On Monday this week, President Trump honored victims of illegal alien violence by signing a proclamation designating February 22 as “Angel Family Day.” The date was chosen in remembrance of Laken Riley who was murdered by an illegal alien in 2024. Several family members of murder victims gave heart-wrenching statements at the ceremony. But America’s heartless bishops failed to even acknowledge this proclamation and the victims it represents (four days after the event, a Google search yielded exactly zero statements from U.S. bishops on the Angel Family proclamation). Since Monday, our Catholic bishops instead issued statements attacking the Trump administration for its immigration enforcement efforts and advocating for migrants who are in this nation illegally. Two years after the bruttal murder of Laken Riley, the USCCB has STILL NOT issued any statement about this terrible tragedy (a search on their website still yields zero results). At his State of the Union address on …
[Saint Jerome – IV-V Century AD; Stridon, Roman Empire/Bethlehem, Palaestina Prima; aged 75-78, Translation of the Bible into Latin – Vulgate; Doctor of the Church] “Chapter 11 Philo the Jew, an Alexandrian of the priestly class, is placed by us among the ecclesiastical writers on the ground that, writing a book concerning the first church of Mark the evangelist at Alexandria, he writes to our praise, declaring not only that they were there, but also that they were in many provinces and calling their habitations monasteries. From this it appears that the church of those that believed in Christ at first, was such as now the monks desire to imitate, that is, such that nothing is the peculiar property of any one of them, none of them rich, none poor, that patrimonies are divided among the needy, that they have leisure for prayer and psalms, for doctrine also and ascetic practice, that they were in fact as Luke declares believers were at first at Jerusalem. They say that under Caius Caligula …More
"Chapter 16 - St. Ignatius From Syria even unto Rome I fight with wild beasts, by land and by sea, by night and by day, being bound amidst ten leopards, that is to say soldiers who guard me and who only become worse when they are well treated. Their wrong doing, however is my schoolmaster, but I am not thereby justified. May I have joy of the beasts that are prepared for me; and I pray that I may find them ready; I will even coax them to devour me quickly that they may not treat me as they have some whom they have refused to touch through fear. And if they are unwilling, I will compel them to devour me. Forgive me my children, I know what is expedient for me."
Red Pill Dispenser@redpilldispensr Frank Zappa was decades ahead of his time. He said this in 1981: "Schools train people to be ignorant. They give you the equipment that you need to be a functional ignoramus." "They prepare you to be a usable victim for a military industrial complex that needs manpower." "As long as you're just smart enough to do a job, and just dumb enough to swallow what they feed you, you're going to be alright." "Schools mechanically and very specifically try and breed out any hint of creative thought in the kids that are coming up."
An eight-month-old baby girl was swept into Lake Michigan on February 19 when strong winds blew her stroller into the water near Belmont Harbor in Chicago, USA. Her caregiver screamed for help. Lio Cundiff, 30, who reportedly does not swim, saw that the woman "was in too much shock to do anything". He jumped into the icy lake, grabbed the stroller, and held it above the surface to keep the baby’s head from going under. Passers-by soon pulled Cundiff and the baby ashore. The baby was treated and found to be in good condition. The man was hospitalized for monitoring and later released.
Mon Feb 23, 2026 - 2:29 pm ESTTue Feb 24, 2026 - 6:31 am EST CHICAGO (LifeSiteNews) — A man saved an eight-month-old baby girl from drowning in Lake Michigan after he jumped into its icy waters. Lio Cundiff, 30, was taking a walk along Belmont Harbor in Chicago while wishing a happy belated birthday to his aunt on the phone when he heard a woman scream and saw a stroller with a baby inside swept into Lake Michigan by a strong gust of wind. “I wasn’t going to let that baby die,” Cundiff, who reportedly does not swim, told Fox10 from a nearby hospital, where his heart was being monitored after the rescue. “I immediately dropped my phone, threw my jacket off,” Cundiff told Block Club Chicago. “I realized the woman was in too much shock to do anything, which is more than understandable. So I thought, ‘I guess I’m going in.’” Cundiff jumped into the water and grabbed ahold of the stroller, with the baby still strapped in. “I just held the stroller up,” Cundiff said. “I was thinking …
Bill Gates Last Week:- "Jeffrey Epstein wrote that email to himself about me and Russian Women:" Bill Gates today:- "I'd like to apologise for my connections with Jeffrey Epstein, I only had two different affairs with Russian women when married, I caught an STD and had to drug Melinda to cover it up" Imagine ever believing Bill Gates ever again about anything.
