This is obviously the play, and when you understand that 65% of revenue from Catholic Charities comes from the government, you will understand why the US bishops want the Democrats back in power.

Once again, this 60 minutes interview seems to me to be part of this concerted effort to drive conservative American catholics away from their evangelical brothers and sisters for the purpose of getting them to stay home for the midterms. Don't fall for it.

“Alumni will recall many of Lou Holtz’s famous quips, including his often-repeated: ‘I don’t think God cares who wins [the game], but his Mother does.’ May the Blessed Mother—Our Lady on the Dome—intercede with her Son and reward Lou Holtz for his Christian convictions and fidelity in the most important contest of all.”

“On behalf of the entire Notre Dame community, I want to express how incredibly proud we are of our football student-athletes for their accomplishments both on and off the field this season. We are deeply grateful for the exceptional leadership of Vice President and Director of Athletics Pete Bevacqua, Head Coach Marcus Freeman, and the entire coaching staff. Our pride stems not only from this team’s success on the field but from the values they embody: faith, perseverance, selflessness, and a steadfast commitment to the University." —University President Rev. Robert A. Dowd, C.S.C.

This is the @NotreDame difference — I can’t overstate how much Fr. Pete meant to me during my time there. He was pivotal in shaping my spiritual journey. Great person, and there are many more like him in the campus ministry 🙏🏾 #GoIrish ☘️

There’s a wholesome moment at the end of every third quarter when the Notre Dame Stadium video board shows the invitation to Mass. And when Rev. Pete McCormick appears, the student section goes nuts. I wanted to understand why. nytimes.com/athletic/67788…

"Dialogue does not require giving awards to Catholic political leaders who disregard the most fundamental of human rights, the right to life of the unborn." – Archbishop Naumann

Archbishop Naumann Accuses Cardinal Cupich of ‘Pastoral Neglect’ for Honoring Pro-Abortion Senator The latest American prelate to publicly chastise Chicago Cardinal Blase Cupich for honoring U.S. Sen. Dick Durbin.⤵️ ncregister.com/news/archbisho…

Bishop James V. Johnston, Jr. of Kansas City-St. Joseph is the 8th sitting bishop to join a chorus of fraternal correction for Cardinal Cupich.

Most Americans were unfamiliar with Charlie Kirk and his work, but very familiar with what he represented -- the American Dream. Young, beautiful wife, kids, righteous male authority, faith, optimism. He was real life Ward Cleaver, Jim Anderson, Mike Brady, Cliff Huxtable. Charlie was the antithesis of the antihero father of the last 40 years. America yearns for what Charlie had. That's why his death has triggered so much emotion. Charlie was Making America Feel Fathers Again, feel morality again, feel sacrifice again. We probably haven't felt that way since the 1960s, when JFK, MLK, and RFK (perhaps fraudulently) made us believe men of high character were working on America's problems. Charlie was not a grifter or an opportunist. In the era of influencers and ego, Charlie humbly worked to remove the scales from our eyes on very difficult issues. There are terrible consequences for sacrificing merit in the name of DEI. You can't fix racial discrimination with racial discrimination. You can't replace families with EBT cards and Section 8 housing. Shared values are more important than shared skin color. Charlie organized, hosted, and participated in the uncomfortable conversations most people avoid and/or shut down with name-calling and gatekeeping. Charlie was supposed to be the fruit derived from the necessary chaos of MAGA. And maybe he will be just that if we learn the right lessons from this tragedy. Erika Kirk represents the power of women in the right role. No way Charlie is as courageous and effective without that kind of Holy Spirit-filled woman having his back. I can't quit thinking about Charlie Kirk. What a legacy... We knew a boy named Charlie, as tall as a tree. A boy Rush Limbaugh inspired to love liberty. There was something different about Charlie, smart as a whip. When his friends went to college, Charlie skipped. Couldn't see it then, but God had a plan. He raised a disciple to travel the fallen land. I'm sorry, sweet Charlie, this world is so sick. You offered your enemies Christ's carrot, they swung sticks. When they couldn't defeat you, they retaliated with a bullet, Satan's last trick. I'm sorry, Charlie, my tears are not true. I weep for the courage to live and die like you.

I’d like to respond to a disturbing contention from Senator Tim Kaine, during a recent confirmation hearing.

“Billy, this is the 2025 Kansas City Royals. They have one of the best pitching staffs in baseball. Their shortstop is the best overall player in the majors. Their defect is they score three runs a week.”

This is a pretty beautiful statement by Mel. Anyone who sees their own sin should want God to show mercy to even the most wretched of us.

Pope Francis should “retract” the confusion he caused & some of the “errors” in the Church, Bishop Schneider told @JoeDMcClane If not then his successor should retract “very ambiguous, erroneous documents & acts of PF's pontificate” Report on @LifeSite shorturl.at/FwwcI

This is not Buffalo, NY, this is Pensacola, FL with near-whiteout conditions and heavy snow. This is perhaps the closest Pensacola has gotten and will ever get to a Blizzard in this generation... Absolutely incredible.

NEW VIDEO: I’m in Pensacola, Florida, near the border. Already at 2” and it’s still snowing heavy. This is a truly historic event. #Snow #Florida @spann @stormhour

Houston’s head coach and star player both say they talked all week about how they’d have to overcome the refs Maybe they should’ve spent that time figuring out how to overcome the Chiefs

In college football, the team that scores more in the last four minutes of the second quarter and first four minutes of third wins 70% of the time. Nobody plays better in the ‘middle eight’ than Notre Dame. wsj.com/sports/footbal…

"I think Marcus Freeman is likable, which makes Notre Dame likable. Brian Kelly was kind of this gruff guy, who changed his attitude half way through when people were tired of him turning purple on the sideline and yelling." -@Golic on whether Notre Dame has become likable

HO HO HO(w) 'bout those CHIEEEEEEEFS!
