doesn't have a jail worthy offense go free without notifying ICE.

‘Radical’ comes from a Latin word meaning "root." Because roots are the deepest part of a plant, ‘radical’ came to describe things understood as fundamental or essential. ‘Radical change’ was a change at the root of a system.

Pope Leo XIV departed Rome’s Fiumicino International Airport on Friday morning for his Apostolic Journey to Latin America, marking the sixth papal journey since the beginning of his pontificate. The ITA Airways aircraft carrying the Holy Father and the journalists accompanying him took off at 7:05 a.m. From 6 to 17 November, the Holy Father will visit Uruguay, Argentina, and Peru. The Pope's journey will begin in Montevideo, Uruguay, where he will meet with civil and political authorities and celebrate Vespers with the local Church. He will then travel to Argentina, visiting Buenos Aires, Córdoba, and Luján, before continuing to Peru, where he will visit Lima, Chiclayo, Cusco, and Pucallpa. During the 12-day journey, Pope Leo is expected to visit ten cities, make approximately a dozen flights, and deliver nearly 40 addresses in Spanish. vaticannews.va/en/pope/news/…

Jay Rockefeller, who served as West Virginia's governor and U.S. senator and was the last member of his family's political dynasty, died Thursday night at the age of 89. Rockefeller, a Democrat and the scion of one of the nation's richest families, spent a half century in public service in one of the poorest states. He arrived in 1964 as a worker in an anti-poverty program, was elected governor a dozen years later. He served two terms and then spent 30 years as a U.S. senator. Read more: cbsn.ws/3VaDyK7

#Friday Days after the #2026midterms. #Politics it’s never about right or left, it’s about #money, #corruption & greed. In addition to cruelty & inhumane treatment of those outside of the #corruption ring; meaning those that oppose their moral & financial corruption.
I'm less impressed by how @ossoff speaks (though he's terrific at that too) and more impressed by what he says. This 2-minute clip is the best explanation of Trump corruption that I've ever heard. His explanation of the Russian dirty deals is so accurate and so clear. He knows the facts cold. And he explains them better than I can.