[Saint Victorinus – III-IV Century AD; Roman Greece/Pettau, Roman Greece; Spiritual Writer; Martyr under Diocletian] From the Third Chapter “The fifth class, company, or association of saints, sets forth men who are careless, and who are carrying on in the world other transactions than those which they ought— Christians only in name. And therefore He exhorts them that by any means they should be turned away from negligence, and be saved; and to this effect He says:— 2. Be watchful, and strengthen the other things which were ready to die; for I have not found your works perfect before God. For it is not enough for a tree to live and to have no fruit, even as it is not enough to be called a Christian and to confess Christ, but not to have Himself in our work, that is, not to do His precepts. The sixth class is the mode of life of the best election. The habit of saints is set forth; of those, to wit, who are lowly in the world, and unskilled in the Scriptures, and who hold the faith …More
"10. And I will keep you from the hour of temptation. That they may know His glory to be of this kind, that they are not indeed permitted to be given over to temptation. 12. He that overcomes shall be made a pillar in the temple of God. For even as a pillar is an ornament of the building, so he who perseveres shall obtain a nobility in the Church."
[Saint Jerome – IV-V Century AD; Stridon, Roman Empire/Bethlehem, Palaestina Prima; Translation of the Bible into Latin – Vulgate; Doctor of the Church] “5. This, however, is a point which will find its proper place further on. We must now hasten to other matters. The passage for discussion now is, And Joseph arose from his sleep, and did as the angel of the Lord commanded him, and took unto him his wife and knew her not till she had brought forth a son, and he called his name Jesus. Here, first of all, it is quite needless for our opponent to show so elaborately that the word know has reference to coition, rather than to intellectual apprehension: as though anyone denied it, or any person in his senses could ever imagine the folly which Helvidius takes pains to refute. Then he would teach us that the adverb till implies a fixed and definite time, and when that is fulfilled, he says the event takes place which previously did not take place, as in the case before us, and knew her not …More
"8. In short, what I want to know is why Joseph refrained until the day of her delivery? Helvidius will of course reply, because he heard the angel say, Matthew 1:20 that which is conceived in her is of the Holy Ghost. And in turn we rejoin that he had certainly heard him say, Matthew 1:20 Joseph, thou son of David, fear not to take unto you Mary your wife. The reason why he was forbidden to forsake his wife was that he might not think her an adulteress. Is it true then, that he was ordered not to have intercourse with his wife? Is it not plain that the warning was given him that he might not be separated from her? And could the just man dare, he says, to think of approaching her, when he heard that the Son of God was in her womb? Excellent! We are to believe then that the same man who gave so much credit to a dream that he did not dare to touch his wife, yet afterwards, when he had learned from the shepherds that the angel of the Lord had come from heaven and said to them, Be not afraid …More
26.02.2026 VATICAN COUNCIL II INTERPRETED RATIONALLY IS MAGISTERIAL AND APOSTOLIC. THE SSPX CAN FOLLOW IT WHILE ORDAINING NEW BISHOPS Goodbye, SSPX LARRY CHAPPFEBRUARY 25, 2026 First Things with comments …The SSPX’s denunciations of Vatican II as containing “heretical” doctrines, its demonization of the papally approved Novus Ordo as “dangerous to souls,” and its vigorous criticisms of all post-conciliar papacies as riddled with “modernism” have now reached a point of theological incoherence. (Lionel: We now know that we can interpret Vatican Council II with a Rational or Irrational Premise and the conclusion is different. The Council interpreted irrationally is heretical and schismatic and should be rejected. However the SSPX and Larry Chapp can interpret the Council rationally and the conclusion will be orthodox) The rationale given by the SSPX for the “need” to ordain new bishops is that the broader Church now lacks the means to provide souls with salvific grace. (Lionel: Pope …More
Since Vatican II was declared by the Pope who called it and the Pope who closed it as pastoral and non-dogmatic, believers are both free to ignore it while remaining obliged to cling to the prior dogmatic councils. The fact that it can be interpreted as magisterial and apostolic but can also be interpreted contrary to prior dogmatic councils makes Vatican II unworthy of consideration. We have a rich library of clear and definitive Apostolic teaching. Wasting time on ambiguous pastoral texts is a distraction.
