Got Met Opera on Demand, convinced my kids to watch Das Rheingold with me by showing them What’s Opera, Doc, and telling them it’s the German version of Lord of the Rings. Halfway through, and they love it.

@jjimenezlema I don’t think you could go wrong with Athens or Dubrovnik! Great food and history, esp Athens, and less expensive. Dubrovnik might be crazy crowded, so I’d vote Athens if you haven’t been.

Christians in Nigeria need our help. Nearly every day, they face horrific acts of violence simply for living out their faith. The world is watching, and the time is now to take decisive action and end this persecution. 👇

🇳🇬 UPDATE: Scores of people are feared dead after multiple explosions rocked Maiduguri, the capital of Borno State, on Monday evening, March 16, 2026. The blasts reportedly began around 7:20 p.m. local time, striking several locations across the city, including Monday Market, Kaleri, the Post Office area, and near the University of Maiduguri Teaching Hospital (UMTH) gate. Many people were injured in the explosions and have been rushed to hospitals for treatment. At one of the blast sites, the body of a suspected suicide bomber was reportedly recovered as security agencies began investigations. Police sources say the attacks are suspected to have been carried out by terrorists linked to Boko Haram or Islamic State West Africa Province (ISWAP), possibly using improvised explosive devices (IEDs) and suicide bombers, a pattern consistent with previous insurgent attacks in the region. Security has been heightened across Maiduguri as authorities move to secure affected areas and determine the full scale of casualties and damage. More details are expected as investigations continue.

🇳🇬 JUST IN: A second bomb explosion has been reported in Maiduguri, Borno State, with the blast occurring between Monday Market and the Post Office area, further escalating tension across the city. Preliminary information suggests that the earlier explosion near the University of Maiduguri Teaching Hospital (UMTH) may have been a follow-up attack deliberately timed to target emergency responders and civilians rushing to assist victims of the first blast. Witnesses report scenes of panic, with smoke rising from affected areas as security personnel move in to secure the locations. Casualty figures are not yet officially confirmed, but injured victims are reportedly being evacuated for treatment.

🧵THREAD: Tomorrow, Scotland's Parliament votes on one of the most consequential laws in its history. The Assisted Dying for Terminally Ill Adults Bill is catastrophic for all vulnerable to the lie of 'assisted' killing. Scotland, don't rush this fatally flawed bill through.

Chair Hartzler: "Iran persecuted Christians, Baha'is, & Sunni Muslims by surveilling, arresting, torturing, & killing them. This includes torturing Christians in prison, violent home raids targeting Baha'i women, & executing at least 5 Sunni Muslims for their religious identity.”

Three years ago today my own little tornado blew into my life. Unlike the one all of DC is freaking out about right now, this one is the greatest blessing I could ever imagine. He is the center of my world and now I know true love. Happy birthday to my angel. 👦🏼🌪️

At OLR Greenville our parish school offers what we call a "faithful family scholarship". Parishioners pay tuition for their two oldest kids and all the rest come free. We're making it possible for big Catholic families to afford Catholic education.

It's true, blue states have a higher cost of living, but they have higher household incomes, too. Accounting for the higher cost of living, the unweighted household income gap goes from $17.4k ($16.6k w/o D.C.) in favor of blue states to $9.4k ($8.9k) in their favor.

So true. I tell people that God has opened the book of Nigeria’s atrocities and obsession with shedding innocent blood, and He’s not about to close it until there’s a permanent solution. A new phase has just begun and things are beginning to take shape in this, arguably final phase. Thanks for all you do brother

‼️Christians in Nigeria are still facing extreme acts of violence for their faith —— including mass killings, abductions, and the destruction of churches. International pressure has never been more vital and action is urgently needed to end this horrific persecution. 👇

🚨 BREAKING: A Brazilian court has DISMISSED all charges of "transphobia" against Isadora Borges, a veterinary student who previously faced a potential 10 year prison sentence, simply for stating biological facts in an @X comment. 🇧🇷 This is a promising WIN for freedom of speech in Brazil.
