The Problem Is the Banana on the Wall, by John Horvat

By John Horvat, The Imaginative Conservative - ... (a) recent event in NY City in which the renowned Sotheby’s auction house sold a 2019 art piece dubbed “Comedian” by Maurizio Cattelan. The work consisted of a fresh banana duct-taped to the wall... within five minutes, the item sold for $5.2 million plus auction house fees, which came to a total of $6.2 million...

Progressive Bishop Laments Catholic Voter Support for Donald Trump, by Thomas D. Williams, Ph.D.

By Thomas D. Williams, Ph.D., Breitbart - Kentucky Bishop John Stowe has expressed his “dismay” over the overwhelming Catholic voter support for Donald Trump, insisting the U.S. Bishops should have warned Americans about the “danger” of the election... “I find it disappointing that our Church did not speak out more forcefully about the danger of this election,” the bishop stated, suggesting that the bishops’ conference should update its voting guide, which currently places too much emphasis on the issue of abortion.
