On the Fourth of July, Pope Leo XIV chose to honor migrants lost at sea on Lampedusa, Europe’s frontline for refugees fleeing hardship—while the U.S. celebrated its independence. The tiny island, closer to Africa than Italy, bears witness to tens of thousands of lives lost in the Mediterranean. The Pope’s poignant visit, echoing Pope Francis’s past pilgrimage, underscores the Church’s call for compassion and human dignity amid rising EU migration rules that critics fear could rush asylum decisions and endanger genuine refugees. As migrant deaths climb despite fewer arrivals, his message is a stark, solemn plea for humanity.

Slovakia heads to the polls this Saturday for a high-stakes referendum that could end lifelong pensions for ex-leaders like Prime Minister Robert Fico and restore key anti-corruption institutions — but turnout may fall short of the 50% needed to make it binding. Triggered by a pro-Western opposition party’s petition, the vote pits historic political loyalty against reform, with Fico himself skipping the ballot. Only one referendum in Slovakia’s history has succeeded — and this one could reshape the nation’s future.
