There wasn't a peep from these people when everyone was imprisoned in their own homes for literally no reason, when funerals were illegal even if you wore a hazmat suit, when hugging your grandmother was a felony i dont believe in deporting them to atlantis but https://t.co/0e5ZNSQsxB

The papal funeral ceremony gives us a last remaining glimpse into the protocols of a 4th century Roman emperor.

Yes, @JamesMelville but how do you really feel about him?

Welp, there you have it…

Very thoughtful. As a long-time student of conciliarist theory, I sometimes wonder if there are other paths to choosing a Supreme Pontiff.

Gray Connolly @GrayConnolly

My fellow Catholics would do well to remember at Mass & in prayer the Papal Chamberlain (Camerlengo of the Holy Roman Church), and the members of the Papal Household & Swiss Guard, etal, who have also lost our Pope & whose work over coming months will be very trying.✝️🇻🇦 https://t.co/WKfZhLBDMM

Where's Mr Waverly? When I was nine I sent a fan letter to Leo G Carroll, thanking him for his wonderful portrayal of UNCLE's head--really a reiteration of his role in North By Northwest. All I got back was an invitation to join the David McCallum fan club. Hollywood!

Good ol’ numbers 2 and 11.

The pressure to stay estranged from Moscow will be intense. Putin won't help. We'll see. Or will Trump choose to try to settle with both China and Russia at once, in order to defuse international tensions and let him focus on reforms at home?

Greg R. Lawson @ConservaWonk

@ArthurLHerman You seem to express some doubt that Russia will ever triangulate with China. That is certainly a legitimate perspective, as there is no Sino-Soviet split right now for Trump to take advantage of as Nixon & Kissinger were able to do in their time. However, can a Russia with a

They have to build it first. There are ways to prevent that from happening. Unfortunately for some, it will mean constructive engagement with Russia.

Wonderful film, beautiful performances: A Lean masterpiece.

DonPJenn @DonPJenn

What an opening! The unforgettable Finlay Currie as Abel Magwitch and Tony Wager as Pip in 'Great Expectations' directed by David Lean in 1946. Who can forget the chilling words of Magwitch: " "Get me a file and whittles or I'll have your heart and Liver out." https://t.co/PyEJrytunG
