09.05.2025 ⇢ America's Pope Meets Trump's Iron Fist
⌨
Cardinal Robert Prevost's historic election as Pope Leo XIV - the first American pontiff - dominated early coverage as he celebrated his inaugural Mass in the Sistine Chapel, pledging to uplift "ordinary people."
Meanwhile, Trump appointed Fox News' Jeanine Pirro as interim DC prosecutor and announced the Justice Department was investigating NY AG Letitia James. His administration also continued institutional disruption, firing the Librarian of Congress and three Democrats from the Consumer Product Safety Commission.
By evening, tensions escalated dramatically on two fronts: White House adviser Stephen Miller revealed they were "actively looking at" suspending habeas corpus for migrants, and Newark Mayor Ras Baraka was arrested during a Democratic delegation's visit to an ICE facility.
Late evening headlines reported Pakistan's claim that India fired missiles at three Pakistani air bases, further escalating the week-long conflict between the nuclear powers that began with India's retaliatory strikes on May 6th.
