“Liturgical Survival in Gray Areas”: Michael Charlier on Room for Maneuvering without Schism A thoroughly friendly discussion is currently taking place between the blogs Caminante Wanderer (Argentina) and MessaInLatino (Italy) about Pope Francis’s part in the activities against the traditional liturgy. Caminante Wanderer is of the opinion that Francis is, in principle, uninterested in liturgy, that he devotes himself exclusively to the things his neo-Jesuitical thinking considers important and otherwise follows the voices that fit best into his current power calculations. We do not intend to disagree with this, especially since the Wanderer can certainly cite serious arguments in...

Insulting a man for being bald in the workplace amounts to sex harassment in the UK, a panel of balding judges have ruled, according to a report Thursday. Hair loss is far more common among men than women, so using the term is “inherently related to sex” — and equivalent to commenting on the size of a woman’s breasts, the employment tribunal said, according to the UK Telegraph. The finding — made by three judges who lament their own lack of locks in the judgment — came in the case of an electrician, Tony Finn, who sued a small Yorkshire-based...

The Washington Post — a newspaper named Washington — published an editorial calling for a name change at George Washington University.You can’t make this sh*t up.The op-ed, written by a senior currently attending George Washington University, is 800 or so words of the usual-usual, shockingly ignorant moral preening we’ve come to expect from the Woke McCarthyites. So let me sum it up: This university is racist, and George Washington was racist, and while I didn’t find this offensive enough to pass up attending school here, harrumph, harrumph, harrumph, half-truth, half-truth, half-truth, I’m so virtuous, I’m so virtuous, I’m so virtuous…This...

Esper said, “I think it’s important at the end of the day that the January 6th Committee get to the bottom of what happened and understand it, make sure there is accountability and figure out how we prevent this from happening again. It was a tragic day in our nation’s history.”

Pauls Valley, Okla. (KOKH) — Garvin County deputies say a woman and her friend were arrested for allegedly framing her husband with child porn. Investigators say the woman was mad at her estranged husband, took 900 screenshots of naked children with his phone, and went to the police. Documents show last month, Lacey Husks asked her friend Angel Moore to help with a revenge plot against her soon-to-be ex-husband, Brandon Husks.

When Donald Trump won the presidency in 2016, it sent shockwaves through Washington. For the first time in modern U.S. history, an individual had won the highest office purely on grassroots support and by challenging the Washington Democrat-led establishment. Trump was a threat to the status quo in Washington. The establishment knew they not only had to personally denigrate him, but also delegitimize his victory to prolong their relevance. They first concocted the Trump-Russian Collusion hoax. The mainstream media amplified the lie with their breathless coverage. The proponents of this hoax couldn't tell how Russia meddled with the ballots or...

Statement by Donald J. Trump, 45th President of the United States of America 05/11/22 Today, the worst "election integrity" Governor in the country, Brian Kemp, loaded the great state of Georgia up with RINOs.

That tells you all you need to know about what you are getting in Georgia—just a continuation of bad elections and a real RINO if you vote for Brian Kemp.

Rep. Jaime Herrera Beutler (R-Wash.) asked Tabek to explain why US officials would comply with such a request. “There’s no question that the communication that we...

The current war in Ukraine is not a battle between the good and bad guys; it has everything to do with the setting up of a one-world government. Both sides favor a New World Order, but are they fighting for same vision of it? Both Putin and Zelenskyy graduated from Klaus Schwab’s school for Young Global leaders. Schwab, founder and head of the World Economic Forum (WEF), promotes what he calls the Great Reset, which is a Marxist reordering of the world’s economy under one government. So how do we explain what’s happening in Ukraine? I believe the answer lies...
