Pope Leo visits Lourdes and criticizes legalization of assisted dying as 'false compassion'

Pope Leo XIV criticized the legalization of medically assisted dying , calling it immoral and an example of false compassion during a visit on Sunday to Lourdes, the Catholic shrine in France associated with miraculous cures of the sick. It is precisely in the name of this inalienable dignity of the human person that we must reject the temptation to cause death under the guise of false compassion, said Leo, prompting applause from the crowd gathered to see him. What is legal is not necessarily moral. On his third day in France, Leo again waded into the end-of-life debate that has erupted in countries around the world. It roiled French politics for years before resulting recently in legislation allowing adults with incurable illnesses to receive lethal medication. Leo's visit to the once staunchly Catholic and officially secular France has been marked by huge crowds 800,000 at Leo's Mass on Paris' iconic Place de la Concorde and his messaging against abortion and assisted dying. Many who attended the pope's Mass on Sunday were in wheelchairs, and he later visited a care center for sick people on Lourdes' grounds. He sought to encourage those who live in terrible pain that they have inherent dignity that no law or algorithm can eliminate. Lourdes became a major pilgrimage destination after the Catholic Church officially recognized visions of the Virgin Mary reported here by a young girl in 1858. The site near the Spanish border draws millions of pilgrims each year, especially sick and disabled believers hoping for a cure from the famed spring water in the Lourdes grotto where the visions purportedly occurred. Since arriving in France, Leo has repeatedly called for a renewed respect for life in keeping with Catholic teaching that all human life must be protected and defended from conception until natural death. The teaching translates into firm opposition to abortion, euthanasia and medically assisted dying. In Lourdes, where the church has recognized 72 miraculous cures as authentic, the question of respecting even the most frail, sick and vulnerable is particularly acute. Your crutches, your wheelchairs and your hidden tears are not obstacles; instead, they are the very place where you are fully respected and welcomed, Leo said in his homily. Lourdes is blessed as a place for professing the beauty and sanctity of life, for life is welcomed here as a precious gift from God. Leo meets with clergy abuse survivors More recently, Lourdes has also become a place of healing for survivors of clergy sexual abuse. Leo met with seven survivors on Sunday, including one who was abused as an adult, in recognition of the new frontier of the abuse crisis facing the church. Survivors described the pope as sincere despite some differences of opinion following the two-hour meeting. There was something sincere with him. Every word was chosen; every word had a meaning. There were many emotions, Jrme Guillement said. Guillement told a local French TV station that they talked about abuse prevention at all levels. There are different opinions, but from his point of view, there is a systemic dimension that still exists, he said. Olivier Mardi said the pope understands that he must work with victims. He reacted well to our very concrete proposals ... He said that we must reopen hope, and it takes seriousness to seize it, Mardi told France's LCI news channel. The French church has endured a brutal reckoning with its legacy of abuse. An independent report in 2021 estimated 330,000 children had been abused over 70 years by some 3,000 priests and church workers. Despite criticism of the report's methodology and conclusions, French bishops put in place an independent system of compensation for victims that to date has recommended the church pay out more than 20 million euros, or $22.7 million. During a meeting with French bishops on Sunday morning, Leo praised their response to victims and urged them to continue. But he also acknowledged that the cratering in priestly vocations in the French church is related to the scandal, given the priesthood is now sometimes viewed with suspicion. For priestly vocations to flourish, the priest must be welcomed, accepted, and loved, Leo said. On the day Leo arrived in Paris, a group of victims wrote an open letter asking him to acknowledge the church's responsibility in the scandal, highlighting what critics see as the conflict of interest of bishops being asked to be both spiritual fathers to their priests and judges when they abuse. The Church must relinquish its position as both judge and party to the proceedings, the victims wrote in the letter published by French newspaper Liberation. The victims also complained that only seven of them would meet with Leo, chosen by the church. Monsignor Pierre-Antoine Bozo, spokesperson for the bishops' conference, said Leo intentionally wanted to keep the group small to facilitate an intimate encounter. When it comes to listening to them, you can't have 50 people in front of you, he said. So I think that's really what the pope chose: to listen so that we can act and respond more effectively. In Lourdes, Leo was also reminded of a prickly abuse case inherited from Pope Francis. The faade of one of the Lourdes basilicas was designed by the Rev. Marko Rupnik, a religious mosaic artist. Rupnik is currently on trial in a Vatican court, accused by more than two dozen women of having psychologically, spiritually and sexually abused them starting in the 1990s, including during the creation of his artworks. His case was covered up for three decades by his Jesuit superiors, and even Francis was suspected of having protected his fellow Jesuit. In response to a media outcry, Francis ordered a canonical trial in 2024, which is ongoing. In a letter to Leo ahead of his trip, five women who say they were abused by Rupnik praised Micas' decision to cover the mosaics. But they criticized the Vatican's handling of their case and the three decades it has taken for them to be heard. This prolonged and loud silence has been experienced by us, the victims, as a further, continuous violence, they wrote.

