By Danielle Chaffin, The Federalist - Thirty people died in 17 semi-truck crashes caused by noncitizen commercial truck drivers in 2025, according to the Department of Transportation. That number is almost certainly an undercount. Prior to 2025, the immigration status of a commercial truck driver was mostly not recorded in crash reports, court filings, or news coverage. The national conversation focuses on the truck driver at fault for the latest accident, but rarely goes deeper.

By Fr. Paul D. Scalia, The Catholic Thing - Philip Neri had the custom of rising late at night or in the first hours of morning, making his way through the sleeping city of Rome, outside the city walls, to the Basilica of Saint Sebastian. There he would descend beneath the church, to the ancient catacombs, where the first Christians of Rome met for Mass, where so many martyrs slept. In that sacred place he would spend time in prayer.

It especially views its 13th- through 15th-century forms as compatible with faith, where most of its works were grounded in the dignity of the human person created in God’s image (imago Dei).

The center of the city had the dirty face of the outskirts, and Philip would go and get a small room, in San Girolamo in via Giulia.
