Do you really need that latte? I'm supporting the workers in #Louisville.

Catholic Social Teaching supports labor unions as essential for defending workers' dignity, rights, fair wages. This stance originated w/Pope Leo XIII's Rerum Novarum. @usccbofficial.bsky.social @sbworkersunited.org

Peter has died since this recording. He was a Catholic deacon, prison chaplain and Board member of a Kentucky abolition organization. A great example for others. @deathpenaltyaction.bsky.social @deathpenaltyinfo.org @usccbofficial.bsky.social #deathpenalty @capitalpunishment.bsky.social

The danger of convicting an innocent person troubles this trial lawyer. And he's had a first hand look at that danger. @deathpenaltyaction.bsky.social @deathpenaltyinfo.org @usccbofficial.bsky.social @ncronline.bsky.social

AUTUMN LEAVES

The falling leaves drift by the window
The autumn leaves of red and gold
I see your lips, the summer kisses
The sun-burned hands I used to hold

One of the greatest songs ever written because it captures feelings everyone has experienced.

The @deathpenaltyinfo.org names 201 persons exonerated who had been death sentenced. Executing innocent persons is a primary reason for Bert Mutersbaugh's opposing the death penalty. Gallup's October 2025 polling finds support for the death penalty waning, at its lowest since 1994.

600,000 Hoosiers will wake up here in Indiana today, to do meal math. Seeing how many meals they can make before they have nothing.

That's 10% of the population here in Indiana.

Please give to your local food banks if you didn't wake up having to do meal math.

There is horrific cruelty behind decisions that harm blind and disabled persons, low-income persons, children, elderly living on next to nothing.

And yet, ICE thugs keep drawing a paycheck to persecute immigrants and citizens.

This is extrajudicial murder. It is illegal and unethical. And it is a pathetic use of American military force, demonstrating not strength but weakness.

US military strikes boat in Pacific in apparent expansion of campaign against alleged drug trafficking | CNN Politics The US military conducted a lethal strike against a boat in the eastern Pacific on Tuesday, killing both people on board, according to Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth.

Another illegal military strike on a boat β€” this time in the Pacific β€” broadening the Administration’s deadly campaign to another ocean.

Once again, there is no detail on who was killed or why.

The urgency increases: Congress must stop America from being dragged into another war.

This is what democracy looks like on #NOKINGS day in #Louisville on Frankfort Ave. People lined both sides of the street for blocks on end. Carrying signs of opposition to the policies pf the White House, Congress and the Supreme Court. Responding to hundreds of cars honking loudly in support.

#NoKings Thousands turned out in the Archdiocese of Louisville to demonstrate opposition to the policies of the administration. Crowd: easily 2 - 3 thousand participants. These six & at least 1 other Catholic priest witnessed against the evil being committed against the people by Trump and friends.

Dr. Rademacher began to study about the death penalty after hearing Sr. Helen Prejean. Her Catholic faith also influenced here strongly in concluding the use of the death penalty is wrong.
