JARRATT, Va. (WAVY) — The Virginia Boar’s Head plant linked to a fatal listeria outbreak is closing indefinitely, per the union for workers at the plant.

The United Food and Commercial Workers Local 400 Union, which represents 35,000 food service and other workers in the eastern U.S., shared a statement on Friday after learning the news about the plant in Jarratt, Virginia.

Pope Francis on Friday described the choice US voters must make in the presidential election as one between the “lesser of two evils,” deeming former President Donald Trump’s anti-migrant policies and Vice President Kamala Harris’ support of abortion rights as both being “against life.”

“One must choose the lesser of two evils. Who is the lesser of two evils? That lady or that gentleman? I don’t know,” Francis said during a press conference on the papal plane, referring to Harris and Trump. “Everyone with a conscience should think on this and do it.”

Francis has been more vocal about politics than his predecessors and has moved to make the Catholic Church more open. While he has consistently and strongly defended the Catholic Church’s teaching that abortion is the deliberate destruction of a human life, Francis has also insisted it cannot be isolated from other issues concerning human life, including immigration.

“To send migrants away, to leave them wherever you want, to leave them … it’s something terrible, there is evil there. To send away a child from the womb of the mother is an assassination, because there is life. We must speak about these things clearly,” he said.

Francis should probably shut the fuck up and focus on the pedophiles in the church rather than the American election.

For 4 years

Also voting for Kamala is pretty much only a small drop in the ocean. Trump's Voters won't go away magically. Project 2024/2025 will just be rebranded Project 2028 etc... People really need to stop thinking that everything's fine again the second the election is in the books.

Yeah but it stops him from being in a position of power. As long as we live in a country with free speech he’s allowed to keep spouting his bullshit but he can’t do anything lol
