The Mean Girls Presidency nytimes.com/…pinion/donald-trump-administration-m… Sept. 27, 2026 By Molly Jong-Fast Ms. Jong-Fast is a contributing Opinion writer. I was once a teenage girl, but not a very cool one. I never had the right vintage jeans. I never wore the right high-heeled Free Lance boots, the ones that all the cool girls had. I think about this a lot while watching how Donald Trump runs the White House and the world alongside a high school clique of dumb jocks (Pete Hegseth!) and hot cheerleaders (Natalie Harp!) and nerdy suck-ups (Mike Johnson!). My Queen Bee — my Regina George from “Mean Girls,” my Cher Horowitz from “Clueless” — wasn’t the president of the United States, but at the time she felt arbitrarily powerful, profoundly charismatic and definitely wealthier than I was. She bullied me about my weight and lack of style. She had her friends shun me, too. My peers were rewarded with the social relevance that comes from pleasing the top of the food chain. Now, looking at …Ebisinga

Rev. Joseph was seven when he saw his father murder his mother. Decades later, he became a Catholic priest. Born Youssef in Cluses in the French Alps, he was seven when he returned from a ski camp and found his father stabbing his mother. She died hours later. His father was imprisoned and Youssef placed in foster care. At 18, he was expelled. Alcoholism cost him his work and housing, and he spent three years living on a bench in Grenoble. There, a priest named Gérard greeted him daily. After three years, Gérard sat beside him and invited him for coffee—the start of Youssef’s recovery. After three detoxifications and two rehabilitation stays, he became sober, converted to Catholicism and took the name Joseph. He later travelled to his father’s grave in Constantine, Algeria, where he says he forgave him. Joseph entered seminary at 44 and was ordained for the Archdiocese of Paris in 2020. He now serves at the Basilica of Sacré-Cœur in Montmartre.
Leo XIV rejected assisted dying at Lourdes, warning against “false compassion” and declaring that “what is legal is not necessarily moral.” Pope Leo XIV on Sunday strongly rejected euthanasia while addressing sick and disabled people and healthcare workers at the Sanctuary of Lourdes, France. Speaking at the Accueil Notre-Dame, Leo XIV said the human person is “worthy” simply by virtue of existing and that human dignity “cannot be measured or debated.” “No human law should ever make you lose the certainty of your dignity,” he said. He continued: “We must reject the temptation to cause death under the guise of false compassion.” Leo XIV added: “It is impossible to regard causing death as something normal. What is legal is not necessarily moral.” Turning directly to healthcare workers, he said their vocation is “to care for a suffering person, not to eliminate that person.” The Pope also repeated a warning he made in June that medicine must never become “the servant of programmed death,”…Ebisinga
“Encounter” (Encontro) is a white-marble sculpture by Portuguese architect and artist Álvaro Siza Vieira, unveiled in the Vatican Gardens on September 24. The anthropomorphic work depicts a slender, stylized figure positioned near an olive tree and facing the dome of St. Peter’s Basilica. It was previously displayed as part of the Holy See Pavilion at the 2023 Venice Biennale. At the unveiling, Vatican Governor Sister Raffaella Petrini described it as an encounter between art, the Pope’s gardens, and the community. Open to individual interpretation, the sculpture is intended to evoke care for our “Common Home,” fraternity, peace, and a “culture of encounter.”
New sculpture installed in Vatican gardens: My first associations are a giant outdoor Wi-Fi router, a solar-powered parking meter, a minimalist surveillance camera, a patio table growing out of a bollard, or an unfinished Starlink terminal for the Vatican.

Il a poursuivi : « Nous devons rejeter la tentation de provoquer la mort sous le couvert d’une fausse compassion. » Léon XIV a ajouté : « Il est impossible de considérer le fait de causer la mort comme quelque chose de normal. Ce qui est légal n’est pas nécessairement moral. » S’adressant directement aux professionnels de santé, il a déclaré …Ebisinga

Book of Job 1,6-22. One day, when the angels of God came to present themselves before the LORD, And the LORD said to Satan, "Whence do you come?" Then Satan answered the LORD and said, "From roaming the earth and patrolling it." And the LORD said to Satan, "Have you noticed my servant Job, and that there is no one on earth like him, blameless and upright, fearing God and avoiding evil?" But Satan answered the LORD and said, "Is it for nothing that Job is God-fearing? Have you not surrounded him and his family and all that he has with your protection? You have blessed the work of his hands, and his livestock are spread over the land. But now put forth your hand and touch anything that he has, and surely he will blaspheme you to your face." And the LORD said to Satan, "Behold, all that he has is in your power; only do not lay a hand upon his person." So Satan went forth from the presence of the LORD. And so one day, while his sons and his daughters were eating and drinking wine in the …Ebisinga
Buch Ijob 1,6-22. Es geschah eines Tages, da kamen die Gottessöhne, um vor den HERRN hinzutreten; unter ihnen kam auch der Satan. Der HERR sprach zum Satan: Woher kommst du? Der Satan antwortete dem HERRN und sprach: Die Erde habe ich durchstreift, hin und her. Der HERR sprach zum Satan: Hast du auf meinen Knecht Ijob geachtet? Seinesgleichen gibt es nicht auf der Erde: ein Mann untadelig und rechtschaffen, er fürchtet Gott und meidet das Böse. Der Satan antwortete dem HERRN und sagte: Geschieht es ohne Grund, dass Ijob Gott fürchtet? Bist du es nicht, der ihn, sein Haus und all das Seine ringsum beschützt? Das Tun seiner Hände hast du gesegnet; sein Besitz hat sich weit ausgebreitet im Land. Aber streck nur deine Hand gegen ihn aus und rühr an all das, was sein ist; wahrhaftig, er wird dich ins Angesicht segnen. Der HERR sprach zum Satan: Gut, all sein Besitz ist in deiner Hand, nur gegen ihn selbst streck deine Hand nicht aus! Darauf ging der Satan weg vom Angesicht des HERRN. Nun …Ebisinga
