Iranian Foreign Minister Seyed Abbas Araghchi used this term yesterday when describing Trump’s new plan to forcibly seize control of the Strait of Hormuz, known as “Project Freedom.” Events in Hormuz make clear that there’s no military solution to a political crisis. As talks are making progress with Pakistan’s gracious effort, the U.S. should be wary of being dragged back into quagmire by ill-wishers. So should the UAE. Project Freedom is Project Deadlock.

@Everyday for Life Canada The Israeli State is given a pass for "nukes" since it is the Zionist/Fascist pivot of the "Errors of Russia." Everyone of the Americans who voted for Trump and MAGA voted for this warmongering! Many American Catholics too! They are now getting what they voted for! Since the lust for violence goes far beyond the Zionist/Fascist/Bolshevik pivot it will not stop until after Russia is consecrated to the Immaculate Heart of Mary and Her Triumph occurs. Our Lady said, "many nations will be annihilated." We were warned! I voted for Our Lady of Fatima, not for this unholy alliance. And cui bono? Obviously the Russia/Sino/Islam faction of the NWO. East vs West baby!
Rev Gerardo Saco resigned from his appointment as Bishop of the Diocese of Tagbilaran in the Philippines. Pope Leo XIV appointed Rev. Saco on 25 March 2026, with the episcopal ordination scheduled for 26 May. On 5 May, Cebu Archbishop Alberto Uy announced that Leo XIV had accepted Rev Saco’s resignation. Rev Saco suddenly discovered a “change of heart” and “human limitations and inadequacies”. However, it is more likely that there is an undisclosed issue behind this decision. Choosing Bishops with Hidden Scandals Declining after papal appointment and before ordination used to be very rare in the Church. It has increased in the past decade as a side effect of deliberately appointing compromised or unsuitable candidates. In Argentina alone, Francis appointed three priests as bishops who then resigned from the episcopal consecration weeks later. Bishop Pascalis Syukur, who was reportedly in a romantic relationship with a woman and had fathered two children, accepted Pope Francis’s …More
Romania’s Prime Minister Ilie Bolojan is applauded after delivering his speech before a no-confidence vote on his cabinet during a plenary session of the Parliament in Bucharest, Screengrab youtube Romania’s parliament has voted to oust pro-EU Prime Minister Ilie Bolojan in a no-confidence motion, deepening political turmoil in the European Union and NATO member state bordering Ukraine. The motion, initiated jointly by the left-wing Social Democrats (PSD) and the right-wing Alliance for the Union of Romanians (AUR), received 281 votes in the 464-seat parliament. Bolojan’s liberal National Liberal Party (PNL) and its Save Romania Union (USR) allies were present but did not vote. The PSD, Romania’s biggest party, quit the government last month before teaming up with the AUR to file the motion. The decision drew sharp criticism that the Social Democrats were legitimising a surging right-wing force. “By joining with the AUR, the PSD has turned it into a significant political player, from …
Trump has just solemnly defined for MAGA Catholics that an alleged nuclear weapon for Iran is not Catholic and endangering Catholics (but real nuclear weapons for the Zionist state are OK and very Catholic): x.com/EricLDaugh/status/2051425272516260147
[Father Dom Lorenzo Scupoli – XVI-XVII Century AD; Otranto, Kingdom of Naples/Naples, Kingdom of Naples; (aged 79-80); Priest; Spiritual Writer] Chapter XI ~ Of some considerations which may incline the Will to seek to please God in all things Furthermore, to incline the will more readily to seek God's honor and glory in all things, always remember that, in many and various ways, He has first loved and honored you. In creation, by creating you out of nothing after His likeness, and all other creatures for your service. In Redemption, by sending, not an angel, but His only-begotten Son, to redeem you, not with the corruptible price of silver and gold, but with His Precious Blood, and by His most painful and ignominious death. Remember, that every hour, nay, every moment, He protects you from your enemies, fights for you by His grace, offers you continually, in the Sacrament of the Altar, His well-beloved Son, to be your food and your defense; are not all these tokens of the inestimable …More
"Much hard toil and trouble must, however, be undergone by the unpracticed, especially at the outset, when they resolve to amend their evil lives, and, renouncing the world and the flesh, to give themselves up to the love and service of Jesus Christ. For the opposition encountered by the superior will, from the continual warfare between the Divine and sensual will, is sharp and severe, and accompanied by acute suffering."
On 2 May, the Apostolic Nuncio to Poland, Antonio Filipazzi, conferred the Sacrament of Confirmation in the Roman rite on 50 young people close to the Institute of the Good Shepherd in Poland. The ceremony took place at the former Camaldolese church in Bielany, Warsaw. Afterwards, a Mass was celebrated, with the nuncio assisting from the throne. The Institute of the Good Shepherd has been working in the Archdiocese of Warsaw for 10 years. Archbishop Filipazzi is a papal loyalist. He praised Pope Francis in 2025 as an "untiring shepherd of the universal Church" who devoted "all his energy to the Church and to all humanity". #newsRokhnoszqy
Thank you @Chris Muniee I wanted to checkout your take on the PSYOP. I think adding those who are on "the eye of the republic" watchlist important also! Imagine my surprise when I got to the end of your article and you were suggesting "The PSYOP is the PSYOP!" I am watching that even now as we chat here online! Good article and if Catholics could get past the influencers they could see the landscape more clearly! God bless you!

