Still, #NFL & #MLB teams held moments of silence. #CSPAN covered Kirk’s memorial service live. #Cardinal #TimothyDolan recounted how, after Kirk’s death, he spent time researching & determined that #Kirk was a “modern day St. Paul” & a “hero” albeit “pretty blunt” & “pretty direct.” Mainstream news outlets such as #CNN & #CBS invited #JackPosobiec to come speak about his friend’s “life’s work,” & about how to “fill this void” Kirk had left behind.

Kirche-und-Leben.de - Warum US-Kardinal Kirk für einen „modernen Paulus “ hält https://www.kirche-und-leben.de/artikel/kardinal-timothy-dolan-erzbischof-new-york-charlie-kirk-attentat-ermordung-apostel-paulus-vergleich ein reaktionärer katholischer Kardinal #timothydolan vergleicht den rassistischen, rechtsextremen #kirk mit einem Heiligen u. ergänzt hier sieht man den wahren Jesus. Die katholische Kirche hat hier die Chance sich für Demokratie, Freiheit, Bürgerrechte zu positionieren auch um sich von dem fundamentalistisch reaktionären #Vance abzugrenzen. Die Wirklichkeit? Opportunistisches Schweigen🤮

"This reformist spirit will provoke fierce resistance not only from within the Vatican, but also from ultraconservative groups in the US, many of which have links to President Trump. Take the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops (USCCB), one of the most powerful lobbying groups in the US. Its 274 active members include New York’s Cardinal Timothy Dolan, a longstanding Trump supporter."

"Pope Leo has criticised the emergence of nationalist political movements and their 'exclusionary mindset', without naming a specific country or leader.

Leo, the first pope from the US, asked during a mass on Sunday with tens of thousands in St Peter’s Square that God 'open borders, break down walls [and] dispel hatred'."

"The bishops' collective silence in the face of Donald Trump's vile and treasonous behavior (remember, this is a man who encouraged a violent attack on the US Capitol and then gave a presidential pardon to those who perpetrated it), gave cover to 59% of Catholics who were among the 77 million people who voted for him."

"Many are watching to see what the pope does with Timothy Dolan of New York. The gregarious cardinal, who only recently turned 75, was – from the very start – a ringleader of the USCCB's resistance to the late Pope Francis. And not only that.

Dolan has also been – and continues to be – the US Catholic Church's friendliest face vis-a-vie Donald Trump."
