[Catholic Caucus] A Catechism to Reclaim CatechismsAn ever-expanding mushroom cloud of doctrinal madness presently afflicts the Church, but a new catechism promises a sure sign of hope for the future.In apparent answer to the recent papal prolepsis calling for “a courageous cultural revolution” in Catholic theology, the Vatican’s Dicastery for the Doctrine of the Faith has formally adopted the categories of “transgender persons” and “homosexual persons.” While vats of ink will be spilled on both counts, faithful Catholics continue to pray for an end to the ever-expanding mushroom cloud of doctrinal madness presently afflicting the Church. In the meantime, it...

VIDEOAt the next (and final) GOP presidential debate, Vivek Ramaswamy can perform his greatest deed by constantly demanding the resignation of incompetent narcissist GOP chairwoman Ronna ROMNEY McDaniel. He did demand her resignation at the beginning of the last debate but Vivek can improve on that service by continually pointing out her incompetence and demanding her resignation at the next debate. About 90% of the Republican base want her to resign but she keeps hanging on like a spoiled child refusing to give up her favorite toy.

Former President Trump's allies are pre-screening the ideologies of thousands of potential foot soldiers, as part of an unprecedented operation to centralize and expand his power at every level of the U.S. government if he wins in 2024, officials involved in the effort tell Axios. Why it matters: Hundreds of people are spending tens of millions of dollars to install a pre-vetted, pro-Trump army of up to 54,000 loyalists across government to rip off the restraints imposed on the previous 46 presidents.

The Biden administration faced backlash last month for giving Iran access to their frozen funds, which many agree was directly linked to the Hamas attacks on Israel.

They include doctors, journalists, professors and poets. More than 11,100 Palestinians have been killed in Gaza since Oct. 7, according to Gaza’s Health Ministry. While there is no breakdown between fighters and civilians, most of the dead are women and children. In just a little over a month of war, that amounts to over 0.5 percent of Gaza’s more than 2 million people.

... DAVID SACKS: Yeah, that's exactly the point that we've reached. What you've really seen over the past week or so is that the narrative dam around the reality of Ukraine has completely broken and the truth is now pouring out. It started with that Time Magazine article where Zelensky's own aides and advisors said that he was "delusional," for this, what they said, "messianic belief in their ultimate victory." One of his advisors said they are out of options, they are not winning, but "try telling him that." That wasn't the end of it, you had this NBC News...
