Amen.

Interesting paper! When you ask people about the most important issue "facing the country," they often say immigration. But when you ask them about issues facing them personally, it doesn't crack the top 10.

This indicates that voters are reacting to media narratives, not their own experience.

Weimar America Slouches Toward Birth And: Karine Jean-Pierre As An Example Of Putting Loyalty Above Competence

Rod Dreher working hard to be on the good side in America's ongoing Weimar re-enactment. What he fails to see imho, is that America is already in full labor to give birth to a very very ugly baby. And he has been an enabler rather than a resistant. roddreher.substack.com/p/weimar-ame...

As there is so much persecution of Christians, it is good to be able to draw the sword quickly. Just like Saint Peter. This time, the Lord will not interfere.

Trumpwerdung als Möglichkeit zu Anfang des 20. Jahrhunderts.

Habe ihn kürzlich meinen 5jährigen Sohn vorgestellt, als Saint Denis mit den 13 anderen Nothelfern in einer Dorfkapelle auftauchte. Nicht gerade einfach.

You don’t have to apologize for saying the truth.

“Don’t immanentize the eschaton.”

Ich bin da d‘accord, solange man sich bewusst ist, dass es keine „Kirche des Heiligen Rests“, nur halt diesmal von der anderen Seite, geben darf. Frei nach James Joyce und mit Hans Joas: Katholisch heißt doch auch „Here comes everybody.“

Ich würde ja gerne etwas über die Katholiken hören, die sich wegen ICE sonntags nicht mehr in die Kirche trauen oder ihre Kinder nicht zur Taufe bringen oder zur Erstkommunion gehen lassen können. Scheint für deutsche Rechtskatholiken auch alles akzeptabel zu sein.

Her staying with her phone would not have changed anything. But now she has a good reason to call her beloved Donald.

We cannot ever learn to accept this as normal.

Jedenfalls, sage ich mal vorsichtig, geht es nicht sehr andächtig zu. Und im Zentrum steht nicht, scheint‘s, der Herr Jesus, sondern jemand anderes.

March 24, 2025 Mr. Thomas E. Austin Architect of the Capitol SB-15 U.S. Capitol U.S. Capitol Building Washington, DC 20515 Dear Mr. Austin: On his first day in office, despite warnings from senior Republicans, President Trump issued a blanket pardon to the more than 1,500 people charged in the deadly January 6, 2021, insurrection at the U.S. Capitol.1 While these sentences can be erased with the stroke of a pen, the damage done that day is not so easily repaired. The Capitol complex withstood nearly millions of dollars in property damage from the insurrectionists who entered the Capitol by force and in their wake “left windows broken, doors splintered, and paintings stained with pepper spray and tear gas.”2 The total cost of the insurrection to the taxpayers is estimated to be $2.7 billion, and that does not account for the lives lost due to the violence that day.3 Thanks to President Trump’s reckless pardons, convicted rioters can not only walk freely, but they also are no longer required to pay their court-ordered restitutions, much of which was owed directly to your office.

Not the first time Trump trashed a public building. Total cost of January 6: $2.7 billion.

Percy died in 1990 so he could not comment on being used or abused. (Could be an interesting thought experiment, though. Think of Alasdair McIntyre‘s comment on Rod‘s Benedict Option…)

“To be sure, there is much to object to in Washington’s stance” - Did I miss something or have the good conservative US Catholics who are normally so eloquent and outspoken, just stayed silent? Do they for once rely on their local magisterium before raising their voices?

I am not sure whether Percy is a reliable “ally”. Just think about his caricature of MAGA catholics in Love in Ruins…

So you can wonder who may have owned it before.

This is how Trump does everything. Reporting from reliable sources says he’s going to do something outrageous/ridiculous. He immediately claims it’s fake news. Then a few days or weeks later he does exactly what was originally reported.

Trotz alledem

War criminal…

YouTube video by Reagan Library President Reagan's Radio Address on Free and Fair Trade on April 25, 1987

So they didn’t like the ad. Let’s just post Reagan’s 5 min speech against tariffs as it appears on YouTube.

Over and over. On all platforms (some of y’all are still on X).

*1981 Sherrilyn horrified by 2025 Sherrilyn saying “let’s post Reagan’s speech.”

The Ukrainian military has released footage, intercepted by Ukrainian forces, of a Russian FPV drone hunting Ukrainian farmers in the Donetsk region. This is essential viewing to understand the challenge that fascist Russia poses to the civilized world.

Wenigstens eine ganz kleine Freude, wenn ich in die USA schaue: Was alle, die Trump groß gemacht haben, jetzt schlucken müssen, ohne sich auch nur ein bisschen beklagen zu können!

That is a lovely compliment!

Getting ready for the Civil War II.
