Pope Leo Blames Marxist Witch Doctor Dictatorship on Colonialism

Pope Leo has obsessively blamed all the problems in the world on capitalism and colonialism. Even when they’re very obviously the work of Marxists or Islam. The next leg of his tour, to Equatorial Guinea, was more of the same. On the final stop of his trip through Africa, Pope Leo XIV addressed officials in… Continue reading Pope Leo Blames Marxist Witch Doctor Dictatorship on Colonialism

Leo XIV Joined a Communist March Against Ronald Reagan in 1983

Every so often a single image does the work of twenty speeches. This week’s image was the old photograph of young Robert Prevost in 1983, marching in Comiso, Sicily, in protest against the Cruise missiles installed under Ronald Reagan. That protest was organized by the Italian Communist Party. The old photograph fits the man now… Continue reading Leo XIV Joined a Communist March Against Ronald Reagan in 1983

Where is Pope Urban II when you need him?

In a passionate speech at the Council of Clermont in 1095, Pope Urban II issued a call for the First Crusade to liberate Jerusalem from Muslim occupation. “Deus vult!” the cry went up from the assembled crowd. “God wills it!” And Christendom responded. That was a different era. Today the West is no longer Christendom… Continue reading Where is Pope Urban II when you need him?

Ladies, Don’t Get A Big Dog That You Can’t Control

It’s a little too frequently that I’m walking my very small, very cute shih tzu-poodle mix — she is very well behaved, by the way — and some neighbor, wielding a much larger, more energetic dog, nearly loses control of her animal as it lunges toward mine. Other than it startling both Molly and me,… Continue reading Ladies, Don’t Get A Big Dog That You Can’t Control

Pope Leo Celebrates Christian Genocide in Algeria

In 1955, Algeria had over 1 million Catholics and 140,000 Jews. Today, as Pope Leo visits Algeria, there are some 8,000 Catholics in Algeria and there are fewer than 200 Jews. 99% of the population of what was one of the old territories of Christianity are Sunni Muslims. Was Islam so popular that all the… Continue reading Pope Leo Celebrates Christian Genocide in Algeria

Trump wants Pope Leo to know that ‘Iran has killed 42,000 innocent’ protesters

President Donald Trump continued his war of words with Pope Leo, requesting that the pontiff be reminded of the thousands of innocent protesters killed by the Iranian regime after nationwide protests in the country in January. The president used the murders as a basis for reasoning that Iran should not be allowed to have a… Continue reading Trump wants Pope Leo to know that ‘Iran has killed 42,000 innocent’ protesters

The fertility crisis isn’t an economic problem. It’s a cultural one

America’s birth rate has fallen again, extending a decadeslong decline that has reshaped the country’s demographic future. The latest data confirm what has been evident for years: People are having fewer children and, if they have them at all, later. Analysts have pointed to a familiar list of explanations — the rising cost of housing,… Continue reading The fertility crisis isn’t an economic problem. It’s a cultural one

Why Is It So Damn Hard To Find Sympathetic Student Loan ‘Victims’?

Is any subgenre of journalism more debased and alienating than the student-loan sob story? If paying for college with heavily subsidized, federally backed loans was in fact the cause of the new, universal serfdom we hear so much about, you’d think that places like The New York Times would be able to scare up highly… Continue reading Why Is It So Damn Hard To Find Sympathetic Student Loan ‘Victims’?

Like It or Not, It’s Time To Do Away With No-Fault Divorce

Raise your hand if someone close to you – friend, relative, co-worker – has been personally touched by divorce. Sadly, I’ve been able to raise my hand for all three at certain points of my life, and I wouldn’t be surprised if you can as well. Perhaps you’ve even been divorced yourself. The prevalence of… Continue reading Like It or Not, It’s Time To Do Away With No-Fault Divorce

California Humor

Since I haven’t posted any California humor since 2024, it’s obviously not a regular topic of satire (like socialism humor or libertarian humor, for instance). But that doesn’t mean politicians in Sacramento aren’t trying to make the Golden State a national laughingstock. Consider California’s infamous boondoggle, which is way behind schedule and way over budget.… Continue reading California Humor

Norbertine Abbey in Santa Fe Posts Message Defending Homosexual Priest

Last August, the Lepanto Institute published a report on Fr. Steve Rosera, a priest of the Archdiocese of Santa Fe who spent 10 years in a publicly registered homosexual relationship and who has openly advocated for same-sex “marriage” for nearly as much time. Without any action on the part of the Archdiocese regarding this grave… Continue reading Norbertine Abbey in Santa Fe Posts Message Defending Homosexual Priest

The President(s) Fought the Law and the Law Won

In our textbook, Modern Principles, Tyler and I emphasize that Congress and the President are subject to a higher law, the law of supply and demand. In an excellent column, Jason Furman gives a clear example of how difficult it is to fight the law of inelastic demand: …Today a given number of autoworkers can… Continue reading The President(s) Fought the Law and the Law Won

The Islamization of Catholic Charities

Meet the ‘Mohammeds’ running the Church’s migration agenda.

The Bishops’ Misplaced Priorities

Immigration eclipsed abortion as the central political concern of America’s Catholic leadership. Last week, The Atlantic’s Francis X. Rocca penned a damning indictment of America’s Catholic bishops, although I doubt he intended it as such. “The most urgent political concern for America’s Catholic leaders is no longer abortion; it’s immigration,” Rocca wrote. Noting that immigration… Continue reading The Bishops’ Misplaced Priorities

Tucker Carlson’s sickening praise for Sharia tyranny
