I suspect Francis had to suppress his first impulse, which was to yell, “¡Ahí él sopla! ¡La gran ballena blanca!”

Not so subtle headdresses worn for the Pope while crowing about not wearing a hijab in SA. Dogwhistle.

Check the photo in Josh’s blog post with Trump beside the Pope. Trump clearly turned to the side slightly to place his arm in front of the Pope, effectively placing the Pope behind him as a show of dominance.

Pope looks like he’s having a grand old time in every picture, eh? Just can’t get himself enough Trump…

Maybe? Given the church’s history with ergot hallucinations though, maybe he was wondering if Trumpymonkeybaby ate some bad bread or is shrooming all the time…

To clarify: “Model” here is used in the acronymical “AMW” context of the time: “Actress, Model, Whatever.”

Whatever taking the bulk of her time and energy.

So here’s the question: was the pope briefed (I assume he has speechwriters) or does he just happen to know things like traditional desserts of all nations?

Now this is a news story, TPM.

Manchester attack: US leaks about bomber irritating - Rudd

BBC assistant political editor Norman Smith said Ms Rudd’s irritation stemmed from the fact “crucial information about the investigation” had been “leaked to the media in the US”.

She had been concerned that this “might have compromised aspects of the investigation”, namely that it may have “alerted associates” of the bomber “that the security forces here knew who they were looking for”.

He added: “Ms Rudd, I’m told, got on the blower to US officials and gave them a piece of her mind. Officials say they are in no doubt about our views on that.”

What cracks me up is the look on the Pope’s face in all the pictures of him and Trump.

“You’ve got to be fucking kidding me.”

If I had a superpower, I would want it to be to have an intimate familiarity with the deserts of all nations.

That, and the ability to make robocalling computers explode.
