By Bronson Winslow, The American Spectator – While neither the Republican Party nor the Democratic Party is specifically Christian, the Democratic Party alone is demonic. The Republican Party is far more responsive to Christian concerns, if for no other reason than Evangelical Christians and theologically conservative Catholics make up a much larger part of that party’s base than they do the Democratic Party… The Democratic Party is not just non-Christian but demonic because its two greatest idols are the grave evils of LGBTQ immorality (especially the multi-threat of transgenderism) and abortion.

By John Zmirak, The Stream – John Zmirak – So as an advocate for at risk children who might be subject to exploitation, do you think it would be in the best interests of those children for the U.S. Catholic bishops, U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops and its associated NGOs, such as Catholic Charities, to be subject to a RICO investigation by Trump’s Justice Department?…. Elizabeth Yore – I do think so. After 60 years of witnessing massive clergy abuse of children, vulnerable adults, boys, girls, seminarians, and the massive cover up by the bishops, they have no, credibility whatsoever. Nothing really has changed over the last 60 years, in my opinion.

Author Don Schwager, Servants of the Word – Matthew 5:43-48 – 43 “You have heard that it was said, `You shall love your neighbor and hate your enemy.’ 44 But I say to you, Love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you, 45 so that you may be sons of your Father who is in heaven; for he makes his sun rise on the evil and on the good, and sends rain on the just and on the unjust. 46 For if you love those who love you, what reward have you? …

By Aaron Kheriaty, MD, Catholic Exchange – In the first part of this series I introduced the brief prayer, doce me passionem Tuam—teach me Your suffering—a simple aspiration to our Lord that we can repeat many times a day. I explained how this prayer turns our gaze away from our own sufferings and towards the suffering of Christ, which, paradoxically, can liberate us from our own anguish… The Christian Faith offers the only fully compelling answer to the problem of evil—the age-old question of why an all-powerful, all-good, all-knowing God would permit so much human pain. ….

By Regis Martin, Crisis Magazine – Not the least of the many astonishing things to be said about Augustine is the fact that it should have taken him nine years before he finally broke free of the Manichean chains that bound him. No less astonishing, of course, is the fact that it took less than a minute after hearing the singsong voice of the little child telling him to “Take it and read, take it and read” to turn his life completely around for the sake of Christ and His Church.

By David G Bonagura, Jr., The Catholic Thing – “Drain the swamp!” is one of today’s more passionate political cries. The swamp, of course, is Washington, D.C., which oozes all sorts of contaminations: slimy politicians, rancid deals, foggy lies, sink-holes of money, hazy procedures. The people demand a champion, a DOGE, to clean it up: to drain its political and social sins so the government can function smoothly, and America can be great again… “Swamp theory” assumes that the governmental system is broken and that a properly functioning reform will bring in a kind of  political salvation. There is some truth in this contention, but Catholics must avoid seeing “the system,” and not sinful individuals, as the real problem.

By John Daniel Davidson, The Federalist – A major survey on the religious landscape of America was just released by Pew Research Center, and what it reveals about the decline of Christianity should alarm every American, whether or not one is Christian… Why should the de-Christianization of America worry us? Because, as I’ve argued before, if America loses the Christian faith from which our system of government is derived, we will lose everything that makes America what it is. All of the rights and freedoms we enjoy, the rule of law, the checks and balances on government power, all of that will disappear.

By John Lavenburg, The Catholic Herald – Following a proclamation from Oregon Governor Tina Kotek that March 10 would henceforth be “Abortion Provider Appreciation Day”, Archbishop Alexander Sample of Oregon lamented the move as a moment “when you realise just how far culture can drift from reality”… “The idea that those who make a living (by) ending innocent, unborn life should be publicly honoured, thanked, applauded – this isn’t just moral confusion, it’s something deeper,” said Archbishop Sample in a March 13 pastoral teaching on the sanctity of life… “A kind of spiritual blindness so thick that what should be self-evident – the sheer wonder and worth of a human life – is obscured entirely”

By McKenna Snow, LifeNews – In response to the satanic worship ritual scheduled to take place outside the Kansas State Capitol March 28, Archbishop Joseph F. Naumann of Kansas City is praying for the organizers’ conversion, stating, “Satan is powerless against Jesus Christ.”… Archbishop Naumann has spoken out against the planned sacrilege, emphasizing that it harms the human soul.

By Jules Gomes, The Stream – Prominent lay Catholics are calling on Vice President J.D. Vance to investigate the U.S. bishops under the provisions of the Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act (RICO) — a law first used to prosecute the Mafia in the 1970s… “We request that a RICO investigation be undertaken into how the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops (USCCB) dispersed funds received from USAID,” a cohort of Catholic scholars, journalists, and victims of clerical sex abuse wrote in a March 8 letter to Vance, who also is Catholic.

By Gene Thomas Gomulka, Blog John Eighteen Thirty Seven – Rachel Mastrogiacomo, whose satanic sexual abuse was covered up Cardinal Robert McElroy, travelled from Louisiana to Washington, D.C. to confront McElroy on the occasion of his 11 March 2025 installation as the Archbishop of Washington. Both mainstream and Catholic media outlets were contacted beforehand and made aware of why abuse victims like Rachel and abuse victims’ advocates strongly objected when Pope Francis made McElroy a cardinal, and when it was announced that he would replace Cardinal Wilton Gregory as the Archbishop of Washington.

By Bishop Joseph E. Strickland, Bishop Emeritus, LifeSiteNews – As shepherds of Christ’s flock, bishops are called to be vigilant in safeguarding the integrity of the Church and the souls entrusted to our care. It is with deep concern and a profound sense of duty that I address the appointment of Cardinal Robert McElroy to Washington, D.C., a decision that raises serious moral and pastoral questions… The grave scandals of abuse and their cover-up have wounded the Body of Christ, and trust in the hierarchy has been deeply shaken. …

By Dr. R. Jared Staudt, Catholic World Report – God has appointed us to bear fruit. In the spiritual life, it can be hard to judge whether we are blossoming or wilting, so often trapped in isolated thoughts and feelings. Jesus, however, stands as our model, and he let us know how we could evaluate his own life, coming to know him through his works: If I am not doing the works of my Father, then do not believe me; but if I do them, even though you do not believe me, believe the works, that you may know and understand that the Father is in me, and I am in the Father. (Jn 10:37–38)

Author Don Schwager, Servants of the Word – Matthew 5:20-26 – 20 For I tell you, unless your righteousness exceeds that of the scribes and Pharisees, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven. 21 “You have heard that it was said to the men of old, `You shall not kill; and whoever kills shall be liable to judgment.’ 22 But I say to you that every one who is angry with his brother shall be liable to judgment; whoever insults his brother shall be liable to the council, and whoever says, `You fool!’ shall be liable to the hell of fire. ….

By Teresa Yanaros, Catholic Exchange – Among many, the ideologies of new age, new thought, and even the occult evoke associations of mental health and body-spirit integration. They’re seen as methods leading to being “in tune” with the earth or the universe. Many recognize the level of spiritualism associated with the ideologies but deem them good or helpful; to others, they’re harmless. This perception is far from the truth. The truth is that each of these spiritual movements serve to idolize the self and mask harmful practices that endanger the health of the soul.
