Francis to miss Palm Sunday Mass?

The following story appeared on Breitbart News this morning. Walt has made a minor edit. 

Argentinian Cardinal Leonardo Sandri will substitute Pope Francis in the celebration of Palm Sunday Mass in Saint Peter’s Square due to the pontiff’s ill health, the Vatican has announced.

Sandri, the former prefect of the Vatican Congregation for the Eastern Churches, revealed that he had been informed last Monday that he would celebrate Palm Sunday Mass, which kicks off the Holy Week celebrations that will culminate with Easter Sunday. "Yes, of course, I can confirm that I will celebrate the Mass of the Palms on Sunday," Sandri said. "I was warned already last Monday by the Master of Papal Ceremonies that the Holy Week liturgies would each be celebrated by a cardinal, and they asked me for Palm Sunday." 

The Vatican reportedly still hopes [nothing was said about praying] that Pope Francis will be well enough to preside over the Easter Mass, which will be officiated by Cardinal Giovanni Battista Re, and that the pope will be able to impart the Urbi et Orbi blessing from the central loggia of the Basilica. 


In other news... Soros-backed New York D.A. Alvin J. Bragg, who bragged (geddit?) that he would save America from a second Trump presidency, has persuaded a grand jury of 23 fair-minded people to indict President Trump on several charges, the exact nature of which will be revealed when (and if) The Donald surrenders and is arraigned in a New York court, where he is assured of a fair trial. (Geddit?)

The voluntary surrender will likely happen soon. The trial... not so soon. President Trump says this will not affect his campaign for re-election in the slightest, and I belikeve him.
