@eamonnconway It’s amazing how this Bishop, brimming with pride, openly displays his spiritual flaw, seeking and reveling in human respect and access to power. Even pagans recognize it, yet he is blind to it.

I am trying to work out how the recent mockery of Christ at the White House Prayer service isn’t worthy of the same condemnation as made of that awful scene at the opening of the Paris Olympics. If anything, the scandal to Christians and all people of good will is greater.

@AnthonyFormic13 @Harrisbro777 The US has taught the world that power trumps law. They are learning

@Harrisbro777 Iran doesn’t own the straits. Other countries also border it. It’s considered international waters and free navigation. Threats to shipping are merely another word for piracy, and will not be tolerated

🚨 IRAN JUST OFFERED EUROPE A HORMUZ DEAL. YOU HAVE NO IDEA WHAT THEY JUST TRIGGERED. 🚨 On the surface: Iran offered the EU transit access through the Strait of Hormuz. Sounds like a small diplomatic move. Standard geopolitics. It is not. This is a goddamn financial nuclear bomb. Let that sink in. 💀 The Hormuz Strait carries 20% of ALL the world's oil consumption 💀 Europe's energy bill jumped $16.2 BILLION in just 30 days of war 💀 Natural gas in Europe is up 100%. Oil up 60%. Diesel at $200/barrel 💀 Dollar reserves have already fallen from 70% to 56.9% in 25 years 💀 Iran joined BRICS in 2024. Russia banned dollar transactions. Gold hit $5,500/oz ⚠️ If Europe takes this deal, they pay in euros — not dollars ⚠️ One major non-dollar oil deal is all it takes to show the world it CAN be done Do you understand the scale of what's happening? ⚠️ The petrodollar is the most powerful financial system ever created. Born in 1974. It forced every nation on Earth to hold dollars just to buy oil. That's the entire basis of US financial dominance. Not strength. Not trust. OIL. ⚠️ If that system cracks — BRICS accelerates, Gulf states reconsider, dollar demand collapses, and America can no longer fund its $34 trillion debt on easy terms. The US doesn't lose a battle. It loses the WAR — the financial one it's been winning since 1974. ⚠️ ECB board member Panetta said it on April 2: "Even if the Iran war ends, the damage has been done." Deutsche Bank called the Iran war a "catalyst" for yuan replacing the petrodollar. They're showing you a war about nuclear weapons and regional security. They're NOT showing you that the REAL war is over who gets to print the world's reserve currency. Here's the logic — follow it carefully: → Iran blocks Hormuz for the US. Opens it for EU with a deal. → EU, desperate and bleeding, seriously considers taking the deal. → Deal gets done in euros or yuan. Not dollars. → Every country watching — BRICS, Global South, Gulf states — sees it happen. → "If the EU can bypass the dollar, so can we." → Dollar demand falls. Reserve share collapses. US inflation rises. → You didn't just lose a trade route. You lost the dollar's 50-year monopoly on global trust. If America is so powerful and the dollar is so safe, why is the EU considering a deal with the country America is bombing? If Western unity is so solid, why did 40 countries meet to reopen Hormuz and achieve absolutely nothing? Complete silence. This is no longer just a Middle East war. This is a direct attack on the petrodollar — the system that powers the entire American empire. Prepare accordingly. 🚨🚨🚨 This post is being throttled. Like + RT to keep it alive. ⚠️

@BishopBarron We see how even Catholic Bishops succumb to the temptation to seek human respect. He is brimming with pride among those responsible for an unjust war and a woman who likens Trump to Jesus. Not only the political class, but the clerical class must be re-ordered to the good

Grateful to have been invited to the White House this afternoon for a luncheon with religious leaders, where I offered an Easter prayer. Even in the halls of power, the hope of the Resurrection is proclaimed.

@disclosetv This is a really good sign. In other words, what they’re about to do over there is opposed by the actual professionals

@TheLastHopeUSA @MarioNawfal It was fully open before the attack 😂

@MarioNawfal Trump’s right — strength gets results without endless UN drama. Look, the Strait’s already opening up through smart routes. Under Trump, it’ll stay fully open and flowing freely. No more Iranian toll booths. America First means real leverage.

