Pope Canonizes Saint Cabrini as Model for Migrant Care

IF YOU ONLY DO ONE THING
Ignore this entirely and focus on the substantive governance events this week: the vote-by-mail executive order and the Education Department civil rights restructuring.
Why This Score
This is a Vatican religious ceremony with zero U.S. governance impact—no constitutional drivers engaged. While the migration theme and timing alongside deportation stories creates mild distraction potential (B=16), it's fundamentally a foreign religious event with no institutional mechanism. Saint Cabrini was canonized in 1946; this appears to be a papal homily or commemoration, not a new canonization.
