Gaming The 2024 Campaign, by Victor Davis Hanson

By Victor Davis Hanson, American Greatness - Will the left unleash another late-season October surprise like the 2016 Access Hollywood tape or the 2020 “Russian disinformation” laptop farce? And will these desperate gambits resonate or boomerang?... will the candidates in October and November resemble the candidates of today?.. Will Trump still be vibrant at 78? Will Biden still be upright at 81?... Will Biden’s feebleness still earn him sympathy, or at least respectful silence? Or will it devolve to the point that the public, worn out by his lapses, concludes that Joe Biden would not be able to keep any job in America—except the Presidency of the United States?

A Successor for the St. Gallen Mafia? by Julia Meloni

By Julia Meloni, OnePeterFive - Ultimately, Fernández’s thought is very similar to that of the late Cardinal Carlo Maria Martini, the leader of the St. Gallen mafia—the group of high-ranking churchmen who plotted to move the Church in a more Liberal direction. In Night Conversations, Martini emphasized fighting for social justice in the world without being too insistent on sexual matters or traditional pro-life topics... “I hope that sooner or later God redeems everyone. I am a great optimist,” Martini said in the book. He was discussing how “nobody knows if anyone is in hell” and how it was “easier” to think that someone like Hitler was “simply extinguished.”

Jesus’ Eucharistic Virtues, by Patrick O’Hearn

By Patrick O'Hearn, Catholic Exchange - Following His Passion, Death, and Resurrection, Jesus could have reigned exclusively in Heaven at the right hand of His Father. And yet, Jesus also wanted to dwell on earth in the Holy Eucharist until the end of time at the right hand of His brother: you and me. It was as if Jesus preferred our human heart to the perfect bliss and love of His Father, though we know this not to be the case. It would seem as if Jesus is a fool to dwell in the Holy Eucharist after being scorned and murdered by the ones He loved.