'What You Must Do Now: Prepare for the Coming Storm I believe the only rational response is to prepare now, while there is still time. First, store diesel properly with a biocide to prevent microbial growth, because diesel will become the most precious liquid on earth for farming and transport. Second, invest in alternative energy -- solar panels, battery storage, and even small wind turbines -- to reduce your dependence on a grid that is about to buckle. Third, secure your own food production: learn seed saving, plant a garden, and stockpile heirloom seeds. In my interview with Alex Mitchell, we discussed how even small plots can yield enough to feed a family if you plant densely and save seeds each season. The famine and depression projected for late 2026 and 2027 are not inevitable if individuals take action now. Governments cannot help you; they are the ones who started this war and are now lying about its consequences. Follow independent sources like NaturalNews.com and …More
[Saint Bridget of Sweden/ Heliga Birgitta; XIV Century AD: aged 69-70; Uppland, Sweden/Rome, Papal States; Widow, Mystic; Spiritual Writer; Founder; Patroness of Europe] Chapter 57 ~ The words of our Lord to the bride about how he is loathsome and despicable food for the souls of Christians, and how the world, instead, is loved and found to be delightful by them, and about the terrifying judgment that is executed over such people. The Son of God spoke to his bride: “Christians are now acting towards me as the Jews acted towards me. The Jews drove me out of the temple and had a complete will to kill me, but since my hour had not yet come, I escaped from their hands. Christians act towards me in the same way now. They drive me out of their temple (that is, out of their soul, which should be my temple) and they would gladly want to kill me if they could. I am like rotten and stinking flesh in their mouths. I seem, to them, to be like a man who utters lies, and they do not care about me at …More

Chapter XIX ~ Pains of Purgatory — St. Magdalene de Pazzi and Sister Benedicta — St. Gertrude — Blessed Margaret Mary and Mother de Montoux. We read in the Life of St. Magdalene de Pazzi that one of her sisters, named Maria-Benedicta, a Religious of eminent virtue, died in her arms. During her agony she saw a multitude of angels, which surrounded her with a joyful air, waiting until she should breathe forth her soul, that they might bear it to the Heavenly Jerusalem ; and at the moment she expired, the saint saw them receive the soul under the form of a dove, the head of which was of a golden hue, and disappear with her. Three hours later, watching and praying near the remains, Magdalene knew that the soul of the deceased was neither in Paradise nor Purgatory, but in a particular place where, without suffering any sensible pain, she was deprived of the sight of God. The following day, whilst Mass was being celebrated for the soul of Maria-Benedicta, at the Sanctus Magdalene was again …More
"Until now," replied the good Master, "this sister has been worthy to contemplate my glorified humanity only, and to enjoy the sight of my five wounds, in recompense for her tender devotion to the mystery of the Holy Eucharist ; but unless numerous suffrages are offered in her favour, she cannot yet be admitted to the beatific vision, on account of some slight defects in the observation of her holy rules."
