VIDEOS AT LINK.................... The Democrat party has been freaking out about the Democratic Socialists of late – despite striking similarities between their policies – because while Democrats are happy to sweet talk voters into socialist ideas that signal maximum virtue, they don’t actually want to enact policies that would make blue-city budgets even more dire than they are. In short, the party is panicking because the voters they radicalized are electing radicals… So what better way to let progressives see what they’re voting for? Trot out a co-chair of the DSA with maybe two brain cells to rub together, ask...

"If I give all my possessions to feed the poor . . . but do not have love, it profits me nothing" (1 Cor. 13:3). Love is characterized by self-sacrifice, but not all self-sacrifice is an act of love. If you've ever donated to your church or another charitable organization out of obligation, peer pressure, legalism, guilt, a desire for recognition, or simply a tax deduction, you know what it means to give without love. In our society it's easy to fall prey to that kind of giving because the needs are so great and fund raisers appeal to every...

Sometimes, bravery is found in unexpected places. The recording artist known as Boy George was so moved by an exhibition in London dedicated to the Jews slaughtered, tortured, sexually assaulted and abducted on Oct. 7, 2023, at the Nova Music Festival in Israel — “The Moment Music Stood Still” — he recorded the hauntingly beautiful reggae tune “We Will Dance Again.” Some of the lyrics are openly supportive of the Jewish state, a risky move for an entertainer in the current climate. “You say genocide, I say war / When you’re attacked, that’s what the army’s for. “Does it get...

Venerable Fulton Sheen to be beatified in St. Louis on 24 September https://www.vaticannews.va/en/vatican-city/news/2026-03/fulton-sheen-to-be-beatified-in-st-louis-on-24-september.html In the 20th century, VENERABLE ARCHBISHOP FULTON SHEEN BECAME A PROPHETIC VOICE FOR OUR TIMES. He spoke often about persecution, the trials the Church would face, and the coming of an antichrist spirit. But among his most striking warnings was this, that persecution alone is not the greatest threat to the Church. The far greater danger is lukewarmness and compromise. Fulton Sheen declared, "THOSE WHO WILL NOT STAND FOR ANYTHING WILL FALL FOR EVERYTHING. The refusal to take sides on great moral issues is itself a decision....

Olivia Rodrigo just sold out 86 arena shows in minutes, and she’s about to fill another one with the same trick she’s pulled before. Her brand new music festival, Daisy Chain Fields, comes wrapped in an all-women lineup and a name that sounds like it belongs on a greeting card, and it’s being sold to a fanbase that packed 1.4 million seats on her last tour alone as a celebration of women and girls. But look at where the money actually goes . . . to abortionists. Planned Parenthood is a named beneficiary of Daisy Chain Fields. So is the...

Daily Readings from the USCCBFeast of Saint Lawrence, Deacon and MartyrJesus said to his disciples: “Amen, amen, I say to you, unless a grain of wheat falls to the ground and dies, it remains just a grain of wheat; but if it dies, it produces much fruit. Whoever loves his life loses it, and whoever hates his life in this world will preserve it for eternal life. Whoever serves me must follow me, and where I am, there also will my servant be. The Father will honor whoever serves me.” John 12:24–26Saint Lawrence, whom we honor today, has been highly...

The accusation that Israel is committing genocide in Gaza is the gravest accusation that can be made against any nation – and also, as Howard Jacobson has pointed out, the most sadistic that can be made against Israel in particular, because it deliberately shifts the Jews from historical victims of genocide to being perpetrators. That is why those who use it are either ignorant or malign – or, as in the case of Charlie Downes, campaign director and co-founder of far-Right party Restore Britain, both. Downes has a long history of using anti-semitic tropes (not least in his latest suggestion...

The Dukes Of Hazzard star Ben Jones passed away at the age of 84 on Sunday, August 9 after suffering a heart attack. The late actor's death was announced by his wife, Alma Viator, in an emotional Facebook post. 'I lost the love of my life today,' she wrote on Sunday. 'Ben passed from a massive heart attack.' Viator, who had married Jones in 1992, continued, 'He was home resting in his favorite chair waiting for the Braves to come on and whoop the Yankees. 'Ben had the most amazing rich full life. He loved and was loved by so...

Arab Islamic "palestine" terrorist Ahlam Tamimi, then 20 years old, disguised herself and Izz al-Din Shuheil al-Masri, the suicide bomber, as Jewish tourists. She chose the target for al-Masri and left the area before the bomb detonated and went to report on the bombing on a Palestinian news channel where she was a part-time journalist. Ahlam Tamimi who helped choose the target, scouting the location to decide when the crowd would be largest, the death count highest, and then dropped off the bomber. She later smiled as she recalled celebrating as the death toll rose from 3 to over a...

Imagine taking a day off from work in a future without capitalism. It might not feel as badly needed as it does now. You enjoy your work; it’s interesting to you, and you’re well trained for it. You work as much as you are able and no more than needed, and you would control your own labor and see it going to good use. It’s not just a job to pay the bills. These are all familiar, everyday activities. A socialist day off could be like any good day now. But what if you were free to spend your time...

President Trump on Sunday blasted former Olympian David Hearn, labeling him "ActBlue," and shared a screenshot from court filings that reveal the mountain of evidence, including witnesses and photo evidence, that the Department of Justice had when they dropped his case for vandalizing the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool. As The Gateway Pundit previously reported, the Justice Department dropped vandalism charges against Hearn. US Attorney Jeanine Pirro, who previously accused Hearn of “violently and forcefully” ripping up the sealant, claimed that “flawed installation by the contractor” was responsible for the damage. Trump slammed Pirro during an Oval Office press conference on...

After envy, the most self-destructive emotion is the desire to be on TV, destroying the reputations of, among others, Michael Avenatti, Andrew Cuomo, Eric Swalwell and—since the release of his diary—Anthony Fauci. Except in Fauci’s case, his fame-mongering was less self-destructive than simply destructive, as demonstrated by David Zweig’s amazing book, “An Abundance of Caution: American Schools, the Virus, and a Story of Bad Decisions” (MIT Press). As Zweig demonstrates, Fauci had to know the restrictive COVID measures he pushed would do enormous damage to the country—to little kids, dying patients, cancer victims, college students, restaurants, the travel industry, budding...

In the run-up to Michigan’s hotly contested Democratic Senate primary last week, a slew of headlines declared the showdown a “fight for the party’s soul.” As cliches go, that wasn’t a bad one. Leaving aside the issue of whether a political party has a soul, the framing worked because the candidates represented starkly different positions, backgrounds and styles. The outcome would thus reflect the party’s emerging values and agenda in a key swing state. And so it did, but in a way that simultaneously makes Michigan look bad and illustrates how radicals are gaining the upper hand in the national...
