Pope Francis celebrated December Christmas eve mass in a nearly empty St. Peter’s Basilica in accordance with covid 19 safety measures. NPR’s reports about 100 people were present compared to the usual 10,000.

The ceremony began 2 hours earlier than usual to allow the few who attended to return home before the evening curfew. In his homily Pope Francis turned to a theme dear to him, the plight of those he calls “on the peripheries of society”.
The son of God was born in outcast, Francis said in order to tell us that every outcast is a child of God.

众议院议长NP说周一她将再次试图通过对直接新冠疫情救助支付增加2000美元的提案。川丑在这一题案刚提出来时就置之不理。NPR记者C报道称众议院民主党议员们支持川丑的想法。众议院民主党议员们试图周四快速口头表决通过该提案，但共和党议员们阻止了这一打算。众议院多数党领袖SH和密州民主党DD说共和党应该同意这一提案。D也同时将矛头对准了川丑。“这是一个不平静的夜晚。所有的人都无法平静。对于太多的人而言，前途未仆。对于很多很多的人来说，他们寝食不安。”现在议长P说周一她将要求在册的议员们一一点名表决，参议院不想采取这种方式。

在最后期限到来之前，英国和欧盟加紧解决英国脱欧后贸易协定的一些有争论细节。这项协议将解决今年一些胡乱的决定，以及可能纠缠不清的跨境贸易。经过几个月的谈判，今天已经出现了突破，双方的分歧目前主要集中在了三个方面： 公平竞争措施，未来争端解决机制和捕鱼权利。英国定于1月1日脱离欧盟经济框架。

NPR调查新洲住房和城市发展部在新冠疫情初期做出的撤离老年人居住设施的决定已有一个月。调查发现这一决定是鲁莽的，有缺陷的。NP记者报道称这一举动导致了半数撤离人员去世。该调查发现当新泽西官员们三月份下令撤离WB圣J养老院时，他们没有考虑到这些撤离人员的身体虚弱状况。况且转移到45分钟行程外的新设施也没有多复杂。官员们也对可能的替代方案敷衍了事，只花费了俩天时间招更多养老院员工。撤离的结果很悲惨。25号急救车中的78名老人有近一半在事后不久去世，有一些几天后就辞世了。老年问题专家告诉NPR,撤离的压力无疑构成了一部分原因。

教皇F在人员稀少的圣比特教堂遵守新冠安全条例举行了庆祝圣诞前夜弥撒。NPR记者报道称约100人参加了弥撒，而以往通常会有1000人参加。为了让一小部分人在晚间宵禁前尽早回家，仪式较以往提前俩小时开始。教皇F在训诫中转向了他喜欢的主题，他称之为社会边缘人士的困境。上帝之子生于弃儿，教皇说这些就是告诉我们每一个弃儿都是上帝的孩子。教皇继续说每个人都应该反思自己对于兄弟姐妹的不公，而不是一味追求无止境的占有。圣诞节，教皇将在梵蒂冈向世界宣读这些话，这样也可以避免人群大量聚集在圣比特教堂。