Trump says U.S.-Iran talks will continue this week despite rejecting latest offer

U.S. and Iranian officials said Sunday they still see a chance of a negotiated solution to the Iran war despite President Donald Trumps rejection of Tehrans latest offer. Trump told Axios on Sunday that he expected U.S. negotiators to continue indirect talks with Iran this week. Subscribe to The Post Most newsletter for the most important and interesting stories from The Washington Post. But hostile rhetoric on both sides underscored the difficulty of any diplomatic efforts. We are fully prepared for the war to be resumed. We stand firm in the face of any new aggression, even if it comes to a doomsday war, Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi told NBC News on Sunday. At the same time, he said, we stand ready for diplomacy. It is up to President Trump to choose. If they are serious that they want a deal to reopen the Strait of Hormuz, now there is the possibility, Araghchi said. On Saturday, Trump said he had rejected Irans latest proposal to end the war. They want to make a deal where they open the strait immediately because theyre losing so badly, Trump told reporters. But Axios reported that Trump had confirmed during a Sunday phone interview that there were plans for indirect talks. I expect more talks with Iran [this week]. They want to make a deal, but it is not the deal that I want to make. It is what we would have maybe agreed to a year ago. They overplayed their hand, Trump said, according to Axios. U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations Mike Waltz told NBC Newss Meet the Press that the recent Iranian proposal was a cynical attempt to put something on the table that they knew was unacceptable. The proposal included demands that the United States lift sanctions on Iran, release frozen assets and end the U.S. naval blockade on Iranian ports, he said. At the end of the day, of course, this has to end in some type of arrangement. But hes going to leave all options on the table to get there, Waltz told NBC News. Araghchi had said Tehrans offer was similar to the memorandum of understanding both sides reached in June. Both Araghchi and Waltz accused the others country of engaging in negotiations only to violate their terms. Again they offered negotiation, again we accepted, and again they attacked us in the middle of negotiations. But I am still trying diplomacy because I think we shouldnt miss any chance for peace, Araghchi said. Waltz told NBC News it was common sense that the president did not have much confidence in Irans offer after the country violated the memorandum of understanding brokered in June. Negotiations between Iran and the U.S., both directly and indirectly, to end the war have been on and off since a few weeks after it began on Feb. 28. In June, both countries reached an initial truce, signing a memorandum of understanding that included a two-month timeline to hammer out terms for lasting peace, including tackling differences over Irans nuclear program, sanctions and control over the Strait of Hormuz. The ceasefire quickly unraveled, and the 60-day deadline passed last month with no breakthroughs. Iranian officials pursued a flurry of diplomatic meetings in New York last week during the U.N. General Assembly. Trump administration officials held talks with the Iranian delegation through mediators, U.S. envoy Steve Witkoff said in an X post. Trump had told the U.N. General Assembly on Tuesday that Iran could make a deal to end the war or face annihilation. The Iranian delegation walked out of the chamber. The following day, Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian told the U.N. that Iran was ready for dialogue and diplomacy and negotiations without accepting the language of force.

FBI ousts 2 agents who investigated alleged harassing calls to Stephen Miller's wife

Stephen Miller, White House deputy chief of staff, and his wife, Katie Miller, attend the White House Easter Egg Roll on Monday, April 21, 2025. - Tom Williams/CQ-Roll Call/Sipa USA Two veteran FBI agents overseeing counterterrorism operations in the nations capital have been removed from their jobs and reassigned over the handling of an investigation involving Katie Miller, the conservative podcaster and wife of senior White House adviser Stephen Miller, according to two people familiar with the move. Michael Burgwald, the special agent in charge of counterterrorism matters at the FBIs Washington Field Office, and his deputy, Courtland Rae, were ousted from their positions by bureau leadership after investigators determined that allegedly harassing phone calls Katie Miller received from unknown individuals did not warrant further investigation, the sources said. The field office team that reviewed the reported harassing calls determined they did not meet the threshold required for an FBI investigation, and no nexus to terrorism was identified, the sources said. This decision did not sit well with bureau leadership, and the two senior field office agents were removed from their positions, according to the sources. Since taking office last year, FBI director Kash Patel a fierce loyalist of President Donald Trump has fired, demoted, or forced into retirement countless career employees who handled past investigations into Trump and his allies. Many of those forced out have filed lawsuits seeking reinstatement. In a statement on an official FBI Rapid Response social media account established to tout the agency and respond to critics, Darren Cox, the senior executive who oversees the bureaus DC office, confirmed the ousting of Burgwald and Rae, but denied the order came from Patel. This was a personnel decision made at the Washington field office level alone based on our constant evaluation of mission needs, Cox said. Any suggestion otherwise is false. CNN is attempting to locate contact information for Burgwald and Rae. The decision to remove them from their positions has riled many rank and file FBI employees who have been critical of personnel moves they view as highly politicized, sources said. Burgwald graduated from the United States Military Academy West Point and was the recipient of FBI investigative awards, while Rae similarly rose through the ranks of the organization after a lengthy career in national security, sources said. The reassignment of the two senior officials was first reported by Bloomberg Law. In a statement to Bloomberg Law, White House spokesperson Lauren Bis said Stephen and Katie Miller had no interaction with Burgwald or Rae, adding, Senior leadership at the FBI determined they were stifling investigations into very serious threats and made a unilateral decision to remove them. When contacted by CNN, the White House issued the same statement, attributing it to a senior White House official. Still, there is a history of the Millers expressing their displeasure at the FBIs handling of personal incidents they viewed as threatening in nature. According to people familiar with an incident last year, the couple grew irate with FBI officials over pushback by career agents to use bureau resources to investigate paper flyers critical of Stephen Miller that were posted in the familys neighborhood. Like several senior Trump officials, the couple later moved into military housing. CNNs Aleena Fayaz contributed to this report.
