We should build a museum of Treason to prevent the re writing of history

Put them all in it: Benedict Arnold, Confederates, Aldrich Ames et al

Very interesting. Pope Leo’s former boss👇😎

Trump cares only about getting richer and being liked by the cool kids (1%). Period.

He’s turned everything else over to the Right’s Project 2025 fever dream of destroying the past 70 years of government.

Everything else is a distraction for these two things.
Everything.

Things To Know: In Memoriam: Rev. Bradford C. Schoeberle, C.S.P. (1956 – 2025) Fr. Brad, pastor of St. Paul the Apostle Church in Horseshoe Bay, TX, died on Tuesday, October 21, 2025.

We remember Paulist Fr. Brad Schoeberle in this week's edition of our "Things To Know" newsletter:

Like addicts or alcoholics, when enough of the American people experience enough pain, they will change.

Apparently, an ocean of information is not enough. All we have left is pain.

Embrace the suck!👋😎

I have already called him out on this and Bishop Barron. It’s beyond ludicrous.

Still no matter what, no one can ever do a “good job” on that. That’s all I’m saying. Your opening sentence makes my point.

My point is you could find a transparent non stonewalling empathetic bishop who bankrupts the diocese etc AND it would not be enough to ever get a “ well done” from some quarters.

No one ever “wins” . It’s degrees of losing.

I’d love to be proved wrong

This is the 19th death of a person in custody of ICE since Trump turned it into a poorly-trained personal army of terror.

As a lifetime Red Sox fan, I understand that sometimes all you have is your resentment.
That’s why I understand MAGA even if I can’t approve due to my Gospel prejudice😎

Name me a bishop who 100% satisfied survivors and allies. In fairness, they could set themselves on fire and it wouldn’t be enough for some.
That’s the other side of this

Indeed. The Lord did not command that we beat swords into ploughshares so that gaslighting grifters could farm rage.

No one should mourn the old clerical system of the Catholic Church in the United States, but that system at least prevented the insane zealotry that we see today. The problem is that today prominent representatives of that clerical system are supporting that zealotry.

Can’t we just say no one should be shot for their political views? Do we have to canonize the guy too?

I’m looking at you, Bishops Barron and Dolan😳

Ideology trumping theology.

Happening frequently.

Here you just see it at a shockingly high level.

If this guy was St Paul’s equivalent, I’m the Virgin Mary

Time to Repent

What I’m meditating on currently:

When they sow the wind,
they will reap the whirlwind;
(Hosea 8:7)

And

Then Jesus said to him, “Put your sword back into its sheath, for all who take the sword will perish by the sword. (MT 26:52)

And

Anyone who has ears to hear ought to hear.” (MK4:23)

Yeah, Boomers are just people. Around 1968 Dems were so successful they started losing Union blue collar voters to GOP. New Deal no longer working so they turned to corporate center to win.🤷‍♂️
Now, the New Deal is undermined. Nothing will change until we stop voting in self interest alone. Repent!😎

Should be Re up 🙄 Auto correct makes me look even stupider than I make myself look🤷‍♂️

The “old guys” are up😎👍🏻