🚨🇴🇲🇸🇦🇦🇪🇮🇷 Someone just found a way around Iran's toll booth... Three tankers loaded with Saudi and Emirati crude and LNG exited the Persian Gulf today through an unconventional route hugging Oman's Musandam coastline, completely bypassing Iran's checkpoint between Larak and Qeshm islands. Satellite imagery confirmed it. No spoofing. Real ships, real cargo, real breakthrough. These are the first fully insured, sanctions-compliant supertankers to leave the Gulf since the war started on February 28th. Four million barrels of crude on two ships alone. The route tells the whole story. Oman, which has quietly maintained relationships with both Iran and the West throughout this war, appears to have brokered a safe passage corridor through its own territorial waters. Iran either agreed to let it happen or couldn't stop it. If this corridor holds, it changes the entire economic calculus of the war. Gulf states can start moving oil again without paying Iran's toll or waiting for a UN resolution that Russia and China just blocked. The chokehold that gave Tehran its strongest leverage starts loosening without a single shot being fired. Three ships is a trickle. Normal traffic is 75-85 tankers a day. But every flood starts with a trickle, and energy markets are watching these three vessels like the world depends on it. Source: @TankerTrackers, ESA Satellite Imagery

@wcmclaa @TheStaad He’s there because he’s a Catholic Bishop willing to stand next to a woman who says that Trump is Christ and is a dispensationalist. Would John the Baptist promote this type of “responsible representation” of the Catholic faith?

@TheStaad Bishop Barron models how responsible public representation of the Christian faith works. That's why he's there and his critics are on social media.

The Catholic bishop standing off to the side while the lady heretic leads public prayer in front of the President is a perfect illustration of the sad state of our nation

@JnglJourney @BowesChay How much does her husband earn?

A woman earning $60,000 annually says her income is too high to qualify for medical assistance but too low to cover her daughter's care costs. Is the system designed to keep people down?

@barnes_law @TulsiGabbard She already lost her honor by not speaking out about a senseless war

If @TulsiGabbard doesn't resign, she will forever be seen as a phony who betrayed her supporters. There is nothing good left to get done w/ this administration. Time to keep her honor, and resign.

@Starship717 @CollinRugg The ISL lobby pushed her forward. Same as with all his appointments

@CollinRugg I had no clue she had a “personal friendship” with Swalwell…how the hell did she even have a job in this administration if people knew she was “friends” with a guy like Swalwell???!?!!!

NEW: Pam Bondi was fired, in part, because President Trump believed she had tipped off Eric Swalwell, according to the Daily Mail. Trump reportedly believes Bondi had tipped off Swalwell about the FBI's effort to share investigative documents about his relationship with an alleged Chinese spy. "The FBI was preparing a cache of documents on Swalwell's relationship with Christine Fang," the Daily Mail reports. "She's intervening in those matters. The White House wasn't pleased she was intervening due to her personal friendship with Swalwell," a source told the Daily Mail.

@interbellica I don’t care how he feels about it. The vote was registered for you and he being silly fools

@Joe_Parisi I'm sure he is devastated

Boomers claim they never had it easy when their job applications looked like this:

How astute of them

She buried her child who was killed in a US/Israeli strike in Iran. No one can truly understand the pain these families are going through.

@based_yeoman @mi123chael @imetatronink I assume nothing. Both sides have conditions that won’t be met.

@Joe_Parisi @mi123chael @imetatronink You assume the condition will be accepted?

Whether the US leaves now or later, Iran has achieved a decisive and irreversible strategic victory. The US will never reclaim its bases in the Persian Gulf region, and they will never again be able to exert control over the Strait of Hormuz. And the Arab sheikdoms are doomed.

@MAGAWEAVER @EricLDaugh Keep asking questions, you’ll get there

@EricLDaugh This is all great news! My only issue is how are they able to keep control of the strait if they are this weak? What are they using to control it?

🚨 WOW! The U.S. has absolutely INSANE air superiority over Iran So much that we are flying B-52 Stratofortresses in WITH EASE 🔥 GEN CAINE: “We’ve hit over 11,000 targets. With growing air superiority, we’ve launched the first B-52 OVERLAND missions!”

¿Se han dado cuenta del RIDÍCULO que especialmente estos días hacen judíos y protestantes al intentar enseñar teología sagrada a un CATÓLICO? Cómo será su desesperación por envenenar nuestra doctrina que han llegado al COLMO de querer enseñar a hacer leche... a las vacas.
