https://notesfrompoland.com/2023/03/07/future-pope-john-paul-ii-knew-of-sex-abuse-by-priests-shows-new-report/#:~:text=The%20future%20Pope%20John%20Paul,by%20Polish%20broadcaster%20TVN%20claims.

he future Pope John Paul II, while still archbishop of Kraków, knew of sexual abuse by priests subordinate to him but allowed them to continue working in the church and may even have tried to prevent the authorities from learning of their crimes, a new report by Polish broadcaster TVN claims.

The revelations come amid debate in Poland over the legacy of John Paul II – a national hero not only for his spiritual leadership but also for the role he played in inspiring opposition to the communist regime – with regard to historical abuse cases in the Catholic church.

The former pope’s defenders, led by the Polish episcopate, have often argued that John Paul II was unaware of the scale of abuse being covered up in the church and that the first signs began to reach him when he was already severely ill.

TVN – which has previously broadcast claims that John Paul II’s close associate and private secretary Cardinal Stanisław Dziwisz, ignored cases of sexual abuse in the Catholic church – yesterday aired a new report focused on how the former pope himself dealt with three cases of priests responsible for abuse.

Two of those cases – of Eugeniusz Surgent and Józef Loranc – have already been reported on by other journalists in recent months. But TVN’s report featured new evidence, including accounts directly from victims and witnesses.

The third case was that of Bolesław Saduś, who was responsible for overseeing religion classes for children in the archdiocese of Kraków and was a close acquaintance of the future pope, then known by his birth name of Karol Wojtyła and who served as archbishop of Kraków from 1964 to 1978.

The Dam Has Broken and There is a Post at link to prove it. Original Post by riversedge

Title of Post: Senate Republicans question Trump's 2024 viability after sexual abuse verdict

https://www.democraticunderground.com/10143072580

________________________________________________________________________________

Yes, in my opinion it's all over for Donald Trump. In the beginning there is always.."TALK".
Then ...ACTION.. Maybe i am totally wrong, (I have been wrong before) but the verdict against Trump,
will be the end of his campaign. A jury has proven Donald Trump guilty of something. In Donald Trump's
history, a VERY MAJOR THING. (SEXUAL ASSAULT, ETC.)

WHY THE END?.....A GUILTY VERDICT BY A JURY IS A LOT OF PROOF. THE "VERDICT" IS ENOUGH TO
END THE POLITICAL CAREER OF ANYBODY.
Such a verdict has done so in the past, and it will do so again.
Look it up in U.S. History and find the proof. This one is just to inform you that the ...SHOW IS OVER.......
...(Iin one person's opinion.)

...Senate Republicans are some of the current leaders of the Republican Party. These
leaders know the show and are part of the show. In my opinion this was not done for any other purpose than
to give Republicans a chance to win in 2024 without Trump on the ballot. Also, this is to get rid of Trump very early in
"The 2024 Campaign." As has been said before: "Now is Much Better Than Later."

About Trump's Chances of Getting Elected President Again...ZERO..,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

.............HERE IS WHY.....................................................

...I think that only 30 percent will in the end support Donald Trump. The news all over the country is
against Trump, that he is a fool, a crook and someone who wants to be king. ...Getting through the
primaries will be rough for Trump.
...But even if he gets through the primaries in one piece, then there is the ..... General Election 2024.

...Yes, families will argue about Trump if he is nominated. And in the end the ..NON TRUMP PEOPLE WILL WIN.

...HERE IS WHY? 3 REASON: 1. COURT CASES AGAINST TRUMP, 2. MEDIA AGAINST TRUMP. 3. MEMBERS IN
FAMILIES AGAINST TRUMP. ...................and number 3 is the most powerful.........

Even one family member arguing about Trump within family gatherings will make his election most difficult.

When one family member has more information then fools that support Trump, those fools will realize they
are ...FOOLS.....A smart person arguing against someone not smart is easy to think about. And the smart
one will win in the end, because...Trump is a fool a crook, and someone who wants to be king.
And furthermore, the Anti-Trump person will over and over tell The Truth about who Trump is......................
and what Trump did. ...By 2024.. .....THE TRUTH WILL BE VERY CLEAR TO
And he just lost an important court case that proves he is a liar. ..Wait...Did Donald Trump start a ................
.....................................RIOT IN WASHINGTON D.C.?
......................................WELL THAT IS ANOTHER REASON TO THINK ABOUT.......................................

.........................................and ....Thank You

Story about Homeless people in a major city in the U.S.A.-- Phoenix

https://www.cnn.com/2023/05/08/us/phoenix-homeless-encampment-the-zone/index.html


Phoenix
CNN

The young widow watched as the helpers wended through the Zone at sunrise, offering what they could: water, a bus ticket or a shelter bed – if one was open.

Standing beside her tent, Rayann Denny sized up the sprawling camp of 900 or so people improvised along sidewalks in downtown Phoenix:

“It’s a whole another world.”

The soft-spoken 37-year-old ended up homeless last year after her husband died and she couldn’t pay the bills alone. This camp, she said, can be “a lot of drama,” with flares of violence. But Denny won’t stay in a shelter, with its rules and a curfew, as she relies on drugs to get through her days.

“I just try to keep myself high,” she said, “so I don’t have to deal with the pain.”

Her home base here, though – however scant – soon will vanish.

_______________________________________________________________________________________________

comment by Stuart: How the hell do we treat homeless in the U.S.A? Very sad, but not necessary. In certain parts of
the U.S. homeless people are treated far better. (Yes there are ..."State Programs" to treat very poor people. I don't know
about Phoenix, but some cities offer very cheap housing, or free places to live for the homeless. Well...I guess Texas is
not one of those places. Look at the picture at the link above. How do you explain this in a very rich country like the
U.S.A. and a very rich state like Arizonia.? I got no answer. Do you?

Ridiculous Fact few people know...One of the cheapest pain relievers is one of the most effective.

Test after test have proven this pain medicine is very effective. Furthermore, it is often the cheapest one out there.
If it were discovered today, Aspirin would be five dollars a pill.

But it wasn't discovered today or last year, or in the last 10 years. Aspirin has been out on the market for over 100 years.
Therefore, drug stores used the pain pill "Aspirin" to get people into the store. This medicine is taken for granted so often,
that most people don't know it is an effective medicine for pain. Aspirin is too cheap to be effective.

.......Well, that is wrong. Aspirin is so cheap because it has been out there for so long that patients have run out, and ..
since it was wanted, the stores had to have this medicine because people desired it, and it works.

Why say this? About a half an hour ago, I took an Aspirin tablet, and the pain is gone.



I had to share my world view of "Aspirin" with others at Democratic Underground............................
