What's up, sunshine? Happy Friday.
what to think. We're breaking down some
of the biggest stories from around the
world as we get ready to rock into the
weekend. Packed show with lots to get
to. So, let's get to it. A stunning
moment for one of the biggest religions
in the
world. Those gathered outside St.
Peter's Basilica in Vatican City erupted
when they saw the white smoke billowing
out of the chimney at top the cyine
chapel. A sign that a new pope of the
Catholic Church had been elected.
69year-old Robert Pvost born in Chicago,
graduate of Villanova University, just
became the first ever American pope and
267th leader of the world's 1.4 4
billion Catholics. Very surprising. I
don't think anyone was really expecting
an American pope, especially given the
candidates that we heard about in the
news. But it's very exciting. We made
here as fast as we could so we could
make it to hear who the new pope was.
And Jackie had it up first. She told
everybody here that it was the American.
So exciting. We're so happy to be here.
And it only it probably only happens
like once every 20 or so years. cuz I I
was so young when Pope Francis was
elected. So, it's probably a once in
a-lifetime opportunity that we'll be
able to be here. He spent much of his
career as a missionary in South America
and was a bishop in Peru. The name he
chose, Pope Leo I 14th. There were
several rounds of votes, but in just two
days time, they had the 89 votes
required to name the new pontiff.
Cardinals from around the world gathered
there in Vatican City, the citystate
within Rome, Italy, praying,
deliberating among only themselves,
carefully considering who they'd choose
to lead the Catholic Church and succeed
Pope Francis, who passed away 2 and 1/2
weeks
ago. History made. The first ever
American elected as the 267th
pope. A plume of white smoke rising
above the cysteine chapel. A signal that
133 voting cardinals have elected the
new
pontiff. The bells of St. Peter's
Basilica welcoming the news. News that
thousands in St. Peter's Square, Vatican
City, and around the world have been
anticipating during the two days of the
conclave. There's so much hope. It's
exciting. It's exciting to see to be
here to know that now we have a pope. We
are so so happy to be here at Rome
today. Pope Leo I 14th making his debut
address to the world's roughly 1.4
billion Catholics.
Peace be with you
all. All right, that conclave to choose
the new Pope Leo I 14th was relatively
quick
because did you know the longest papal
election in history took almost 3 years
to complete? Back in the 13th century,
cardinals were locked indoors for 2
years, 9 months before finally choosing
Pope Gregory I 10th. It prompted some of
the current rules enforced for a
conclave today. It got to the point
where they were only served bread and
water in hopes it might encourage them
to uh hurry up and choose. The more you
know, if you had 200 billion bucks, what
would you do with it? How about give
almost all of it away? One of the
wealthiest people in the world, Bill
Gates, who accumulated wealth as
co-founder of Microsoft back in the 70s,
just announced plans to give away
virtually all of his personal wealth and
all the funds in the Gates Foundation,
his philanthropic organization, within
the next 20 years, much sooner than
originally planned. We're talking about
$200 billion dollars, y'all. The
69year-old Gates says there are too many
urgent problems for him to hold on to
resources. The announcement comes at a
time when the US federal government,
Germany, and others are scaling back
funding for philanthropy and social
services. His foundation helps causes
such as reducing poverty, increasing
graduation rates, reducing preventable
newborn and children deaths, ending
diseases like malaria and measles, and
more. Gates wrote in a statement,
"People will say a lot of things about
me when I die, but I am determined that
he died rich will not be one of them."
Now to Europe, where after the first
full day of Russia's 3-day ceasefire,
Ukrainian officials are calling it quote
a farce. Russia said it would pause
fighting in Ukraine to observe its World
War II victory day anniversary. But
Keefe accused Moscow of breaching its
own dant after bomb struck several
Ukrainian cities. Our Nick Payton Walsh
spent the first hours of the ceasefire
with Ukrainian forces monitoring Russian
military activity and he's giving us an
inside look of what it's like there on
the ground.
So, midnight just kicked in and now
they're looking to see if there's any
difference at all in the situation and
it's been pretty bad weather for quite a
bit of the day, but some activity and
now they have to see if uh President
Vladimir Putin is keeping his word at
all. So it's just saying 3 minutes ago
and that'll be about just 3 minutes into
the ceasefire. Artillery shooting in the
direction of PRs, one of the hottest
parts of the front line now where the
Russians have been making quite a bit of
progress over the past few
days. So about four or five visible just
on his monitoring system here since the
ceasefire began. That's artillery still
being used by the Russians. And the
wider fear is that like the Easter
ceasefire which the Kremlin also called
unilaterally, they might see the
Russians use this particular moment to
regroup, to reposition their troops and
launch an offensive from better
positions when the ceasefire is
finished. The Ukrainians though on their
side at this point do not have orders to
reciprocate and so they're continuing
their work targeting Russian positions.
now, but another test whether Moscow can
be trusted at its word and really too
whether the peace that the White House
so urgently says it wants can come to
this largest war in Europe since the
40s.
Pop quiz hot shot. Who was the first
Japanese player to win a singles tennis
title in a grand slam event? K
Nishikori, Kamiko Date, Naomi Osaka, or
Augyama?
If you said Naomi Osaka, put your hands
up. Born in Osaka, Japan, she moved to
the US with her family at four years
old. And at 20, she won her first Grand
Slam title, beating Serena Williams at
the US Open to become the first Asian
woman to be ranked number one in the
world. Tennis star Naomi Osaka is making
headlines after winning a title in
France. It's her first title of any kind
since the Australian Open in 2021 and
first since becoming a mom. Now 27,
Naomi has been through a lot since
bursting onto the tennis scene as a
teen, winning four Grand Slam titles and
reaching world number one status at one
point. She lost in the early rounds at
several major events, citing struggles
with her mental health at times, but her
perseverance is paying off after winning
on a clay court this week. She posted,
"Kind of ironic to win my first trophy
back on the surface that I thought was
my worst. That's one of my favorite
things about life, though. There's
always room to grow and evolve.
Today's story getting a 10 out of 10 is
a new baby penguin sure to put a pep in
your step. At the pleasant and
picturesque Aquarium of Niagara in New
York, a playful baby humble penguin is
propelling itself into the public as a
paradigm of pure relation. And while we
won't know the gender until a blood test
this summer, the aquarium is putting out
a passionate plea for people to
participate in naming the unnamed
penguin. They're posing three names to
the public inspired by the penguin's
native Peru. Cantuta, national flower of
Peru. Machu for its ancient city, Machu
Picchu, and Centa, Spanish word for 60,
celebrating the aquarium's 60th
anniversary. It's a plea with a purpose,
though, hoping to produce something
profoundly priceless. Each $1 vote on
the aquarium's website raises money for
their animal care. All right,
superstars. Favorite part of the day. We
are giving a shout out to the incredible
and commendable Mrs. Lee and all our
friends at Palestine Wheatley High
School in Palestine, Arkansas. Before
your retirement, Mrs. Lee, your students
want you to know you have had a huge
impact on their lives. Play that Friday
music nod. Have an awesome weekend,
everyone. Remember, it is Mother's Day
Sunday. So whether it's your mom,
auntie, grandma, or any sort of mother
figure in your life, be sure to
celebrate them. Pick a flower, write a
note, make some pancakes for them. Show
them you appreciate their guidance,
support, and the way they love you
through it all. Making this world a bit
of a better place. Rise up. You are more
powerful than you know. I'm Koi Wire.
This is CNN 10. It's been a blessing to