A Scottish grandmother posted the following today, begging the public for help: "This is my grandson, Lucas, being attacked by a gang of Asian youths. Lucas attends BELLAHOUSTON ACADEMY in Glasgow. Lucas is 12 and from the day he started at this school, he has been bullied for being white and little bit overweight plus he is tall for his age. Lucas has ADHD and a degree of Autism. These youths are from his school and are older. They told him they will Rape, Stab or Shoot his mother. They are terrorising the whole area and have been for around a year. We have now involved the Police, Media and written to the Board of Education. He is terrified to go back to school, Lucas is the kindest boy you could ever wish to meet. This has to stop".
Federal waste as staff burns through taxpayer money Jen Psaki points out that in first term, Cabinet members who wasted taxpayer money on personal luxuries like planes were cast out of the administration. He appears to have lost his aversion to that type of abuse because making spectacles of themselves indulging in taxpayer funded benefits, but haven't prompted any scorn from Trump for doing so. Jon Lovett, co-host of Pod Save America on Crooked Media, joins Jen Psaki to discuss.

"And yet He is the only true physician both of souls and bodies. On this account He often seizes this nature of ours wantoning in prosperity, and travailing with a fever of sins, and by want, and hunger, and death and other calamities and the rest of the medicines of which He knows, frees us from diseases. But the poor alone feel hunger, says one. But He does not chasten with hunger alone, but with countless other things. Him who is in poverty He has often corrected with hunger, but the rich and him who enjoys prosperity, with dangers, diseases, untimely deaths. For He is full of resources, and the medicines which He has for our salvation are manifold."
[Saint John Chrysostom – IV-V Century AD; Antioch, Roman Empire/Comana, Eastern Roman Empire; aged 59-60, Archbishop; Church Father; Doctor of the Church; "golden-mouthed"] “4. This argument therefore let us maintain throughout, and let us apply it to the case of the subject lying before us. God gave a speech common to all. This is part of his loving kindness to men. They did not use the gift rightly, but they lapsed to utter folly. He took away again that which had been given. For if when they had one speech, they fell into so great folly, as to wish to build a tower to heaven: had they not immediately been chastised would they not have desired to lay hold on the height of heaven itself? For why? If indeed that were impossible for them, yet notwithstanding their impious thoughts are made out from their plan. All which things God foresaw, and since they did not use their oneness of speech rightly, he rightly divided them by difference of speech. And see with me, his lovingkindness. …More

"Chapter IX ~ OF THE INWARD WORKING OF GOD'S GRACE BEHOLD, this Eternal Love, which lives within the spirit, and with which it is united without means, gives its light and its grace to all the powers of the soul; and becomes thereby the cause of all the virtues. For the grace of God touches the highest powers of the soul, and from this touch there spring charity and the knowledge of truth, the love of all righteousness, the practice of the counsels of God according to discretion, freedom from images, the overcoming of all things without effort, and the death into the Unity through love."
[BLESSED JAN VAN RUYSBROEK – XIII-XIV Century AD; Ruisbroek, Holy Roman Empire/ Groenendael, Holy Roman Empire; aged 87-88, Mystic, Spiritual Writer, Doctor Divinus Ecstaticus] “Chapter VIII ~ SHOWING HOW THE INWARD MAN SHOULD EXERCISE HIMSELF, THAT HE MAY BE UNITED WITH GOD WITHOUT MEANS BUT now I will tell you how the inward man, who has health amidst all miseries, should feel himself to be one with God without means. When such a quickened man rises up, with his whole being and all his powers, and joins himself to God with lifegiving and active love, then he feels that his love is, in its ground, where it begins and ends, fruitive and without ground. If he then wishes to penetrate further, with his active love into that fruitive love: then, all the powers of his soul must give way, and they must suffer and patiently endure that piercing Truth and Goodness which is God's self. For, as the air is penetrated by the brightness and heat of the sun, and iron is penetrated by fire; so that …More
